Chapter 1754: Chapter 941: Fat Uncle (Part 2)
When speaking, the Princess looked at Lin Feng with anticipation, her bright eyes full of admiration.
At this moment, Lin Feng was unsure about the credibility of the Princess’s words, so he tentatively responded: "You say the Emperor has been replaced, but can you show me evidence?"
Then, the Princess produced some accounts and documents that had been filed as evidence, and Lin Feng examined them one by one, growing more shocked as he read further.
It seemed that the Princess truly had substantial evidence this time, otherwise she wouldn’t have rashly involved an outsider like him.
After reviewing the evidence, Lin Feng began to believe in the Princess’s words.
"Besides the three of us, who else knows about this matter?" Lin Feng cautiously asked the Princess, knowing that the emperor’s position was at stake; even if the Princess leaked the information prematurely, it could be punishable by death.
The Princess answered Lin Feng: "Apart from us three, my bodyguard Mu Yu also knows about this matter. Rest assured, he used to be a General, but after discovering the secret today, he resigned and now serves as my close bodyguard in the palace."
Lin Feng sighed and then responded to the Princess: "What do you need me to do now? As you can see, I’ve lost my cultivation, and I’m only at the Four Spirits Seal level."
The Princess did not belittle Lin Feng due to his decreased cultivation; she believed Lin Feng had gotten this far not solely because of his cultivation strength, but because of his wisdom and courage.
Seeing Lin Feng declare his loss of cultivation, the Princess smiled and said to him: "You’ve now recovered to the Four Spirits Seal level, and I’ve heard about your exploits in Liuzhou. Not everyone can accomplish such feats; many things rely not on cultivation strength but on wisdom and courage, and you are the one we’ve been waiting for."
As it turned out, Lin Feng’s feat of taming the Nian Beast in Liuzhou had spread across the world, leaving him speechless. But considering his Four Spirits Seal was able to conquer a pinnacle Nine Spirit Knot creature, facing hundreds of Seven Spirit Knot and Eight Spirit Knot City Guards couldn’t manage it, Lin Feng alone succeeded with ease.
Lin Feng wanted to try, indeed as the Princess mentioned, many successes and failures do not rely solely on the strength of cultivation; there are many other factors involved.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng picked up the teacup and drank the hot tea the attendant had just poured, then put the cup down and said to the Princess: "If that’s the case, I won’t decline any further. Whatever you need me to do, just tell me."
Seeing Lin Feng agree, the Princess’s admiration for him deepened. Lin Feng managed to recover from a state of no cultivation back to the Four Spirits Seal within just a month, which others might take twenty or thirty years to achieve.
With this achievement alone, what tasks would Lin Feng not be able to accomplish?
The Princess glanced at the fat uncle beside her and gestured for everyone to leave. Although there was only one maid, the Princess couldn’t let anyone else know about their actions, despite the maid having grown up with the Princess.
Some things aren’t feared to be foolproof; the fear is that one in a million.
The maid bowed to the Princess and said: "I’ll wait outside the door, call me in if you need anything." Then she left the room.
With only the fat uncle and Lin Feng left inside, the Princess felt secure enough to instruct Lin Feng: "Now the Six Great Sects are just beginning to recover, everything needs to thrive anew. The Heaven Alliance is more reliable than the Six Great Sects, at least most members of the Six Great Sects have already joined my Heaven Alliance. We have our own members across Central State battling the fake Emperor."
Lin Feng realized what the "Heaven Alliance" the fat uncle had mentioned earlier actually was.
The Princess then took out a Sky Alliance Token and handed it to Lin Feng, continuing: "This token is the Sky Alliance Token, seeing it is equivalent to seeing the Alliance Hierarch. Currently, the main members of the Heaven Alliance are suppressed by the Court; they’re confined in the Western Army barracks. Take my token to the western part of Central State; someone will meet you there."
Having said this, the Princess didn’t continue, leaving it to Lin Feng to investigate the clues himself. Naturally, this would be better than directly telling him everything.
Lin Feng stretched out his hand to receive the token, then held it carefully in his hand.
The token was made of pure gold, engraved with the words "Sky Alliance" and intricate designs, distinguishing the authenticity of this token.
"This is the Heaven Alliance, truly remarkable. Who would have thought a young Princess could have such a scheme? It really isn’t simple." Hearing the Princess’s story, Lin Feng felt admiration for her.
Lin Feng had strategized in Peace City for many years, ultimately ending up in this predicament; shouldn’t he blame his own naivety?
Thinking of this made Lin Feng feel a sense of loss, realizing that scheming and power struggles weren’t his strengths.
Indeed, in Peace City for so many years, Lin Feng had always fulfilled his duties, leading the people of Peace City to this day. Without Lin Feng, perhaps Peace City wouldn’t exist.
For years, he only worried about Peace City, and now, faced with this situation, Peace City encountered crisis after crisis. He thought of the white-clothed figures and Xue Nian, realizing they’d come to kill him on the fake Emperor’s order.
"Now the Court is plagued by treacherous ministers, the realm can no longer withstand any tribulations. We have to eliminate the evil conspiracy at once and restore justice to the realm; only then can the Human Realm truly be saved." The fat uncle remembered to chime in, seemingly wanting to tell Lin Feng that the Court can be saved and the Human Realm can be saved if everyone cooperates with the Princess to expose the fake Emperor’s conspiracy and restore the throne to the true Emperor to eliminate corruption and treacherous courtiers.
Lin Feng nodded, apparently convinced by the fat uncle’s words.
"Princess, it takes three days to travel to the western part of Central State. Allow me to go back now and prepare so I can set out immediately." Lin Feng took his leave from the Princess.
The Princess immediately called for the attendant and then had the attendant give Lin Feng a Qiankun Bag, which was more advanced than a brocade bag, with a large storage space inside for storing many magical treasures and spirit stones.
The attendant handed the Qiankun Bag to Lin Feng, who took it and asked the Princess.
"What is this?"
Lin Feng was naturally asking about what the Qiankun Bag contained. The Princess knew what he was asking and promptly replied: "Inside are the weapons and magical treasures of thirty main members of the Heaven Alliance, all confiscated by the Court. If you rescue them, exchange these weapons with everyone."
Lin Feng put away these items, then stood up, bowed to the Princess, and left with the fat uncle.
After they left, the Princess’s guard emerged.
"What do you think of him?" The Princess asked Mu Yu, seemingly having arranged for him to observe Lin Feng, as she couldn’t make this decision alone.
Mu Yu said to the Princess: "This person is indeed extraordinary. Although he is currently at the Four Spirits Seal level, upon careful probing, I discovered that his body contains two other powerful energies, just currently unusable due to certain reasons. Him handling this matter is ideal; he is astute, prudent in action, and often chosen by chance. He possesses ’timeliness and human advantages,’ which are very suitable for our operation. This time at the Western Army camp will serve as a trial, then he’ll act alongside me."
