Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1558

Chapter 1558: Lie Peiqi

Xiao Tiandi accepted Wang Wei’s invitation, so he teleported to his room. "Lin Fan, this is Xiao Tiandi. Xiao Tiandi, this is Lin Fan," Wang Wei introduced them.

"We know each other," Lin Fan said as he saluted Xiao Tiandi, who returned the favor.

"You do?"

"Our masters know each other and are considered friends, so we’ve met and can be considered acquaintances," Xiao Tiandi replied, but he was slightly distracted. He observed how comfortable Wang Wei’s lounging chair was and condensed one for himself.

"I forgot about that," Wang Wei nodded. He remembered Kong used to buy information from Xun Junyao, just like he did. Since he invited everyone, Wang Wei poured the wine. The Pure Art Blue Mansion had its own unique brew called the Lustful Immortal Dream, which can be considered top class among all the wines in the world.

"You still haven’t told me why you’re here?"

"The Butterfly Princess invited my master," Xiao Tiandi replied as he enjoyed his win.

"A meeting between the current and former most beautiful woman?" Lin Fan commented. His nose almost bled thinking of such a sight, and he wasn’t the only one.

"Pervert," Wang Wei mocked.

"Don’t tell me you weren’t picturing it too," Lin Fan sneered.

"I’ll have you know I also imagined my wife being present. Can you say the same?"

Lin Fan was immediately tongue-tied. "Alright, we know we can’t argue with your golden tongue."

"Speak for yourself," Xiao Tiandi rebutted before looking at Wang Wei smugly. "I don’t need to picture other people."

"So, you admit you have impure thoughts about your master?"

Xao Tiandi almost spilled his cup. "Bastard, can’t you show a little bit of respect?"

Wang Wei ignored him. Bullying these two was too easy. Their wives might put up a better fight. "Why does the Butterfly Princess want to see your master?"

"She claimed it was to help with new work. As you know, my master enjoys great art." Indeed, Xun Junyao was renowned for her passion for art. That’s why her birthday required a performance by all the participants.

"As soon as you said these words, I smelled conspiracy. I’m surprise you didn’t," Wang Wei commented.

"Conspiracy? Why would there be a conspiracy?... Do you suspect the Butterfly Prince is scheming for my master’s perfection?"

"If you look at the princess’s life closely, you will find many anomalies. She has never left the Qin Dynasty. She has rejected every marriage proposal she received, which wouldn’t be an issue if not for the fact that no one from Qin has ever proposed to her.

"Well, that’s not entirely true. The one prince who died was soon exiled and never returned to the capital. The odd thing is that even the Human Emperor himself was never tempted by her beauty. You could argue he’s a disciplined man, so he controlled himself.

"But you mean to tell me such an ambitious man would not be tempted by her talent to help people break through? Based on the Human Emperor’s personality, he should have already acquired or destroyed her — not just imprisoned her in this city."

"It’s also odd that a courtesan has the word princess in her title," Lin Fan added. "Unless the Human Emperor accepted that title, many people would have impeached her, and even destroyed the mansion out of fury or as an excuse to eliminate her." An idea suddenly flashed in his mind. "Do you think she’s a secret Qin Princess?"

"The name is indeed a great indicator," Wang Wei nodded. He felt like he was catching on to something.

"Forget about her name. What conspiracy could she have against my master?"

"How should I know? I just think the invite is suspicious," Wang Wei shrugged.

Xiao Tiandi stared at him. "Forget it, I’ll think about it myself. Conspiracy, conspiracy, conspiracy...The master said an artist of the princess’s level no longer has anything to prove, so her new work must be something crucial — something personal that surpasses her previous work.

"Her new work? Does the Butterfly Princess wish to use the master’s physique to perfect her new work? No, maybe she wants to create the perfect work of art." Xiao Tiandi stood up and immediately teleported away.

"Love — isn’t it a beautiful thing?" Wang Wei sighed deeply. However, Lin Fan did not answer him. Instead, the latter had a deep frown plastered on his face.

"What’s wrong?"

"I have a sudden bad feeling about this."

"You should."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Fanb gave him a hard stare before disappearing. Xiao Tiandi snorted coldly before returning to his private room. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
