Chapter 422 – Because of You

“Sure enough, you did it.” Xiahou Di sidestepped and forced a step forward, glaring at him, “You really dared to tell me!”

The two of them were less than a foot apart, Xue Mu quietly looked at her, his expression unchanged: “Why did I not dare to tell you? The tripod is yours?”

“You ……”

“The tripod is Pan Kouzhi’s. After the extinction of the mind, the group of heroes searched for the tripod, and I got it, it’s as simple as that. That being said, it’s better in my hands than in Leng Zhu’s hands, if the Natural Sect owns two tripods, I’m afraid you won’t be able to sleep.”

Xiahou Di said angrily, “Who cares if you get the tripods or not! But why are you pouring sewage on the court!”

“I won’t talk about Ji Qingyuan’s old grudge of killing Qing Qiu in his previous layout. Some days ago, he took advantage of Qing Qiu’s injuries to have someone collude with forces to strike the Star Moon Sect, and then he sent someone to assassinate me while I was on a mission to Jianzhou. You see, I won’t even question him about why he wants to destroy my sect or even take my life.” Xue Mu faintly said, “This is an enemy, what is so strange about going against each other …… How come you can’t stand it if I throw a sewage?”

Xiahou Di went silent for a long time before sighing wearily, “Xue Mu, must you remind me that you and I are supposed to be enemies?”

“You and I are not enemies. In fact …… even Ji Qingyuan and I are not enemies, his route is to raise the Devil’s Sect to check and balance the righteous path, which is favorable to me, and should have been a natural ally each getting what they need. If he wasn’t always trying to trip up the Star Moon Sect, always trying to kill Qingqiu and I, then how could we be in such a relationship?” Xue Mu seriously said, “To be honest, I never wanted to go against the court, and even …… I’m quite inclined towards the court.”

Xiahou Di froze for a moment, his expression seemed to be disbelief.

“Specifically said trouble, also do not know how to say, you just take it as because ……” Xue Mu paused for a moment, whispered: “Because the court has you.”

Xiahou Di took another step backwards, pursed her lips, “You …… you just will molest me.”

Xue Mu shook his head and said, “This is true.”

This was not a true statement, it was not a statement of molestation.

Modern people would only like a stable and prosperous world, and in this perspective, although they didn’t have the same position as the court rulers, the goal was the same, and with what Xue Mu had seen and heard in this world, he was well aware that if there wasn’t a court doing something, the world would have been in disarray long ago.

But modern people on the feudal nature of the dynasty will not have the same good feeling, if the rulers are Ji Qingyuan kind of perverted or Ji Wuyi kind of coma, then Xue Mu may plan to build his rebellion himself, anyway, the Star and Moon Sect was originally a bit of a back to this flavor ……

But the problem is that many people in the court give Xue Mu a good impression ……

The three imperial court clans are beyond the world, Xue Mu contact in the past, people are good, medical science, forging and metallurgy science is always promoting the development of society, than only practicing martial arts or God God Road to fool people more decent. Even the court officials have been against, Zhang Bai Ling Ye Ting Sheng these people, Xue Mu must admit that the civil prosperity of Lingzhou Jianzhou can not be separated from their contribution.

The most crucial thing is that there is Xiahou Di. She is not a saint, she also has selfishness, for example, she will favor her eighth brother, she will also be emotional. But in the vast majority of things, she is the most competent Department Six Chief Constable, clean, dedicated, righteous, sincerely want to realize the world peace. Not to mention the friendship and ambiguity between the two, just the mainstay of the court has such a person, Xue Mu is very difficult to rise against this court.

That’s why he intervened in the fight for the position and only fought for his own interests. The best was to maintain the status quo and make it out of Princess Liu’s hands. Medium would be to foster a prince who shared the interests of the Devil Sect to the throne, and at the very least, not to allow someone who was hostile to the Star Moon Sect to come to power. For example, Ji Wuxing is indeed a bit inappropriate, this Tang King is quite thoughtful, perhaps the initial period can be a pleasant cooperation of interests, it is hard to say after many years, but at least it is not a very bad choice, it is possible to consider cooperation.

Anyway, no matter where you think about it, Xue Mu has never considered plotting a change in the sky, not even thinking about it.

Because the court has you.

“We are not enemies.” Xue Mu repeated, fished out another gold medal and shook it, smiling, “I’m your subordinate, Lord Chief Constable. I’m willing to share the Chief Constable’s worries about the Natural Sect.”

“You want to expose the False Tripod to the outside world in Star Moon Sect?”

“Yes, so that the Natural Sect can’t stand up to any action, the Mad Sand Sect also has no premise of moving and pondering to cut off, and they can only send at me if they have gas, the court stands to reason, and it becomes a battle between the righteous and the devil again, and Department Six once again holds the initiative.”

“This is not favorable to you.”

“Qingqiu has already controlled the tripod, they can’t do anything about it. Not to mention that the tripod can’t be hidden for a lifetime, this timing to expose it is at least useful, it’s better than being discovered by the people themselves later on.” Xue Mu smiled, “I’m the one who caused the trouble, and I’ve already caused you a lot of trouble, so it’s kind of like mending the sheep. Lest you have a lump in your heart and always be angry with me.”

“Don’t you know that this could be dangerous for you yourself out there.”

“At least the capital has you cover me ah.”

Xiahou Di did not speak, quietly gazing at him, always heroic and firm eyes seem to hide a bit of fog, to hide the mind blurred. Only after a while did she say, “Shouldn’t you be greedy for rewards?”

Xue Mu’s gaze fell on her red lips, and his heart moved slightly.

She seemed to say last time that she could ……

Xiahou Di countered by averting her gaze and faintly said, “I’m not your Star Moon Demoness, don’t expect me to use this kind of thing to dangle people to do things, Xue sheriff wanting to be promoted is something to consider.”

Xue Mu protested, “Hey, do you really think I’m an imperial court hawk dog?”

“Aren’t hawk dogs very suitable for you?” Xiahou Di inclined his head and thought, “Look …… at the eagle is a fowl, the dog is a beast. What are you if not a fowl or a beast?”

Xue Mu’s eyes widened.

I didn’t do anything, how am I a beast?

He forced a step forward.

Xiahou Di took a step back.

Forcing another step, Xiahou Di retreated to the wall, pressing his waist knife and said, “Any more colorful, believe it or not, I’ll cut ……”

The words did not fall, Xue Mu put up his index finger on her lips, sighed: “Well, nervous. And it is not not kissed, taste is also that …… I say, you still go back to rest, conservative estimate you have been three days and three nights did not close your eyes, the world is not missing you will not turn, do not add too much drama to yourself, look at my heartache, you are responsible for it?”

Xiahou Di’s taut body slowly softened, somewhat tiredly leaning against the wall without speaking. Xue Mu’s slightly rough fingers on her lips did not move away, as if feeling the softness of her lips, she did not say anything, just quietly looking at him.

Snowflakes continue to fall, hovering around the two, like flakes dancing lightly, and the movement of the finger erected on the lips, as if still. Two people look at each other in silence, in this silent night, solidified into a romantic and beautiful picture.

I don’t know how long, it seems that the snow under the feet of the two have already diffused on the edge of the shoes, Xiahou Di suddenly opened his mouth, “Xue Mu, want to hear my story?”
