“Are you Eighth?”

Jian Wushuang looked at the woman in front of him carefully.

He had to admit that this woman was very beautiful. In terms of looks, she was no less cold than his aura.

However, this woman was born a slave. Although she had become a principle Ruler, she had obviously relied on treasures to build up her temperament. Her temperament was very ordinary, and she even gave people a very humble feeling, naturally, she lost some of her charm.

“You know my name?” The beautiful woman who had been busy could not help looking up at Jian Wushuang in surprise.

!!
In fact, she did not have a name.

Ah Ba was named after her when she was a slave. Later, she simply called him Ah Ba.

However, not many people knew her name in this world.

“My name is Jian Wushuang. Xuan Yi is my Ruler,” Jian Wushuang said directly.

“Big Brother Xuan Yi? Are you his disciple?” Eighth’s voice was obviously more anxious than before.

“Big Brother Xuan Yi?” Jian Wushuang raised his eyebrows and then smiled. “I am his disciple. If it’s convenient for you, can you talk to me?”

“This…” Eighth looked troubled.

“Are you worried about the Thunder God Palace?” Jian Wushuang glanced at Eighth.

Eighth was silent.

“Don’t worry, the Thunder God Palace won’t disturb us.” Jian Wushuang smiled.

At this time, a figure suddenly appeared beside Jian Wushuang.

“Bai Yang, the outer deacon of the Thunder God Palace, greets Ruler Xue Jian.” The person bowed respectfully to Jian Wushuang.

“Do you know me?” Jian Wushuang glanced at Bai Yang.

“My lord, I have been ordered to protect Eighth lady secretly. Not long ago, my Palace Master personally sent me a message saying that Ruler Blood Sword would come here and ask me to receive you. I will try my best to meet all your requirements,” Bai Yang said.

“I see.” Jian Wushuang nodded.

“Eighth lady, Ruler Blood Sword is indeed a disciple of Xuan Yi. Previously, he came to my Thunder God Palace because of Xuan Yi’s matter and had some unhappiness with my Thunder God Palace. Of course, now that the conflict has been resolved, now that Ruler Blood Sword wants to talk to you, My Thunder God Palace will naturally avoid him.” Bai Yang was very modest.

Hearing Bai Yang’s words, Eighth was very surprised.

Although Bai Yang had been secretly protecting her, Eighth knew that Bai Yang had always been very cold and aloof. He had only protected her under orders and had never really looked up to her.

But now, this cold and aloof Bai Yang was actually so humble and polite to her?

Eighth instantly understood that it was not her who had changed Bai Yang’s attitude, but the Ruler Blood Sword who had suddenly appeared, who was also her brother Xuan Yi’s disciple.

“I’ll go with you,” Eighth said directly.

“Okay, let’s find a place to talk.” Jian Wushuang smiled and then glanced at Bai Yang. “You stay here.”

“Yes.” Bai Yang did not dare to disobey.

Soon, Jian Wushuang left with Eighth.

After he left, the people in the tavern were in an uproar.

“Who was that man?”

“I don’t know who he was, but that Bai Yang called himself an outer deacon of the Thunder God Palace. That’s the palace. Even an outer deacon is usually a fourth-level Ruler, right?”

“He is indeed a fourth-level Ruler. And if I’m not mistaken, he must be the one who has been secretly protecting this Eighth lady. Like He Yun from before, he doesn’t even care about Bai Yang. He probably doesn’t even care about the Wan Yan Ruler behind He Yun, but when he faces that person just now, he’s as respectful as a grandson.”

“Tut, tut, to be able to make the deacons of the Thunder God Palace so respectful, he must be a real big shot.”

The customers in the tavern were all praising him, but it had nothing to do with them. They just enjoyed talking about it.

…

In an empty space not far from the tavern, Jian Wushuang waved his hand and completely blocked the surrounding time and space.

“Miss Eighth, I’m here to ask you about my Ruler.” Jian Wushuang went straight to the point.

“Ruler Blood Sword, since you’re brother Xuan Yi’s disciple, you should know more about brother Xuan Yi than I do, right?” Eighth was puzzled.

“To tell you the truth, I’m his disciple, but when I took him as my Ruler, I was not in this Star Field at all. I was in another Star Field far away, and I separated from him a long time ago.” Jian Wushuang said with a bitter smile.

“Is that so?” Eighth took a deep look at Jian Wushuang, wondering if he was suspecting something.

“Miss Eighth, May I know what is the relationship between you and my Ruler?” Jian Wushuang asked.

“Me? I am just a maid by Big Brother Xuan Yi’s side,” Eighth said.

“Maid?” Jian Wushuang could not help being surprised.

He knew that Xuan Yi had killed Lei Yi, the number one genius of the Thunder God Palace, for Eighth, and had completely offended the palace.

Later, he even went to the Thunder God Palace to beg for death for Eighth.

Was a mere maid worth his Ruler doing this?

“I am indeed just a maid by Brother Xuan Yi’s side. I didn’t even know him 100,000 years ago. But once, when I was in danger, Brother Xuan Yi happened to pass by and saved me. At that time, it was the people of the Thunder God Palace who wanted to harm me. They wanted to capture me and offer me to the number one genius of the Thunder God Palace.”

“Not long after Brother Xuan Yi saved me, the number one genius of the Thunder God Palace came to find me. I thought brother Xuan Yi would hand me over, but I didn’t expect brother Xuan Yi to kill the number one genius of the Thunder God Palace,” Eighth said.

Hearing this, Jian Wushuang was even more confused.

They had only met by chance. It was one thing for his Ruler to save Eighth, but why did he bring it with him?

Moreover, when the number one genius of the Thunder God Palace came to him, he directly killed the number one genius?

“Miss Eighth, do you know why my Ruler did this?” Jian Wushuang asked.

“I know.” Eighth nodded slightly. “I only found out later. It turns out that he looks very similar to Brother Xuan Yi’s wife.”

“What?” Jian Wushuang was stunned.

Wife?

His Ruler had a wife?

“That’s the reason. When brother Xuan Yi saw Lei Yi harboring evil intentions toward me, he killed him directly. Then he took me to hide in the Nine Luminaries Galaxy and lived for nearly 100,000 years. During these 100,000 years, Brother Xuan Yi only looked at me quietly most of the time and hardly spoke to me. In the past 100,000 years, he probably said less than 10 words to me,” Eighth said.
