You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 380 - 14, the road to the end_4

"The rules set by His Majesty imply tit for tat; are there few Princes who have broken rules?"

The Twelfth Prince said softly, "I won't kill my seventh sister, just snatch her Qing Falcon. Even if it leads to the Crown Prince, it's nothing more than handing over a similar Qing Falcon, so I'll just give her another similar one."

The gaunt old man hesitated, then said, "Your Highness plans to create a fake? Could this... be feasible?"

"As long as its True Body is not seen, who dares assert if it's true or not?"

The Twelfth Prince spoke quietly, "She says the one I hand over is fake, and I'd say the one she brings out is not the Phoenix Crown Qing. Who would believe that such an incredible opportunity as the Phoenix Crown Qing could exist within Beiyuan Mountain?"

The gaunt elder thought for a moment and said, "If it's like this, then there must be no one else to testify on behalf of the Seventh Princess."

"Just eliminate the others, mere hearsay from my seventh sister is as good as idle talk."

The Twelfth Prince, his demeanor calm, said, "At that time, just set a large array and completely seal the exits of Beiyuan Mountain, leaving no one aware of what happened. Afterward, there would only be my seventh sister's side of the story. With me personally in charge, even if other Princes arrive, they wouldn't be able to break the array in a short time."

He looked toward the Ascetic and said, "An Yuan, on that day, accompany me there. With your intervention, we'll be able to snatch the Phoenix Crown Qing from my seventh sister, and the Prince Mansion will prepare a suitable excuse for you."

"Rest assured, Your Highness."

The Ascetic nodded slightly and said, "If it's unnecessary, Your Highness, please do not intervene lest it provides proof to others and further convinces outsiders that the Phoenix Crown Qing is genuine."

"I will do my utmost to absolve you of the crime of offending the princess, and will also try to compensate you as much as possible in the future," said the Twelfth Prince.

"There's no need for worry, Your Highness."

Smiling, the Ascetic said, "This time in Beiyuan Mountain, I have also made advancements. In a few years, I should be able to Harmonize. Even if I am sent to the Heavenly Prison, I will be able to Harmonize there and become a Saint, at which point they will surely release me soon."

"Oh?" The Twelfth Prince showed a hint of surprise, before smiling warmly, "Amongst the many Guest Elders in my mansion, indeed it is you, An Yuan, who will Harmonize the fastest."

"With both Master An Yuan and Your Highness taking action, this matter is as good as settled."

The gaunt elder couldn't help but smile as he said, "Congratulations, Your Highness, this is indeed a cause for celebration; at that time, having obtained the Phoenix Crown Qing and with Master An Yuan able to Harmonize and become a Saint, it truly is a double blessing."

"It's too early for congratulations now," the Twelfth Prince slightly shook his head and said, "There are still four months left, just waiting for that day…"
