Xuanzhou.

Just like last time, it was Moni who came to pick them up.

"Didn't you just go back a few days ago? Why are you here again?" Mo Ni was a little surprised when she received Hua Xi's message.

While Hua Xi was helping Hua Chao Chao off the plane, she replied to Mo Ni: "I came here to check something."

Moni was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

Hua Xi gave a brief and concise account of the situation.

Moni keenly grasped the key point, "The fragment with the word 'Xuan' engraved on it? Let me see it."

"It's here with me." The fragments were stored in the small backpack Hua Chaochao was carrying.

She gently unzipped it and reached in to explore.

Soon Hua Chaochao found the fragment, took it out and handed it to Mo Ni, saying, "Sister Mo Ni, here you go."

Mo Ni took the fragment, looked at it for a few seconds, then looked at Hua Xi, with a hint of doubt in her tone: "So you suspect it's Master Xuanzhou?"

As soon as Moni touched the fragments, she knew that they came from the mask. In the entire Xuanzhou, there was only one person wearing a golden mask with the word "Xuan" engraved on it.

Lord of Xuanzhou.

Hua Xi nodded slightly: "I suspect him. His mask appeared at the scene, which means he is related."

Mo Ni understood what Hua Xi meant: "Then I'll help you arrange a meeting with Master Xuanzhou?"

Hua Xi: “Yeah.”

Her main purpose of returning to Xuanzhou was to discuss this matter with Xuanzhou in person.

Mo Ni: "Okay, I'll contact Xuanzhou Lord right away."

While waiting, Hua Xi's cell phone suddenly rang.

Hua Chaochao came over curiously, "Who called you?"

Hua Xi took out the phone from her pocket, glanced at the caller ID, raised her eyebrows slightly, and answered, "Ji Xianchen."

"Brother Ji? Then answer it quickly!" Hua Chaochao clapped his hands excitedly, urging Hua Xi to answer the phone quickly.

Hua Xi answered the call: "Hello?"

Ji Xianchen's deep and magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone. He asked Hua Xi: "Are you in Xuanzhou?"

Hua Xi didn't ask how Ji Xianchen knew she was in Xuanzhou, she just answered simply, "Yeah."

Ji Xianchen continued to ask: "Is it a desperate situation and there are things that have not been dealt with?"

"No, it's a private matter."

Ji Xianchen seemed to pause for a moment, "Can you tell me what it is?"

Hua Xi raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Okay."

Since Ji Xianchen asked, it’s not wrong to tell him.

So Hua Xi repeated to Ji Xianchen what she had said to Mo Ni not long ago.

After listening quietly, Ji Xianchen remained silent for a long time.

Because she hadn't heard any sound for a long time, Hua Xi thought Ji Xianchen had hung up the phone. She took the phone away and saw that the call was still on.

Hua Xi put the phone back to her ear and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

Apart from this, she couldn't think of any other reason why he didn't speak.

Ji Xianchen finally spoke, his voice low and serious: "Are you... sure that your parents' affairs are related to the Lord of Xuanzhou?"

Hua Xi said frankly: "I'm not sure, so I went back to Xuanzhou to talk to him."

It is not ruled out that someone deliberately dropped the mask at the scene in an attempt to frame Lord Xuanzhou.

Ji Xianchen was quiet again. After a while, he said, "If it is finally confirmed that it was indeed the Xuanzhou Lord who killed your parents, what would you do?"

Hua Xi's eyes were firm and resolute. She said without hesitation: "I will make him pay the price."

Ji Xianchen: “…Okay, I understand.”

Hua Xi was keenly aware of the strangeness in Ji Xianchen's tone, and thinking of a possibility, she asked, "Are you friends with the Lord of Xuanzhou?"

If Ji Xianchen really had a friendship with Lord Xuanzhou... then she would not be merciful.

In response to Hua Xi's question, Ji Xianchen answered decisively: "No, I don't know him."

Ji Xianchen has always disdained lying, so Hua Xi believed that he really didn't know Lord Xuanzhou.

"Okay, do you have any questions?"

Ji Xianchen: “No more.”

At this time, Hua Xi saw Mo Ni approaching with a suspicious look on her face, and she said to the phone, "Then I'll hang up."

Ji Xianchen replied, “Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Hua Xi put away her phone. Looking at Mo Ni's expression, she guessed the result: "Master Xuanzhou refuses to meet?"

Mo Ni frowned, seeming very confused, "Yes, he said that Master Xuanzhou is very busy and has no time to meet."

"I just don't understand. He is just a tool. What can he be busy with?"

As soon as the voice fell, a thought suddenly emerged in Moni's mind, "Could it be that he holds a grudge? I remember that two years ago, Lord Xuanzhou came to us for cooperation in Juejing, but you rejected him, so this time he also refused your request for a meeting."

As she spoke, Mo Ni couldn't help but reveal her disgust, curling her lips and saying, "If that's true, then Lord Xuanzhou is too narrow-minded. I despise narrow-minded men the most."
