138: Imperial conspiracy!

After Jiang Taibai and the others stood up, Chu Yun responded calmly and composedly, “How can this be? You all have traveled a long way to come here, so I must treat you before you leave.”

“To be so hasty, would it not make my Great Xia lose face?”

Jiang Taibai smiled and said, “We appreciate the Chu Emperor’s kind intentions, but we have urgent matters to attend to and must return to the General Tower as soon as possible.”

“If there’s a chance next time, we will definitely come to Great Xia to accept the Chu Emperor’s hospitality.”

Chu Yun nodded, “Alright, in that case, I won’t force you to stay.”

“Luo Feng, see them off for me.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Luo Feng then led Jiang Taibai and the others from Misty Rain Tower out of the Imperial Study.

After all of them left, the Heavenly Demoness and Meng Ruxue looked greatly puzzled, their eyes fixed on Chu Yun: “What’s going on?”

“You know this Jiang Taibai?”

Chu Yun’s demeanor was too calm, making it seem as if he had already expected this outcome.

But in truth, Chu Yun was initially unsure.

After all, the people from Thatched Cottage had never appeared in his memory.

However, Jiang Taibai’s words and attitude just now had allowed him to be absolutely certain that his two Dao Protectors had definitely met them.

Otherwise, the dignified Guardian Elder of the North Tower, a super powerful being at the Eternal Realm, would not be so polite to him.

“No, I don’t.”

“This Emperor and he, including the others besides Xu Nian, are meeting for the first time,” Chu Yun responded calmly.

The Heavenly Demoness stared at him with wide, bright eyes, “Then how did you predict they would have such an attitude?”

“That Jiang Taibai, if I’m not mistaken, is mostly related to that Old Ancestor of the Jiang family, and that person is also the current Tower Master of the North Tower.”

“By common sense, with his background, he shouldn’t have this attitude when investigating Han Sen’s matter.”

“Unless... someone put pressure on him?”

Meng Ruxue also looked at Chu Yun; both women could sense that Chu Yun was definitely hiding many secrets.

Chu Yun smiled, “Then you two guess, who could have possibly put pressure on him?”

The Heavenly Demoness subconsciously replied, “Aside from those Tower Master-level figures of Misty Rain Tower, besides that, I’m afraid there’s no one else who could make a Guardian Elder of Misty Rain Tower give such leeway, right?”

Chu Yun nodded, “That’s a very reasonable analysis.”

“But honestly, I don’t know who stepped forward.”

“However, at least from now on, the trouble from Misty Rain Tower will no longer exist.”

Chu Yun then stood up and walked to the door. Hearing this, the two women, though very curious, exchanged glances and did not press further.

They understood Chu Yun’s character; when he truly wanted them to know, they would naturally know.

In fact, Chu Yun was not deliberately hiding it from them at this moment.

It was because in the eyes of the people from Thatched Cottage, he didn’t even know he was the Seventh Mister of Thatched Cottage, so he couldn’t explain it clearly to the Heavenly Demoness and the other woman.

After all, his two Emperor Realm Dao Protectors might be within the Imperial City right now, and who knew if they were watching him.

“So now that the Misty Rain Tower matter is resolved, are you going to take action against the Tian Qu Dynasty and the Nine Heavens Dynasty next?” Meng Ruxue then asked.

Chu Yun, with his back to them, nodded slightly, “Almost.”

“Tomorrow at the morning court, this Emperor will arrange everything.”

“The Hundred Dynasty Land, it’s time for it to welcome its true master!”

As he spoke these words, a trace of ambition, undisguised, flashed in Chu Yun’s eyes.

That ambition was the strong posture of an emperor, and also the grand aspiration to lead the Great Xia Dynasty to expand its territory and reach the Peak!

… … … … …

After this, Jiang Taibai, as the investigative envoy sent by Misty Rain Tower, after a trip to the Great Xia Imperial Palace, had Misty Rain Tower in the Hundred Dynasty Land publicly announce.

Han Sen, the Tower Master of the Thousand Melody Misty Rain Tower, had indeed violated the rules of Misty Rain Tower. After a rigorous investigation by several envoys, his various crimes were found to be consistent with the Chu Emperor’s description.

His crimes were heinous and unforgivable!

Therefore, the Chu Emperor killing Han Sen was acting on behalf of Heaven and also cleaning up the sect for Misty Rain Tower.

Regarding this matter, Misty Rain Tower would not pursue it, and furthermore, it expressed its sincere gratitude in the name of Yan Yu General Tower.

As soon as this news came out, within a few hours, under the operation of the various Yan Yu branch towers throughout the Hundred Dynasty Land, it instantly spread across the entire Hundred Dynasty Land.

All the schadenfreude Imperial Dynasties received a heavy blow!

No one expected the investigation results from Misty Rain Tower to be released so quickly.

Moreover, Chu Yun was completely fine and even received gratitude from Yan Yu General Tower, which directly astonished those who wanted to see the Great Xia Dynasty suffer.

“I never thought things could turn out this way.”

“This Misty Rain Tower is truly dedicated to its own rules.”

“This Chu Yun and the Great Xia Dynasty are truly lucky enough.”

“I didn’t expect this Han Sen to really be an Evil Infant, manipulating imperial power, slaughtering living beings, and secretly doing so many evil things. His death can be considered well-deserved.”

… … … …

As soon as Misty Rain Tower’s announcement was released, within many Imperial Dynasties in the Hundred Dynasty Land, discussions about the matter were fervent.

Discussions were widespread; some thought the Great Xia Dynasty was really lucky this time, while others thought Han Sen truly did so many bad things, so Chu Yun killing him was not a bad thing.

In short, there were various opinions everywhere, with all sorts of things being said.

… … … …

Tian Qu Dynasty.

At this moment, within the Imperial Palace of the Tian Qu Dynasty.

This was an Imperial Palace suspended above the Imperial City, with the Imperial Dynasty’s Dragon Qi falling like a yellow river, supporting countless magnificent palaces.

Within the deep palace.

Two middle-aged men in Dragon robes sat opposite each other. Beside one of them sat several Elders at the King Sealing Realm Peak.

These Elders were the clan Elders of the Tian Qu Dynasty.

And the man in the Dragon robe and imperial crown next to them was the current ruler of the Tian Qu Dynasty, Huang Jingmu.

Sitting opposite him was Tang Ge, the current ruler of the Nine Heavens Dynasty.

“Brother Huang, Sinian Yun and Si Xingyun are still alive, and both are currently within the Great Xia Dynasty.”

“Back then, the spatial coordinates that Si Tianyuan obtained, along with the Yuanming Dynasty’s treasure, went missing, and we couldn’t find them no matter how hard we searched.”

“Now it seems, those two items are highly likely to be on those two remnants.”

“Furthermore, Chu Yun of the Great Xia Dynasty, now relying on having several Saints, acts so arrogantly that he has already caused great dissatisfaction among several other Imperial Dynasties.”

“Since that’s the case, why don’t our two great Imperial Dynasties take the lead again and make the Great Xia Dynasty the next Distant Bright?”

“Brother Huang, what do you think?”

Tang Ge, the ruler of the Nine Heavens Dynasty, spoke to Huang Jingmu, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his characteristic triangular eyes.

Recalling the past, the Yuanming Dynasty was led by their two great Imperial Dynasties, who rallied several other Imperial Dynasties to jointly annihilate it.

Now, the Great Xia Dynasty’s actions had already caused dissatisfaction among multiple of the Ten Great Dynasties. Since that was the case, Tang Ge completely didn’t mind making the Great Xia Dynasty repeat the fate of the Yuanming Dynasty!

Huang Jingmu listened to his words and calmly pondered for a moment.

The Tian Qu Dynasty, as the strongest Imperial Dynasty in the Hundred Dynasty Land, surpassed the Nine Heavens Dynasty in both foundation and strength.

This was also the main reason why Tang Ge, despite already having this idea in his mind, still had to ask for Huang Jingmu’s opinion.
