Chapter 590: Chapter 476 Liuhe Zhuxian Sword Diagram (Big Chapter asking for guaranteed monthly ticket!)_4

It was at this moment that a familiar voice rang out from a distance, "How is it? Marquis of Guanjun, have you figured anything out?"

Li Xuan turned his head and saw that it was indeed Zuo Daoxing, the Dudu Tongzhi from Xiuyiwei, who was hurriedly flying in from a distance.

Li Xuan was not surprised. The case of the Crown Prince’s sudden illness was so significant that it would be strange if this man wasn’t alarmed.

But at this moment, all Li Xuan could do was shake his head, "It’s highly suspicious, but we lack definitive evidence. I’ve had people check whether the three deaths due to brain tumors are connected to the two foreign monks and these black datura flowers. We also need to check if there are any other cases of brain tumors in the vicinity. The black datura flowers should also be taken back for the Imperial Physicians to examine."

Li Xuan then asked, "Did your search yield any results?"

Zuo Daoxing could only reply with a bitter smile, "Wusizang is tens of thousands of miles away from Capital City. It will take us at least three to five days to investigate those two men."

Furthermore, your assistant has arrived at the Imperial Physician’s hospital, and they are trying to verify whether the dust is indeed black datura. But this will also take two to three days."

Li Xuan couldn’t help but feel helpless upon hearing this. In other words, they would have to wait another two days to confirm whether these black datura flowers had any connection to the Crown Prince’s sudden illness.

He thought that this was actually a good thing as by then he would have finalized bringing Qiu Qianqiu into the palace. Then he could devote all his time and energy to the case of the Crown Prince’s sudden illness.

Just then, a change flickered across Li Xuan’s face as he looked towards the other side of the backyard. A wry smile quickly followed, "Please excuse me, Left Dudu. I have to attend to something. I’ll be back shortly."

As he spoke, Li Xuan turned into streaks of light and flew towards the dense forest on the side of Longfu Temple.

Zuo Daoxing did not respond. His face was grave. "Guards! Lock down Longfu Temple. Detain everyone inside for questioning!"

Upon hearing this, Master Xuantong’s face turned pale. He knew that something was wrong.

The only thing left unknown was what serious case the monastery had gotten involved in to warrant this scale of detention -

Li Xuan and Luo Yan, who had flown into the dense forest together, had now met Mo Changsheng, the Mohist Giant.

This man appeared to be in his thirties, clad in coarse attire and straw sandals. He bore the appearance of a simple farmer. However, his handsome features and inviting demeanor were striking.

Nevertheless, what captivated Li Xuan the most was the Organ Puppet looming in translucent form behind Mo Changsheng.

The Mohist School was void of any at the heavenly level, and Mo Changsheng was of a sub-heavenly level. Yet, this man compared closely to ’Lu Ban’, each with a heavenly level puppet at his command.

The sight of these heavenly level puppets was not only enticing to Li Xuan but Leng Yurou as well, who wished to uncover more.

Mo Changsheng was the first to break the silence, "I apologize for the intrusion!" There was a hint of self-deprecation in his voice, "I couldn’t sit still at Shanwei House, so, I came directly to you. I hope you won’t mind, Marquis of Guanjun."

Li Xuan immediately responded, "How dare I? The error is mine, for falling behind schedule. My apologies, Mohist Giant, for making you wait."

Previously, he had arranged with Mo Changsheng to meet at the end of the Hour of Shen, but due to sudden developments, he was forced to be a little late.

Surprisingly enough, the Mohist Giant came straight to him.

However, Li Xuan was puzzled at the same time. How could this Mohist Giant be so impatient that he couldn’t wait even for a moment or two?

Mo Changsheng noticed his doubt and sighed helplessly. "It is a matter of my Mohist School’s survival. I cannot help but be anxious."

He reached for a talisman and presented it before Li Xuan, "Marquis of Guanjun, read this seal and you will understand."

Musing over the contents of the seal, Li Xuan burst into laughter, "This is a trivial matter. I can solve it using a golden arrow talisman. I guarantee all your Mohist disciples and even those tools and goods will be intact."

Mo Changsheng looked doubtful. He thought of the 500 people from his base and goods worth 300,000 teals that had been seized by the Jishi Office of Henan.

Moreover, the Jishi Office had always been at odds with Li Xuan.

Upon thinking of Li Xuan’s noble character, Mo Changsheng figured he wouldn’t lie to him about this matter.

He nodded slightly, "I trust you, Mohist! My Mohist School will cast our votes unanimously in favor of Marquis of Guanjun during the Elder Council meeting two days from now. However—"

He paused, a solemn expression painted his face as he warned, "You must beware of Wei Zhen. This monk is not simple. As per my knowledge, he has deep connections with several elders of Confucianism and Taoism. The votes in your hand, Marquis, may not be as secure as you think."

Luo Yan instinctively looked at Li Xuan when he heard this, concern filling her eyes.

Li Xuan, however, wore a confident smile, "Mohist Giant, rest assured. All of this is within my calculations."

His eyes sparkled with anticipation. Regarding the Elder Council meeting in two days, Li Xuan couldn’t wait.
