"Is this information accurate?"
Chen Heng looked at the servant in front of him and asked softly.
Only when he got an accurate answer did he nod his head and let him rest.
Soon, four or so months had passed from the Kutu Royal City to Baron Kaisen's territory.
During these four months, Chen Heng had been busy in various places, and he had started to make progress in this area.
During this period of time, the Kutu Royal City was also quite lively.
According to Chen Heng's information channels, the Kutu Principality's Second Prince, Prince Grith, had also returned to the Kutu Royal City.
Unlike Olivia and Olivia, because Prince Grith's mother was a Princess of a foreign kingdom, he naturally had close relations with neighboring kingdoms.
A few years ago, when the King's mind had begun to fade, Prince Grith had left the Kutu Royal City and gone to the Olis Kingdom, where his mother was from.
With his mother's status and the power he had brought from the Kutu Royal City, Prince Grith had developed very well there. In fact, he even had many supporters within the Kutu Royal City.
After all, to the King, he was his only son.
For many traditional nobles, choosing a Prince to be their future King was much better than choosing a woman.
In the past, Prince Grith had always stayed in the Olis Kingdom and would return very quickly.
However, this time, he had returned, and he had stayed in the Kutu Royal City for two months.
During these two months, there seemed to be many disturbances within the Kutu Royal City.
As for the specifics, Chen Heng did not know, but he was able to deduce some things from some clues.
In just a few months, it was said that Princess Olivia and Prince Grith's followers had fought with each other in the Kutu Royal City, and even Knights had fought many times.
This was incredibly dangerous, and if an ordinary person was even slightly involved, they would lose their life.
However, now that Prince Grith had left, the fighting in the Kutu Royal City had most likely come to an end.
Sitting on a chair, Chen Heng thought to himself before silently making a decision.
After staying in the south for so long, he had done most of what he needed to do with Baron Kaisen.
Now that the trade had begun and the nearby rulers had accepted the agreement, there was not much use for Chen Heng staying here.
It was time to leave and return to the Kutu Royal City.
Although the south was warmer and less dangerous, it was not the center of the country.
Chen Heng could obtain benefits and support from here, but if he wanted to progress further, he would have to go to the Kutu Royal City.
As such, after settling down in Baron Kaisen's territory, Chen Heng once again headed towards the Kutu Royal City.
Soon, he returned to his residence in the Kutu Royal City.
As soon as he returned, he began to visit his old friends.
"Kaylin, you're finally back."
Looking at Chen Heng, a look of delight appeared on Carey's face and he hurriedly pulled him in.
"What have you been doing for so many months?"
He looked at Chen Heng and asked.
"What else could it be?"
Chen Heng smiled, "It's just a small matter; there's nothing much to say."
"You, on the other hand, look a lot more tired recently."
Chen Heng said softly as he looked at Carey.
Compared to a few months ago, Carey looked much more tired and had dark circles under his eyes. It seemed that he had not rested well in a long time.
"Don't mention it."
Carey gave a bitter smile and deeply sighed before explaining to Chen Heng.
"There were people hiding in your residence?"
Hearing Carey's explanation, Chen Heng frowned, "Those assassins from before?"
"That's right."
Carey gave a bitter smile and nodded, "It was those assassins from before. They seemed to be from the Olis Duchy and have been hiding around my residence, making it difficult for me to sleep."
"The Olis Duchy …"
Chen Heng frowned, "Do you know who sent them?"
Carey gave a bitter smile and did not reply.
Wanting to assassinate him and coming from the Olis Duchy, who else could it be?
It was most likely that Prince Grith.
Carey's family was one of Princess Olivia's staunchest supporters.
It would not be surprising for Prince Grith to send out assassins to deal a blow to Princess Olivia.
Following this, Carey continued to tell Chen Heng about what had happened recently.
"There really was a duel?"
Hearing this, Chen Heng felt quite surprised.
"Yes."
Carey nodded, "Both of them were Knights, and you know one of them: Knight Mader.
"Under the arrangement of Princess Olivia and His Highness Grith, he publicly dueled with another Knight …"
"And the result?"
Chen Heng looked up and asked.
Carey fell silent for a moment before saying, "The Knight sent out by Prince Grith was killed by Knight Mader, and Knight Mader also burned his life. One of his hands was cut off, and he can no longer move …
"If everything goes according to plan, even if he recovers, he will not be as powerful as before …"
Chen Heng fell silent.
Life Ignition was a state that Knights obtained after activating their Life Seed. If they used it too intensely, their bodies would be permanently destroyed.
From what Carey had said, the scene had been incredibly intense, and Mader Mader's Life Ignition had been incredibly terrifying, to the point that he would never be able to recover.
Just this alone was already very bad, not to mention that he had lost an arm.
Just as Carey had said, even if he could continue to fight, he would not be as powerful as before.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng could not help but inwardly sigh. At the same time, he felt quite glad about his decision.
The situation in the Kutu Royal City had been too terrifying; one Knight had died and one had been crippled.
If Chen Heng had stayed in the city, he would have been in danger.
From this, his decision to leave the Kutu Royal City and avoid the intense situation was undoubtedly the correct one.
"Where is Knight Mader now?"
