Infiltrating the court was not Qin Yu's original intention. Her purpose in entering the imperial capital was to lie low and, while doing so, understand the details of the cooperation between Blood River and Yue Taichu, further assessing Yue Taichu's abilities and objectives.
She wasn't rushed. She had given herself three months, time she could use to wait or to react — react to the imminent battle between Yue Taichu and Lin Heng, and of course, the eventual involvement of the Blood River Sect Leader, the Queen Mother, Queen Luo Se, and other figures.
This was a game.
A game that determined the basic direction of the world's power structure. It would have been best for Qin Yu to strengthen her power to the Celestial Sect Level before making a move, but the game had come earlier than she had anticipated, forcing her to react on the fly.
"However, whether Lin Heng is dead or not, this game must play out."
Thus, Qin Yu had come.
