94: Action at night, the imperial city is in turmoil!

After Consort Shi’s poison was completely cured, Chu Yun first had her stay at his Prince's Residence.

After all, it would be safest for his Imperial Concubine to be in his Prince's Residence from now on.

Chu Yun was somewhat uneasy about her returning to the Imperial Palace.

Moreover, Chu Yun also had Heavenly Demoness and Meng Ruxue chat with her, and Consort Shi’s mood was even better than when she was in the Imperial Palace.

...

At the pavilion.

Chu Yun, Carefree Master, and the Four Knights were all present.

“Yesterday, Xu Nian, the General Supervisor of Misty Rain Tower, sent me a message.”

“The content was, ‘Many people are eyeing Imperial Ancestral Mountain, and even a Supreme Realm expert might be in danger there.’ ”

“The meaning is a bit vague, but it’s still a hint,” Chu Yun said at this moment.

“Misty Rain Tower proactively giving you a reminder… it seems your personal relationship with this Xu Nian is quite good, no?” Carefree Master said with a slight smile, surprised.

Chu Yun shook his head: “My relationship with him is just average.”

“I also can’t quite figure out why he would proactively give me a reminder.”

Death Knight said: “Sect Master, even if other forces are eyeing Great Xia, it doesn’t matter.”

“As long as the Sect Master gives the order, the four of us will fight for Great Xia!”

Chu Yun was fully aware of the Four Knights’ stance.

He just happened to mention it at this moment; he had four Saints by his side.

To be honest, in this Hundred Dynasty Land, he could already walk sideways without fear of anything.

After all, Xu Nian couldn't possibly know that he was actually the Sect Master of Tianqi Sect!

...

Night.

The top floor of Misty Rain Tower.

“You’re saying that Carefree Master came to Great Xia, went to Chu Yun’s Prince's Residence, and hasn’t left since?”

“In other words, this unrivaled Sword Cultivator, who traveled such a long distance from Divine Continent Pure Land to get here, is here for Chu Yun?”

Smoky Rain Pavilion Master Han Sen still only heard the voice, but saw no one.

But his voice at this moment seemed so incredulous.

Could Chu Yun and Carefree Master know each other?

This was a bit too bizarre, wasn’t it?

“Their relationship is currently unclear.”

“But Carefree Master is indeed in the Ninth Princes Mansion now; there’s no doubt about that.”

“Pavilion Master, according to the General Tower’ previous order, if Carefree Master proactively seeks us out, we should do our best to satisfy any request.”

“So now that he’s in Chu Yun’s Prince's Residence, should we proactively send someone there?” Xu Nian asked.

“No need.”

“That would be too deliberate, and besides, my Misty Rain Tower has no precedent of proactively showing goodwill to other individuals or forces.”

“Even if he is someone admired by Vice Pavilion Master Yin, we cannot set this precedent.”

“Everything will remain a wait-and-see situation.”

“I have a premonition that Carefree Master coming to find Chu Yun at this time is very likely related to tomorrow’s imperial city turmoil.”

“Have our people closely monitor the movements of all major forces within the imperial city; I want first-hand intelligence,” Smoky Rain Pavilion Master Han Sen ordered.

“Yes, Pavilion Master!”

...

Tonight, the streets of the imperial city became somewhat deserted.

Some forces within the imperial city seemed to sense an impending storm, instructing their respective clan Disciples not to go out privately.

Midnight.

The Emperor entered Imperial Ancestral Mountain just after midnight.

His Five Heavenly Declines descended, and he needed to concentrate fully on dealing with them; he was powerless to control anything outside at this moment!

National Preceptors Mansion.

At this moment, in that underground palace.

National Preceptor Feng Tianzheng, Vice Sect Leader Yan Ru Jun, Zhou Lin, Jiang Xie, Guiqi, Qi Quan, and more than a dozen Venerable Realm experts were all gathered here.

Before long, the space in the underground palace tore open.

Empress Lan Ji, followed by the Sect Masters of the three sects, as well as Crown Prince Chu Rong, Third Prince Chu Yuan, and a group of Guest Elders under the Crown Prince, all emerged from the Void Realm.

“Greetings, Empress.”

Vice Sect Leader Yan Ru Jun and Jiang Xie immediately took the lead, bowing to Lan Ji.

“Everyone, please rise.” Lan Ji nodded.

“Thank you, Empress.”

Only then did everyone raise their heads.

Immediately, the Empress announced: “Half an incense stick ago, Your Majesty already entered Imperial Ancestral Mountain, fully concentrating on overcoming his Five Heavenly Declines, and this also means that our operation can begin!”

“Please give your orders, Empress!” the Venerable Realm experts said.

“Good.”

“Those hostile forces of the Imperial Dynasty will be handled by the Heavenly Venerables.”

“And what you all need to do is to control all neutral officials and centralize their power!”

“The control of the four city gates is now in our hands; tonight, this city will completely become our hunting ground!”

“Everyone, let’s move!”

Lan Ji’s inspiring declaration ignited the hearts of the more than a dozen Venerable Realm experts, making them eager and impatient to act!

“Yes!!”

Vice Sect Leader Yan Ru Jun and the others immediately tore through space and left the underground palace, heading to the residences of various officials.

“Junior Sister, have the Shadow Guard arrangements been made?”

“Jin Mu still hasn’t shown up, we have to guard against him,” Nie Ming reminded her, standing beside her.

“I have already mobilized the army, and Old Xue will also go there; no matter how strong Jin Mu is, with a Heavenly Venerable taking action, he can only be defeated.”

“Let’s go.”

“We’ll go meet the Shi Family’s Patriarch and the current Prime Minister first.”

Lan Ji’s face was confident; the space before them tore open again, and then, all of their figures disappeared within the underground palace.

...

In addition, the Empress Faction’s forces within the imperial city also received the news and began to move.

The Cai Family and Lu Family, the forces of the two great aristocratic families, gathered together, led personally by the Cai Family Old Ancestor and the two Patriarchs, setting out to take down the Yan Residence!
