Because she has always remained hidden, and with Zhu Zhuqing's current strength and Spiritual Power, if she wanted to hide, no one in the entire Douluo Continent could find her.

So Zhu Zhuqing swaggered through the densely monitored area.

Upon entering the Duke Nether's Mansion, Zhu Zhuqing discovered that the situation Duke Nether's Mansion was even worse.

Not only were all the servants replaced, but the new ones were all guys with a lot of Soul Power, ranging from Level 30 to level 60.

Even Zhu Zhuqing, who was monitoring from the outside, discovered three Soul Douluo.

"Have we been discovered?"

Zhu Zhuqing is not stupid. Although she stirred up trouble in the Douluo Continent, it was all done in the Heaven Dou Empire. However, the Star Luo Empire has never given up on the idea of attacking Heaven Dou.

Naturally, many people tried to gather information.

Furthermore, given that the Duke Nether's cultivation level rapidly broke through with her help, and that the Duke Nether secretly collected powerful and rare Soul Beast, anyone who isn't an idiot can basically deduce something from this.

But the White Tiger Great Emperor is no fool; his senses are very sharp.

Although it is uncertain whether the Zhu Zhuqing active on the mainland is the same Zhu Zhuqing, the Third Miss of the Duke Nether's Mansion.

However, there must be some connection between the two.

In response, the White Tiger Great Emperor took action.

He had no choice but to take action; even if it meant using the entire nation's resources, he had to eliminate Zhu Zhuqing as an obstacle.

If Zhu Zhuqing is truly the same Zhu Zhuqing, once she grows up, the White Tiger Great Emperor dares not gamble on whether Zhu Zhuqing will covet the throne.

Moreover, the White Tiger Clan has been riding on the Nether Clan for so many years. Who dares to guarantee that the Nether Clan won't use this as an excuse to ride on their necks in return?

The rule of the White Tiger Clan cannot be allowed to fall into ruin under his watch.

However, since Zhu Zhuqing did not appear, he dared not do anything to the Duke Nether's Mansion, so he could only imprison him and wait for Zhu Zhuqing to come to him on her own.

As soon as Zhu Zhuqing comes to the door, the 100,000 troops gathered in Star Luo City can be mobilized at any moment. They will drown Zhu Zhuqing even if it means drowning him.

Never underestimate the allure of a position to others.

In the Duke Nether's bedroom, Zhu Wushi sat expressionlessly, while the Duchess, who had been with him day and night, had long since disappeared.

He was reported by the Duchess.

After all, they had shared a bed for so many years, and no matter how secretive he was, some clues were still discovered.

The Duchess, true to her White Tiger Clan, remained unmoved after all these years. Instead, she immediately reported the Duke Nether after discovering even the slightest clue.

Duke Nether expressed his understanding of the White Tiger Great Emperor's actions.

After all, he did have his eye on that position after learning about Zhu Zhuqing's strength.

However, despite his understanding, Duke Nether still harbored resentment towards White Tiger Great Emperor after being imprisoned.

However, he was not worried about his safety.

As long as Zhu Zhuqing doesn't show up, he won't be in danger.

If Zhu Zhuqing were to appear, he would be even less afraid.

If Zhu Zhuqing were to appear, it would only prove that she is no longer afraid of the Star Luo Empire.

Duke Nether has analyzed Zhu Zhuqing's character quite thoroughly; she is someone who knows how to be patient and tolerant.

He's also ruthless to himself.

Someone like her would never put herself in danger.

Furthermore, he has now broken through to level 90. Given his understanding of Zhu Zhuqing, it won't be long before Zhu Zhuqing returns to Star Luo City. At that time, even without his reminder, she will realize that something is wrong.

From this perspective, Zhu Zhuqing wouldn't encounter any danger, and naturally, he certainly wouldn't either.

He will only become safer over time.

Because the Zhu Family was one of the White Tiger Great Emperor's backup plans to control Zhu Zhuqing.

As for why the White Tiger Great Emperor was so certain?

That just means that the location is too tempting.

Even if it is eventually proven that Zhu Zhuqing has no connection with the Nether Clan?

A verbal apology will suffice; would the Duke Nether dare to make any demands?

I wouldn't dare.

"Our Duke Nether looks very relaxed."

Zhu Zhuqing's figure slowly appeared in front of Zhu Wushi.

"They're here."

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing suddenly appear, Zhu Wushi was not flustered at all. Instead, his serious face finally showed a smile.

Then he immediately got up and poured tea for Zhu Zhuqing.

"How did Dai Yutian realize something was wrong?"

Zhu Zhuqing took a small sip of the now-cold tea.

"It was also my carelessness. After all, you... my mother was with me with the intention of monitoring me. My strength improved too quickly, and the secret of that secret room was also discovered."

Zhu Wushi shook his head with a wry smile; the feeling of being reported by one's bedmate was truly unpleasant.

What does Dai Yutian mean?

Zhu Zhuqing gently tapped the table with her fingertips.

"He summoned me to the palace a few days ago and asked me some questions about you. I pretended to be confused and changed the subject, but he definitely didn't believe me."

And that's how the mansion ended up like it is now.

Zhu Wushi recalled the night three days ago.

The White Tiger Great Emperor summoned him to the palace that very night.

"His Your Majesty!"

Zhu Wushi met Dai Yutian in a garden and immediately knelt down upon seeing him.

Dai Yutian sat at a casual stone table, reading a letter, ignoring Zhu Wushi who was kneeling.

"I heard that a powerful woman named Zhu Zhuqing has appeared in the Heaven Dou Empire. She not only defeated Dugu Bo but also destroyed the Clear Sky Sect. I remember your third daughter is named Zhu Zhuqing, right?"

Dai Yutian was also incredulous when he saw this information; he hadn't even connected the two things at all.

"That's right, but my daughter was young and unruly and ran away from home for several years and has not returned."

Besides, my daughter's natural talent is just so-so, only level five Innate Soul Power. Perhaps we're just sharing the same name.

Zhu Wushi prostrated himself, his head bowed low.

"It's true that she has poor innate talent, but that doesn't necessarily mean she hasn't found a way to overcome it."

The White Tiger Great Emperor discovered that Zhu Zhuqing had obtained the Herbal Encyclopedia from the Breaking Clan.

The White Tiger Great Emperor also discovered the immortal Immortal Grade Herbs among them.

Why would Zhu Zhuqing exchange the First Prince's Token for this for no reason?

Dai Yutian was 90% certain that Zhu Zhuqing had found a treasure trove, but she didn't recognize the herbs, which is why the scene of borrowing the First Prince's Token occurred.

Zhu Wushi immediately thought of the Grade Nine-Rank Purple Ganoderma that Zhu Zhuqing had given him. If it had such a good effect on him, wouldn't it have been even better for Zhu Zhuqing?

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Although the Duke Nether had guessed something, he couldn't say it and could only pretend to be ignorant.

"My dear minister, you've been cultivating quite diligently lately. Are you close to breaking through level ninety?"

Dai Yutian stroked his beard and asked with a forced smile.

"Thanks to Your Majesty, I am already at level 89. If I can break through to level 90, then I will be able to serve Your Majesty even better."

Zhu Wushi so frightened that he almost broke out in a cold sweat and immediately pledged his loyalty.

"Oh, that's very good. But I've heard that you've been searching for your daughter. I wonder if you've made any progress?"

Although Dai Yutian didn't believe that Zhu Zhuqing was really Zhu Zhuqing, he had to be careful if the two were connected.

"Your Majesty, I have been searching in secret for the past few years, but I have not made any progress. I beg Your Majesty to see the truth."

"Is that so? Then you can go down first."

Dai Yutian's eyes darted around, and he only turned his gaze away after Zhu Wushi left.

When Zhu Wushi returned to the Duke Nether's Mansion, he found that the entire Duke's Mansion was sealed off. During his immersive cultivation over the past few days, he broke through to level ninety.
