810 Serendipity 3 (1/2)

Lei Chen had under the influence of the drugs, shared everything he knew to the very last detail towards Jun Wu Xie's questions, revealing everything he possibly could. Based on what she had gathered from Lei Chen's words, Jun Wu Xie was able to deduce that the original copy of the map was highly possible to be in the possession of the Yan Country's Emperor.

”The matter had just gotten a lot harder to do. If the item is in the hands of the Emperor, it would be a lot more difficult if we want to come into contact with him.” Fan Zhuo said looking at Jun Wu Xie. ”From the way things are now, we might not be able to distance ourselves from Lei Chen for the time being.”

Jun Wu Xie nodded, ”Only through Lei Chen, would we stand a chance of meeting the Emperor.”

The Yan Country's Emperor had not been feeling well in recent years and he had rarely left the Imperial Palace. Without Lei Chen as a link, the only way they would be able to come into contact with the Emperor would be to forcibly break into Imperial Palace. But they were unclear of the situation within the Imperial Palace and suddenly charging in haphazardly might only result in them being ambushed by the expert exponents by the Emperor's side.

Without having complete confidence they could pull it off, Jun Wu Xie would never choose to take that step.

”We can still choose to continue making use of Lei Chen, but Lei Chen is currently being targeted by someone and if we continue to be linked to him, the reputation of the Zephyr Academy would also be…..” Hua Yao trailed off as he looked meaningfully at Fan Zhuo.

”I believe that even if the Zephyr Academy's name is maligned now, its name will be cleared one day. Moreover, even if someone was intentionally defaming the Zephyr Academy, so what? As long as we win this year's Spirit Battle Tournament splendidly, everyone can only keep their mouths shut.” Fan Zhuo knew that Hua Yao was worried about his concerns for Fan Jin, hence, he was just replying Hua Yao with a gentle smile, appearing unconcerned.

”No need.” Jun Wu Xie interjected suddenly.

All the companions turned to look at her.

”Little Xie, did you say there's no need?” Fan Zhuo asked, his eyes filled with puzzlement.

Jun Wu Xie was looking at Lei Chen thoughtfully as she asked the companions: ”Do all of you think we would be able to get the map from the Yan Country's Emperor that easily?”
