Creating the Shura Palace in a Fantasy World

Chapter 57: Chapter 57 - Yan Chamber of Commerce



After a moment of silence, Sun Donghai finally took a deep breath and confirmed, "Yes, we will continue to support the Fourth Prince for the position of Crown Prince."

"But..."

The elder who had spoken earlier wanted to discuss the matter further but was interrupted by Sun Donghai's fierce gaze and immediately lowered his head.

"I know that we were going to support the Fourth Prince, but have you forgotten the reason why we were going to support him?"

Sun Donghai showed a serious expression and looked at all the elders who had their heads bowed, lost in thought.

Yes, the reason we were going to support the Eighth Prince was because he was the weakest and easiest to manipulate.

Now, he has revealed himself as the newest and unparalleled genius of the Eastern Region, a shrewd person who managed to hide his true abilities from the world until his cultivation reached the Saint level.

Many already consider him the greatest genius in the history of the Eastern Region and even of the entire Celestial Clouds Continent.

How could such arrogance submit easily?

In comparison, the Fourth Prince was considered the worst among all the others and, therefore, the best choice to be a puppet prince.

Of course, this conversation only occurred because, when Sun Yunling came to the Blue Lotus Sect, she did not reveal anything about Song Yang's identity, who was the Shura Palace Master.

In fact, she did not dare to speak about Song Yang during the brief time she was here.

'But... probably in the near future, Beiyang City will become a troubled place.'

'I hope Huo'er does not cause any problems during this period.'

Sun Donghai thought about his only disciple, who had gone to the auction that would be held in the city of Beiyang, and he could not help but feel a bit worried.

Since Sun Yunling left, Huo'er has been acting a bit strange. Therefore, Sun Donghai allowed his disciple to go out to relax a bit.

After all, Sun Yunling and Liang Huo grew up together, and for Sun Donghai, Liang Huo is more than a disciple; he is like a son.

After the meeting ended and all the elders present left the hall, leaving only Sun Donghai alone.

A young woman dressed in a maid's uniform entered the hall.

However, unlike the other maids, the cultivation of this young maid was surprisingly powerful for her young age, being at the initial stage of Soul Formation.

This level of cultivation was equivalent to that of a core disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect!

As soon as she saw Sun Donghai, she walked slowly toward him. When she reached in front of him, she bowed and respectfully greeted, "Sect Master"

"I have a task for you."

Sun Donghai showed a serious expression while looking at the maid.

"What is the mission, Sect Master?"

"I promise to go through rivers of fire and mountains of swords to complete it successfully!"

Seeing the maid speak with such a serious and exaggerated expression, Sun Donghai could not help but laugh a little before continuing:

"It's nothing like that. It's just for you to continue taking care of my daughter, especially now that she is pregnant."

Upon hearing what Sun Donghai said, the maid could not hide her happy smile.

Although she had been trained from a young age to be Sun Yunling's personal maid, she had always been treated well by Sun Yunling and even considers Sun Yunling an older sister.

Knowing that she could return to taking care of Sun Yunling made her show genuine happiness.

However, her smile quickly faded, giving way to an expression of concern and a hint of sadness as she asked Sun Donghai:

"But is she not at the Shura Palace? How can I take care of her?"

Seeing the look of sadness on the maid's face, Sun Donghai could not help but think that he had chosen the right person to be his daughter's personal maid.

After all, she had been trained for this since childhood and had grown up serving Sun Yunling.

Although she is not a core disciple, her status is still higher than that of a core disciple due to being Sun Yunling's personal maid.

Naturally, she is very grateful to Sun Yunling. After all, if it were not for the master-servant relationship, she would never have had access to the resources needed to achieve such a high level of cultivation at such a young age.

"Haha, don't worry about that."

Sun Donghai spoke as if there were no problem with sending her to take care of Sun Yunling at the Shura Palace.

In fact, there was no problem at all, as that same morning, an assassin from the Shura Palace had appeared and notified that the Palace Master had ordered the personal maid of Sun Yunling to be sent to take care of her.

Naturally, Sun Donghai had no problem with this and agreed promptly.

Beiyang City, Former Governor's Mansion

Inside the mansion, Song Yang was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed while cultivating.

When, suddenly, he sensed something and opened his eyes. An intimidating pressure erupted from his body, spreading in all directions around him.

The butler who had just entered the mansion couldn't help but break into a cold sweat upon sensing this aura and even regretted having come to disturb him.

"What happened?"

Song Yang, who had already stopped cultivating, stood up and looked at the butler with an indifferent gaze.

"Your Highness, someone has requested to see you."

The butler, gathering his courage, reported to Song Yang. But as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a terrifying aura that forced him to kneel.

Crack

As soon as the butler's knees hit the ground, countless cracks began to appear on the floor.

"Didn't I already warn you not to disturb me and that I do not want to see any of the main families?"

Hearing Song Yang's reprimand, the butler could not help but tremble, remembering how Song Yang had coldly killed the former governor. He could not help but be afraid and stammered as he continued:

"Your Highness… this time, it's not anyone from the main families. It's the head of the Yan Chamber of Commerce branch."
