WTYTIAAN Chapter 49

Yan Yunqing was very candid, “I can tell you my purpose first, and you can consider whether we should cooperate.”

Yan Yunqing simply recounted everything he had experienced in Sunset Village to Cornelia, including the fact that Karena and Henry had gone to their deaths again as undead to protect the village.

“I’ve already killed Dean, and now there’s only Fei Wu left, but he’s not easy to approach. When I just came in, I was almost discovered by a level 58 swordsman, so I need companions who can help me from the inside out.”

Cornelia always paid attention to Yan Yunqing’s voice. She could hear that Yan Yunqing’s words were all true. The tragedy of Sunset Village, and Dean and Fei Wu’s aloof cruelty, all aroused boundless anger in Cornelia’s heart. She tried hard to suppress the spread of this emotion, and calmly weighed the pros and cons.

Yan Yunqing observed Cornelia’s expression, and could clearly see that after listening to the story of Sunset Village, Cornelia’s whole temperament had changed.

It became sharper.

Cornelia suddenly raised her eyes, “These things have nothing to do with you, why do you want to get involved?”

Yan Yunqing paused. Because this is the main storyline, and there are rich experiences and props to be gained…

Forget it, this reason is not convincing enough. After he finished the [Sunset – Lingering Curse Shadow]Copy, the Sunset Village plot came to an end. The old village chief’s task [Check on Uncle Ryan’s situation], after he knew that Uncle Ryan had been imprisoned in the dungeon, he could go back to turn in the task.

After all, the old village chief didn’t ask him to definitely save people after knowing that Ryan had been caught.

He also didn’t need to kill Dean at all. Even if he killed Dean, he could escape under a different identity. Even if Fei Wu knew that he killed Dean, so what? He had already left here. In this world without cameras and surveillance systems, how easy is it to find a Yan Yunqing with the ability to almost perform plastic surgery?

Yan Yunqing had countless opportunities to end this task and get away, but he still resolutely broke into the prince’s mansion alone, seeking help from Cornelia, whom he had only met once.

Yan Yunqing wanted to kill Fei Wu, even if killing him would not benefit Yan Yunqing in the slightest… So, what is the reason?

“Well… shouldn’t I say a very cool line at this time?”

Yan Yunqing suddenly said, “Like ‘Before dawn comes, someone must slightly illuminate the night’?”

Slightly interrupted by the accumulated emotions, Cornelia was speechless: …

But the sincerity in this sentence was not lacking at all. Just looking at the hateful expression on the little black cat’s face, Cornelia didn’t want to admit how serious she felt Yan Yunqing was when he said this.

Sensing Cornelia’s unhappy eyes, Yan Yunqing immediately became serious, “Okay, just kidding.”

“I just feel that these things always have to be done by someone, why can’t it be me?” Yan Yunqing said, “Since I have already seen it, I can’t completely ignore it.”

“Since the victims cannot wait for justice to be executed, then I can become the person who executes justice, no matter what means I use.”

“…Okay, I accept your statement.”

After a long silence, Cornelia nodded lightly. Her emerald green eyes contained countless emotions, like a touched lake, rippling in circles.

“I won’t tell you my secrets, and you are not allowed to explore my secrets without permission—” Cornelia paused and let go, “But I can help you achieve your goal. You want to kill Fei Wu, right?”

Yan Yunqing was stunned, “Yes, have you thought of a way?”

Cornelia shook her head, “I’ll be very frank with you, it’s impossible for you to kill Fei Wu like you killed Dean. With your current strength, you can’t do it at all.”

“Since the assassination at the Auction House last time, Fei Wu has been followed by two personal guards. They were hired for him by the Augreir Family at a high price. One is a level 76 advanced mage, and the other is a level 82 great swordsman. With your current strength, you will be solved before you can even get close to Fei Wu.”

Yan Yunqing frowned, and secretly called out “bad” in his heart. He had previously thanked ‘Blood Mist’ for helping him twice in the invisible, but now the karma has come back, and he is suffering the consequences of what ‘Blood Mist’ did.

“So you said you can help me, is it because you have thought of a way to bypass those two guards and meet Fei Wu alone?”

“Yes.” Cornelia said, “In a while, it will be the first birthday of the twenty-third prince in the royal family… King Bato loves this newborn youngest son very much, and it just so happens that his birth mother is also one of King Bato’s favorite women at the moment.”

“Although that woman’s background is not as good as the current Queen’s Augreir, she is also a very powerful family in Bato Vita, so the twenty-third prince’s first birthday banquet will be held in a grand manner, inviting countless guests to the palace to congratulate the twenty-third prince.”

“In order to show the harmony of the royal family, several princes and princesses will attend, even… well, even the tenth prince and eleventh princess who are studying at Sigreat Academy will rush back. As the second son of the current queen, Fei Wu will definitely go to this banquet.”

“Except for the invited personnel, no one else is allowed to enter the palace. Those two guards were hired by the Augreir Family for Fei Wu, so Fei Wu will not bring those two guards.”

“Although there are also guards in the palace, it is absolutely impossible to protect Fei Wu as tightly as in the prince’s mansion. More guards will guard King Bato, the Queen, the twenty-third prince who is the party concerned, and his birth mother. You can take this opportunity to solve Fei Wu.”

Yan Yunqing pondered along Cornelia’s train of thought, and felt that this method was indeed feasible, but in this way, he would inevitably expose one of his identities in front of everyone.

But this is not a big problem. Yan Yunqing had already thought about it. The ‘joker’ identity is used openly to physically change people’s hearts. He can also build momentum for this identity in the future. If he wants to do bad things in the future, having an open identity to attract attention will also make it easier for him to act.

Just…

“If I remember correctly, old King Bato should be quite old now, right? He can still have a son?”

You know, Fei Wu is thirty-four years old this year, and he is only the fifth prince. There are four older brothers and sisters above him. The oldest is estimated to be in his forties or nearly fifty. Calculating this way, old King Bato is at least sixty-something years old, almost seventy!

Although it is said that the lifespan of high-level mages and swordsmen in this world will increase accordingly, I have never heard that King Bato is a high-level swordsman or mage?

Cornelia sneered. Speaking of this topic, she finally tore off her sweet mask, “With a sperm brain that is exactly the same as Fei Wu, how do you think that old thing came up with twenty-three children while following the rules of monogamy? This doesn’t even include those who were killed by his queen as soon as they were born.”

Yan Yunqing: …

Speaking of this topic, Cornelia seems very excited. Her secret must be related to this, right?

Yan Yunqing’s thoughts flowed. Since he had already tacitly accepted Cornelia’s help, he had to follow the conditions set by Cornelia and not explore her secrets.

He has to restrain himself and not subconsciously speculate about Cornelia’s secret.

“Men, none of them are good things!” Cornelia said angrily.

Yan Yunqing: “…cough, you’re being a little… indiscriminate, huh?”

Cornelia rubbed the little black cat’s head casually, “You don’t count, you’re a kitty.”

Yan Yunqing was silent.

He was smart enough not to continue to correct her, but changed the subject, “There should be quite a few princes and princesses still alive now, right? Are they all going to attend the twenty-third prince’s birthday banquet?”

“Not really. Although King Bato has given birth to many children, not many of them have talent. Most of them are quickly neglected after their birth mother loses favor. The banquets held in the palace rarely invite these mediocre princesses and princes.”

“The main participants will be…” Cornelia thought for a while, “The second prince Filton, the fifth prince Fei Wu, and the sixth prince Fei Qi, who were born to the current queen.”

“Among the princesses, the eldest, who is married to Duke Dalton, the third princess, and the tenth prince William and eleventh princess Alice, who have excellent talents and were admitted to Sigreat Academy at a young age.”

“The other princesses and princes should not attend this banquet… Even if they do, they will probably hide in the corner, so don’t pay too much attention to them.”

Yan Yunqing quickly collected the information Cornelia revealed, and decided to go back and investigate the relevant personnel to see if there were any other breakthroughs.

“I will become Fei Wu’s female companion at that time and attend this banquet together.” Cornelia said, “You can enter the palace with me as a cat. Of course, if you have other ways to get in, I won’t force it.”

Cornelia never revealed how she, a maid on the surface, and possibly the prince’s lover in private, could become the prince’s female companion and attend such an important banquet.

The difficulties and bitterness involved cannot be explained in a few words.

Yan Yunqing hesitated: “Actually, you can just tell me this information. I can think of a way to get in myself. I don’t need you…” to sacrifice.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Cornelia.

“I’m not going to that banquet to help you achieve your goals.” Cornelia raised her eyebrows, “Being able to provide you with so much information is already my help to you. As for bringing you in, it’s just a small favor, do you think I would wrong myself for you?”

Yan Yunqing: …If he said that he really thought so, would it seem very conceited?

“I also have things I want to do, so don’t look at me with that look.” Cornelia said coldly, “But since I have provided you with help, should you also provide me with some help?”

Cornelia has completely torn off her previous mask. She is completely different from the Cornelia he once knew. Perhaps this is her most real personality.

Yan Yunqing: “…Of course, tell me.”

“Since you are going to kill Fei Wu anyway, I believe the commotion you make will be very big. I need you to make an even bigger commotion and attract everyone’s attention to you.”

Cornelia said in a deep voice: “At least fifteen minutes.”

Attracting the attention of everyone in the banquet hall for fifteen minutes and killing Fei Wu is indeed a very difficult challenge, but there is absolutely no need to do both at the same time.

“Okay, fifteen minutes.” Yan Yunqing’s little cat head nodded, and the smart hair on the tips of his ears trembled, “I will try my best to buy you more time. Just do what you want to do. I will give you a hint when the time comes.”

“No need.” Cornelia refused, “You don’t need to do extra things. Just protect yourself after killing Fei Wu. At that time, all the guards and the army’s attention will definitely be on you. I will find opportunities myself. After entering the banquet hall, we should not have any communication.”

“I won’t be able to provide you with more help at that time, and you don’t need to help me either, that’s it.”

Be a stranger with no intersection. Once one party has an accident, it will not involve the other party. This is the best result.

It’s just too cold.

Yan Yunqing understood Cornelia’s meaning, “I understand.”
