“What's Foshan City like? Are the people there very strong?” liqin Mei asked Lan Lihua after she told her about her place of origin.
They both seemed to be enjoying tea, as well as some wheat bread and vegetables on the table.
Lan Lihua was able to enter the city earlier, for it was accidentally along with Liqin Mei who had just returned from the Holy Orchid Sect.
Long enough Lan Lihua clashed with the entrance gate guards, at that time Liqin Mei came and felt compassion with Lan Lihua who was actually holding back to urinate.
Long story short the daughter of Patriarch Sun brought Lan Lihua to his residence. And now the two seem familiar, it is seen from the attitude of both of them are equally open even though they still keep each other's words.
“I don't know what the so-called strong are like! Is it possible to oppress, or to sacrifice a brother. There it is not clear who the opponents and friends, the name of a special city because it never entered any empire just on the surface.”
Seeing that Lan Lihua's expression did not look okay in answering her question, Liqin Mei decided to no longer discuss Lan Lihua's origin.
“Kakak May...! You've come home and you haven't seen me!” Princess Li May Lin greeted as she half-run.
Three charming women of different natures now met, Liqin Mei introduced Lan Lihua to Princess Li May Lin before they sat down together.
Princess Li May Lin who had just returned from Prince Li Chen's place after previously accompanying the Prince attended the meeting.
Lan Lihua who was usually unfriendly to new people was now more softened, she smiled kindly when she became acquainted with Princess Li May Lin.
At the same time, Fen Fang observed the outer area of the sect that guarded the dozens of senior sect swordsmen. Their strength from the average-looking was at the peak-stage Expert Hermit.
Seen Fen Fang smiling after observing for a while, his gaze turned towards Tan Hao who was talking to the sect's entrance guards.
“Alright, Sir please come in!” the guard said after checking.
“Good, thanks! Grandpa, let's go in!”
Fen Fang smiled wryly before he started to step up, “Why am I becoming some kind of child guidance counselor playing! Feelings, from earlier always heard the call without a purpose. Haih...!”
A few moments later.
“What do you think of grandfather? Should the three objects be given or not?” tan Hao asked on the sidelines of his journey towards the residence of Patriarch Sun.
“You yourself how? It's up to you, whether you give it or not! Prince Li Chen An might be depressed right now or something, so you can judge for yourself, no!” fen Fang said before turning his eyes to observe around the street that looked quiet.
“Yah ... You may be right, grandfather! May this Prince really be the will of the real people!”
Tan Hao intended to give the three precious objects he had obtained from his previous trip to Prince Li Chen An, including one of the relics of the Tang Empire.
The two discussed lightly until unconsciously had arrived in front of the Patriarch Sun residence guarded by a Spear Elder along with several senior disciples of the sect.
“Halo Junior Hao! Glad you've returned!” Elder Bai Huang immediately greeted as if he had been looking forward to Tan Hao's arrival.
It was very natural, because before Elder Jing Yun closed herself off. He told Elder Bai Huang about the arrival of Tan Hao and some of his friends. Elder Jing Yun also told the current appearance traits of Tan Hao. For that reason Bai Huang could instantly recognize Tan Hao.
During his walk to the residence of Patriarch Sun, Tan Hao also did not miss the opportunity to observe the sect. A lot has changed and he seems to be more advanced than he last saw. The building that stands looks more sturdy and tall, besides that there are only a few shops and one restaurant that has a size large enough.
“Ah... Greetings Elder Huang!” Tan Hao looked surprised because he did not expect to be recognized easily, given the previous spear elder's difficulty in recognizing him.
Tan Hao returned the greetings of Elder Bai Huang and then slightly chatted, from this Elder Bai Huang Tan Hao found out that Elder Jing Yun was undergoing closed-door training and was likely to be out one more day before dark.
Elder Bai Huang also said that Prince Li Chen's condition was still fine even though his current mind was slightly shaken.
Tan Hao got a rough idea regarding the situation of Shuning City also based on the explanation from Elder Bai Huang. Fen Fang was kind enough when he heard, but then he signaled to Tan Hao to quickly meet Patriarch Sun.
What Elder Bai Huang delivered was more than enough according to the demon flute warrior. He also understood about how Elder Jing Yun shut herself down to improve her abilities.
Yan Mu's presence also made him even more convinced that all these problems were not just a matter of planning an attack and the removal of Prince Li Chen An's supporters.
The two of them entered the residence after Tan Hao said goodbye to Elder Bai Huang whose face looked brighter than before as if he was getting a breath of fresh air.
Inside the two-story building, Prince Li Chen was sitting holding his head, while not far from his seat were three people standing guard, one of them was Elder Mei Lin and two more people from the Gold Tower Association who were directly sent from the center in the Chu Empire on the orders of Master Zhang Shen, the owner of the association.
“King Yan has always been interested in the treasures of the Tang Empire, you could say he is very obsessed with resurrecting the Tang Empire. To King Shu, he was among those who upheld the dignity of how vast the realm of power was. Both of them are fanatics in their respective fields, I worry Prince Li Fen.!”.
“Don't rush to draw conclusions! Although there was a point but the possibility was very small, the two high-dignity kings were willing to become supporters of a snot-like brat like Prince Li Fen! If anything happens, I don't think they're really one-sided!” Patriarch Sun tried to calm the tension of Prince Li Chen, he stood by the window while looking out.
Prince Li Chen was always afraid when it came to the two kingdoms, because his father King Li Xiuhuan was killed due to the propaganda of the second concubine who had a close relationship with King Yan, he falls into a trap set by King Shu's emissary while on a visit to the border town between the Shu Kingdoms.
Although she has obtained evidence of the mastermind behind it is her own mother Empress Zhu Mei who favors Prince Li Fen more. But, Prince Li Chen did not have the power to crack down any further.
Support for him continued to flow after the incident, but unfortunately only from among lower-middle-class officials. Although the three great white sects also supported him, but the number of supporters was less than Prince Li Fen.
The peak when all his assets and wealth frozen by faking misappropriations that he never did. Practically, he has nothing to give as a gift to his supporters.
This is inversely proportional to what Prince Li Fen did. As a result, most of his supporters from among the nobility and small government officials slowly retreated and switched sides.
That was why he left the royal capital and took refuge in the Seven Golden Spears sect on the advice of Elder Jing Yun.
Under the leadership of Elder Jing Yun also made the sect of the white-neutral alliance a protector of Prince Li Chen, although he now had no supporters in the royal government in political affairs.
Patriarch Sun did not say much afterwards, realizing that he had difficulty in talking about the government and the matter regarding it to be able to calm Prince Li Chen's worries.
On the other hand, Prince Li Chen stared blankly at the teacup before him, looking from the look in his eyes that he was thinking about many things.
“Patriark, outside there are two young people who want to meet you!” said a waiter after putting down the dish.
“Youth? All right, I'll meet them!” reply Patriarch Sun wondered but immediately turned his body and walked out of the room.
‘Who are these two young men? What do they want to see me for? Considering they could get a guarding entry permit, it meant that these two people had a standing in Shuning City!’ inner Patriarch Sun while walking out of the building.
“Greetings Patriarch Sun...!” Tan Hao saluted with both hands while smiling kindly.
“K-you...!” Patriarch Sun Sian was so shocked that his body slightly raised, his eyes widened.
“Why is the Patriarch so surprised? Didn't Elder Jing Yun already say about me..!”.
