Chen Xuanâs angry voice echoed throughout the great hall.
Watching him with a face full of rage, Ku Ming also felt uncertain.
He had just carefully observed him, and it didnât seem like he was pretending.
"Hehe, Prince Xuan, donât be angry. These are just rumors. Your Highness surely believes that Prince Xuan wouldnât do such a thing. Iâm here not for this matter but just asked in passing."
At this moment, Ku Ming even comforted him.
"Thatâs good. Even if I had the guts of a dragon, I wouldnât dare do such a thing. Please make sure to tell Your Highness, Brother Ku, that I absolutely did not do this."
Chen Xuan also âbreathed a sigh of relief,â and the anger on his face gradually disappeared.
He then slowly sat down.
And asked again, "Then what is the reason Your Highness sent Brother Ku this time?"
"The Burial Ground, Prince Xuan should know it?"
"I know!"
"Your Highness said that if Prince Xuan is willing, he can provide a quota to enter together with him, for mutual support. This time, itâs different from the past, very dangerous!"
"This matter!"
Chen Xuan slowly spoke, but he showed a difficult expression.
Then he apologized to Ku Ming, "Please convey my thanks to Your Highness, Brother Ku. However, I have already agreed with Prince Qin Ying beforehand. Otherwise, an invitation from Your Highness would be an honor for me, and I would definitely agree."
"I see. Thatâs indeed a pity."
Ku Ming lamented.
At this moment, Shi Jian also brought two cups of tea, carefully placed them on the table beside the chair, bowed slightly, and then withdrew.
"Come, Brother Ku, have a taste. This is the best tea from my Mansion, though it surely canât compare with that of the Imperial City."
Chen Xuan warmly greeted him and then lifted his own cup to take the first sip.
"Then I wonât stand on ceremony, Brother Ku said."
He also lifted his cup, took a large sip, "Good tea, even in the Imperial City, it would be considered top quality."
Ku Ming couldnât help but praise.
He was someone who appreciated fine tea and wine, and this kind of tea, even in the Imperial City, was the finest of the finest.
"Thatâs good, as long as Brother Ku likes it!"
Chen Xuan laughed heartily.
The two of them then entered a leisurely chat mode.
About half an hour later, Ku Ming felt it was time, so he stood up and said, "Itâs getting late, I have to return to the Imperial City to report, so I bid farewell."
"Then...I wonât keep Brother Ku, safe journey!"
Chen Xuan escorted him out of Prince Xuanâs Mansion, and only after his figure disappeared into the horizon did he return inside.
He touched his stiff face.
"Damn, pretending to smile isnât easy either, my face is stiff."
...
Ku Ming returned to the Eldest Princeâs Mansion and recounted the details of their meeting.
He then stood aside.
Qin Tiandao furrowed his brows slightly, and after a long time, he looked up at him and asked, "Do you think what he said is true or false?"
"His expressions, those didnât seem fake, and there was no disturbance in his heart."
Ku Ming didnât answer directly but gave his assessment.
"Hmm!"
Qin Tiandao nodded, "You can go now."
"Yes!"
Ku Ming nodded slightly, then left.
At this moment, Qin Tiandao looked at Mr. Wu and asked, "What do you think, sir?"
"Ku Ming has always been cautious in his dealings, and his judgment is rarely wrong. If even he got fooled, then this Prince Xuan is quite fearsome."
"Not good for you!"
Mr. Wu slowly spoke, his expression a little solemn.
Such a person entering the Burial Ground would be an immense threat.
Hearing this, Qin Tiandao also nodded in deep agreement.
Indeed, if itâs truly as he said, then... itâs truly a huge problem for him.
Especially since he is connected to Qin Ying.
Although the Imperial Sister and he have a good relationship, donât forget, she has a biological brother... Qin Hong.
Over the years, this Imperial Brotherâs power has grown stronger and stronger.
In the Royal Family, although my father is now in his prime, that day is bound to come.
So itâs necessary to be prepared, otherwise... when that time comes, one wouldnât even know how they died!
Living in the Royal Family means walking on thin ice, and any misstep has unimaginable consequences.
"I should go see Elder Zhan!"
"See if there is any news from the Three Judicial Departments, and finally... a trip to the Star Hall might be necessary!"
Qin Tiandao quickly made a decision in his heart.
"Indeed! That would be more secure."
Mr. Wu nodded.
...
At the entrance to the Qin Emperor Sacred Land in the Great Yu Imperial Palace.
The recent events concerning Chen Xuan were relayed into the Sacred Land through the Array by General Long.
This was what Qin Ying had instructed him when she entered the Sacred Land.
Inside the Sacred Land, Qin Ying slowly opened her eyes.
Her red lips parted slightly, and she gradually exhaled a breath of turbid air.
"Such audacity is growing."
"To have killed so many people."
With her understanding of Chen Xuan, there was no doubt in her mind that he was responsible for this.
However, as she spoke, the corners of her mouth turned up, showing no intention of blaming Chen Xuan.
"But... has he grown so strong?"
A trace of astonishment flashed through her eyes.
Even though she had already awakened part of the Qin Emperorâs bloodline, she was only at the fourth level of the Dao Realm now.
"What a demon."
Qin Ying smiled in admiration.
"Send someone to keep an eye on the Eldest Imperial Brotherâs side, and also on the Fourth Imperial Brotherâs side. Also, visit the teacher and ask him to take care more."
"Yes, Your Highness."
General Long immediately responded and then left.
"How many will survive the Burial Ground this time?"
Qin Ying sighed after speaking and slowly closed her eyes.
