Hey, you are reborn too?

Jiang Yu suppressed his displeasure, frowned, and changed the subject: "Why did I ask you to do that?"

Under Wang Wu's shocked gaze, Jiang Yu snorted coldly, turned around gracefully, threw the letter into Deputy Sect Leader Zhang's arms, leaving only his back to Wang Wu.

"Since the Queen has entrusted you with this task, you should do it well. Excuse me!"

Jiang Yu raised his hand to Deputy Sect Leader Zhang and the others: "You don't have to follow me yet, I'll be back soon."

After he finished speaking, he jumped lightly from the ground, swung his moon-white brocade robe, and disappeared into the jungle.

In fact, Jiang Yu wanted to get angry just now, but when he was about to vent his anger, he happened to see his cheap master in a hidden corner.

The master shook his index finger at him. At the junction of light and shadow, the man looked mysterious.

Although Jiang Yu felt strange, he still followed his master's wishes. No matter what, he suppressed his anger and calmly responded to the queen's neglect.

After saying those ironic words, Jiang Yu's depression was swept away.

What's so great about the Queen? Jiang Yu straightened his back even more. Even if he kept delaying the task, wouldn't she be helpless and have to send someone else to carry out the task?

Could it be possible that she would give up cooperating with me?

Jiang Yu felt a chill running down his spine and shuddered violently. He was so useless, but the Queen didn't even scold him. Instead, she was indifferent and asked him to just return to the capital?

Jiang Yu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

He understood that the more useless he was, the happier the queen was.

After all, in the eyes of the queen, she was just a useful puppet of hers, and a puppet with status that could allow her to become the legitimate empress dowager.

It's a good thing that the puppet is obedient.

But if the puppet is too powerful, it will easily arouse suspicion from its master.

Jiang Yu slowly tightened his fingers, feeling a little scared. Fortunately, he listened to his master and did not force himself to continue following up on this task.

Otherwise, if the Queen Mother is very suspicious, who knows if she will choose to support someone else because she is afraid of me, thus benefiting my third brother?

When he reached a deserted place, Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, but he was still a little frightened, so he turned his back to everyone and gently patted his chest with his hands.

"Good disciple." A voice came from the tree.

Jiang Yu's body stiffened, then slowly relaxed.

Isn't this voice his cheap master's?

"Master!" He lowered his voice but called out sincerely.

If he was not very satisfied with his master before, but became his disciple because of the situation, now he really began to respect and accept this master in his heart.

After all, this master had just taught him how to avoid the Queen Mother's suspicion again.

It also temporarily saved his life.

"Master, are you here to talk to me about something?"

Before the man could speak, Jiang Yu lowered his body slightly and asked respectfully.

"Yes, tell me honestly, was your mission to assassinate Miss Xie Yongwei from the Zhenyuan General's Mansion?"

His tone was slow and relaxed, but the calmness in his voice made people dare not question it.

Jiang Yu was shocked.

Master actually knows this.

Since the secrets involved were of great importance, Jiang Yu did not want to admit it at first. However, when he heard that his master had pointed out the target and content of the mission in such detail, he could not help but admire his master's ability to collect information.

Even though he couldn't admit it, he wanted to nod and admit it at this moment.

"It's okay." Jiang Yu's little thoughts seemed to be exposed in front of the man. He said calmly, "Just tell the truth. There are only you and me here. I will naturally not betray you."

Jiang Yu's heart was filled with alarm bells. Was his emotional master going to test his loyalty?

My heart suddenly tightened. Is the loyalty that the master wants to test to me towards him or to the queen?

"Master, Master," Jiang Yu raised his head, trying to see the expression on his master's face. However, it was too dark and the man was far away in the treetops, so he couldn't see his expression. He gritted his teeth and decided to follow his inner thoughts. "It is true."

"Your master is the queen?"

Although this sentence is said in a questioning tone, the ending tone is falling, as if the result is already certain.

"Yes."

If Jiang Yu was just admiring her just now, now he wanted to prostrate himself in front of her.

The master was so terrifying that he managed to find out everything about me in just a few hours.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but shudder. Did he still have any secrets in front of him?

Can there still be secrets?

As if seeing through his thoughts, the man spoke again: "Don't be nervous, and don't misunderstand. It's only because you are my apprentice that I went to check so much."

The voice paused, then chuckled and continued what it was saying.

"Let me put it this way, you can't kill Xie Yongwei."

Jiang Yu's pupils suddenly shrank, and he stared at the person on the treetop with wide eyes, a look of disbelief on his face.

"Master, why is this?"

The man moved, stood up gently, and rose and fell a few times among the lush branches and leaves. Almost in an instant, he came in front of Jiang Yu, which scared Jiang Yu.

"Don't ask so many questions," the cheap master raised a finger and put it to his lips. The torch in the distance illuminated the right half of his face. The corner of his mouth raised a crazy arc, "Shh."

The cheap master actually had a very secretive look on his face, and his eyes revealed an emotion that Jiang Yu could not understand. Was it hatred, ecstasy, or both?

Jiang Yu was almost confused by him.

But the skill displayed by the master today had already convinced him unconsciously, so much so that he no longer had the desire to delve into the master's nonsensical resistance.

But I want to obey unconsciously.

"Yes!" He put his palms together, bent down, and respectfully saluted the master.

After the ceremony, Jiang Yu couldn't help but feel curious. He looked at his master's handsome features and unkempt face, and his curiosity reached its peak.

"Master," Jiang Yu couldn't help but stop the man when he was about to turn around and leave. Seeing the man turn around, he took a deep breath and asked the question in his mind, "Who are you? And what do you like about me that you want to take me as your apprentice?"

As he spoke, Jiang Yu saw his master's jaw tighten for a moment.

Oh no, Jiang Yu thought to himself, I must have some merits that are worth the master's praise, and yet I have the audacity to ask such a question, thus putting the master in an awkward position, right?

As if to confirm what he was thinking, the expression of the man in front of him became difficult for a moment.

"Well, this," he frowned, grinned honestly, and even scratched his head sincerely, "This is a long story, but do you really want to hear it?"

When Jiang Yu heard that there was a chance, why would he let it go?

He immediately clasped his fists in front of his chest, his eyes eager, “Master, please tell me the truth!”

"Tsk," he muttered quietly. Jiang Yu didn't know if he was hallucinating. "What can I say about this?"

"Master?" Jiang Yu asked doubtfully.
