Xie Xun's expression turned grim. Fengyu had gone out of the city to Xiangguo Temple yesterday, while Lin Cheng had returned in disarray in the middle of the night. Who did he go to kill? Three hours after Fengyu left the city, Xie Xun spotted Lin Cheng leading a squad of Forbidden Army out of the city. At the time, he thought little of it, assuming the emperor had entrusted Lin Cheng with some task outside the city, and considering Lin Cheng was soon to be married, he likely wouldn't be sent on a distant mission.
"Feiying, Nuanyang, bring the guards and follow me!" Xie Xun ignored Lin Xiao and Zhang Boxin's argument, leading his men in a swift charge out of the city. Only after leaving the city did Xie Xun realize that if Fengyu had truly encountered danger, Zhang Da would certainly be no match for Lin Cheng and the Forbidden Army. If Fengyu were truly at death's door, why hadn't she torn off the Soul Suppressing Pearl?
