Chapter 3114: There Are Always Higher Mountains

Cao Pi has always been very humble, and he is also particularly respectful to several people in high positions.

But today, the fear and anxiety that flashed in his eyes were still seen through by Xun Yu.

Facing the gaze of Cao Pi and Zhen Mi, Xun Yu smiled and clasped his fists and said: "Your Highness, it's cold at night, please don't move around, otherwise there are so many guardian spirit formations in my house, if you accidentally hurt Your Highness, it will be the fault of this old minister."

"Yes... Let's go back to the room and rest now, and promise not to go anywhere."

Cao Pi bowed and immediately held Zhen Mi's cold little hand and returned to the guest room together.

Only Xun Yu was left, standing gloomily in the silent courtyard. The gloomy horror that arose naturally made Cao Pi, who was peeking through the crack of the door, couldn't help but get goose bumps all over his body.

After waiting for a long time, Xun Yu finally left the yard.

At this time, Cao Pi suddenly took a breath of cold air and sat down with his wife in front of the window.

"Your Highness, I have already said that Xun Yu is not right, why do you still come to his house?" Zhen Mi was a little angry.

She had reminded him before.

"Alas."

Cao Pi poured a cup of cold tea, took a sip, and said: "In the previous situation, if I showed suspicion and rejected his kindness, he would really regard me as a thorn in his side and remove me as soon as possible! On the contrary, if I came with him, it would show that I did not suspect him. As long as we don't become an obstacle to him, we can live longer..."

Hearing this, Zhen Mi nodded. As long as she was with him, she was not afraid of life and death.

...

Under Xun Yu's dispatch, the strong men from all sides were rushing to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now some generals who were closer have come to the outside of the mansion, and everyone's face was full of solemnity.

"I don't know what happened, the Prince's Mansion was razed to the ground."

"Who said it wasn't? When the Prime Minister's letter came, I was still in the land of gentleness."

"Hahaha, General Guo, this is considered to ruin your good thing."

"Shh, don't talk nonsense, someone is coming."

In front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, two generals looked at the golden armored general coming from a distance, and they all stepped forward to bow respectfully.

"General Guo, General Hao, you are all here."

Xu Huang clasped his fists towards the two of them.

"General Xu, what happened to the Prince's Mansion?" Guo Huai asked curiously.

"Alas, Xudu was on fire, and the Prince's Mansion was razed to the ground. This is the humiliation that has never happened in the history of my Eternal Night Empire. In short, we must be on guard tonight and don't let the thieves take advantage of it. When the morning court tomorrow, His Majesty will have a holy judgment."

"Yes!"

The two generals responded one after another, not daring to neglect.

After that, Xu Huang strode into the Prime Minister's Mansion and walked all the way towards the main hall.

Although the mansion was heavily guarded outside, it was peaceful and quiet inside.

Xu Huang had an indifferent expression and calm eyes. He went straight to the front of the hall. Sure enough, Xun Yu was here!

"General Xu?"

Seeing the newcomer, Xun Yu's eyes flickered with a little smile.

"Prime Minister, I have sent the soldiers in the mansion to help the city defense army control the inside and outside of the city gate. General Yu and General Li have also started a carpet search. So far, no enemy has been found."

Xu Huang said sternly.

"Well done, we don't need to catch the enemy tonight. After all, they are strong men who can escape from your hands. Ordinary soldiers are not their opponents at all. As long as we ensure that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is safe, His Majesty will make a decision tomorrow!"

"But Prime Minister, do you want me to guard His Royal Highness's side? If that group of people luckily break into your mansion and something happens to the Crown Prince here, you will have a hard time explaining to His Majesty..."

Xu Huang pretended to be very worried.

"Hahaha, General Xu is worrying too much. General Zhang He is now guarding outside the gate of His Highness. With my protective formation, these people can't get in."

"Is that so... By the way, Prime Minister, I heard that Mr. Guo Jia has left Xudu for a while. During this period, General Pang also came to ask me the specific reason, but I don't know at all."

"Ah, this matter is actually like this..."

Xu Huang tried his best to entangle Xun Yu.

At the same time.

...

"Break the Hunyuan Heluo formation!"

Guo Jia moved his handprint, and the invisible void in front of him was shaken again.

"Let's go."

He smiled lightly and continued to move forward with Bai Chen.

In the garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the two of them broke more than a dozen protective formations in succession with the help of Guo Jia, and Xun Yu didn't know yet.

Xun Yu's soul power is already extraordinary.

However, Guo Jia's existence made Bai Chen deeply realize that in this huge Shenwu Continent, there are always higher mountains!

But when they came to a dense forest, Guo Jia's footsteps suddenly stopped.

The two jumped onto a leaf and saw a silver-armored general holding a spear under the eaves in the distance, like an old monk in meditation, motionless.

"Zhang He, he is here..."

Guo Jia smiled and narrowed his eyes.

"Is this man strong?"

Bai Chen asked curiously.

"It's okay, I will attract his attention later, you take this opportunity to go to the house to save people, remember to move quickly!"

"Okay!"

After saying that, Guo Jia moved his handprint, and under the activation of the Sky Splitting Formation, his figure quickly grew larger and soon returned to his usual appearance.

A person suddenly appeared in the yard, making Zhang He's face instantly solemn.

"Master Jijiu?"

Zhang He looked directly at the young man in blue shirt walking towards him, and a gloomy green light flashed in his eyes.

"Ah, General Zhang He, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I wonder where the general has made a fortune recently~"

Guo Jia waved his folding fan and joked with a smile.

"Master Jijiu, you are joking. This general only takes protecting the Eternal Night as his own responsibility. Shouldn't making money be something that Master Jijiu likes?"

"Hahaha, look at what you said. I just opened a few stores to make a living for the mansion. There is no other way. My small official position is not as high as your salary."

"Master Jijiu, you are joking again. His Majesty favors you, but even General Dian Wei is envious!"

"Oh? Really? Speaking of which, I haven't seen General Dian for a long time. This guy used to like to drink with me so much, but now that he has Xu Chu as his companion, he doesn't even look for me anymore. Alas, the world is really going downhill and people are cold and indifferent~"

While Guo Jia was talking, Bai Chen had already crawled in from the crack of the door at the back. Zhang He didn't notice the whole process because all his attention was focused on this man named Guo Jia.

Zhang He, like Xun Yu, is no longer the Zhang He of the past. For them, Guo Jia's existence is always an unpredictable variable, and the target they are most afraid of and want to get rid of at any time.

...

Bai Chen came into the house and saw the two people sitting by the window at a glance with the warm moonlight projected from the air window.

These two people who are eavesdropping on the conversation outside the door are the crown prince Cao Pi and the goddess of Luo River Zhen Mi?
