Chapter 812: Negotiations

nd guns, shouting, "Never again! Never again! Never again!"The soldiers and commoners of Ta Yue looked at each other in dismay, for the emperor had been killed. What could they do nowAs soon as the vo...What does this man want with the masked man and Sleeping Beauty's lives

Or... could he be using this to his advantage Maybe he wants to draw the Masked Man and Sleeping Beauty out, pitting them against each other while he stays hidden, reaping the benefits of their conflict

Thinking of this result, An Xuetang slightly narrowed her eyes, her icy gaze fixed on the man, "Do you want us to charge ahead and you pick up the ready-made ones"

The man hadn't expected An Xuetang to think this way about him. He felt a surge of anger instantly, but then he thought again, if he were in An Xuetang's position, perhaps he would think the same way too.

"So, he took a deep breath and sighed. 'You can think what you want,' he said, 'but I have only one request: will you agree or not Just give me an answer.'"

At this moment, An Xuetang's mind was lost in thought. She narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "May I ask you a question"

"You asked."

"As for what's happening now, how much do you know Who is that person And what about the sleeping beauty, who is she"

The man said without hesitation, "This kind of thing, naturally you have to discover it yourself. What do you want to know Investigate for yourself. The old man has nothing to say."

"...“

An Xue Tang felt like rolling her eyes at him, but his answer was also within her expectations.

Since he wasn't willing to say, she didn't have much else to ask.

But there was one more important question she had to ask, “Does that formation that person used, is that something you also know”

The man narrowed his eyes slightly. "That's right."

"Isn't that what happened to King Beijiang, you know"

Hearing An Xue Tang's question, the man glanced at the bed behind her, then at Mo Yun Jing's pale face. A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, "You chose a good man."

"...." Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

An Xuetang's eyebrows furrowed slightly. She wasn't trying to get him to praise Mo Yunjing; after all, she knew how good Mo Yunjing was and didn't need him to say it.

After the man finished speaking, seeing An Xuetang's helpless expression, he chuckled and continued, "The formation imposed by the King of Beijiang on him is such that as long as the King of Beijiang does nothing, he will be fine."

An Xuetang frowned, "What do you mean by that"

“Those trapped within this formation can actually feel everything happening outside, including your words. In other words, King Beijiang has always known you were by his side and everything that happened around him. Because he knew you were in danger, he excitedly depleted his own power to break out of the formation. That's why he exhausted eighty percent of his power.”

Speaking of this, the man took another deep look at Mo Yunjing. "Of course, if he had only rushed out of the formation, his internal organs wouldn't have been injured so badly. It was because as soon as he rushed out of the formation, before he could even recover, he used his internal energy again. In this situation, it would be strange if he wasn't covered in injuries."

"!"

An Xue Tang clenched her fists. It turned out that her little Ah Jing knew everything that had happened around her. No wonder he didn't ask anything after she woke up.

At this moment, she couldn't tell what she was thinking, and suddenly looked at the man, "Since you also know this kind of formation, do you have any way to make King Beijang recover You guys actually have a way, right"

The man glanced deeply at An Xue Tang. He wanted to say there was no way, but seeing Mo Yun Jing's pale face, he remembered the favors he had received in the past. After a moment of silence, he nodded slightly, “To fully recover, it still depends on King Beijiang’s constitution, but this old man does have a way to help him regain his power.”

An Xuetang's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing his words, "Really"

"That's true, but don't get too happy just yet. This old man can help Bei Jiang Wang recover his power, but this matter has to wait until you return to Bei Jiang Wangfu. If this old man makes a move now and lets him know I'm here, then next, you... I'm afraid none of you will be able to leave this place. Don't underestimate that person's ruthlessness."

As the man spoke, he walked over to Mo Yun Jing's bedside and, with a casual movement, lifted his wrist and felt his pulse.

Seeing the change in his pulse, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it, as if nothing had happened.

He then turned to An Xuetang, "The princess of Beijang is truly formidable. The current damage to King Beijang's internal organs shouldn't be this extent. It seems the medicine the Princess of Beijang gave King Beijang has a powerful effect."

"An Xuetang had no desire to hear his flattery now. Her icy face stared at him, and she said coldly, "How is the King of Beijang now Is there a way to cure him like this"

The man nodded slightly, "Didn't he already agree to treat the North Border King for the North Border Princess Though his treatment won't be completely effective, it will be enough to deceive you. He will use qigong to heal the North Border King. By then, the North Border King may not fully recover, but he will definitely recover seven or eight out of ten. Once this matter is settled, I will naturally go to the North Border王府 and help the North Border King recover completely."

Having said that, the man's thoughtful eyes fixed on An Xuetang. "Of course, everything I said is contingent on... you and the others from Beijiang Wang keep your word and leave him and that woman's lives to me."

An Xue Tang's brows furrowed. "What do you mean by 'leaving his life' Do you want us to capture him and that woman"

The man chuckled softly, "Old man, that's not what I meant. And the Princess of Beijang underestimates me too much. To be honest, with your current strength, you can't kill him at all. Even if he has that woman as his weakness, you still can't hurt him."

Only he knows how strong he truly is.

An Xuetang narrowed her eyes slightly. She didn't quite believe that the person was truly that powerful, that so many of them couldn't even harm him

Right now, she had a knot in her stomach and was already making bets in her mind, determined to show him.

Let's see if she, An Xuetang, can actually hurt that masked man.

But she definitely wouldn't mention this to the man in front of her right now. Her indifferent eyes stared at him, "So what do you want me to do now"

“Here you can do whatever you please. If he runs away with that woman, do not send anyone after him. All I ask is for you to do this one thing.”

An Xuetang frowned, this man's meaning... that his request was only to let them release the masked man and Sleeping Beauty

The man looked at An Xuetang's expression, he shook his head slightly, "Well, it's almost time. If the old man doesn't leave now, I'm afraid I'll be discovered. Everything the old man said just now, have you agreed to it"

"How can this concubine trust you What if, after following your instructions, you ultimately fail to help King Beijiang How will this concubine fare then"

"If I can help you stop those people from entering the forest to their deaths, won't you believe me If even I can achieve this, and you still don't trust me, then there's nothing more I can do."

"After saying that, the man seemed to think of something. “Yes, Lord Beijiang has a confidant named Yunliu and the maidservant Ninger by your side. As long as I can rescue them from the formation before they start their destruction mode, will you be willing to believe me”

As for his proposal, An Xue Tang raised an eyebrow, "Alright, as long as you can protect them well, this concubine will naturally trust you."

The man curled his lips into a smile. "In order to make your men trust me, wouldn't you have to give me something to prove your identity"

An Xuetang thought for a moment, then immediately took a pouch of medicinal herbs from her waist and handed it to him.

The man had just taken it when he was about to say something, but then his ear twitched. An Xuetang also heard a noise from the masked man's room at this moment, and she was stunned too.

The man hurried away, "By the way, for the next three days, no matter what you hear, don't believe it."his, she had written a letter to Huaduo'er. The successful resolution of Ye Er’s matter was greatly due to Huaduo’er’s assistance. Without Huaduo’er whispering in the emperor’s ear, resolving Ye Er’s...
