Chapter 721 Jiang Xuecheng’s Fury
Shenting, the emperor's study room.
In the bright holographic screen, a middle-aged man in uniform was reporting the search results with lowered eyebrows and extremely anxious.
The person displayed on the holographic screen was clearly Chief Li, who was unsuccessful in arresting him.
Chief Li knew he was in the wrong. As time passed by, his subordinates had not been able to find out the news about Su Wan and Ming Ye. His heart had already become cold. How could he dare to take credit for it?
The most important thing now is to prevent the Emperor from taking his official title directly!
Even if you reduce your official position, it is better than quitting the divine court, right?
Chief Li simply doesn't enjoy the life of the privileged class enough!
When he thought about the possibility of being demoted from the divine system, Chief Li's forehead was covered with sweat, and even his joints turned slightly white because of fear.
"You mean, Su Wan escaped?"
Jiang Xuecheng sat on the main seat, with his legs elegantly crossed and his face extremely calm.
——It seems that this ending has been expected.
There was no hint of joy or anger in these faint words. It was just that Jiang Xuecheng was born with a cold feeling that made people feel inexplicably afraid in their hearts.
What's more, Chief Li himself has a guilty conscience!
He stared at the tall and elegant man in front of him. Jiang Xuecheng was obviously sitting on a chair, but he was standing upright, but he had the illusion that he was being looked down upon!
"Yes...yes, Your Highness."
Chief Li silently clenched his fingers, trying to give himself a little strength, but facing the Emperor of the Divine Court thousands of miles away on the holographic screen, he couldn't help but feel chills standing on end.
Even the words are not easy to say!
Where is the air of reprimanding subordinates from before...
When Jiang Xuecheng heard Chief Li's trembling words, he slowly stood up and glanced straight at Chief Li with a pair of cold phoenix eyes.
His thin lips pursed slightly, and his eyes were as sharp as blades.
"How did you promise me so confidently in the first place? What's the result now? Go and get the punishment yourself!"
When their eyes met, Chief Li shuddered involuntarily.
Receive the punishment yourself?
What punishment? !
However, after hearing Jiang Xuecheng's words, Chief Li's knees weakened and he fell half a step backward. After regaining consciousness, he instantly fell to his knees on the ground.
I don’t even dare to take a breath!
Do we really want to remove him from his position and directly remove him from the divine palace?
Chief Li supported the ground with his hands tremblingly. He raised his head slightly and looked at Jiang Xuecheng with wrinkled eyes, his posture as humble as the dust.
"Your Highness, I admit that I did not do my job well. As long as you give me a little more time, I will definitely get Miss Su back."
"I never thought that Miss Su would jump into the river! And she is actually still with the man that the high priest is looking for. We have been hunting that man for more than a month. His methods are extremely high..."
When Jiang Xuecheng heard about jumping into the river, his deep eyes instantly narrowed.
When he heard that Su Wan still jumped into the river with a man, Jiang Xuecheng's expression suddenly changed!
Like a dangerous beast, a strong murderous aura instantly overflowed.
He stared at Chief Li sternly, his dark phoenix eyes locked tightly on Chief Li's face, as if he wanted to pierce Chief Li's entire body!
"What did you say?! Su Wan was with a man..."
And that man is also related to the high priest...
Jiang Xuecheng suddenly fell silent. He clenched his palms tightly and his nails suddenly dug into his palms.
No matter how angry Su Wan was, he had to control his emotions.
As early as the moment they first met, Jiang Xuecheng felt that Su Wan seemed to know him, or rather, he didn't know him, but was looking at someone through himself.
"Please describe today's events in detail, and send me the information about that man directly!"
When Chief Li heard Jiang Xuecheng's request, his face turned pale.
Just now in a hurry, he seemed to suddenly say something he shouldn't have said.
Chief Li knelt deeply on the ground. Now he didn't dare to look at Jiang Xuecheng. He buried his head on the ground and lay prone on the ground.
"Your Highness... I just said the wrong thing. The high priest specifically warned us that the man's identity is confidential and is not allowed to be revealed."
Chief Li deeply resented himself for talking too much, but now it was too late to regret it.
Hearing that Chief Li wanted to remain silent, Jiang Xuecheng sneered coldly, his two sword eyebrows looking very cold.
"Is my status in the Holy Palace still lower than that of a high priest in name? Failure to report the knowledge is more than just a punishment for your inability to do things well!"
"Li Wei, you have to think carefully!"
Jiang Xuecheng's voice was neither high nor low, but every word was like a knife, killing people without seeing blood.
When Chief Li heard these harsh words, his body suddenly shook!
He knelt on the spot tremblingly, and raised his head with some trembling, only to see the newly promoted emperor of the Holy Court looking at him for a moment.
The phoenix eyes are dark and the eyes are the purest black, just like the seemingly calm but turbulent sea water in the middle of the night, making people seem to be swallowed up.
Chief Li started to feel frightened.
He gritted his teeth and finally revealed the details about Ming Ye.
You can't blame him for this.
After all, Su Wan was with Ming Ye. The emperor wanted to find this woman, and sooner or later he would find Ming Ye.
In fact, Chief Li didn't know much. He only knew that the high priest was hunting Ming Ye, and knew Ming Ye's specific appearance and characteristics, as well as the abilities he possessed.
But Ming Ye’s detailed life experience is really unknown.
When Jiang Xuecheng saw the man displayed on the holographic screen, his face suddenly turned cold to freezing point!
Although I have never seen him before, the man in the picture felt familiar at first sight. But when I thought about it carefully, I found that he looked exactly like himself!
It's just that Ming Ye's pair of enchanting emerald eyes were so dazzling that they weakened the other facial features.
What followed was a photo of Su Wan and Ming Ye.
The second picture was captured by surveillance cameras. Ming Ye grabbed Su Wan's hand and ran towards the river.
Su Wan looked panicked, and her hair was ruffled by the wind in the port, but her hand was tightly held by Ming Ye.
This pair of men and women sit in tandem, seemingly as if they are dependent on each other for life and death.
Jiang Xuecheng looked at this scene, and his pupils shrank to the extreme.
Is this the man? !
Because he looks similar to Ming Ye, is Su Wan missing this man through herself?
And the child Su Wan was pregnant with was Ming Ye's, right?
Jiang Xuecheng pursed his lips, and his heart suddenly hurt. He tightened his hands, and his knuckles turned blue-white because of too much force.
Although the man and woman in the picture were running away, they seemed to have unexpectedly found each other.
Pain came from his heart and spread to his limbs and bones.
——After Su Wan gave up her child, he lowered his stance so low, convinced that one day this woman would be moved by him, soften, and get back together.
She would accommodate her in everything, even if Su Wan ignored him.
Jiang Xuecheng has never had the urge to kill like this before!
