"You can't blame me."

"At that time, I didn't even want to compete for that so-called position of the sect leader."

"It was Lu Changge who kept pressuring me, and he even sent that guy named Hanhai to disgust me."

"Helpless, I had no choice but to officially step forward."

Tang Tian spread his hands, looking innocent.

Indeed, he seemed quite innocent. At that time, he just wanted to make money quietly. Who would want to get involved with those old schemers?

The prince waved his hand. "I didn't say it's your fault."

"At that time, although I didn't find concrete evidence, I could basically confirm that there was definitely an extraordinary relationship between Lu Changge and Zhulin Daoren."

"Zhulin Daoren had adopted many orphans throughout his life."

"Most of those orphans were ordinary, but some of them were exceptionally talented and even became top experts."

"Lu Changge is probably one of them, and definitely a very crucial one."

Tang Tian fell silent.

He actually knew about this matter.

Before Lu Changge left Qingyue Gate, they had one final conversation.

That day, Lu Changge told Tang Tian that he had lived in the Purple Bamboo Courtyard and called Zhulin Daoren "Grandpa Bamboo."

Under the Nianquan Ancient Well, there was a place where Lu Changge had lived when he was young.

Tang Tian didn't know why Lu Changge told him all this, but based on the situation at that time, he was probably just fulfilling Zhulin Daoren's last wish and reminiscing about the past.

But he didn't plan to tell Prince Yu about this.

Firstly, he really didn't want to get involved in their conflict anymore.

Secondly, he had very limited information and didn't know who was right or wrong, or whom he should help.

So, let them figure it out themselves.

However, Prince Yu suddenly asked, "After Chi Yuan suddenly went crazy that night, did you see Lu Changge?"

"He must have used something from Zhulin Daoren to completely trigger Chi Yuan's inner demon."

"And that incident is very strange. I still can't figure out why he suddenly drove Chi Yuan crazy."

Tang Tian shook his head. "I didn't see him."

"He disappeared afterwards."

Prince Yu frowned. "It's really strange."

"Based on my investigation afterwards, this guy is very meticulous and didn't leave any traces."

"And everything he did had a deeper purpose."

"But the incident with Chi Yuan is different in every aspect."

After thinking for a while, he still couldn't figure out what was different about that incident, so he asked, "Then how did you help Chi Yuan get rid of his inner demon?"

Tang Tian said, "I took him to the Purple Bamboo Courtyard."

Zhulin Daoren had left a piece of information for him, but no one had discovered it until now.

I found that piece of information and completely resolved Chi Yuan's inner demon.

Prince Yu furrowed his brows, seemingly still feeling that something was off about this matter.

Tang Tian changed the topic and asked, "So, do you think it was the group of orphans left behind by Zhulin Daoren who orchestrated the incident at the Summit of the Azure Sky?"

"Did they move Zhulin Daoren's remains to the altar in the Land of Evil?"

Prince Yu shook his head.

"We still can't make a judgment yet."

"According to reason, those people don't have enough power to do something so earth-shattering."

"But through my investigation, I found that these guys are indeed planning something."

"And this plan is definitely not small!"

Tang Tian nodded and asked, "Is the investigation reliable?"

Prince Yu smiled and said, "Very reliable."

"Because I asked them directly."

Tang Tian: ...

Prince Yu smiled and said, "Although Lu Changge disappeared, he still pointed me in a direction."

"After my meticulous investigation, I finally found one of the orphans adopted by Zhulin Daoren back then."

"And then, I had a meeting with her."

"This person... you also know."

Tang Tian raised an eyebrow. "Who?"

Prince Yu smiled and said, "The Master of the Shanjiumen, Shan Jiutang."

"Bai Nuoyi."

Tang Tian was immediately stunned.

It's her?

He suddenly remembered the first time he met Bai Nuoyi in Tianfu.

At that time, Bai Nuoyi had mentioned that there was another person behind her.

Thinking back to their true first encounter, Tang Tian finally understood.

"You went to see Bai Nuoyi in Yanyu Lane in the imperial city that day, didn't you?" Tang Tian exclaimed.

Prince Yu nodded.

"That's right."

"But you intercepted me."

"Because at that time, it was also our first meeting and we hadn't established trust yet, so it ended up like that," Tang Tian couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

That day, he just happened to run into Prince Yu, who knows he was actually having a secret meeting with Bai Nuoyi.

"Alright."

"But at that time, it was before Lu Changge disappeared, right?" Tang Tian asked.

Prince Yu smirked, "Of course I couldn't put all my eggs in one basket."

"While planning for Lu Changge, I was also looking for other clues."

"But it was indeed after Lu Changge disappeared that I established enough trust with Bai Nuoyi and learned about their plans from her."

"What are their plans?" Tang Tian furrowed his brows.

Prince Yu shook his head, "I only know a little."

"Bai Nuoyi is not the core of the plan, I only know that they will start with Huang Daosheng and then further infiltrate the upper echelons of Tianfu."

"So, that's why I chose to cooperate with Fairy Ling Luo later, in order to get ahead and obtain clues about Huang Daosheng, and then further investigate their conspiracy."

The whole event was basically drawn to a complete circle here.

The parts that Tang Tian didn't quite understand before were finally filled in with the last piece.

After listening, Tang Tian let out a long sigh.

These guys, they're really...

Although standing behind the scenes, a single thought, a single decision, can cause millions of people to die.

He really didn't like dealing with people like this.

Wouldn't it be better if everyone just simplified things, be sincere, and focus on cultivating to become stronger?

After calming his emotions for a while, Tang Tian spoke, "I understand."

"But I still don't quite understand, what does all of this have to do with you avoiding me all this time?"

"You've been avoiding me for so long, and now suddenly you come and say all this, what's the reason?"

He didn't believe that Prince Yu would do all this for no reason.

But faced with this question, Prince Yu smiled bitterly again.

"Why I've been avoiding you, don't you have any idea in your heart?"

"Several plans were either blown or ruined because of your appearance at the most critical moments."

"Most importantly, you, as a person, simply cannot see clearly, and have no way of predicting what will happen next."

"I consider myself to have a deep understanding of human nature, but compared to you, I'm like an innocent child."

"You truly are the most cunning person I've ever seen or heard of."

Tang Tian was instantly speechless.

You're the cunning one, your whole family is cunning.

I've always been the most sincere, okay?

You guys just have to overthink, do you blame me for that?

He grumbled discontentedly, "Then why did you come now?"

"Aren't you afraid that I'll scheme against you?"

Prince Yu sighed softly.

"I swear, if it weren't for no other choice, I really wouldn't want to come find you at a time like this."

"It's just..."

He looked at Tang Tian and said in a low voice, "You probably still don't know what Longmen really means, do you?"

Tang Tian's gaze froze.
