Chapter 1230: Ulterior Motive
"On top of that, he's also harboring a massive..."
Immortal Envoy Feng Tian abruptly caught himself before he could utter the word "secret". In his excitement at the prospect of Han Li's capture, he had almost let slip some very sensitive information.
Lu Chuanfeng didn't pry into the matter, merely smiling as he asked, "What do you plan to do with him, Immortal Envoy Feng Tian?"
"Detain him for now, Palace Master Lu. I'll make a decision once I've reported this matter to the Heavenly Court. You and I will surely be rewarded handsomely for the capture of such an important fugitive," Immortal Envoy Feng Tian said with an excited smile.
Lu Chuanfeng's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this, but internally, he was feeling rather disgruntled.
He was the sole contributor to Han Li's capture, yet Immortal Envoy Feng Tian had suddenly made it a two-man job.
On top of that, given his status in the Heavenly Court, most of the reward was most likely going to fall upon him.
Immortal Envoy Feng Tian could sense Lu Chuanfeng's dissatisfaction, but his smile remained unchanged as he said, "Make sure to keep a close eye on him, Palace Master Lu. I'm going to report this matter directly to the Heavenly Court through my communication array plate, and I must not be interrupted in the process."
Lu Chuanfeng nodded in response, and Immortal Envoy Feng Tian immediately sat down with his legs crossed, then flipped a hand over to produce a palm-sized, white jade plate.
He cast an incantation seal into the jade plate, and it rose up into the air on its own, following which all of the patterns on its surface lit up to form a series of runes that began to revolve rapidly over the array plate.
Immortal Envoy Feng Tian closed his eyes upon seeing this, then began to chant an incantation, and a ring-shaped rune surfaced over his glabella before projecting a beam of white light onto the array plate.
