C1385

As the chaotic night slowly passed, the morning sun once again illuminated the land.

Even though most of the Imperial City's array formations had been dispelled, the damage caused by the battle between the Nirvana stage and the Nine Dragons Jade Wall was just too terrifying. The embroidery street and part of the Imperial City were also severely damaged, causing many of the Imperial City's cultivators to panic as they all left the city.

"Feng Chen, the Emperor wants to see you. Follow me to the palace quickly!"

"There's no need to be so polite, I'm here to find you to understand what happened last night!" Qi Chengtian's eyes, which were as deep as the sea, shot out beams of light. He looked deeply at Ye Chenfeng and said in a low voice.

"The killer who tried to assassinate me last night was the Phantom Shadow, and Prince Yu was implicated by me and died tragically at the hands of the killer!"

Ye Chenfeng told the story of how he was assassinated by the Phantom Shadow twice in detail.

"Feng Saint Master, what kind of enmity do you have with Enchanting Shadow? Let them assassinate you again and again!" Qi Chengtian thought for a while and asked in a low voice.

"I don't know why the phantom assassins tried to kill me, but I was just here when they assassinated me. This is definitely not normal!" Ye Chenfeng shook his head and voiced out his doubts.

"Wind Saint Master, you can't be suspecting that someone from our clan colluded with the Phantom Shadow to assassinate you, right?" Qi Chengtian's snow-white eyebrows slightly frowned as he understood the meaning behind Ye Chenfeng's words.

"No one knows where I've come from, but for Enchanting Shadow to be able to assassinate him in such a short period of time … I'm afraid this isn't a coincidence." Ye Chenfeng said, "Oh yeah, Your Majesty, didn't I catch a Phantom Shadow killer last night?"

"She's dead. We don't have any valuable information." Qi Chengtian shook his head.

"Dead!" Ye Chenfeng frowned slightly, "Did you catch the Nirvana Realm Supreme Elder, who was suspected to be the mastermind?"

"That person's strength is very terrifying. He is even a bit stronger than this old man. We were unable to catch him!" The old man slowly opened his eyes and spoke in a deep voice.

"Did Senior guess that person's identity from fighting with that person?" Ye Chenfeng asked.

"That person hid himself very well. We can't guess his real body, but we can be sure of one thing, that person has the Demonic Cultivating Technique and a True Devil Bloodline." The black-robed elder said.

"Grand Elder, are you really sure that person has the bloodline of a god or devil flowing through his veins?" Qi Chengtian's brows were tightly knitted together as he asked in a low voice.

The inheritance of the Eight Aversion Divine Kingdom was indeed a true demon. If the person who tried to assassinate Ye Chenfeng last night had the blood of a true devil flowing through his veins, Ye Chenfeng's guess would be confirmed.

"It shouldn't be fake!" The old man in black nodded, "However, this person is not from the Occult Imperial Family, but I can't figure out who he is."

"Feng Saint Master, before the competition, you should stay in my Eight Qi Palace. As for the person who tried to kill you last night, we'll do our best to investigate and give you an explanation!" Qi Chengtian pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Divine Emperor!"

What Ye Zichen wanted was to drag the Eight Qi Divine Kingdom down with him. With the Eight Qi Divine Kingdom and the Sky Hall to deal with the Phantom Shadow together, no matter how strong the Phantom Shadow was, it would definitely be destroyed.

"East one, bring the Wind Saint Master to the Jadeite Courtyard to rest!" Qi Chengtian ordered.

"Yes, royal father!" The Heaven's Son of the Eight Qi Kingdom, Qi Dong, who had just broken through to the Nirvana stage stood up and said, "Please …"

"Thank you for your trouble!"

As he looked at Qi Dongyi, who was wearing a Qilin robe and had a face as sharp as a knife, eyes like cold stars, and an air like a natural king, Ye Chen could smell a hint of danger from him.

It was obvious that Qi Dongyi was an absolute genius and had the ability to fight those above his level.

"Feng Saint Master, I truly admire you. To have the title of Saint Master at such a young age, if my sister can marry you, that would be her fortune!"

On the way to the Jadeite Courtyard, Qi Dongyi continuously greeted Ye Zichen. His voice was like the spring wind, causing people to have a good impression of him.

"Qi Tianzi is too kind." Ye Chenfeng smiled and said, "Son of Heaven, I want to see Han Yan. Can you help me arrange something?"

"This …"

Qi Dong hesitated.

"Don't worry, Son of Heaven, I just want to meet Han Yan and let him know my feelings for him. If he is willing to help me, then I will unconditionally support him and owe him a favor in the future."

Ye Zichen promised as he looked at Qi Dongyi, who was hesitating.

"It's true!"

Qi Dong's eyes lit up.

Compared to Li Tianyi, he was more optimistic about Ye Chenfeng. If he could get a favor from the youngest Saint Master in the central world, then he would definitely be able to get rich in return.

Furthermore, even though he was the Son of Heaven, there were too many people keeping an eye on him. He still had a long way to go before he became the Divine Emperor of Eight Qi. If Ye Chenfeng could support him, then with Ye Chenfeng's influence, his chances of winning would greatly increase.

"Alright, let's go back to the Jadeite Courtyard to rest first. I'll think of a way to bring Han Yan here tonight!" Qi Dong gritted his teeth and said, "But I can't spend the night here."

"The Son of Heaven is overthinking. I just want to meet Han Yan!" Ye Chenfeng smiled and said.

"That's good!"

Qi Dong nodded and smiled.

"Wind Saint Master, the Jadeite Courtyard is here. In the next few days, you should rest here and wait for my good news tonight." Qi Dong brought Ye Zichen to a beautiful courtyard filled with flowers and chased away all the maids.

"Alright, sorry for the trouble!"

Ye Zichen nodded, then walked into the garden with hundreds of flowers blooming and rich in spirit energy. He sat down cross-legged under a tall ancient tree in the courtyard and started to breathe in spirit energy to regulate his breathing.

While he was meditating, the Godeater's brain began to quickly deduce the situation. The extremely fast soul force radiation spread out in all directions, trying to penetrate the restrictions of the palace, exploring the real situation of the palace.

However, there were layers upon layers of restrictions surrounding the Eight Qi Palace. The eight Skysplit Towers were extremely powerful, so Ye Zichen tried to probe them a few times, but he could only give up. He stopped his mind devouring deductions and quietly waited for the arrival of Shui Hanyan.

As the night fell, the sky gradually darkened, but lights were on in the palace.

When it was almost midnight, Ye Zichen suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the outside of the Emerald Garden. He saw a girl with long hair, a long hair, and a slender figure, with a blue dress that fluttered in the night breeze, slowly walking over.

"I'm here, are you waiting for me?"

Ye Zichen stood up slowly and spoke gently as he watched the slightly excited Shui Hanyan step out of the dark night.
