The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

Mu Hanxing's eyes lit up: "You mean, I go and destroy the barrier that trapped Qiongqi, and then when it is about to destroy the Heart-Searching Gate, I will seal it again while there are no casualties, and re-imprison it, and gain the trust of the disciples of the mountain gate as a savior, and then take control of the Heart-Searching Gate again?"

Jing Chen nodded calmly: "This method is not the best strategy. After all, I don't know what kind of magic power the Qiongqi you mentioned has, and I can't guarantee whether it will cause casualties to innocent people. But if you have no choice, you can consider this method. In addition, my suggestion for this trip to Xicheng is... we should rescue Cui Ren and his disciples properly first."

This idea coincided with hers. She was particularly satisfied with Jingchen's advice today. She said, "Well, I think so too, but to make sure no one gets hurt, I plan to let Junior Uncle act out a play with me later, making everyone in the mountain gate think that Cui Ren is dying and the head is isolated and helpless. Then I will volunteer and decide to save him regardless of the past. I will first make them change their opinion of me. When Cui Ren comes back, I will find a way to kill him."

Her eyes darkened and she smiled sinisterly, her villain temperament perfectly in place.

Jing Chen couldn't help but sneered: "The hypocrisy of those in power... No, we still need to be open-minded. The city lord is already very experienced in this regard."

"..."

He said it wrong on purpose, right?

Take back the kiss from yesterday!

She rolled her eyes at him and walked out angrily: "Let's go, I still have to meet up with my foster father, and I don't know what's going on with Qionghua."

The two of them left the secret room to meet up with Qionghua and Tang Huanyun.

When they arrived at Tang Huanyun's residence, they saw from a distance that Qionghua was already standing with Tang Huanyun, holding a medicine box, waiting for them outside the yard.

"City Lord, how is your health? The special elixir has been prepared, please take it." Although Qionghua's face was cold, he was indeed loyal to her.

Mu Hanxing trusted her very much. She took out a small pill from the box and threw it into her mouth. She endured the sudden bitterness and forced herself to swallow it. She frowned and said, "It's so bitter. Can this medicine quickly heal the internal injuries caused by the Taichen Sword?"

"Yes, but my suggestion is that you should rest for a month after taking the medicine. However, the city lord has important matters to attend to, and he needs to do everything himself right now, so I adjusted the properties of the medicine, and there will be no problem for the time being." Qionghua explained.

The team's nurse was so awesome that she was very satisfied and continued to paint a rosy picture: "During this coup, you were willing to follow Jingchen down to earth to save me. I am very grateful to you. I will definitely reward you well when I return to Fuyue City."

Qionghua smiled faintly: "As for Senior Tang's antidote, I still need to continue refining it in the alchemy room. I'm afraid I can't go with you on this trip to Xicheng. I hope the city lord will forgive me."

"It's okay, just focus on refining the medicine. I'll take Jingchen with me, and we may meet up with Fengxiao on the way."

When mentioning these two male favorites, Qionghua's expression became even colder. She looked away at Jingchen behind her and said to Mu Hanxing, "City Lord, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

Mu Hanxing was startled, then said to Tang Huanyun: "Little godfather, I want to talk to her for a while, please wait for me for a moment."

Tang Huanyun nodded: "Go ahead."

The two of them walked to a nearby place and started chatting in low voices.

It just so happened that after meeting Qionghua, she didn't have time to say a word to her.

"City Lord, when Master Jing and I were waiting for you yesterday, I tested him. He was too thoughtful and had even guessed that you wanted me to win over Zhuque so that I could take control of the city defense army in my own hands." Qionghua said.

After hearing this, Mu Hanxing's mood remained calm and she just sighed. She no longer found it strange that Jingchen could guess such things. It was not the first day she knew that man was a cunning person.

"Then what? Did you two have a fight?" Mu Hanxing asked.

Qionghua shook her head: "You can't quarrel with that kind of person. He knows how to seek benefits and avoid harm, and he always takes the initiative in his words. I was passive after just a few words, and I was at a disadvantage for no reason... I am not good at verbal confrontation with others."

I get it. He is good at being sarcastic and using rhetoric to irritate people, making himself invincible. If it were really a debate in the court, most people would not be able to win against him.

Everyone has his or her strengths, there's nothing to complain about.

Therefore, Mu Hanxing patted Qionghua on the shoulder and said with a relaxed look: "You are good at medicine, but he is not. He doesn't even know the basics. Don't worry, I won't blame you, and you don't have to be so hostile to him. I am isolated and helpless now, and I need him, Long Jin, and Feng Xiao to help me return to the city."

"As long as he is sincere in assisting you, I will certainly not say anything. I'm just afraid it's a trap." Qionghua looked worried.

Mu Hanxing reacted quickly and asked back, "So, that day, Jingchen noticed that you didn't trust him, so he asked you which medicinal ingredients you needed to save my junior master uncle, and he personally went to get one of them for you to verify to show his sincerity?"

Qionghua pursed her lips, as if she was still unwilling to accept it, but she still answered honestly: "Just as the city lord expected, that day, he suddenly asked me, and I answered. The green-tailed snake is extremely difficult to catch. I thought he didn't have the ability, so I challenged him a few words. Who knows... That's it, if he can catch it, I will give him credit for his achievement."

Mu Hanxing smiled faintly: "It's a good thing after all. Don't worry, I will know whether he is sincerely protecting the master or has bad intentions. Just focus on refining the medicine."

Qionghua nodded: "I understand. There is another most important thing that I didn't have time to report to the city lord before."

"You said."

At this point, Qionghua showed a hint of anger. She said, "Most of the important positions in the city are now controlled by City Lord Leng. Zhuque and I can only pretend to cater to him for the time being. Otherwise, those who resist will be killed without mercy."

Mu Hanxing had a calm expression, with a cold look in his eyes: "What else?"

"Because Chuntao is your personal attendant, I asked her to leave Fuyue City as soon as possible to prevent City Lord Leng from being afraid and harming her. I think she probably came to Wenxinmen to look for you, but I didn't communicate with her, so I don't know where she is now."

Chun Tao! ?

By the way, when she was in the city before, Chuntao was the person closest to her. After Leng Feiren took office as the new city lord, it was impossible for her to stay as a threat. Chuntao could only save her life by leaving temporarily. As for her and Qionghua, they have always communicated privately, and no one knew that the two had reached a consensus secretly a long time ago. Qionghua and Zhuque's pretending to flatter is also a good strategy. In this way, Qionghua can cooperate with her from inside and outside after returning to the city.

"Great, you did a great job this time." Mu Hanxing looked excited.

Maybe...

Then she remembered that the third person Tang Huanyun mentioned who came to Wenxinmen to find her was Chuntao who had turned into a man.
