In Heaven Dou City, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire was handling affairs in the Crown Prince's Mansion. Xue Ye's health was deteriorating, and Heaven Dou. Only important matters required Xue Ye's approval.

A figure appeared out of nowhere in the quiet room and bowed to Xue Qinghe, who was sitting by the window working.

"Young Master, Chrysanthemum Douluo has sent word that he and Ghost Douluo will be heading to the Star Dou Great Forest with the Pope in a few days to Soul Hunting."

"Okay, tell him that once I take power in the future, I will definitely not treat him unfairly."

Xue Qinghe, or rather Qian Renxue, looked at the Snake Lance Douluo with a puzzled expression when she saw that he had not left.

"Snake Lance Uncle, is there anything else?"

"Indeed, there is one. You asked me to investigate who spread the news that Moonlight Pavilion was affiliated with the Clear Sky Sect, and I have already made some progress."

"Oh~, who is it?"

"They are the largest Mercenary Organization in Heaven Dou City, and it seems that the Star Crown Sect is behind them."

"Star Crown Sect?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I understand. You can go now."

The figure of the Snake Lance disappeared from the room. Qian Renxue sat at the table, gazing at the Silver Moon in the sky, her mind filled with countless thoughts.

Her father, Qian Xunji, was crippled by Tang Hao and died tragically from severe injuries. Her mother, Bibi Dong, loathed her and even wanted to kill her. Qian Renxue only received care from her grandfather Qian Daoliu, from a young age.

Having infiltrated the Heaven Dou Empire since childhood, she cherishes her family members besides Bibi Dong. Some time ago, a rumor spread from an unknown source that Moonlight Pavilion was an external force of the Clear Sky Sect, dedicated to making money for the Clear Sky Sect and providing various resources.

The moment Qian Renxue heard the news, she thought of her father. From that moment on, she began to target Moonlight Pavilion with all her might. Yuexuan was a brothel that mainly catered to the nobility. Under the targeting of the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, it quickly declined.

However, after calming down and thinking about it, Qian Renxue realized that such secret information could not be known or spread by ordinary people. She ordered Snake Lance Douluo to investigate, but she did not expect to get such a result.

Qian Renxue recalled the Star Crown Sect that her grandfather had told her about when she was a child. The sect's foundation was definitely not bad, and the Sect Master was a Level 97 Super Douluo.

"What exactly are they trying to do? Do they also want to get involved in the conflicts on the mainland?"

Qian Renxue was slightly wary of the Star Crown Sect, but that was about it. With her grandfather around, she didn't think the Star Crown Sect could cause any trouble. Moreover, judging from the current situation, the Star Crown Sect seemed to be biased towards their Spirit Hall.

With the hatred of killing her father, Qian Renxue's resentment towards the Clear Sky Sect far exceeds that of other sects. As long as the Star Crown Sect messes with the Clear Sky Sect, they will be friends.

Just as she was pondering how to completely suppress and eliminate Moonlight Pavilion, a eunuch knocked on the door and entered.

"Your Highness, Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School has arrived with Bone Douluo and is currently waiting in the reception room."

"Alright, I'll go there now."

A hint of doubt flashed through Qian Renxue's mind. Although Ning Fengzhi was her teacher in name, it was just a cooperation between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. The two of them were not really that familiar with each other.

And what is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect doing here at this time? Could it be because of the Moonlight Pavilion's matter?

After having his servants tidy his clothes, Xue Qinghe re-entered the room and, surrounded by eunuchs, dismissed them all.

"Your Highness, it's been a long time. How have you been?"

"Thanks entirely to my teacher's guidance, I am now handling the affairs of the empire with increasing ease."

"That is truly a blessing for the empire. However, I have come here today to ask Your Highness a question: why are you targeting Moonlight Pavilion in this way?"

A sharp glint flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes as he looked at Xue Qinghe. How could he not know that the Clear Sky Sect was behind the Moonlight Pavilion? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had secretly contributed a lot to the Moonlight Pavilion's development in Heaven Dou City.

Now that the Spirit Hall is powerful, the major sects are already struggling to survive. He doesn't know why Xue Qinghe would target Moonlight Pavilion, but the Clear Sky Sect is the bridgehead against the Spirit Hall. They have completely declined. Does the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect have to bear the greatest pressure from the Spirit Hall?

Xue Qinghe was certain that Ning Fengzhi had indeed come because of this matter, but he had already come up with an excuse on his way to the reception room.

"Teacher, this Moonlight Pavilion has attracted too many nobles, and Xue Beng is a frequent visitor there. Their frequent contact is not a good thing for our Heaven Dou Empire. I have no choice but to do this."

"Is that so? Xue Beng are indeed a problem. How about we confine him to the manor?"

"Okay, as long as the teacher is willing to take action, I will immediately have someone stop."

Ning Fengzhi glanced at his disciple again before leading Bone Douluo out of the Crown Prince's Mansion. A Xue Beng was a plausible reason, but he still harbored some doubts.

Xue Beng and Prince Xue Xing behind him have far less influence in the Heaven Dou Empire than Xue Qinghe, and their public support is far inferior. To say they are wary of him is a bit far-fetched.

On the carriage, Bone Douluo looked at Ning Fengzhi, who was sitting opposite him with a furrowed brow, and wondered what was troubling him now that the Clear Sky Sect's predicament had been resolved.

"Feng Zhi, what's wrong? Wasn't the matter of the Clear Sky Sect resolved?"

"It's nothing, maybe I'm overthinking it. As long as Moonlight Pavilion is alright, that's all that matters."

Ning Fengzhi returned to his sect and began to focus on handling the affairs of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, while also spending time with his daughter, this Little Demoness was really giving him a headache.

"Dad, play with me."

"Daddy still has things to do. Ning Rongrong, why don't you go play with your friends?"

"Hmph, I'm ignoring you, I'm going to go play with Grandpa Bone."

Ning Fengzhi watched as Ning Rongrong jumped off his lap and skipped away, a helpless smile on his face.

At this moment, a disciple from the sect rushed in, but the news he delivered made his expression change instantly; things were in big trouble.

Sword Bone Douluo arrived in no time. When they saw Ning Fengzhi sitting in a chair with a gloomy expression, their hearts sank. They sat down and began to ask him questions.

"Feng Zhi, what happened? Has the Spirit Hall made another move?"

"No, something happened to the Moonlight Pavilion. The master of the Moonlight Pavilion, Tang Yuehua, is dead."

"What!!"

Ning Fengzhi looked in the direction of the Crown Prince's Mansion, a sense of sorrow welling up in his heart. Tang Yuehua hadn't died earlier or later, but at this critical juncture, she was suddenly poisoned and died in the Moonlight Pavilion. How could he not be suspicious?

However, he had no evidence, and even if it was the Crown Prince who did it, there was nothing he could do. But a seed of doubt was planted in his heart.

With the death of Tang Yuehua, the Clear Sky Sect's external force, Moonlight Pavilion, was completely destroyed and could no longer provide any assistance.
