I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 257

Chapter 257 - Ingrained longing

Xiang Yun and Old Liang entered Qin Feng City through the south gate, strutting through streets and alleys. Those city guards, commoners and merchants who saw them all subconsciously chose to ignore them.

However, when they reacted, everyone stared at him as if they were looking at a ghost. They were stunned on the spot, and only after a long time did they cry out in astonishment!

It was the same everywhere Xiang Yun went!

The crown prince, who had died in the Silvermoon Forest, was now alive! This explosive news, with the south of the city as the center, began to spread rapidly. In an instant, it shook the entire city!

In the crown prince's residence, all the servants were equally shocked by the sudden return of the crown prince. They waited for Xiang Yun to walk far away before they reacted and knelt down to kowtow!

When they sensed Xiang Yun's aura and stepped into the crown prince's residence, two figures leapt several hundred feet into the air and flew over!

"Your Highness, you're back!"

The crown prince's manor's butler, Zhang San, and guest elder Liu Hong knelt before Xiang Yun with an excited expression. They could not help but reveal expressions of pleasant surprise.

Towards this young master of theirs who had watched them grow up, the two of them felt true concern for him. Seeing that Xiang Yun had returned, they were naturally overjoyed.

When they saw the familiar figure beside Xiang Yun, both of them immediately understood. It must have been Senior Liang who had saved His Highness the crown prince!

As soon as they met, Old Liang ordered the two of them fiercely!

"Zhang San, Liu Hong, the two of you should go to the City Lord's Mansion right now!"

"Huh?" The two of them were stunned.

"There's no need to be surprised. This City Lord of Qin Feng is the main culprit behind the crown prince's murder, there must be some hidden forces in his mansion. All of you go and annihilate them. Don't leave a single one out!"

When Zhang San and Liu Hong heard this, they hurriedly winked at Old Liang before looking in the direction of Xiang Yun.

"Alright, His Highness the crown prince already knows. Stop pretending. From today onwards, you will officially regain your ident.i.ty."

"Ah!" Zhang San and Liu Hong both revealed an astonished expression!

"Hurry up and go handle the matter. If the City Lord's Mansion escapes with a criminal, you two can meet them head on!"

"Aye, yes!"

When Zhang San and Liu Hong heard this, they immediately stood up in excitement. It was just like back in the days when they rushed to the battlefield and received orders!

"I don't need to be a housekeeper anymore!"

"Finally, I don't need to watch over the house and protect the yard all day anymore!"

The two of them spoke at almost the same time. Soon after, a vigorous aura that far surpa.s.sed the Yellow Cloud Realm surged out from within their bodies. It was impressively the cultivation of the peak of the Profound Cloud Realm!

Seeing this, Xiang Yun could only smile bitterly. These two fellows were indeed not easy to deal with. It seemed like it had been arranged by his cheap old man. A Sky Cloud Expert was not enough, he even needed to add two Mystic Cloud Peak experts.

After displaying their aura without any concealment, Zhang San and Liu Hong were in high spirits as they cupped their fists towards Xiang Yun!

"Your Highness, we will take our leave first!"

After saying that, the two of them leaped into the air in a suave manner!

However, just as the two of them stepped over the wall, they were slapped down by Old Liang, who had already sent them tumbling down the wall!

"Aiyo!" The two who had been in high spirits immediately rolled away like rolling gourds, moaning non-stop.

"Senior Liang, what are you doing?" Zhang San looked at Old Liang with a wronged expression, his expression was even uglier than crying.

Old Liang, on the other hand, found it hard to believe. He used a serious tone and said, "You two fools, don't you feel the Qi hidden in Qin Feng City? Such arrogance, you are courting death!"

Hearing this, Zhang San and Liu Hong finally reacted. When they thought of the strange figures that had surged into the city over these past few days, as well as the hidden dangerous aura, their eyes revealed a grave expression.

The two of them did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction as they obediently walked out from the main entrance. They convened their men and began to move quickly!

After Zhang San and Liu Hong left, Xiang Yun looked suspiciously at Old Liang. Actually, Xiang Yun had wanted to ask about what he had just said.

The moment he entered the southern city gate, he could feel that the atmosphere in the entire Qin Feng City had changed!

There were always a few people on the road,

Xiang Yun felt that this was not normal. This was the case for the long-browed man who had sat by the alley along the way and leaned against the wall with the beggar. He had turned a blind eye to the copper coins on the ground, but was still snoring.

There was also a girl sitting in the awning drinking a large bowl of tea and talking vulgarly with the owner. She had a round b.u.t.tocks, but was rubbing the folding fan in her hands while smiling elegantly with the white-clothed scholar.

As well as the middle-aged man wearing a brocade hat and mink fur coat, he seemed as though he had a huge stomach but was still able to stabilize it with one hand and was about to fall down …

These people seemed to have already blended into Qin Feng City, just like the people within the city. Even Xiang Yun of the past would not have been able to see any flaws in them.

But now, he had already condensed his spiritual will, and his observation of many things had already reached the advanced stage. Therefore, the moment he stepped into the familiar Qin Feng City, he discovered many unusual people and objects!

"Old Liang, what is going on in this city? Why are there so many strange people?" Xiang Yun knew, Old Liang definitely knew something.

Old Liang helplessly rubbed his old face as he spoke to Xiang Yun.

I haven't been back here for a long time, so I can't say for sure. After all, I've just returned, and I just have a general idea of what's going on. I'll go and talk to the group of people right now.

"Alright, be careful!"

Although Old Liang spoke in a relaxed manner, Xiang Yun could sense that this group of people was definitely not as simple as he seemed.

At this moment, Old Liang's figure blurred and he disappeared from the Crown Prince's Palace …

Xiang Yun strode forward, looking around and looking at the familiar mansion before him, sighing in his heart.

Regardless of how chaotic the outside world was, at this moment, he truly felt at ease. This was his home. Only after returning here would he be able to truly relax.

After pa.s.sing through the alleyway, they were extremely familiar with each other. Wherever they went, the servants were all extremely astonished. After staring blankly for a while, they kneeled down and kowtowed.

Xiang Yun casually turned to one of the maidservants and asked in a daze, "Little girl, where is Wan'er?"

The servant girl was stunned for a long time before she slowly said, "Sister Wan Er is in your yard!"

Hearing this, Xiang Yun's feet moved like a gust of wind. Without a sound, he flew towards his own courtyard, only leaving behind the startled young maid.

A short while later, Xiang Yun was already standing before the entrance to his own residence. He did not enter through the main entrance, but instead went about his business of flipping over the walls and entering the house.

Xiang Yun's gaze swept the surroundings. The courtyard was empty, not a single person to his left or right.

He leaned against the wall as he walked towards his own room. As they walked, Xiang Yun discovered that there was not a speck of dust on the corners of the walls or the railings. The potted flowers in the garden were extremely beautiful, and droplets of water had condensed on the surface.

When Xiang Yun arrived at the door, he saw that the wooden floor outside the room was still as clean and clean as ever. There was even some moisture on the surface, as if it had just been scrubbed by someone!

Needless to say, Xiang Yun knew who was sweeping the courtyard and his own. Lin Wan'er had always been one to clean her own courtyard, because she was afraid that others might not be meticulous enough. Everything had been done personally by her.

As he lifted his head to look, he heard faint sounds coming from the corner of the room's door. Xiang Yun quietly moved and arrived at the door of the room, but he did not push open the door. Instead, he quietly poked a small hole in the window paper and peeked inside.

In the bright, bright inner room, in front of the table where he usually studied, there was an extremely beautiful girl with a slim figure. Her limpid autumn eyes were focused on the white jade belt that Xiang Yun usually wore.

The young girl stretched out her soft hand and carefully wiped the jade belt with her close-fitting embroidered handkerchief. As she wiped it, she muttered to herself.

"Your Highness, where have you been? Why haven't you returned?"

"Didn't you promise to take Wan'er out of the city for a walk? Let's go put in kites and see the blossoming of apricots. Didn't you say that the osmanthus cake made by the First Pint Aromatic Cake Shop in Dragon City was very delicious? Did you want to take me to try it? "

As she spoke, the young girl's voice was choked with sobs. Her limpid eyes were already filled with tears.

She let her tears flow freely down her face and dripped them onto the jade belt. She once again used the embroidered handkerchief to wipe the tears on the jade and continued mumbling softly.

"Didn't you say that the Wind and Cloud Country is so big? There are so many interesting places and so many interesting things. Do you want to bring me to see them? Why? Why did you fail to fulfill them and disappear?"

"Your Highness, could it be that you've been lying to me? You don't even want to bring me to put the kite back on the table, take me to eat apricot cake, and take me to travel across the country!"

Lin Wan'er couldn't stop sobbing.

"You're a liar, you're a big liar, I don't want to believe you anymore, you're a b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

The woman seemed a little angry. She pressed her lips together and her tears fell like rain, soaking the embroidered handkerchief in her hands. She no longer restrained her emotions, put down the jade belt in her hand, and bent over the table while crying!

These days, even though he had cried countless times and thought that time could wash away the longing in his heart, every time he stepped into this familiar room, tears would always flow down his face!

Lin Wan'er's heart ached as she thought of that familiar face with that wicked smile, that villain who would call her his' little wife 'regardless of her own objections. She would never appear again!

While the room was filled with a sorrowful atmosphere.

The door silently opened and a breeze blew past. The woman kneeling before the table suddenly felt a tightening behind her as her delicate body was embraced by a warm and wide chest!

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Lin Wan'er, who was immersed in her grief, immediately woke up. She was alarmed and wanted to struggle, but a familiar voice rang in her ears.

"Wan'er, from now on, we'll go outside the city to release kites, and we'll go to Dragon City to eat osmanthus cake. I'll take you through the great rivers and mountains of the Seven Stars Continent, I won't lie to you, never!"
