However, the Fourth Prince, King Qian, had actually sent someone to invite Situ Ming to King Qian's estate.
If Situ Ming went, it would not be good news for him if news of this spread out.
The Situ Clan supporting the Second Prince was the decision made by the Old Ancestor of Situ Clan. If one dared to disobey the Old Ancestor's order, there was only one outcome waiting for them — to be expelled from the Situ Clan!
"Please help me tell His Highness King Qian that I appreciate his kindness."
Situ Ming said to the middle-aged man from King Qian's estate.
"The Fourth Imperial Highness King Qian has long expected Second Master Ming to reject him. Apart from inviting you over, he also asked me to tell you that Ye Feng is waiting for you in King Qian's estate."
The middle-aged man said.
Ye Feng!
Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, Situ Ming's eyes widened immediately.
Even Situ Zhuo, Situ Zhong, and the Situ Clan's elder's expressions changed slightly.
Naturally, they were familiar with the name Ye Feng.
Ye Feng was the Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect.
Today, they had just received news that the Supreme Elder of Dark Nether Sect had been killed, and the Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect was nowhere to be found. The Dark Nether Sect only existed in name.
Now that someone from King Qian's estate had come, he even said Ye Feng was in King Qian's estate.
'Don't tell me the Dark Nether Sect has offended King Qian's estate?'
The moment Situ Ming thought of this, his heartbeat quickened. He looked at the middle-aged man in panic. "Sir, please tell His Highness King Qian that although I, Situ Ming, have some ties with the Dark Nether Sect, I have nothing to do with what the Dark Nether Sect has done!"
At this moment, all Situ Ming wanted to do was to clear his name.
"Second Master Ming, you can explain yourself if you want to. Forgive me for not being able to help you."
The middle-aged man said indifferently, "Moreover, the Fourth Imperial Highness King Qian asked me to tell you that if you're unwilling to follow me to King Qian's estate, you'll have to bear the consequences!"
Bear the consequences!
The moment the middle-aged man's words left his mouth, Situ Ming and the others' expressions turned grave.
Situ Ming looked at Situ Zhong.
"Go."
Situ Zhong nodded at Situ Ming and said through Voice Transmission, "At this point, you don't have a choice. King Qian isn't a merciful person."
Situ Ming secretly sucked in a breath of cold air.
He knew very well that he had no other choice. If he offended King Qian, he would be in deep trouble.
Although the prince whom the Situ Clan supported was not inferior to King Qian in any aspect, he might not necessarily fall out with King Qian just to protect him.
"Milord, I'll go with you."
In the end, Situ Ming gave in.
"Let's go."
The middle-aged man said nonchalantly. Although he was only at the Imminent Saint Stage, since he was working for King Qian, he was not afraid at all even if he was facing a Saint Stage powerhouse like Situ Ming.
A fox borrowing the tiger's might, a dog relying on its master's power, nothing more than this.
Situ Ming followed the middle-aged man and left the Situ Clan's estate. They went straight to the Windfall Nation's Imperial Palace and King Qian's estate.
When Situ Ming entered King Qian's estate, a figure hiding in the dark outside King Qian's estate turned around and left as well. He went to another spacious mansion in the Windfall Nation's Imperial Palace. It was the mansion of King Rong, the Second Imperial Highness of the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family.
"Situ Ming from Situ Clan went to Old Fourth's place?"
King Rong was an elegant middle-aged man with a medium build who was dressed like a scholar. When he heard the report from the informant he had planted near King Qian's estate, he could not help but frown.
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
A young man dressed in black behind King Rong asked indifferently as he looked at the informant.
The young man's appearance was ordinary, but his eyes were extremely sharp. When he looked at the informant, it seemed as though there were two piercing rays in his eyes, causing the informant to feel shocked. He did not dare to look him in the eye.
"I'm sure I'm not mistaken."
The informant took a deep breath before he mustered up his courage and replied.
"You, make a trip to Situ Clan and ask Situ Hao what's going on! Tell the Situ Clan to give King Rong a satisfactory explanation within three days, "the young man replied.
The young man nodded.
"Yes."
The informant left and made his way to the Situ Clan.
When the Clan Leader of Situ Clan, Situ Hao, learned about this, horror dawned on his face. "Situ Ming openly went to King Qian's estate? What's he trying to do? "
"Clan Leader of Situ Clan, I've already passed the message to you. Please give the Second Imperial Highness a satisfactory explanation within three days!"
The informant from King Rong's estate was extremely humble in King Rong's estate, but he was extremely domineering in the Situ Clan.
In King Rong's estate, he was merely a lackey.
However, in the Situ Clan, he was a messenger from King Rong's estate.
After the informant from King Rong's estate left, Situ Hao's expression was still extremely grave. His brows were tightly knitted together.
At this moment, Situ Ming finally met the Fourth Prince of the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family, King Qian in King Qian's estate. "Situ Ming greets Your Highness King Qian!"
Situ Ming bowed at King Qian.
"There's no need for formalities, Second Master Ming.
Please take a seat, "King Qian said with a smile as he gestured for Situ Ming to sit.
However, Situ Ming did not dare to sit.
"What? Are you not going to give me face, Second Master Ming? "
The smile on King Qian's face faded slightly as he asked with a solemn expression.
"No! No! "
Situ Ming was shocked and immediately sat down. However, he felt as though he was sitting on pins and needles, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Second Master Ming, I heard you're not happy in the Situ Clan?"
King Qian asked with a smile as he looked at Situ Ming.
"You must be joking, Your Highness King Qian. As the Second Master of Situ Clan, how could I not be happy in the Situ Clan?"
Situ Ming forced a smile.
Even if he was unhappy in the Situ Clan, he would not say it out loud, let alone in front of King Qian.
This was because, to a certain extent, the Situ Clan and King Qian were on opposite sides.
"It seems like Second Master Ming still has some reservations about me …"
King Qian shook his head before he raised his hands and clapped them.
At this moment, a person walked into the Main Hall. It was someone Situ Ming was extremely familiar with.
When Situ Ming saw the person, he instantly stood up. His eyes gleamed coldly as he asked through Voice Transmission, "Ye Feng, why are you here? Don't you know our Situ Clan and King Qian's estate are on opposite sides? "
"Second Master, naturally, I know the Situ Clan and King Qian's estate are on opposite sides."
Ye Feng did not reply through Voice Transmission.
Situ Ming's expression turned grave immediately as he asked through Voice Transmission again, "Ye Feng, what are you trying to do?"
"Second Master, I'm not trying to do anything. I just want you to understand the current situation. The Situ Clan no longer has room for you! What you need to do now is to leave the Situ Clan with your men and seek refuge with the Fourth Imperial Highness! "
