uanyuan Men's Sikong Chen, is it How could he be here"His expression seemed off, like he was here for revenge This couldn't be Si Kong Chen himself, could it...But the clothes he was wearing were the...Tian Hai looked at Wang An, nodded, and asked, "How many yuan coins do you need"

"I, I, I... No, no..." Wang An shook his head repeatedly.

Yu Tianhai looked at Fang Yu.

"Of course I have to. I never like owing anyone favors," Fang Yu said.

Hearing this, Yu Tianhai walked towards the shore.

……

A few minutes later, Wang An was escorted away.

Fang Yu and Yu Tianhai stayed at the gate of Ningyu Pavilion.

"About the task I gave you before, you have to do it well. No human inside Ningyu Pavilion can be harmed. If anyone gets hurt, I'll come after you." Fang Yu said.

Yu Tianhai lowered his head, his eyes filled with fear, and replied, "I understand, but..."

"Just what" Fang Yu asked.

"Si Nan is dying, the Si Nan clan will know sooner or later, and... what happened in Ning Yu Pavilion will also be hard to keep secret." At this point, Yu Tianhai paused, his voice trembling, "If this continues, the whole city of Wangcheng will eventually know about your existence... then everyone in the city will be your enemy."

Tian Hai accepted Fang Yu's blood pact, and now he could only listen to Fang Yu's orders.

Otherwise, Fang Yu could have him killed with a single thought.

Unless Fang Yu dies, the blood pact will always exist.

One cannot expect or wish for Fang Yu's death, even if it were to benefit Tian Hai.

Even if Fang Yu died, the fact that he was currently serving under Fang Yu remained unchanged.

Fang Yu died, and like Tian Hai, he would be held accountable.

The City Guard Commander, it sounds like a good position, quite impressive... But in the eyes of those nobles in the royal city, it's just the captain of the guards.

His kind of position can be easily replaced, it's not irreplaceable.

Therefore, for Tian Hai, it was a dead end either way.

He is filled with remorse at this moment.

If I hadn't agreed to Si Nanzheng's invitation and hadn't come to this Ningyu Pavilion today, I wouldn't have met Fang Yu.

But it's all happened now, there's no turning back.

Yu Tianhai now just wants to live a little longer, one moment at a time. He can only obey Fang Yu's every request!

Unless he could find an opportunity later, and find a noble who would promise to protect his life after Fang Yu's death, he had no chance of escaping!

"Even if the entire city is filled with enemies, do you think I came to the capital for nothing" Fang Yu said calmly.

This sentence gave Yu Tianhai a fright.

"Alright, let's take a stroll around the Wangcheng. You lead the way this time, it's your turn to be the 'Wang An'." Fang Yu said.

The Ning Yu Pavilion has been taken control of.

Their vice-chancellor also accepted Fang Yu's blood pact.

Therefore, Fang Yu would be the first to know if Ning Yuge encountered any problems.

At this point, he could wander around freely, waiting for a response from the Sīnan clan or the royal city.

……

West of the capital city, within the main city of the Sī Nán clan.

Inside a grand hall, there was a stepped table, stacked layer upon layer.

And each layer was adorned with objects similar to spirit tablets, each faintly glowing.

At the very top, on the first step, there were only three cards laid out.

The second layer has fifteen, and the third layer has even more, with forty-eight.

The fourth layer, fifth layer, sixth layer... up to eight layers in total, with more cards each time.

This is the sky lantern card for every member of the Sī Nán tribe!

These cards symbolize the vitality of every member of the Sī Nán clan.

Glowing, representing that the member is all right.

But once the glow fades, or the whole lantern breaks… that means the sky lantern is extinguished, and one's fate has run its course.

Before this table, laden with countless sky lantern plaques, there was always a guard on duty.

This subordinate was bored, watching the scenery outside the door.

"Click!"

Suddenly, a sharp crack!

His subordinates were taken aback for a moment, then turned their heads to look at the table.

He swept his gaze around, and then discovered that the lantern plaque in the middle of the third step...was gone!

It's not that it hasn't been seen, but that it has been crushed!

Turned into a pile of rubble, scattered across each step.

Seeing this, his subordinates took a few seconds to react.

His expression shifted from lazy to dazed, from dazed to shocked, from shocked to panicked, to terror!

The sky lantern plaque in the middle of the third staircase...isn't it the core of the third generation, Lord Sī Nán,! 166

Sī Nánzhèng's sky lantern plaque was shattered...

More than just lights out, more than just the street lamps breaking, it was shattered.

What does this mean...

The subordinate stood there for over ten seconds, his face gradually paling.

Then, he shouted and rushed out of the hall!

"Hurry, hurry and report! Sir Nan Zheng, Sir Nan Zheng is in trouble! Sir Nan Zheng has met with an accident..."

The subordinate roared and ran toward the mansion ahead.

……

"The royal city is so vast; I can't even see the palaces from here." Fang Yu walked along the wide street, looking ahead.

“Yes, the palace is in the center. It's still in the southern part of the city,” Tian Hai replied.

"I want to know, what realm is the cultivation of the strongest member of your Gen Clan at about" Fang Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at Yu Tianhai, asking.

"The strongest..."

Yu Tianhai's face immediately became awestruck, he looked forward and said in a low voice: "Most people believe that the strongest person within the dynasty is naturally His Majesty, the current Source King... His cultivation should be at the Heavenly Immortal realm."

"Celestial Fairy, which realm exactly" Fang Yu asked.

"I'm not sure," Tian Hai shook his head, replying. "Source King rarely makes a move, and no one knows his exact cultivation level."

"You just said that most people think it's the Source King, which means... there is a portion who don't" Fang Yu frowned slightly and asked.

"Yes, and there are also a few whispers, but they only dare to discuss them in private..." Tian Hai's voice dropped even lower, and he glanced around before continuing, "There are also some who believe that the current Grand Tutor is the strongest person within the Yuan Clan Dynasty, and his cultivation base is also at the Heavenly Immortal realm."

"Grand Tutor" Fang Yu's eyes flickered.

“Yes, the Grand Tutor... He is His Majesty King Yuan's most trusted subordinate. They fought together to conquer the land and establish the Yuan Dynasty back then. The Grand Tutor was the greatest contributor.” Yu Tianhai said, “However... in recent years their relationship seems to have grown distant, also due to various rumors spreading throughout the dynasty…”

"You seem to know quite a bit about this." Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.

"Although my position is low, I occasionally attend court and naturally hear some gossip." Yu Tianhai replied in a low voice.

"The Grand Tutor is the Emperor Yuan's most trusted subordinate. But what about those founding clans, like the Sī Nán clan, who established the dynasty in the first place" Fang Yu asked.

“There are a total of thirty-eight great clans, and their main cities are built on both sides of the royal city,” Tian Hai replied. “Their status, of course, is incomparable to that of the Grand Tutor. The Source King didn't trust them at all. He set up these clans' main cities on either side of the royal city rather than in other areas precisely to facilitate control and prevent them from rebelling.”m..."Another half hour passed.At this time, the power released by the Northern Crossing Immortal was gradually diminishing.His face was extremely ugly, staring intently at Wang Fan.The Annihilation Te...
