C130 Speculation and worry (1/2)

”Even if something were to happen to the Imperial Family, it wouldn't be enough to make Principal Zhou Tian act like this.”

After a long while, Qin Shaojie finally opened his mouth and spoke slowly. Even he never thought that this matter would involve the royal family.

However, he never expected that the situation would spread out so quickly. After thinking about it, since Crown Prince Qin Zhu had already been around for a long time, it would not be a day or two before she peeked at the position of emperor. This time, the emperor's illness was getting worse. The news that came from the palace might be over soon.

According to the rules, Qin Zhu inheriting the throne was already a certain thing.

And this time, for all the placings to be opened, in the words of Zhou Tian, it was Qin Zhu who asked for it. After all, the current Qin Zhu urgently needed the support of the various great clans for his position. The opening of these spots would presumably cause many great clans and Great Yan Dynasty's forces to feel even better towards him, and would also tell the world that he had absolute power. After all, even Holy Flame Academy had to follow his plans.

Using both kindness and might was a good idea.

After all, the succession of the royal family had nothing to do with the Holy Flame Academy, so Qin Zhu didn't need the Holy Flame Academy to express herself. The key thing was that the Holy Flame Academy wouldn't participate in this sort of thing, otherwise, the independence of the Holy Flame Academy would be greatly reduced.

It was just that Qin Shaojie was surprised, that a mere Qin Zhu, even if she wanted to inherit the throne in the future, so what?

As long as Holy Flame Academy had not fallen, Qin Zhu would not be able to move her hands for a long time. Even if Qin Zhu wanted to attack him, the people in the imperial court were not idiots or fools. If they wanted to use the Holy Flame Academy s, even the overturning of empires might not be able to do so.

Therefore, Qin Shaojie would not be so naive to think that everything was just as Zhou Tian said. No matter what, he was tied to Qin Mei. With the relationship between Qin Zhu and Qin Mei, as long as the current Emperor falls, the battle between the two of them would not stop. Both of them, Qin Zhu was the Son of Heaven, and Qin Mei did not have much of a chance.

But right now, Qin Shaojie couldn't care so much.

If he gave up all the spots just because of Qin Zhu, then everything would be too far-fetched.

More accurately, with Qin Zhu in her hands, my Holy Flame Academy will not choose to follow his arrangements. ”

At this point, Zhou Tian clenched his fist slightly. Soon after, a sullen look appeared in the depths of his eyes. Not to mention the Great Yan Dynasty, even the surrounding dynasties would not be weak. He did not expect that a sixteen or seventeen year old boy would actually grab onto his weakness, causing him to have no choice but to agree.

What on earth did the other party have to do with the Holy Flame Academy? That was why Zhou Tian was so afraid, to the point where he had no choice but to make such a choice that would be detrimental to the entire academy.

profound veins?

This was the only possibility that Qin Shaojie could think of right now. All these years, Holy Flame Academy had always been doing one thing: To protect the profound veins from being leaked. Could it be that the matter of the profound veins was already known by Qin Zhu? If that was the case, it would not be too excessive to use it to threaten Holy Flame Academy.

Seeing Zhou Tian nod his head, Qin Shaojie also sighed.

There was no airtight wall in the world, so it was reasonable for the profound veins's information to be leaked. After all, with Qin Zhu's personality, she must have thought of every possible way to control the Holy Flame Academy in her hands. Normal means naturally wouldn't work, but this profound veins had to be said to be the Holy Flame Academy's weak point. Once the news was leaked, the pressure Holy Flame Academy would face would be immense.

However, he had chosen to hide it, so he had to make the possibility of it being discovered and the worst case scenario. But now, it seemed that the Holy Flame Academy was not prepared for the worst, and did not plan on doing so.

”How important is the profound veins? Even if Qin Zhu knew, as long as he isn't an idiot, she would probably think of ways to take this profound veins for herself. But with the strength of the current Great Yan Dynasty, cooperating with you is the best option. rather than choosing this kind of threatening method. ”

Shaking his head, Qin Shaojie said to Zhou Tian. From Zhou Tian's words, it was not hard to tell that Qin Zhu's attitude was tough, it was just that there was no room for negotiation. This was not something that a prince who had yet to reach a high position would dare to say.

After all, offending the Holy Flame Academy was definitely a low game for Qin Zhu.

Furthermore, as long as he was not a fool, he should be clear that this secret could not be known by anyone else.

”How can I not understand this? But there was no choice. His attitude is tougher than we thought. And, you still can't attack him. He's always been protected secretly by his Earthly Yuan Stage expert. ”

As he said this, Zhou Tian's voice was filled with killing intent. It had to be said that he did have the intention to kill earlier, but unfortunately, he didn't manage to find a suitable opportunity to do so in the end. If he were to kill a mere prince, although the imperial family would have a huge reaction against the Holy Flame Academy, and even require the Holy Flame Academy to pay a certain price, but so what? Compared to the information about the profound veins, these costs were nothing to worry about.

”A dignified Holy Flame Academy is actually being controlled by someone. It would truly be a joke if word of this were to spread.”

Waving her hand, this was merely Holy Flame Academy's decision and not enough. Otherwise, not to mention a single Earth Origin Stage protecting Qin Zhu, even if there were three Earth Origin Stage protecting him, it would still be useless. The strength of the Holy Flame Academy was much higher than what everyone had imagined.

So, in the end, Holy Flame Academy still chose to endure, and even paid such a huge price to choose to endure.
