Kindling the Flames of Hostility
Shisui used the Feather Powder surrounding his body to confuse others, relying solely on his physical strength to quickly leap over the houses in Chongming City.
Because he was so close to the Dragon Palace, he could always sense the faint, oppressive aura emanating from the direction of the outer gate of the Dragon Palace.
This made him extremely wary.
The oppressive aura he felt was comparable to, or even slightly stronger than, the Heaven Realm pressure he had sensed in Qiongfang City.
Deeper inside the Dragon Palace, in the depths of the trench, Shisui couldn't even perceive it.
The gap was so vast that even though he knew there must be a powerful figure among them, his intuition seemed to have failed him.
Therefore, Shisui became exceptionally cautious here, rarely showing himself.
After leaving the Chancellor's Residence, he quickly moved away from the Dragon Palace and found the two spies who were carrying some spatial fluctuations in the blink of an eye.
From Shisui's perspective, following behind them were several Sea Race soldiers who appeared to be ordinary civilians.
These Sea Race soldiers' primary job is not to stalk or follow.
Therefore, no matter how careful they were, their straight posture and sharp eyes gave them away.
Li Nai'an and Bai Ye also noticed the Sea Race soldiers who had followed them.
They did not deliberately ignore the ordinary soldiers who were poor actors.
Instead, thanks to his superb acting skills, he managed to shake off some of the soldiers while leaving one or two behind who were well hidden.
The two women, dressed in eye-catching gowns, moved with an air of mystery that convinced the Sea Race soldiers that they were heading towards a rendezvous point.
The cat-and-mouse chase continued for a while, with Li Nai'an and Bai Ye leading a string of soldiers in circles.
Shisui naturally wouldn't waste his energy strolling around with these people.
The Radiant Feathers drifted along with the current, occasionally shifting and adjusting their position on their own.
At some point, like an inconspicuous speck of dust, it penetrated the protective layer of Li Nai'an's spatial equipment and gently adhered to the hem of her clothes.
Perhaps she placed too much faith in the products from her Laboratory, or perhaps the skirt of her dress was simply too voluminous.
Li Nai'an didn't even notice the small crystalline feather that had touched her clothes.
Therefore, with her attention focused on the Sea Race, she never doubted the strength of the protective layer.
After all, she herself was a "product" of the Laboratory.
Lying in the shadows, Shisui listened to the two spies' hushed conversation.
"They've been led around for a while now. When they change shifts later, you can take the opportunity to slip away."
"First, let's confirm whether the hidden strongholds of those royal heirs mentioned in the previous intelligence are true."
Upon hearing Li Nai'an's command, Bai Ye, using the spatial shield as cover, "Whoosh!" ripped open the hem of her dress.
The gown was torn along a pre-defined length, instantly transforming into a fluffy short skirt.
Then, the outer layer of puffy tulle skirt was peeled off.
Only the fitted black sporty cropped top and the matching skirt were retained.
The movements were fluid and graceful, showing that the performer was quite skilled.
While changing his clothes, Bai Ye replied, "Yes, Li Nai'an Rinne."
Whether it was the sound of Bai Ye talking to Li Nai'an or the noise of changing clothes, he didn't deliberately lower his voice; in fact, he seemed somewhat nonchalant.
Rather than saying she believed in the technology of the Demon Race, it would be more accurate to say that she simply didn't care about leaking secrets.
Shisui, who was in the distance, keenly noticed this.
"Lady Li Nai'an, this is a product of my innate talent; it can be used as a bomb!"
Before leaving, Bai Ye handed several palm-sized, rather soft-looking white feathers to Li Nai'an.
Li Nai'an nodded and accepted the feather.
She wasn't lacking in weapons, but she certainly didn't have any explosives to cause a major disturbance.
What is the blast radius?
"The area within which a single explosion can cause damage to the Earth Realm Fifth Realms can be consistently maintained at around ten meters."
After saying that, while Li Nai'an pretended to follow a passing Sea Race, Bai Ye quite naturally withdrew from the spatial shield.
After changing her outfit, she blended perfectly into the bustling crowd of shoppers.
She took out a baseball cap that had been folded under the hem of her dress, shook it, and put it on naturally.
Her short, white hair, past her ears, was completely hidden, and Bai Ye disappeared into the crowd.
She didn't know when she would realize that a Radiant Feathers was following her in Alternate Space.
Just after Bai Ye left Li Nai'an, Shisui clearly sensed the power fluctuations of the communication device being activated through the Radiant Feathers.
"Report, this is S00012. The Demon Race is preparing to target the Dragon Spirit Species as expected. Requesting confirmation of the 'ignition' time. Over."
"This is the temporary command post in Chongming City, S00012. Operations can commence in five minutes. Over."
"S00012 received."
Communication was lost, but Bai Ye maintained his usual gentle and harmless smile as he headed towards one of the princes' strongholds.
Five minutes later, she will report the situation at those strongholds to Li Nai'an, who is still dealing with the Sea Race.
She will do everything in her power to help Li Nai'an detonate these secret bases.
The Sea Race and the Demon Race must be enemies; only in this way can it serve the interests of her faction.
At the same time, inside the outer walls of the Dragon Palace, a figure dressed in a long, dark red robe swiftly emerged from the depths of the Dragon Palace.
If you get close to him, you'll instinctively feel that his aura is quite strange.
Even though the Psychic Energy fluctuations were completely suppressed, they still carried an unsettling feeling.
To gaze upon him is like gazing upon a monster that flashes by in the deep sea.
Seeking advantage and avoiding harm, staying away from danger, is the nature of living beings.
Hua Yixuan carefully circled the outer wall of the Dragon Palace, but found no way to escape.
He wasn't afraid of the Heaven Realm Second Realm guard inside the city walls, even though he might not be able to defeat him.
But if he wanted to kill the other person, it would only take him a little effort.
The reason he didn't force his way in was because there were some beings deep within the Dragon Palace that he couldn't afford to offend.
Also, because he obtained important intelligence for the Beastfolk.
"Lord Hua Yixuan, in five minutes, we will be causing chaos in Chongming City."
Receive.
Hua Yixuan silently answered in his mind, and then the faint communication sound ended, and the area near the outer wall remained silent.
He lay in wait, his red robes growing increasingly dark, completely enveloping him and burying him deep within the darkness.
Time passed second by second, until he counted to the 280th second.
"Bang--! bang--! bang--!"
Three loud bangs echoed from outside the Dragon Palace into the city walls, and then the entire Chongming City erupted in uncontrollable commotion.
The overwhelming pressure from the Heaven Realm beings surged forth, rushing towards the scene of the incident.
The opportunity has arrived!
Hua Yixuan's suppressed Psychic Energy exploded instantly.
Within five seconds, he reached the base of the wall, released his tentacles, burrowed into the ground, and disappeared.
The scene was as if nothing had happened, with only traces of renovation remaining on one plot of land.
