Despite his repeated defeats, Murong Xuan did not abandon his ambitions. Instead, he secretly plotted an even more insidious scheme. He knew that a direct external attack would not be enough to break through Xiao Yichen's carefully constructed defenses in Rong Kingdom. Therefore, he turned his attention to the internal workings of Rong Kingdom, attempting to collude with opposing forces to undermine Xiao Yichen's power from the ground up. A new conspiracy quietly unfolded over Rong Kingdom like a dark cloud.

Deep within the palace of the Mu Kingdom, Murong Xuan, his face grim, summoned his trusted advisor. The flickering candlelight illuminated the hatred distorting his expression. "I can no longer sit idly by and await my doom. As long as Xiao Yichen remains unpunished, the Rong Kingdom will remain unconquered. Tell me, are there any individuals or forces within the Rong Kingdom that can be of use?" His voice was low and icy, as if it came from hell.

The strategist bowed slightly, a sly glint in his eyes: "Your Highness, although Rong Kingdom appears united, it is not a monolithic entity. According to my secret investigations, some nobles and officials harbor jealousy and resentment towards Xiao Yichen's rise. Although their voice in court is suppressed by Xiao Yichen's faction, they still have a certain power base. If we can win these people over, we can stir up quite a storm within Rong Kingdom."

Murong Xuan nodded slightly, a cruel smile playing on his lips: "Very well. You shall begin this matter immediately, offering them great benefits and power, so that they may serve me. I will put Xiao Yichen in a predicament both internally and externally."

"Yes, Your Highness." The strategist accepted the order and left, then secretly infiltrated Rong Kingdom to launch a covert operation of recruitment and collusion.

In a luxurious mansion in the capital of Rong Kingdom, a nobleman named Lord Wang sat alone in his study, his brow furrowed and his face full of worry. He was originally a long-established nobleman of Rong Kingdom and had once enjoyed great prestige in the court, but since Xiao Yichen appeared, his status and power had been gradually weakened, and he had long harbored deep resentment towards Xiao Yichen.

At this moment, Murong Xuan's strategist quietly infiltrated the residence to request an audience with Lord Wang. Upon meeting Lord Wang, the strategist went straight to the point: "Lord Wang, my prince has witnessed your plight in Rong Kingdom. Now that Xiao Yichen holds power, Rong Kingdom is no longer the Rong Kingdom it once was. Are you truly willing to be suppressed by him like this?"

Lord Wang's heart skipped a beat, but he still asked warily, "Who are you? Why are you telling me this?"

The strategist smiled slightly and took out a secret letter and a box of precious jewels from his bosom: "My lord, I am a confidant of Prince Murong Xuan of the Mu Kingdom. His Highness has long admired your name and has specially ordered me to come and discuss cooperation with you. If you are willing to cooperate with the Mu Kingdom to overthrow Xiao Yichen's rule, this box of jewels will serve as a deposit. After the matter is accomplished, His Highness will also promise you a higher official position and more fiefdoms."

Lord Wang looked at the jewels and secret letter before him, his heart filled with intense struggle. On one hand, he knew that colluding with Murong Xuan was an act of treason, and if discovered, he would surely be disgraced; on the other hand, his resentment towards Xiao Yichen and his desire for power were constantly tempting him.

Finally, driven by self-interest, Lord Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I will cooperate with you. But you must guarantee that you will keep your promise after the matter is completed."

The strategist was overjoyed: "Rest assured, my lord, my prince's word is law."

In this way, Murong Xuan's strategist successfully won over Lord Wang, and then colluded with some officials and nobles who were dissatisfied with Xiao Yichen, quietly forming an opposition force within the Rong Kingdom.

They began spreading rumors in the shadows to slander Xiao Yichen and his supporters.

"Have you heard? The reason Xiao Yichen is so actively fighting against the Mu Kingdom is not for the sake of the Rong Kingdom, but for his own selfish desires. He wants to accumulate merits in the war and then seize the throne."

"Yes, he has an ambiguous relationship with that witch Lin Wan'er. Perhaps he wants to use her sorcery to control the entire Rong Kingdom."

These rumors spread like poisonous fog throughout Rong Kingdom's capital, causing some uninformed citizens and low-ranking officials to begin to doubt and resent Xiao Yichen.

Meanwhile, this opposition force was also secretly sabotaging Rong's military defenses and logistical supplies. They infiltrated military camps, damaged weapons and equipment, and burned down grain depots, causing Rong's army to encounter numerous difficulties in training and preparation for war.

Xiao Yichen quickly noticed the unusual situation in the country. He discovered that the army's equipment was inexplicably damaged, food supplies were frequently in short supply, and rumors about him were spreading throughout the capital, with the people looking at him with increasing suspicion.

“Mr. Chen, this is no accident. Someone must be up to something.” Xiao Yichen said to Chen Feng with a solemn expression.

Chen Feng nodded in agreement: "Young Master, I also feel that there is something fishy about this matter. We need to find out the truth as soon as possible and find out the mastermind behind it, otherwise Rong Kingdom will fall into chaos."

Xiao Yichen pondered for a moment and said, "Go and investigate who in the capital has been behaving strangely lately, especially those nobles and officials who are dissatisfied with me. I'll go find Miss Lin Wan'er; perhaps her mind-reading ability can help us."

Afterwards, Xiao Yichen went to Lin Wan'er's residence and informed her of the situation in the country. Lin Wan'er frowned slightly upon hearing this: "Young Master Xiao, I also sense an evil aura permeating the capital. I will use my mind-reading ability to investigate."

Lin Wan'er closed her eyes, concentrated, and began to use her mind-reading ability to perceive the inner thoughts of those around her. Her mental power, like invisible threads, traversed the streets and alleys of the capital, searching for conspiracies and betrayals hidden among the people.

A moment later, Lin Wan'er opened her eyes, her face slightly pale: "Young Master Xiao, I have discovered some clues. Some nobles and officials are filled with resentment and conspiracy against you, and they seem to be colluding with Murong Xuan. Among them, Lord Wang is the most suspicious. I sensed a strong ambition and hostility towards you in his heart."

Xiao Yichen's eyes turned cold: "Lord Wang? Hmph, I should have expected him to make a move. Miss Lin, thank you. Let's go and meet him now."

Xiao Yichen, accompanied by Lin Wan'er and a troop of soldiers, arrived at Lord Wang's residence. Lord Wang was startled by Xiao Yichen's sudden arrival, but maintained his composure: "Young Master Xiao, what brings you here today?"

Xiao Yichen looked at him coldly: "Lord Wang, do I need to spell out what you've done?"

Lord Wang panicked, but still vehemently denied it: "Young Master Xiao, what do you mean by that? I don't understand."

Lin Wan'er stepped forward and used her mind-reading ability to say, "Lord Wang, you colluded with Murong Xuan to spread rumors within Rong Kingdom, sabotaging military defenses and logistical supplies. Did you think you could get away with this?"

Upon hearing Lin Wan'er's words, Lord Wang's face turned deathly pale, realizing his scheme had been exposed. He suddenly pulled a dagger from his robes and charged at Xiao Yichen: "Xiao Yichen, you forced me to this! Today is your death day!"

Xiao Yichen was prepared and easily dodged Lord Wang's attack by sidestepping. He swung his sword backhand, knocking the dagger from Lord Wang's hand, and then held the sword to Lord Wang's neck: "Lord Wang, you have betrayed your country and surrendered to the enemy, your crime is unforgivable."

Lord Wang collapsed to the ground and closed his eyes in despair.

Xiao Yichen successfully averted the internal crisis by capturing Lord Wang and his accomplices. However, he knew that Murong Xuan's schemes would not end there, and he would need to remain vigilant to safeguard the peace and tranquility of the Rong Kingdom.

In the Kingdom of Mu, Murong Xuan was furious upon learning that his conspiracy within the kingdom had failed once again: "Xiao Yichen, what abilities do you have? I refuse to believe that I cannot kill you!"

His advisor cautiously said, "Your Highness, do not be discouraged. We still have a chance. I have heard that in the distant Western Regions, there is a mysterious power. If we can obtain it, it may help Your Highness defeat Xiao Yichen."

Murong Xuan's eyes lit up: "Oh? Mysterious power? Tell me about it in detail."

The strategist slowly said, "Your Highness, legend has it that there is an ancient ruin in the Western Regions, within which lies a powerful magical treasure. Whoever possesses this treasure will gain extraordinary power, becoming invincible whether manipulating people's hearts or conquering battlefields. However, the ruin is filled with dangers and traps, and is guarded by mysterious guardians, making it no easy task to obtain the treasure."

Murong Xuan pondered for a moment, a determined look appearing in his eyes: "No matter how difficult it is, I will give it a try. Issue the order to select a group of elite warriors to accompany me to the Western Regions to explore that mysterious ruin. I will definitely obtain the treasure and return to settle accounts with Xiao Yichen!"

"Yes, Your Highness." The strategist accepted the order and left, while Murong Xuan began preparing for his expedition to the Western Regions. A new adventure and crisis were about to unfold on the mysterious land of the Western Regions, which would have a profound impact on the fate of Xiao Yichen and the Rong Kingdom.

Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er sensed danger and knew that if they didn't quickly uncover the details of Murong Xuan's collusion with the opposition forces in Rong Kingdom, Rong Kingdom would fall into an even deeper crisis. Therefore, they acted swiftly, arranging for personnel to gather intelligence, thus beginning a silent intelligence war.

Xiao Yichen first summoned his most trusted subordinates, all of whom were elite individuals with extensive experience in intelligence gathering and covert investigation. In a secluded chamber within the general's mansion, candlelight flickered, and the atmosphere was heavy. Xiao Yichen's face was cold and resolute as he surveyed the crowd with unwavering eyes. He slowly began to speak: "Gentlemen, Murong Xuan is currently colluding with some opposing forces within our Rong Kingdom, intending to undermine us from within. We must ascertain the details of their collusion as quickly as possible, including the individuals involved, their conspiracy, and their methods of communication. This concerns the very survival of the Rong Kingdom; there is no room for error."

Everyone looked serious and replied in unison, "Rest assured, young master, we will do our utmost!"

Xiao Yichen nodded slightly and continued, "You will be divided into several groups, each approaching the matter from a different angle. One group will be responsible for monitoring nobles and officials suspected of having dealings with Murong Xuan, recording their every move, including the people they meet and their correspondence; another group will delve into the streets and alleys of the capital to investigate whether any suspicious individuals are secretly spreading rumors or engaging in sabotage. If discovered, immediately track them down and ascertain their identities; and yet another group will disguise themselves and infiltrate the border of the Murong Kingdom to observe the movements of Murong Xuan's army, looking for any new military deployments or troop movements, as well as any signs of contact with the opposition forces of the Murong Kingdom."

"Yes, young master!" The group accepted the order and quickly disappeared into the night.

Lin Wan'er said from the side, "Young Master Xiao, I can also use mind-reading to assist in intelligence gathering in the capital. I will focus on those suspected officials and nobles and their associates, and perhaps I can get some useful information from their minds."

Xiao Yichen looked at her gratefully: "Miss Lin, with your help, this intelligence gathering will definitely be twice as effective. However, using mind-reading will consume a lot of your energy, so you must also take care of your own safety."

Lin Wan'er gently shook her head: "Young Master Xiao need not worry. For the sake of Rong Kingdom, I will do my utmost."

In the days that followed, Rong Kingdom appeared calm on the surface, but undercurrents were surging beneath. Various intelligence teams, like ghosts lurking in the shadows, silently carried out their missions.

The team responsible for monitoring noble officials lay in wait day and night around the residences of their targets. They disguised themselves in various ways—some as street vendors, some as passersby, some even as beggars—blending seamlessly into their surroundings and remaining inconspicuous. With keen eyes, they observed those entering and leaving the residences, recording every detail.

One of the team members noticed that a steward at Lord Wang's residence often went out alone late at night, his movements suspicious. He followed the steward's route and discovered he had arrived at an abandoned manor on the outskirts of the capital. The manor appeared long abandoned, but there were some guards secretly patrolling the area. The team member cautiously approached the manor, found a secluded spot to hide, and observed the activity within.

The manor was dimly lit, and Lord Wang was talking in hushed tones with several unfamiliar men. The team member strained his ears, trying to hear their conversation, but the distance was too great, and he could only catch snippets of words. He was anxious, knowing this might be important intelligence, but he dared not approach rashly, for fear of alerting them.

Just then, Lin Wan'er, using her mind-reading abilities in the capital, sensed the anomaly. She concentrated, attempting to establish a connection with the team member's mind. Despite the distance, her powerful mental strength allowed her to successfully capture some blurry images and sounds.

"Lord Wang, His Highness Murong Xuan is pressing us hard; our plan must be expedited. The destruction of that batch of provisions is just the beginning. Next, we need to find a way to create even greater chaos within the army..."

Lin Wan'er was startled; she knew this was an important clue. She immediately relayed the message to Xiao Yichen. Upon learning of this, Xiao Yichen realized the seriousness of the matter and decided to personally go to the suburban manor to investigate.

Xiao Yichen, accompanied by several elite men, stealthily approached the manor under the cover of night. They evaded the patrolling guards and infiltrated the manor. Meanwhile, Lord Wang's meeting with the unfamiliar men was still ongoing.

"We need to spread rumors in the army that Xiao Yichen is embezzling military pay and enriching himself, so that the soldiers will be dissatisfied and resentful of him. At the same time, we will arrange for some people to tamper with the weapons, so that the soldiers cannot fight properly on the battlefield," a stranger said.

Lord Wang nodded and said, "This plan is excellent. But we must proceed with caution. Xiao Yichen is no ordinary person, and Lin Wan'er by his side has the ability to read minds. If they discover this, we will all die without a burial place."

“As long as we follow the plan, it will be difficult for them to find out. His Highness Murong Xuan will also cooperate with our actions at the border to attract Xiao Yichen's attention and keep him from worrying about the country.”

Xiao Yichen, listening from the shadows, gritted his teeth. He hadn't expected these people to be so treacherous and cunning. He wanted to rush out and capture them immediately, but he knew it wasn't the best time. He needed to wait for an opportunity to wipe out this opposition force in one fell swoop, while also gathering more information about Murong Xuan.

So Xiao Yichen and his men continued to lie in the shadows, quietly listening to their conspiracy.

Meanwhile, in the capital, the team investigating the spread of rumors and sabotage also made a discovery. They found that some street thugs were secretly acting on orders to spread rumors about Xiao Yichen in crowded places such as markets and teahouses. The team members discreetly followed these thugs and found their mastermind—a man named Master Li.

On the surface, Li Shiye was an ordinary scholar with considerable renown in the capital, but in reality, he had already been bribed by Murong Xuan and become a member of the opposition. The team members kept a close watch on Li Shiye's residence, awaiting further instructions.

On the border of the Mu Kingdom, the team responsible for observing the movements of Murong Xuan's army also reported intelligence. They discovered that Murong Xuan's troops were frequently moving around the border area, indicating signs of reinforcement. Moreover, they also discovered that some mysterious envoys were frequently traveling between the Mu and Rong Kingdoms, seemingly conveying some important information.

By synthesizing intelligence from various sources, Xiao Yichen gradually pieced together the general outline of the collusion between Murong Xuan and the opposition forces in Rong Kingdom. They attempted to weaken Xiao Yichen's power by sabotaging Rong Kingdom's military logistics, creating chaos within the army, and spreading rumors, and then coordinate with Murong Xuan's external offensive to overthrow the Rong Kingdom's regime in one fell swoop.

"Murong Xuan, do you think your scheme will succeed? I will definitely disappoint you." Xiao Yichen muttered to himself, his eyes revealing a firm determination.

He knew that although he had gathered some intelligence, it was far from enough. He needed a deeper understanding of Murong Xuan's entire plan, their communication codes, and the other spies hidden within Rong Kingdom. Only in this way could he completely thwart their conspiracy.

Therefore, Xiao Yichen decided to intensify intelligence gathering efforts. He instructed Lin Wan'er to continue using her mind-reading abilities to delve into the inner world of those suspected; at the same time, he ordered each intelligence team to further narrow the encirclement, conducting more rigorous surveillance and tracking of key targets, leaving no detail overlooked.

In this battle of intelligence gathering, Xiao Yichen and his men were like warriors groping in the dark, each clue guiding their way. They knew that only by uncovering the full picture of the conspiracy could they gain the upper hand in this life-or-death struggle with Murong Xuan and safeguard the peace and tranquility of the Rong Kingdom.

Murong Xuan's joint operation with the opposition forces of Rong Kingdom gradually came to light. Like a venomous snake lurking in the darkness, they were preparing to launch a new attack on Xiao Yichen's businesses and the General's Mansion. The situation, which had just eased slightly, instantly became tense again, like a taut bowstring, ready to snap at any moment and trigger a bloodbath.

In a secret hideout in the capital, Lord Wang met again with Murong Xuan's envoy. Under the dim light, their faces appeared particularly sinister. Lord Wang frowned and said, "Envoy, although our plan is progressing, Xiao Yichen seems to have noticed. He has strengthened the defenses of the General's Mansion, making it difficult for our men to find an opportunity to strike."

The envoy sneered, "Lord Wang, do not panic. Even if Xiao Yichen is prepared, he will find it difficult to withstand our full-scale attack. His Highness has already amassed a large army at the border, feigning a large-scale war to attract Xiao Yichen's attention. And you here must act quickly to take action against his businesses, cut off his economic resources, and put him in a difficult situation."

Lord Wang nodded in agreement: "Then when shall we take action?"

A ruthless glint flashed in the envoy's eyes: "In the dead of night three days from now, we will launch a pincer attack from both inside and outside, and we will surely make Xiao Yichen suffer a crushing defeat."

However, unbeknownst to them, Xiao Yichen's intelligence network had already uncovered their entire plan. Upon learning of this, Xiao Yichen immediately summoned Chen Feng, Lin Wan'er, and his business partners to discuss countermeasures.

The atmosphere in the general's mansion's council hall was so tense it was suffocating. Xiao Yichen's face was cold, his eyes sharp: "Gentlemen, Murong Xuan's conspiracy with the opposition is about to succeed. We must make thorough preparations before they act. Although my business interests are spread throughout Rong Kingdom, most are concentrated in the capital and a few important commercial cities. Mr. Chen, you must quickly arrange for manpower to strengthen the protection of these businesses, especially key locations such as warehouses and shops, where heavy troops must be deployed for defense."

Chen Feng accepted the order and left: "Rest assured, young master, I will do my utmost."

Xiao Yichen turned to Lin Wan'er: "Miss Lin, your mind-reading ability is crucial in this crisis. Can you sense which directions they might attack from, and whether there are any other hidden plots?"

Lin Wan'er nodded slightly, closed her eyes, and concentrated on using her mind-reading ability. After a moment, she opened her eyes and said with a solemn expression, "Young Master Xiao, I sense that they will target the weak points of the commercial sector, such as some small shops with relatively lax defenses and remote warehouses. Moreover, they seem to be secretly plotting to create chaos in the capital to disperse our forces so that we can better attack the General's Mansion."

Xiao Yichen pondered for a moment: "Then let's turn the tables on them. Set traps near small shops and remote warehouses to lure them in. At the same time, we'll deploy some troops in the capital to maintain order and prevent them from causing chaos."

Then, Xiao Yichen addressed his business partners: "Gentlemen, this crisis concerns the interests of all of us. I hope everyone can work together to overcome it. Please gather your security forces and follow Mr. Chen's unified command."

Business partners readily expressed their willingness to cooperate: "Young Master Xiao, you have always taken good care of us. Now that you are in trouble, we will do our best to help you."

Three days later, in the dead of night, the capital was shrouded in darkness, a tense silence permeated with an oppressive atmosphere. Murong Xuan's men and members of the Rong Kingdom's opposition forces, following plan, split into several groups and quietly approached Xiao Yichen's business properties and the General's Mansion.

Outside one of Xiao Yichen's silk warehouses, a group of shadowy figures slowly approached under the cover of night. They assumed the warehouse's guards were lax, unaware that Xiao Yichen had already laid numerous traps around the perimeter. As they stepped into the trap zone, a sharp alarm suddenly blared, followed by a hail of crossbow bolts. The shadowy figures were thrown into chaos, scrambling to dodge the crossbow fire.

"We've fallen for their trap! Retreat!" one of the leaders shouted.

But by then, it was too late to retreat. Xiao Yichen's soldiers surged out from all directions, surrounding them completely. A battle erupted instantly, the shouts of battle shattering the tranquility of the night.

In another direction, a group of people rushed towards one of Xiao Yichen's jewelry shops. Upon entering, they found the shop empty, containing only some seemingly valuable jewelry boxes. When they opened the boxes, a cloud of smoke suddenly billowed out, filled with a pungent odor that made it difficult to breathe.

"This is poisonous smoke! Cover your mouth and nose!" someone shouted in terror.

Just as they were in a panic, Xiao Yichen's soldiers arrived and engaged in a fierce battle with them.

Meanwhile, at the General's Mansion, although Murong Xuan's main force was drawn to the commercial sector, a portion of his troops still attempted a surprise attack. The guards of the General's Mansion were on high alert. With Lin Wan'er's mind-reading ability, they knew the enemy's attack route in advance and made thorough defensive preparations.

As the enemy approached the general's mansion, the guards first launched a ranged attack with catapults and ballistae to disrupt the enemy's formation. Then, armed soldiers rushed out to engage the enemy in close combat.

Xiao Yichen personally led an elite force to provide support throughout the capital. He moved like a black lightning bolt across the battlefield, and wherever he went, enemies fell.

"Murong Xuan, do you think your conspiracy will succeed? Today is your end!" Xiao Yichen roared, wielding his long sword with incredible speed and precision.

During the battle, Xiao Yichen spotted Lord Wang. A flash of anger crossed his eyes, and he charged straight at Lord Wang.

"Lord Wang, you are an official of Rong Kingdom, yet you have betrayed your country and surrendered to the enemy. Today is your death day!" Xiao Yichen said, thrusting his sword at Lord Wang.

Lord Wang was filled with fear, but he still tried to remain calm and raised his sword to defend himself. However, he was no match for Xiao Yichen, and after a few rounds, he was forced to retreat steadily.

Just as Xiao Yichen was about to strike Lord Wang, a mysterious man in black suddenly appeared and blocked his path. The man in black possessed superb swordsmanship and fought Xiao Yichen to a standstill.

"Who are you? Why are you aiding and abetting evil?" Xiao Yichen demanded.

The man in black sneered, "Xiao Yichen, you don't need to know who I am. You just need to know that you're going to die today."

Lin Wan'er witnessed this scene and used her mind-reading ability to perceive the black-clad man's inner thoughts. She discovered that the black-clad man was a martial arts assassin hired by Murong Xuan at great expense, specifically to deal with Xiao Yichen.

"Young Master Xiao, he is an assassin hired by Murong Xuan. You must be careful!" Lin Wan'er shouted loudly.

Xiao Yichen's heart tightened; he knew this assassin was not to be trifled with. But he was fearless, unleashing his strongest swordsmanship in a desperate battle with the assassin.

At a crucial moment in the battle, Xiao Yichen discovered that while the assassin's swordsmanship was sharp, it had a fatal weakness: his lower body defense was relatively weak. Therefore, Xiao Yichen changed his tactics, focusing his attacks on the assassin's lower body.

The assassin sensed Xiao Yichen's intention and tried to adjust his defense, but it was too late. Xiao Yichen seized the opportunity and thrust his sword towards the assassin's leg. The assassin couldn't dodge in time and was wounded by Xiao Yichen.

His movements faltered, and Xiao Yichen followed up with another sword strike, piercing his chest. The assassin's eyes widened as he slowly collapsed.

After dealing with the assassin, Xiao Yichen continued his pursuit of Lord Wang. Seeing the assassin dead, Lord Wang despaired and turned to flee. But Xiao Yichen wouldn't let him go; he caught up in a few steps and ended Lord Wang's life with a single sword strike.

With the death of Lord Wang, the opposition forces in Rong Kingdom were leaderless and immediately fell into chaos. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Murong Xuan's men also began to flee.

Xiao Yichen led his soldiers in pursuit, completely repelling the enemy. This crisis was once again successfully averted by Xiao Yichen, but he knew that Murong Xuan would not give up so easily. In the future, he still needed to remain vigilant and safeguard the peace and tranquility of the Rong Kingdom.

In the Kingdom of Mu, after learning that his plan had failed once again, Murong Xuan angrily smashed the wine cup in his hand to pieces.

"Xiao Yichen, why are you so difficult to deal with? I will never let you get away with this!" Murong Xuan roared.

His advisor cautiously said, "Your Highness, this defeat was truly unexpected. However, we still have a chance. I have heard that there is a mysterious island in the East Sea, where a peerless divine weapon is hidden. If Your Highness can obtain this divine weapon, you will be invincible in the world, and defeating Xiao Yichen will be a piece of cake."

Murong Xuan's eyes lit up: "Is that really true? You must immediately send people to investigate. I must obtain that peerless divine weapon and tear Xiao Yichen to pieces!"

"Yes, Your Highness." The strategist accepted the order and left, while Murong Xuan waited for news in the Mu Kingdom, his heart filled with anticipation for the peerless divine weapon and hatred for Xiao Yichen.
