Thinking of his son, Shangguan Wenji choked and asked, "Young Master Xi, How is my son Shangguan Heng? Is he still alive?"

As soon as Shangguan Wenji spoke, a beautiful woman beside him also showed an anxious expression while staring at He Xi.

He Xi glanced at the woman and guessed she was the birth mother of the Sixth Prince, Imperial Concubine Zhu.

Based on this woman's beautiful and charming looks, it was difficult to connect her to Zhu Yiqun and Zhu Zhongba.

He Xi nodded and said, "Don't worry, Shangguan Heng is now in Hell's Manor. There is nothing serious."

Shangguan Wenji was overjoyed immediately, but when he remembered what happened in Broken Soul Mountain, he was filled with guilt and felt like he could not lift his head in front of this young man.

"Young Master Xi, I'm really sorry about what happened in Broken Soul Mountain. First, I wronged you, but I later found out the truth and knew that Rui'er was killed by Feng Lianying, but due to the Feng Family's power, I didn't dare to oppose them...The Shangguan Family has mistreated you in that way and I didn't expect that you would be willing to come and save me today."

He Xi interrupted him with a cold expression, "You don't have to apologize to me because I have conditions in saving you. These conditions were already negotiated with your son, Shangguan Heng."

"What...what conditions?"

He Xi smiled slightly and spoke in a deep voice, "I want the Zhenwei Army."

"This...how can this be!" Shangguan Wenji exclaimed, but his immediate reaction caused his body to shudder, and he whispered, "Young Master Xi, I...I am not greedy enough to keep the Zhenwei Army, but the Zhenwei Army is the Ouyang Family's private army and cannot be mobilized without a soldier talisman. Moreover, the Zhenwei Army is the only thing left of the Ouyang Family. I...I really hope that Ouyang Haoxuan can come back. This is the only thing I have left to compensate for the Ouyang Family..."

Shangguan Wenji's words eased He Xi's expression a lot.

This old emperor didn't seem to be cold-blooded or ruthless on the surface. He was really feeling guilty towards the Ouyang Family.

He Xi pursed her lips and slowly took out a soldier talisman from her arms. She spread her slender and smooth palms, revealing the ocher-red animal-shaped soldier talisman.

"Ah--!" Shangguan Wenji exclaimed, "This...isn't this the Zhenwei Army's talisman? How is it in your hands?"

He Xi put away the soldier's talisman and said lightly, "I happened to be by his side when General Ouyang died and gave me the soldier's talisman. As for Ouyang Haoxuan....he is on the way to the Zenwei Army barracks."

"Ouyang Haoxuan is still alive?" Shangguan Wenji trembled with excitement, "Really alive? That's great! That's great!"

Shangguan Wenji was plagued by guilt day and night, but at this moment, he finally saw the light.

He looked at Black Spirit fighting against Nangong Yu and his trembling children in the Palace.

He ground his teeth and said with a shaky tone, "Okay, I am willing to issue the imperial decree. As long as the person holding the talisman receives the Zhenwei Army and Ouyang Haoxuan is alive, the Zhenwei Army will no longer belong to Jinling or the Imperial Family. But please, Young Master Xi and King of Hell, save the lives of my Shangguang Family."

He Xi's lips curled into a smile, and with a clear voice, "Okay, deal!"

She walked to Shangguan Wenji's side and held his intact hand as her water spiritual power slowly penetrated.
