Chapter 1370: Arriving at the Assassin Alliance
Editor: Atlas Studios
Wei Qing said, “Xiahou Yi is not a person who waits for death. He sent someone to the Assassin Alliance and has already begun this plan… The current plan is to stop Xiahou Yi from controlling Heavenly Jade Hall and the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion.”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded solemnly. “I have a good relationship with the Grand Madam of the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion. There’s no time to lose. I’ll go look for her now. As for Heavenly Jade Hall…”
“I’ll go.”
The Palace Lord’s voice suddenly appeared behind Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Qing.
The two of them turned around and looked at her in the night.
“Mother.”
“Palace Lord.”
The two of them greeted each other.
The Palace Lord spent a large amount of internal energy to nourish the Ghost Concubine’s meridians. She looked a little haggard.
Su Xiaoxiao quickly walked up to her and looked at her with heartache. “Mother.”
The Palace Lord moved the corners of his lips. “I’m fine. I heard what you said just now. I’ll go look for Ji Minglou.”
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, “Mother, why don’t I go look for Hall Master Ji and you go see Madam Lou?”
The Palace Lord touched the top of her head. “You can’t persuade him.”
Wei Qing did not know about the relationship between the Palace Lord and Ji Minglou, but he could vaguely guess that something was amiss.
Wei Qing said, “Palace Lord, I’ll go with you.”
The Palace Lord looked at him steadily. “Stay. Your talent has to be used where it belongs.”
For the first time, Wei Qing saw the weight of trust in the eyes of a martial artist.
He immediately cupped his hands and bowed. “I accept the order!”
The Palace Lord looked at the boundless night. A breeze blew past, rustling her purple skirt.
“I’ve never left Thousand Mountain Island. If the Hundred Flowers Palace can survive this calamity this time, can you bring me out of the island to take a look?”
… .
In the dead of night.
The Saintess carried Su Xiaoxiao on her back and jumped up and down on the roof.
The cold wind blew.
Strangely, Su Xiaoxiao, who had been tossing and turning in bed, was a little sleepy.
No wonder Wei Xiaobao had to be coaxed to sleep…
As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, Su Xiaoxiao lay on the Saintess’s back and fell asleep, drooling.
The Saintess lightened her steps.
When they arrived at the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion, a shadow happened to come out of the side door.
The Saintess tapped her feet and jumped onto a big tree with Su Xiaoxiao on her back.
The shadow seemed to sense something and looked up warily.
A crow flapped its wings and flew away from the branch.
“So it’s a bird.”
The shadow left without looking back.
After the shadow completely left, Wuhu disguised as a little crow flew back to the branch and said to the Saintess, who had fused with the night, said, “Yes!Yes!”
There was nothing wrong with letting her wear black!
The Saintess hated black clothes.
–
After Lou Bufan passed away, his eldest son inherited the position of the Pavilion Master, and his eldest daughter-in-law became the new Madam of the Pavilion Master.
Not long after Madam Lou lay down, she closed her eyes and said calmly, “Since you’re here, why don’t you show yourself?”
Thud thud thud!
Wuhu knocked politely on the window… Uh, no, knocked on the window.
Madam Lou said, “Just come in.”
The Saintess opened the window and jumped in with Su Xiaoxiao on her back.
Wuhu flapped its wings and flew in.
Madam Lou knew this puppet and guessed who the person on her back was. As for the additional little crow, she didn’t care.
“Why did Second Young Madam come to visit at midnight?”
What responded to Madam Lou was a series of even breathing.
Madam Lou was speechless.
When Su Xiaoxiao woke up, the sky was already bright.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up.
“You’re awake?”
Madam Lou’s cold voice came from the side. “Is my bed good to sleep on?”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “I slept well.”
Madam Lou was speechless.
Su Xiaoxiao cleared her throat, lifted the blanket, and got out of bed. She smiled. “You’re too polite. You could have woken me up but let me sleep the entire night.”
Didn’t Madam Lou want to wake her?
It was a certain puppet that didn’t allow her to do so!
Madam Lou said indifferently, “Second Young Madam, I seem to have mentioned to you that our deal has long ended and we have nothing to do with each other.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m not here to make a deal with Madam this time. I’m doing you a favor on account of our previous deal.”
Madam Lou said, “Don’t put it so nicely. It’s not certain whose favor it is.”
The older, the spicier.
Su Xiaoxiao said without changing her expression, “The City Lord had established an heir before the accident. That person is not Xiahou Yi.”
Madam Lou’s expression did not change much.
Su Xiaoxiao was not surprised. It would be unreasonable for these people not to guess that Xiahou Yi had usurped the throne.
However, whether Xiahou Qing was the City Lord or Xiahou Yi was the City Lord, as long as it did not harm their interests, they did not care.
Madam Lou said calmly, “The position of the Pavilion Master has long been handed over to my son. He has his own decisions about the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion. It’s useless for you to look for me.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “What if… the Assassin Alliance, the Hundred Flowers Palace, and the Heavenly Jade Hall support the new City Lord at the same time? Madam, do you think the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion can deal with the three major sects?”
Madam Lou sneered. “Girl, do you think this is my first day in the martial world? If there are really three major sects behind you, why would you need to look for me?”
Su Xiaoxiao said neither servile nor overbearing, “To tell you the truth, I’m only reminding you because of the Slave Killer. Otherwise, what does the survival of the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion have to do with me? My brother is the next City Lord. After dealing with Xiahou Yi, those who should be rewarded would be rewarded. Likewise, those who should be killed will meet their fate. Without the Thousand Possibilities Pavilion on the island, there are many sects that want to replace it. That’s all I have to say. Take care, Madam!”
Madam Lou narrowed her eyes and looked at her back without looking back. She said, “I’ll give you two days at most. If you can’t get reinforcements from the Assassin Alliance at seven tomorrow, prepare a coffin for yourself.”
Su Xiaoxiao paused.
In that case, Xiahou Yi would attack the Hundred Flowers Palace tomorrow at five o’clock?
Wei Ting, you have to succeed.

After an entire night of bumps, Steward Chang was half dead.
Finally, they arrived at the foot of the Assassin Alliance.
Recently, the Assassin Alliance had increased their vigilance and sent many disciples to guard the foot of the mountain.
However, after Xiahou Yi became the City Lord, he only placed Steward Chang under house arrest and did not remove him from his position.
When Steward Chang showed the chief steward token of the City Lord Manor, the disciples of the Assassin Alliance immediately brought him and Cang Lang up the mountain.
On the other side, Wei Ting and the others were not so lucky.
The few of them stood at the foot of the cold mountain and looked at the thorny cliff, feeling the deep aura of death.
The corners of Wei Liulang’s mouth twitched. “No way… How wary are they of us?”
Ghostfear asked, “Did you go up from here previously?”
Wei Liulang nodded. “Yes, we climbed up from here and carried Su Xuan down from here.”
However, they could not longer climb up. The thorns on the mountain wall were more than a hundred feet tall. Before they were halfway up, there would only be bones left.
Ling Yun said, “Then let’s go through the main door.”
