Imperial Capital
Moments later, when Ye Xuan, Naples, and the Purplish Warbler walked out of the inner cabin and arrived at the command cabin resting area on the top floor of the flagship fortress, Hongdou Liefeng, whom they hadn't seen for a few days, was already waiting there.
Seeing Ye Xuan arrive, Hongdou Liefeng nodded slightly. "Prince Xuan, in an hour, the fleet will directly dock at the Northern Region Star Dock on the Immortal Planet. At that time, a small ship will take us into the Immortal Planet. The Inspector intends to send you directly to the Federation's headquarters. Of course, I will also be accompanying you!"
When he said this, although Hongdou Liefeng's face was as expressionless as usual, there was clearly a hint of coldness. Even his tone was different from a few days ago. There was clearly no longer that respectful tone, and it was as cold as water!
It was clear that he was certain that Ye Xuan couldn't escape this time!
However, they hadn't even arrived at the Immortal Planet yet. Wasn't it a little too fast to change faces?
With this thought flashing through his mind, Ye Xuan turned around and exchanged glances with Naples and the Purplish Warbler. His expression darkened, and he said sarcastically, "Yo, it's only been a few days since we last met, and the Vice Commander's entire person has changed! You're practically flipping pages faster than a book. No wonder your face is as stiff as a corpse's. Your facial muscles and nerves will probably be injured by you every few days … What a sin! "
"Pfft!"
These words were truly sinister. How much force would it take to injure one's facial muscles just by changing faces? At the side, the Purplish Warbler pondered for a moment, and couldn't hold it in and laughed out loud on the spot.
Even Naples' eyes twitched a few times, and his neck turned red. He finally managed to hold back his laughter.
"Prince Xuan really knows how to joke. Excuse me for a moment! I'll come back when the fortress docks. "
After he finished speaking, Hong Dou Lie Feng turned around and left. Ye Xuan's derogatory words seemed to have caused even him to be unable to bear it. There was clearly a trace of anger in the depths of his eyes!
For nearly an hour after that, Ye Xuan was admiring the galactic void outside. His gaze passed through the large one-way transparent wall at the edge of the command cabin and into the depths of the void outside the ship.
Not long after, one big and nine small stars appeared in the void in front of them. Some were far, some were close, but they were all within their field of vision. They had finally arrived at the Undying Star of the Undying Dynasty!
Hongdou Liefeng, who had left not long ago, reappeared. He didn't pay attention to Ye Xuan and the other two. Not far away, he was giving orders to some of the gathered Overwatch Council officials.
Very quickly, the fleet sailed into a giant star dock outside the atmosphere of the Undying Star. When the main passageway to the command cabin on the top floor opened, Hongdou Liefeng walked over. "Prince Xuan, we should move. The Supervisor is still waiting."
Ye Xuan couldn't even be bothered to reply. He turned around and walked toward the exit of the passageway with Naples and the Purplish Warbler. Hongdou Liefeng followed closely behind with a few Overwatch Council officials.
On one side of the star dock outside the flagship fortress, a small battleship had long been prepared. After exiting the passageway, Hongdou Liefeng walked quickly to the front and led Ye Xuan and the other two into the small battleship. He then gave the order to set sail. They left the corner of the star dock and quickly passed through a public checkpoint in the star defense formation. They entered the Undying Star's atmosphere and headed straight for the vast plain where the Federation's headquarters was.
Almost at the same time that the blue fleet entered the star dock and returned to the port, the news that Prince Xuan had finally arrived on the Undying Star was quietly learned by many existences from all sides.
Among them included Ye Xuan's royal brothers in name, as well as most of the royal relatives.
However, no one in Imperial Concubine Mei's palace dared to reveal a single word. After all, the Prince Xuan who had returned this time was clearly a fake. Once Imperial Concubine Mei heard this news, she would probably collapse on the spot.
The fake had dared to come to their door. Was there any need to say the real thing?
Most likely, he had been cleaned up long ago.
For the members of the royal family who wanted to make things difficult for Ye Xuan, this was the best excuse. With this excuse as a reason, even if they gathered in groups and swarmed toward the Federation's headquarters to make a ruckus, they wouldn't have to worry about being punished afterward. No one would investigate.
Secure in the knowledge that they had backing, the five princes all gathered some of the younger members of the royal family and rushed toward the Federation's headquarters with a murderous aura.
In particular, the Great Prince Long Xiang gathered the most trusted aides and royal family members. There were over 100 of them. A large group of royal family warriors swarmed together like a swarm of bees. It was very eye-catching, but Long Xiang felt no pressure. The head of the Federation's Overwatch Council, Long Huai, had always been his main supporter. This time, they were going to the Overwatch Council, their own territory. There was no pressure no matter how they made a ruckus.
The reason the five princes were so concerned about this matter was not only because of Prince Xuan's recent rise in popularity, but also because today's opportunity was rare. They could take revenge and vent their anger. The more important reason was, to put it bluntly, the battle for the royal power.
Although Prince Xuan was useless and had died in the Outer Realms during the trial, his death still had some value. After all, he was a direct descendant of the Immortal Emperor's bloodline. He had been silently killed by an outsider. This matter had already damaged the royal family's reputation. The five princes all wanted to perform well in this matter. They could at least make a good impression of themselves in front of the Immortal Emperor and the royal family's resident elders.
In reality, other than the five princes, even among the 10 royal uncles, a few of them had brought trusted aides and were hurrying toward the Federation's headquarters.
At this time, the small shuttle carrying Ye Xuan had finally arrived at the vast plains. Without any delay, it plunged into the steel and majestic city of the Federation's headquarters.
…
In the depths of the Federation's Overwatch Council, on the eighth floor of a large, ancient-styled building, a certain figure was standing by the window. He was a tall and sturdy man in his 50s with a dignified aura. He had a square face and a short beard. He appeared very serious and cold.
This person was the head of the Overwatch Council, the cornerstone of the royal family of the Immortal Dynasty, and the supreme warrior whose cultivation had reached the 12th realm of the void realm — Long Huai.
"Have we finally arrived?"
Before the small shuttle Ye Xuan was in had entered the steel and majestic city of the Federation's headquarters, Long Huai's gaze had already locked onto the shuttle. It was not until it plunged into the majestic city that Long Huai, who had been expressionless until now, finally revealed a faint smile.
As he muttered to himself, he seemed to suddenly think of something. Unconsciously, he swept a glance in the direction of the Immortal Royal City. The smile on his face inexplicably became complicated and unpleasant. "At this moment, Old Eighth's heart is most likely in his throat. Unfortunately, his last glimmer of hope will soon be destroyed. When that time comes, what can he do even if he is unwilling?"
