PS: The 43rd Guild Master has been born. The Guild Master's soybean milk is flowing.
Lu Xiaomei quietly watched him go crazy and did not stop him.
After a while, seeing that the Crown Prince had calmed down, she spoke, "Your Highness, there's no point in regretting now. Think about the future, Yurong will become a strong opponent, we must be on our guard."
"Who's regretting!" The Crown Prince scoffed.
Lu Xiaomei did not refute and calmly said, "Head Chief Chu is here to demonstrate his power."
"Chu — Li —!" The Crown Prince slowly uttered these two words, emphasizing each word.
He completely calmed down and sat by the stone table, "It's alright, both of them are going to Goddess Attraction Mountain. Once there, they will focus on cultivation, they won't personally interfere with Xu An's matter."
"That's good," Lu Xiaomei nodded lightly.
The Crown Prince said, "The key now is still Xu An. If Xu An can return to the Titanium Temple, then we'll be taking drastic measures."
"The Titanium Temple can't affect anyone," Lu Xiaomei said.
"That might not be the case. The Crown Prince smiled. "Back then, I saved the life of a monk from the Titanium Temple. Now is the time to return the favor. As long as I can summon Xu An back to the Titanium Temple, no matter how powerful Lu Yurong is, she won't be able to do anything!"
"Will it work?" Lu Xiaomei asked.
The Crown Prince smiled, "This is my last move. I originally wanted to use it two years later to ensure a smooth succession, but now I have to use it, lest anything unexpected happens."
Once Xu An's momentum rises and the Titanium Temple calls him back, he may not obey.
Lu Xiaomei smiled, "Your Highness is better at chess, you can beat Yurong this time."
The Crown Prince shook his head and sighed, "Forcing me to use this move, Lu Yurong really deserves to die!"
It was precisely because he knew how powerful Lu Yurong was that he was so afraid. If he used this move now, it would only solve the immediate problem, but the consequences would not be small. Once Xu An returned to the temple and came out again, he might not be able to stop him.
He originally planned to use it on the eve of the coronation, not giving Xu An a chance to turn the tables. Once Xu An returns to the Titanium Temple, he would be able to take the throne without waiting for him.
If he used it now, the power of this move would be reduced by more than half.
Lu Xiaomei said, "Your Highness, you must not harbor such thoughts again. Isn't Head Steward Chu here to demonstrate his power? If you hurt Yurong, he will definitely seek revenge. He can sneak in without a sound, it's impossible to guard against him."
"Hmph!" The Crown Prince laughed coldly and said, "He won't dare to act recklessly. If he wants to kill me, Father will definitely make a move, and he will die without a doubt."
"Your Highness." Lu Xiaomei sighed. "Chu Li severely injured Tang Ye, the Fu Dynasty's Third Prince. I heard that he had rendered him impotent and crippled him completely. How could the Fu Dynasty's Emperor not do anything? Isn't he fine now?"
The Crown Prince frowned and nodded slowly. "Alright, then let's see whose schemes are better. As the Crown Prince, if I can't beat them, then I have nothing to say!"
When he thought of Chu Li's martial arts, he felt guilty.

Lu Yurong arrived at a magnificent mansion. The plaque in front of the mansion had the words "Lu Mansion" written on it. It was the outer courtyard of the Ren Public House in the Fairy's Capital. She rarely came here.
As soon as she entered, she was led to the backyard by Lu Yulou.
The backyard was brightly lit. Lu Yulou looked at her from head to toe. Judging from her expression, he was worried that she would cry.
Seeing that Lu Yurong's expression was calm, he secretly sighed in relief. He scoffed. "The Crown Prince must have something bad to say, right?"
"Of course." Lu Yurong smiled. "But he's also very angry. I think he won't be able to recover for a while."
"Sigh … Why did he have to do this!" Lu Yulou sighed. "We were originally a family, but it ended up like this. It's really regrettable. I really can't understand it."
"This is common in the Emperor's family," Lu Yurong said. "The Crown Prince's Residence is not our House of High Dukes."
"That's true." Lu Yulou nodded. "But I talked to Xu An for a long time. We got along very well. He's completely different from His Highness the Crown Prince. He's definitely worth relying on."
Lu Yurong nodded. "It was good when the Crown Prince was still King Jing. People change. We must be cautious."
"I don't believe that Xu An will harm us," Lu Yulou said.
Lu Yulou said, "It's not good to be too good. It'll be hard for him to ascend to the throne."
"He's a disciple of the Titanium Temple. Even if he doesn't become the Emperor, he can still stand in the Imperial Court and protect us." Lu Yulou smiled. "So, little sister, don't worry. Cultivate well at Goddess Attraction Mountain. This is a rare opportunity!"
"Yes." Lu Yurong nodded.
Lu Yulou smiled. "If Xu An can become the Emperor, then our House of High Dukes will be able to hold our heads high."
"It'll be difficult." Lu Yurong frowned. "I think the Crown Prince will soon have a backup plan. We must let Xu An deal with it carefully."
"Of course." Lu Yulou smiled. "But don't worry. If you and Chu Li work together, who can defeat you?"
Lu Yurong pursed her lips and smiled.
They had always been opponents. She gave Chu Li a lot of trouble, but Chu Li resolved it all. Until now, she did not gain any advantage. She did not expect that they would become partners and turn around to deal with the Crown Prince. The changes in the world were truly unexpected.
She would never have thought that it would come to this.
Lu Yulou said, "If the two of you combine your swords, you'll be invincible. You'll definitely help Xu An seize the throne."
"Big brother, don't be so careless. I still need to go to King An's Imperial Residence to talk to Second Lady Xiao. "Lu Yurong shook her head and stood up.
"What?" Lu Yulou was stunned.
He knew that Siao Shi and Siao Qi must hate Lu Yurong. Even if Chu Li helped her, it would be difficult to erase their hatred. If he went to see Siao Shi now, he would have to look at her face.
Lu Yurong said, "You have to thank her and apologize."
"… Alright." Lu Yulou said, "I'll go with you."
Lu Yurong saw his worried face and nodded with a smile.
When the two stepped into King An's Imperial Residence, Chu Li arrived at the Great Light Peak and the Divine Light Basilica.
Sun Mingyue's white robe and veil seemed to have never changed. She covered her body and face. Her clear eyes glanced at Chu Li and said, "Why are you here again!"
One would not visit a temple without a cause. Chu Li would not come if he had nothing to do.
Chu Li smiled. "I still need your help."
"What help?" Sun Mingyue scoffed. "Don't tell me you're going to team up against the Enlightened Master again?"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
"Which one?" Sun Mingyue asked.
Chu Li said, "Tang Haotian."
"Him?" Sun Mingyue's charming eyebrows furrowed. "You still want to fight him?"
When she thought of the previous situation, she felt a lingering fear. She really did not want to meet Tang Haotian again. They might not be able to escape. They were no match for Tang Haotian.
Chu Li said slowly, "I have to fight. … Are you going to help or not?"
"No!" Sun Mingyue scoffed.
Chu Li smiled and looked at her.
Sun Mingyue scoffed. "You want to kill Tang Ye this time? … You should've killed him last time to save yourself the trouble! "
