Chapter 1672 - 1672: Can’t be mistaken, it’s him
Chapter 1672: Chapter 1672: Can’t be mistaken, it’s him
“Zhan Beiye, you all stay here, don’t go up.” He turned around and spoke to Zhan Beiye.
“What?”
Zhan Beiye was stunned.
He was all ready, just waiting to show his mettle.
But now, he was told he didn’t need to go up. Were they trying to drive him mad? He wanted to see Jade Cloud Mountain Peak for himself.
“Why can’t I go up? Aren’t we going to gather herbs? More people means more strength, right?” he said.
“They don’t need to go up either.”
Qian Jiyun glanced at the palace guards and Su Tang.
“Your task is to take good care of him.”
While he spoke, Xiang Qiyan, who had been quietly unconscious in his space, was already placed beside him, along with the bed, shocking everyone so much they nearly cried out.
“This… Qian Jiyun, is it very dangerous to go to Jade Cloud Mountain Peak?”
Zhan Beiye hesitated for a long time before finally asking him. He knew that the space came into being together with Qian Jiyun, and if Qian Jiyun encountered danger, the space would disappear along with him.
Now that he had moved Xiang Qiyan out, did that mean going up to Jade Cloud Mountain Peak was a very dangerous matter?
“No, it’s just that Qiyan can’t use many abilities inside, so I can’t take him.” Qian Jiyun explained.
“None of them are going up?”
Zhan Beiye looked at the palace guards, his eyes brimming with blatant disappointment.
How were these damn fools allowed to stay behind? Not needing to go up—they had no sense of justice. Why did he feel like these people should be the ones gathering herbs above?
“Fine, if I’m not going up then so be it. I’ll take care of Qiyan.” He nodded.
“I’ll leave them with you.”
An Jiuyue moved her right hand, and five Paper Men appeared in her palm, which she handed to Zhan Beiye.
They were going to Jade Cloud Mountain Peak, and who knows when they would come down. This place was the Zhedu Sea Area, and whether or not demonic beasts would come was uncertain, but the Liushang Sect’s people had never shown up, so they had to stay vigilant.
“Okay.”
Zhan Beiye wouldn’t refuse An Jiuyue’s kindness and directly took the Paper People into his hands.
Honestly, he was incredibly curious about the Paper People—the more he could get, the better. More was always better, and since they were to protect Xiang Qiyan, ensuring safety was paramount.
After arranging everything that needed to be arranged, Qian Jiyun and his companion were ready to ascend Jade Cloud Mountain Peak.
Meanwhile, Zhan Beiye ordered the palace guards to move Xiang Qiyan, along with the bed, away from Jade Cloud Mountain, back to their original location, quite close to where Brother Zheen and the others were.
“Isn’t that…”
Xuanyuan Zimo was completely stunned at the sight of Xiang Qiyan on the bed.
Among those present, only she had seen King Yan in person at close quarters, so she couldn’t be wrong. The person lying motionlessly on the bed was indeed King Yan himself.
So, these palace guards were King Yan’s men, and Zhan Beiye, Qian Jiyun, and these people—were they all here to look for medicinal herbs for King Yan?
“What is that?”
Brother Zheen looked towards Xiang Qiyan and asked Xuanyuan Zimo beside him.
“Have you seen that man?” he inquired.
“I have.”
Xuanyuan Zimo nodded and whispered into Brother Zheen’s ear in a lowered voice.
“The King Yan of the Xiang Dynasty, I have had the fortune to see him up close once. I won’t mistake him, it’s him.”
“Him?”
Brother Zheen was momentarily taken aback.
Thinking about it, these people really were significant figures. King Yan of the Xiang Dynasty was the most likely candidate to take over as the Crown Prince of the Xiang Dynasty.
