In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me!

Chapter 369: Icy Stranger

"So it is you," he said.

He seemed to finally relax and sat down slightly.

"It is me," the person replied.

When that figure appeared before him, Yue Mingxuan almost felt as though he had returned to a dream.

Shang Qinghua’s face seemed to emerge from that dream, appearing right in front of him.

He had grown much thinner than when they last parted, and his appearance had become even more dangerously alluring.

"Why are you here?" Yue Mingxuan asked.

"The affairs of state can be handled by those below me," Shang Qinghua said with a smile. "I missed you."

Yue Mingxuan’s face turned slightly red.

It had indeed been a long time since he last saw Shang Qinghua and he also missed him very much.

However, he knew that during this period, they could not meet.

The more they met, the deeper the feelings would grow, and the harder it would be to break free.

At the very least, right now, he did not yet have the courage to oppose The Black Archon.

After the betrayal of The Black Archon by the Nine Abyssal Gate, that organization still managed to continue existing.

Moreover, its current power was still so overwhelming.

If the Nine Abyssal Gate had never betrayed them, and the Imperator had not gone missing, what kind of state would The Black Archon be in now?

Yue Mingxuan did not dare to imagine it.

"Aren’t you afraid your master will find out?" he asked.

"He will know if he knows, and he will not know if he does not. I have lived for The Black Archon for twenty years. It is time I found my own life," Shang Qinghua said with a somewhat sorrowful smile.

Yue Mingxuan sighed and did not know how to comfort him.

He did like Shang Qinghua, but he was afraid Shang Qinghua would be harmed because of this.

He was not strong enough yet.

He could not even deal with an emperor of Beirong, let alone The Black Archon.

"We both need to endure for now. But I think it will not take too long before I succeed in resisting them," Shang Qinghua said, his eyes carrying a hint of excitement.

"No," Yue Mingxuan shook his head.

He did not want Shang Qinghua to be placed in such danger.

"You do not need to worry about me. I know what I am doing."

"No," Yue Mingxuan repeated firmly.

Shang Qinghua seemed about to say more, but seeing Yue Mingxuan’s resolute attitude, he could only let it go.

He could not force Yue Mingxuan to change his mind, just as Yue Mingxuan could not change his.

"I will make you agree," Shang Qinghua said with a smile. "There will not be too many troubles on The Black Archon’s side. After all, I am still their leader."

Yue Mingxuan did not answer.

He closed his eyes, yet his thoughts were in turmoil.

He did not know what Shang Qinghua’s special methods were, but he knew that although he had outwardly given up, deep in his heart, he had not truly let go.

In fact, his thoughts were the same as Shang Qinghua’s, but he did not show it on the surface.

He did not want Shang Qinghua to be put in danger, and he did not want him to be hurt.

He only hoped that Shang Qinghua could remain safe for the time being.

Speaking of which, he was not without his own power.

In terms of influence alone, he actually had quite a few forces.

The Flying Opera Group, Ten Thousand Wisdom Hall, and the Silver Needle Sect, he already controlled three factions directly.

Moreover, if the Silver Needle Sect supported him, then the Sword Forge Villa would most likely also support him.

At present, Hua Fengyun’s stance was also quite clear.

Between him and Hua Fengyun, there was already a certain tacit understanding.

At the very least, Hua Fengyun would not say anything unfavorable about him.

After all, this place controlled the world’s discourse, and it was also a prestigious family dedicated to teaching and nurturing others.

This place could not manipulate public sentiment, but it could give public sentiment a direction.

After staying in the Dongyue Hua family for a period of time, Yue Mingxuan felt that it was time for him to leave.

The moment he stepped out of the door, he encountered a man radiating coldness all over his body.

That man’s gaze was extremely icy, like frost that had frozen for a thousand years.

Yue Mingxuan could not help but think of the ice coffin made of thousand year profound ice stored inside his storage jade bracelet.

The chill from that coffin was not inferior at all to the coldness of the man in front of him.

"Who are you?" Yue Mingxuan asked.

"You are the new master of the Ten Thousand Wisdom Hall?" The man’s gaze was cold as he looked Yue Mingxuan up and down, as if he was examining an object.

Yue Mingxuan felt very uncomfortable and frowned. "Who are you?"

"I am Li Xunhuan," he said.

His voice also seemed to come from layers of ice, carrying a heavy and oppressive tone.

"Li Xunhuan?" Yue Mingxuan repeated.

He vaguely remembered that this seemed to be the title of the number one expert in the martial world.

He was not someone who paid much attention to such information, so he did not truly understand what the name Li Xunhuan represented.

"I did not expect that you would not be afraid when you see me."

How could he not be afraid, he was clearly terrified to death.

Yue Mingxuan thought inwardly.

However, he only gave a cold smile and said, "What exactly do you want from me?"

"I simply wanted to see what the rumored destined master of the Ten Thousand Wisdom Hall looks like."

"Now that you have seen me, you can leave," Yue Mingxuan said.

He did not particularly like staying near someone like an ice block.
