Chapter 716 The New Whereabouts of the Mistress

After nightfall, Xia Fan stayed at the villa.

Although she often stayed in the villa due to official duties before, this time after the princess regained consciousness, she gave him half of the palace compound on the mountainside, nearly a thousand acres including the house and the courtyard, allowing him to live directly from the villa. It became a settlement.

Xia Fan chose a two-story building as his study and master bedroom. The rest of the building remained basically unchanged - after all, a house of about 300 square meters was definitely more than enough for living.

Just as he was repeatedly looking at the patio paintings drawn by Luo Qingqing and others, the maid outside the house knocked on the door and said, "Sir, the person in charge of Ninghua Bank wants to see you."

"Oh?" Xia Fan thought for a moment, then realized who the other party was referring to, "Invite him in."

"Yes." Shortly after the maid left, two sets of footsteps sounded in the corridor.

The door opened, and the first person to walk into the study was "Mr. Three Eyes" Felayton, and behind him was a masked woman wearing a purple robe.

Xia Fan suddenly understood that the person who really wanted to see him was the latter.

"Your Highness, I wonder if Jinxia's life can satisfy you?" he asked with a smile.

"Except for the difference between the food and Nata Ting, I can't fault anything." Hua Lin lifted the veil and sat down opposite Xia Fan, "And compared to the prison life, here is much freer, honest Say, I like it very much.”

"As long as you're satisfied." Xia Fan stood up and poured her a cup of green tea for himself. Since there are currently many ships coming from the West Pole, Princess Muye's identity has been kept secret to prevent Natadine from discovering that she has escaped from the Holy Wing Islands. The person in charge of the bank is Felaiton. This is probably why she chose to visit in the middle of the night. "So, why did Your Highness come to see me this time?"

Hua Lin looked at Feleyton, who nodded and replied, "Are you planning to go to Baiyao Mountain? My master hopes to go with you."

Xia Fan was slightly startled, "Where did you get this news?"

The Salvation Cult envoy was visiting in the name of a caravan. The only people who knew the details of Lord Shengtian were Yan Qing, Qian and others from the Privy Council of the Secretariat. During the meeting, only Ning Wanjun and himself were present, so Feleyton was able to obtain relevant information. The information is really a bit strange.

"You don't need to suspect that I bribed people in the government." Feleyton said bluntly, "This is just a conjecture I made through various reports from the Secretariat - Jinxia left the more fertile Liu and Qingzhou untouched, but gave priority to them. To send troops to Ganzhou, which is barren, and to combine the news that the Salvation Cult is moving to Ganzhou, it must be that this area has unknown special value, which makes it worthwhile for both parties to do so. "

"But this can only deduce the overall situation. How did you know that Jinxia was in contact with the Salvation Cult?"

"Because the guards patrolling the streets have changed - please don't get me wrong, I didn't pry into the arrangements of the police station, it's just the bank... No, the bank can always easily obtain all kinds of information, and the teller will not be aware of it. "Whether there is any high-value information in these chats." Felaiton spread his hands, "It may be difficult for outsiders to detect the movement of patrollers, but it is not difficult for locals to change their daily deployment when important guests come. , but the Secretariat did not make any notification, which shows that the identity of the visitor is quite sensitive... just like Her Highness Hua Lin, so I guessed that the visitor is the ambassador of the Salvation Sect."

Xia Fan looked at him in surprise for a long time, "Did you do the same in Nata Ting and King Sheila?"

"Yes, this is a personal habit." Feleyton admitted. "Compared to buying key figures, this kind of scattered intelligence collection is more covert. Even just ordinary conversations can reveal the subtle changes in an area. . If you find this behavior offensive, I can only sincerely apologize..."

"But the habit of collecting intelligence cannot be changed, right?" Xia Fan joked.

"This... as long as the bank exists for one day, it will inevitably collect a lot of information, unless..."

"Okay, I don't mean to blame you." Xia Fan waved his hand, interrupting Mr. Three Eyes. Although he knew that this person was very well-informed when he was in the Holy Wing Islands, he still underestimated his intelligence talent. He had only been in Jinxia for less than half a month, and he had already covered every corner of the city. He even wondered if asking him to be a bank president was a bit unfair. "Then how did you know that I was going to Baiyao Mountain?"

You must know that this is a matter decided in today's meeting, and it is absolutely impossible to reflect it in the streets and alleys.

"This is my guess about your personal temperament." Seeing that Xia Fan was not angry, Feleyton obviously relaxed a lot, "You are willing to go to the Sacred Wing Islands for adventure, and you can also form a deep relationship with the Dragonborn, which shows that you You are good at accepting new things, and you are willing to personally witness the secrets hidden around the world. If there is something key hidden in Baiyao Mountain, I think you will most likely choose to go and see it for yourself."

Xia Fan suddenly realized something, "Could it be that... the key to the zodiac also points in the direction of Baiyao Mountain?"

Felayton nodded, "This is why His Highness wants to come to see you."

"After coming to Jinxia, ​​we entrusted Master Qianyan to provide a drop of blood to find the whereabouts of the mistress. As a result, the key to the zodiac pointed to the southwest of Shenzhou - according to the map, it was surrounded by a desperate mountain. It was indeed built The perfect place for a tomb.”

Xia Fan had known about this before. For the vampires, the style of the tomb depends on two points: one is that it is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and the other is that it is a special place of interest. In order to satisfy this hobby, many vampires died on the way to find the cemetery. After all, the combination of the two can be equivalent to extremely dangerous, which is not beyond the reach of those with strong abilities.

His evaluation of this is that they are too long-lived and have nothing better to do.

But then again, doesn't this mean that Madam Stitch has been to the East a long time ago, and left behind the blood of the living dead?

Now the Salvation Church is also active in that area. Is there any connection between them?

"I see." Xia Fan said after a moment's silence, "Do you want to continue looking for the whereabouts of the mistress?"

"If the mistress does not show up, your life cannot be said to be absolutely safe." Feleton stroked his chest and said, "I don't know when Talus will discover the secret of Princess Muye's escape, but once he finds out, he will definitely take action. Therefore, finding the mistress as soon as possible is not only for your highness, but also for the protection of Jinxia City."

"Okay, I agree that she will go with me." Xia Fan promised, "But I also hope that you two understand that whether you can find Mistress Stitch or not, Jinxia will protect your safety - whether Natatin sends a high-level wizard or the entire ocean fleet, this will not change."

Feleton stood up, bent down and said, "Then your highness, the princess is in your hands."
