Feng Tianjiao did not understand why Feng Chengzhi said that. Wiping away the tears on her face, she listened quietly.
"Today, although most of the people present appeared calm, there was one person who I felt was not quite right," Feng Chengzhi recalled the expressions of everyone in Leaving the Royal Palace and spoke slowly.
Ouyang Zixin seemed a bit distracted, lost in thought. Meanwhile, Yun Tianmo's expression was cold, seemingly no different from usual. However, this lack of difference was the biggest problem.
Why?
Yun Tianmo represented Cloud Nation, and the alliance between Cloud Nation and Exiled Nation to suppress Dream Nation had been ongoing for some time. Now that a prince of Dream Nation had died, this was no small matter. Even Nangong Yao's lazy demeanor showed that he did not care about Feng Chengxuan's death, but how could Yun Tianmo remain so calm?
His eyes were so tranquil that they raised doubts.
Feng Tianjiao lowered her head and recalled that she had not focused on Yun Tianmo today, so she couldn't remember anything.
"That's not your fault," Feng Chengzhi continued.
"There are rumors that Yun Tianmo cherishes Ouyang Zixin like a treasure. Nangong Tuo once had designs on Ouyang Zixin but was rebuffed. Yet today, Ouyang Zixin was clearly absent-minded, and he seemed oblivious to it. Isn't that strange?"
A beloved woman was right beside him, yet he was distracted; not only did he show no concern, but he also acted as if nothing had happened. This was indeed suspicious.
As Feng Chengzhi analyzed the situation, Feng Tianjiao gradually understood his concerns. Every royal child was no fool; the implications here were truly significant.
"Fifth Brother, do you think it's possible that Big Brother was actually killed by Yun Tianmo?" When Feng Tianjiao voiced this speculation, she herself was startled.
If it really is Yun Tianmo, then he would have no rivals among his peers. Now that he can even break through Sealing Space, who could possibly survive if he decides to take action?
Feng Chengzhi pondered for a moment, seemingly considering the possibility of Feng Tianjiao's speculation seriously.
Although he had doubts, he had never thought in that direction. He merely wondered if Yun Tianmo had discovered something, like that fake list.
Before entering the palace today, he clearly saw Sito Rongyan beside Si Tu Rong Bao, but when he turned around, the figure was gone.
However, the topic of the Fake List had not come up again, making him question whether he had guessed wrong. Now that Feng Tianjiao mentioned that the one who might take action could be Yun Tianmo, it gave him new thoughts.
"If it is Yun Tianmo, then what is his purpose?"
Feng Chengxuan, like them, was treated as a hostage of Dream Nation. Although he sat high on the platform, it was merely a facade; without freedom, it was all the same.
To kill them in the Capital of the Departed Nation would be a piece of cake for Yun Tianmo since Nan Gong Yao would definitely not intervene. So why would Yun Tianmo need to act under everyone's watch?
Or does he simply want to show off his superior cultivation?
That wouldn't be like Yun Tianmo; by nature, he was aloof and would never have such thoughts.
"But if it's not him, then who else could it be?"
Feng Chengzhi found himself trapped in a deadlock; it seemed impossible to find any other possibilities besides Yun Tianmo. But if he determined that it was indeed Yun Tianmo taking action, then what was the purpose? What method would be used?
The siblings from Dream Nation were not the only ones troubled by this question.
In Ouyang Xuan's Mansion, Ouyang Hao sat alone in the study, watching the flickering candlelight and pondering the same question.
This matter could not possibly have been orchestrated by the Exiled Nation, because if Nan Gong Yao were to arrange such a thing, he would have had to inform Ouyang Hao.
Since it couldn't be the Exiled Nation, that left only the Dream Nation and the Cloud Nation.
The people of the Dream Nation would not resort to such underhanded tactics; at least Bai Zhan from the Bai Clan was an ally of Feng Chengxuan. Those who wish to harm others might themselves become targets.
If someone from the Dream Nation were to take action, it would likely be against the Fifth Prince, Feng Chengzhi. In Feng Chengzhi's eyes, Feng Chengxuan was his only rival; as long as he eliminated him, he would return to the Dream Nation as the sole heir.
But would Feng Chengzhi be foolish enough to act at such a time?
"Or perhaps taking risks is the only way to truly remain inconspicuous?" Ouyang Hao muttered to himself.
Though this thought seemed somewhat absurd, it was not entirely impossible. After all, his kneeling in the palace today and bowing three times was precisely what Feng Chengzhi had successfully orchestrated. It was entirely within reason and expectation.
"Let’s consider this as one possibility; now, what remains is the Cloud Nation..."
If it were the Cloud Nation, then who could it be? There was no need for further thought; the answer was obvious.
Yet this answer was not one Ouyang Hao wished to see. If it were indeed him, did Xin'er know?
Speaking of which, Xin'er seemed somewhat out of sorts today.
Is it really him?
Ouyang Hao was shocked by his own speculation, not because he was surprised that Yun Tianmo would take action, but because he was astonished that Yun Tianmo would choose this moment to act; it was simply extremely irrational.
Is Yun Tianmo irrational?
Indeed!
"You are being ridiculous!"
Rong Yi glared at Yun Tianmo, clearly very angry. "You want to kill him and are afraid of missing the opportunity? Why did you have to choose the Duel Arena?"
Yun Tianying also found it somewhat unbelievable. He had not been with Yun Tianmo today and only just learned about this matter. As for his visit to the palace, it was entirely due to the poison in Bai Zhan's possession.
Facing the questions from the two, Yun Tianmo continued to write something calmly at the desk.
"What? Now you don't even care about your master?" Rong Yi became even angrier upon seeing this, snorting and preparing to leave in a huff.
Yun Tianmo finally spoke up, "If you want to kill, then kill. Why worry so much?"
Wherever you kill, it's still killing, right?
Rong Yi was momentarily speechless by his words. In his younger days, hadn't he been just like this? This disciple truly resembled him completely.
"Mo, do you have some kind of plan?" Yun Tianying attempted to mediate. Although the master and disciple had often bickered over the years, today felt different, so he tried to change the subject. "Master Rong is also worried about you. If you have any new plans, you should share them."
"Hmph, who cares about him!"
"What is there to worry about!"
After they spoke, both paused for a moment, and the tension in the room inexplicably dissipated, which relieved Yun Tianying.
"Are you really going to continue like this?" You can kill whenever you want?
Yun Tianmo was deeply focused on his brushwork, showing no signs of stopping. "Exactly!"
"Don't you care about that Girl?" Rong Yi frowned, feeling somewhat helpless.
"It doesn't matter." I will explain it to her myself.
Yun Tianmo seemed quite pleased with his work, dropped the brush, and waved his sleeve as he left.
This left Rong Yi and Yun Tianying looking at the table, where there was only one character written—
Hatred! (To be continued.)
