Heaven Dou City.
Inside the study of Second Prince Xue Yu's residence.
Xue Yu sat in the study with his head tilted back, staring blankly at the ceiling. His eyes were lifeless, and his entire person looked utterly dispirited. A man stood before him, appearing to be in his thirties. He wore black from head to toe, and even his pupils were pure black. Looking into his eyes felt like gazing into a bottomless abyss.
He was Yin Xuan, whom Xue Yu had sent to attend the Soul Master Exchange Meet.
Before Xue Yu, Yin Xuan was extremely respectful.
"My apologies, Your Highness. This subordinate failed to complete the task you assigned. I never expected the Soul Master Exchange Meet to turn out like that."
The failure of the Soul Master Exchange Meet had been entirely beyond his expectations. No matter what, an event hosted by Spirit Hall should not have been that dreadful, should it? Yet that was the truth—Spirit Hall had completely botched it, preventing him from crossing hands with Di Hong.
Xue Yu shook his head. "This has nothing to do with you. We'll discuss it later."
"The current situation is that my elder brother's influence is growing by the day, and he has gained the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. My room to survive is nearly gone. What do you think we should do?"
Yin Xuan shook his head. He had no solution either. Who could have imagined that the Second Prince, who had still been able to contend with Crown Prince Xue Ye on equal footing last year, would lose all room to survive in such a short time?
When had this begun? After that battle with Star Luo, or after the old Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect
