Chapter 138 Discovery
The next day was calm and nothing special happened.
Han Xu finally slept until noon again. When he woke up, Qing'er served him and there were delicious home-cooked dishes that had been prepared long ago. Han Xu felt very satisfied.
"Ding!" Han Xu was enjoying his rare leisure time while using the system to detect nearby martial arts.
Yesterday, Tang Yurou was considered to have offended her to the end. Han Xu had to guard against the revenge of the Tang Sect.
It took less than a moment for the system to send feedback. No Tang Sect martial arts were found within five kilometers, nor any unfamiliar martial arts.
However, there was a discovery that surprised Han Xu even more.
"Buddhist martial arts, Vajra Handprint, detected!"
"What?" Han Xu almost spit out the food in his mouth, wondering why a Buddhist master came to the royal city?
"Will it be because of the exposure of the spring hunt?"
Han Xu remembered that when he killed Wu Ji, he used the Buddhist martial arts Vajra Handprint, so Han Xu wondered if the Buddhist master came to the royal city at this time because of him.
He thought of the Buddhist master he had met in the North. At that time, Han Xu's cultivation was still shallow, and he could not see his depth. But now thinking back, that ascetic monk-like figure is definitely one of the best masters in the world today.
Even now, Han Xu is still not sure that he can beat the ascetic monk.
The range that the system can detect is five kilometers in radius. This range is not big, but it is not small either. Coincidentally, Jubao Tower is within the five-kilometer range.
"There are two of us in total, and I don't know what to do." Han Xu thought while eating the food carefully prepared by Qing'er.
However, Han Xu was not overly worried. Buddhist disciples usually do not care about worldly affairs and do not compete with the world. As long as they do not take the initiative to provoke them or expose their identities, there will be no trouble.
After eating, Han Xu went to the palace again.
Since there is an opportunity to enter and exit the palace at will, of course, we must make good use of it.
There are still two of the ten extraordinary skills left, namely Han Luoling's Mirror Flower and Water Moon and Bai Yiyi's Smoke and Waves Misty Steps.
Both skills are just at the level of minor achievements, and the points downloaded for Misty Steps are slightly more.
Han Xu always feels that something big will happen soon, so he is eager to improve his strength so that he can protect the people he wants to protect when needed.
Bai Yiyi has become his maid and swore allegiance. As long as Han Xu is willing, he can keep her by his side, so Han Xu puts the download of Misty Steps last.
Because he doesn't know how long he can maintain his identity as the captain of the Tiance Army, the top priority is Han Luoling's Mirror Flower and Water Moon.
Moreover, Han Xu prefers to stay with Han Luoling every day from the bottom of his heart.
The guards of the palace already know Han Xu's identity, so now when he enters the palace, no one comes to question him, and he is let go directly.
He drove all the way to Weiyang Palace with ease, and before he arrived, the system sent a message.
Han Xu followed the prompts of the system and soon felt a strange breath in Weiyang Palace. This breath had never appeared in the royal city before, and it was a breath full of demonic nature.
"Who is in Weiyang Palace?" Han Xu quickened his pace. When he walked into Weiyang Palace, he found that there was nothing unusual here on the surface.
Eunuch Wang was still enthusiastic, the palace maids were doing their jobs, and Han Luoling was still sitting under her favorite tree, staring at the sky in a trance.
Everything looked quiet and peaceful, without any abnormality.
But Han Xu knew that the demonic aura was hidden in Weiyang Palace, in the rockery in the lake in the backyard.
"Han Xu, you don't have to come every day. You should go to the academy to practice more when you have time." Han Luoling was happy to see Han Xu, but she didn't forget to remind him.
Especially after Han Wu came, she became more aware of the urgency of time.
"Practicing is not as important as accompanying my sister. What's more, as soon as I enter the academy, that Taoist Mo will follow me and insist that I practice Taoism with him." Han Xu complained.
"This is a good thing. In my opinion, that Taoist Mo is very unusual. If you can practice with him, it may not be a bad thing." Han Luoling said, and suddenly an idea came to her.
It seems that Mo Wen attaches great importance to Han Xu. Thinking of the last time Mo Wen called Han Xu a Taoist, Han Luoling thought of another shortcut.
If Han Xu follows Mo Wen to practice, then Mo Wen will definitely protect Han Xu, and Mo Wen's strength should be very strong.
Compared with Han Luoling's previous plan, this method is undoubtedly faster and safer.
"I have to find an opportunity to find out Mo Wen's background." Han Luoling thought to herself, but this is just one more option. If Han Xu doesn't like it, Han Luoling won't force it.
She thinks that she used hypnosis to make Han Xu go against his heart to pursue power, which is already very sorry for him, so she doesn't want to force Han Xu to do anything.
Thinking of using hypnosis on Han Xu, Han Luoling felt guilty, so she asked: "Han Xu, if you find out that your sister has deceived you in the future, will you blame your sister?"
Han Xu was stunned. He guessed that Han Luoling was referring to the hypnosis he had used on him, so he said: "Silly, how could I blame you?"
"No matter what you do, I won't blame you."
"Really?"
"Really."
Han Luoling suddenly smiled, and this smile was like a spring breeze. Han Xu saw it and felt tender in his heart.
While Han Luoling was drinking tea, Han Xu asked casually: "Sister, has anyone come to Weiyang Palace recently?"
"There are quite a lot of palace maids and eunuchs coming in and out every day, what's wrong?"
"I mean, have any outsiders come?"
Han Luoling suddenly restrained the smile on her face. She looked at Han Xu with her beautiful eyes, wondering if he knew Han Wu?
But this is impossible. With Han Xu's cultivation, how could he find Han Wu?
Even if Han Wu was standing in front of Han Xu, if Han Wu didn't want to, Han Xu would never find him. You know, Han Wu is best at hiding.
"How could there be outsiders? This is the palace." Han Luoling said.
Han Xu was a little puzzled: Didn't Han Luoling know that someone sneaked into Weiyang Palace?
He stood up and walked slowly towards the lake. Han Luoling looked at his back, her face a little panicked.
She knew that Han Wu was hiding in the rockery in the middle of the lake.
Han Xu came to the lake and looked around, his eyes intentionally or unintentionally sweeping over the rockery.
Han Wu, who was hiding in the rockery, looked at Han Xu's figure and was also surprised.
A dagger slipped silently from his sleeve and was tightly held in his palm.
If he was really discovered, Han Wu would not mind killing him. Although Han Xu's identity was special, he was too insignificant compared to his master's plan. If it weren't for Han Luoling's repeated insistence, Han Xu would have been abandoned as a pawn.
After Han Xu came to the lake, he did not move further. If he did not move, Han Wu would naturally not move either.
For a while, the atmosphere was quiet and a little weird. A gust of wind swept past, rippling the calm lake surface.
After standing for a while, Han Xu turned around without doing anything and said to Han Luoling: "Sister, I just found that the scenery of your yard is really nice. No wonder you like to sit here and bask in the sun."
Han Luoling let out a long breath and smiled: "Come to see me often if you like. Anyway, you can come and go freely now."
The reason why Han Xu turned around was because he was sure that the man hiding in the lake had no ill will towards Han Luoling, otherwise, with Han Wu's strength, it would be a piece of cake to deal with Han Luoling.
Since he is not an enemy, he should be someone Han Luoling knows.
Han Xu knew that Han Luoling's identity was not simple. She didn't know where the mirror flower and water moon she practiced came from. Perhaps it was the power of the person in the lake.
"It's windy outside, let's go in." Han Luoling pulled Han Xu and walked into the house. She was always a little worried that Han Wu would be discovered by Han Xu.
Han Luoling said as they walked: "Han Xu, I'm a little bored staying in the palace all day. I'll talk to Wu Lie in a few days and ask you to go out with me for a walk, how about that?"
"Okay, I have to attend the auction at Jubaolou tomorrow, and I'll take you out to see the world after that."
After the siblings left, Han Wu quietly put away the dagger.
"He is that useless young master, it's been a long time since we last met."
