"What does the person want to discuss?" Fade continued to ask.
Jovian's expression changed slightly. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Perhaps the person wants to discuss the reconstruction of tombs and the donation of resources."
Fade was stunned when he heard this. Soon, he realized something.
He said in a deep voice, "Does this mean that someone is unhappy with Mulji's order and wants to collude with you to go against him?"
Jovian nodded and said, "Yes, you are correct."
"After all, Mulji made a hasty decision. This is a very aggressive way to seek funding. It's natural that everyone wants to go against him."
Fade continued to ask, "Are you sure you can trust this person who wrote this to you? What happens if it's a trap?"
Jovian said, "It's very unlikely that it's a trap."
"Because the flower imprinted on this paper is the hyacinth flower. It represents the royal family of Great Hsia Domain. The symbols on it is a type of secret language that was originally used to communicate within the royal family."
"There are not many people within the domain who knows this. The other party is very likely to be a member of the royal family or perhaps one of the powerful families."
After a moment of silence, Fade asked Jovian, "What do you think? Are you going to meet up with this person?"
"This...." Jovian hesitated, unable to make a decision right away.
After all, he definitely did not want to give his resources to Mulji.
However, he knew that there would be serious consequences if Mulji found out that he went to a secret meeting.
Therefore, Jovian did not know whether to accept the invitation or not.
"Let's head back to the hotel first!" Seeing this, Fade did not continue to ask.
He wanted to discuss this matter with Nile. After all, he was in charge of the Thunder Plan. Therefore, he was the best person to make the decision.
The carriage soon arrived back at the hotel.
Fade immediately went straight to the room to find Nile and told him about the invitation.
Nile thought for a moment, then slammed his palm on the table. He looked at Fade and said, "He has to accept the invitation."
"Huh?" Fade was slightly surprised.
After all, there was definitely a risk of being exposed if Jovian agreed to the secret meeting. If Mulji did find out about this meeting, not only Jovian would be in trouble, Nile and Fade's identities would be exposed, and the Thunder Plan would also be affected.
Therefore, in terms of safety, they should not accept the invitation.
However, Nile seemed to have different ideas. He saw through Fade's doubts and explained, "Yes, for the sake of our safety, we should not participate."
"However, this is also an opportunity."
"Regardless if this is a trap or not, those who attend this meeting are clearly dissatisfied with Mulji."
"If we can use this opportunity to form a collusion with them. This will give us a confidence boost in dealing with Mulji. Besides, once he's gone, it will be easier for us to control the chaos."
Fade hadn't thought of this. Nile was already planning to take charge of Great Hsia Domain. He was looking at the long term picture.
"But, of course, we should be careful. After all, it may also be a trap." Nile added, "So, we have to attend this secret meeting, but we have to use the Appearance Transformation. We must not expose our true identities. Jovian cannot attend this meeting."
Fade nodded. Then, he said, "I'll go."
After all, he possessed the Six Arts Book, which he obtained from Haykal, the grandson of the governor of Great Song Domain and one of the skills in the book was the Appearance Transformation. Fade had not used it yet and this was the perfect opportunity to use it.
Nile was not pretentious. He nodded and said, "Alright then. You may attend the secret meeting."
"You have to be careful. Your safety have to be your priority."
