"But if no one takes the initiative to send the people of the Xia Dynasty into the Dragon Soul for recuperation and nurturing, things will become much more complicated."

After a brief pause, Zhou Wanfeng continued, "The fate of the nation concerns the rise and fall of the entire Xia Dynasty. It is of utmost importance and cannot tolerate even the slightest oversight. If the Xia Dynasty is still stable, even knowing this method would be risky."

When asked by the Jellyfish Valley faction, Zhou Wanfeng quickly replied, "I did receive a message afterward, informing me that General Zhou had delivered the message to the Xia Dynasty, but it was unclear whether the message was sent to the Crown Prince or the Eighth Prince."

Meeting the gazes of the group, Yang Longhun said calmly, "Waiting for the people of the Xia Dynasty to absorb the dragon soul, and then using the national fortune of the Xia Dynasty to nurture Li Chunfeng, would take too long, so you plan to slow down that process a bit."

Yang Longhun said calmly, "If I were to be completely honest and not hide anything, that would be even more suspicious."

As soon as he uttered those words, General Zhou's inner energy suddenly surged forth.

"Therefore, I would like to trouble Chu Qinghe to convey this matter to His Highness the Eighth Prince. If this matter can be accomplished, it will be a small achievement for Chu Qinghe, is that right?"

As Zhou Wanfeng looked directly at General Zhou, he hurriedly said, "It's just a matter of taking precautions. After all, Chu Qinghe is someone that the Imperial Court has arranged to monitor you and Yuan Tiangang in those four small states, so we naturally have to be careful."

As if she had just thought of something, Yi Zhen asked, "Does he want to break away from the Xia Dynasty?"

Having planned and managed for a thousand years, the people of Guiyanyi and Zhou Wanfeng naturally had extraordinary thoughts.

Yi Zhen said, "You just wanted me to pretend that there was no other way to successfully nurture the dragon vein, and then take the opportunity to confirm whether General Zhou was a man of the Crown Prince or the Eighth Prince."

At this point, Zhou Wanfeng nodded and said, "I'm not prepared for anything bad yet. I will bury that stone into the dragon vein shortly, but..."

Considering the role and importance of the dragon vein, the eighth prince of the Xia Dynasty might be tempted.

Zhou Wanfeng responded, "Let's wait and see. As for the specifics, Yi Zhen needs to go back and talk to the Eighth Prince first. If we can get a definite answer, then we can discuss it later."

Before he came to his senses, Zhou Wanfeng's true essence circulated within his body, and streams of heaven and earth power gathered as Yi Zhen made her hand seals.

What surprised Zhou Wanfeng was that the Dragon Soul had come up with the method of feeding back in such a short time.

Then Zhou Wanfeng spoke up, "Now that we've laid our cards on the table, there's no point in hiding it anymore."

Upon hearing Zhou Wanfeng's words, General Zhou's eyes narrowed sharply behind his mask.

After saying that, Yang Longhun raised his left hand again, and with his seven fingers bent, he sucked the stone in Zhou Wanfeng's hand into his own.

Suddenly, the Jellyfish Valley Sect member looked at Zhou Wanfeng and said, "It seems from Mr. Guo's conversation with General Zhou that he already knew that Yan Yizhen was a person of the Eighth Prince of the Xia Dynasty!"

If you want to use people, you naturally need to give them what they want.

A few breaths ago, General Zhou spoke up: "If it's a transaction, why seek out the Eighth Prince instead of the Crown Prince?"

Before the dragon soul was separated and injected into the stone, the dragon soul nurtured the stone and then threw it to Zhou Wanfeng.

Zhou Wanfeng asked in a fascinating tone, "Since Chu Qinghe has also chosen to side with the Eighth Prince, what are the specific reasons? Is Chu Qinghe still being vague about them?"

After a long pause and some thought, Yi Zhen replied, "You are in charge of that matter. Before you go back, you will send out the message so that the Eighth Prince can make a decision."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wanfeng's expression immediately changed, and a look of understanding appeared in his eyes.

The implication is that the subsequent conversation between Yi Zhen and General Zhou is related to raising the dragon soul.

When General Zhou flew into a rage, Zhou Wanfeng remained unchanged, his expression shifting, no longer displaying the composure one would show in the face of a collapsing mountain.

Once he had the stone in his hand, Yanglonghun closed his eyes and focused his attention on his own body.

"That method involves injecting the national fortune of the Xia Dynasty into the accompanying dragon vein stone, and using the national fortune of the Xia Dynasty in conjunction with your secret technique, Guiyin Ji, to allow the dragon vein to slowly develop."

Zhou Wanfeng said, "It's just to protect himself."

"Um?"

Zhou Wanfeng said, "You, Gui Yinji, have served the Xia Dynasty for a thousand years. Is a thousand years of effort, plus the dragon vein, enough to buy you Gui Yanyi's freedom?"

As the dragon soul was injected into the stone, the stone, which was already black and flawed, lost a layer of fluorescence, and a purple haze appeared in the center, making it look particularly peculiar.

Before Zhou Wanfeng left, Dongfang Shibai said, "Judging from my conversation with Yan Yizhen afterward, I still didn't hold back with him."

His gaze swept over Zhou Wanfeng's lower body behind him, and recalling the fluctuations in spiritual energy within Yi Zhen's body afterward, Dongfang Shibai asked, "Did he make me say those things just now?"

Zhou Wanfeng nodded and said, "In that case, I will inform you again, young master, until I receive further news."

Yi Zhen paused for a moment upon hearing this.

Knowing what Zhou Wanfeng was thinking, Yang Longhun said, "Let's see how General Zhou reacts first! This is not an experiment. If it succeeds, it will be bad, but even if it succeeds, it will be a loss for you."

Before taking the stone thrown by the Dragon Soul, Zhou Wanfeng infused it with the power of heaven and earth and felt it.

The method of cultivating dragon souls and using national fortune to influence Li Chunfeng is not difficult to understand; it is merely an attempt to lure them with benefits.

Immediately afterward, following a complex discussion, Zhou Wanfeng circulated his true essence and moved towards Gao Shi.
