Chapter 615: Mother's Warning

Heavenly Heart Sect.

Tian Xin Dao Ren's eyes gazed into the distance, the corners of his mouth turning up.

"Spirit Sword Old Ghost, this time it's your turn; they've set their sights on us."

"Qi Ruohua, that woman is truly insane; before she's even secured that position, she's already moving against us—if we let her fully seize the throne, where will we stand?"

"She's very clever; she's dealt with everyone who needed handling. Among the Qi family, only Qi Mingyu remains, and the two other princesses have been imprisoned by her, holding life and death in her hands, unable to resist."

"I have to say, she's more decisive and harder to deal with than the previous Qihuang."

Tian Xin Dao Ren fears that woman, Qi Ruohua's scheming, and her ruthlessness, which are far greater than the previous Qihuang's.

This woman, even if she lost half of the Qi Luck Golden Dragon, wouldn't care; in fact, it's likely part of her plan.

The Great Qi Dynasty has caused a great commotion; this time it's the Spirit Sword Sect's turn, possibly triggering a chain of reactions.

"Mu Longhao, this beast, should be left to die, rather than bring disaster upon oneself."

"Spirit Sword Old Ghost shouldn't be so impulsive, unless he's reached some agreement with Mu Longhao."

Tian Xin Dao Ren narrowed his eyes, staring into the distance.

They won't be dealing with each other for a lifetime; even now, he dare not underestimate Lingjian Zhenren.

Having opposed each other so many times, with wins and losses about even, they naturally understand each other.

Precisely because they understand, they sense something is wrong.

"Will the one on Longshe Mountain make a move?"

"This is a good opportunity."

Tian Xin Dao Ren looked toward Longshe Mountain, his eyes full of solemnity.

Without the earlier relaxed demeanor, that person left him with no point of attack.

Unfathomable, intangible—that feeling left him without confidence.

Terrifying, frightening.

He truly… felt awful.

During this time, they've repeatedly sought Chen Chuyang's weaknesses; the result was that person hiding on Longshe Mountain, rarely going out, and even when he did, using some unknown means to go straight to the capital and back, making it impossible to monitor Chen Chuyang.

This was the first time he felt so powerless, and also the first time he feared a person.

Tian Xin Dao Ren didn't want too much conflict with Chen Chuyang, but…

"Junior Sister Tianlian, you must hold on."

……

Wangdu.

The royal palace's grand staircase.

Qi Ruohua raised her head, gazing into the distance.

"Spirit Sword Sect."

"Lingjian Zhenren, hum, daring to shelter Mu Longhao, clearly intending to oppose our Great Qi Dynasty."

Her slender finger pointed; behind her, the moon rose.

Her posture became exquisite.

Her flawless pale face gained a hint of cold frost.

She put down the pen in her hand, Qi Ruohua rose, clasped her hands behind her back, and walked outside.

That moon slowly rose, hanging in the sky, illuminating the entire capital.

At this moment, everyone inside and outside the capital was bathed in moonlight, yet these weak ones could not see the moon.

Only some strong ones could sense it, raising their heads to stare at that moon, daring not to move.

One person, suppressing the entire capital.

Qi Ruohua snorted coldly, icy chill spreading; those spiritual senses all vanished.

"Jing Yuheng, this time you're anxious."

"However, the Spirit Sword Sect dares to oppose me; it cannot be forgiven."

"Dispatch the Demon-Suppressing Army to suppress the Spirit Sword Sect."

"That person should have sensed it too; he will act."

Qi Ruohua, to be sure, sent a message to Chen Chuyang.

This operation must not fail.

It concerns the stability of her position, and also the fortune of the Great Qi Dynasty.

Spirit Sword Sect must pay a price.

The Qi Luck devoured by the Myriad Poison Demon King cannot be recovered; it can only be seized from elsewhere.

Moreover, that Qi Luck is not what she needs.

The Great Qi Dynasty needs to change; it must discard some things.

"The rise of the Chen clan cannot be stopped by anyone."

"What we gain this time, what if we give half to the Chen clan?"

She only needs to suppress the Spirit Sword Sect; everything else can be negotiated.

"But only Chen Chuyang, others don't have this… treatment."

"You, will you satisfy me?"

Chen clan.

Chen Yuan was the last to learn of this news; he looked at his younger brother and wife.

Having mobilized the Chen clan's manpower, they began preparing for battle.

Elder brother, this time you hold the fort at the Chen Clan.

Chen Shen said: "You and sister-in-law hold the fort, I and second brother will bring people to the Spirit Sword Sect."

Chen Yuan worried: "Third brother, the Spirit Sword Sect isn't easy to go to; you've taken a bit of a risk this time."

How about this: let elder brother go, and you stay at the Chen Clan.

Third brother hasn't left any descendants yet; if something happens, his elder brother would...

Elder brother, no need, my safety is nothing for you to worry about." Third Uncle Chen Shen waved his hand: "This kind of good fortune, how could it fall to elder brother to go?"

This time, it's not just him going; second brother and nephew Chuyang are also going.

With Chen Chuyang nearby, safety is assured.

Perhaps they could obtain some opportunity and thus soar.

By then, just like sister-in-law, they will suppress elder brother.

He also wants elder brother to kneel before him begging for mercy; that feeling would surely be satisfying.

Is Chuyang also going?

Chen Yuan asked suddenly; Chen Shen smiled and nodded.

Chen Yuan's face changed instantly; he grabbed Chen Shen's hand: "Third brother, let elder brother go this time; elder brother cannot let you take risks."

If he stays at home, he will suffer greatly.

If he goes out, he might have a fortuitous encounter.

Even the son is going; safety is no problem.

Elder brother, you are the Family Head; you cannot run around recklessly. This time, please stay put at the Chen Clan.

Sister-in-law, watch elder brother; don't let him run around recklessly.

By then, nephew Chuyang and I will go together; you need to keep an eye on the Longshe Shan side.

Chen Shen waved his hand and left.

Those remaining words made Chen Yuan feel a chill all over.

The wife behind him, her gaze made him unable to breathe.

Um, wife, we...

Long Ming gave him a cold glance and warned: "During this time, you must stay at the Chen Clan; you cannot go anywhere."

Wife, I...

Do you have any objections?

No, no, no." Chen Yuan shrank his head, not daring to defy.

Seeing this, Long Ming softened his tone: "Actually, I'm not stopping you; I'm doing this for your own good. That fox spirit doesn't know what she wants; rashly approaching you must have some ulterior motive."

Don't let her deceive you; also, those two children, Chuyang will watch over them, so you needn't worry.

As for Hongxue, I've already instructed her; she will help look after the two children.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan immediately laughed.

He stepped forward and took hold of his wife's hand.

Wife, what are you talking about? How could I be angry? I know you're doing this for my own good.

I know all that.

Long Ming frowned, but still did not shake off his hand.

You, pay attention; if that woman were like Liu Yuer, how could I not let her in?

What a pity, she is not.

Chen Yuan's just-excited heart sank once again.
