Chapter 528 Li Xiangyue "..." The girl's wrist was restrained and her face turned pale. She looked at Jiang Wen with some fear in her eyes, not knowing what to say for a moment. It was only when Jiang Wen reminded her for the second time that she came to her senses. "I, I don't know anything." Jiang Wen couldn't help but feel a little amused when he heard this. At the beginning, Li Yunshang also had seal characters on his wrist, and he asked what they were. Li Yunshang said that when the descendants of the Li family were born, the ancestral temple would engrave seal characters on them to prevent the bloodline of the descendants of the Li family from being lost among the people. Jiang Wen was surprised that his money was stolen by a thief today, but he didn't expect that he could catch a member of the Li royal family. Although the other party did not admit it, the seal characters on his hand could not deceive anyone. How could an ordinary thief know such a secret? There was even a spiritual energy hidden in the seal characters. Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say it, Jiang Wen slowed down his tone slightly. He released the girl's wrist and picked up the dagger. "I once met a descendant of the Li family like you. She was quite kind." Jiang Wen said slowly. "We became friends and experienced many things. Later, she returned to the imperial capital, and I could no longer contact her."
Hearing Jiang Wen's words, the girl looked up in astonishment. She just stared at him carefully for a while before asking, "You, aren't you here to arrest me?" "Why would I arrest you? I have no grudge against you. I don't know the emperor of Daqian, and I have nothing to do with him." Jiang Wen said with a smile. "...Huh." The girl seemed to be relieved, rubbed her sore wrist and stood up. She put away the short knife and looked at the boy behind her. He pulled him in front of him, and then said to Jiang Wen apologetically: "It was Gouzi who didn't know you and stole your things. If you are angry with him, you can beat him or punish him. I only ask you to spare his life so that he can live." There was some reluctance hidden in the girl's words, but she could only pretend. When they fought just now, she knew that the other party was someone she could not even hope to be like, and he was probably the monk in the rumors. Not to mention the two of them, even if all the members of the thief leader's gang were here, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to handle the matter with just this man. One can only blame the gang members for being blinded by money and provoking someone they shouldn't have provoked. The boy was so frightened when he heard the girl's words that he trembled all over. He was like a chicken that had been caught in a heavy rain, trembling in the bleak autumn wind. He walked to Jiang Wen tremblingly and lowered his weak body. Jiang Wen was also surprised by the look of him ready to be killed. He did not choose to take action, but looked at the two of them curiously: "Since you know that you will pay the price for causing trouble, why do you dare to steal from me?" "Just because the gang members said that you don't have much strength, they asked us to test you. If you are really just an ordinary person, then we will take your money." The boy swallowed and told Jiang Wen the reason in a trembling voice. After hearing this, Jiang Wen became quite interested in the gang the child mentioned. He waved his hands at the two of them and said, "Forget it, I'll spare your life for now. I'm somewhat interested in this girl's identity, why don't you come with me?" The girl listened to Jiang Wen's words and knew that this matter was not going to work. She could only bow her hands to thank him and followed him obediently. Neither of them thought of running away. After all, if this person was a cultivator, it would be useless for them to escape to anywhere. The girl knew how powerful cultivators were. She had also seen how majestic those immortals who could call the wind and rain were. Entering a restaurant, Jiang Wen asked the waiter to book a private room for him. The single room overlooks the sea and the sky, and you can overlook Izumo Port. In the distance, the sun sets, and the fiery red sunset glows against the sea. It is like an endless sea of fire, how magnificent it is. After ordering some food, Jiang Wen casually threw two talismans onto the wall. A magical power surrounded the entire single room, and it was difficult for people outside to hear the sounds inside the single room. Seeing such a magical method, the boy and girl completely gave up. They sat at the table uneasily, looking at the sumptuous food, but they had no appetite. "Eat, eat quickly." Jiang Wen said casually. "I have cast a spell here, no one outside can hear what we say."
"I wonder what the Immortal wants to ask us?" The girl mustered up the courage to ask. "It's the same question as before. Are you from the royal family, Li?" "...Yes." The girl nodded with difficulty, admitting her identity. This made the boy next to her stunned. He didn't expect that the sister he had been with for many days actually had such a noble identity. The Daqian Li family is a royal family. Everyone in them is a high-ranking person, so how could they possibly associate with a beggar like him? The boy's mind was confused, but Jiang Wen nodded happily. After drinking a glass of wine, he looked at the girl and asked, "Which branch of the Li family are you from?" "My lord, I am from the lineage of the King of Zhongshan. My father is King of Zhongshan Li Zhi, and I was born to a concubine." The girl explained her origins one by one, not daring to hide anything. Her name is Li Xiangyue, the daughter of the King of Zhongshan of Daqian. Although she is not the legitimate daughter of the princess, her status is not low. As for why she ended up in Izumo Port and became a member of a thief gang, it was difficult for Li Xiangyue to explain. "But that day, my sister and I were admiring flowers in the mansion, and then my mother rushed in covered in blood. She said in a panic that something had happened in the capital, and asked my sister and I to escape quickly. Not long after, a group of imperial guards came to the mansion and captured my mother and brothers. My sister was also captured to protect me, and I had no choice but to leave the capital along the underground river..." Thinking back to what happened at that time, Li Xiangyue is still a little frightened. From the daughter of a high and mighty prince to a small thief fallen into the mortal world, the difference in status is so huge. This difference between heaven and earth is difficult for ordinary people to accept. Li Xiangyue said that she later came to Izumo Port with a merchant ship and rescued several orphans. Because of her good skills, she was chosen by the local gang Shuilong Gang and became the leader. On weekdays, she was in charge of some streets and alleys in the black market of Izumo Port, mainly stealing some property from the big fish. This time, stealing from Jiang Wen was like hitting a wall. After listening to the girl's statement, Jiang Wen was in deep thought. From her, he learned that the capital had undergone a major change half a year ago. As for what happened, no one knew. It is only able to affect the kings and princes, so I am afraid there will be a big storm in the imperial capital. "Since you are a descendant of the Li family, you have some fate with me. I want to go to the imperial capital. If you don't mind, you can go with me. I will ensure that you have food and clothing." Jiang Wen said to the girl. Hearing this, the girl was delighted at first, then seemed to remember something and her expression gradually became silent. Jiang Wen looked at her and thought that she didn't like being controlled by him, so he frowned and asked, "You don't want to?" "Not really!" Li Xiangyue shook her head quickly. "It's just that there are some things here that I can't let go of." "What's the matter?" Jiang Wen asked. "I have some orphans to foster here. If I leave, they will definitely be punished by the Water Dragon Gang..." Li Xiangyue said in a low voice. "So that's what it is?" Jiang Wen laughed. "This is easy to handle." "You should eat your fill first, and then I'll help you fulfill your wish." (End of this chapter)
