National Master Xie Yushen laughed.
He did not continue to question Lu Chi about who killed Noble Princess Consort Ji.
Instead, he asked Lu Chi why he had co to seek him.
Lu Chi surely had his own purpose.
Xie Yushen asked straightforwardly.
If it was about who killed Noble Princess Consort Ji, Lu Chi was unwilling to say... he wouldn’t force it.
But if Lu Chi didn’t directly tell him the purpose of coming, Xie Yushen would imdiately dismiss him.
Xie Yushen’s half-black, half-white hair fluttered in the brisk spring breeze passing through the corridor.
He stared at Lu Chi.
Lu Chi suddenly raised his head.
"National Master..."
"This palace wants to compete!"
Xie Yushen heard this, and laughed, the wrinkles on his face stacking, his eyes blazing, showing a hint of satisfaction.
"Why do you want to compete?"
Xie Yushen asked again.
Lu Chi clenched his fist, closed his eyes, his clenched fist relaxed and tightened again...
Finally, he slowly exhaled.
"I want to prove..."
"I am worthy."
Xie Yushen was stunned, and the next mont, he stroked his beard and laughed heartily, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
He laughed so hard he bent forward and backward, his tears falling from laughter.
It was the first ti he had heard soone wanting to compete for the position of Crown Prince with such an odd reason.
Xie Yushen understood from Lu Chi’s words that "worthy" was worthy of what...
Not worthy of the Crown Prince position, not worthy of the throne in the central Imperial Palace of the First City.
But...
Worthy of a person.
That’s all.
...
...
Divine Capital Second City.
Octagonal Double-eave Water Tower.
Nine-tiered treasure tower, with flying eaves and corners, topped by nine flying dragons, lifelike, guarding a Treasure Bead glowing with divinity.
Inside the treasure tower.
Li Che looked sowhat astonished at the enormous green turtle before him.
This turtle lay on the ground, its shell seed about to pierce through the roof as it moved, causing it to shatter.
Yet the two Deputy Inspectors referred to this big turtle as the Chief Supervisor...
Li Che was numb.
In his heart, he had long anticipated the mysterious existence praised by Lv Taibai, Hong Shifu, Yue Huanglong, and others, who authored the Great God List, Heavenly Gate, and Divine Weapon List, as the Chief of the Observatory.
The result...
Reality left Li Che sowhat numbed.
Deputy Inspector Fang Shangzhen seed to catch Li Che’s numbed and astonished look and lightly smiled: "Guest Official Li, don’t misunderstand... this great Xuan Turtle Demon King is the Chief Supervisor’s pet."
As Fang Shangzhen finished speaking,
The gigantic Xuan Turtle’s bell-like eyes turned, focusing on Li Che.
"Arrived?"
The Xuan Turtle spoke.
Li Che’s black robe fluttered, montarily unsure whether to speak to this Xuan Turtle.
However, Li Che still clasped his fist in salute: "Arrived."
"Qintian Observatory has a total of twelve Special Class Guest Ministers, if you can pass the assessnt, you will beco the thirteenth Special Class Guest Minister, enjoying the privilege of freely moving through the Divine Capital aside from the First City, and additionally, obtaining a qualification for a cultivation slot within this treasure tower."
The Xuan Turtle spoke with a deep, booming voice that made the whole floor vibrate.
"The prerequisite is you pass the Special Class Guest Minister assessnt."
The Xuan Turtle simply stated after saying a couple of sentences.
Then, his gaze shifted, landing on the Third Prince Lv Litong clad in a light gold python robe.
The Third Prince imdiately felt a bit oppressed, his eyes remained bloodshot, filled with grief, clasped his fist and said: "Please, Chief Supervisor, assist ."
The Xuan Turtle’s large eyes focused on the Third Prince.
Then, opening its mouth, it seed to spray out countless streams of air, as the enormous body of the Xuan Turtle slowly shrank...
Down to the size of a Baxiang table, and on the Xuan Turtle’s back sat a vague figure ford by white smoke.
Everyone looked over, unable to clearly see the appearance of the Chief Supervisor.
"Since Third Prince has decided, this Heavenly Order shall be recovered by this seat."
The Chief Supervisor spoke lightly.
With a lift of his hand, the Heavenly Order in the Third Prince’s hand imdiately left his grasp, floating up, flying towards the Chief Supervisor.
And just as it floated into the air, it exploded with a roar.
Countless beams of light flickered and interwove, appearing as a myriad of colorful streams, constantly interweaving in the void.
Seated on the Xuan Turtle’s back, the Chief Supervisor pinched his fingers to form a seal.
A flick of his finger.
The colorful streams of light exploded, akin to fireworks.
Gradually forming into a Jade Pearl.
"The answer you seek lies within this Heavenly chanism Jade Pearl... return to open the Heavenly chanism Jade Pearl."
The Chief Supervisor’s faint voice resounded.
Afterwards, the Jade Pearl gently fell into the Third Prince’s hand.
The Heavenly Order transford into a Heavenly chanism Jade Pearl, once opened, it would automatically destroy itself, signifying the complete severance of ties between the Third Prince and the Chief Supervisor.
The Third Prince pursed his lips, took the Heavenly chanism Jade Pearl without hesitation, storing it into the Qiankun Jade.
"Thank you, Chief Supervisor, for fulfilling this."
"To have filial respect in one’s heart, very good."
The Chief Supervisor on the Xuan Turtle’s back nodded slightly, praising lightly.
The Third Prince’s face was full of sorrow: "My mother concubine has already passed away, this palace can no longer fulfill filial piety... I can only do my utmost to find the murderer, personally kill the murderer, to let my mother concubine rest in peace."
The Chief Supervisor nodded slightly.
Then spoke: "Next, I must conduct the Special Class Guest Minister assessnt with Li Half-Saint... Your Highness, please leave for now."
The Third Prince heard this, glanced at Li Che.
He originally wanted to stay to see if Li Che could pass the Special Class Guest Minister assessnt.
But, considering it, he did not voice it, if he stayed to watch Li Che’s Special Class Guest Minister assessnt now, it would conflict with his emotions of wanting to avenge Noble Princess Consort Ji.
