Master of Strange Dao

If it really doesn't work, go find the Peeling Master to buy some.

According to the usual rumors, the Peeling Master is pretty easy-going and generous, especially towards Body Cultivation.

A Great Demon, the Peeling Master handles the killing but doesn't bother with the burial. After it's dealt with, half of it is the Peeling Master's.

People are willing to do this kind of good thing, just follow the rules.

You have to pay a little more attention to this matter, hurry up. If you go late, the intestines of that Great Demon might have been washed tasteless by someone.

Moreover, the Peeling Master definitely doesn't want those useless things.

Yu Ziqing left Almsgiving Town, took out the Flying Boat, and headed east.

On the way, he closed his eyes and contacted Song Chengyue.

The matter he needs to investigate really can only be handled by Song Chengyue; he doesn't trust anyone else.

At the place where Dali and Daqian meet, in a large camp hundreds of miles from the battlefield.

Song Chengyue was drinking alone here, vented to some people, and then felt better.

Just chilling out, who wouldn't do it?

Currently, Daqian and Dali are at a standstill; this doesn't have much to do with him. He just needs to fulfill his responsibility and prevent the Second Prince from being assassinated.

He's pretty much figured out what the Emperor Qian wants.

Maintain the status quo, peacefully for hundreds of years.

While drinking, a spy came to report from outside.

"Lord, His Highness requests your presence."

"I'm at a crucial moment in my cultivation, wait a few days."

Song Chengyue smirked. No matter how polite this prince is, he can't follow suit.

He just felt the call of the Seventh Floor ring, immediately closed his eyes, and entered a meditative state.

On the Seventh Floor, Song Chengyue casually sat there, looking relaxed.

Never thought there was anything bad about being this Commander before.

Also accustomed to speaking differently to people and demons, a mouthful of lies as soon as he opens his mouth.

But here, he spoke freely, saying whatever he wanted, instead making him feel comfortable.

Having gotten used to here, it felt annoying outside.

Everything is afraid of this comparison.

He is now quite content, with no worries or ambitions.

The more it is like this, the more smoothly the Commander role goes.

The Emperor Qian values him more, which really was baffling.

"Got something, I'd like your help to investigate. Not a big deal, just be careful not to let anyone know."

"Feel free to say, I'm quite idle lately, dealing with that His Highness every day."

Yu Ziqing went over the matter he needed to investigate.

"That's about it: one from ten to twenty or thirty years ago, one from several hundred years ago, the general range is just there.

I guess there aren't many people, just a bit troublesome to check."

"No problem, I'll investigate after I return; just right, I might go back in a few days."

"Got a new task?"

"Not really a big deal, Peeling has returned, and his Life Temple signal was brought to Dali's sea region.

After he came back, he stayed in Dali, not returning to within Daqian.

The court here probably fears this free commander of the sea won't return once he stays in Dali.

Let me check who took Peeling's Life Temple.

Why no one stopped those demons on the coast then.

Leading to several smashed Life Temples, and one taken as a trophy by a Great Demon.

No matter the case, he needs a face-saving explanation."

"Is that necessary?" Yu Ziqing laughed.

"Why not necessary? If this Master had been around and hadn't gone to the Void, those Sea Clan and Demon Clan from the East Sea wouldn't dare get close to Daqian's East Sea coastline.

No need to have several strong ones guarding the coastline long-term, nor to expend a lot to maintain a large army and many experts.

The court isn't foolish, gives a bit of face, some empty fame, doesn't cost much, yet achieves stronger effects than several Ninth Tier.

This really makes a big profit.

The court's face is valuable, yet it's not valuable to this extent, do what must be done."

Yu Ziqing was a bit stunned, then figured it really is like that.

Daqian truly profited big these years.

Without needing to maintain several Ninth Tier strong like supporting Peeling Master.

The resources saved were enough to support several more Ninth Tier.

"Alright, if anything happens, contact me directly, I'll go join the excitement, see if I can get some material from Great Demon."

"You don't need to go, I'll get it for you."

"No need, the stuff I want, if I go late might be gone already, I'll go myself."

Exited the Seventh Floor ring, Song Chengyue opened his eyes, lingered for a while, only slow to go to the tent when the alcohol dissipated.

"Minister Song Chengyue, greets His Highness."

Formal greeting, the Second Prince showed a smiling, relaxed demeanor.

"Lord Song, please sit, no need for formality.

I summoned you due to a matter that needs your assistance."

"Please instruct, Your Highness, is something needing inspection again?"

"No, it's because I heard Father summoned a meeting and wished to ask you to bring back some things on your way."

"You're too kind, Your Highness, for such trifles, just inform a servant to tell me."

"Although a small matter, it's private for me, so it's better to personally explain."

Song Chengyue kept a smile, but inside he started cursing.

Just knew it wouldn't be anything important, just a pile of trivial stuff.

The Second Prince's intentions were crystal clear to him.

In the Capital City, the Second Prince definitely would avoid him, never meeting privately.
