Prince Pampers the Escaping Consort

C98 Yan Xiaoxi's Inheritance

The reason why rumours were rumours was because the people would always exaggerate their legends. As for whether or not Long Chenxuan had succeeded in becoming an immortal, no one knew.

Nangong Lin had always respected and respected Long Xuanchen, and he had always taken him as an example.

I always thought that he would live in seclusion in some paradise, I didn't think that this time, royal father would actually say that he passed away.

"This is a long story, it has a lot to do with the Immortal Spirit Island." Long Xuanchen and him truly liked Xian Mei'er. In the beginning, they were like Xian Mei'er expressing her love, and when Xian Mei'er rejected the two of them, they had thought that she had someone in her heart.

Later on, he found out that there was another mystery behind it.

So it turned out that Xian Mei Er was a person from the Immortal Spirit Island, and she was also the Holy Maiden of the Immortal Spirit Island.

According to his investigation, the Holy Maiden of the Celestial Spirit Island could not marry anyone outside the island. Otherwise, her husband would be brought back by her clansmen and burned as an example to make an example for others.

Ever since Long Xuanchen and Xian Mei Er were married, Nangong Xiao hadn't seen the two of them again until a few years later. Fairy Mei Er had entrusted him with the treasure map and left without leaving a single word behind.

Until now, Nangong Xiao was unsure whether the map was real or fake. She gave him to Nangong Lin in an attempt to test him.

"Celestial Spirit Island?" After speaking of the Immortal Spirit Island, Nangong Lin immediately turned serious.

He had always been very curious as to what sort of mysteries lay within this mysterious island.

Every spring, when they went to offer sacrifices, they would enter the island blindfolded. No one knew where the Immortal Spirit Island was nor how to enter it.

The people on the Immortal Spirit Island had all sorts of extraordinary abilities that couldn't be underestimated.

Yan Xiaoxi is related to the Immortal Spirit Island, so why is father so nervous?

"The woman that Long Chenxuan married all those years ago was the Holy Maiden of the Immortal Spirit Island." Nangong Xiao said. She thought that if he was the one who had married Xian Mei Er back then, perhaps the current Southern Water Country would no longer exist.

"Oh." Nangong Lin's reaction was cold and indifferent. His expression was still the same as before.

In that case, that's right. Yan Xiaoxi is indeed related to the Immortal Spirit Island. However, what does this have to do with Imperial Father's purpose in calling me here today?

"Lin'er, Immortal Spirit Island isn't easy to offend." Everyone in the four nations knew this logic.

"Father, Xi Er is just a niece of the Celestial Island. What are you worried about?"

"Yan Xiaoxi, she …" Nangong Xiao did not finish her words. He had yet to investigate the matter thoroughly.

The reason why he came to find Nangong Lin now was to remind him that the next time he would tell the truth, he would not be so shocked, and would also understand his difficulties.

"Father, this son knows what to do." Nangong Lin had also guessed that this matter wasn't that simple. However, Yan Xiaoxi was only his wife to him.

No matter what her status was, there wouldn't be any hindrance to it, nor would it affect their relationship.

"Whatever, today we must be careful of Zhen`er." Nangong Xiao felt that she was old and that there were too many considerations for doing things. Fearful of the wolves at the front and fearful of the tigers at the back. It was the right decision for her to hand this matter over to Nangong Lin as soon as possible.

"Right." Nangong Lin nodded. He did not understand what Nangong Lin was thinking.

Was Nangong Zhen not a son to him?

Aren't you afraid that your royal brother will be sad to say such words to him?

Or, would he also warn Nangong Zhen to be careful of himself?

Indeed, the most heartless of all belonged to the imperial family.

"Liu Zhitian's token had disappeared without a trace. We searched for a long time, but we couldn't find it." After Liu Zhitian fell, his token was still a hidden danger, so Nangong Xiao had no choice but to worry.

Nangong Lin raised his eyebrows and swept his gaze over the worried Nangong Zhen. He would find out about this sooner or later. Thus, he said honestly, "The soldier token is with your son."

"What?" Nangong Xiao looked at Nangong Lin in shock.

"Liu Zhixue gave it to me." Nangong Lin explained.

Upon hearing Nangong Lin's words, Nangong Xiao instantly understood. No wonder Liu Zhitian had obediently submitted. He did not even have his final bargaining chip.

"Soldier Talisman." Nangong Lin took out his weapon talisman and held it in the air.

Nangong Xiao was taken aback. She accepted the token but didn't intend to confiscate it. She simply picked it up and probed it.

Just as he was about to return the treasure, his pupils dilated as he exclaimed, "The military seal is fake."

"Fake?" That was impossible. Liu Zhixue had personally given him the military emblem.

That day in the army camp, upon hearing his words, Liu Zhixue did not hesitate to believe him. During this period of time, he did not show it to anyone, not even Yan Xiaoxi.

How could it be fake?

Could it be?

Not good?

Instantly, a bad thought emerged in Nangong Lin's heart.

After looking through the Talisman inside and out, Nangong Lin discovered some clues. "The one beside the Talisman is not the Golden Thread."

"That's right, normal golden threads." Nangong Xiao agreed.

Just now, he was able to see through a few clues because most of his clothes were made of golden silk.

Nangong Lin had never liked extravagance and trouble. The fabrics he used were mostly comfortable, so he did not know much about these areas.

If he didn't study it carefully, he wouldn't be able to find anything.

Furthermore, he had never expected that Liu Zhixue would lie to him.

"The soldier token is with Liu Zhixue." This was an indisputable fact.

At the same time, Nangong Lin soon realized why Nangong Zhen would go back on his word and marry Liu Zhixue as his secondary wife. All of this was for the sake of the Weaponry Bestowment Talisman.

In these past few years, Nangong Zhen's influence had been constantly growing. He had been infected with a strange poison and his mind was no longer in the same generation as before.

In the current Southern Water Country, everything was as peaceful as it was on the eve of a storm. Once it erupted, there was no way to deal with it.

"Lin'er, you have to be careful." Nangong Xiao never expected that because of the situation back then, the State of South Water would experience a great change.

Nangong Zhen understood Nangong Xiao's temperament. Although he had big ambitions, he was still no match for Nangong Lin in terms of strategy, governance and ambition.

At present, he only had a few tens of thousands of Imperial Palace Imperial Guards on his hands.

The rest of the troops were in the hands of the two brothers. Even if Nangong Xiao wanted to stop them, she was helpless to do so.

"If there is nothing else, I will take my leave." Nangong Lin did not appreciate Nangong Xiao's kindness. To him, his father was merely his father. He did not have any feelings for Nangong Xiao and only had the courtesy of a sovereign.

As for Nangong Zhen, between the two of them, there would only be one ending. Either he would die, or he would die.

If it was the past, Nangong Lin would not be afraid. Now that he had Yan Xiaoxi, on the battlefield, once he had any distracting thoughts, he would lose for sure.

"You may leave." Nangong Xiao waved her hand. She knew that the current situation was something that he could no longer control.

The current Nanshui Country was facing internal troubles, so the desire to unify the four kingdoms was unlikely to come true.

After leaving the palace, Nangong Lin hurried back to the Prince Lin's residence, worn out by the journey.

"Prince, you're back." The butler came out to welcome Nangong Lin, who had returned to the residence.

"Where's the wangfei?" Nangong Lin was always worried about Yan Xiaoxi in his heart.

"In the study." Butler reported.
