Hidden Blade

Chapter 275 My World, The World Of Monarchs

Although the night was already dark, as the best restaurant in Chang'an, the Osmanthus House was still crowded.

The man led Xu Han into a private room of Osmanthus House under the lead of a servant.

This private room was located on the third floor of the Osmanthus Flower House. With a single glance, one could see all the singing, dancing, and chatting in the restaurant.

The servants brought in delicious dishes and brought in a pot of wine that looked extremely expensive before they left one after another. Thus, only Xu Han and the man sat opposite each other in the large private room.

The man was dressed in a blue sweater, and his appearance was still handsome and resolute. However, there was less contempt between his eyebrows and more sadness.

Ever since Xu Han entered the room, he had been staring at the man, seemingly wanting to see something from his face. However, the man had always greeted Xu Han calmly, asking him what kind of food he liked and what kind of wine he liked to drink. He had never seen the undisguised hostility in Xu Han's eyes.

At this moment, the man picked up the wine jug and poured a cup with Xu Han and himself. Then, he raised his glass and whispered, "Azure Jade White Fox, this wine needs to go deep into the hundred thousand mountains on the border of the Azure Province and take the risk of being devoured by the demons to gather the petals of the Azure Jade Fox Flower before it can be brewed. Because its color is as pure as milk, it is famous, but this is a rare wine."

The man introduced Xu Han eagerly, but Xu Han did not intend to move his cup.

He was still sitting there looking at the man without saying a word.

When the man saw this, he smiled embarrassedly and drank all the wine in his cup in one gulp.

The man pointed to the dish in front of him and excitedly introduced, "I heard that Manor Chief Xu is from Qingzhou. I think he has tasted such a good wine before. It's normal for him not to be interested in it. However, this red pink mandarin duck is a specialty of Liangzhou .."

Xu Han finally opened his mouth when he heard this, but he did not say anything immediately. He hesitated slightly as if he was measuring how to address the man in front of him. He thought for a moment before saying, "Sir, there is no need to probe. Although I was born in Qingzhou, I was nurtured by a beggar. I do not know who I am."

The man was stunned. He couldn't help but look at Xu Han, only to see that the youth's expression was calm and did not change.

At that time, the man finally put away the enthusiasm on his face. He also put his hands on his knees and sat upright like Xu Han. Then, he said in a deep voice, "What do you think of the Great Zhou Empire?"

Xu Han said with a deep gaze, "Shouldn't Your Excellency know more about the Great Zhou Empire than anyone else? Why do you ask me?"

The man smiled bitterly. Then he said, "This Great Zhou is indeed my world, but very quickly.."

"It will be your world.."

As soon as these words were spoken, the candlelight in the room suddenly flickered. Xu Han's eyes narrowed and his aura became somewhat chaotic.

"Looks like you already know." When the man saw Xu Han's situation, he immediately understood something. "The child that I let go back then, looks like it really is you.."

Xu Han didn't say anything. He stared at the man in front of him, but in his heart, he couldn't say anything.

He did have doubts about his background because of many things that happened after he came to Chang'an, but these doubts never really caused Xu Han to waver too much. But at this moment, the man's words made Xu Han realize for the first time how terrifying his identity was.

After a long silence, he finally said again, "So? Are you going to kill me?"

Xu Han did not doubt that the other party could do such a thing with the man's means of maintaining his status. So, what was the purpose of bringing him here today was something that was very debatable.

Thinking of this, Xu Han's eyes once again flashed with vigilance.

When the man saw this, he smiled again. He picked up the wine jug at the side and poured another cup for himself. Then, he drank it all in one gulp.

"These years.."

"I have indeed done many things wrong. I am not the Son of Heaven's Will. Father should not have died in his prime. I went against the heavens and thought that I would be able to seize the Dragon Qi of the world and sit firmly in the throne of the Emperor. But who would have thought that I would sink deeper and deeper into the depths of the Great Zhou Empire and lose all my inheritance?"

'"Supporting the Longevity Division, annihilating the Shepherd King Clan and destroying the Tian Ce Mansion is to eradicate all those who know about this. This heaven-defying matter is actually trying to comply with the Heavenly Fate. Now, it seems to be extremely ridiculous."

The man said worriedly. His expression was lonely, but Xu Han could not tell if his actions were true or false. Therefore, he continued to listen to the man's words quietly.

"I have been looking for flood dragon generation, to swallow its dragon qi, and strong my dragon qi. When Big Yellow City is destroyed, the Dragon Qi that I have accumulated over the years will dissipate by 30% .. Originally, I thought that this was the result of the collapse of the national destiny, but these past few days, although Jizhou has stabilized, the dissipation of the Dragon Qi has become even more intense. "Only then did I know that the Dragon Qi has found a benefactor to live in. I have already lost the hearts of the people. Even if I have tens of thousands of Dragon Qi, it is nothing more than a wedding dress for others."

The man's words caused Xu Han's expression to change again. He couldn't help but think of the sudden surge of dragon qi in his body a few days ago. Could it be that this man was the one who scattered out and found him as his master, causing it to gush into his body?

"You must have sensed this as well, right?" The man drank another cup of green jade white fox and said.

Although Xu Han remained silent, he still nodded slightly.

"Zhu Xian has already found Sikong Bai to enter the capital. Everyone knows what he is thinking. I fear that my life will not be long."

"But before I die, I would like to ask you to do something for me. It can also be considered as fulfilling my wish."

The man's tone was very sincere, with a hint of kindness in his words.

However, Xu Han didn't even hear what the man was talking about, so he shook his head decisively.

"Not to mention whether I am a descendant of the royal family or not, if so, then in other words, my parents died at your hands. Although we are blood-closest relatives, you are also my enemy who killed my father and mother. Why do you think I want to help you?"

The man was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he suddenly laughed. He pointed at Xu Han and said, "Your temperament is quite father-like. As expected of my Yuwen Clan's seed."

After saying those words, the man did not wait for Xu Han to give him any response. At that time, his expression became serious as he looked at Xu Han Yan with deep meaning and said, "You might as well listen to what I am asking for, and then give an answer. I would like to wait until you have heard about this matter, and I definitely will not have the intention to refuse."

".." The man's certainty stunned Xu Han again. He frowned and subconsciously asked, "Why?"

"Nothing else." The man smiled, then narrowed his eyes and said, "Because you are his disciple."
