140: Here's another message for you

However, the Mysterious Person shook his head slightly, "No, once the crisis arrives, Nangong Ruoxue will either die or become someone else's maidservant. The outcome is unknown!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Nangong Aotian's expression changed in surprise, and he looked at the Mysterious Person before him with suspicion.

With the current strength of the Clear Serenity Empire, how many people could pose a threat to Clear Serenity?

But the Mysterious Person came from that power, and he couldn't help but believe what the other party said!

Nangong Aotian bowed slightly and asked, "How much does the Divine Emissary plan to sell this news for? And if I ask the Divine Emissary to help resolve it, how much will that cost?"

The Mysterious Person didn't make him wait long, and a chilling voice slowly emerged, "The news costs five hundred thousand Spirit Stones! There are two ways to resolve it: the first only requires ten thousand Spirit Stones, and the second requires ten million Spirit Stones!"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Aotian didn't hesitate and immediately took out his Spirit Jade Card, saying, "I'll buy the news first!"

The Mysterious Person nodded slightly, waved his hand to draw the Spirit Jade Card over, and deducted five hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

Immediately after, he spoke, "Someone from the Song Family is secretly working to incite the Western Mist, Eastern Flame, and Beichuan Empires to propose marriage to your eldest daughter, Nangong Ruoxue!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Nangong Aotian's expression shifted slightly, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

But then, he couldn't help but frown slightly, "Divine Emissary, this doesn't seem to count as a crisis, does it?"

"Indeed!" The Mysterious Person nodded slightly, "This is a piece of news I'm giving you first, it can be considered an extra."

Nangong Aotian nodded slightly, only to hear the Mysterious Person's voice continue, "Heavenly Sword Sect has an envoy from the Sacred Domain, who seems to be the son of a prominent figure in the Sacred Domain's Heavenly Sword Sect. The Song Family learned of his existence and revealed Nangong Ruoxue's talent to him!"

"That person acts somewhat overbearingly and has already decided to come. He possesses Early Stage Spirit Venerable Realm cultivation, coupled with a somewhat special imperial artifact. The Clear Serenity Empire cannot do anything to him, and even resisting stubbornly will result in many deaths. Nangong Ruoxue will either die or become a maidservant!"

Hearing this, Nangong Aotian's expression changed slightly.

The Mortal Realm cannot produce king artifacts!

king artifacts from the Sacred Domain cannot pass through, and even if they did, they would be suppressed to top-grade spirit artifacts. But the Divine Emissary said the other party has a special imperial artifact, so it must be true.

If that were truly the case, for the Mortal Realm, it would indeed be a dimensionality reduction strike; for his daughter, Nangong Ruoxue, it would indeed be a crisis!

Nangong Aotian's mind raced, but then the Mysterious Person's voice came again.

"Oh, and I'll give you another piece of news: your second son, Nangong Jinglin, plans to hire assassins to attack Nangong Ruoxue. If you hadn't known about the Song Family's actions beforehand, perhaps the assassins would already be on their way."

As soon as these words were spoken, Nangong Aotian's expression changed slightly, clearly not expecting that rebellious son to dare to do such a thing!

At this moment, he wished he could go and severely beat that rebellious son and imprison him permanently!

But he understood that now was not the time!

He took a deep breath, calmed his urge to hit someone, and looked at the Mysterious Person.

"May I ask, Divine Emissary, is stopping the person from Heavenly Sword Sect considered resolving Ruo Xue's crisis, correct?"

Nangong Aotian pondered for a moment, looking at the Mysterious Person as he asked. As for the marriage proposals from the other three empires, he didn't take them to heart.

Today's Clear Serenity does not fear its neighboring countries!

Even if surrounded by enemies on all sides, Clear Serenity has no fear!

But as soon as he asked this question, a faint unease stirred within him!

"Yes, and no!"

The Mysterious Person nodded, then shook his head slightly, "Stopping the person from Heavenly Sword Sect can indeed resolve Nangong Ruoxue's crisis, but if you don't deal with the assassin matter, or don't send people to protect her at all times, Nangong Ruoxue will still die!"

Hearing this, Nangong Aotian finally understood where his unease came from.

So that's what they were waiting for him to realize!
