Chapter 3083 Discovery_1
```
Emperor Xue Ye stared intently into Ning Fengzhi's eyes and said word by word, "Sect Master Ning, though you say this, what if the royal household is unable to find evidence to convict Martial Soul Hall?"
If Martial Soul Hall dared to make a move, they would absolutely leave no evidence behind!
Ning Fengzhi, at a loss for words, responded, "This… your majesty, what you said makes sense. What do you plan to do next?"
Let's not consider whether it was the work of Martial Soul Hall!
The primary objective is to ensure the safety of the other princes; otherwise, the same tragedy may happen again!
Without hesitation, Xue Ye answered, "I intend to send all the princes to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. There are many Soul Masters there, safety can be assured."
Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up, "Emperor Xue Ye, does this include Qing He among those princes?"
Emperor Xue Ye shook his head, denying the remark, "No, I have other plans for Qing He!!"
Even if all the princes were victims, he didn't wish for Qing He to suffer the slightest mishap!
Understanding the situation, Ning Fengzhi did not inquire further, "It seems Emperor Xue Ye is already well-prepared, I will say no more!"
However, the always silent Gu Rong suddenly spoke up, "Emperor Xue Ye, forgive my bluntness, has the fourth prince been buried? Perhaps, I can discern something from his body!"
Though Du Gu Bo was a Titled Douluo, he had not yet become a Hyper Douluo!
If it were himself, he might be able to discover some clues!
It was Ning Fengzhi's turn to be puzzled, "Uncle Bone, how could you..."
But Emperor Xue Ye interrupted, "Thank you, Bone Douluo. However, the body of the fourth prince has already been buried a few days ago."
Gu Rong nodded in understanding, "I see, then, Emperor Xue Ye, just pretend I never mentioned it!"
Isn't Emperor Xue Ye keen on uncovering the mastermind?
Why the rush to bury the fourth prince?
Is there a critical message being concealed?
He personally felt it was highly plausible!
Ning Fengzhi, too, narrowed his eyes, also sensing this circumstance…
However, he chose not to say anything…
Just then, Qing He stepped into the hall…
He bowed, "Your Highness, son pays his respect to the emperor!"
Emperor Xue Ye nodded slightly, "Qing He, you need not be so formal."
Qing He's timely arrival also conveniently diverted the topic at hand!
Only then did Qing He turn to Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong, "Teacher, Elder Bone Douluo!"
The former chuckled, "Qing He, you are finally here, staying in the imperial palace all this while; I thought you were no longer willing to go to the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect!"
While the latter simply gave him a look, without saying much…
Qing He immediately clasped his fists, "Teacher, it wasn't intentional. Due to the frequent occurrences at the imperial palace of late, it has been difficult for me to leave."
Ning Fengzhi quickly waved his hand, "Qing He, I was merely jesting just now, don't take it to heart!"
"The reason for my visit was actually to see whether you have been neglecting your duties."
Qing He hurriedly replied, "I dare not. Although you were not by my side, Teacher, I have always remembered your teachings."
The atmosphere had been somewhat off just now, and it seems his interruption came right in the mid of their conversation…
Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi also gave him a trusting look, "Qing He, I naturally believe that you would not be negligent. However, due to the incident with the fourth prince, as the Crown Prince, your current situation may not be very favorable."
Since the adversary's aim is to eliminate the princes, as the Crown Prince, Qing He is naturally the primary target!
The expression on Qing He's face did not change, "Thank you for your concern, Teacher. However, the emperor has already assigned more Soul Master protectors for me, I shouldn't be in any danger!"
…
Within the boundless ruins…

Xie Xie felt dizzy and immediately stopped his spiritual power detection, then flopped down onto his butt…
With an irritated face, he said, "I'm exhausted, after such a long time of searching, my spiritual power is nearly depleted, and there's not a single response around!!"
"It's really infuriating!"
At first, he was able to calm himself, but after several hours had passed with no discovery, he couldn't help but complain!
Yue Zhengyu also shook his head and sighed, "I haven't sensed anything either, could it be that Teacher Xu didn't leave behind any power at all?"
Truth be told, if it wasn't for his companions still searching, he would have left long ago!
He had absolutely no desire to do this kind of needle in a haystack search!
Xu Xiaoyan nodded, "Um… I haven't found anything either, shall we leave? After all, it's not easy for us to get together today!"
Ye Xinglan blinked, "Hmm, I was thinking the same thing. On such a rare occasion, we should really work on building our relationships!"
Yuanen Yehui was very indifferent, "I'm fine with whatever, no need to consider me!"
Xu Lizhi hurriedly spoke up, "Everyone, please be patient a little longer, Wulin and Gu Yue are still searching. Maybe it won't be long before a surprise appears!"
Upon saying this, the others immediately fixed their gazes on him…
In an instant, he felt the atmosphere shift…
"Ha… haha, although my spiritual power is weak and I can't be of much help, I can at least lighten everyone's mood!"
Damn, he had forgotten that he was the least qualified to say such things!
Sure enough, Xie Xie gritted his teeth and said, "Lizhi, you can't just sit around doing nothing just because you have weak spiritual power!"
Yue Zhengyu joined in, "Exactly, you look completely unexhausted, shouldn't you contribute some of your power?"
Others, including Ye Xinglan, although they didn't speak, they didn't stop them either!
Xu Lizhi suddenly realized, "I get it!"
The next second, he released his Martial Soul…
The Soul Rings at his feet flashed continuously…
In no time, dozens of buns appeared in his hands…
He immediately handed these to Xie Xie and Yue Zhengyu…
"Xie Xie, Zheng Yu, although these buns won't quickly restore spiritual power, they should at least alleviate your tiredness!"
It was somewhat perceptible that the complexions of Xie Xie and the others instantly darkened…
This guy, did he misunderstand something?
After eating these buns, they didn't feel tired, but in the end, were they not the ones who suffered??
Just then, a strong fluctuation unexpectedly emanated from the front…
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!!"
Everyone immediately snapped to attention and hurried over…
What they saw was a faint green glow in Gu Yuena's hand…
Xie Xie widened his eyes, asking the question that was on everyone's mind…
"Gu Yue, this… could this be Life Force??"
Gu Yuena glanced at her palm and nodded, "Yes, it's very weak, but I can feel that this wisp of green energy contains a strong breath of life!"
"It's most likely the Life Force that Teacher Xu left behind!!"
