Nangong Lie shivered as goose bumps covered his body. He coughed softly a few times. “Recently, there were a lot of people within the clan who defected. Their subordinates had subsequently been confused. Even though it’s unlikely they’ll go as far as to brazenly throw their life away in front of you, yet they are still watching you to see what in the world your situation is right now, and wait for an opportunity to make a move.”

Baili Jia Jue calmly listened and didn’t speak at all. As his long sleeves were floating, the side of his body seemed like it gave rise to a faintly discernible kind of overlapping image.

However, Nangong Lie seemed as if he’d seen something he shouldn’t have seen. His pair of eyes opened wide as he moved backwards step by step in large strides……

“You……” It was clear and easy to see that Nangong Lie was stunned. His gaze slowly moved away from the overlapping image. After that, it rested on Baili Jia Jue’s face. “Last night, the fire qilin did not come on its own accord. You summoned it?”

Baili Jia Jue faintly ‘mm hm’d once, his fingertips propped up his forehead, and remained unmoving, yet his bearing was as graceful as a lord.

As Nangong Lie smiled, a devilishness was birthed. “You obviously disliked implicating other people the most, yet because of a girl, even the fire qilin was summoned back. Ah Jue, don’t tell me that you only consider her to be your prey.”

“And if not, then what?” Baili Jia Jue lifted his eyes, his voice cold. “You want to take out that same divining the future act to trick somebody again? Oh yeah, that Movement of the Red Phoenix Star and what not?”

Nangong Lie saw the unspoken expression in his eyes, smiled leisurely, and changed the subject. “I’m only worried about you playing too much and forgetting all about serious business. Since the fire qilin has returned, then isn’t all of the qi in your body returning soon?”

Baili Jia Jue didn’t pay attention to his topic of discussion, and only moved his left hand slightly. The long sleeves floated in the air in an extraordinary and gorgeous manner as the barrier disappeared. Eunuch Sun stood outside the palace hall, his face staring vacantly.

Baili Jia Jue swept a quick glance at him, a pair of eyes floating up then sinking down. “Invite Grandmaster Zi Zun over.”

Huh? “Zi Zun, that old head is also here?” Nangong Lie turned around and muttered softly. “Hasn’t he been busying himself with the martial qi competition that’s coming up not long from now?” Reportedly, when anyone approached him, he would throw the words ‘this old one is not available!’ at them. Why would he show up now inside the palace?

This kind of question was just floating in Nangong Lie’s mind as he was turning around, when he faced the sight of Grandmaster Zi Zun tied up like a roll of trussed meat roast.

“Haha, hahaha!” Nangong Lie was first stunned, then laughed loudly after that. He laughed so hard his tears almost flowed, one hand was pointing at Grandmaster Zi Zun, while the other hand encircled his own belly. “Old head, this, at which point did your body get taken advantage of. Aren’t these clothes of yours…….haha, also ripped just too characteristically, you know?”

The corners of Zi Zun’s mouth twitched as he fiercely and coldly humphed!

Baili Jia Jue only seemed as if he hadn’t seen this scene, as he politely and gracefully instructed Shadow by his side. “Unbind Grandmaster Zi Zun.”

“Yes.” Shadow respectfully lowered his head.

Zi Zun glared at them. It wasn’t easy for him to regain his freedom and was just about to launch a tirade.
