Lord Wuxiang arrives and confronts Zhao Ya and his disciples. The disciples accuse him of betraying the Prince by pledging allegiance to the Princely Heir, Sharlu. Lord Wuxiang defends his actions, stating he followed the Holy Decree and aims to protect the Ruyang Royal Mansion and the White Deer Army from purge, hoping the Prince will return. Zhao Ya acknowledges his reasoning but insists she must stay to save her imprisoned father.

The Lord Wuxiang listened to this and said: "I know about this matter, and the purpose of my visit to the Great Capital this time is precisely for this. I plan to infiltrate Tuotuo’s inner circle first and then find a way to rescue the Prince. However, no matter what happens, Commandery Princess, you must not get involved. You and the Three Young Princes are the ones the Prince admires and loves the most. You must find a way to preserve your usefulness so that when the Prince returns, you can once again aid him in his troubles."

"As for the matter of rescuing the Prince, leave it to me."

As Lord Wuxiang spoke, there was a determined look in his eyes. Seeing Lord Wuxiang like this, Zhao Ya remained silent. This Lord Wuxiang didn’t seem like a bad person at all.

With these thoughts, Lord Wuxiang said: "Commandery Princess, I have said all I can. I have things to do, so I must go now and cannot delay."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya seemed to have thought of something and said: "Master."

"Hmm?"

Lord Wuxiang turned back to look at Zhao Ya. At this moment, Zhao Ya spoke up: "I, I wish to know if Master Turtle and Master Crane, are they, are they alright?"

Back then, the Princely Heir Sharlu suddenly turned against Zhao Ya and Wang Baobao. It was Master Turtle and Master Crane who blocked the pursuers, but it seemed the two were captured by the Qincha Eight Guards, and their life and death remain unknown.

Hearing this, Lord Wuxiang said: "Yes, they suffered some physical punishment and have been imprisoned, but their lives are not in danger."

After hearing this, Zhao Ya breathed a sigh of relief. What she feared most was hearing that her two masters had been killed. Now knowing they are alive, Zhao Ya truly felt relieved.

Lord Wuxiang looked at Zhao Ya again and said: "Commandery Princess, heed my advice. Now that Tuotuo and his forces are strong, you should avoid exposure for some time. I believe the Prince will not be imprisoned for long. Once he is out, everything will become clear with the dawn and the sky will be visible!"

After hearing Lord Wuxiang’s words, the Commandery Princess looked at him and said: "Thank you, Master."

Lord Wuxiang nodded, and as he turned to leave, suddenly a gust of wind blew behind him.

Initially, Lord Wuxiang didn’t feel much about it, but the next moment he saw a figure. As he regained focus, he saw the face of the visitor.

"Chen!"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Jie already reached him. Instantly Lord Wuxiang activated his Protective Gang Qi to defend himself. In an instant, a three-foot air wall appeared before him.

He thought that such a defense would be foolproof, but unexpectedly, in the next moment, Chen Jie swiftly advanced to his front, then extended two fingers, joining them like a sword, and easily broke through his Protective Gang Qi, tearing it apart as if it were a mere sheet of paper.

How is this possible!

Lord Wuxiang’s eyes widened fiercely, filled with terror. He never imagined that Chen Jiusi would be able to tear his Protective Gang Qi apart so easily.

Even a block of tofu shouldn’t be torn apart this easily!

His eyes were filled with shock, and he unexpectedly considered a terrifying possibility: Chen Jie had surpassed the constraints of the Molten Furnace Realm and entered the Melt God Realm.

Only those in the Melt God Realm can manipulate the Power of Heaven and Earth Rules; this allows control over the space within a meter around them. Martial Artists below the Melt God Realm entering this meter radius will find their Protective Gang Qi and other methods useless.

The technique Chen Jie used to subdue him was precisely a Melt God Realm method.

He, Chen Jiusi, entered the Melt God Realm!

Lord Wuxiang’s eyes were wide open, and beneath his stunned gaze, Chen Jie lightly pointed a finger and struck his acupoint, instantly rooting him in place.

"Haha, Master, long time no see!"

Chen Jie looked at Lord Wuxiang, wearing a smile. Lord Wuxiang stared in disbelief and said: "Chen Jiusi, how could it be you? You broke through to the Melt God Realm!"

Chen Jie responded: "You immediately ask me two questions. How should I answer you?"

A slight pause,

"Alright, considering our long-standing acquaintance, I’ll seriously answer your questions. The first question, why is it me? Yes, it is indeed me. The second question, did I break through to the Melt God Realm? The answer is, indeed!"

"And I’ve been beyond the breakthrough for quite some time already."

As Chen Jie spoke, he said to Lord Wuxiang: "But Master, it looks like you haven’t made much progress over all this time!"

Upon hearing this, Lord Wuxiang angrily said: "Chen Jiusi, did you immobilize me just to humiliate me?"

"What exactly do you have in mind? Just say it, be it beheading or stabbing, feel free."

Strongly Lord Wuxiang declared, and Chen Jie looked at him and said: "Haha, Master appears to be very stubborn, yet strangely enough, unable to self-assuredly hold his own beliefs, instead choosing to serve a traitor?"

Upon hearing this, Lord Wuxiang angrily said: "Chen Jiusi, you’re only trying to humiliate me, aren’t you? I’ll tell you, a gentleman may die but cannot be humiliated. Commandery Princess!"

At this moment, Lord Wuxiang called out once to the Commandery Princess, and Zhao Ya took two steps forward. Lord Wuxiang said: "Commandery Princess, if you think the old minister is disloyal, you can completely kill me. Why allow it in this manner now, letting an outsider humiliate me!"

Upon hearing Lord Wuxiang’s words, Zhao Ya looked at Chen Jie, her eyes carrying a hint of pleading. Chen Jie understood Zhao Ya’s intention. Although Lord Wuxiang was not Zhao Ya’s initial mentor like Master Turtle and Master Crane, he had taught Zhao Ya as well.

Considered Zhao Ya’s half-master, Chen Jie couldn’t be so excessive. So at this moment, Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya and said: "Alright, I won’t intervene anymore, as this is a matter within your Prince Mansion."
