Chapter 365 Undercurrent
"Save me?" Qin Mei had a lot of question marks on her head.
"You have to ask our Princess Xian'er. Have you offended the emperor or the tenth prince?" Qin Xiaoxian looked at Yu Xian'er.
Yu Xian'er didn't say anything, her fingers still tapping on the table.
Qin Mei got angry: "Let me make it clear! I didn't ask you to save me."
"If I don't save you two, will I still be alive? Do you think I am willing?!" Qin Xiaoxian complained in her heart.
"You mean, the Tenth Prince wants to kill Amei?" Yu Xian'er hesitated.
"I have shed blood for the empire and been wounded for the Fae! The royal family has no reason to kill me!" Qin Mei didn't believe it.
"Then if you help Yuxian'er to become bigger and stronger, and make someone feel that it is disadvantageous to him, let me ask you, will he keep you?" Qin Xiaoxian looked at the stubborn Qin Mei with a headache.
"I just want to prove that I am useful to the empire! I don't want to marry into Lin Hai!" Yu Xian'er gritted her teeth and pulled the armrest of the seat with her fingers.
"But some people think that you are a threat to them, especially since so many magician families and magic guard sects have shown goodwill to you in just over a month. Some people can't sit still."
"Why does he do that?!" The armrest of the chair in Yu Xian'er's hand was completely shattered.
"Perhaps, marrying you to the Linhai Empire was originally a test, but you cared too much about it and fell into this trap. Princess Thirteen, am I right?" Qin Xiaoxian smiled.
"It doesn't matter who I marry! But once I leave, the connections and power that the Faye Empire has built up over the years will be destroyed. This is an open conspiracy, and I have to fight against it!" Yu Xian'er's low voice sounded.
Qin Mei didn't seem to expect that her best friend had such a side to her. She grabbed her hand and said, "You saved me in the past, and you haven't been with me as a princess of the royal family for so many years. I have already decided that you are my friend. Don't worry, I will definitely stand by you."
"I'm using you, don't you care?" Yu Xian'er looked at Qin Mei with tears in her eyes.
"Who in this world can say that they approach others for no other reason than to gain something from them? I have also gained a lot of conveniences because of you. We are sisters, so we shouldn't say anything untoward," Qin Mei said firmly.
Qin Xiaoxian felt like a thousand divine beasts were trampling through her heart. With just one sentence from Yu Xian'er, she was able to take control of Qin Mei by retreating in order to advance.
"So why are you promoting Amei so much? Doesn't this make her more outstanding and attract the attention of Old Ten? Although Amei has been promoted to the fifth level, there are many seventh- and sixth-level magicians in the Fae Night Empire. It is impossible for Amei to turn danger into safety every time!" Yu Xian'er looked at Qin Xiaoxian.
"You are wrong. In the past, Magician Qin Mei had strength but no fame, so she was dead. But now it is different. I have made her a hero of the empire. The royal family will have to think twice before touching her again." Qin Xiaoxian said with a smile.
Yu Xian'er frowned and thought, she always felt that Qin Xiaoxian's behavior was not very reliable.
"Magician Pan, before you do this, can you ask for our opinion?" Qin Mei also frowned and said.
"Okay, I'll do it next time." Qin Xiaoxian stood up, stretched, and walked out.
"Does he like you?" As soon as Qin Xiaoxian left, Yu Xian'er returned to her usual expression and poked Qin Mei.
"What? Stop joking. He's such a smooth talker with a lot of evil intentions. If you stay with him, you'll be sold out by him and have to count money for him." Qin Mei said unhappily.
"Oh my, oh my, a magician who can kill so many people with close combat in an instant, you don't like him? You would be willing to be sold, right?" Yu Xian'er teased.
"What? He followed you back. I think he fell in love with you. Besides, everything he did, including saving me, was all for you." Qin Mei rolled her eyes.
"For you, for you, just for you!" Yu Xian'er laughed and Qin Mei couldn't bear it anymore, so she ran away.
For a moment, Yu Xian'er was the only one left in the yard. She put away her smile and waited for a moment. Then a figure flashed in from the back door.
"Princess, I have not found any hunting magician family there, and no one has ever heard of the name Pan An."
"Okay, you can go down." Yu Xian'er sent the man away.
Frowning, she looked in the direction where Qin Xiaoxian and Qin Mei disappeared, and murmured softly: "Who are you? Why are you here?"
On the other side of Aser City, in the Tenth Prince’s house, a similar scene was taking place.
"My Lord Tenth Prince, as you expected, this person has not been found. His name and background are fabricated. Over the past half month, feedback from various places has been sufficient to prove that he is not from the Fae Night Empire." Wanqi Yu reported to the Tenth Prince respectfully.
"But, the magical aura on Nie Xu and others is indeed from the Qin family..." The Tenth Prince looked at the file in his hand and frowned.
"I have checked very carefully. I can confirm that there is no such person in the Qin family where Qin Mei from Tuoluo City is located." Wanqi Yu said with certainty.
"You mean he used a special method to change the magical aura?"
"It's not impossible. The blood of some kinds of plant monsters has this effect." Wanqi Yu replied.
"But their fatal injuries were all caused by close combat. Was there anyone else there at the time?"
"At that time, our people in charge of outer security confirmed that there was no third-party involvement." Wanqi Yu shook his head.
"That's interesting. Even if Qin Mei is gifted and a rare genius in cultivation, she is still a magician. How could she have such a record? Unless..." The Tenth Prince pondered.
"Unless there is something fishy about Pan An." Wanqi Yu asked tentatively, "Could it be that he is practicing both magic and spirit?"
"Shut up! Father doesn't want to hear this word!" The Tenth Prince's face changed.
Wanqi Yu quickly lowered his head.
“Although a piece of trash died, she was my father’s beloved daughter after all. Look at that Qiongqi. My father didn’t kill him. He wanted to torture him slowly, let him see that his so-called magic and spirit dual cultivation was a joke, and then let him experience the feeling of exploding and dying!” The tenth prince shook his head and laughed, “How cruel, haha.”
"Tenth Prince, Qin Mei can't move now." Wanqi Yu said.
"Who would have thought that she could be promoted during the awarding of honors? She is already at the fifth level before she is thirty years old. What kind of monster is she? Haha, this talent is really amazing." The tenth prince smiled and said, "Find a way to let the first thousandth ray test Pan An's strength. I want to know what kind of person he is."
"Okay, I'll do it right away." Wanqi Yu nodded.
“That Pingming School is your property after all. You should also pay attention to it when appropriate.” The Tenth Prince said, resting his chin on his hand.
"I have already placed someone in there."
"Very good. Magician Wanqi, when I sit on the throne, you will be the Prime Minister of the Empire." The Tenth Prince said lightly.
"We, the Wanqi family, are willing to serve the Faye Empire."
“Haha, don’t worry, the master of your Wanqi family must have been you.” The tenth prince said with a smile.
"Thank you very much, Tenth Prince." Wanqi Yu smiled.
