Chapter 593 - 590: Sophisticated Framing Methods

Next, Gao Fei was going to attempt to break through to the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm.

Just hearing the name, one would know it was formidable!

Not everyone could advance to the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm, some people couldn't succeed in their entire lives.

It was once said that among ten million cultivators, at most one person could successfully advance to the Unity of Heaven and Man, the rest almost all failed. To put it in layman's terms, "advancing to the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm is really too difficult."

Those who successfully advanced to the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm would be referred to as "Saints."

Gao Fei was now taking steps towards becoming a Saint, just one step away. With this one step, he could become a Saint.

"Saint," Gao Fei muttered to himself, "what a pleasant-sounding title. Soon, I will become one of the Saints."

It was like a dream, unwittingly reaching this step.

Once, Gao Fei was an ordinary person, working to the bone every day to earn money.

Late, after receiving the Demon God Heritage, Gao Fei formally stepped onto the path of cultivating immortality. From then on, his life became rich and colorful. Similarly, life was filled with crises. Hovering between hope and danger, a moment of inattention could lead to the loss of his life.

After starting to cultivate immortality, Gao Fei became even more cautious and careful. When facing crises, his mind became even calmer. He firmly believed that as long as he worked tirelessly, his life would definitely be incredibly splendid.

In Gao Fei's words: "I would rather live a thrilling fifty years than a cowardly century."

Life requires planning, setting some goals to strive for, constantly challenging one's own limits, and launching one attack after another towards success. As long as there is effort, there will definitely be a reward. Of course, effort and reward are not directly proportional, often, the effort is more, and the reward less.

Gao Fei's life goal was to ascend to the Immortal Realm and share the same longevity as heaven and earth, thereby possessing endless life.

Now Gao Fei was getting closer and closer to success, and his mood became tenser and tenser. He was truly afraid, afraid that he would fail in the end.

"Enough, no more thinking," Gao Fei shook his head, "Continue to cultivate, strive to overcome the bottleneck in one fell swoop, and advance to become a Saint!" After his emotions completely settled down, Gao Fei closed his eyes, holding two pieces of Amethyst, he began to cultivate. Spiritual energy from within the Amethyst continuously flowed into Gao Fei's body, casting a thin layer of light around his body, dreamlike and enchanting.

...

At some point, rumors about Prince Consort Bai Daqing began to circulate on the outside.

The content of the rumors was: Gao Fei once saved the life of Prince Consort Bai Daqing. Instead of repaying the favor, Bai Daqing intensified his torment towards Gao Fei, a clear case of ingratitude and a complete loss of conscience! How could such a person be worthy of being a prince consort?

The rumor spread widely, and eventually, even Prince Consort Bai Daqing heard about it.

"Bang!"

Sounds of hard objects smashing to the floor emanated from the hall along with faint cursing.

Those who were aware of the situation knew that Prince Consort Bai Daqing was angry, very angry, breaking things, and swearing vulgarities, trashing the neat and bright hall into a mess.

"Bastard! Scoundrel! Damn it!!!"

"Who is it! Who is spreading these rumors, sullying my reputation!!!"

"Don't let me find out who's behind this, or I will tear you to pieces!!!"

"It's infuriating! It truly infuriates me!!!"

"Bang!"

"Crash!"

Bai Daqing smashed his favorite vase onto the floor where it shattered into pieces, with fragments scattering all over.

The guard stood at the doorway with his head lowered, not even daring to breathe too loudly. He had been following Bai Daqing for several years but had never seen him this enraged before.

"Father!"

"Father-in-law!"

At this moment, Bai Mudan and Dongfang Jian stepped into the hall. After receiving a report from a servant that Bai Daqing was furiously smashing things, Bai Mudan and Dongfang Jian hurried over. The scene that met their eyes was in complete disarray, with fragments scattered all over the floor, leaving no place to even set foot.

"Father, what has happened to you?" Bai Mudan walked over and grabbed the enraged Bai Daqing, asking anxiously, "What happened? Why are you so angry?"

"Yes, Father-in-law, what has happened to you?" Dongfang Jian also showed a face full of concern.

Bai Daqing closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened them again, his emotions had stabilized. He turned his head to look at his daughter and son-in-law, "Recently, a rumor has emerged outside. You have heard of it, haven't you?"

"A rumor?" Bai Mudan was startled, "What rumor?"

Dongfang Jian showed a puzzled expression, "I've been busy handling military affairs these days and have seldom gone out, so I haven't heard any rumors..." Dongfang Jian was clearly lying through his teeth, not only did he know about the rumor, he also knew who had spread it... The rumor was spread by the massive Dongfang Jian.

"You haven't heard the rumor?" Bai Daqing frowned.

"Father, what exactly is the rumor?" Bai Mudan asked curiously, "What rumor could make you so angry?"

"...The rumor is about me..." Bai Daqing briefly repeated the content of the rumor, "The rumor has spread quickly, I estimate that everyone in the entire city knows about it by now."

"Who spread the rumor?" Bai Mudan became anxious upon hearing this, "Who is it?"

Bai Daqing shook his head, "We don't know yet, but I've already sent people to investigate." No sooner had he finished speaking than a soldier came running in, panting and dripping with sweat.

"Your Highness, after an investigation, I have captured two rumor-mongers," the soldier reported with a bow.

"Where are they?" Bai Daqing asked urgently.

"Just outside..."

"Bring them in at once!"

"Yes!"

...

Bai Daqing stared at the two men kneeling on the ground, his tone cold and merciless, "Was it you spreading the rumor?"

"Not us, we also heard it from somewhere else," the two men, terrified and shaking, their faces pale, it was clear that they were very scared. How could they not be? The person standing in front of them was a prince, who could decide their fate with a single word.

"Where did you hear it from?" Bai Daqing asked sternly.

"We heard it from the border..."

"The border? Which border?"

"The one to the east..."

"The east?" Bai Daqing's brows furrowed. If he wasn't mistaken, the tens of thousands of troops led by Gao Fei were stationed on the eastern frontier. Could it be... that the rumor was related to Gao Fei? Once this thought surfaced, it could not be dismissed.

"It's Gao Fei!" Bai Mudan also came to this realization, fuming as she said, "It must be him! Father has distanced himself from him, and now he bears a grudge, fabricating rumors to tarnish Father's reputation! Yes, it's him! He is too despicable, too shameless, too cunning!"

Dongfang Jian wished he could rush up and embrace Bai Mudan with two kisses, too damn impressive! Worthy of being my wife!

"Father! Order his arrest at once! Punish him severely!" Bai Mudan said hatefully.

Although Bai Daqing was angry, he had not lost his reason. He shook his head, "The matter has not yet been thoroughly investigated, let's not jump to conclusions."

"Isn't it clear enough?" Bai Mudan stomped her foot and shouted, "The rumor came from the border, and Gao Fei even has the motive to spread it. I'm certain of it! The rumor must have been spread by Gao Fei! I really didn't expect that Gao Fei could be so despicable and shameless!"
