Could there be a conspiracy hidden here, or had the upper echelons of the Imperial Family Secret Territory already grasped the situation of the outsiders? Were they holding off on taking action because they wanted to play a long game and catch a big fish?
At this thought, Qi Tian couldn't help but shiver. If his speculation was correct, then he, Gao Jinmei, and Xia Xiaoming would all be in danger. Especially now, since they had walked right into the trap by coming to Eastern Capital City, which definitely counted as one of the strongholds of the royal family. Should a confrontation occur here, even if Qi Tian were to use the flying sword left behind by Master Ming Ren, he might not be able to escape unscathed.
