The entire inn was booked. Apart from the people from the Imperial Preceptor’s residence, no other staff in the entire hall came to disturb them.
However, Shen Yaowei and Huo Junhan slowly went down the stairs and could see everyone sitting at the table with serious expressions.
Qi Yuan sat at the table without moving his chopsticks. He heard the footsteps of the two of them and looked up at them. “The two of you came at the right time. After what happened last night, you’re already wanted.”
“Yeah, and it’s even specially marked on the wanted order. Master, they want to catch you alive no matter what, and they have ordered not to hurt you at all.” The Ghost General was also sitting at the table. He could recognize Huo Junhan’s identity through his aura and smiled obsequiously. “Could it be that Master is targeted by the people in the palace because you’re too handsome?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the other disciples of the Imperial Preceptor’s residence present also looked at Huo Junhan in unison, without exception. Looking at his peerless appearance, they actually felt that the Ghost General’s blind guess made sense.
At the same time, Huo Junhan glanced over. The aura around him was so cold that it could almost freeze people. “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.”
The Ghost General was as afraid as the Eight Trigrams just now. He shrank his neck like a huge quail and closed his mouth, not daring to say a word.
“No matter what, the fact that we’re wanted is already a sure bet, a shoo-in. If we continue to stay here, it’s hard to guarantee that we won’t be discovered. Therefore, I’ve decided to let you all end the mission in advance and leave the Ghost Capital immediately.” Qi Yuan’s expression was solemn. As he spoke, his gaze slowly swept across everyone.
Shen Yaowei acutely sensed that something was wrong. “May I ask Imperial Preceptor, what do you mean by ‘you all’? Could it be that the situation is so serious that Imperial Preceptor still plans to stay in the Ghost Capital?”
Everyone’s worried gaze landed on Qi Yuan.
“You guys leave first. I still have something very important to deal with,” Qi Yuan said slowly.
Huo Junhan brought Shen Yaowei to sit opposite Qi Yuan. He stared at him and asked, “What is it? Tell me clearly.”
There was a hint of pressure between the words.
Qi Yuan met Huo Junhan’s gaze and didn’t answer immediately.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was at a stalemate, Shen Yaowei’s gaze swept between the two of them.
This wasn’t the first time she had encountered this situation.
Just as Shen Yaowei had expected, Qi Yuan had never fought Huo Junhan head-on.
As expected, after a slight stalemate between the two of them, Qi Yuan looked away first and answered Huo Junhan’s question honestly.
“After entering the palace yesterday, in order to attract Dugu Aoyun’s attention, 1 had no choice but to attack the Era Tomb. It was also at that time that 1 discovered a large number of troops in the palace. They had already gathered a large number of troops and planned to attack the human world. This isn’t a small matter. I have to stay behind to stop them and cut off all connections between the ghost race and the human race.”
Yao Qingyi was slightly stunned. “Master, if the connection is severed, the ghost race will be in a completely sealed state. At that time, the ghost race will indeed not be able to go to the human world, but it will be very difficult for us to leave the ghost race’s territory again.”
“That’s right. It’s precisely because of this that 1 want you to leave this place in advance. At that time, I’ll be in charge of cutting off all connections here,” Qi Yuan said slowly..
