Chapter 1430: Chapter 1429: Tyrant Blade’s Escape and the Cover-Up at the Prince’s Mansion

“What? Didn’t you say earlier that Tyrant Blade was hidden deeply?” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

“Previously, Chaos Palace was intent on preventing my investigation,” Bian Wenzhou said with a bitter smile.

“Now that the contest is over, they seem to be deliberately showing goodwill towards you.

They even led me to the location of Tyrant Blade.”

“Showing goodwill now? It’s too late,” Xu Zimei sneered.

“Let’s deal with Tyrant Blade first, and as for other matters, we’ll talk later.”

“Tyrant Blade is inside a mansion within the city.

I’ll take you there,” Bian Wenzhou quickly said.

Xu Zimei had won first place in the contest.

It’s not an exaggeration to say he is the top figure among the younger generation in the Chaos Fire Realm now.

Even Bian Wenzhou had to flatter and curry favor with him.

After all, whether it’s future potential or current strength, Xu Zimei had a significant investment qualification.

“Since I promised you earlier, I won’t go back on my word.”

Xu Zimei said, “I will give the spot for the Origin Land of the Fire Tribe to your Fireloathing City.

You can arrange for someone to go at that time.”

Upon hearing this, Bian Wenzhou was not as happy as he imagined, but rather a bit troubled.

“It’s not that simple,” Bian Wenzhou said.

“Why?”

“Originally, I intended to do as you said.

But this time, the Origin Land of Ancestor of Fire is of great significance, and not counting the already extinguished Lihuo Realm,

even among the Six Domains, it’s a battle of open and secret struggles.”

Bian Wenzhou said helplessly.

“According to Chaos Palace’s meaning, the spot cannot be casually replaced.

Whoever wins must participate.”

Xu Zimei was taken aback, shook his head, and said, “I have no interest in the Origin Land of Ancestor of Fire.

Besides, I may not have time to go.”

“I’ve thought about it for a long time and wanted to discuss it with Young Master Xu,” Bian Wenzhou said.

“If Young Master Xu has time, please come to Sun Palace as soon as possible to participate in Origin Land.

If not, I will discuss with Chaos Palace to send someone else to replace you.”

Bian Wenzhou said so, and after considering for a moment, Xu Zimei finally nodded.

There’s always a margin for everything, maybe it will be useful in the future.

During their conversation, the two already walked out of the bustling main street.

They came to a secluded road.

After passing through a few alleys, they finally stopped in front of a mansion.

“This is it.

I’ve had people watching the surroundings all this time.

He can’t escape,” Bian Wenzhou said.

Someone nearby had already kicked the mansion door open.

The crowd entered the mansion, which had a large area with rock gardens, pavilions, running water—a scene of leisure.

“What are you doing?” At this moment, a group of people came out from within the mansion.

The middle-aged man leading them scolded, “Why are you breaking into my mansion?”

“Bring out Tyrant Blade,” Bian Wenzhou said indifferently.

“Who is Tyrant Blade? I don’t know.

This is my home,” the middle-aged man’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he snorted coldly.

But the crowd wasn’t in the mood to waste words with him.

Seeing Bian Wenzhou’s large hand grab, he suppressed the middle-aged man to the ground instantly.

“What are you doing?

How dare you commit violence in Chaos Fire Realm,” the middle-aged man shouted with all his might.

“I will report you to Chaos Palace.”

“Still being stubborn at this time,” Bian Wenzhou waved his right hand and looked at the group he brought.

He instructed, “Search, don’t miss a single corner.”

The group behind him instantly scattered like wolves and tigers, coming from all directions.

The entire mansion was plunged into chaos.

However, the more they searched, the worse Bian Wenzhou’s expression became.

Because they hadn’t even glimpsed the shadow of Tyrant Blade.

“What happened?” A bad thought arose in his mind.

Finally, after everyone had finished searching, they still hadn’t found Tyrant Blade.

“Could he have escaped?” Xu Zimei asked.

“Impossible, my people guard the four directions.

Even a fly couldn’t escape,” Bian Wenzhou stated confidently.

Then he seemed to think of something.

His face changed slightly, and he shouted, “The Earthly Path, how could I not have thought of that.

Search again, see if there are any paths leading out of the mansion.”

The group began searching once more.

Meanwhile, Xu Zimei surveyed the surroundings, his figure arriving at the water pool in front of the mansion courtyard.

The water flowed gently along the rock garden.

The sound of the water echoed constantly.

With a wave of Xu Zimei’s great palm, there was a thunderous “boom”.

The boundless Spiritual Energy erupted everywhere, and a Heaven-covering Great Palm overturned the water pool.

Below the water pool, a water channel suddenly appeared.

“There really is a tunnel,” Bian Wenzhou said coldly.

The crowd uncovered the water channel, revealing a bottomless tunnel leading to an unknown destination.

Bian Wenzhou sent people in to investigate.

Soon, there was news.

This tunnel led to a spot outside the Chaos Fire Realm beneath a large tree.

Because the tunnel at the other end was connected to the tree’s roots, it was usually impossible to discover.

“This time, it’s my incompetence.”

Bian Wenzhou apologized, “Young Master Xu, give me a few more days.

I will make every effort to search.”

“To my knowledge, during the contest’s start these days,

the Chaos Fire Realm has been in a state of lockdown.

Those outside couldn’t enter, and those inside couldn’t leave, right?” Xu Zimei asked.

“Young Master Xu’s meaning is that Tyrant Blade is still within Chaos Fire Realm,

just hidden?” Bian Wenzhou quickly asked.

But soon his eyes grew dim.

“But Chaos Fire Realm is so vast, how difficult it is to find one person.

Unless he tries to assassinate you again like before, we can’t find him.

Otherwise, if he truly wants to hide, it’s tough for us to find him.”

“Finding someone can be done using other means,” Xu Zimei said with a smile.

His gaze circled the entire mansion.

Above his head, the Traceless Compass appeared, floating in the void.

His gaze was like a torch, and Spiritual Energy swirled around him.

Since Tyrant Blade lived here, it’s possible to trace his path and find his escape route.

The Compass spun continuously.

After a while, a thread-like green line emerged from the Compass.

“Follow the green line,” Xu Zimei said.

The crowd followed the green line, which first led them to the base of that big tree.

This indicated that Tyrant Blade had initially escaped from here.

The green line continued to wind.

The crowd arrived at a prominent place on the main street.

Ultimately, the green line stopped in front of an imposing mansion.

Two large characters, “Royal Mansion,” shone brightly, etched in the center of the plaque under the sunlight.

The mansion’s door was bronze-colored.

The guards standing on both sides were majestic, with sabers hanging from their waists and a proud demeanor.

“Why did it stop here,” Bian Wenzhou said helplessly.

“How could Tyrant Blade hide in the Royal Mansion?”

“Why?” Xu Zimei asked.

“Do you know this mansion?”

“I fear there’s no one in the entire Chaos Fire Realm who doesn’t know this mansion,” Bian Wenzhou said with a bitter smile.

“Now things are complicated.”

“What’s so troublesome about it?” Xu Zimei asked.
