Chapter 316: Chapter 207: Yan Xizhao Emerges from Seclusion, Attains the Fifth Realm (Part 2)

Upon hearing these words, the women all shivered with fear.

Being unacquainted with such worldly affairs, it was inevitable they would think of ghostly tales when confronted with this matter.

"Then... what should we do?"

"Quickly, let’s send the Commandery Princess home. Perhaps she’ll recover as soon as she returns to the Prince’s Mansion."

Amidst their panic, Zhao Ya, Shang Luoluo, and Zui’Er were on their way home.

Throughout the journey, Shang Luoluo remained silent, keeping her head down as she walked.

Zui’Er tried to speak several times but was stopped by Zhao Ya’s glance.

Not until they entered Guangde Square, did Shang Luoluo softly say, "Thank you for helping me out."

"No need for thanks. Besides, I didn’t really do much, just spoke a few truths," Zhao Ya replied with a smile.

Zui’Er also comforted her, "Luoluo, don’t be mad. As Ya said, those people are just like a pile of stinking dog poop, not worth getting upset over."

"I’m not mad." Shang Luoluo raised her head, a self-mocking smile on her face.

"Because I’ve grown used to it."

As she spoke, she looked up at the warm morning sun in the sky, and said calmly.

"You must all wonder why, even though Yan Fei treats me like that, I never resist. It doesn’t seem like my character, does it?"

Zui’Er nodded, answering honestly, "Yes."

"The reason is simple, because her father is a member of the royal family of Great Yan, currently the most powerful prince in court. If I offend her, my father’s position would be at risk."

Zui’Er was astonished, "Just because of that?"

"It sounds incredible, but it’s true. You don’t know my father, he’s something of a careerist. If he lost his position because of this, he wouldn’t bear it, so I have to endure," Shang Luoluo said lightly.

Zui’Er nodded, as someone with a simple mind she naturally didn’t think too much. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But Zhao Ya, looking at the outwardly relaxed Shang Luoluo, knew it couldn’t be that simple.

Yet he didn’t ask, because if Shang Luoluo wanted to say it, she would do so without being prompted.

Since she didn’t speak, it proved she had her own reasons.

The three of them returned home.

As expected, Shang Jingchuan wasn’t home, having gone early to court to pay respects to the Great Yan King.

Zhao Ya spoke to Zui’Er and Shang Luoluo, then headed out alone.

This time, he didn’t plan to go to Changping Square, for after the events of last night he realized it was extremely difficult to find someone in such a vast Capital City with his own strength.

Furthermore, finding Mo Qi wasn’t an urgent task.

So he decided to take care of another matter first.

The Yun Family hadn’t shown any movement, and it would probably take Yun Yuan a couple of days to handle things before there was any news, so Zhao Ya didn’t plan to disturb him.

After all, he couldn’t just run away, and the promised twenty thousand taels of gold notes would have to be given sooner or later.

What Zhao Ya planned to do was another matter: to gather and organize information about He Town at the Four Seas Gang’s periphery.

Previously at Yingtai County, he had killed the Vice Gang Leader of the Four Seas Gang, expecting a generous reward but was greatly disappointed.

Aside from a few small-denomination gold notes, there were only some common remedies carried by Jianghu individuals for injuries.

Besides that, there was nothing of value.

Although this was common, the items on He Town were indeed too few, not fitting the image of a vice leader of a major Capital City gang.

Later Zhao Ya realized, He Town had obviously been commissioned by someone to ambush Yun Yuan in Yingtai County.

Under such circumstances, he couldn’t possibly carry anything valuable on him.

For people like him, they certainly have their own secret bases in the city, and the truly valuable items would likely be stored there.

Although not sure if he could find it, it was worth a try, as finding it would certainly yield a huge fortune.

Additionally, Zhao Ya wanted to see what the Four Seas Gang was all about and assess its strength.

After all, He Town’s death at his hands would eventually come to light, and by that time, he’d be at odds with the Four Seas Gang. Understanding them in advance would help in preparing.

The Four Seas Gang wasn’t difficult to locate.

Its headquarters, the Four Seas Building, was situated in Anshan Square of South City.

As Zhao Ya planned to head to Anshan Square to gather intelligence, a group of women were rushing to Prince Qi’s Mansion in Xiu De Square beneath the Imperial City.

Upon arriving at the Mansion’s gate, the fastest-running woman, gasping and breathless, spoke.

"Something’s wrong, the... the Commandery Princess is possessed!"

In an instant, the entire Prince’s Mansion was in turmoil.

Although Prince Qi had many children, his most favored was this youngest daughter, Yan Fei.

Now that something had abruptly happened to her, one could imagine everyone’s fear.

Finally, Yan Fei, stiff and speechless, was carried out of the carriage and carried towards the inner residence like lumber.

Because it was an unsightly scene, a thoughtful maid covered Yan Fei with a piece of clothing to shield her face.

When Yan Fei’s mother, Princess Consort Qi, arrived upon hearing the news, she saw her daughter’s face already covered, causing her to fall to the ground in shock and then burst into tears.

"Oh my child, you were fine when you left, how did you come back like this?"

Thankfully, someone beside her explained, and Princess Consort Qi learned her daughter wasn’t dead, only possessed.
