195: The little mouse that got overlooked!

Nangong Yu blinked and shook his head slightly. He felt it was better not to discuss this topic with Nangong Ruoshui.

Thinking of this, he proactively changed the subject, saying, "Second Imperial Sister, since we have time now, why don't you tell me about the Xuan Yuan Secret Realm?"

"For example, when exactly does the Xuan Yuan Secret Realm open, and where is the opening location?"

Hearing this, Nangong Ruoshui composed herself somewhat, her Face still slightly flushed.

She glanced at Nangong Yu, feeling that when she was with him, she could confide many of her thoughts, much better than when she was with her own younger brother.

Nangong Ruoshui secretly shook her head, not overthinking it, and said seriously, "The Xuan Yuan Secret Realm opens in half a month, to be precise, on the third day of next month. This time has not changed for countless years!"

"As for the opening location, according to the scattered words in the ancient texts, there is a Secret Realm portal on Cloud Dream Peak, and also deep within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains. Rumor has it there are many such places."

Nangong Yu nodded slightly upon hearing this. "Cloud Dream Peak will be much closer, but that place is rumored to be a bit strange. I wonder where Second Imperial Sister wants to go?"

"I don't know yet, and I haven't looked into it. I wanted to ask for your opinion," Nangong Ruoshui said with an embarrassed smile.

Nangong Yu blinked, his expression a bit odd, but he also smiled and said, "How about this: there are still about fourteen or fifteen days until the Secret Realm opens. Second Imperial Sister can prepare, and these two days I'll consult the ancient texts and make more preparations. In five days, I'll accompany Second Imperial Sister on the trip!"

"Okay, thank you, Xiao Yu!"

Nangong Ruoshui nodded happily. "Xiao Yu, I'll trouble you then. I'm going back first."

"No trouble at all!" Nangong Yu shook his head slightly. "However, isn't Second Imperial Sister going to stay and play for a while before going back?"

Nangong Ruoshui smiled and said, "Time is pressing, I need to go prepare. When we journey together later, I'll treat you to a drink, Xiao Yu!"

"Alright! Then I won't keep Second Imperial Sister."

"No need to see me off, I'm leaving!" Nangong Ruoshui put away her Formation Plate, turned, and quickly departed.

Nangong Yu picked up his tea and took a sip, only to see her return. "Xiao Yu, you must not tell anyone about today's events, absolutely no one!"

"Alright!"

Nangong Yu nodded slightly, his expression a little serious.

Receiving this reply, Nangong Ruoshui smiled charmingly and turned to leave.

"I want to help you, but it's not easy for me to get involved. Even through the Mysterious Person, you don't have that many Spirit Stones!"

Nangong Yu murmured in his heart. As for selling at a low price, Nangong Ruoshui wouldn't believe it so easily. After all, who would do a losing business?

"Forget it, take it one step at a time!"

Nangong Yu stopped overthinking, but he also didn't tell Nangong Ruoshui about his true cultivation. His mother didn't even know, so why should Nangong Ruoshui?

Nangong Yu shook his head slightly, stood up, and was about to leave when he felt something amiss and sat back down.

He looked at the pavilion hidden by the illusion in front of him and said, "Disha, what is it?"

As his voice fell, a transparent light figure appeared in the pavilion.

He knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "There are two matters to report. First, there is a Black-Robed Person in the West City who hired assassins from the Netherworld Hall and Yellow Springs Tower to kill you. We captured him, but he seems a bit special, so we'd like to hear your instructions."

"Oh? These big ants from assassin organizations still dare to enter Qingyou Imperial City?" Nangong Yu asked in surprise.

Disha gently shook his head. "They wouldn't normally dare, but three years ago, we made some transactions with the Netherworld Hall and Yellow Springs Tower, which allowed it."

"Alright then!" Nangong Yu nodded slightly, then asked, "What's special about that Black-Robed Person?"

"He was the one who escaped back then, besides Tuoba Yelü. Everyone thought he was dead, so we didn't discover his existence at the time. This was our oversight; please forgive us, Master!"

At this point, Disha lowered his head and said no more.

Hearing this, Nangong Yu fell silent. He naturally understood Disha's meaning.

An escaped fish?

Why would a little mouse who was overlooked dare to reappear?

"What did he participate in and do back then?"

Nangong Yu's expression was calm, seemingly neither happy nor sad, and indeed he was neither happy nor sad.

Disha quickly replied, "This subordinate interrogated him with illusion techniques. He participated with Tuoba Saye in attacking the Prince of Zhenbei, but Tuoba Saye died, while his Divine Soul escaped."

"To be precise, he secretly Cultivated an Incarnation, and his Divine Soul transferred to the Incarnation, escaping our investigation back then!"

"Understood!" Nangong Yu nodded slightly, then his expression turned cold. "Since he dares to reappear, then let's settle the score directly!"

At this point, Nangong Yu's chilling voice drifted out, like a whisper from the Nine Netherworlds.

"Disha, send a team of Divine Shadow Emissaries to the Beichuan Empire. Anyone who participated back then—"

"—slaughter their entire clan!"

"The Beichuan Empire's imperial family, leave no one alive!"

"As for Tuoba Saye and this person, reduce their bodies and spirit infants to ashes. Capture their Divine Souls; I want to refine two Undying Heavenly Lamps!"

At these words, Disha's transparent light figure couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he quickly bowed his head. "Understood!"

"Also, the Netherworld Hall and Yellow Springs Tower have repeatedly accepted missions targeting me. I don't like it. Slaughter all beings above the Divine Combination Realm!"

"Understood!"

Nangong Yu nodded slightly, calming his murderous intent, and continued, "What about the other matter?"

Disha lowered his head, his voice slowly emerging, "Nangong Jinglin is causing trouble again. He sent a message asking Concubine Shu to hire Netherworld Hall assassins, intending to ambush and kill you and Young Miss Ruo Xue!"

Nangong Yu closed his eyes slightly, his expression helpless. "He's already imprisoned, how can he still cause trouble? Imperial Uncle's Face is being completely exhausted by you!"

Disha lowered his head, quietly awaiting further instructions.

Nangong Yu slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp. "Those who kill will be killed. Create a little 'accident' for the two of them, subtly!"

"Understood!"

Disha nodded, but then heard Nangong Yu's voice again.

"Additionally, dispatch ten Divine Shadow Emissaries to secretly guard the Qingyou Imperial Palace. As long as I am on the Xuanling Continent, the reigning Emperor of the Clear Serenity Empire will not die, and the Empire will not fall!"

"As for the other Divine Shadow Emissaries, instruct them to follow me into the Saint Realm when I leave the Mortal Realm!"

"Alright, you may withdraw!"

"Understood!"

Disha acknowledged, his figure slowly dissipated, and the illusion covering the entire pavilion vanished with him.

Nangong Yu stood up, only to see Ye Jingling hurrying over, bowing and saying, "Your Highness, breakfast is ready. Has Grand Princess left?"

"Hmm," Nangong Yu nodded slightly. "Have you sent someone to invite Fellow Daoist Bai?"

"Qiu Ye went to invite her!" Ye Jingling quickly replied.

"Then let's go!" Nangong Yu smiled slightly and stepped towards the dining hall.

Ye Jingling followed closely, her gaze becoming a bit more complex as she looked at Nangong Yu's back.
