Chapter 585: 104. The Secrets of the Princes_2
All the princes and princesses also have a good relationship with the Fourth Prince.
"The most important thing is the Third Prince's thoughts, specially inviting me to his birthday celebration, with the Twelfth Prince also present, could it be that he plans to intervene?"
Thinking of this, he felt somewhat worried.
It was heard that the Third Prince had mastered at least two Heavenly Reversal Paths, his Cultivation Technique was extremely powerful, and having successfully proved his path, he surely must have refined the Ancient Divine Power, so his terrifying strength needs no further mention.
If such a person were to intervene in his and the Twelfth Prince's struggle, even if he were to achieve Harmonization in the future, he would not be certain of killing the Twelfth Prince.
"Brother, you've only been cultivating in the mortal world for four years and you're already back?"
Seeing that Lin Yue seemed somewhat troubled, Seventh Princess could not help but take the initiative to send a message to change the subject.
"It's not over yet, I just came back because of some matters." Lin Yue sent a message back, "How is Sister Qiuhe?"
"I am preparing to absorb Divine Power," Seventh Princess sent a message, "But I need to be careful."
After chatting for a while, the Third Prince's birthday celebration began.
As a thousand-year celebration, the grandeur of the Third Prince's banquet was absolute, with lavish and precious Heaven and Earth Treasures as the delicacies, enough to astound many Saint-level powerhouses.
The various delicacies prepared for the banquet alone, including the Jadescent Nectar, together would be worth several superb Spiritual Treasures.
Besides the princes and princesses, the attendees the Third Prince had invited were genuinely the high-ranking officials of Di Hong City, with not a few Saint-level powerhouses present; even the Great Cultivators present would certainly be high-ranking officials with significant authority.
"Brother Seventeen, a toast to you."
Prince Fifteen also took the initiative to offer Lin Yue several toasts.
During the banquet, different seating arrangements also represented various circles and statuses; the princes and princesses almost all sat in their original places, while other guests came over to toast in succession.
However, the Fourth Prince and Seventh Princess did not drink, and the Second Princess even sat there minding her own business, not paying attention to anyone.
"Second Sister, I haven't had the chance to thank you for saving me last time, allow me to offer a toast to you."
Lin Yue took the initiative to toast the Second Princess holding his drink.
The Second Princess glanced at him, slightly shook her head, and said, "I was merely returning a favor."
Saying so, she also picked up the cup and toasted Lin Yue in return.
Lin Yue secretly sighed with relief; it seemed that the identity of the Sect Leader of Tantian Sect still carried weight with the Second Princess.
Other guests, and even the Eighth Prince, did not get any attention from the Second Princess when they offered toasts, but being able to toast him in return meant that her attitude was already very good.
"Second Sister, do you think the Sixteenth Prince is really dead?" Lin Yue asked in a low voice.
"The palace also feels that with his cleverness he shouldn't have died, but..."
The Second Princess stopped here and slightly shook her head, "But the one who killed him is that person; I can't see how he could survive."
Lin Yue's eyebrows raised slightly.
It seemed that the Second Princess knew that the Crown Prince killed the Sixteenth Prince?
The Crown Prince in the Yong Realm was truly an invincible existence, even capable of killing from afar with a mere thought the supremely powerful beings who had Proved and Transcended; to kill the merely Saint-level Sixteenth Prince, logically he would undoubtedly have to die.
But...
Lin Yue pondered for a moment and said, "Second Sister, do you know that the Sixteenth Prince actually had a Creation Lotus Seed in his possession?"
"What?" Second Princess suddenly looked at him.
"I learned of this a few years ago in the Beiyuan Mountain," Lin Yue said carefully, "Although I am not clear on the specific function of the Creation Lotus Seed, but being one of the Heaven and Earth Treasures that came into being after the heavens and earth were opened, its value is comparable to a Divine Artifact. The Sixteenth Prince chose it over a Divine Artifact, so it must have been more important to him than a Divine Artifact, right?"
"Are you certain?" Second Princess asked.
"The Sixteenth Prince was kin to me, and you, Second Sister, have also shown me favor. I am also the Sect Leader of Tantian Sect; why would I deceive you?" Lin Yue said, "This matter is absolutely true."
Second Princess was silent for a long while before saying, "Thank you, Seventeen Brother."
"There's nothing to thank me for," Lin Yue slightly shook his head.
Wasn't it just about holding onto powerful coattails?
If he could get the Second Princess to help him out once more by offering these secrets, it would be more than worthwhile.
The Third Prince was powerful, but if when the time came to take revenge on the Twelfth Prince, and he could ask the Second Princess to intervene, things would be much easier.
Moreover, people like the Second Princess who lived in their own world, cared about very few things, and having a good relationship with her was the best.
"Second Sister, do you know the function of the Creation Lotus Seed?" Lin Yue asked.
The Second Princess pondered for a while before responding, "The Creation Lotus Seed, I have only heard of it. It is said to contain all the life and creation energy, allowing the creation of an Innate Perfect Body that is in perfect alignment with the Divine Soul without Reincarnation. It is also told that it can birth and nurture a Semi-Divine Artifact perfectly meeting its owner's needs. Furthermore, it can restore a shattered Divine Soul back to its original state... In short, it contains all sorts of incredible creations."
Lin Yue seemed thoughtful.
From the sound of it, the Creation Lotus Seed didn't seem to have the means to save the Sixteenth Prince's life, did it?
If the Crown Prince could kill a Proving power with a single thought, completely obliterating the Divine Soul, even the Creation Lotus Seed wouldn't be able to help in time, would it?
After pondering for a long while, the Second Princess unexpectedly asked, "Seventeen Brother, within the Tantian Sect, is there someone who inherits the mantle of 'Plummetless Robes'?"
"... There is."
Lin Yue nodded slightly, "The Sixteenth Prince's granddaughter, Yu Shiqi."
"Granddaughter? Yu Shiqi?" Second Princess upon hearing this name, murmured, "Seventeen?"
She then asked, "Does Yu Shiqi possess any Innate Divine Power?"
"Yes." Lin Yue nodded, "Her Innate Divine Power is 'Belief into Reality'."
Upon hearing this, the Second Princess fell silent for a long while before softly shaking her head, "You should be glad... that you are a prince and not a princess."
"What? Second Sister, what do you mean by this?" Lin Yue couldn't help but ask.
