Chapter 508 Wait Until When

"Didn't you say … these guys … are all … bad people …? Why … Lord Manor Master … still … use them?" At night, on the roof of a three-story restaurant in Heng Imperial City, Su Mu'an was eating sugar gourds while making intermittent noises.

When Fang Ziyu heard this, he helplessly looked at the boy who was enjoying his meal and said angrily, "If you ask me, how would I know?"

That night, Xu Han sent out those swordsmen to patrol the Royal City.

Naturally, he could not hide such a thing from everyone in the manor. Su Muan heard that she wanted to capture the monster, The little fellow refused to let go of such a matter of "righteousness". He shouted and was about to follow. Xu Han, however, did not allow it. He was afraid that the child would be injured in an unknown accident. However, the little fellow was wholeheartedly thinking of following his ancestor and becoming a saber man who could save the country and the people. Xu Han could not stop him, so he could only let Fang Ziyu follow him in case of unforeseen circumstances.

Before that, he had also instructed Fang Ziyu to lead Su Muan to watch from afar. Without his orders, he could not act recklessly. After all, the matter of capturing monsters was not as simple as it was in a day or two. Based on his speculations about the so-called monster, it would probably take some time to force it out. He wanted to use his child's temperament. If this enthusiasm faded, he would probably not be involved in this matter again.

However, he had underestimated Su Muan's toughness.

Four full days passed, The swordsmen were divided into two shifts by Xu Han. They kept patrolling back and forth every day, but they never found anything. However, Su Muan's enthusiasm was not weakened by this. On the contrary, Young Miss Fang was extremely tired. She had long lost her patience and was dragged by Su Muan to the tall building to monitor the area assigned to them by Xu Han every day.

Of course, in Xu Han's calculations, this so-called region was determined to prevent that life-threatening thing from appearing.

"Then if we send so many people out to patrol, can that bad guy appear?" Of course, Su Muan did not expect this. He looked at Fang Ziyu and continued to ask.

"If you were a bad person, would you appear?" Eldest Miss Fang, who had been dragged here by Su Muan these past few days, was naturally filled with resentment towards Su Muan. At this moment, she was extremely impolite.

However, Su Muan could not hear the resentment in Miss Fang's words. He tilted his head consciously and frowned for a moment before saying, "I don't think so."

"Isn't that right?" Fang Ziyu said, his expression somewhat absent-minded.

"Then why did Lord Manor Master do this?" Su Muan continued to ask endlessly.

Most likely, Fang Ziyu had heard too many of these questions. Without thinking, he replied, "I'm lying to you."

Su Muan was stunned when he said this. He didn't even need to continue eating the sugar gourd in his hand. Instead, he stared at Fang Ziyu with his eyes wide open, as if he had heard something unbelievable.

Fang Ziyu finally regained her senses. She realized that she seemed to have said something wrong. Su Muan's mind was pure and she admired Xu Han from the bottom of her heart. If he really knew that Xu Han had lied to him, it would probably be enough to make this little fellow sad for a long time.

Fang Ziyu looked at Su Muan who had his eyes wide open. He was a little flustered. At that time, he was about to open his mouth to say something to remedy the situation, but before he could say anything, Su Muan's voice sounded again.

"I know!" The little fellow said with a look of sudden enlightenment.

"What do you know?" Fang Ziyu asked guiltily. If Su Muan was sad about this, she would not just comfort him.

"So Big Sister Fang is as stupid as me. Lord Manor Master is so smart. He must have his own thoughts on doing this. Big Sister Fang doesn't know either. That's why he lied to me like this." As he spoke, Su Muan's face revealed a touch of delight, as if he was secretly delighted with his perception.

Hearing this, Fang Ziyu's expression became strange. She had misjudged the little fellow's almost blind admiration for Xu Han. Perhaps he had never thought that Xu Han would deceive him, even if it was to ensure his safety.

Thinking about Fang Ziyu here, she was both angry and funny. However, with the previous lesson, she naturally wouldn't engage in this argument with Su Muan. She repeatedly nodded her head, "En, I didn't expect Little An An An to be so smart. She really can't hide it from you."

Hearing this, Su Muan's face instantly revealed such a smile. Fang Ziyu looked at it in his eyes, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Xu Han, this guy … is really an all-male eater …"

…

Sitting in a restaurant not far away, Ye Hongjian, who had seen all of this, turned her head to look at Xu Han, who was sitting behind her.

"I didn't expect Ziyu to be so convinced by this little Mu'an." She pursed her lips into a smile and walked to Xu Han's side. From a distance, she naturally could not hear Fang Ziyu's conversation with Su Mu'an. However, every time she thought of how Fang Ziyu had been pulled over by Su Mu'an to guard the vigil with reluctance, even with Ye Hongjian's temperament, she secretly felt that it was a little funny.

At this moment, Xu Han was flipping through a map of Horizontal Imperial City that covered the entire table. He held a brush and drew some markings on the map. Hearing Ye Hongjian's words, he replied without lifting his head, "Everything comes down, just like Big Brother Chu was afraid of Brother Song back then."

At this point, Xu Han suddenly stopped writing. He looked up at Ye Hongjian and asked, "I heard that Brother Song's child was born. What's his name?"

"Xu Lai." Ye Hongjian sat beside Xu Han and stared at the youth with a smile.

"Xu Lai? Song Xulai? The breeze is gentle. What a good name." Xu Han did not notice him. He muttered to himself like this, then lowered his head again and began to draw something on the map.

Ye Hongjian looked at the map that Xu Han had sketched into a mess. She curled her lips. Ever since she decided to find the'monster 'that was killing people everywhere, Xu Han had been drawing this map on it every day. Even Red Notes could not understand what Xu Han was planning, but she knew that Xu Han would never do such a useless thing with his temperament. Therefore, she knew very well that she did not ask more about the reason.

But at this moment she seemed to be getting impatient and suddenly asked, "How long are we going to wait?"

At this moment, Xu Han used his pen to draw another spot on the map. As a result, there was only one spot left on the map that had not yet been drawn by Xu Han, and that spot was the gathering place of the Dark Asura Palace-Ku Tou Xiang!

"Almost there. I guess we'll have a result in these two days. It's been hard these past few days." Xu Han looked up at Ye Hongjian and said guiltily.

But who would have thought that Ye Hongjian, who had heard this, would turn to look at Xu Han. She blinked her eyes in confusion.

"What I'm asking is…"

Suddenly, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She leaned closer to Xu Han's ear and said with an orchid-like breath.

"When can we have our Little Xu Han…"
