Under the cold moonlight, a lone boat was floating on the lake. On the boat, a man wearing a straw raincoat with an unclear face was fishing alone.
After an unknown period of time, another person came alone on a boat in the silent reeds.
"There is new news from the State of Qin. The King of Qin has no plans to summon Ran Xiu back. However, the Eight Petites are on their way to Xinzheng.”Before Bai Yifei could ask, the man in the straw raincoat told him the latest information he had received.
"It seems that Ran Xiu belongs to the Qin King's faction. Lu Buwei got the news and thought that we were afraid of Ran Xiu.
However, if that was the case, why did Lu Buwei agree to Ran Xiu's diplomatic mission? And what was the real purpose of Ran Xiu's diplomatic mission?”From the reactions of the King of Qin and Lu Buwei, Bai Yifei knew that Ran Xiu had come to the Han Kingdom with a big plan.
"I can't get any information about this. However, the shadow is not separated from the form. A target worthy of the Eight Petites 'collective appearance must be someone who had to die.
Ran Xiu was the only one in Xinzheng City who was worthy of the Eight Petites 'help. It was a pity that he was about to die just as he placed a spy beside him. It was a waste of effort.”In the eyes of the visitor, Ran Xiu was dead for sure after being targeted by the Eight Petites.
"It's easier to control her when she's young, and no one expected such a young girl to be a spy.”The visitor had thought that the snow maidens were young and could dispel some of Ran Xiu's wariness, allowing her to gather information. Little did he know that Ran Xiu had seen through the snow maidens 'identity as spies with a single glance.
"What a pity. I thought it would be an interesting opponent. I didn't expect it to be goodbye so soon.”Baiyi was not ignorant of Ran Xiu's background. Naturally, he did not think that he would be able to escape from the Eight Petites. Moreover, when the time came, Night would not show any mercy.
"Oh right, there's a mysterious force that has come into contact with Tian Ze. I don't know what they've discussed, but it might have some impact on the plan.”After chatting with Ran Xiu, the man in the straw raincoat told Bai Yifei the latest information he had about Tian Ze.
"Mysterious forces, mysterious forces appearing one after another. Is it a coincidence or is it the same group of forces?”Baiyi did not think that the second time was a coincidence, but the third time was definitely a problem.
"They should be from the same faction. We haven't found any traces of those people either. They seemed to have suddenly appeared in various countries and then gathered in Han Country. Finally, they found Tian Ze. Their goal should also be to bring chaos to the Han Country.”The guest was very wary of this force that had suddenly appeared. With his intelligence network, he couldn't find any traces of it.
He only managed to find some clues when the other party started to make a move. With this ability, the man in the straw raincoat felt that the other party might be plotting more than just the Han Country.
"It doesn't matter anymore. In front of absolute power, they don't stand a chance at all. They're too naive to think that they can overthrow the Han Country just by joining forces with Tian Ze.”Bai Yifei, on the other hand, was full of confidence. No matter how big a force was, it would never be able to show itself in public.
Besides, the partners they chose were under his control. Baiyi felt that they could only be stepping stones.

"What? There are remnants of the Yue people causing trouble?" King Han slammed his palm on the table. He was obviously shocked by what Ji Wuye had said.
"The capital has always been guarded by your army. Now that such a disaster has occurred, how do you explain it?”Since King Han was able to ascend the throne and make Ji Wuye treat him respectfully on the surface no matter what he thought, it showed that he was not an idiot.
Upon hearing Ji Wuye's words, King Han's first reaction was to think that Ji Wuye was protesting against him secretly cutting off part of his military power last time. However, he did not say so on the surface. Instead, he questioned his dereliction of duty and even planned how to cut off Ji Wuye's power in his heart.
"Armies are useful in dealing with normal disasters, but they used witchcraft in this disaster. Ordinary soldiers can't withstand it.”Ji Wuye naturally understood what King Han meant. However, he was not afraid at all. There was even a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth.
" Witchcraft?!" Upon hearing Ji Wuye's words, King Han was obviously a little flustered.
"There are many fires in the city, and the fires spread for days. They are not extinguished, and they are even more powerful when they encounter water. Only the sorcerers of the Bai Yue know how to use this kind of sorcery.
Young Master Han investigated the murder of the Left Sima, which led to a person who should not have appeared, the former Right Sima, Li Kai. Although Li Kai had already been burned to death, he might have left a hidden agenda. This chaos might have been his doing.”
Since the corpses found in the dungeon of the Scorpion Gate were all about the same age as Li Kai, Ji Wuye thought that Li Kai was already dead. However, Li Kai was still the scapegoat. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to do anything to Han Fei.
"In that case, we must do our best to quell the chaos and return the capital to peace. Be it humans or ghosts, we must completely eliminate them.”The matter of the Bai Yue was of great importance, and the King of Han was no longer in the mood to plot anything. He only wished to suppress the chaos as soon as possible.
"Yes, the Blood Red Marquis Baiyi is not the commander in chief when we attacked the Bai Yue. He is currently in the city and can be of help.”Ji Wuye understood that King Han wanted to quell the rebellion as soon as possible, so he was not worried that King Han would reject his request.
"Then I'll order you and Baiyifei to strengthen the city's guards.”King Han only hesitated for a moment before agreeing to Ji Wuye's suggestion. Moreover, he did not have anyone he could rely on, so he could only rely on Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei.
Apart from the first time, the envoy of the State of Qin did not attack again. Moreover, he was in contact with Ji Wuye, Ninth Brother, and Fourth Brother. Was he a lecher? The King of Han wondered if he should urge Ran Xiu. No matter what, he had to get rid of Ji Wuye.
" This Old Nine…" King Han didn't like Han Fei much in the first place. Now that Han Fei had caused such a big trouble, even though he knew that Ji Wuye was deliberately provoking him, King Han didn't intend to let Han Fei continue to be so reckless.
