Chapter 1169: The Truth (3)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Long Xi had fallen into a complete shock at this sudden truth. Each piece of information stirred his thoughts, rendering him unable to think properly.
Seeing that Long Xi had yet to collect himself, she decided to send Long Qin back to the palace first, to prevent Xing Hun from noticing anything strange and harming the princess.
After sending Long Qin back to the palace, Ji Fengyan accompanied a still-shaken Long Xi back to his residence.
Long Xi struggled to calm himself down, but it was clear just how shocking all those revelations. He was unable to regain his usual composure and quick wit after being overwhelmed by that barrage of information.
Ji Fengyan did not rush Long Xi into calming down. The Sa Er situation was more complicated than she had imagined. According to Long Qin, Xing Hun had completely taken over control of Sa Er. A huge net was already covering the sky above the kingdom.
And looking at the Sa Er Emperor’s attitude towards Long Xi this recent period, Xing Hun was probably going to make his move soon, to turn the Kingdom of Sa Er upside down.
Up till now, Ji Fengyan suspected that Long Qin was able to leave the palace so easily because Xing Hun was already assured of his victory. He did not care if Long Xi knew the truth now.
Everything…
Appeared to be beyond saving.
“What should I do? Xing Hun has been doing so much, and I only realized it now. Father, mother and sister have all fallen in Xing Hun’s hands. I am afraid even the Sa Er military force might also be in his control now.” The more Long Xi thought of it, the worse things appeared to be.
Xing Hun’s status as the Grand Tutor already accorded him control over all the Terminators in the Kingdom of Sa Er. If he also controlled the military, he would be near-invincible. Even if Long Xi had secretly cultivated an opposing force, he would never be a match for Xing Hun then. How could Long Xi’s own forces be enough to go against the entire military might of the Kingdom of Sa Er?
Ji Fengyan frowned. Long Xi had touched upon the crux of the issue.
The Heavenly Fiend Clan was an extremely unfamiliar clan to her. Ji Fengyan had no idea just how powerful they were. She had only interacted with one of their kind—Liu Huo. And before he had left, Liu Huo had repeatedly cautioned her against going straight-on with a member of the Heavenly Fiend Clan, no matter how confident she was.
A race that could survive for so long in such a tumultuous world—their power was beyond doubt.
“These are not the most important issues for now,” Ji Fengyan said.
“What?” Long Xi raised his head.
“If I am not wrong, Xing Hun will make a move on you during his birthday celebration.” Ji Fengyan hurriedly explained.
“Why?” Long Xi was stunned. Although he knew Xing Hun would try all means to get rid of him and push the fake Long Yue to ascend the throne, why was Ji Fengyan so sure it would happen during Xing Hun’s birthday celebrations?
Ji Fengyan shifted her head slightly to look at Long Xi’s pale face. “I would do that, if I was him.”
Long Xi was startled.
Ji Fengyan continued. “You were the designated heir to the throne since you were born. All these years, you have cultivated a pretty excellent reputation among the Sa Er citizens, fighting for their welfare. Normal means will not suffice if Xing Hun wants to drag you through the mud. The only way is to have you commit a heavy offense. To ensure a successful guilty charge, there must be sufficient evidence, and what better opportunity than his birthday celebration? You should know… all the influential bigwigs of Sa Er will be present to offer Xing Hun their well wishes.”
