508: Baili Dongjun suffered a setback

"It's been a while, Junior Sister. I missed you, so I came to see how you were doing." Baili Dongjun smiled and sat down next to Li Hanyi.

"Speak plainly..." Li Hanyi gave him no Face at all.

"No, Junior Sister, how can you say that about me?" Baili Dongjun looked at his Junior Sister with a wronged expression.

"What? If there's nothing, I'm leaving..." Li Hanyi said and turned to walk away.

"Don't go, Junior Sister, there is something, Senior Brother needs to talk to you." Baili Dongjun quickly stopped Li Hanyi.

"What is it?"

"Prince Duan's visit to Snow Moon City this time, besides finding you, does he have another purpose?" Baili Dongjun's expression suddenly turned serious.

"Haven't you already figured it out, Senior Brother?" Li Hanyi retorted.

"Could it be that Prince Duan really came to deal with Emperor Taian?"

Baili Dongjun's expression changed, and his brows furrowed deeply.

If that were truly the case, then Northern Li might really plunge into war.

"Junior Sister, are you just going to let him kill Emperor Taian? If that really happens, the entire Northern Li will fall into chaos, and the common people will once again suffer the ravages of war. By then, there will be widespread devastation."

"Snow Moon City will also lose its former tranquility. I'm afraid that the Demonic Sect will take the opportunity to act, and then Northern Li will descend into great chaos." Baili Dongjun said with a heavy tone, looking at Li Hanyi.

"So, what does this have to do with me?" Li Hanyi's expression was calm, not even looking at Baili Dongjun.

"Junior Sister, you are the Second City Lord of Snow Moon City, how can you say such a thing?" Baili Dongjun looked at Li Hanyi in surprise.

"Although I am the Second City Lord, I cannot stay in Snow Moon City forever."

"No one can stop what he wants to do, and I won't stop him."

"Moreover, he never proactively provokes others. If someone makes the first move, they must bear the consequences of their actions." Li Hanyi's tone was calm and cold.

Baili Dongjun opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.

He also knew that things could no longer be changed.

He came here only to confirm one thing.

Now it seems that things are indeed as he thought; Northern Li is about to change.

"Doesn't he worry about such chaos in the world?" Baili Dongjun finally asked about his concern.

"Chaos in the world? Senior Brother, in your opinion, how is Northern Li now?" Li Hanyi did not answer, but instead asked a question.

This time, Baili Dongjun fell silent.

"Junior Sister, I know I can't stop him from doing what he wants, but I still hope you can persuade Prince Duan to try his best not to affect the people of Northern Li."

"The common people are innocent. The consequences caused by these high-ranking officials vying for power should not be borne by the common people." Baili Dongjun took a deep breath and looked at his Junior Sister with a serious expression.

"As the Great City Lord, you should have some understanding of his character."

"He is a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and resentment. If the common people do not provoke him, he will not involve them."

"He is Prince Duan of Kingdom, and is deeply loved by the people in Kingdom."

"He knows even better that if war truly breaks out, regardless of victory or defeat, it is the common people who will suffer in the end."

"Therefore, this matter is only between him and Emperor Taian, and has nothing to do with the people of Northern Li." Li Hanyi stated the truth in a cold tone.

Baili Dongjun immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard his Junior Sister say this.

"In that case, I'm relieved."

"However, you still need to tell him that Emperor Taian has a Sword Guardian by his side, and his strength is not weak."

"If Prince Duan makes a move against Emperor Taian, that Sword Guardian will definitely intervene."

"These past years, Emperor Taian dared to be so arrogant and conceited, even disregarding Master back then, precisely because of the existence of this Sword Guardian." Baili Dongjun cautioned.

"If Senior Brother wants to warn him, go yourself. Why tell me?" Li Hanyi's expression was cold as she glanced sideways at Baili Dongjun.

"Uh, aren't you two..."

"There is nothing between us. If you speak nonsense again, even if you are the Senior Brother, I will make you realize the power of the sword in my hand." Li Hanyi said coldly.

"Alright, alright, I didn't say anything, I'm leaving." Baili Dongjun said and turned to walk away.

When his Junior Sister gets angry, no one can stop her.

In the past, he could still suppress her a bit, but that's not possible now.

His Junior Sister's strength has improved too quickly over the past year, and he is no longer her match.

Can't provoke her, can't provoke her. Anyway, he has already said what he needed to say.

Moreover, he believes that his Junior Sister is definitely not such a cold and Ruthless person and would not abandon the people of Snow Moon City.

The phenomenon of Ye Xiaoying's Breakthrough lasted for the time it takes an incense stick to burn before disappearing. After feeling the disappearance of that murderous aura, everyone around felt the pressure on their bodies ease.

Such a huge commotion quickly spread throughout Snow Moon City, and this news also reached Emperor Taian's ears at the fastest speed.

Upon hearing the report from his subordinates, Emperor Taian's Face turned gloomy.

"Is the news reliable? Wasn't Ye Xiaoying supposed to have no chance of Breaking through to the Carefree Heaven Realm? What's going on? Who can tell me the reason for this?" Emperor Taian roared.

"Your Majesty, according to the scout's report, this matter seems to be related to Duan Zhengchun, the Reliant King of Dali."

"What did you say? Say it again, King Kaoshan, Duan Zhengchun?" Emperor Taian stood up abruptly, his aura exploding, a Carefree Heaven Realm Qi bursting forth.

The people below him were sweating profusely and trembling all over from the pressure.

"Replying, replying to Your Majesty, the news says that Ye Xiaoying's Breakthrough is related to Duan Zhengchun."

"So, Duan Zhengchun is in Snow Moon City right now, is that correct?" Emperor Taian's Face became even uglier.

Duan Zhengchun came to Snow Moon City, and he only just found out. What were his intelligence networks doing?

Such a big matter, and he, the Emperor, was the last to know.

These people truly deserve to die, deserve to die.

"Yes, yes, according to intelligence, Duan Zhengchun is, is in General Ye Xiaoying's mansion."

"Heh... hehe... good, good, very good. Ye Xiaoying, I didn't expect you to collude with Duan Zhengchun, this rebel. Very good. Before, someone said that you, Ye Xiaoying, had malicious intentions."

"I didn't believe it then, but now it seems Ye Xiaoying really does have malicious intentions." Emperor Taian's Face was so gloomy it could drip water.

Emperor Taian's reaction had already scared the person below him, making him tremble all over, his clothes soaked with cold sweat.

He knew that he was probably doomed.

It had been many years since the Emperor had been so angry. Not since Eternal Life Li left back then had there been such a reaction.

With such a great outburst of anger today, he probably wouldn't make it out alive.

"Very good. Issue an imperial decree, order Ye Xiaoying to come see Us." Emperor Taian's eyes flickered with intense killing intent.

"Yes..."

The subordinate felt a sudden relief in his heart upon hearing this command.

At least he wouldn't die for now.

After the person left, Emperor Taian could no longer control the anger in his heart and immediately began to smash things. Everything in the room was shattered by him.
