The Heavenly Saints Emperor was already under a lot of pressure. After hearing the words of the people from the three great sects, he felt like a mountain was placed on his shoulders. He also understood why these people had come to the Ninth Lord’s Estate. It was to strengthen Xue Fanxin’s stance so that she would have more bargaining chips to negotiate with him.
It seemed that he had really shot himself in the foot this time. He had wanted to get the green crystals back, but he had not even seen their shadow. Instead, he was the one who was going to bleed. He really regretted his actions!
He had always been scared of Ye Jiushang. This time, he had actually acted foolishly. He was naive enough to think that he could attack Xue Fanxin without restraint just because he was not around. Although he had never thought of taking her life, but…
Sigh, what was the point of thinking about this now? He should obediently wait for Xue Fanxin to raise all kinds of conditions. This little woman loved money, so she would probably make some requests related to that. This shouldn’t be difficult for him…
While the Heavenly Saints Emperor was lost in his thoughts, Xue Fanxin finished chatting with the people from the three great sects. She turned her focus to the Heavenly Saints Emperor. “Your Majesty, my request is very simple. You just have to capture Su Baifeng for me. Also, I want you to punish the people from the Prime Minister’s Estate, including Su Wanlian.”
“Ninth Imperial Consort, aren’t you just making things difficult for me? It’s not difficult to punish the people from the Prime Minister’s Estate, but if you want me to capture Su Baifeng, I really can’t do it. She was saved by her mother, who is from the Ten Thousand Flower Sect, also considered an otherworldly sect. I’m merely the ruler of the secular world. How can I go to the otherworldly mystic realm to capture people? Only the three great sects can do this.” The Heavenly Saints Emperor had not expected Xue Fanxin to make such a difficult request. He pushed this matter to the three great sects. He could not do it anyway.
Although the three great sects knew his intentions, his hands were indeed tied. There might be a chance for them. After all, the Ten Thousand Flower Sect was not a small sect. Though it could not compare to them, it still had some strength overall. Furthermore, the three great sects more or less had some dealings with the Ten Thousand Flower Sect… This was not easy to deal with!
When Xue Fanxin heard the Heavenly Saints Emperor’s words and looked at the reactions of the people from the three great sects, she already knew what was going on.
It would probably be difficult for her to capture Su Baifeng. She could only personally go and find her if she wanted to kill her.
She felt that the longer she kept Su Baifeng, the more trouble she would cause. It was best to deal with her as soon as possible.
She also hoped that the three great sects would help, but this was her personal matter. Furthermore, they did not really want to help her. They were only barely standing on her side because of Bai Wuchen. She would not have too much hope for such variables, nor would she let them do such an important thing for her.
As for the Heavenly Saints Emperor…
“Your Majesty, don’t be anxious. I was just saying. If Su Baifeng was so easy to catch, I’d have caught her long ago. But that Su Wanlian is easy prey, right?”
Since she could not do anything to Su Baifeng for the time being, she would start with that old witch Su Wanlian and settle all her old and new scores.
“Alright, I can help you deal with Su Wanlian and even take away the position of Consort Su. As long as you control the situation, these things can be discussed.”
“Sure.”
Xue Fanxin agreed so readily that the Heavenly Saints Emperor felt that it was unrealistic.
This little woman who loved money had actually not mentioned a word about money to him?
How strange.
