How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?! Chapter 999 731: The Emperor of Dahuang Has Passed Away (Par

In the human world, it was already May.

When I left Beijing that day, it was just early spring. Now, it had already beco midsumr.

Truly, ti flows like a river.

Lin Xiaosu's figure transford into flowing water, almost appearing in the Marquis Mansion with just a turn.

His figure settled, and Xiao Hong caught sight of him, letting out a gasp.

The steward quickly approached and knelt: "My lord... My lord, you have not returned for months, major events have occurred frequently in Beijing, this old servant was at a loss, my lord, you have finally returned..."

The voice choked with emotion.

"Speak, what major events?" Lin Xiaosu asked.

"My lord is unaware?"

"During these days, I have been outside the mundane world, knowing nothing of worldly affairs. Please tell ..."

The steward accompanied him to the backyard, recounting the major events along the way.

The Emperor suddenly passed away last month; no one knows why he died. Of the princes, only one remains, Prince An, Hong Yang, who logically succeeded to the throne. Ten days ago, he was formally enthroned. After the new emperor ascended, a batch after another of court ministers was replaced, even the previous emperor's Commander of the Forbidden Army, Huo Gang, was replaced.

The steward was very worried about his lord, the marquis.

Currently, His Majesty has not sent anyone to the Marquis Mansion, but rumors are flying in the marketplace.

So say that the new emperor holds ideas different from the previous emperor and is particularly friendly towards the Cultivation Sect, while our marquis built his fortune on suppressing the Cultivation Sect, which looks bleak for the future...

During the conversation, Lin Xiaosu stood on the platform outside the bedroom.

His gaze turned towards the neighboring mansion.

The neighboring Prince Yun Mansion was overgrown with weeds, long uninhabited.

He raised his hand slightly, interrupting the steward's trembling recount of marketplace rumors: "You say, when the previous emperor passed, only Prince An remained?"

"Yes!" replied the steward, "When my lord left Beijing, Prince Yun, Prince Xi, Prince An, Prince Beihe, and King Kaoshan were all present. Who would have thought that within just a month and a half, they all fell, leaving only Prince An. As a result, when the emperor passed, there were no hiccups, and Prince An smoothly succeeded."

His voice fell to a whisper.

Because of this affair, turmoil had already erupted in Beijing.

It's no wonder people have thoughts; the crux of the matter creates vast room for imagination.

The death of one prince could provoke rumors that last for years, let alone the death of four princes within just a month and a half?

And thereafter, in less than a month, the previous emperor passed away.

Leaving one lone seedling to succeed.

In the Great Wilderness Dynasty and others, such situations were quite rare.

This nearly publicly announced to the world that this new emperor was ticulously cultivated by the Wan du sect.

But, do you dare to speak?

Though no one dares to say it, inside the Marquis Mansion, it was already gloomy with worry.

Everyone understood that their marquis was essentially tied to the previous emperor, and every step of his ascent was related to the previous emperor's favor. He was also in the sa boat as the neighboring Prince Yun, who died under the hands of the Wan du sect.

The previous emperor was likely poisoned by Wan du sect.

Not to ntion Prince Yun next door, exterminated by Wan du sect is blatantly apparent.

That Prince An, ticulously cultivated by Wan du sect, ascending the throne, could not possibly be good for the marquis?

Nothing was done prior because the marquis was out and had not returned.

Now that he is back, the next mont, perhaps, the Imperial Army would surround the mansion, with everyone within to be executed.

These terrifying speculations had already spread throughout Beijing, with many gloating and spreading it around. Those people, so are from ntal Path, others lost interests when he went to Jiangnan, anyway, Lin Xiaosu had disrupted the vested interests of many upon entering this world, thus there were many rejoicing in his misfortune.

So had already fled from the Marquis Mansion.

Three of them!

Not many, but the ssage sent by this was very frightening.

A need to know, this Marquis Xueyi, in treating those under his household, would catch no fault even under the closest scrutiny.

Truly treating subordinates like family.

If it weren't for an enormous crisis upon them, who would leave him?

Suddenly, Little Qing hurried over: "My lord, there are guests visiting."

The steward suddenly shivered.

At this ti, he feared visitors.

But Lin Xiaosu's eyes lit up: "Invite them over!"

As soon as the three words fell, he turned and entered the bedroom.

A woman, her face veiled with light gauze, gracefully passed through the outer courtyard, walked through three long corridors, and entered Lin Xiaosu's bedroom.

Lin Xiaosu gently waved his hand: "Qing'er, you should leave too!"

Qing'er left; Lin Xiaosu waved his hand, the door closed, and he gently stretched out his hand to embrace the veiled woman.

The woman's gaze lifted: "This embrace ans the bedroom is sealed again?"

"Yes, my dear Chang Ye."

The visitor was Chang Ye.

"I've been followed this ti!" Chang Ye spoke, "So, we'd better quickly get to the point and end the eting within fifteen minutes."

"Alright! Let's get started now!" Lin Xiaosu said: "Were the Emperor and the three princes killed by Wan du sect?"

"Yes!"

Lin Xiaosu was slightly surprised: "It truly was?!"

Chang Ye gently exhaled: "According to your plan, Wan du sect needs to stop after eliminating Prince Yun. You calculated that Heart Dao would inevitably use Wan du sect's thods to push this matter forward, and then you found ironclad evidence of Heart Dao murdering the Emperor, forming a frontal attack on Heart Dao by Great Wilderness. I followed your arrangent and persuaded the Old Witch of Ten Thousand Poison. Initially, she was convinced, and everything was moving in the direction we expected. But soone suddenly appeared; it's this person who altered the course of events..."

"Who is it?"

"A person wearing light gauze, with a seductive figure, likely female, although only veiled, I couldn't see anything clearly from a distance; it felt like gazing at the Milky Way. I probed her reality, only finding out a nickna—probably not a nickna: Half Tao Lord of Heavenly Face!" Chang Ye said, "This person spoke with Li Xinyu in a secret room for six hours, after which Li Xinyu completely overturned previous decisions and boldly acted to kill one Emperor and three princes."

"Half Tao Lord of Heavenly Face, so it's her!" Lin Xiaosu gently exhaled.

"Do you know her?"

"This person was the cherished sweetheart of the Reincarnation Tao Master Song Yilun six thousand years ago. It was because of her that the Reincarnation Tao lost the Reincarnation Seal, thereby falling from 'Tao' to 'sect.' With the loss of the Reincarnation Seal, Heart Dao was able to rise from 'sect' to 'Tao'."

Chang Ye sighed: "What a stunningly talented and seasoned elder; six thousand years ago she stirred up storms, orchestrated this grand event, and today, spanning six thousand years, she sabotaged our plan."

"She rewrote the plan, yet the result aligns with my intentions; our plan hasn't necessarily failed," said Lin Xiaosu.

Chang Ye nodded: "What we originally wanted was the death of the Emperor and the extinction of the princes, which was her goal too. From the plan's perspective, it hasn't failed, but objectively, Great Wilderness has fallen into her control!"

"I'll manage Great Wilderness!" Lin Xiaosu said, "You on your side, prepare to implent a truly extre strategy!"

"How to implent it?" Chang Ye's eyes lit up. She belonged to Qianlong, and all her life she walked on the edge of various sly plots, yet at this mont, she was clueless.

Because Wan du sect and Heart Dao had already implented cooperation at the highest level.

Heart Dao Half Tao Leader, the second person in Heart Dao next to the Tao Lord, her master, Li Xinyu, the absolute leader of Wan du sect, the two had implented cooperation; how to break it?

But her little husband had prepared an extre strategy.

Who wouldn't anticipate his extre strategy?

Lin Xiaosu said: "This move requires so ti... You go find a place to stay in Desolate Capital; in no more than seven days, I'll contact you."

"Alright!"

The door opened, Lin Xiaosu gracefully bowed: "Miss Ye's music theory is truly admirable, and I, Marquis, will look forward to seeing you again!"

"Marquis Xueyi, you flatter ; the theory was just a sudden inspiration based on the marquis's music, and today receiving your praise is a great comfort!"

She took her leave and departed.

At the door of Lin Xiaosu's bedroom, he instructed Little Qing: "See Miss Ye off!"

In everyone's eyes, her visit was simply the girl having a sudden musical inspiration and hurriedly ca to discuss with the marquis.

In rely fifteen minutes, nothing suspicious could have occurred.

Seeing off Chang Ye, Lin Xiaosu sat cross-legged.

In his Sea of Consciousness, three Primordial Spirits stood facing each other.

Yes, three Primordial Spirits.

No one imagined he would have three Primordial Spirits.

Whence ca these three Primordial Spirits?

They ca from Duanmu Can.

Duanmu Can, during Lin's third attempt to snatch sothing, used her eyes to perform the "Star Annihilation Slash," intending to wipe out this annoying and reckless Primordial Spirit.

It seed she succeeded.

Because her slash successfully split Lin's Primordial Spirit into two.

However, what she hadn't anticipated was that Lin's Primordial Spirit didn't perish but instead accidentally unlocked the most terrifying skill among the heavens: Divine Splitting Technique.

The Divine Splitting Technique helped him greatly in his adventurous life, saving him multiple tis.

But it had always been just two Primordial Spirits, facing extre pressures of tight schedules and heavy tasks, he indeed wanted to split one more, and tried, but whenever he decided, he felt a tremor from the Spirit Platform, knowing it was highly risky.

The Divine Splitting Technique, called a miracle on earth, actually wasn't mysterious at all.
