31: Target the Third Prince, meet at Cangfeng Mountains!

“Yes… Your Highness, I understand.”

“After I deliver the letter, should I go and meet up with you all?” Luo Feng asked slowly after accepting these matters in his heart.

“No need.”

“After you deliver it, shake off everyone following you, then just return to the Princes Residence,” Chu Yun said.

Luo Feng nodded.

At this moment, the Heavenly Demoness revealed a charming smile, “What? You want me to go to the Eastern Palace? Are you planning to deal with the Crown Prince directly?”

Chu Yun shook his head: “That’s up to you.”

“But I’m afraid if you control him, you might expose yourself, and then it would be more trouble than it’s worth.”

Within the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince has many retainers.

It’s even rumored that the Empress personally sent a Dao Protector to guard him in secret.

This Clone of the Heavenly Demoness is only at the Early Stage of the Shattered Realm.

If she were to enter the Eastern Palace and directly attack the Crown Prince, the possibility of exposure would be too high.

The Heavenly Demoness had an indifferent expression: “Then let’s change targets.”

“How about the Third Prince?”

Chu Yun looked at her, his eyes somewhat expectant: “Oh? You’re confident?”

“Naturally.”

“He’s not as highly regarded as Chu Rong.”

“He’s in his own Princes Residence; it’s not difficult to impersonate him,” the Heavenly Demoness said confidently.

“Good.”

“Then let’s act against Chu Yuan.”

“Shadow Guard Commander Luo Feng, you will assist Jade Girl then,” Chu Yun instructed.

Luo Feng couldn't help but swallow nervously.

Acting against the Third Prince, this was too thrilling.

It seemed the Ninth Prince truly intended to gradually settle the matters from back then.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Despite this, Luo Feng still responded.

Unbeknownst to him, he, the Shadow Guard Commander, had already subtly aligned himself with Chu Yun’s faction.

………

Prime Ministers Residence.

Inside Meng Ruxue’s boudoir.

“Young Miss, all the Materials for those Formations have been found.”

“As for a suitable place to set up the Formation, I’m still sending people to search for it. There are many dangerous mountain ranges outside the city, so there should be results soon.”

The beautiful woman reported to Meng Ruxue, who was sitting on a chair.

Meng Ruxue’s expression was cold, and she said indifferently: “Also, help me collect a list of all Cultivators at the Early Stage of the Nirvana Realm in the Imperial City, regardless of their background.”

“Yes, Young Miss.”

Meng Ruxue continued: “Oh, right, earlier I asked you to keep a close watch on the Black Iron King and the Eastern Palace’s movements. How are things now?”

The beautiful woman replied truthfully: “Young Miss, I’ve had people watching both places, and currently, no abnormalities have been found.”

“However, Young Miss, I don’t understand how you are so certain that the person who entrusted Misty Rain Tower to release the message looking for Xiao Yan would be from those two factions?”

Meng Ruxue smiled coldly: “Within the entire Imperial City, those who can offer a Nirvana Realm Evil Infant as a meeting gift, besides the Empress and the Imperial Advisor, are only my Prime Ministers Residence.”

“Although other forces also have commercial guilds in the city, it would take at least five to ten days to transport an Evil Infant into the city.”

“Since the Prime Ministers Residence doesn’t have it, then it can only be the other two.”

“The Imperial Advisor and the Empress are in the same faction, so we only need to keep a close eye on the main forces of the Empress Faction.”

“That old fellow, the Imperial Advisor, is likely not to act personally.”

“Therefore, the Eastern Palace and the Black Iron King naturally become the top priority.”

As the daughter of the Prime Minister, Meng Ruxue was very clear about the situation of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.

The information she could obtain with her status was far superior to that of the Heavenly Demoness, who reincarnated with her.

As the saying goes, being born into a good family is also a skill.

Therefore, she only needed to keep an eye on the movements of the Empress Faction, and then she could follow them to find the Heavenly Demoness disguised as Xiao Yan!

“So that’s how it is. Such clear and meticulous analysis, truly worthy of Young Miss,” the beautiful woman said admiringly.

“Alright, you may go.”

“Once collected, bring the list to me as soon as possible.”

“Young Miss, rest assured, I will go immediately!”

………………

At night, the Imperial City was brightly lit, the streets were bustling, and the atmosphere was lively.

Misty Rain Tower remained the most prosperous and dazzling stage in the entire Imperial City.

Luo Feng, wearing a mask, arrived in the main hall and found an Elder from before.

“I am Young Master Xiao Yan’s guard. I am here to speak with Xu Director.”

The Elder recognized Luo Feng and said with some excitement: “Your Excellency, please wait a moment, I will immediately go and invite Director Xu.”

Before long, the Elder invited Xu Nian.

“Hahahaha.”

“Friend, why didn’t Young Master Xiao come today?”

Xu Nian looked at Luo Feng and asked with a laugh.

“Young Master is waiting elsewhere.”

“I am here on Young Master’s orders to relay a message to Director Xu.”

Xu Nian asked curiously: “What message?”

“Someone anonymously entrusted your esteemed tower to release a message, stating that if Young Master meets with the other party, they will offer a Nirvana Realm Evil Infant as a meeting gift. Is this true?” Luo Feng asked first.

“Indeed.”

“Is Young Master Xiao Yan planning to meet with the other party?” Xu Nian had already guessed a little.

Luo Feng said directly: “Young Master can meet with them, but the meeting place must be chosen by us.”

Xu Nian nodded: “That’s not a problem. It’s just a meeting; the location doesn’t matter.”

“Good.”

“Then tonight at midnight, in the Cangfeng Mountain Range outside the city, Young Master will be waiting for them at the mountain peak. Please trouble Director Xu to relay this message to the other party,” Luo Feng said.

Xu Nian nodded: “Alright, I will relay it immediately.”

“Thank you, then I shall take my leave.”

“Farewell.”

Luo Feng turned and left.

Xu Nian looked sideways at a few Misty Rain Tower Elders in the distance.

Those few understood perfectly and followed directly behind Luo Feng, exiting Misty Rain Tower.

“Sir, should we go to the Cangfeng Mountain Range immediately?”

“Since this Xiao Yan meets our conditions, wouldn’t it be bad if the Black Iron King and his people got there first?”

The Elder behind Xu Nian asked worriedly.

Xu Nian’s expression was calm, his eyes filled with profound meaning: “I always feel that things are not that simple.”

“You first send this message to the Black Iron King and his people, don’t miss the time.”

“Yes, Sir.”

The Elder immediately went to deliver the message.

Xu Nian stood still and pondered for a moment, then finally walked upstairs.

For this matter, it was better to see their Tower Master’s decision first.

…………

After receiving the news, the Black Iron King left his Residence overnight and entered the Eastern Palace.

At this moment, in the main hall of the Eastern Palace.

Crown Prince Chu Rong was seated at the head, and the Black Iron King, Wang Hancuo, Prince of Guanshan Beisong, and some of the Crown Prince’s retainers were all seated in the hall.

“Misty Rain Tower’s message states that Xiao Yan has agreed to meet.”

“However, the meeting place will be decided by Xiao Yan.”

“Tonight at midnight, in the Cangfeng Mountain Range outside the Imperial City, he will be waiting for us at the mountain peak.”

The Black Iron King also relayed Misty Rain Tower’s message to everyone present.
