However, as soon as the words were out of his mouth, Su Peisheng regretted it!
If the princess is unharmed and wakes up on her own soon, then everything will be fine, and he can even gain merit. But if the princess doesn't wake up, or even if she has suffered some injury, then he will be in grave danger.
Once he understood this, Su Peisheng quickly changed the subject, offering advice to the Fourth Prince and suggesting that he seek outside help.
Yan Shiwo, a Nascent Soul cultivator of unknown origin, possesses a broad mind and magnanimous spirit. Such a senior figure in the cultivation world is definitely not an ordinary person. With him involved, even if the Princess Consort encounters any problems in the end, Su Peisheng can remain uninvolved.
Such a mindset has nothing to do with loyalty.
"Master Yan!"
When the Fourth Prince heard Su Peisheng mention Yan Shiwo, he immediately thought of the things Rong Xi had told him.
Master Yan, for just one spiritual meal, used the Immortal Valley, a market town frequented by rogue cultivators, as a favor. Such generosity is something even a prince of the Qing Dynasty could not do.
It just so happens that I, a rogue cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, did it!
Something unusual must be going on!
Unsolicited kindness is either a sign of treachery or theft!
The Fourth Prince is now a complete conspiracy theorist; any slight mishap can be blown out of proportion by him.
"Su Peisheng, go and invite Wuliangha and Zuotang over!"
After a moment's thought, the Fourth Prince summoned Su Peisheng to invite someone.
After Su Peisheng left, the Fourth Prince took out a jade talisman and sent out a message.
In just a few breaths, a person shrouded in black robes appeared before the Fourth Prince.
"Greetings, Master!"
The newcomer was also at the Nascent Soul stage, but he treated the Fourth Prince with the utmost respect, behaving like a servant.
"Blood God Child, have you ever heard of a rogue cultivator who has reached the Nascent Soul stage, named Yan Shiwo?"
"This servant has never heard of it!"
"Where is Fairy Valley?"
"Immortal Valley, I have heard of it. It is said that Immortal Valley is a market town for independent cultivators. Those with the right destiny can enter it, or they may even have the chance to soar to the heavens!"
Blood God Child respectfully responded to the Fourth Prince's question.
Although he was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, he was personally trained by the Fourth Prince. Moreover, a wisp of his primordial spirit was in the Fourth Prince's hands. If the Fourth Prince wanted to kill him, he could simply annihilate him with a single thought.
The Fourth Prince's most powerful trump card, the Blood God Guard, was secretly managed by the Blood God Prince.
The Fourth Prince would not use the Blood God Child unless it was absolutely necessary.
When did you first hear about Immortal Valley?
“When I was still a rogue cultivator, I heard about Immortal Valley. It is said that there is an extremely powerful cultivator behind Immortal Valley. Rumor has it that the Xu family of Jiangnan once tried to take over Immortal Valley, but as a result, the Xu family was wiped out overnight. You must have heard about the Xu family massacre, Master!”
"So that's how it is!"
The Fourth Prince had heard of the Xu family massacre.
The imperial court once dispatched an imperial envoy to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate who was responsible for the massacre of the Xu family. Unfortunately, they found absolutely no information, and the case was ultimately dropped.
Now, according to what the Blood God Child said, the Xu family was wiped out because they had designs on Immortal Valley.
Therefore, the annihilation of the Xu family is inextricably linked to Yan Shiwo.
However, the Xu family patriarch was also a powerful figure at the Nascent Soul stage.
Yan Shi Neng was able to kill the Xu family patriarch. This method is simply terrifying!
"Blood God Child, I, Yan Shi, am the man behind Immortal Valley. This time, I intend to capture this person. Are you confident in your ability to do so?"
The Fourth Prince did not back down after learning that the Xu family's massacre was related to Immortal Valley. Now, he is even more convinced that his wife's long and unawakened state is inextricably linked to the master of Immortal Valley, namely Yan Shiwo.
"Master, this servant has never met Yan Shiwo before and cannot judge the difference in strength between us. However, this servant can have someone secretly set up an array. With the help of the array's power, there shouldn't be any major problems!"
"Alright, then, take your men and get ready!"
Since the Fourth Prince has decided to take action against Yan Shiwo, he will not hesitate.
As a prince, the most basic decision-making ability is the necessary self-cultivation.
Since Yan Shiwo has been determined to be a suspect, then regardless of whether the other party is actually a suspect or not, we should treat him as a suspect and arrest him first.
After Blood God Child left, he arranged for people to set up an array at Prince Yong's residence.
Not long after the Blood God Child left, Su Peisheng returned with Zuo Tang and Wuliangha.
"I've run into some trouble and need your help!"
The Fourth Prince looked at the two of them and, without any unnecessary words, went straight to the point.
"As you all know these past two days, my wife has inexplicably fallen into a deep sleep. I suspect it's the work of a Nascent Soul cultivator, so I need your help to capture him!"
"After this matter, the karmic ties between you two and my Prince Yong's Mansion are completely severed!"
The Fourth Prince's words were spoken with absolute certainty.
Uliangha and Zuotang were both stunned by the Fourth Prince's words. They were able to advance to the Nascent Soul realm thanks to the grand feast at Prince Yong's mansion, and their successful tribulation was due to the battle pets by the Princess Consort's side.
This is what it means to incur karmic debt!
If they could sever this karmic debt, both of them would be extremely happy. What cultivators fear most is incurring karmic debts; without clearing these debts, there is no hope of ascension.
Now that this karmic debt can be cleared up, both of them are naturally more than happy to do so. Especially Uliangha, because this karmic debt has made him quite conflicted these past two days, torn between loyalty and gratitude.
Now he doesn't have to worry about it anymore!
"Your Highness, the battle pets beside the Princess Consort are incredibly powerful. With them around, what Nascent Soul cultivator couldn't be defeated?"
Zuo Tang was much calmer and more clear-headed than Wu Liangha.
The Fourth Prince smiled slightly and said, "Even I cannot command the Princess Consort's war pet!"
This situation is really ridiculous!
The Fourth Prince felt extremely aggrieved whenever he thought about this. However, that was his wife's beloved concubine, not his.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, this servant will do everything in my power to capture that suspect!"
Uriyangkhad immediately made a solemn statement.
"I will set up an array in the palace, and someone will cooperate with you. Remember, capture this suspect, and all karmic ties between you two and the palace will be severed. But if he escapes, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
The Fourth Prince is not in good condition right now.
Anyone would feel bad seeing the uncertain situation of someone they care about.
Uliangha and Zuotang exchanged a glance. After that, Uliangha stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, do you need me to mobilize the army?"
