Chapter 40: Fog is not fog
After explaining what happened during Nianfan's coma in a few words.
For a moment, Nian Fan fell into silence.
After all, it feels really uncomfortable to treat people as bait.
“…How long have I been in a coma?”
After a while.
Nian Fan finally spoke slowly.
"Three days."
Li Huan said in a deep voice.
"Three days?! My master has been in a coma for so long?"
Nian Fan immediately looked surprised when he heard this.
"Don't you know that Liu Daozhen's sword almost pierced your heart veins? In fact, if you can still live now, you are already lucky!"
Li Huan snorted coldly.
"If you hadn't had your physical condition, you wouldn't have been able to wake up for three months, not to mention three days."
"What does it mean to be lucky to live? I can only avoid Liu Dao's fatal sword at the critical moment with my strength..."
Nian Fan curled his lips and said.
"At the same time, have you been taking care of me all the time during my coma?"
"Ha! If it weren't for the fact that the Dashiru attached great importance to you, would you think I would be willing to take care of you?"
Li Huan said expressionlessly.
"Do you know how many big things I missed during your coma!"
"Big thing?!What big thing?"
Nian Fan keenly smelled the unusual smell in Li Huan's words.
"This is a long story..."
Li Huan frowned and shook his head and spoke slowly.
Time went back three days ago.
After Li Huan left with Nian Fan.
Dou Yao, who successfully captured Liu Daozhen, immediately launched an assault interrogation. At the same time, the Demon-Superior Office blocked the Fourth Prince's mansion as soon as possible. Xia Mingyuan, who was originally in the villa in the suburbs of the city, appeared in the palace at any time and had secret talks with the emperor of the dynasty overnight.
At dawn.
The Demon Suppression Department, who was instructed by the imperial palace, had no scruples to break into the Fourth Prince's mansion, but it caught people off guard. The Fourth Prince actually committed suicide due to fear of crime, while Su Chang, the steward of the Fourth Prince, disappeared!
When the Demon-Suppressing Department launched an action against the Fourth Prince.
The Imperial City Division, who was also instructed by the secret decree, cooperated with the Imperial City Army to open the imperial city formation. Without permission, no one was allowed to enter and exit the imperial city without permission, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.
In three days.
The entire imperial city was in a panic and tense atmosphere. From time to time, fierce battles suddenly broke out everywhere in the imperial city, so that ordinary people hid at home and did not dare to go out.
Xia Mingyuan was obviously well prepared this time, and with Liu Daozhen's breakthrough, he opened up the situation, and under Xia Mingyuan's plan, he staged a scene of catching a turtle in the jar.
period.
I don’t know how many demons hiding in the imperial city were exposed.
Faced with the Demon-Suppressing Division who were dispatched in full swing and the worshipers of various sects in the imperial city, these demons had no power to resist.
The so-called pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud.
The more demons the Demon-Suppressing Division killed or captured, the more demon organization network lurking in the imperial city gradually emerged, and followed the clues and achieved great results easily.
"…In this way, the Demon-Suppressing Department is still taking action?"
After listening to Li Huan's words, Nian Fan said in a daze.
"Of course, if I had to take care of your relationship, I would have joined the massive search for demons in the city."
Li Huan said coldly.
“…I’m really sorry.”
Nian Fan curled his lips unconsciously, and instead continued to focus on the Demon Suppression Department's actions.
"After that, our Grand Secretary played a big game of chess. Without any warning, he suddenly swept across the demons lurking in the imperial city with thunder and trembling pounds..."
"In fact, the operation of the Demon Suppressing Department was not as simple as it seems. According to the information I have, when the Demon Suppressing Department was searching for demons, the major sects carried out purging operations. This was obviously the result of the Grand Secretary's leadership and the major sects' discussion in advance..."
Li Huan sighed softly.
"It seems that our Dasiru learned from the beginning that the existence of half-demons like Liu Daozhen!"
Nian Fan suddenly felt thoughtful when he heard this.
"Yes, the Grand Secretariat has always been like he has never heard of it, allowing the demons to threaten and play with them. Unfortunately, the demons never thought that all this was the result of the Grand Secretariat's deliberate action. A key blow at a critical moment completely severely damaged the devil's careful planning. This is the real intention of the Grand Secretariat..."
Li Huan couldn't help but exclaim.
"By the way, is there any result in the deaths of the Third Prince and the Chief Grand Secretary?"
Nian Fan changed his mind.
"I have no idea."
Li Huan shook his head very simply and said.
"After all, I am not the person in charge of investigating this matter, not to mention that matters involving the royal family have always been top secrets within the Demon Sect. How could I easily know at my current level? But..."
"But what?!"
Nian Fan said hurriedly.
"But if we want to know the inside story, we only need to go to see Dashiru in person, and I believe Dashiru will tell us."
Li Huan said directly.
"Then what are we waiting for now? Let's go!"
Said.
Nian Fan forced himself to stand up and said.
"Your injury..."
Seeing this, Li Huan couldn't help frowning and said.
"Don't worry, as long as you can't die, I don't care about this injury at all!"
Nian Fan waved his hand and said lightly.
"Since you want to show off, let's do it."
Li Huan said lightly.
When Li Huan and Nian Fan went to see Xia Mingyuan together.
Xia Fan was still leisurely looking through books in the house as usual, but the lazy little cat who was usually lazy became scratched and became restless.
"...Bad villain, the imperial city is really lively now!"
The little cat thought for a long time but didn't know how to speak, and finally said something like this.
"These are theirs, what does it have to do with me? What? Do you want to participate in this fun? I don't mind at all..."
Xia Fan replied casually.
"No, no, I don't want to participate in this excitement..."
The little cat shook his head and said when he heard this.
Now the Demon-Suppressing Department is searching for demons throughout the city. If she jumped out at this time, she wouldn't know how to die.
Besides, if she doesn't feel that she is in danger, Xia Fan will rescue her.
Who made Xia Fan's attitude always mean that if you want to die, I wouldn't stop you, I would just watch it.
"Are you worried about your lady?"
Xia Fan suddenly said.
"How do you know?"
The little cat exclaimed subconsciously, and then said dejectedly.
"I know that I can't hide my thoughts from you."
"Don't worry, your lady will be fine. It can even be said that the current situation is exactly what your lady wants to see."
Xia Fan said with an intriguing smile.
"What's the meaning?!"
The little cat said in surprise and inconsolation.
Chapter completed!
