Still Too Conservative

Another Tome...

Could this be the opportunity Qinglong had mentioned?

Lu Bei pondered in silence.

Prince Yan, Jiang Suxin, was the Gravekeeper Xuanwu. Above him was the Central Palace Yinglong, while that two-faced Qinglong drew the Gravekeeper's salary, held down the iron rice bowl of the Great Xia Holy Land, and obeyed Emperor Ji's orders.

Therefore, the opportunity Qinglong had mentioned couldn't be taken at face value. Throwing him into Zhaoqin and even specifically naming Tianzi Mountain, where the Imperial Observatory's headquarters was located, was most likely an attempt to turn him into a shit-stirrer.

Lu Bei was quite curious. What made Qinglong think he would side with the imperial family?

Wasn't Qinglong afraid that this would be an unnecessary move, lifting a rock only to drop it on his own foot and making the already disadvantaged imperial family suffer even more?

There was no reason for it!

Prince Yan, Jiang Suxin, possessed extraordinary personal charm, and no one could match his contributions to Zhaoqin. Even the Mahayana Stage cultivators of the opposing camp respected him deeply.

If he hadn't first encountered Tian Mingzi and subsequently missed Senior Sister Shao, and had instead headed straight for Tianzi Mountain on his first stop, Lu Bei reckoned there was an eighty percent chance he would have stood on Prince Yan's side.

Moreover, he wasn't qualified to be a shit-stirrer.

Before learning Unity of Heaven and Man, his strength was neither here nor there. He had to go all out just to fight Yan Xiaoshuang.

Without using the Trump Card of the Ten-Eyed Great Demon or taking a couple mouthfuls of vintage fresh milk, he was absolutely no match for Prince Xin or the Willow God, let alone Prince Yan, who had towered over Zhaoqin and remained invincible for a thousand years.
