Chapter 339 The Biggest Secret
Chapter 339 The Biggest Secret
White House.
It was late at night and Bai Zhaozhao was just about to go to bed when he suddenly felt a familiar breath, followed by several sounds of breaking through the air. It was the sound of Zhu Hanyan's wind blade!
Bai Zhaozhao hurriedly looked out the window and saw Zhao Lingxiao swinging several sword energies at Li Rongyue, who dodged them easily.
Seeing Bai Zhaozhao's figure, Li Rongyue shouted: "A Zhao, I really have something to do!"
Bai Zhaozhao said unhappily: "Then let's talk outside!"
"This is so bad, there are too many people and too many eyes!" Li Rongyue said with a smile.
Bai Zhaozhao rolled his eyes: "It's even worse for a man and a woman to be alone in the middle of the night!"
Li Rongyue raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"Well, I just went to ask Lord Bai a question."
"what is the problem?"
"I asked him if Tang Lei left anything for you back then? Like a jade pendant or jade plaque or something?"
"Oh, what then?"
Bai Zhaozhao appeared calm on the surface but was horrified on the inside. Why did Li Rongyue ask this?
Unexpectedly, Li Rongyue was stunned for a moment after hearing this calm answer, and then said meaningfully: "A Zhao, your breath is two points faster!"
Bai Zhaozhao's face froze: "Come in!"
Li Rongyue smiled triumphantly at Zhao Lingxiao and the other man, then immediately went into the house.
"A Zhao, it's normal for you to be nervous, but why are you pretending to be calm?"
Bai Zhaozhao did not answer and continued to ask: "What did my father answer?"
Li Rongyue raised an eyebrow: "Do you really have a jade token?"
"So my dad's answer is no?"
"Then it seems that you really got the jade token!"
"Why are you asking my father this question?"
"Can you show me your jade token?"
"How did my father answer?"
"Is it exactly the same as my jade token?"
"Li Rongyue!!" Bai Zhaozhao reached out and took out two golden needles and threatened, "I remember we agreed to have a fight before, right?"
Li Rongyue's body froze, and she looked at the golden needle in Bai Zhaozhao's hand that was glowing with cold light and said, "You can't beat me, and I don't want to hurt you, so why don't we just give up the fight?"
"Humph." Bai Zhaozhao snorted coldly: "I like group fights. How about six people against one of you?"
"Then let's not talk about it!" Li Rongyue said tactfully, "Your father said there was no jade token or anything like that, just an ordinary small box. He and his wife never opened it, but gave it to your grandfather for safekeeping."
Bai Zhaozhao nodded. No wonder when she had tested Madam Bai before, Madam Bai didn’t recognize the jade token at all. It turned out that she had never seen it before.
"Is there anything wrong with the jade token?"
Li Rongyue looked strange: "Problem? Don't you know? This is a jade token handed down from generation to generation. You once borrowed that piece from me for Marquis Guangping."
Bai Zhaozhao nodded again: "I mean, why did you suddenly ask my father about the jade token?"
Li Rongyue paused, his eyes became deep: "Have you discovered the specialness of the jade token?"
Bai Zhaozhao asked in confusion: "What's so special about it?"
Li Rongyue suddenly moved closer and whispered, "There is a huge amount of profound energy in there!"
Bai Zhaozhao was surprised and said, "A large amount of profound energy?!"
Li Rongyue seemed to have thought of something: "That's right, you haven't reached the level of Grandmaster yet, it's normal that you can't find it!"
Bai Zhaozhao: ...
"So this is why your martial arts suddenly became heavenly level?"
Li Rongyue nodded: "Of course, there are other opportunities. Ah Zhao, I have told you the biggest secret! You must protect the jade token well and don't tell anyone. I don't think the emperor and Prince An know that it is in your hands."
Bai Zhaozhao said calmly: "Then... do they know this secret?"
"Of course I don't know, otherwise the palace will soon have a few more heavenly-level people, so it's better to keep it secret. I discovered this by accident!"
"Then... why do you know that I might have a jade token that has been passed down from generation to generation?"
Li Rongyue smiled and said, "I guessed. In fact, your jade token was given to Tang Lei by the first prince, but Tang Lei's accident was very sudden. As long as you insist that you don't have the jade token, the emperor and Prince An will believe it. After all, the Ye family girl probably doesn't want you to have anything that can prove your identity."
Bai Zhaozhao: “…That makes sense.”
Wait a minute, there is a lot of mysterious energy in Li Rongyue’s jade token, and her own jade token is space, so what are the remaining pieces?
By the way, the jade token of Marquis Guangping’s Mansion was swallowed by the system, but Cheng Jiayu had not become very powerful at that time, so it should not be as powerful as his own jade token, which probably also contained a large amount of mysterious energy.
Seeing that Bai Zhaozhao seemed to be lost in thought, Li Rongyue couldn't bear to disturb her, so she sat down and watched.
After a moment, Bai Zhaozhao looked at him in surprise: "Why are you still here?"
Li Rongyue: ...
"A Zhao, I've told you the secret, don't you want to show some appreciation?"
Bai Zhaozhao said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!"
Li Rongyue: ...
After a moment of silence, Li Rongyue slowly said, "A Zhao, I asked you a question before, but you said I couldn't do it. I didn't ask you any further questions at the time, so you agreed.
But then I thought about it again and again. At that time, you and I both had important things to accomplish. There were too many uncertainties for us to trust each other, right? "
Bai Zhaozhao fell into reminiscence, then raised his eyes to look at him: "Yes!"
"It's different now. I have... eliminated all the previous hidden dangers. There is only one regret that needs to be made up for!" Li Rongyue looked at Bai Zhaozhao steadily.
Bai Zhaozhao understood what he meant. He wanted to say that after his rebirth, he, like her, had many hidden dangers from his previous life that needed to be resolved, so he himself was not sure whether he could become what she wanted.
It’s different now. He has completed the task of protecting the Northwest Army, and she is the only regret from his previous life left!
"So what?" Bai Zhaozhao asked calmly.
"So..." Li Rongyue took a deep breath, "Now can you tell me what love brain is?"
Bai Zhaozhao: ...
"It's... trusting and protecting a person to the utmost, satisfying any of her requests, without violating principles or harming others. No need to use your brain!"
Bai Zhaozhao finally felt that this explanation was more in line with her preferences, and let alone the modern explanation that had no principles or bottom line!
Li Rongyue was surprised: "Is it that simple?"
Bai Zhaozhao: "...This is not easy!"
Li Rongyue thought about it again and said doubtfully: "I still think it's very simple!"
Bai Zhaozhao turned his head: "... whatever you want!"
"Ah Zhao!" Li Rongyue suddenly stood up, put his hands on her shoulders, and said with a burning gaze: "I know you still have some things to do. If you need me, tell me. If not, I will wait for you!"
Bai Zhaozhao was slightly surprised: "It may take a long time, or maybe... you can't wait?"
Li Rongyue curled her lips and smiled, beautiful beyond words: "As long as it's you in the end, it doesn't matter how long I wait!
As for not being able to wait...ha, I did something wrong last time, this time, I will never give anyone a chance!
Besides, I am the best martial artist in the world! I will destroy anyone who competes with me! I will also destroy anyone who opposes me!"
This sudden success made Bai Zhaozhao a little flustered. She broke away from Li Rongyue, turned her back and said, "A good horse never turns back!"
"..." Li Rongyue turned around and came to her again, smiling, "Ah Zhao, at least you have eaten Huitou grass before. It tastes much better than ordinary grass, right?"
Bai Zhaozhao's black line: ...
"It's time for you to go!"
"Okay!" Li Rongyue was in a good mood. As she turned to leave, she turned back and said, "A Zhao, believe me, grass near the nest is not tasty. Don't try it!"
Bai Zhaozhao: ...
