Chapter 338 Isn’t she beautiful?
Li Yu was very satisfied with Wu Ling'er's arrangement. Although he didn't know why Wu Ling'er and others wanted to kill Hu Qian, he didn't want to expose the fact. After all, this was the emperor's territory, and the king's law would not tolerate it!
Li Yu was about to turn around and go into the room, but he saw Wu Linger quickly walk up to him and whispered:
"follow me!"
Li Yu was stunned! He shook his head helplessly, and followed her with his head down unwillingly, like a child who had made a mistake.
Qi Biao and others were also somewhat curious, and followed closely behind Li Yu. Wu Ling'er turned around and glared at them, frightening them so much that they quickly returned to their rooms. But after all, Liu Hai was so curious that he could not help but sneak to the window of Wu Ling'er's room, only to find that Huang Guizhi was already standing under the windowsill, tiptoeing to look inside. Seeing Liu Hai, he was startled! He immediately said "hush" to Liu Hai! Liu Hai understood, and immediately tiptoed to the windowsill, imitating Huang Guizhi's way, and looked into the room!
However, there was nothing to see except a window! He looked at Huang Guizhi in surprise, only to see that Huang Guizhi had already put his ear against the window!
Wu Linger led Li Yu into her room without saying anything, just staring at him coldly. Li Yu was so frightened that he felt helpless. Finally, he couldn't help but smile and asked:
"Ling'er! What's the matter with you calling me here?"
"Haha! What's the matter? Don't you know it yourself?"
Wu Linger sneered.
"You are...you asked me to come, how would I know?"
Li Yu spread his hands helplessly.
Wu Linger looked at Li Yu with disdain and said:
"You don't know? I didn't expect you to be so good at pretending!"
"Pretend? What am I pretending to be?"
Li Yu's face was full of grievance.
Wu Linger stared at Li Yu for a while, then said slowly:
"Isn't she beautiful?"
"Who? Who are you talking about?..."
Li Yu said in astonishment. But for some reason, his heart was beating fast! Of course he knew who she was talking about, but he just pretended not to know!
Wu Linger's eyes widened when she heard this! She couldn't help but raise her hand, but she didn't put it down. She took a deep breath, calmed down her anger, and asked:
"How did you two meet? What is your relationship?"
Li Yu knew that if he continued to pretend to be confused, Wu Ling'er would probably get really angry! He immediately pretended to be enlightened and said:
"Oh! You are talking about her! Her name is Lu Junlan, from the Qiyun Sect..."
He then briefly recounted the process of meeting Lu Junlan and their experiences in the secret realm. Of course, the beautiful parts were omitted, and he finally said:
"If we talk about relationship, we can only be considered acquaintances at best!"
"Haha! An acquaintance? Would an acquaintance who is a princess be willing to come and kill someone for you late at night? Would an acquaintance leave you a love letter?"
Wu Linger couldn't help but sneer.
"What? Kill someone for me? Love letter?"
Li Yu couldn't help but be stunned!
"Humph! Why do you think we want to kill Hu Qian? Are we all crazy?"
Wu Linger snorted coldly.
"Yes! I really want to ask you, why did you attack Hu Qian? Although this man is indeed a bit annoying, his crime does not deserve the death penalty, right?"
Li Yu asked hurriedly.
"Not guilty enough to die? Letting him die like this is too easy for him! People who sell out their masters for personal gain like him should be cut into pieces!"
Wu Linger said grimly.
"What? What did you say?"
Li Yu was shocked!
"Hu Qian not only sold you to this princess, he also sold you to Hua Zirong! Do you think he should be killed?"
Wu Linger gritted her teeth.
"Betray me? What do I have to betray?"
Li Yu asked in confusion.
"Golden Wood and Spiritual Crystal Fruit!"
Wu Linger immediately spoke word by word.
Li Yu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard this! If this secret is leaked out, no matter whether the golden wood and the spirit crystal are on him or not, he will never be able to live in peace! However, even though Hu Qian was killed, how should Hua Zirong deal with it? He can't be killed as well, right? Hua Zirong is not Hu Qian! Killing him is not difficult, but how to deal with the aftermath after killing him is a difficult problem!
"A princess, a monk, is not interested in the golden wood and the spiritual crystal, and wants to help you get rid of the evil! What else can she leave behind if not a love letter?"
Wu Linger stared at Li Yu and asked.
"I……"
Li Yu was speechless for a moment!
Huang Guizhi, who had been eavesdropping outside the window, couldn't help but mutter:
"Isn't it okay to just take out the love letter and read it?"
Wu Linger glanced out the window, and then stared at Li Yu intently.
Li Yu didn't want to take it out, but he felt guilty! He was afraid that Lu Junlan would say something that shouldn't be said in the letter. But at this moment, he was in a dilemma and could only take out the letter. He immediately opened the envelope and read the letter quickly, and he felt relieved! At the same time, he felt a little disappointed! He immediately handed the letter to Wu Ling'er and said:
"Look for yourself and see if it's a love letter!"
How could the subtle changes in Li Yu's expression and movements escape Wu Ling'er's eyes? Seeing Li Yu so generous, she knew that the letter did not involve any private affairs between men and women. She immediately curled her lips and said disdainfully:
"Why should I read the letter someone else gave you? You should keep it and read it carefully!"
Seeing that Wu Ling'er didn't read it, Li Yu immediately put away the letter and took Wu Ling'er away. As they walked, he said:
"Let's go! Let's go find the master!"
The moment Li Yu put away the letter, Wu Linger felt a little regretful! Maybe this was just Li Yu's plan! He deliberately appeared generous to dispel her suspicion!
"Second brother, go get eldest brother, and we'll go to the master to discuss this together!"
Li Yu shouted out the window again. Liu Hai realized that he and Huang Guizhi had already been discovered by Li Yu, but he just didn't speak out! He smiled awkwardly and turned away.
Fairy Meihua was also full of curiosity about the masked man today, but she couldn't lean on the window like Liu Hai and Huang Guizhi! But her mind was always paying attention to the movements in Wu Linger's room. When she learned that the masked man was actually the princess of the dynasty, she was also shocked! When she heard that Hu Qian had secretly sold the golden wood and the spiritual crystal fruit to them, she was also filled with righteous indignation! She wished she could kill Hu Qian herself!
When Wu Ling'er and Li Yu rushed to her room, she was still furious! Seeing Li Yu and the others enter the room, the Plum Blossom Fairy angrily said to Wu Ling'er:
"Ling'er! Since you know what Hu Qian did, why didn't you tell me? If the princess hadn't appeared, could you have killed Hu Qian? You are overestimating your abilities! Isn't this too frivolous? Have you ever thought about it? If Hu Qian escapes, aren't you afraid that he will be angry and tell the world?"
