I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

“Alright, senior, you’ve worked hard. It’s time to lay low for a while,” the Crown Prince said smilingly, looking at the Sword Ancestor. “Later, I will introduce you to the Mo Family.”

The Sword Ancestor’s face lit up with joy, and then he bowed and vanished within the wooden hut.

The Crown Prince closed his eyes, humming a little tune, and murmured to himself, “It seems I need to establish a good relationship with him.”

“He doesn’t appear to be very powerful, probably the one who hid his abilities the deepest among that group…”

…

The sun rose fiercely in the east.

At the death site of Cheng Dahai and Yu Cheng, four men stood around, looking at the two corpses with grim expressions.

The leader among them was the Second Elder, and the other three were elders from the Law Enforcement Hall.

After Cheng Dahai’s death, his soul token shattered, and the Second Elder immediately brought the people from the Law Enforcement Hall to this place.

“Can you determine who did this?” the face of the Second Elder was as dark as if about to drip with water.

One of the elders from the Law Enforcement Hall knelt on one knee, bending over to examine the bodies of Cheng Dahai and Yu Cheng, his brows knitted tightly together.

“The message and the pre-death mirror image have been erased by the killer, and there are no other traces around, nor signs of resistance from Cheng Dahai and his companion, which means the assailant’s strength far exceeds theirs… at least an Ancestral Realm powerhouse.”

Another elder from the Law Enforcement Hall looked at the sword qi still lingering around the center of their brows.

“A Sword Dao Ancestor Realm expert, not many who have entered the Ancestral Realm with the sword are found on the Tianji Continent, but it’s extremely difficult to conduct an investigation.”

“After all, those Sword Dao Ancestor Realm powerhouses are like divine dragons which you can’t see the head or tail of.”

The Second Elder said with a stern face, “The task they took on was related to the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty, wasn’t it? Does the Divine Dynasty have any Sword Dao experts?”

All three elders from the Law Enforcement Hall shook their heads.

Seeing this, the Second Elder realized that continuing to seek answers this way would surely yield no results, and besides, an expert of this realm would not carelessly leave any clues behind.

At this thought, the Second Elder suddenly remembered the special recruitment students, among whom there was one who focused on Sword Dao.

Could it be someone behind them?

But with things still uncertain, the Second Elder had no choice but to order the bodies of Cheng Dahai and Yu Cheng to be taken back to the academy.

They would question the special recruitment students after they returned.

…

Jiulong City.

Welcomed by a host of ministers, the Crown Prince returned to his territory within the Azure Dragon Courtyard.

At the same time, Ye Qiubai and the others also arrived.

The Crown Prince handed a task scroll with his seal over to Fengye, as well as a dragon-shaped jade pendant.

Simply holding it in the palm, one could feel the dragon’s roar resonating, and the powerful Dragon Soul Energy!

The Nine Dragons Jade Pendant!

Laughing, the Crown Prince said, “If you’re not in a hurry to leave, how about staying a little longer? I’ll host a banquet for you later, as thanks for your protection these past days.”

“Oh, and by the way, many young talents will be there, and you can also exchange insights with one another.”

Fengye, who initially wanted to refuse, couldn’t help but light up at this and immediately nodded in agreement.

Ye Qiubai and the others exchanged helpless glances.

The Crown Prince had probably investigated Fengye thoroughly already…
