Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313: The Ruthlessness of the Ninth Crown Prince (2/4) Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313: The Ruthlessness of the Ninth Crown Prince (2/4) On the way back to the Mixed Spirit Academy.
Yu Cheng looked at Cheng Dahai beside him and asked, “Elder Brother Cheng, how should we report to the Second Elder once we return?”
The attempt to intercept Blackie and the others had failed.
Cheng Dahai gave a wry smile and said, “How can we report? Just report the truth.”
“This mission wasn’t really meant for either of our parties from the start; we were merely extras. It was entirely a battle of wits and bravery between the Ninth Crown Prince and the other three Crown Princes. Who would have thought that the Ninth Crown Prince’s preparations were so thorough? He probably even knew that we were taking on the Third Crown Prince’s task.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Cheng’s expression grew solemn, a chill inexplicably rising in his heart as he said with a bitter smile, “If possible, I really wouldn’t want to offend someone like the Ninth Crown Prince.”
Cheng Dahai nodded and said, “If the Ninth Crown Prince ascends the throne, we should also avoid traveling to the territories of the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty; it’s uncertain if he would strike against us.”
“Then, are we in danger on our way back?”
Upon hearing this, Cheng Dahai thought for a moment and shook his head, “Currently, the Ninth Crown Prince is still the weaker party. Even if he hasn’t won others over, there’s no need to turn all others into sworn enemies. As a personal disciple of the Second Elder, I hold a certain position in the Mixed Spirit Academy. If the Ninth Crown Prince wants to silence someone, it’s likely that the Second Elder or the Mixed Spirit Academy would favor the side hostile to the Ninth Crown Prince.”
“He probably wouldn’t resort to such measures.”
Yet at this moment, a swordsman approached Cheng Dahai and Yu Cheng.
Cheng Dahai and Yu Cheng instinctively stopped in their tracks.
