Chapter 2057 Small Bamboo Forest
Following Nangong Ye, the Lord of Connections and Li Hanxue walked into the palace together. At this moment, the ministers were laughing and drinking, and it was very lively.
The door suddenly opened with a bang, and the whole hall became extremely quiet in an instant. You could hear a pin drop. Everyone paused with their wine glasses and looked out of the door at the same time.
Three men appeared in the sight of everyone with snow and wind, and the sky was full of night.
Seeing that it was Prince Nangong Ye, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, "It turned out to be the prince!"
"I thought it was an uninvited guest."
"Who are the two men behind the prince? They always look uncomfortable."
"Who knows, but since the prince came out to greet them personally, they must be important figures, so don't talk nonsense."
Li Hanxue followed Nangong Ye and the Lord of Connections and slowly walked into the warm and glorious hall. The hall was covered with red carpets and brightly lit with golden lights, which was indescribably luxurious and festive.
In such a place, no one would remember that the outside world was actually a cold world of ice and snow.
Li Hanxue's eyes slowly moved upwards and saw Nangong Ming, the emperor of Luoya, sitting high on the dragon throne. The gray-robed old man standing beside him had a sharp gaze. Needless to say, it was the old man Luoxing.
Li Hanxue was shocked, "It turns out that they are all masters of the Tianjun level! And like the Lord of Human Connections, they are all high-level Tianjuns!"
In the past, when Li Hanxue was still a saint, he was short-sighted and didn't know how terrifying the two were. Now he finally understood that the Luoya Empire was such a huge force.
Nangong Ming slowly stood up and said with a smile: "Brother Yang, I've been waiting for you." wavv
The ministers stared at the Lord of Human Connections, all with strange eyes, "Who is this person, who can make the emperor stand up to greet him?"
The Lord of Human Connections glanced around, and then sat down in a seat closest to Nangong Ming.
At the instruction of the Lord of Human Connections, Li Hanxue also sat down next to him, and then sang and danced, saying some meaningless polite words.
Nangong Ming and Old Man Luoxing didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and didn't mention anything about the underworld during the meal.
Li Hanxue also remained silent and didn't speak. However, through his mental power, he felt a piercing gaze that kept sweeping back and forth on him.
No need to think, that person must be Gao Rulan.
Now more than ten years have passed, she is nearly fifty years old, no longer as beautiful as she was back then, there are traces of time in the corners of her eyes, and there are a few strands of white hair between her temples.
On the contrary, Su Youfang is still the same as more than ten years ago, without much change.
Gao Rulan tightly grasped Su Youfang's hand with her right hand, her joints turned white, and her whole body was trembling, "It's him...it's that beast Li Hanxue!"
Su Youfang shouted in a low voice: "Rulan, calm down! This person may not be Li Hanxue. You must not make trouble at the palace banquet now, otherwise the emperor will be furious and the consequences will be disastrous."
Gao Rulan's eyes were full of anger: "Youfang, I will not admit my mistake. That beast must be Li Hanxue! He killed my daughter, I will go to him to settle the score! Don't stop me!"
After that, Gao Rulan stood up angrily and ran to Li Hanxue to confront Li Hanxue face to face.
But Su Youfang pressed her down on the seat and she couldn't move.
"Rulan, calm down. If he is really Li Hanxue, I will definitely ask him for an explanation after the banquet is over." Su Youfang said.
Gao Rulan calmed down a little, but her hateful eyes were unwilling to let Li Hanxue go.
Li Hanxue had already seen every move of the two.
"We have to give them an explanation for this matter. I originally wanted to wait until I killed Songde Tianjun before going to the Su Mansion, but it seems that I can't wait until then."
After a while, the banquet entered a small period, and cheers and noises came one after another. Li Hanxue took advantage of this gap and stood up and said, "Master, I will leave for a while."
The master of connections nodded and said, "Go."
Li Hanxue walked through the crowd and slowly walked to the position where Su Youfang and Gao Rulan were.
"Li Hanxue, is it you?" Su Youfang asked tentatively.
"Li Hanxue, you still have the face to appear in front of me?" Gao Rulan pointed at Li Hanxue fiercely like an angry tiger.
Li Hanxue said expressionlessly, "If you want to know about Xiaoya, come out with me."
After that, Li Hanxue walked straight to the side door of the palace hall and disappeared into the darkness in a short while.
Gao Rulan, who was about to explode, suppressed her anger and hurriedly left her seat and ran out of the side door, followed by Su Youfang.
This is a small bamboo forest, shrouded in thick darkness. The dazzling light of the palace cannot drive away the darkness here. Only the cold snow pressed on the ground, with the little white light, prevented the darkness from completely swallowing people.
Li Hanxue took out the Kaguya stone, and the blue glow illuminated the bamboo forest. The past scene appeared in front of Li Hanxue involuntarily.
Here, Li Hanxue replaced the old Kaguya stone with a new Kaguya stone for Su Xiaoya, and promised to bear all the unbearable things for her. At that moment, Su Xiaoya became truly irreplaceable in Li Hanxue's life.
Unfortunately, with the withering of Su Xiaoya, this promise lost its sustenance.
"Xiaoya, it's not like this. Even if we miss everything, as long as there is a beginning, the ending is destined to be the same."
What Li Hanxue said that day kept echoing in Li Hanxue's mind.
Li Hanxue suddenly felt an extremely cold chill coming from all sides, her body trembling, and she subconsciously wrapped her clothes around her.
At this time, Gao Rulan had already run into the bamboo forest in anger, and Su Youfang was chasing her from behind.
Gao Rulan locked onto Li Hanxue at a glance, then strode in front of Li Hanxue, and her weak hands tightly grasped Li Hanxue's collar, wishing to strangle Li Hanxue to death on the spot.
"Li Hanxue, you beast! For more than ten years, you have killed my daughter for more than ten years, and you have been hiding all the time. Now you are finally willing to show up, right?" Gao Rulan's eyes were full of red veins, "Don't think that this matter has been over for more than ten years, and it can be left unresolved. I tell you, no way! My daughter's life will be repaid with your dog life!"
Li Hanxue had a blank expression on his face. He was not angry or furious, but just stared at Gao Rulan coldly.
Su Youfang, who arrived later, hurried forward and dragged Gao Rulan out ten feet.
Su Youfang knew that more than ten years ago, Li Hanxue had already reached the level of a Saint King. He was even more terrifying now. For such a person to attack Su Youfang and Gao Rulan would be as easy as crushing an ant.
