Xu Jiujiu nodded as well.
Chen Ping was indeed right. Compared to dealing with Xu Tianran, who was armed to the teeth and was himself a Soul Douluo, targeting the Old Emperor was clearly the better choice.
Over the past few years, Xu Tianran had launched far too many purges to consolidate his authority as Crown Prince. Countless princes with real power hated him to the bone; this had been explicitly mentioned in the Original Work.
Although Chen Ping did not know exactly how much those powerful princes could accomplish, he knew at least one thing: Xu Tianran was quite wary of them. And now, Xu Tianran was only one step away from formally ascending the throne and becoming emperor.
There was no way those princes did not understand Xu Tianran's wolf-and-hyena-like, vindictive nature.
Thus, without this opportunity, they might only be able to lie low until Xu Tianran ascended the throne and thoroughly purged them. But if Xu Jiujiu and Wei Na gave them such an opportunity, they would definitely cause quite a stir. Chen Ping was certain of it.
In any case, this plan could not possibly be more idiotic than the Original Work, where more than a dozen Titled Douluo tried to assassinate Xu Tianran right in front of Long Xiaoyao. Chen Ping therefore felt no burden at all in offering this strategic suggestion.
"We need some time to formulate a plan. Tomorrow, we'll meet with that Head Senior Sister from your academy again and discuss the specific details."
The two women exchanged glances. They were clearly more inclined to use the intelligence and plan Chen Ping had provided. It was far safer than blindly forcing their way through.
How to shift the blame onto Xu Tianran was also an immensely technical matter. They had to devise
