"Check Shui Yuehan's residence!" The crown prince was fuming.
"Crown Prince, there's no one in Shui Yuehan's residence. Everything inside has not been touched. He probably hasn't returned."
"Search everywhere. You must find him!"
"Yes!"
"Go to Plethora Gem Tower and see if Fu Guansan has returned!"
"Yes!"
At the same time, Plethora Gem Tower was also in a state of chaos.
A prison break was no small matter. The Board of Justice had taken control of Plethora Gem Tower at once and everyone was being interrogated.
It was one thing for the Board of Justice and the Residence of Crown Prince not to provoke the three noble families, but a mere Plethora Gem Tower, a martial world gang, dared to break out of prison?
Under the circumstances where no one else could be provoked, who else could they target but you?
If they really did nothing, where would the authority of the Board of Justice be?
With a single order, Plethora Gem Tower was sealed and all personnel were arrested and locked up in the Board of Justice's prison!
Everything had happened in a single morning.
…
"Pfft! Cough, cough, cough … "
When Old Marshal Qiu Jianhan found out about these things, it was dawn. He had been drinking a bowl of plain water, but he spat it out upon hearing the news. Not only that, he choked on the water, coughing so hard that the sun and moon seemed to dim.
"Cough, cough, cough …"
"Cough, cough, cough …"
"Cough, cough … Cough, cough …"
Everyone in the Residence of Marshal stared at the old marshal with their mouths agape.
What was going on?
They had never seen him coughing so badly in the morning.
Sir Wang, who had come to report the matter, was even more bewildered.
The Board of Justice's matter was not trivial, but it was not to the extent of making you lose your composure all the time.
"Cough, cough …" The old marshal finally stopped coughing, his face flushed red from holding it in. I knew it! Those fellows were up to no good!
Shui Yuehan broke out of prison himself? Your father wouldn't believe it even if you beat him to death!
He must have been taken away secretly … I knew that those fellows had a plan, but this is too much. Using the country's machinery to be your hired thugs?
"Understood …" The old marshal said sanctimoniously, "It's just a few martial world people breaking out of prison. At most, someone from the Residence of Crown Prince is involved. What's there to be concerned about? You actually came to tell me about such a trivial matter. Is there a need to … "
The corner of Mr. Wang's mouth twitched.
Such a small matter? Wasn't it that bad?
You coughed so hard just now, and you think I can't tell? His mouth, however, said, "Yes, this matter really can't be put on the table. However, this matter involves the Crown Prince's Manor and the Myriad Treasure Tower in the end. Some turbulence is unavoidable. We should still be more cautious. "
"Yes, this is a problem!"
Old Marshal Qiu stroked his beard and said, "Tell the Board of Punishments to let them go when it's about time … It's not a good thing to implicate them unnecessarily. The Myriad Treasure Tower was ultimately one of the top ten organizations of the Profound Sky Continent's pugilistic world … The face that should be given still had to be preserved. What Fu Guanshan did alone, other people might not know about it, right? "
Mr. Wang repeatedly agreed and retreated. However, he thought to himself, "Old Qiu is … weird … Since when did he care about the reputation of the people in the martial world …"
The Ministry of Justice was in chaos!
The crown prince's residence was in chaos!
The entire Tiantang City was in chaos.
The three young masters were also in a state of chaos.
Even Yun Yang's side was a mess.
Fu Guanshan had been captured but after he was captured, Yun Yang realized that something was amiss.
Yun Yang had only used a few tricks and this Keeper Fu was already hovering between life and death, almost spilling the beans of his ancestors.
"What happened to your cultivation base?"
Yun Yang was dumbfounded, not daring to believe his own judgment.
"Cultivated to the fifth peak …" Fu Guanshan wanted to cry but had no tears. "Crippled …"
Yun Yang twitched. "But I clearly saw you fight in Cirrus House …"
"That's the power of the Dream Retrieval Pill …" Fu Guanshan was trembling from the pain. "When I need to fight someone, I can consume a Dream Retrieval Pill and my previous cultivation base will return temporarily … However, it can only last for an hour … After the time limit, my body will be slightly weaker but it's fine …"
Dream Retrieval Pill …
Yun Yang had heard of this pill before. It was said that a master of alchemy had misunderstood a person and chased him for thousands of miles to cripple the person's cultivation base. However, he later realized that he had wronged a good person.
Filled with remorse, he searched for spiritual medicine to the ends of the earth and finally refined the Dream Retrieval Pill. However, this pill was only suitable for people whose cultivation base was below the seventh peak of mystical Qi.
Experts who had surpassed the seventh peak could only unleash the power of the seventh peak even if they consumed the Dream Retrieval Pill when their cultivation base was crippled. This was the limit.
In Tianxuan Continent, the Dream Retrieval Pill had another resounding name – Regret Medicine!
Yun Yang looked up at the sky, speechless.
If I had known that you were constantly consuming regret medicine, why would I have used the Immortals' Odium?
What a waste of my Immortals' Odium. Using the precious Immortals' Odium to deal with a piece of trash … I've really set a precedent for this item to be used against the opposite party!
"Why did you go to Cirrus House?"
"I … I like Lady Zuiyue …"
"I want to hear the truth!"
"This is the truth. I really like Lady Zuiyue!"
Yun Yang was speechless.
"You're still matchmaking for someone if you like her?"
"I'm not being asked to do so. Amicable business brings wealth. Young Master Qiu returned empty-handed, of course, I have to seize the opportunity …"
Yun Yang really wanted to slap the fellow in front of him to death when he asked this.
Fortunately, he asked another question, "Someone asked you to do this? Qiu Yunsan asked you? Are you qualified to be asked to do so by Young Master Qiu? "
"It's not Qiu Yunsan." Fu Guansan's face was twitching from the pain. "It's Keeper Mi who asked me to help Young Master Qiu. How can I afford to offend Keeper Mi?"
"Although I'm not willing to be a matchmaker, Keeper Mi promised me that when Young Master Qiu succeeds, he'll think of a way for me to …"
A murderous aura rose on Yun Yang's face. He forcefully restrained himself and asked, "Who is this Shopkeeper Mi?"
Fu Guansan watched Yun Yang's expression carefully and said, "Keeper Mi … is Mi Kongqun!"
"Mi Kongqun!"
Yun Yang's expression changed.
He had thought of all the keepers with the surname Mi in Tiantang City, but he had missed this person!
The palace's inner keeper!
He was in charge of the entire palace's purchasing. From a certain perspective, he was the Minister of Imperial Household! Someone close to His Majesty the Emperor!
No wonder everyone was so respectful. It was him.
What a high position!
While Yun Yang was enlightened, there was also a deep sense of worry.
"Keeper Mi! No wonder he's called Keeper Mi. So he's in charge of the inner keeper … "
"From Eunuch Wu who tried to assassinate me two nights ago to this Keeper Mi … how much has the palace been infiltrated?"
Yun Yang frowned.
The ninth and eleventh day of the first lunar month that Wu Wenyuan had told him about had not been found out. The advisor to the crown prince that Chu Tianlang had told him about, was the advisor to the crown prince referring to Shui Yuehan or someone else?
As for the general, he could only confirm that Tie Zheng, one of the Empire of Yutang's five generals, was he referring to Shui Yuehan or someone else? Or perhaps, someone with a lower status?
It could not be any higher because there were only two more people above the military.
Qiu Jianhan and Leng Daoyin.
Saber and sword duo, Yutang's national marshals!
These two people could not possibly be from the Four Seasons Tower.
There were at least two suspicious people in the palace – Eunuch Wu and Keeper Mi. Was there anyone else?
Yun Yang's action this time was to get rid of Fu Guansan and Shui Yuehan directly with the help of the authorities. What would they do next?
Who was the mysterious Supreme Lord Spring Frost who had mastered such a sinister Blood Curse of Verbal Spirit?
It looked like he had broken through the other party's setup in this round.
But had he really done so? Would they still go after Cirrus House?
Yun Yang was deep in thought, his face reflecting an elegant yet mysterious color under the dim light.
Looking at this face, Fu Guansan suddenly had a strange feeling that this face didn't seem to belong to the human world, but rather … the netherworld! As he stared at it, he actually shuddered.
"Young master … eunuch … son …" Fu Guansan was trembling. "I've told you everything I know. Can – can you let me go … I won't dare to do it again …"
Yun Yang lifted his head slowly, his cold gaze staring at Fu Guansan's face without emotion.
Fu Guansan grew increasingly afraid as he said, "I – I – I … this lowly one is only the keeper of Plethora Gem Tower, my authority is very limited … Young master, young master … my brother-in-law – my brother-in-law is the manager of Plethora Gem Tower here … Please, please have mercy … There will be repayment in the future …"
Yun Yang looked at him quietly with his head tilted.
A few strands of hair hung down, floating on the side of his face. In the darkness, there was a sense of desolation and melancholy.
Swoosh!
A flash of saber light appeared abruptly.
Fu Guansan did not have the time to beg for mercy as his head fell to the ground.
It was a clean cut!
Yun Yang got up slowly and walked out of the door. Long after he had left the secret chamber, Fu Guansan's headless body fell slowly to the ground behind him.
His head rolled on the ground and was now facing upwards.
There was no fear left on his face, only endless, indescribable doubt.
Even at the moment of his death, he couldn't understand why the other party didn't kill him. He had revealed his background, revealed his brother-in-law's extraordinary identity, revealed his group, and said that he would definitely be repaid … But suddenly, he had been stabbed!
A single slash!
Why was this so?
…
Yun Yang went back to his bedroom. It had now become a place that Yun Yang enjoyed so much that he forgot to return.
His own bedroom.
However, there were too many of them here now!
Wind, Flame, Blood, and Thunder – other than Supreme Wind's will which had been destroyed by him, the rest, including his own, were all here.
There were also his brothers' cultivation methods.
Mystical Wind Pearl, Spark Pearl, Fog Pearl, Blood Pearl, Divine Thunder Pearl.
Looking at the five pearls that were filled with mysterious powers, Yun Yang sat down quietly and filled a goblet with wine. He smiled and said, "Brothers, do you know that our enemy is unimaginably powerful? As I investigate further, I realize that the Four Seasons Tower's immensity is actually immeasurable. I wonder if any of you have thought of this? "
