Chapter 321: Killing Intent in the Imperial Prison
At those words, the blue-robed Daoist fell into a thoughtful expression, then looked at the middle-aged man for a long moment, "Going there is no trouble on my part. But are you certain that what you have mentioned will actually be enough to get the Imperial Dragon Divine Sword from that Eighth Prince?"
The middle-aged man raised his head slightly and looked at the blue-robed Daoist, a meaningful gleam in his eyes, "If that Eighth Prince is truly as interested in those things as the intelligence suggests, I can say with confidence that he will at least consider Elder Brother's request."
The blue-robed Daoist thought for only a brief moment, then tossed aside the wine jar in his hand and said, "In that case, there is no time to waste. I will go pay that Eighth Prince a visit right now."

Li Ruan'an, with the disguised Huo Xian at her side, passed through layer after layer of iron-locked gates and at last came to a stop before a cell at the deepest end of the prison.
Inside, under the dim yellow light of an oil lamp, Li Zhi sat cross-legged in cultivation as he always did, utterly absorbed, seemingly deaf to everything outside the cell.
Li Ruan'an stood before the cell door and looked at Li Zhi.
At that, Li Zhi slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Li Ruan'an outside, then withdrew his gaze and said, "Elder Sister, what brings you to visit me today?"
