Chapter 268 Night King
Seeing that Xu Ming seemed hesitant to speak, Huang Taichu immediately made him appear sickly and listless again, not wanting him to say anything more.

"Brother, I haven't asked about any clues regarding the mysterious person yet?"

When Huang Taihong saw Xu Ming collapse, reverting to his sickly and weak state, he couldn't understand why his elder brother wouldn't let him continue asking questions.

“You’ve just returned from Jiangnan, and you must be exhausted from the journey. What you need now is rest.”

"As for the identity of the mysterious person, leave the professional matters to the professionals. I will ask Di Qingtian to help you investigate."

Huang Taichu said.

"Brother, I'm not tired. Let's go find Di Qingtian now."

Upon hearing this, Huang Taihong's eyes lit up. He knew his abilities were limited, but if the world's number one detective helped him, things would be much easier.

“If you don’t listen to your elder brother, then you can go and beg Di Qingtian by yourself and see if he’s willing to help you.”

Hearing his elder brother say this, what else could Huang Taihong say but return to the Han residence to rest?

The next day

My elder brother sent someone to say that there was a lead.

This shocked him. They had found a clue so quickly. No wonder he was the famous Di Qingtian, the greatest detective in the world.

Upon learning that Di Qingtian was at the Huang residence, he rushed there without stopping.

Upon entering the Huang residence, he was led by the steward to meet his elder brother and Di Qingtian in the pavilion in the back garden.

"Lord Di, who is the mysterious person who kidnapped my fiancée?"

Huang Taihong asked impatiently.

"His real name cannot be found; all we can find is that he is a member of Rose's group."

Di Qingtian answered directly without beating around the bush.

rose?

Huang Taihong frowned upon hearing this. Was Rose an individual or an organization?
"The external organizations of Xiliang are similar to those of Dongshang, engaging in activities such as spying on other countries, instigating defections, and sabotage."

Di Qingtian replied.

Why did they kidnap my fiancée?

Upon hearing this, Huang Taihong was not only confused but also baffled.

His fiancée was practically worthless, so why would foreign powers kidnap her?

"do not know"

Di Qingtian shook his head slightly, indicating that he did not know why Qiangwei had taken his fiancée away.

Huang Taihong: "I'm heading to Xiliang right now."

Huang Taichu: "Wait a minute."

Huang Taihong: "Brother, are you going to stop me?"

Huang Taichu: "No, I just hope you can calm down and go to Jiangnan. Seventy of your brothers who went through thick and thin with you have died."

"Are you planning to take all your brothers with you to Xiliang this time?"

Huang Tai-hong: "I don't plan to take them this time."

Huang Taichu: "You're all alone, without any people with you. Who do you think you are? Li Xunhuan, who can slaughter thousands of soldiers, does everyone give you face?"

Huang Taihong: "I..."

Huang Taichu: "Don't rush. I know you have to go. I won't stop you, but wait for everyone to finish speaking."

Huang Taihong followed his elder brother's gaze to Di Qingtian. Could it be that Di Qingtian had made some arrangements?
"Your older brother knows your temper, so he asked me to pull some strings and get you in charge of the night watchmen?"

Di Qingtian said.

A night watchman?
Huang Taihong's forehead was filled with questions. What was a night watchman?
"The night watchman and the rose and the fear are the same in nature; they are our Da'an external organizations."

"The leader of the night watchmen is generally referred to as the Night King by outsiders."

"Six months ago, the previous Night King died due to a qi deviation."

“Many people are eyeing this position. Your older brother and I pulled a lot of strings to get you promoted to the new Night King.”

Di Qingtian explained to Huang Taihong what a night watchman was.
"Am I...can I do it?"

Huang Taihong was deeply moved. He knew that his elder brother must have paid a considerable price to allow him to take charge of the night watchmen.

Becoming the Night King and owning an organization is indeed better than him going on an adventure in Xiliang alone.

At the same time, he worried that he was not capable enough to take on the task.

After all, he's too young. If the seasoned night watchmen don't respect him, he might make a mess of things.

"You have to do it, whether you can or not, unless you don't care about your fiancée."

Huang Taichu said.

"You are the youngest general in the history of the Da'an Dynasty. I believe you can do it."

Di Qingtian patted Huang Taihong on the shoulder encouragingly.

"I'll go and prepare right away."

Huang Taihong knew he could not back down and prepared to set off for Xiliang immediately.

"Wait a minute." "Princess Anping was raped and murdered. The original marriage procession from Xiliang will escort Xu Zhengqi back to Xiliang tomorrow to face trial."

“Our Da’an will also send a delegation to go.”

"It will be easier for you to join the delegation and go to Xiliang with them."

Di Qingtian said.

Huang Taihong expressed his understanding, thanked his elder brother and Di Qingtian, and then left.

"Aren't you afraid something will happen to him in Xiliang?"

Although Di Qingtian thought it was good for Huang Taichu to train his younger siblings, he still felt it was a bit risky to send him to Xiliang.

"With me here, he won't get into any trouble; at most, he'll suffer a little."

Huang Taichu said casually.

When Di Qingtian heard Huang Taichu say that, he didn't bother to care anymore.

I wanted to have dinner at the Huang residence before leaving, but Huang Taichu was too stingy.

He asked for my help, but I didn't even thank him, he wouldn't give me a meal, and he just kicked me out.

"I never expected Wei Nanzhou to be so lucky."

Huang Yu'er felt it was such a pity.

They had already tricked Wei Nanzhou into going to Changbai Mountain using the magic medicine, and with so many traps and mechanisms, it seemed impossible for Wei Nanzhou to escape.

Unexpectedly, the White Lotus Sect's Grandmaster Zhiqiang rescued Wei Nanzhou.

But thinking about it, it's understandable. Now that he's found the treasure trove of divine medicine, how could Wei Nanzhou not seek the protection of a Grandmaster-level expert?

"Although it didn't kill him, crippling him is a good thing."

It wasn't that his cultivation was destroyed, nor that his hands or feet were severed.

His third leg was crippled by a trap.

He was rendered impotent and became a eunuch.

"Kill her, I'm going to kill her..."

Wei Nanzhou, lying on the bed, kept calling out this sentence.

He believed that Wei Qianlan had used the "miracle medicine" as bait to trick him into being deceived.

She thought about how she had been defiled by a man and was now a eunuch, all because of Wei Qianlan.

He now has only one thought: to kill Wei Qianlan.

"Young master, we must be patient. She wields considerable influence within the sect right now, we..."

Second Elder Shi Laiping wanted to persuade Wei Nanzhou to calm down.

"No, I'm going to kill her, I'm going to kill her right now..."

Wei Nanzhou said with a ferocious expression.

"Young master, do you want to kill her for a moment of pleasure, or do you want to capture her and torture her slowly, making her wish she were dead?"

"I asked Fu Jiusong, who was standing to the side."

Upon hearing this, Wei Nanzhou abruptly stopped shouting the words "kill Wei Qianlan" and turned to look at Fu Jiusong.

Killing Wei Qianlan would relieve my hatred.

But his pain told him that he couldn't let Wei Qianlan die so easily; that would be too lenient on her.

We must torture her, making her wish she were dead.

“Our people have discovered a person in the world who looks exactly like the saint.”

"If we can capture her and switch her with the saintess, then we can get what we want."

Fu Jiusong replied.

"Arrest them! Arrest them right now!"

Wei Nanzhou said.

"This one……"

Fu Jiusong looked somewhat troubled.
