The more the onlookers listened, the weirder their expressions became.
Indeed, if the fact that he had just entered the palace aside, it seemed that this Young Master Yun was only known as an idler or a popinjay. What was there to discuss with him? It was indeed intriguing and suspicious!
There could only be one reason for a person of high status to discuss with a popinjay – the power behind the popinjay.
Han Wufei's expression changed gradually. He realized that if he continued to linger on this topic, Yun Yang might end up saying that His Highness the crown prince was plotting a rebellion.
"Young Master Yun, why do you have to quibble like this? This concerns His Highness the crown prince's reputation. Don't make a mistake!" Han Wufei hollered coldly.
"Don't make a mistake? Is there a new threat? May I ask, if His Highness the crown prince had not sent you to find me right after I came out of the palace, how would I have quibbled? " Yun Yang smirked. "Now that you've come to me and threatened me, forcing me to submit and forbidding me to speak, I'll be quibbling as long as I open my mouth to refute. Is that right? Yes, as long as I defend myself, I'll tarnish the crown prince's reputation. I can't refute this, it's too reasonable! "
Han Wufei was seething with anger as he gritted his teeth and said, "A bite from a thief goes deep into the bone."
Yun Yang was shocked. "Now I've become a thief? Even if I did bite you, may I ask, if you didn't come to me, how would I let you go deep into the bone? "
Han Wufei wanted to curse, "His Highness the crown prince's sincerity …"
Yun Yang continued to be surprised. "Threatening me with sincerity? Such sincerity is truly sincere! "
Han Wufei could not take it anymore. "Shut up! Yun Yang, if you say another word, this reputed one will … "
"What will this reputed one do to me?" Yun Yang cut him off angrily. "Do you dare kill me?"
Han Wufei's anger surged. "Do you think I don't dare?"
His tone was chilling, it was obvious that his killing intent had been triggered.
Yun Yang chuckled. "You're threatening me again! This time, you're threatening me with death. If I don't submit, it looks like my life will be in danger! "
The topic had gone one round and was back to the threat.
Han Wufei's head was spinning with rage. "When did I ever threaten you? Don't spout nonsense. This concerns the Crown Prince's reputation. Don't make a mistake! "
"Shh …"
There were boos all around.
Many looked at Han Wufei like they were looking at an idiot.
You were so loud just now that you wanted to kill him, and you actually said, "When did I ever threaten you?"
Are you sure you care about the Crown Prince's reputation? Your actions are clearly tarnishing the Crown Prince's reputation!
Holy shit! This person was truly of the highest quality!
I think he's the one who shouldn't be mistaken!
Han Wufei was an experienced man as well. He reacted quickly and blurted out, "But I didn't threaten you just now!"
Yun Yang did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Then tell me, what do you really want?"
"I …"
Han Wufei said angrily, "His Highness the Crown Prince asked me to invite you …"
Yun Yang was exasperated. "Huh? Is this how your family invites people? "
The surrounding people all had strange looks in their eyes: His Highness the Crown Prince actually sent such a person to invite people, this is really …
Was he going to … invite someone, or … offend someone?
Han Wufei's mind was a mess.
Yun Yang looked at him sympathetically. "Go back. First, I won't go. Second, you're not qualified to invite me like this with your status. I, Yun Yang, am the descendant of Marquis of Heavenly Clouds after all. How can I be ordered around like this? Third, you've been threatening me since the beginning. I don't know if it's your intention or the Crown Prince's. If it's your intention, ask His Highness the Crown Prince to send someone else to invite me. If it's His Highness the Crown Prince's intention, how would I dare go? "
"Also … Marquis Yun's family has never been involved in the imperial court's affairs. In conclusion, please go back. "
Yun Yang smiled faintly and turned to leave.
Han Wufei yelled angrily, "Yun Yang!"
However, Yun Yang did not even turn his head back as he walked further away.
The expressions on the faces of the people around them were extremely interesting.
He really didn't expect to see such a big show today!
It should be a drama of one party oppressing the other. It was a classic!
Yun Yang's footsteps were unusually light as he strolled home.
From the beginning to the end, he had never thought of going against the crown prince. Han Wufei had said it very well – the crown prince was the monarch while the rest were all subjects. If it was not necessary, Yun Yang did not want to be enemies with the country's heir. Once he did so, the commotion would be huge and could possibly shake the nation's foundation. This was not something the Nine Supremes would like to see and it was even more impossible for him to do so given the Empire of Yutang's current situation.
In spite of this, Yun Yang's current action was to make the situation even more confusing. Since the crown prince had sent Han Wufei over, he could use him as an example.
Those who had heard the drama in front of the palace were not ordinary people. Yun Yang's actions would definitely draw everyone's attention to the crown prince.
At least in the short term, His Highness would have to think twice before doing anything.
This was only the start of a whirlpool.
That night, Yun Yang turned into a breeze and entered the third prince's residence.
He tossed in a set of fake documents that he had prepared beforehand.
"The crown prince is plotting a rebellion, the evidence is conclusive. The following is … "
Very soon, the third prince's residence was heavily guarded for the entire night. All the strategists went in and out, plotting and discussing.
Then, Yun Yang went to the fourth prince's residence, placing a set of confidential documents on the table in the fourth prince's study.
"Ol 'third and ol' fifth have already worked together, plotting to get rid of His Highness first before working together to deal with the crown prince. The evidence is inside … "
Yun Yang did not let the fifth prince's residence go either. The fifth prince's residence had caught on fire in the latter half of the night, but Yun Yang had snuck in and set it ablaze.
The fire was intense, the crimson light shooting into the sky, almost dyeing half of the capital city's night sky red.
After that, the Residence of Grand Commandant, Residence of Grand Tutor, Residence of King Jing, and other residences had all received different things. A few of them had been set ablaze as well.
The entire capital city was in chaos as people screamed and horses neighed.
Finally, Yun Yang made a trip to the Residence of He.
Since he had gone to all the other places, this place was even more so.
Old He, He Hanqing, was meditating in the secret chamber. Around him were piles of mystical crystals that seemed to have been set up in a mystical formation, hoping to extract energy from the mystical crystals to heal his wounds.
Old He had yet to recover from his injuries and could no longer use high-level mystical Qi to heal himself, so he could only heal himself with this method.
As someone who liked to play tricks, he was also wary of others plotting against him. He was used to putting himself in the most dangerous position to think from another's point of view; naturally, he dared not cultivate to heal himself outside! If he was ambushed, even if the other party could not attack him, it would only disrupt his healing process or ignite his anger, or even move his mystical Qi. It would all lead to a terrifying and dangerous outcome.
However, his careful action of not healing himself outside had made things more convenient for Yun Yang.
Yun Yang turned into a gentle breeze in the Residence of He, drifting around in search of something. However, Yun Yang was surprised to find that there was nothing illegal in Old He's residence, no matter where he looked.
To be more precise, there wasn't even the slightest bit of sensitivity.
Even his study room had nothing other than a few paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall. Not only was there no book, there was not even his own handwriting!
Yun Yang searched through all the buildings in the Residence of He in disbelief. There was nothing, no belongings, no treasures, and none of the above.
He searched the ground to no avail. There was also the secret chamber underground. However, even though Yun Yang had turned into the wind and his cultivation base had improved tremendously, he still dared not enter Old He's secret chamber.
This was because there were eight vaguely powerful auras surrounding He Hanqing's secret chamber, hovering and hidden.
Each of these eight auras was no weaker than Mi Kongqun's!
There were even a few of them that were much stronger than Mi Kongqun's.
Although he knew that He Hanqing's secret was underground, Yun Yang dared not go down.
How could Yun Yang be willing to leave just like that? He was infuriated. "Your father is missing your bastard nest! If I can't kill the old bastard, I'll kill the young bastard and his underlings first! "
Therefore, in the middle of the night, Old He's residence was abruptly engulfed in flames without any warning.
This fire was different from the previous ones.
Almost as soon as it started to burn, the entire residence was already on fire.
The flames soared a thousand feet into the sky!
When the flames rose, it was already proven that this fire could not be extinguished.
Unless it was burnt to ashes!
He Hanqing was recuperating in the secret chamber when the experts on guard suddenly felt something and one of them swiftly drifted out.
Then, he returned with an ugly expression. "The Residence of He is on fire!"
Two men were left to guard while the other six went out together.
When they went out, they saw the raging fire outside. A ball of flame seemed to have a life of its own as it rolled back and forth in the Residence of He excitedly. Wherever it went, there was a blaze!
A few of them charged forward with a shout, dispersing the flame with a single strike. However, there was nothing left after the flame had dispersed. A gust of wind blew past, leaving no trace behind.
Then, a strong wind howled in the air.
The wind fueled the fire and even the ground of the Residence of He was on fire!
A few of them entered the secret chamber with an ugly expression.
The fire on the ground could no longer be contained!
After a while, when the fire was almost extinguished, they forcefully extinguished it with mystical Qi. However, the entire Residence of He had already turned into ashes! None of the family members in the residence had escaped! All of them had been burnt to ashes!
At this moment, a name suddenly rose in the hearts of all the guards.
Supreme Flame!
Could it be that the fire elf was not dead?
In the formation, He Hanqing's expression changed. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and spat out two mouthfuls of blood.
In the formation, hundreds of mystical crystals turned into powder with a crack.
He Hanqing's face was pale.
Just now, his emotions were unstable and he almost went berserk. Not only did his internal injuries not lessen, they worsened instead! He Hanqing's family members were still on the ground …
At this moment, they were all buried in the fire!
Not a single one was left!
"Supreme Flame!" He Hanqing spat out two words weakly. "This old man and you … will never be able to coexist!"
The eight of them looked at each other.
Supreme Flame was really not dead?
Besides, you almost killed all of his brothers. It goes without saying that you will never be able to coexist.
…
The careful search almost exhausted Yun Yang to the point of collapsing.
In spite of this, he was filled with admiration. It was the first time in his life that he had seen a bad guy like He Hanqing who left no traces behind!
It was too clean!
Everything, everything … was impeccably tidied up!
Yun Yang was still puzzled on his way back.
