Chapter 546: Chapter 350: Breaking Down the Door

"....."

The man dressed in the purple eunuch uniform paused slightly, somewhat puzzled by why the Third Young Master of the Prime Minister’s Mansion would suddenly ask this question.

Seeing the expression on the other’s face, Xu Yuan glanced at Yun Xiu, who had risen to her feet.

She seemed to have something to say, as if she wanted to remind the eunuch before her, but ultimately, she closed her mouth.

Witnessing this scene, Xu Yuan felt that the other party must not have transmitted any secret messages.

Telling your superior how you messed things up is highly damaging to your image in their eyes, so it’s better to let your superior experience it for themselves.

Only then, in an attempt to cover up his own incompetence, might he possibly extricate her as well.

The corridor was silent for a moment, except for the lingering scent of incense.

The response from the eunuch in purple came quickly:

"To Third Young Master, my surname is Mi, and my given name is Tian."

Xu Yuan looked at him meaningfully and nodded:

"Mi Tian... A good name."

Upon hearing this, the eunuch in purple chuckled softly:

"Third Young Master, why are you suddenly curious about my name?"

"Can’t I ask?"

Xu Yuan shook his head and walked towards another wall, the white garment underneath his robe fluttering with the breeze, his voice soft:

"Actually, I wasn’t very inclined to get involved in the secret plans between your master and Qingyan. Initially, when Qingyan pulled me in, I refused, after all, we all know this is an internal matter of the royal family, and it might be somewhat inconvenient for me as the Third Young Master of the Prime Minister’s Mansion."

"..."

Watching the disheveled man walk towards the direction he chose, the eunuch in purple suddenly felt a bit troubled.

The order from his godfather was to prevent anyone from entering the secret room, yet it was specifically aimed at Xu Changtian.

Considering the opponent’s cultivation level, he had thought it would be an extremely easy task, but how could a mere Soul Condensation practitioner see through the Illusionary Realm he set up with Dao Charm?

As the other man approached the door, the eunuch in purple’s voice grew deeper:

"So it seems, Third Young Master, you’ve decided not to go?"

Stopping in his tracks, Xu Yuan stood before the door, turned halfway around, and smiled:

"Go? Of course, I’ll go. How could I possibly not go after coming all this way?"

The eunuch in purple smiled faintly, his voice respectful:

"Then please follow me, Young Master."

At that, Xu Yuan chuckled, lifting a finger and pointing it at the air before him:

"You all are really masters of playing dumb. I’m already at the door, is there still a need to pretend?"

The expression of the eunuch in purple remained unchanged, his voluminous eunuch robe gathered slightly, as he bowed politely:

"Third Young Master, I don’t understand what you’re saying."

"No matter if you understand."

Xu Yuan disregarded him, placed his hand on the door before him, and pushed slightly.

"Crack!"

A faint cracking sound echoed in the silent corridor.

The wall before him remained just a wall, but within his spiritual sight, the door had already been pushed open.

Xu Yuan chuckled and said:

"Since you don’t understand, I’ll just go in myself."

With that, he stepped towards the wall before him.

But at that moment, the eunuch in purple suddenly appeared at his side, reaching out to stop him, with utmost respect:

"Third Young Master, that is a wall ahead of you."

"....."

Looking at the purple sleeve embroidered with intricate Strange Beasts, Xu Yuan sighed inwardly, glanced sideways, his gaze now icy:

"What are you doing?"

The eunuch in purple looked down, his voice even more respectful:

"It seems you’ve taken the wrong path, Third Young Master. Please be careful, so as not to hurt your precious self."

"Hehehe...."

Xu Yuan chuckled twice, then looked at the eunuch beside him and grinned:

"Am I to take it that you are set on not letting me in?"

The eunuch in purple bowed even lower, whispering:

"Should I offend the Third Young Master, I will personally apologize to the Crown Prince afterward and provide Third Young Master with a satisfactory answer."

"Apologize?"

Xu Yuan glanced at his palm and a glint of crimson appeared on his chest:

"No need. If the Crown Prince can’t manage his dogs, then I shall do it for him."

"......"

At his words, a sigh flickered in the lowered gaze of the eunuch in purple.

It seemed the Third Young Master was prepared to take action.

But since the other man was of high status, he couldn’t harm him, thus letting him be beaten...

Before he could complete the thought, a palm had already hit his face at a speed almost invisible to the naked eye.

Mi Tian’s eyes showed a moment of shock and confusion.

How could Xu Changtian, who was only at the Soul Condensation Realm, possibly...

While he was still bewildered, the overwhelming strength in that palm hit, causing his world to spin.

Then,

"Boom!!!"

Wood splinters scattered,

The eunuch in purple spun in mid-air, and his head hit the specially-made wooden floor heavily.

With his body kneeling and his head deeply embedded in the stone flooring, Xu Yuan towered over the Great Grandmaster eunuch, grabbing his head as if clutching a small chicken, his voice slow and soft:

"Do you know? I don’t actually dislike those who pull off tricks behind the scenes. On the contrary, I might even admire them, after all, if they can fool me, they’ve got their own skills.

"As for those who fail at their tricks and still prattle on by the side...

"My patience is very limited, and you’ve already tested it."

As his voice fell,

"Click... Click... Creak...."

The pure strength of his fingertips made the Great Grandmaster’s rigid skull produce a grinding sound that was difficult to bear.

With the threat of death looming, Mi Tian could no longer maintain his previous demeanor, his Cultivation Technique fully activated, he threw a palm towards Xu Yuan’s chest.

His palm wrapped in a green energy, teeming with a strong corrosive aura.
