679: Chapter 679: The Master of Mingyue Tower
Inside the First Prince's mansion, the First Prince, Eastern Sky Rage, had also received the news!
"Have you still not found out the specific identity of that person? Do you think that person might be a strong reinforcement called over by my younger brothers?"
Eastern Sky Rage picked up the teacup on the table, took a slow sip, and said indifferently, "The Nine Dragons Seizing the Throne hasn't even officially begun yet, and there are already so many people stirring, with so many monsters and demons jumping out."
Below him were six followers, all trusted core members who had long tied their fates to his.
"Your Highness, that is possible, but we have too little information at hand, and it is difficult to find out the other party's specific identity in such a short time!"
"Moreover, as soon as the other party arrived, he entered Mingyue Pavilion to seek pleasure and rarely comes out. The spies we arranged inside simply cannot make contact with him!"
Just at this moment, a middle-aged man wearing iron armor with a sinister expression stood up and said in a deep voice!
Eastern Sky Rage glanced at the people below: "Then tell me, how should we deal with this unknown mysterious Great Saint Realm expert?"
"Your Highness, the top priority is to figure out the other party's identity and purpose. We can first try to make contact with him to probe his intentions, and then make plans. We cannot simply classify him as an enemy just because his identity is unknown!"
"Such behavior is too dangerous and will provoke many unnecessary enemies!"
A middle-aged man who was dressed very elegantly, with a dignified face, a mustache above his lips, and full of scholarly aura, stepped forward and said!
His name was Hu Daoru, the strategist for the First Prince, Eastern Sky Rage. He had always been offering advice to Eastern Sky Rage and helping to manage external forces, holding a special position in the First Prince's mansion!
"Mr. Hu's words make sense. We can try to contact that person and probe his purpose. Perhaps he isn't an enemy after all?"
"At that time, we can try to win him over. Even if we cannot, we can try to make him stand aside. After all, not everyone is willing to participate in the Nine Dragons Seizing the Throne!"
The few people below nodded one after another after hearing Hu Daoru's words!
Many Martial Artists in the Great Saint Realm are not interested in these power struggles and are unwilling to get involved in the Empire's power struggles.
Regardless of who becomes the emperor, it has little impact on them, so they are very difficult to win over.
"Fine, since that's the case, the task of contacting him will be left to you, Daoru. Go and probe his purpose!"
Eastern Sky Rage nodded upon hearing this. It was not uncommon for a Great Saint Realm expert to come to the imperial capital of their Nine Yang Imperial Dynasty, and normally, this would not have attracted such great attention from him!
However, the other party entered Mingyue Pavilion, which was somewhat special. It was his third younger brother's sphere of influence, so he couldn't help but be suspicious!
These brothers of his who intended to participate in the Nine Dragons Seizing the Throne all had their own supporters and, at the same time, their own spheres of influence. Every move they made would attract the attention of others.
And once they could win the support of a Great Saint Realm Martial Artist, they would occupy a huge advantage in the subsequent struggle of the Nine Dragons Seizing the Throne. It was precisely because of this point.
Qin Xiao's appearance caused them to discuss it, gathering them together to devise a plan!
The same scene was playing out among several other princes. They all sent people to Mingyue Pavilion to try to contact Qin Xiao and probe his attitude.
At the same time, they were also trying to win him over to see if they could bring him into their own camp. Even if they couldn't, they had to stabilize him, let him watch the show quietly, and as long as he didn't take action to help their opponents, it would be fine!
...
As these princes made their decisions, the pavilion where Qin Xiao was staying immediately became lively. Many people arrived one after another, carrying gifts to visit him, disturbing his mood!
For those who disturbed his good time, he directly rejected them at the door. He didn't want to get involved in these messy affairs of the Nine Yang Imperial Dynasty!
He only wanted to suppress Oriental Tianmu and then plunder the qi luck value on him; he was not very interested in anything else, let alone participating in this power game!
But now, Oriental Tianmu had been staying in the imperial city, leaving him no suitable opportunity, so he was waiting for the right moment.
...
"Young Master, my Tower Master wants to see you; she has important matters to discuss with you."
Shi Yin knelt before Qin Xiao and said softly!
"Your Tower Master wants to see me? What for?" Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows upon hearing this. During this period, many people wanted to visit him, but he had rejected them all. He didn't expect that someone still wanted to see him. Was he really that popular?
"This, this servant does not know. How could this servant guess the Tower Master's thoughts!" Shi Yin lowered her head.
"Then tell me, should I see your Tower Master?" Qin Xiao smiled slightly, then pinched Shi Yin's cheek and said with a chuckle!
"That, this servant naturally hopes that Young Master will see the Tower Master!"
"Fine, then lead the way. I'll go see your Tower Master and see what she wants with me!"
Qin Xiao nodded. After all, he was currently residing in Mingyue Pavilion, and since the owner of Mingyue Pavilion wanted to see him, he naturally would not refuse!
Following Shi Yin, Qin Xiao arrived at a secluded palace and met the Mingyue Tower Master who wanted to see him!
Although the other party was wearing a mask and her appearance could not be seen, judging from her graceful and charming figure, she was definitely a stunner, and her looks would not be bad at all.
While Qin Xiao was sizing her up, she was also sizing him up.
After bringing Qin Xiao here, Shi Yin knew that the two had important matters to discuss, so she consciously retreated!
"This concubine has seen Fellow Daoist. I wonder if you are satisfied with the hospitality of my Mingyue Pavilion during this time?"
The Mingyue Tower Master broke the silence first, smiling at Qin Xiao, her tone very gentle.
Qin Xiao smiled slightly, "Tower Master, I am quite satisfied with your hospitality, but I do not know why you specifically invited me here today?"
The Mingyue Tower Master smiled lightly, her voice as melodious as an oriole: "Since Fellow Daoist is so straightforward, I will speak directly. Recently, this imperial capital has stirred up quite a wave because of you, and many princes have turned their attention to you. Have you noticed?"
Qin Xiao crossed his arms, his expression indifferent: "Naturally, but these have little to do with me, so there is no need to care too much."
"These indeed do not have much to do with you!" The Mingyue Tower Master nodded slightly, "I wonder what Fellow Daoist thinks about the upcoming Nine Dragons Seizing the Throne? Who do you think can ascend to the imperial throne and become the new Nine Yang Emperor!"
