Chapter 783: How Many People Must He Scheme Against to Be Satisfied
Eunuch Hong had come from the palace, after all, and was not one to spout auspicious pleasantries. In his early years, he had served at Yan Ruchu's side. After Yan Ruchu passed away, he ought to have been sent to guard the Imperial Mausoleum.
Yet, he had appeared here instead.
Eunuch Hong invited Chen Changsheng and Fang Miao to sit in the long corridor, then poured them tea.
When the conversation turned to business, Eunuch Hong did not beat around the bush. "I assume you are here regarding Tianxin Martial Master, Mister?"
He had already guessed that Tianxin's situation was inextricably tied to Mister Chen.
Chen Changsheng nodded. "Tianxin has already been subdued by This Chen, but a few doubts still remain."
"Please ask, Mister. This servant will answer whatever he knows."
"Is the Southern Yan Sect connected to that Evil Phoenix?"
Eunuch Hong nodded. "I encountered it after leaving the palace. Relying on the Imperial Jade Talisman left behind by His Majesty, I suppressed that Evil Phoenix. According to the phoenix, its soul was severely damaged at the time. Furthermore, since it had personally taken on the mantle of a celestial official, it was bound to obey the Son of Heaven's orders. Therefore, the Imperial Jade Talisman left behind by His Majesty took effect."
