Chapter 209: Chapter 203: Apprehending the True Culprit

[Alright, now activating the host’s ability for deduction - "Truth Revealed" - ]

A light screen appeared before Shen Tang’s eyes.

The scene began with the assassination attempt on them yesterday.

Subsequently, events were reversed deduced.

——The group of assassins received a secret order to ambush them.

——The secret order came from the Imperial Palace.

The scene continued to move forward.

——In a hidden grove outside the Imperial Palace, Sivall was waiting anxiously alone.

Moments later, a mysterious figure in a gray robe appeared on the screen, secretly handing something to Sivall with the loose sleeves covering their hand.

Shen Tang couldn’t see clearly, but it seemed to be... a box?

The scene shifted again to yesterday afternoon.

After the failed assassination, Sivall took out that day’s box and pulled out a puppet from inside.

The puppet looked exactly like Jia Lan!

Immediately, Sivall’s face turned sinister, a cruel smile appearing at the corner of his lips as he stabbed a silver needle viciously into the puppet’s head!

The scene swiftly returned to Jia Lan, and at the moment the puppet was stabbed by the silver needle, he clutched his head and screamed in pain, losing control in a frenzy.

After watching the event deduction, Shen Tang fell into deep thought, not expecting this assassination to be related to the Sea Country’s concubine. Where did he even get such sinister witchcraft puppets?

She couldn’t directly tell Jia Lan the facts and only shared her suspicions.

Jia Lan also suspected in his heart that it was Sivall. If there was anyone in the harem who didn’t want him back, it would be Sivall and Jia Lin, the father and son duo.

He just didn’t expect the two to boldly act so blatantly, completely disregarding the King’s law!

Shen Tang said, "No matter how much we speculate, we don’t have any evidence for now. Let’s not alert the enemy; we can have someone investigate slowly in secret."

"Ha, no need to go to such trouble. Dare to plot against me and you, I’ll go seize them right now!"

Jia Lan couldn’t endure it any longer. He immediately took Shen Tang with him, heading to Sivall’s residence.

The attendants at the door, seeing the prince storming over with fury, all looked shocked, unable to understand.

Who didn’t know in this world that Prince Jia Lan and the concubine got along poorly? Since childhood, he never came to pay respects; it had been eight hundred years without him visiting the concubine’s palace actively.

"I-I don’t know what urgent matter brings Your Highness here?" the guard greeted with trepidation.

Jia Lan said angrily, "Get Sivall out here for me!"

"Well... apologies, Your Highness, the concubine and Prince Jia Lin just left not long ago and have yet to return. If Your Highness has commands, you can tell us, and we’ll surely convey them to the concubine upon their return."

Shen Tang had checked the system map and knew Sivall was indeed not in the palace. These guards did not have the guts to lie to Jia Lan.

Jia Lan sneered coldly and strode into the palace.

The guards were startled and blocked his way,

"Your Highness! This! This is not allowed! This is the concubine’s palace. Without her order, even as a prince, you cannot enter and exit as you please — ah!"

Jia Lan blasted the blocker to the ground with a single strike.

"All of you, get lost. Let’s see who dares block me today!" Jia Lan’s voice was cold as ice, and the Seventh Rank pressure toppled a large group of Beastmen.

The remaining guards were extremely frightened, retreating several steps, no one dared to approach and block the way.

It was Shen Tang’s first time seeing such a murderous Jia Lan; she was slightly stunned, knowing this time he was truly enraged.

She snapped back to her senses and quickly followed him.
