Peaceful and comfortable time always seems short.When Shrek City, filled with sadness, was shrouded in darkness again, everyone who knew everything knew that the battle was about to begin again.

Not everyone cares about the lives of civilians, and there are no unwritten rules. The only reason why these masters and followers choose to act late at night is just four simple words: uncertainty.

During the day, in the largest city on the Douluo Continent, forces from all sides were mixed together, and starting a war rashly would likely lead to unnecessary trouble.Such trouble, in this tense situation at this moment, may undoubtedly be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Therefore, in order to prevent accidents from happening, those participating in the Holy Grail War all chose to take action at night.

But no matter how careful Shrek Academy is, there is no airtight wall in the world.What's more, so many major events have happened in Shrek in just a few days. The eyes of all the powers in the world have focused here, and naturally they have discovered some hidden things.

Night, the Empire of the Sun and Moon.Due to the difference in geographical location, Shrek City has just entered night at this moment, while the Sun and Moon Empire is already in the middle of the night.

During this time when he should be sleeping soundly, only in the center of the Sun Moon Empire's capital, in the prince's mansion at the deepest part of the palace, the prince Xu Tianran was sitting on a gorgeous chair, listening to his subordinates below. report.

"You mean, a few days ago, the master of Mingde Hall did not come back with the large army, but lost his whereabouts?" Xu Tianran frowned, knocked on the handle of the ornately carved chair, was silent for a moment, and asked slowly : "Do his grandchildren know about this?"

"This……"

The intelligence officer in black robes who sat down with Xu Tianran and knelt on the ground hesitated for a moment and then said: "The master of Mingde Hall is the imperial advisor of the empire. According to regulations, we cannot place personnel in..."

Seeing Xu Tianran's frown, he quickly changed his words and said, "But we investigated a steward of Mingdetang. He followed the National Master to participate in the Continental Senior Soul Master Elite Academy Soul Fighting Competition. It took us some time, but we got some information."

Xu Tianran didn't bother to care how they obtained the information, and he didn't want to pay attention to their little thoughts for the time being.But as a national advisor, Jing Hongchen could give him too much help in striving for the position of emperor. Otherwise, he would not keep an eye on the other party's whereabouts, praying to grab some clues or find opportunities for cooperation. .

At this moment, when he heard his subordinates say that they had obtained the information, he nodded and said, "Tell me, where did our Imperial Master go during this critical period?"

"Master Imperial Master, he...he went to Shrek Academy."

"Shrek?"

Hearing his subordinate's answer, even in Xu Tianran's state of mind, a look of surprise could not help but appear on his face.Even he couldn't imagine what Jing Hongchen, a soul master, wanted to do when he went to Shrek.

Fortunately, his subordinates did not let him have too many doubts, but continued: "According to Elder Ma, the National Preceptor once came into contact with the soul guide circulated in a shop in Shrek City. And he was quickly attracted by the design and structure of the soul guide. Now, he may have gone to Shrek City to visit that shop."

Although his words were very tactful, both he and Xu Tianran knew that Jing Hongchen did not go there with good intentions this time, and it was very possible that he wanted to steal the other party's soul guide design drawings.

After all, the Sun Moon Empire was able to compete with the three major empires of the original Douluo Continent plus Shrek Academy because of its soul guide technology that far surpassed theirs.If they were to overtake the soul guide in this aspect, the consequences would be disastrous.

Even if there is just a slight hint, they will never allow it.

but……

"Shrek actually has soul guidance technology that is worthy of the Imperial Master's personal visit? Aren't they, the orthodox soul masters, the most repulsive to soul guidance tools? Or, have they been hiding it all this time and only revealed it now? Any clue?"

Before Xu Tianran could think too much, rapid footsteps suddenly sounded outside the palace.

"His Royal Highness, please secretly ask for an audience."

"An Yi? He's not..."

After being stunned for a moment, Xu Tianran frowned slightly, but still waved his hand and asked the intelligence personnel below to leave first. After everyone left the palace, he ordered the secret guards he had trained to come in.

Stepping into the door, An Yi quickly came to Xu Tianran without even having time to salute, knelt on the ground, and said: "Your Highness, not long ago, the grandson of the Imperial Master seemed to feel something and suddenly entered We arrived at a secret room. After I sneaked in there, I got a piece of information..."

Slowly raising his head, he looked at Xu Tianran, who had a solemn expression, and said word by word: "Jing Hongchen, the master of Mingde Hall, he is dead!"

"what?!"

When Xu Tianran heard such news, his first feeling was absurd.As a ninth-level soul mentor, Jing Hongchen is one of the strongest beings in the entire Sun and Moon Empire.In addition, he is in charge of Mingdetang, so even if Extreme Douluo takes action, he should be able to escape.

But what appeared in front of him now was one of his most trusted secret guards.In addition, such information is of great importance, and there is no use in falsifying it. As long as Jing Hongchen comes back, any conspiracy will be solved.so……

"National Master...is he really dead?!"

Taking a deep breath, Xu Tianran slowly leaned back on the seat. After the shock and absurdity in his heart disappeared, his first reaction was actually joy from the bottom of his heart.

As the crown prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, and the emperor was seriously ill, it was almost certain that he would take over the throne.The only uncertain factors are those "good brothers" and Sun Moon Imperial Master, Jing Hongchen, who has not expressed his stance for a long time.

As the national advisor of the Sun and Moon Empire, Jing Hongchen could almost be said to be a giant. Stomping his feet in the court hall, the Sun and Moon Empire could tremble three times.After such an uncertain factor disappears, it will be impossible for those "good brothers" to turn around.

Thinking of this, the corner of Xu Tianran's mouth evoked a chill. "In this case... An Yi, you sent someone to publicize the matter. There is no way you can let those two little guys hide such a big thing. After all, I am very jealous of Mingdetang's huge foundation. ."

"But don't take action now. Wait until the matter spreads, so as to appease them and win people's hearts. Everything can only be done after the matter has become a foregone conclusion."

"at last……"

At this point, Xu Tianran paused for a moment, and then said with a solemn expression: "Go and investigate how Jing Hongchen died!"
