108: Imperial Master Tianxiang, Dean Xuantian

First Princes Residence.

"Your Highness, Minister Changsun invited Xie Weilou today."

A guard respectfully saluted Yan Junlin.

Yan Junlin was watering flowers, and he said with a smile, "Grandfather Changsun's birthday, he invited many officials. Isn't it normal to invite Xie Weilou?"

The guard said in a deep voice, "Yan Wuhai might be behind this."

Yan Junlin chuckled, "No matter! Go prepare a gift. I'll have to go to the Minister's Residence then too."

"Understood!"

The guard saluted again, then turned and withdrew.

After the guard withdrew.

Yan Junlin looked out the window and murmured, "Second Hall, do you want to win over Xie Weilou, or do you want to win over Lin Qinghuang? If so, then the matter of the Lin family's destruction... was it a scapegoat? Interesting!"

——————

Tianquan Division, Second Hall.

Xie Weilou was sitting with his legs crossed, leisurely drinking tea. He glanced at Lin Qinghuang, who was looking at a scroll beside him: "Changsun Ming invited me to his grandfather's birthday banquet. What do you think of this?"

Lin Qinghuang closed the scroll and said calmly, "Yan Wuhai is close to the Ministry of Works. Yan Wuhai's hand is in this matter, but he is not trying to win you over."

Xie Weilou said with a smile, "Now that I am close to you, winning me over is just a facade. He might want to win you over, or he might want to send you a message!"

Lin Qinghuang nodded slightly: "The matter of the Lin family's destruction has been traced to him. He must think I will continue to watch him, but he wants to win me over through you. This is him expressing a meaning: the matter of the Lin family's destruction has nothing to do with him."

If the destruction of the Lin family was related to Yan Wuhai, the other party would certainly not show the idea of winning over, but rather want to erase it. Now that the other party conveys the idea of winning over, this indicates some meaning.

Xie Weilou asked, "How do you plan to resolve this?"

Lin Qinghuang said indifferently, "Simple! You go to the banquet as usual, I will not participate in this matter. Since there is already a target, we cannot let the target think that we have already suspected him, so it will be easier to act secretly."

This target is naturally Yan Wugou. As for Yan Wuhai, he can be investigated a little to confuse the public.

Yan Wugou still cannot be underestimated. If he knows that they are watching him, he will definitely take many precautions.

Xie Weilou smiled faintly, "Lin Qinghuang, as cunning as a fox, truly dangerous."

Lin Qinghuang stared at Xie Weilou, her eyes narrowing: "Is that so? Why do I feel someone else is even more dangerous?"

"Consider it a compliment."

Xie Weilou continued to sip his tea.

Not long after.

Baili Changqing entered the main hall.

Lin Qinghuang and Xie Weilou stood up: "Greetings, Pacification Envoy."

Baili Changqing nodded slightly, he pondered, "I need to tell you something. The person sent by the Nine Heavens Tower this time is extremely unusual. You have been targeted, so you must be careful!"

Xie Weilou feigned surprise and asked, "Pacification Envoy is powerful, can't he solve those people alone?"

Baili Changqing smiled bitterly, "I only have Dao Repository Peak cultivation, I can't hold the fort!"

"Isn't there also a mysterious Siming in the Tianquan Division?"

Xie Weilou said.

Baili Changqing said in a deep voice, "I have already informed Lord Siming about this matter. He will act when the time comes, but this matter is very complicated. The Nine Heavens Tower is unfathomable, and the powerful experts who came to Tianqi this time may not have come solely for you, which is why I want to remind you to be extra careful."

The Nine Heavens Tower is eerie and unpredictable. When Lord Siming learned of this, he also seemed extremely wary, and even deliberately went to the Qintian Bureau and the Holy Academy, which is enough to explain many problems.

"Understood, we will be careful."

Lin Qinghuang replied with a serious expression.

"Before this matter is over, do not handle any cases, and do not go out alone."

Baili Changqing solemnly instructed.

"Mhm!"

Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang nodded slightly.

"......"

Baili Changqing did not say much either, and left quickly.

Xie Weilou looked at Lin Qinghuang: "You go home a little later today. I'll go meet that State Preceptor Li Guanqi then."

One's own fate must be grasped by oneself. Do not place hope on unreliable people.

To put it bluntly, in the eyes of some powerful figures, he and Lin Qinghuang are like ants, dispensable. If a great killing intent appears, those powerful figures may not be able to protect them.

"You be careful."

Lin Qinghuang said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry!"

Xie Weilou smiled indifferently.

——————

Qintian Bureau.

On a huge astrolabe, an old man dressed in a white robe, with an immortal demeanor, was holding a piece of paper and reciting the poem on it: "White Jade Capital in the heavens, twelve towers and five cities. Immortals touch my crown, hair tied, I receive eternal life. What kind of existence could write such a poem?"

This old man was National Teacher Yuan Tianxiang, a powerful expert of the Divine Court Realm.

Beside him, Li Haoran respectfully said, "Teacher, this poem was written by Xie Weilou in White Jade Capital, but according to Princess, this poem was plagiarized by Xie Weilou."

"Oh? Copied from whom?"

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang asked with a smile.

Li Haoran said, "They say it's from someone called Sword Immortal Li Taibai."

"Sword Immortal Li Taibai?"

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang's expression was strange, then he shook his head and said, "There is no such existence in Great Xia."

"So the student also feels very strange, but Princess seems to have investigated the Tianquan Division's Dungeon... Could there be some unfathomable existence hidden in the Dungeon?"

Li Haoran was a little puzzled.

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang narrowed his eyes and waved his hand, "You may go down first!"

Li Haoran was stunned for a second, then bowed and said, "Student takes his leave."

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang looked in one direction, smiled, and cupped his hands, "May I ask why the Dean has come to my Qintian Bureau?"

An old man dressed in coarse gray cloth and wearing a straw hat stepped through the air. He instantly appeared on the astrolabe and said with a faint smile, "To have a cup of tea with you."

This old man was the Dean of the Great Xia Holy Academy, Zhou Xuantian, also a powerful expert of the Divine Court Realm.

In Great Xia, Divine Court Realm experts were few and far between, and now two had appeared before them.

"Please!"

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang extended his hand.

Zhou Xuantian sat down beside him.

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang poured a cup of fragrant tea.

Zhou Xuantian picked up the fragrant tea, took a sip, and said, "National Teacher should know about the ten thousand souls banner, right!"

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang smiled bitterly, "Troublesome! That thing shouldn't appear in Great Xia."

Zhou Xuantian pondered, "The Nine Heavens Tower has sent many people to Great Xia this time, mainly for the ten thousand souls banner and that Mysterious Person."

"What does the Dean mean?"

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang asked.

Zhou Xuantian gently pinched the teacup: "Block them! Are we going to let them overturn Tianqi to find someone? Otherwise, what face would Great Xia have?"

"Then let's block them!"

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang nodded slightly.

As if thinking of something.

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang also said, "Is there a special existence in the Tianquan Division's Dungeon?"

Zhou Xuantian chuckled, "You calculate everything, don't tell me you don't know about this."

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang smiled wryly, he handed a piece of paper to Zhou Xuantian: "Look at this poem."

Zhou Xuantian took the paper, glanced at it, and a strange look appeared in his eyes: "Only an extraordinary person could write such a poem."

He stared at Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang: "You suspect that drunkard? He does have some ability, but not this poetic talent."

Imperial Preceptor Yuan Tianxiang said meaningfully, "I suspect another drunkard, the one surnamed Xie..."

Zhou Xuantian put down the paper and shook his head: "Then I don't understand!"
