Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1754

1754 The Cangyan Door’s Plan 2

“We are extending our help to you because we also require your a.s.sistance, especially in times of chaos when we may be unable to protect ourselves,” Mu Ning stated bluntly.

This level of candor was necessary in the current situation.

If he wavered or showed any signs of solely coveting the Golden Rolls, their offer would undoubtedly be rejected.

The Phoenix Girl was cautious of their intentions.

Their objective was to ensure the Phoenix Girl let go of her defensiveness.

After listening to their words…

Zhou Huaijin acknowledged their point…

The Cangyan Door wasn’t as troublesome as he had initially thought, and they were being upfront about their own motives, which were now laid bare…

However…

Zhou Huaijin shook his head earnestly and replied, “Young Head, I appreciate your offer. But I cannot accept it.”

“…”

“We already have a plan for s.h.i.+ling Palace.”

“…”

“And I can’t just give Pheonix Girl any pressure just because I need something.”

” “…”

“I have accepted your kindness. If I am able to offer you help, I definitely will. As for Phoenix Girl… that is her own decision, which is not within my territory.” Zhou Huaijin said frankly.

Mu Ning appeared visibly surprised.

They had humbled themselves by offering such a significant gift, only to be rejected by the King?

The young King held himself in high regard, unaware of what the Cangyan Door could provide.

Mu Ning was also a young head, after all.

Annoyed by Zhou Huaijin’s response, Mu Ning remained silent for a prolonged moment.

An Elder from the Cangyan Door stepped forward and spoke, “In that case, we will no longer insist. Even if we don’t require the a.s.sistance of the Phoenix Girl in the future, if you ever find yourself in need of our help, we will gladly offer our a.s.sistance.”

The Elder continued to maintain a friendly demeanor.

Mu Ning said nothing in reply. Although still irritated, he accepted this proposition.

Zhou Huaijin was an observant individual, and he had noticed the expression on Mu Ning’s face.

He briefly smiled and said, “Thank you.”

The members of the Cangyan Door departed.

Zhou Huaijin stood up and made his way towards Fengxian Palace.

The Cangyan Door individuals were irritated but chose not to create a scene. Otherwise, they would not have allowed the Piaomiao Pavilion to have free reign all this time.

Inside Fengxian Palace…

Liu Qingqing had recently left when an intruder forcefully entered Fengxian Palace.

It was Honored Princess Jing.

Since the pa.s.sing of the previous King, she had been confined to her own palace. She had not caused much trouble, leading the palace servants to lower their guard. However, upon learning of the Crown Prince’s demise, she became emotionally unstable and broke into Fengxian Palace without anyone impeding her.

“Zhou Huaijin, Gu Chaoyan, you wicked individuals! Return my Ling’s life!” Honored Princess Jing stormed into Fengxian Palace, encountering no resistance.

As Honored Princess Jing stormed into the inner chamber, Sword One swiftly unsheathed her sword. Surprisingly, Honored Princess Jing appeared unfazed by the sight of the drawn sword and continued her mad rush forward.

Sword One skillfully evaded her attack, taking a few steps back to maintain distance.

Honored Princess Jing was consumed by a desperate desire for vengeance against those responsible for her son’s death.

Upon arriving and learning of the situation, Zhou Huaijin swiftly entered the inner chamber and intercepted Honored Princess Jing, causing her to stumble and lose her balance.

“Return my son’s life!” Honored Princess Jing exclaimed as she lunged at Zhou Huaijin.
