The Emperor is kidnapped, and the useless daughter destroys the three realms

Chapter 285 Make a Deal

This person's appearance was very abrupt, but there was no one else here, so no one noticed him for a while.

His face was hidden under the wide cloak, making it difficult to see clearly, but he was walking in one direction with a very clear goal.

As he walked, some colorless powder in his hand scattered from his fingertips.

When he was about to walk out of the path, he raised his hand and stuck a talisman on his body, and then his body instantly disappeared on the road, as if he had never appeared.

...

At this time, in a village at the foot of the mountain.

In a relatively remote room, Ou Ye was pacing back and forth in the room, showing her extreme anxiety.

Xia Zhirou's disappearance became the biggest thorn in her heart.

She now worries every day that Xia Zhirou will be discovered by Ruan Xihe and then betray her.

Over the past few days, she had lost her appetite and looked much more haggard.

Ou Ye secretly contacted many people and asked them to investigate Xia Zhirou's news and whereabouts, but no one could find out!

"Boom, boom, boom..."

There were three regular knocks on the door.

Ou Ye's expression tensed and he looked towards the door sharply.

The address of this house was specially rented for the mission. Because they had to sneak into the surrounding environment and secretly gather information, each member of the mission was assigned to a different place.

But they had agreed long ago that mission members would not visit each other.

So who was knocking on her door today?

The knocking on the door only happened three times and then stopped. Ou Ye breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had knocked on the wrong door.

But the next second, the familiar and regular knock on the door sounded again.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Ou Ye immediately became nervous, and his whole body was like an arrow on a bow, extremely tense.

She held her breath and walked carefully towards the door.

After reaching the door, Ou Ye reached out and touched the door, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to see who was knocking on the door outside.

After preparing himself mentally, Ou Ye pushed forward at an extremely fast speed.

But unexpectedly, there was no one outside the door!

Nothing.

Ou Ye's expression became even more nervous. Thinking of words like mummies, human skins, evil cultivators, etc., she could hardly walk.

She took slow steps and tried to peek outside to see who was knocking on her door.

At this moment, a voice that was difficult to tell whether it was male or female, extremely hoarse and unpleasant, suddenly came from behind Ou Ye in the house.

"Are you Ou Ye?"

"what--"

The sudden sound scared Ou Ye so much that he screamed and fell to the ground, shrinking down.

She turned around blankly, only to see that in the room where she was alone just now, there was another figure who appeared out of nowhere.

The figure was wearing a red cloak and was sitting at the table, staring at her motionlessly.

Although the cloak covered his face, Ou Ye could still feel the scrutinizing gaze beneath the cloak.

"Why do you know my identity? Who are you?"

Ou Ye swallowed.

The man under the red cloak sneered when he heard this.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can help you."

"Help me?" Ou Ye's tone was somewhat questioning and disdainful. "Since you know my name, you must know my identity. I am not short of money, nor am I short of anything else, so I don't need your help."

"You answered too early."

The man under the red cloak laughed out loud.

Because his tone was so confident, Ou Ye couldn't help but feel even more flustered.

After saying that, the man took out something from his cloak and threw it in front of Ou Ye.

Ou Ye was puzzled.

But the curiosity in her heart made her unable to help but pick up the stone-like object in front of her.

It's a photo stone.

Ou Ye's fingertips touched the photo stone, and a trace of spiritual power was injected into it. The photo stone instantly began to glow, and some images began to be displayed in front of him.

The picture shows the scene in Qingcheng where Ou Ye and Xia Zhirou conspired to get rid of Ruan Xihe.

The screen flashed, and the picture in the photo stone changed to a scene where Ruan Xihe was in front, and Xia Zhirou and several killers followed behind.

All these things clearly recorded the process of Ou Ye and Xia Zhirou's murder of Ruan Xihe.

"How do you have this? Who are you?!"

Ou Ye's pupils shrank slightly, and even his fingertips were trembling. The image stone almost slipped from his hands and fell to the ground.

"I've already said it, it doesn't matter who I am, Miss Ou, do you want to get up and sit down and talk?"

When Ou Ye heard this, he realized that he had been sitting on the ground and had not stood up.

Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, but she didn't know why the person under the red cloak came to see her, so she could only get up from the ground and sit on the other side of the table.

Ou Ye placed the photo stone on the table and pushed it back. She placed her hands on the armrests of the chair and gradually clenched them into fists.

"What on earth do you want to do by coming to see me?"

"I said I'm here to help you, so of course I'm here to help you."

The man under the red cloak said this and reached out to take the photo stone back into his palm.

Then he exerted force, and the photo stone shattered into powder in his hand, which floated into the air.

After spreading the photo stone powder, he clapped his hands.

"How is it? Miss Ou, are you satisfied?"

Ou Ye did not have much confidence in her heart, as she knew that the person in front of her definitely did not come just to crush the photo stone.

So, Ou Ye remained silent.

The man continued, "I heard that Miss Ou wanted to find the young lady from the Xia family, but she couldn't find her..."

"Do you know where she is?"

The man did not answer, but chuckled and threw another photo stone to Ou Ye.

The photo stone records the scene where Xia Zhirou led a dozen assassins to surround Ruan Xihe and others, but was finally killed by Ruan Xihe with a single knife.

"How could it be..." Ou Ye looked at the photo stone in disbelief.

In her inherent thinking, Xia Zhirou is the daughter of the Xia family of Lingyue Kingdom. Even if Ruan Xihe had a hundred courage, she would still be afraid of the revenge of the big family and would not dare to touch Xia Zhirou.

But unexpectedly, Ruan Xihe actually killed Xia Zhirou in front of all the elders of the Xia family!

In this case, if Ruan Xihe knew that she was involved in this matter, wouldn't she also be included in Ruan Xihe's hunting list!

So now, it’s a life-and-death battle between the two of them!

"When you say help me, you don't just mean showing me these two photo stones, right?" Ou Ye reacted quickly.

The man chuckled, "As expected of Miss Ou, you are so smart."

"I want to make a deal with Miss Ou. If Miss Ou agrees, then we will naturally help you get rid of the person you don't want to see."

"And you just need to wait for the results."

Ou Ye's breath quickened. "What deal?"
