After a moment's thought, Chu Qinghe turned to look at Li Chunfeng.

Meeting Chu Qinghe's gaze, Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "That's right! The Second Prince and the Third Prince are indeed from the same mother. However, compared to the Third Prince and the Crown Prince, the Second Prince is indifferent to fame and fortune, and prefers martial arts to power. He is an absolute martial arts fanatic and has spent nearly ten years in both the Dao Wen Sect and the Fa Hua Sect."

"With his master's status, the Second Prince would indeed find it easier to persuade the Fahua Sect and the Daowen Sect."

After receiving confirmation from Li Chunfeng, Chu Qinghe chuckled to himself.

"Indifferent to fame and fortune? Interesting."

Taking in Chu Qinghe's expression, Li Chunfeng hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Does the young master believe that the Second Prince harbors malicious intentions?"

Chu Qinghe raised his eyes slightly and asked, "Don't you have such thoughts?"

Li Chunfeng hesitated for a moment when faced with Chu Qinghe's question.

There are no useless snakes in the emperor's house.

Born into royalty, of noble birth, their upbringing was extraordinary. Even with a kind heart, they were inevitably drawn into the vortex of power by various people.

To maintain the persona of a martial arts fanatic from childhood to adulthood and have everyone believe it, one must either be simple-minded.

Or, they are people who are extremely cunning and calculating.

However, even Li Chunfeng wouldn't dare say he could persuade various martial arts factions across the land, including those that have existed for tens of thousands of years like the Fahua Sect and the Daowen Sect, all on his own.

But the second prince was able to do it.

Furthermore, he managed to remain unscathed amidst the power struggle between the Crown Prince and the Third Prince.

Based on these two points, Li Chunfeng was even more certain that the Second Prince was not as simple as ordinary people thought.

However, some things lacked evidence and could not be verified, so Li Chunfeng dared not speculate in that direction.

Taking in Li Chunfeng's expression, Yaoyue said, "If what you're saying is true, then the Second Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty is very likely the one who caused the current power struggle between the Crown Prince and the Third Prince? And he will pose an even greater threat to us in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "It's just so-so!"

Even if the Second Prince is indeed harboring malicious intentions as Chu Qinghe is now speculating, the fact that he tries to hide behind the scenes and secretly instigate the struggle between the Crown Prince and the Third Prince is enough to show that the Second Prince's background is at most comparable to that of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince.

Based on the information currently available, the powerful figures behind this second prince are unlikely to exceed those within the Great Xia Dynasty.

With Chu Qinghe's current strength, he no longer poses any trouble.

After thinking it over, Chu Qinghe turned his gaze to Bai Wansheng on the ground.

The next second, as Chu Qinghe's spiritual energy burst forth, the sword energy that Chu Qinghe had previously injected into Bai Wansheng's body was instantly activated.

In an instant, bursts of sword energy erupted from within.

Even the remaining sword energy pierced through Zhou Wanfeng, who had fallen to the ground next to Bai Wansheng.

After their bodies were pierced by nearly a hundred sword energies, Bai Wansheng and Zhou Wanfeng shuddered violently and then slowly went limp.

Their breathing and heartbeats stopped abruptly, and only blood continued to flow from their wounds, staining the soil beneath them red.

After the two died, Chu Qinghe said slowly, "It's good. I was worried that Zhou Wanfeng alone wouldn't be enough, and that we might not attract enough experts from the Great Xia Dynasty. But I didn't expect the Great Xia Dynasty to send in someone of sufficient importance."

"But when you're sleepy, there's always a pillow."

Jellyfish Yin Ji raised an eyebrow and said, "You want to use Bai Wansheng as bait to lure the experts of the Great Xia Dynasty into the Nine Provinces?"

Chu Qinghe nodded and said, "More or less!"

Yaoyue frowned and said, "If you're going to use him as bait, why kill him?"

Chu Qinghe said casually, "The bait can be found anywhere in the Nine Provinces. Whether it lives or dies is not important."

Upon hearing this, the others couldn't understand what Chu Qinghe meant.

The next second, Chu Qinghe turned his head to look at Li Chunfeng and said, "According to Bai Wansheng, we can only stay in the Nine Provinces for a maximum of five months before we need to return to the Divine Land. If Bai Wansheng fails to return to the Great Xia Dynasty after five months, the people of the Great Xia Dynasty will also notice."

"Since Bai Wansheng's men can't go back, let Bai Wansheng's message be sent back. You should know how to handle the specifics, right?"

Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "I will make the arrangements later. Five months later, I will have someone secretly send a message to the Third Prince, explaining that the dragon vein in the Nine Provinces is about to be successfully conceived, and that I have already submitted to the Third Prince. In order to prevent the Crown Prince from getting there first, the Third Prince only needs to lead experts at the Void Breaking Realm into the Nine Provinces to obtain the Dragon Soul, thereby becoming the True Dragon Emperor."

"Afterwards, I will secretly send someone to confirm the time difference and send the same message to the Crown Prince, so that the two groups can enter the land of Kyushu one after the other."

Therefore, it is relatively easy to talk to smart people.

Just like Li Chunfeng now, Li Chunfeng was able to understand Chu Qinghe's meaning immediately.

Seeing this, Chu Qinghe nodded and said, "At the end of the year, I will go to Jiuyun Mountain to make some preparations and wait for the rabbit to come to me."

Li Chunfeng cupped his hands and said, "Li Chunfeng understands, please rest assured, young master."

After saying this, Li Chunfeng bowed to Yaoyue and Shuimu Yinji before quickly moving towards the Qin Kingdom.

After Li Chunfeng left, Chu Qinghe raised his hand and unleashed two sword energies.

After the corpse-dissolving water, enveloped in the two sword energies, completely dissolved the two corpses and even the blood on the ground, Chu Qinghe nodded in satisfaction.
