Within Tianrong City Imperial Palace.
A middle-aged man wearing Dragon Robe stood on top of a tall Pavilion, looking at the majestic Imperial Palace building below with cold eyes. He is the current emperor of the Chu Yun Empire, Sikou Qingtian.
Sikou Qingtian looks like he is only about thirty years old. He has a strong body and exudes a calm but powerful aura.
Sikou Qingtian has only taken over Chu Yun Empire for more than ten years. He was only twenty years old at the time. After the death of the previous emperor Chu Yun Empire, he was forced to take the throne. Originally, Everyone thought that a newly appointed young boy would definitely not be able to fulfill the position of emperor. However, no one expected that under the pressure from all parties, he actually managed Chu Yun Empire in an orderly manner, which impressed all parties.
"Sixth Have you seen them?"
Sikou Qingtian looked at the brightly lit Imperial Palace and spoke calmly. Although there was no one around, he seemed to be talking to someone.
However, after Sikou Qingtian's words fell, the space behind him froze slightly. A man hidden in the darkness came out of the shadows, half-knelt in front of Sikou Qingtian, and said cautiously, "Let me tell you, Your Majesty, they have already met in Sixth Princess's palace this evening, but Sixth Princess cleared everyone out, so we don't know the content of their conversation."
"Haha, what else can I do, it's just to win over them."
Sikou Qingtian heard the words of the man in black and waved his hand, said in a relaxed tone, and then said again, "Black Feather, you go down first."
Black Feather nodded when he heard Sikou Qingtian's words, then bowed and stepped back, hiding in the shadows again, but this time, he did not stay above Pavilion.
After all, His Majesty just asked him to leave, so he can no longer stay here. After wearing Sikou Qingtian for so many years, he is well aware of the terror of the man in front of him.
After Black Feather left, Sikou Qingtian looked up at the moon that had been hanging in the sky for some time, and whispered to himself in an inaudible voice, "Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, some accounts must be settled..."
At dawn, Xiao Fan originally planned to set off for Dinggu City after having breakfast with Yun Yun, but something suddenly happened, which broke Xiao Fan's plan.
Just when Xiao Fan and Xiao Fan were having breakfast, a Heavenly Fragrance House guy suddenly walked in. After looking around, he walked straight towards Xiao Fan and Xiao Fan.
"Mr. Xiao, our shopkeeper invites you."
Xiao Fan looked at the Heavenly Fragrance House guy in front of him in surprise. Xiao Fan knew that if there weren't any special circumstances, I'm afraid Sikou Thirteen would also He will not send anyone to contact him. After all, when he went to the palace to see Sikou Ning yesterday, Sikou Thirteen deliberately staggered the time with him in order to avoid attracting Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect's attention.
Xiao Fan nodded towards the guy, then looked at each other and Yun Yun, and the two rushed towards Heavenly Fragrance House.
Inside Heavenly Fragrance House, it looks the same as usual, but Xiao Fan and Yun Yun have just entered Heavenly Fragrance House. Uncle Tai, who took Xiao Fan and two people to see Sikou Thirteen that day, is already waiting in the lobby.
After Uncle Tai saw Xiao Fan and the others, he led them straight to the seventh floor without saying anything.
Heavenly Fragrance House On the seventh floor, Sikou Thirteen looked anxious. After seeing Xiao Fan, he hurriedly walked towards them and said to Xiao Fan, "Something big has happened!"
"What's the matter?"
Xiao Fan looked at Sikou Thirteen curiously. He was fine yesterday. Why is Sikou Thirteen looking so anxious now?
Sikou Thirteen took a deep breath, and then said to Xiao Fan, "I just received the news this morning that Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect has begun to prepare to provoke a war between the two countries."
Xiao Fan also frowned when he heard Sikou Thirteen's words, looked at Sikou Thirteen, and then said, "Why so fast? Didn't they just have this plan?"
"We don't know either."
Sikou Thirteen shook his head helplessly, with a flash of anger in his eyes, and said, "According to the latest news I got, Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect has brought Poison Source out, and they plan to bring Poison Source was placed in a certain City, sacrificed to the people, and blamed on the Jia Ma Empire, and then forced Imperial Family to issue an edict, triggering a war between the two countries."
Xiao Fan and Yun Yun couldn't sit still after hearing Sikou Thirteen's explanation. If it was true as Sikou Thirteen said, once Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect succeeded, I'm afraid a war between the two countries would be inevitable.
"Then do you know where Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect is planning to attack?"
Xiao Fan glanced at Sikou Thirteen and asked.
When Sikou Thirteen heard what Xiao Fan said, he shook his head helplessly. After all, Chu Yun Empire is so big. Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect can just pick a City at will, and it is impossible to find it.
Xiao Fan frowned tightly when he saw Sikou Thirteen's actions. It wasn't that he didn't want to stop Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, but that he didn't even know where the other party wanted to cause trouble, so why stop him?
"Don't you have any news?"
When Sikou Thirteen heard what Xiao Fan said, he shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile, "This time we were able to spread the news in advance because Scout, who we had mixed into the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect before, was smart, plus some luck. Otherwise, we would probably only know the news after they took action."
Xiao Fan frowned when he heard what Sikou Thirteen said. There was no hint at all. How to stop Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect?
[Ding! New mission detected, prevent Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect from massacring the city. Mission reward: Dou Qi Points+100, Alchemist Experience+30, Source Coins+1000, limited time: 5 days]
Just as Xiao Fan was thinking, the system's voice sounded again, and a new task was triggered again.
Isn't this just a pillow for you when you feel sleepy?
Xiao Fan was slightly happy in his heart. He was worried that he couldn't find the target for the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect to attack, but he didn't expect the system to appear.
"System, where do Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect plan to start?"
[There is no prompt for this task. It is a time-limited task. If it is not completed by the time, the task will fail.]
When Xiao Fan, who was originally delighted, heard the sound of the system, the smile that had not yet risen froze on his face.
The Tangtang system doesn't even have any prompts?
Xiao Fan thought for a while, then looked at Sikou Thirteen again, and said, "It is impossible for everyone to know about such a big move as Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect. Whether it is material preparation or personnel mobilization, it cannot be completed with just a few Elder. Are there any senior officials from the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect within Tianrong City?"
Sikou Thirteen knew Xiao Fan's plan after hearing Xiao Fan's words. His eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "Tianrong City has a branch of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect, and a Elder is permanently stationed here."
