Chapter 22: Ye Yu: The Male Slave's True Identity
The large black butterfly fluttered through the night, flitting gracefully past all the houses. Finally, it stilled its wings in front of a large residence with an impressive entrance.
Dongfang Jianming looked up. “Su Residence” was inscribed on the door plaque, rousing his suspicion. “Why would the Fragrance Detecting Butterfly come here?”
“Your Highness?” The leader of the guards looked curiously at Dongfang Jianming.
“Knock on the door,” Dongfang Jianming ordered coldly.
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Immediately, the leader of the guards went to knock on the door. When the servants learned that the Crown Prince himself was visiting the Su Residence, they quickly welcomed him in.
The head of the Su Clan was at a spiritual retreat, so his son, Su Junqing, welcomed the Crown Prince instead. He asked in surprise, “Your Highness, what is the purpose of your visit so late at night?”
Dongfang Jianming scowled silently. He lifted his finger and the Fragrance Detecting Butterfly immediately flapped its wings and flew into the front of the Su Residence. It stopped at the entrance of an Elixir Production Room.
Dongfang Jianming barged in with his men and pried open the Elixir Production Furnace. There, he discovered a drop of faint purple essence from the Violets of the Netherworld.
