After hearing Lu Chen’s words, Lin Wanyun couldn’t help but ask, “Prince, I heard that North City only has thirty thousand soldiers, yet you said that the Barbarian Tribe has sent an army of three hundred thousand to march south. Can North City’s thirty thousand soldiers hold against an army of three hundred thousand?”

Hearing this question, Lu Chen displayed a fearless demeanor, “Even if we can’t hold them, we must try. 1 am the Prince of North City, if even the land of North City were to be lost, then could 1 still call myself the Prince of North City, the Seignior of Great Sum? How would 1 have the face to return to the Capital City to see my father, the Sum Emperor, or face the common people of North City!”

This…

Chen Wanrong and Lin Wanyun found what Lu Chen said to be unbelievable upon hearing his words.

This surely didn’t seem like the North Prince they both knew, did it?

At this moment, Chu Yuqin was looking at Lu Chen with a resentful expression on her face. She was no fool and immediately noticed that Lu Chen was putting on a performance for Chen Wanrong and Lin Wanyun.

Although Lu Chen indeed possessed such boldness and was truly planning to resist the southward march of the Barbarian Tribe at Yan County, Lu Chen typically didn’t talk like this, nor would he act so exaggeratedly.

His righteous and dignified demeanor was clearly a performance for those girls-

What did this imply? It implied that Lu Chen had taken an interest in the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace and wanted to show off in front of her, to demonstrate his manly valor.

In fact, Chu Yuqin overlooked one point—Lu Chen was not only performing for Chen Wanrong’s sake; he was equally interested in Lin Wanyun.

Chen Wanrong raised her eyebrows slightly at this time, falling into thought.

Originally, she thought that this trip to North City would be an easy execution of their plan, but they hadn’t anticipated so many unexpected developments. First, they encountered the Sum Emperor’s Shadow Guard while entering the city, and now they’ve discovered that the North Prince is nothing like the man they had in their minds.

It seemed that using the Love Worm on the North Prince wouldn’t be an easy task either.

In any case, they would have to wait until after the invasion of the Barbarian Tribe was repelled.

But if the North Prince insisted on a fight to the death with the Barbarian Tribe at Yan County, then the likelihood of the North Prince dying in battle was quite high.

If the North Prince died, they wouldn’t be able to use his blood to create the Subtle Dragon Spell anymore.

Could it be that they would have to give up on the North Prince?

At this time, Lu Chen said to Lin Wanyun with a smile, “Madam Lin, why don’t you and Madam Chu travel south to Anping City in a few days? Once 1 repel the invasion of the Barbarian Tribe, if you wish to travel around North City, you can come back then.”

“I will be sure to treat you both well.”

Lu Chen was very confident in the effects of the Dragon and Phoenix Tea. Under its influence, he believed that Chen Wanrong and Lin Wanyun would surely return to Yan County.

Besides, they still needed his blood to create that Subtle Dragon Spell; their goals had not yet been met, so they couldn’t possibly leave North City just like that.

This made Lu Chen think of a sentence that had flashed in his mind when he was dealing with Wang Qingci.

The hunter often appears in the guise of the prey!

At the moment, he might seem like prey, but once the crisis with the Barbarian Tribe was resolved, he would immediately turn into the hunter.

Lin Wanyun didn’t respond to Lu Chen’s words and instead turned her head to look at Chen Wanrong. As the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, it was up to her to make a decision.

Chen Wanrong said expressionlessly, “Fine.”

Under the current circumstances, it indeed was no longer suitable to stay in Yan County.

Actually, Chen Wanrong was also contemplating whether they should take advantage of the Barbarian Tribe invasion to fake the North Prince’s death and then kidnap him to the Mysterious Moon Palace. Then, they could use his blood to slowly create the Subtle Dragon Spell.

But she quickly discarded that idea, as the North Prince was still a Prince after all. Even if they managed to fake his death, it was very possible that someone might notice something amiss.

If the Sum Emperor found out that the Mysterious Moon Palace had kidnapped a Prince, it could potentially alert the Sum Emperor.

Of course, that wasn’t the most critical point; the most crucial aspect was that this might precipitate a conflict between the Great Sum and the Mysterious Moon Palace before the Subtle Dragon Spell was created.

Unlike the Aristocratic Families of Great Sum or the imperial court’s officials, the Mysterious Moon Palace was well aware of what the bottom line of the Sum Emperor was. Before they could break through that bottom line, the Mysterious Moon Palace would definitely not take the risk of confronting the Sum Emperor head-on.

To outsiders, the Sum Emperor was nothing more than a Grandmaster, but the Mysterious Moon Palace was well aware of his terror. Now that one of the Sacred Artifacts of the Mysterious Moon Palace had fallen into the hands of the Sum Emperor because of Chu Yue, they were even less of a match for him.

All the powers within the territory of Great Sum dreaded the State Preceptor Situ Ce, but only the Mysterious Moon Palace regarded the Sum Emperor as their true adversary.

After hearing Chen Wanrong’s words, Lu Chen stood up and said, “Then Madam Chu, Madam Lin, Miss Chen, please continue your conversation at your leisure. 1 shall take my leave now, so as not to disturb you further.”

With that, Lu Chen turned and left the pavilion.

Once Lu Chen had left, Lin Wanyun immediately took Chu Yuqin’s hand and said, “Yuqin, everyone outside is saying that the North Prince is an ignorant lecher, but why do 1 feel like he isn’t that kind of person?”

Hearing that, Chu Yuqin said with a smile, “After Chen’er arrived in North City, he has matured quite a bit. Maybe it is because he saw the hardships of the people’s lives that he was inspired to feel a sense of responsibility in his heart.”

“As for his being licentious…”

Chu Yuqin paused mid-sentence and then continued,

“I don’t think any man is without lust, and 1 don’t see anything wrong with Chen’er being lustful.”

“If he weren’t lustful, how would he be able to carry on his lineage?”

Hearing Chu Yuqin’s words, Lin Wanyun felt somewhat doubtful in her heart. Had the North Prince really changed after coming to North City?

But how had they heard that after the North Prince arrived in North City, he kept a bevy of beautiful concubines in his mansion, indulging in hedonistic pleasures day and night, with no regard for the life or death of his subjects?

However, now was not the time to be tangled up in these matters.

At the moment, Chu Yuqin gave Chen Wanrong, who was quietly sitting aside, a once-over. Chen Wanrong’s beauty blended into the surroundings, and just one glance could make a person feel delighted.

Chu Yuqin couldn’t help but reflect inwardly: It’s no wonder she is the Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace; it’s also no wonder that little rascal was staring at her all the time.

Unfortunately…

The Palace Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace could not simply marry someone off; that little rascal could only watch, without any chance to touch.

At this time, Lin Wanyun said with a smile, “Yuqin, could you talk to me about what has happened in the Capital city over these past years? It has been a long while since I returned to the Capital city.”

Chu Yuqin replied, “Of course.”

Then, the two beautiful women sat side by side, chatting intimately in earnest.

In the evening.

A woman in black, holding a Longsword, appeared at the entrance of the North Prince Mansion.

Seeing someone at the gate of the mansion with a sword, the trusted aides of the mansion immediately surrounded her.

“Who goes there!” they demanded.

The woman did not move. In a chilling tone, she said, “I seek Madam Chu.”

Upon hearing this, the soldiers looked at one another, unsure of how to proceed.

Then, the team captain said, “Please wait, Miss. 1 will notify Madam Chu immediately.”

Since two women had visited the mansion earlier in the day, the team captain, fearing that this woman was also a guest of the mansion, quickly entered the mansion to report to Chu Yuqin.

Upon hearing that another woman had arrived at the gate, Chu Yuqin was suddenly filled with confusion.

What was going on today?

Why were all the visitors arriving at once?
