A life of two souls traveling through time

Chapter 289 Hong Hua is threatened by You Mei

In Linyuan Town in the eastern border of Xiyue Country, Honghua and Zeng Si were sitting in a teahouse in the north of the town, both looking outside at the ordinary house diagonally opposite.

"I followed here last night and saw with my own eyes that shadow warrior sneaking into the house."

"We'll find a way to get in after dark." After hearing Zeng Si's words, Honghua secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After such a long time, there was finally some clues.

After the two searched for Xuanyu in Qile City without success, they went directly to Chaoyun City, but still could not find any trace of Xuanyu in the base of Chaoyun City. Honghua was even more certain that her sister must be involved in the internal struggle of Yingmen. She was ordered by the leader of Xinmen to go to Southern Xinjiang, but disappeared on the way for no reason. Although it was not certain who was behind this, the suspicion of the leader of Xinmen could be ruled out first, so the current search for Xuanyu still depended on the help of this leader.

Honghua used a poisonous drug to inquire about the whereabouts of the leader of Xinmen from the Nanying people who stayed in Chaoyun City, but found that no one in Nanying except Zuo Hu could contact the superiors privately. So after asking for a long time, he only found out that Xinmen was hiding in Linyuan Town in the eastern border of Xiyue Country.

The two of them traveled all the way to Linyuan Town in Xiyue Country, but this town was neither big nor small, and the Shadow Gate had always been hiding, so it was not easy to find the Xin Gate here.

After secretly investigating for several days, Zeng Si finally found the people from Yingmen, and followed them all the way to this seemingly inconspicuous house in front of him.

It was still early, so Honghua and Zeng Si came out of the teahouse and returned to the inn.

"Snapped"

When the two were resting in their rooms, there was a sound of breaking cups and utensils suddenly coming from Zeng Si's room next door. Honghua was startled and wanted to go out to check, but saw a black shadow rushing in through the window.

"How are you, Miss Honghua? No, I should respectfully address you as the Master of Honghua Valley now."

"Master in charge?"

A lazy and deep voice filled Honghua's face with fear. She stared at the black shadow in front of her with wide eyes and quietly hid the poison powder in her hand.

Although he couldn't see the face clearly, Honghua could clearly feel the intimidating oppression of the black shadow in front of him. He was definitely not a puppet in the hands of the leader of the Xin Sect as Yan Yu had mentioned, but the real leader of the Ying Sect, Youmei.

It seems that Youmei was not poisoned by the secret medicine Guxin, but played tricks on the leader of Xinmen. Thinking of this, Honghua guessed that his sister Yanyu must be in Youmei's hands. He appeared in front of him today, so it seemed that his sister should be fine.

"Master Honghua has traveled thousands of miles to Xiyue Country, I guess you are looking for your sister, right?" The Shadow Clan's leader Youmei went straight to the point and continued to ask Honghua lazily.

"I wonder if you, sir, could tell me my sister's whereabouts?" Honghua had regained her composure at this time. She bowed to Youmei in front of her and smiled charmingly.

"Master Honghua should just abandon this dying man."

Unexpectedly, that mysterious sneer and those light words were like a knife stabbing Honghua in the heart, frightening her so much that her face turned pale instantly.

"What do you mean, Lord Chief?" Honghua's pupils shrank slightly, and then murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"Yunyu is not only your sister, but also a member of my Yingmen. She deceives her superiors and subordinates while in Yingmen, and colluded with Hong'a, the leader of Xinmen, to betray me. Do you think that I should kill such a disloyal subordinate, Master Honghua? " Youmei snorted coldly and asked gloomily.

"Master, you are really bullying me. My sister is just a small left guard of Nanying. At first, my sister was kept in the dark about the rebellious behavior of the leader of Xinmen. Later, she accidentally noticed some subtle details, but it was too late. How can she, with her powerless voice, compete with the leader of Xinmen? Moreover, it was clearly the leader of your Yingmen who committed rebellion. Instead of taking action against him, you took action against my sister? It is said that Yingmen has always treated people fairly, but I didn't expect that it is just a false reputation. The leader is so rebellious, but Master, as the leader of Yingmen, is reluctant to take him down. Could it be that he..." Honghua was secretly glad to know that Youmei did not know what Yanyu had done to protect the famous Li from Jiangnan. She immediately showed annoyance on her face. She put her hands on her hips and shouted with an aggrieved look as if she was standing up for her sister.

"shut up!"

Seeing the sharp-tongued and unyielding woman in front of him, Youmei couldn't help but hide and look out the window. He didn't stop until he heard the other party touching his taboos, then he lowered his voice and shouted to stop her.

Honghua was also frightened by Youmei's shout. Although she was angry, she could do nothing because the other party was someone she could not afford to offend. What's more, her sister was still in his hands. For now, she could only pretend to be nice to him.

"Since the Lord Chief already knows that I came to Xiyue Country to look for my sister, why don't you tell me clearly what I want in order to let my sister go?" Honghua poured a cup of warm tea and handed it to Youmei, then spoke in a soft and gentle voice.

"I believe Master Honghua is familiar with this thing, right?" Youmei did not take the tea from Honghua's hand, but took out a medicine bottle and placed it in front of her, asking in a low voice.

"Secret medicine poison heart?" Honghua's eyes flashed slightly. This was the secret medicine poison heart that she had personally handed to her sister before. She naturally recognized the bottle, but it should have been in the hands of the leader of Xinmen. She didn't expect that it was taken out by Youmei.

"Are you wondering why this medicine came into my hands?"

"Master, please speak directly if you have anything to say."

"Find a way to get close to Hong Ah and make him take this secret medicine Gu Xin."

"With Lord Zhang's ability, wouldn't it be easy to capture the leader of Xinmen? Why bother..." Honghua looked puzzled, but was interrupted by the other party before he finished his question:

"I will come again in three days. If you can handle this matter well, your sister will be fine. Otherwise... By the way, since the boy next door is so affectionate to your sister, I always like to help others to achieve their goals, so I will be kind enough to take him to see your sister." After Youmei said this, he jumped out of the window again.

"Bastard!" Honghua looked at the medicine bottles on the table and was so angry that he couldn't help but curse out the window.

That night, Honghua climbed over the wall and jumped into the Xinmen courtyard, but she accidentally touched a trap after taking two steps. Although she successfully avoided the cold arrows, she also alarmed the people in the courtyard. She had no choice but to reveal her identity. She couldn't help but sigh: My sister is really good at avoiding traps.

"Master Honghua is saying that Xuanyu hasn't arrived in Southern Xinjiang yet?" After Honghua revealed his identity, he was naturally invited into the living room by Hong'a. Although Hong'a was wary of the sudden appearance of the master of the Poison Insect Valley in the courtyard of Thaxin Sect, she was shocked when she heard her anxiously tell her that Xuanyu had not arrived in Southern Xinjiang as scheduled, and she didn't care about anything else for a while.

"Yes, not only did she not go to Southern Xinjiang, she didn't even come back to Chaoyun City. It's been more than two months and I have no news from my sister." Honghua acted anxious and couldn't help wiping away tears.

"Don't worry, Valley Master Honghua. I will send people to look for her everywhere." Although Hong'a tried to comfort Honghua, he was worried about Xuanyu's disappearance. After all, if anything happened to Xuanyu, it would be difficult for the Poison Insect Valley to cooperate with Yingmen, and his plan to migrate south would also be affected.

"Thank you, Master." Honghua still lowered his head and said gratefully, but in his heart he couldn't help but sneer at the Master of Xin Sect in front of him.

Hong'a saw that Honghua was still wearing the black and white mask. Although the voice was feminine, Honghua could tell that the boy was not very old and was so naive that it was no wonder that he was played around by others. How could he be a match for the old fox Youmei?

"How did the leader of the Honghua Sect find our Xin Sect?" After Hong'a ordered people to release the news of Xun Yanyu, he asked the doubts in his heart.

"My sister once told me that she had been staying in Chaoyun City, so I went straight to Chaoyun City to look for her this time. When I didn't find her, I interrogated other shadow masters in the city and learned that the sect leader was in Linyuan Town. I came here accidentally." Honghua explained half-truthfully without thinking.

Hong'a didn't hear any flaws. Besides, he now trusted Yanyu very much, so he was naturally relieved when facing her sister, so he didn't investigate further.

At the Shadow Gate headquarters, two identically dressed black figures were talking to each other under a pavilion on the lake:

"Why doesn't the Youmei Master personally come out to deal with Hong'a? He is a traitor and a traitor. According to the rules of the Shadow Sect, he should be executed in public to serve as a warning to others."

"Your Majesty has promised to let me handle this matter myself. Why do you want to meddle in other people's business?"

"Please don't misunderstand me, Master Youmei. I am also confused and I am sorry for saying too much."

"It doesn't matter."

Youmei didn't want to say much, just looked up at the moonlight in the sky and sighed softly. He was indeed furious at being betrayed by Hong'a, but after all, he was his own man and had watched him grow up, so he could no longer be cruel to him.

Ten years ago, Youmei had punished Hong'a severely, but he didn't expect that he would still hate her so much. So this time, even if he wanted to punish her, he had to do it through someone else, so that he wouldn't hate himself.
