Are you crazy? Who asked you to hunt for treasures in the emperor's harem?

"Li Wenjing? You... don't look like Wenjing at all!~"

Ye Fan was speechless as he looked at the fat, big-eared, middle-aged bearded man not far in front of him, with a crooked mouth showing big gold teeth and an extremely ferocious face.

"I……….."

Speaking of this, Li Wenjing's ferocious face turned red. "I... this name was given to me by my parents before I was born... the fortune teller said it was a girl..."

"Boy, stop talking nonsense and tell me straight out loud, will you do it?"

Li Gui became even more anxious when he saw the city guards and prison guards gradually falling into a weak position.

"Why do you have to look for me?"

Ye Fan glanced at the fighting crowd, his expression puzzled, "Your masked accomplices are now in the upper hand!"

"Shit accomplice!"

Li Gui looked a little disappointed. "I have never made a close friend in my life, let alone someone who would risk his life for me..."

"Many of those masked men have Marquis-level cultivation. They can't be my accomplices. I don't have any accomplices... I have never been to the capital since I was a child, let alone assassinating the Second Prince... I don't even know what the Second Prince looks like..."

Li Gui became more and more angry as he spoke, "Damn it... I was living a good life in Qinhuai City, but when I woke up, I suddenly became the murderer who assassinated the second prince Ming Bowu..."

"Hey, kid, I was planning to wait for death..."

At this point, Li Gui's eyes became full of hope, "Young man, oh, no, sir, if you save me, how about I tell you a big secret?"

"What big secret do you know?"

Ye Fan looked skeptical, after all, Li Gui's cultivation was only at the seventh level of the general rank.

"It's true, it's a huge secret!"

Li Gui once again glanced at the masked men, the city guards, and the prison guards. He gritted his teeth and whispered, "It's related to Prince Yuanzheng... I have worked for Prince Yuanzheng's mansion for decades. When the old guys in the Crafts Hall were drinking, I happened to pass by and learned a huge secret... The key to the Naxuan Ring made by the Crafts Hall... is those mysterious grooves. Its origin is not glorious. It was not made by the Crafts Master of Prince Yuanzheng's mansion as the Crafts Hall said..."

Having said this, Li Gui suddenly stopped talking. He looked at Ye Fan seriously and said, "Young man, I can only tell you this much..."

"Wait a minute, it was stolen!"

Li Gui saw Ye Fan turned his head and looked away, and immediately added a sentence.

"Oh?"

Ye Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. He just turned his head because he sensed several powerful auras approaching. He did not expect to get an unexpected reward...

"You better tell the truth!"

Ye Fan said in a deep voice, and the next moment, a light flashed in his hand, and a large number of talismans flew out and activated, instantly turning a huge area around into a sea of ​​fire...

In the midst of flames and smoke, Ye Fan slapped the prisoner car that trapped Li Gui apart. Without waiting for Li Gui to speak, he tapped him. Li Gui instantly found that he couldn't move even a finger on his body... He couldn't even make a sound...

After Ye Fan made a gesture to Liu Mengying, he picked up the tall and strong Li Gui like a chicken, and left the scene in a flash under the cover of flames and smoke...

Not long after Ye Fan, Liu Mengying, A Xin, and Li Gui left, several King-level Xuan cultivators who stood tall in the air arrived at the scene. They immediately dealt with the masked men who had not escaped...

..........

Half an hour later,

Ye Fan brought Li Gui to a remote suburban forest. Liu Mengying and A Xin had also arrived, but the two women did not show up. Instead, they hid behind the trunk of a big tree.

"Tell me about that secret you mentioned earlier!"

Ye Fan stretched out his hand and lightly touched Li Gui, saying calmly.

“It’s…it’s…the groove of the Naxuan Ring…”

Li Gui, who had regained his mobility, touched his whole body and was so shocked that he stuttered when he spoke.

"Yes... it's like this... The key to the casting of the Naxuan Ring by the Crafts Hall is the Xuanqi grooves on it. Those grooves were not made by the craftsman masters of Prince Yuanzheng's Palace as the Crafts Hall claimed, but were stolen by Prince Yuanzheng's people..."

"It was...stolen from a fairy..."

Li Gui saw Ye Fan looking at him and began to explain quickly with fear.

"Fairy?"

Ye Fan frowned slightly, "How do you know such important information? You didn't just make it up to fool me in order to save your life, did you?"

"No, no, no, absolutely not!"

Li Gui shook his huge head like a rattle, "I happened to pass by and heard those old guys drinking in the Zhuqi Hall... I didn't take it too seriously at first, just thinking that they were bragging after drinking. After all, this kind of thing is too outrageous..."

“But later I found out that the high-ranking members of the Building Equipment Hall who were drinking wine at that time, including the three king-level profound practitioners, all disappeared overnight… Then I realized that what those people said at that time might be true…”

"This is the biggest secret in my heart... After that, for a long time, many people related to the Building Equipment Hall were investigated. It was said that someone embezzled the Naxuan Ring, but I don't think that's the case..."

Li Gui quickly explained to Ye Fan.

"Tell me about the fairy you just mentioned!"

Ye Fan spoke again.

"I'm not sure about this... I just know what I just said..."

Li Gui looked embarrassed.

"I swear, sir, I swear, what I just said is true!"

Seeing that Ye Fan looked unhappy, Li Gui was so scared that he kowtowed and swore on the ground.

"Master, spare my life..."

"I swear on my deceased parents that I have told you everything I know..."

Li Gui kowtowed on the ground with snot and tears, thinking that Ye Fan would kill him to silence him. When he kowtowed until he was dizzy, he fell to the ground, only to find that Ye Fan had disappeared...

..........

The night falls,

Ye Fan, Liu Mengying and A Xin strolled on the street after having a hearty meal.

"Xiao Douya, Axin, what do you think of what Li Gui said?"

Walking on the road, Ye Fan said softly.

"If the information provided by that person is true, then it is really a huge secret... But the information provided by the other party is very limited, and we have no way to verify the authenticity of the information..."

A Xin took over the conversation.

"Big brother, do you also want to understand the secret of the groove of the Naxuan Ring?"

Liu Mengying obviously realized something and looked excited.

"Ok!"

Ye Fan nodded slightly, "Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to make the Naxuan Ring in the true sense, and the space in the Naxuan Ring is also very limited..."

"But Li Gui's situation is a bit strange. His words are aimed directly at Yuanzheng Palace. Ye Fan, Meng Ying, let's observe first and don't act rashly!"

At this time, Axin's voice sounded again.

"really!"

"Brother, let's go to Qushui Liushang to see if Sister Grape is here..."
