Chapter 442: Jing Yuheng and Zhuge Ruolan's Cooperation

Eldest Princess, do not be impatient; this Elder dares to speak such words, so naturally I am confident.

Within Wangdu, numerous noble families and forces each have their positions; who has chosen the Eldest Princess?

Shadow Grand Elder spoke at length: "None. They are all wise people and would never select a woman as emperor."

Our Yin Gui Sect is the opposite; we can help the Eldest Princess sit on that throne, depending on whether the Eldest Princess has such an intention.

Shadow Grand Elder sat down, smiling warmly at the Eldest Princess.

He remains completely unflustered; that position cannot be refused, and the Eldest Princess is the same. This woman's ambition is great; the Shadow Grand Elder has long known her thoughts and ambitions, and naturally knows what she wants.

A woman harboring such thoughts never displayed them, yet her actions have long been seen through by the Shadow Grand Elder. During this period, the Eldest Princess has been quietly strengthening herself and building her own power.

Once the Black Dragon Guard is … controlled by Jing Yuheng, then the Eldest Princess will gain a sliver of hope.

If they have their help, that position has a fifty percent chance.

They do not believe the Eldest Princess lacks interest.

"Hmph, Shadow Grand Elder, please return."

The Eldest Princess extended her hand, again driving away the Shadow Grand Elder; her inner thoughts were hidden very deep, yet were seen, and this person she cannot keep, nor can she kill.

If possible, she would definitely keep him, but unfortunately, not for now.

"Eldest Princess, you must think carefully."

Shadow Grand Elder tossed out a remark and turned away.

The Eldest Princess's expression grew gloomy as she stared blankly at the Shadow Grand Elder's back.

After a long while, Jing Yuheng appeared; she had not noticed.

When she regained consciousness, Jing Yuheng stood there waiting for her.

"Jing Yuheng, when did you arrive?"

"Your Highness, you…"

The Eldest Princess said briefly; Jing Yuheng furrowed his brows: "They want to cooperate with you, Your Highness?"

"Exactly, this person has seen through our thoughts; they are very dangerous."

The Eldest Princess said coldly: "This person has great scheming; at a time like this, seeking me, they… must have other motives. Yuheng, keep an eye on them, see what they are actually planning. I always feel they must… be plotting against my Qi Family."

Her intuition tells her that Shadow Grand Elder's scheming is huge, and plans must be made early.

Someone like that cannot be left unguarded.

Prepare in advance, keep watch in advance; if possible, kill them in advance.

Jing Yuheng nodded: "Understood, Your Highness."

"This person is very powerful, their methods are bizarre, adept at concealment and evasion; killing them is not easy."

"Unless we can locate their hideout and set an ambush in advance."

Shadow Grand Elder cannot be compared to Elder Yin Feng; their strengths are not on the same level.

This Grand Elder is one of the top strong ones sealed within the world.

Clad in divine abilities, mysterious and bizarre, few have seen him act; Jing Yuheng is not confident.

And does not wish to face such a strong one alone.

"I know that; Yuheng, keep an eye on them, and if you discover anything, don't alert them prematurely."

"The Yin Gui Sect is also not united; then we can join forces with some other members of the Yin Gui Sect to kill them; I think they would gladly."

"I know what to do, Your Highness."

"Go."

Jing Yuheng left the Eldest Princess's residence; after only a few steps, he sensed a breath and hurried after it.

Half an hour later.

Within a Formation, Jing Yuheng stared at the person before him, shrouded in black aura, their body covered in ghostly qi.

The Formation blocked her aura; she slowly turned, staring at Jing Yuheng.

Jing Yuheng saw those eyes and recognized the person before him.

Relaxing slightly, she squinted and said, "Holy Maiden Zhuge Ruolan, you… also came to Wangdu."

Zhuge Ruolan smiled: "Too many people were watching you and me; I could only do this to lure you here. I'm sorry."

The two are old acquaintances, having experienced life and death together.

Zhuge Ruolan reached out: "I want to know Shadow Grand Elder's purpose in seeking you."

Jing Yuheng stared at her, slowly saying, "Cooperation."

"He seeks cooperation with you?"

Zhuge Ruolan was startled for a moment; being so clever, she quickly understood the implication.

Squinting, she stared at Jing Yuheng and said, "The princess behind you isn't after that position, is she?"

Jing Yuheng said nothing, nor denied.

Zhuge Ruolan pondered, "The difficulty is not small; a woman aspiring to become emperor has never happened before. Her pressure is great, and those people will not let her ascend."

"Shadow Grand Elder is scheming, trying to use you; you won't agree, will you?"

Jing Yuheng shook his head: "No, this person is very dangerous. Your Highness ordered me to keep an eye on them. Zhuge Ruolan, how about we join forces?"

Zhuge Ruolan thought for a moment, cautiously saying, "Shadow Grand Elder is very powerful, but as a Golden Core-level strong one, you and I are not his match."

"He possesses the Yin Gui Sect's divine abilities; both his cultivation and abilities surpass yours and mine. If the two of us join forces, it would only be a suicide."

Jing Yuheng laughed: "Just the two of us alone, of course that's not enough; what about adding the Black Dragon Guard?"

"We can kill Elder Yin Feng, and even a Shadow Grand Elder is not impossible to kill."

"Within Wangdu, there are many experts; they would also be glad to see him die."

"Besides them, there are others; as long as there is a chance, those people will also act."

Such a Strong One, having lived many years, certainly has many enemies.

If it's about kicking someone when they're down, they will definitely do it.

"How to cooperate?"

Zhuge Ruolan's heart stirred; the Shadow Grand Elder is very dangerous, and also very… sinister. Moreover, Zhuge Ruolan suspects that her brother Zhuge Gui is beside the Grand Elder, hidden by him.

She follows the Shadow Grand Elder for this reason, to rescue her brother.

Relying on her alone, she is no match for the Shadow Grand Elder; once discovered, life or death is uncertain.

Having a few more helpers is also not impossible.

As for this woman Jing Yuheng, Zhuge Ruolan still trusts her.

"Zhuge Ruolan, you and I…"

The two of them discussed countermeasures, how to act, how to kill him.

The Shadow Grand Elder's whereabouts are unpredictable, making it hard to find his location.

Need Zhuge Ruolan's help, and then together… surround and kill him.

By then, Jing Yuheng will look for some helpers, and together slaughter him.

After a preliminary agreement, the two shook hands.

Cooperation, accomplished.

"Jing Yuheng, I can help you, but my brother's safety must be guaranteed."

"No problem, I will arrange people to help you; as long as you help me find his whereabouts, that's enough."

Jing Yuheng nods: "The rest of the matters, I will take care of."

"Then let's cooperate happily."

"Cooperation happily."
