"Invite Princess Qian You and Arhat Hui Guang to a banquet? Governor, are you going to disobey the Emperor's orders again and create a life and death grudge between Daluo Heaven and the Pure Lands? "General Tie Xue asked worriedly.
"What? You're not willing?" Yi Yan turned to look at Tie Xue.
"No, as long as the Governor gives the order, I will do my best," Tie Xue immediately said.
"Haha, don't worry. I will take responsibility for disobeying the Emperor's orders. I don't have much time left anyway. If I can do something for His Majesty and Dayu, it'll be a little," Yi Yan said with a wry smile.
"No, Governor, that's not what I meant. I was just thinking that since we failed to kill Princess Qian You last time, it'll be even harder now. According to the reports from my subordinates, King Ju Lu has sent a large number of experts to protect Princess Qian You and the others. Even the 'One Qi Battle Formation' won't hurt them now. Moreover, Princess Qian You and the others will definitely pay more attention to their own safety. It's too difficult to kill Princess Qian You without leaving a trace of Dayu! "Tie Xue said worriedly.
"Haha, it's not too difficult. It's basically impossible," Yi Yan said with a wry smile.
"Eh? Governor? "Tie Xue asked doubtfully.
"Who said I'm going to deal with Princess Qian You?" Yi Yan smiled.
"Eh? Governor wants to deal with Arhat Hui Guang and Bodhisattva Great Mighty Celestial Dragon? But, but … "General Tie Xue said with disbelief.
Yi Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head. "His Majesty doesn't allow me to kill them, so let them do it themselves. Without His Majesty's full support, it'll be the same as last time. The slightest carelessness will cause the entire game to change. This will be the last time. I'll set up a death trap and do my best and leave the rest to fate! Let's see if the heavens will bless Dayu. "
"Yes, Governor." General Tie Xue nodded solemnly.
West Court Palace.
Qian You, Gu Lin, Shui Jing, Zhong Shan, Ah Da, and Ah Er. Everyone was looking at the invitation in Princess Qian You's hand.
"Qian You, what does the invitation say?" Gu asked.
"Mister Yi Yan invited us and Arhat Hui Guang to go to the Governor's Mansion for a banquet." Princess Qian You frowned.
"There are only a few days left. Could it be that Yi Yan is planning to set up another trap?" Mr. Shui Jing frowned and thought.
"Trap? Qian Qian Qian You? "
"Your highness, it was Yi Yan who set up the deadly situation in the Misty Lake." Shui Jing had to say it out loud.
"What? Him? He wants to kill us? "Gu Lin asked worriedly.
"It's not that he wants to kill us, it's that he's always wanted to kill us. However, judging from King Julu's attitude, Great Emperor Na Lan doesn't allow him to do anything. Therefore, he's always disobeying the emperor's orders," said Princess Qian You coldly.
Qian Qian You....
"What do you think, sir?" Princess Qian You looked at Zhong Shan again.
"From what I can see, Yi Yan's schemes are extremely deep and rarely seen. His sword is unconventional, and he's placed himself outside of the situation. Our safety shouldn't be a problem at the banquet at the Governor-General's Manor. What we should be worried about is behind the banquet, before and after the banquet," Zhong Shan said in a low voice.
"How do you know he won't harm us at the banquet?" Gu Lin shouted angrily.
Seeing Gu Lin's expression, Zhong Shan could only remain silent. I can't help it if you don't believe me.
"No, as Mr. Zhong Shan said, Yi Yan probably won't do anything to us during the banquet," Mr. Shui Jing said.
"You said the same? What if he really wants to harm us? I think we shouldn't go, "Gu Lin said.
"No, we still have our own objectives. We can't make things awkward right now. Since you're worried, let's invite King Ju Lu as well. I'm sure he'll be willing to come along," said Princess Qian You.
"Okay." Mr. Shui Jing nodded.
Three days later, in the afternoon, Yi Yan's floating island. Yi Yan brought Tie Xue and respectfully sent off a group of people who had finished their banquet.
"Thank you, Mr. Yi Yan, for your hospitality," said Princess Qian You.
"It's Yi Yan's honor to be able to invite the Princess to a banquet," Yi Yan said with a smile.
"No matter what, I had a great time at the Viceroy's residence today. I'll take my leave first," said Princess Qian You.
"Goodbye!" Yi Yan smiled faintly.
Princess Qian You then brought Gu Lin, Zhong Shan, Shui Jing, Ah Da, and Ah Er to Xi Yuan Palace.
Looking at Princess Qian You's departing figure, Yi Yan smiled coldly and walked to the other side.
On the other side was King Ju Lu and Arhat Hui Guang.
"Thank you, Mr. Yi Yan, for your hospitality," Arhat Hui Guang said with a smile.
"It's an honor for Arhat Hui Guang to come. Yi Yan is here. Thank you, Arhat Hui Guang, for coming," Yi Yan said with a smile.
"Hehe, the battle between my Bodhisattva and Great Emperor Nalan is imminent. Hui Guang won't stay any longer and will go back first," Arhat Hui Guang said with a smile.
"Goodbye!" Yi Yan said as he sent him off.
"How about this, I'll send Arhat Hui Guang off!" King Ju Lu said.
"Alright, thank you, Your Highness!" Yi Yan said with a smile.
"No problem, no problem," King Ju Lu said.
Then, standing on the floating island, Yi Yan sent off the second group of people.
He looked at the two figures in the distance. Yi Yan took a deep breath. He felt comfortable in his heart. Tie Xue stood behind Yi Yan and also watched the two groups of people leave.
In the distance, Princess Qian You was in the clouds.
"This Yi Yan is really generous. Dragon, a whole dragon. He cooked a whole dragon to receive them. So many people gathered around a table to choose their favorite dragon meat. This way of eating is really strange," Gu Lin said with a smile.
Zhong Shan stood behind Princess Qian You with a frown. However, there was no reaction from the red luan and pink lotus between his eyebrows, which meant that there was no danger at all. However, Zhong Shan had a bad premonition.
"What do the two of you think?" Princess Qian You asked.
"It's not normal. Something's not right!" Mister Shui Jing said as he waved his feather fan.
"What's not right?" Gu Lin had a strange look on his face. Why couldn't he see anything wrong?
"Prince, can you see that the only people attending this banquet are Yi Yan, Tie Xue, King Ju Lu, Arhat Hui Guang, and the six of us? Only ten people?" Mister Shui Jing frowned.
"What's wrong with only ten people?" Gu Lin asked curiously.
"Only ten people. There aren't even maids or attendants. Moreover, there's no one in the surrounding halls of the banquet hall. There's not a single person. We're the ones who are eating," Mister Shui Jing said.
"It's true that there are only ten of us. However, Yi Yan said some important secrets. I'm afraid that the maids and attendants will know!" Gu Lin said with a frown.
"Heh, secrets? Prince, why would the Governor of Great Yu tell us secrets? It's fine if we hear about them. They're completely useless. Therefore, Yi Yan's banquet today is very thought-provoking. I don't know what his purpose is, "Mister Shui Jing said with a frown.
"Mister, what do you think?" Shui Jing looked at Zhong Shan.
"It's indeed thought-provoking. There's one more thing. It's time, "Zhong Shan said after some thought.
"Time?" Princess Qian You frowned as if she had thought of something. Mister Shui Jing also had a look of understanding.
"What time?" Gu Lin frowned as he looked at Zhong Shan.
"The time we arrived, the time Arhat Hui Guang arrived, and the time King Ju Lu arrived. We arrived on time. Arhat Hui Guang was late by two incense sticks' worth of time, and King Ju Lu was late by an hour, "Zhong Shan said.
"That's right. King Ju Lu made an appointment with us, but he was late by an hour. He was brought here by Tie Xue, so Tie Xue should have delayed him by an hour. However, why was Arhat Hui Guang late by two incense sticks' worth of time? Arhat Hui Guang has never been late to a banquet before, "Mister Shui Jing said as he waved his feather fan.
"Arhat Hui Guang wasn't late. It was Yi Yan who sent the invitation. The time was different, so he made us deliberately arrive early by two incense sticks' worth of time," Princess Qian You suddenly said.
"That's right, he purposely asked us to arrive early, and then waited in the empty hall, while Yi Yan went out again to welcome the Brilliant Arhat. In the hall, there were only us and the cooking dragon." Mister Shui Jing frowned and said confusedly.
"I think we've been framed by Yi Yan!" Zhong Shan said with a bitter smile.
"That's right. I just hope Arhat Hui Guang can see it. I wonder how Yi Yan framed him with these two incense sticks' worth of time," Mister Shui Jing said with a bitter smile.
"Next, we'll stay in Xiyuan Palace. There are only a few days left. It's the most crucial time, so we can't leave," Princess Qian You said.
"Yes," everyone replied.

"King Ju Lu, you can send us off here. Bodhisattva doesn't want to be disturbed," Arhat Hui Guang said.
"Haha, alright. Farewell, Arhat Hui Guang." King Ju Lu led a group of people to send Arhat Hui Guang off.
"Farewell." Arhat Hui Guang turned around and flew away.
After Arhat Hui Guang left, King Ju Lu let out a long sigh.
"Your Highness, why did you send Arhat Hui Guang all the way here?" someone behind King Ju Lu asked.
"It's because I'm worried about the Viceroy. Princess Qian You and the others returned to Xiyuan Palace under the watchful eyes of everyone in the city, so they should be fine. As for Arhat Hui Guang, he's alone. Sigh! Forget it, Arhat Hui Guang has already returned. I've also completed His Majesty's instructions. Let's go back, "King Ju Lu said.
"Yes," the person behind King Ju Lu replied.
In a large hall in the Viceroy's Mansion.
Yi Yan stood with his hands behind his back, and Tie Xue stood behind him. They were looking at a circular dining table in the center of the hall. The dining table was illuminated by a large number of Night Pearls. There were some plates on the edge of the table, and in the center was a purple dragon about ten meters long.
However, this purple dragon had already been cooked, and the dragon meat had been removed from many parts of its body and eaten by others. Now, it was just a plate of leftovers.
However, even if it was just a plate of leftovers, the dragon still emitted a faint purple aura. It was abnormally rich in spiritual energy.
