Chapter 1945 - 1949: Feili Xue’s Debt of Gratitude

"This place..."

Qin Tian looked at the map, his brow slightly furrowed.

"Have you been here?" Seeing this, Feili Xue asked curiously.

"I have. You should also know where this place is, right?" Qin Tian looked at Feili Xue and said.

"I know, it’s the private estate of the Fourth Prince." Feili Xue said seriously, "And I heard the Fourth Prince invited a mysterious expert to guard it, so no one can get close."

The location marked on the map was where Qin Tian and the Fourth Prince had secretly discussed deploying troops to the East State.

Back then, the two had cooperated, Qin Tian was willing to be a pawn to rescue Qiao Wenxuan.

At the time, Qin Tian had already sensed the extraordinary nature of the place; after he had turned back, illusions unexpectedly appeared there, which ordinary people could hardly see.

Moreover, once when Qin Tian wanted to check back, someone secretly transmitted a message to him in the sky above the courtyard, telling him to leave quickly!

There’s no doubt, that place is mysterious and hard to approach.

"How do you know the Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill is at the Fourth Prince’s place?" Qin Tian asked, "The key is, it’s not clear where exactly the pill is hidden after I break in. In such a mysterious place, are you asking me to search it piece by piece?"

"Under the bed in the bedroom of the east wing, there’s a hidden door leading to a basement; the Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill is in that basement. As far as I know, to preserve it from the ravages of time, the Fourth Prince used a Golden Box. If you can enter that secret basement, it should be easy to find. The challenge is getting in."

"Oh, you even know there’s a basement under the Fourth Prince’s bed? Teacher Fei, haha, you and the Fourth Prince wouldn’t..."

"You’re overthinking it. I got this... from other sources."

Seeing Qin Tian’s curious expression, Feili Xue fluttered her beautiful eyes and gave him an annoyed glare.

"Other sources... I always thought Teacher Fei was upright, but it turns out you have your little secrets too... hehe."

No sooner had Qin Tian finished speaking than Feili Xue looked at him speechlessly and said, "If you’re just preparing to mock me, then continue, and when you’re done, I’ll talk about the serious matter."

"Mocking finished, please talk about the serious matter." Qin Tian promptly said seriously.

Feili Xue said, "As for the Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill, remember this: I tell you the night after tomorrow, the Fourth Prince will attend a banquet at the Imperial Palace, probably returning very late, then it will be the perfect opportunity."

"Oh, so you already planned everything, just waiting for someone to take the fall. Alright, I’ll go the night after tomorrow." Qin Tian smirked.

Feili Xue seriously stared at Qin Tian: "I didn’t consider you a pawn, asking for your help only because you have profound cultivation, you’re the person I know and trust the most with the highest cultivation, and the best chance, so..."

"I was joking; don’t take it seriously. Thank you for considering me someone you trust."

"I also hope for your safe return. The night after tomorrow, if there’s no opportunity, it’s fine; just come back, and don’t take risks." Feili Xue looked at Qin Tian and said.

Qin Tian could see that she was very serious at this moment.

"So serious, is this considered caring for me?" Qin Tian blinked.

"Considered."

Feili Xue walked out the door and said, "It’s late; rest early."

...

The night after one day.

Feili Xue did not return home, however, Qin Tian took both maps and, at dusk, arrived at the secret estate of the Fourth Prince.

In this day, he had memorized the entire layout of the estate drawn on Feili Xue’s map, especially noting the location where the Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill was hidden.

Qin Tian reached the back door of the estate, at dark, he had observed the scout surrounding the back door dozens of times.

Actually, he was most worried not about these six hidden sentries, but the invisible elites concealed within the estate.

"The Fourth Prince went to the banquet at the Imperial Palace, hopefully, those elites followed him."

Qin Tian thought to himself, and then, around nine o’clock in the evening, when no one was around, he gathered his breath, and according to the breakthrough route planned earlier, darted in like lightning!

The area around the estate is empty; going too slowly would surely get noticed, and there’d be no room to fight back. Qin Tian understood clearly that to break in without being detected by those with profound cultivation was almost impossible.

When four of the six guards moved forward to patrol, Qin Tian transformed into a ray of light and soared over the courtyard wall, striking down two guards with the swiftest action possible!

If those being skilled in the Small Immortal Realm resisted, there might’ve already been an alarm sounded, had it not been for Qin Tian’s ruthless moves!

Qin Tian was startled but quickly processed the bodies, and moved directly toward the target location.

He’s betting those elites aren’t perpetually using Divine Sense to monitor the estate.

After all, constantly using Divine Sense to monitor would not only deplete True Qi but consume a huge amount of True Qi, and it’s unlikely that those experts would engage in such a tedious task.

After Qin Tian entered the estate, everything inside was calm as usual, confirming his previous guess that he had made the right bet.

Taking a deep breath, Qin Tian moved nimbly, eliminating two guards along his path, and smoothly entered the Fourth Prince’s bedroom.

Crunch~

Opening the floor beneath the bed, Qin Tian indeed found a hidden door. He hesitated for a moment before diving into the underground secret room.

This secret basement was not large, nor did it have any lighting. Qin Tian lit a torch, and when he saw countless jewels and storage bags arranged neatly, he was stunned.

"Find the item first, then help myself a little."

Qin Tian calmed himself, approached a wall, and saw the entire wall was a display cabinet filled with various sealed boxes.

As he searched one by one, although he saw several golden boxes, he did not find the Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill.

"Could it be in here?"

Finally, Qin Tian’s gaze was locked onto an alcove in the secret chamber.

He gently knocked on the wall, confirming that it was hollow inside, certainly housing a secret compartment; finding secret compartments was second nature for Qin Tian, who had investigated countless times.

Now the crucial thing was how to open this compartment?

Searching nearby, he found no mechanism to open it.

Anxious, Qin Tian finally pulled out the Red Sword; it was time to make a decisive move and forcibly open the alcove with his Divine Weapon.

The Red Sword, a peerless Divine Artifact, infused with Qin Tian’s True Qi, became exceptionally strong; it directly pierced the alcove wide open, revealing a compartment half as tall as a person.
