In the inn, Lv Yang stood by Mu Ruyue’s side, his respectful deanor not at all like that of a Supre Strong People who controlled the winds and clouds.
At this mont in the inn, Mu Ruyue and Dian Ling sat opposite each other. After a long silence, she slowly spoke, "Just now, I seem to have heard you ntion the Dan Book..."
"Yes," Dian Ling lightly pursed her lips, "I once heard the captain ntion it. It was his grandpa who accidentally acquired a book with the words Dan Book written on its pages. It is said that whoever obtains the Dan Book can beco the most powerful Alchemy Master. However, not everyone can acquire it, only soone destined..."
"Later, before he passed away, he handed the Dan Book to an old friend for safekeeping, instructing them to find the destined person for the Dan Book. That person just now was the captain’s brother, trying every possible way to obtain the Dan Book. As the captain wouldn’t reveal the whereabouts of the Dan Book, he intended to act against us."
Dian Ling’s face was slightly pale, her tone filled with helplessness.
"And the others?" Mu Ruyue asked lightly.
Hearing this, Dian Ling let out a bitter smile, "Miss Mu, we never told you our identity. The captain is not an ordinary person but His Highness the Fifth Prince of the Empire. From a young age, the Supre Emperor was very fond of him. It was due to this affection that he was frad, several tis nearly losing his life in the Netherworld. Later, the Supre Emperor entrusted him to others for protection, calling it exile. He only returned to the Empire a few months ago when His Majesty fell gravely ill... We are people whom the Fifth Prince t outside, forming a team. Later, upon learning of the Fifth Prince’s true identity, we followed him back to the Empire."
Mu Ruyue listened quietly, remaining silent.
Dian Ling continued, "Not long ago, the Fourth Prince sohow invited a High-level Heavenly Rank Alchemist. The Elixir he refined lacked a Purple Spiritual Flower, so to save His Majesty’s life, the captain went to the Purgatory Forest."
"The things I said to you before, did you not take them to heart?" Mu Ruyue’s eyes sank as she asked lightly.
"Are you referring to how the Purple Spiritual Flower can control a person’s nerves? We have already ntioned it to His Majesty, but unfortunately, His Majesty has blind faith in Master Shen Mo and can’t listen to us. Now, as long as Master Shen Mo completes the preliminary preparations, he will refine the Elixir to save His Majesty. If it is truly as you say, perhaps this is another sche of the Fourth Prince..."
Dian Ling’s heart was filled with worry. If this is indeed the case, the captain’s situation may beco even more difficult...
"Let’s go."
Mu Ruyue stood up from her seat, speaking lightly.
Dian Ling was taken aback, "Where to?"
"The Imperial Palace!" Mu Ruyue lightly lowered her gaze, a glint flashing in her eyes, "Take to see the emperor of the Empire. I want to see what his ailnt truly is!"
Dian Ling lightly pursed her thin lips, remaining silent. Mu Ruyue might just be a disciple of an Alchemy Master, as she could casually take out a Heavenly Middle-level Elixir.
With her here, perhaps she could save His Majesty’s life...
Thinking of this, Dian Ling’s heart filled with joy, and she felt a surge of hope once again.
"Miss Mu, I’ll take you to the palace now. If the captain and father see you, they’ll surely be overjoyed!"
Gazing at Dian Ling’s hopeful face, Lv Yang snorted disdainfully.
Since she is the disciple of the Master of Nihility, as long as you ask the Master of Nihility to take action, there is no ailnt that can trouble him...
