Chapter 373: 306. Xuan Snake and Treasure Monkey 3

Li Xuan ignored his threat and remained silent.

Lord Xuan She looked towards Huitong Hall and asked the Korea Envoy, "Who approached the sedan chair?"

The Korea Envoy chattered in a series of incomprehensible words, and Lord Xuan She sneered, "Translator, speak up!"

A chubby middle-aged man hurriedly waved his hand, "It’s none of my business, I didn’t notice who got close to the sedan chair."

Lord Xuan She pointed to the other chattering Korean Envoys, "What are they saying?"

The translator hurriedly replied, "They said please capture the Jing Dynasty’s murderous villain quickly and seek justice for them."

Lord Xuan She fell silent.

Treasure Monkey laughed heartily, "Nonsense. With so many babbling barbarian envoys, even a master of criminal investigation like Lord Xuan She is having difficulty. Lord Xuan She, quickly capture the Jing Dynasty’s villain. I’ll let you take the credit."

Lord Xuan She said calmly, "Someone, first handle the crime scene. Isolate the envoys in Huitong Hall separately, don’t give them the chance to collude. Ask for the Honglu Temple’s translator to come and interrogate them one by one, I don’t trust their translator."

Behind him, the spies responded in unison, "Yes!"

Treasure Monkey smacked his lips, "Lord Xuan She is giving orders without asking a single question?"

Lord Xuan She ignored him and continued, "The Yulin Army is to be detained in the Imperial Prison awaiting trial, also separately. Those who dare to disobey will be executed without mercy."

Li Xuan instinctively looked at Chen Ji, "Is there a way? If we’re locked up in the Imperial Prison..."

Chen Ji did not reply, only raising his head to exchange a glance with Jiao Tu, allowing the spies brought by Lord Xuan She to push him out of East Rongmi Lane.

On the roof, Treasure Monkey jumped down, casually tossing the unconscious Qi Zhenzhuo to the ground, squatting to examine the corpse.

From under the mask, a hoarse voice spoke in a lowered tone, "Indeed, it was Ma Qianzi poison, he died quickly, without even the strength to struggle, his heart and lungs completely damaged."

A sharp voice sounded from under the mask, "Si Caogeng? Or Si Caobing? These two are most skilled with poison, I’ve been tracking them for a long time, they must be killed!"

The previous hoarse voice said, "You don’t even know what they look like, how will you kill them? Such empty talk."

A woman’s voice lazily spoke from under the mask, "Annoying."

At this time, Lord Xuan She approached, the original voice of Treasure Monkey sounded, "Stop arguing."

All voices immediately ceased.

...

...

On the other side, Yun Yang watched from the rooftop as Chen Ji was taken away, puzzled, "This is the first time I’ve seen this kid so helpless, I thought he could find the real culprit on the spot... what is his plan?"

Jiao Tu’s lips curled slightly, "I know what his plan is."

Yun Yang squinted, "You only exchanged a glance and know what he wants to do? Since when did you have such tacit understanding?"

Jiao Tu snorted disdainfully, "What does it have to do with you?"

Yun Yang was at a loss for words, he paused for a moment, "Strange, didn’t you say you intercepted the spy who went back to report, how do Xuan She and Treasure Monkey know what happened here?"

Jiao Tu squatted on the rooftop, propping her chin, smiling, "I sent someone to inform them."

Yun Yang raised an eyebrow, "Why share the credit with them?"

Jiao Tu responded with interest, "Bai Long favors that kid Chen Ji, if he doesn’t die, becoming a zodiac is practically certain, and we can’t suppress him with just us. Might as well give him some new opponents, with Xuan She and Treasure Monkey involved, that kid will naturally need to borrow our strength. Then he’ll appreciate us. Teaming up with me, his beautiful elder sister, is better than joining forces with those two monsters. Then we might help him kill the snake or the monkey, and his spot in the zodiac will be vacant."

Yun Yang muttered, "Isn’t the position of the Tiger already vacant?"

Jiao Tu rolled her eyes, "Is that something we can think about? That kid is just a Hai Dongqing now, he can’t rise to the top suddenly."
