The two sides each defended their own assertions, making it difficult to discern the truth.

The question of whether the emperor was alive or dead was crucial to their plans and could not afford any miscalculations.

Thus, under such circumstances, Bai Xiaosheng had no choice but to personally go to Tiandu and, after considerable consideration, finally confirmed the truth.

“If he’s already dead, why is his death kept secret and not publicized?” Pei Xuanjing frowned slightly, somewhat perplexed.

Was there additional hidden information they were not revealing?

He turned to Yu Zhenzi and asked, “Did Bai Xiaosheng mention why the imperial court is suppressing the news?”

Yu Zhenzi replied, “Specific details haven’t been disclosed yet, but according to Bai Xiaosheng’s speculation, it’s likely related to the unresolved question of the emperor’s successor. There are differing opinions about who should ascend the throne, and it seems no consensus has been reached.”

“Ah?” Realization dawned on Pei Xuanjing. It probably was the case.

According to the traditional rules of the Great Ming, if the emperor had no son, his brother could claim the throne.

Although the emperor currently had a brother, he had died young, leaving only King Xing who Pei Xuanjing had encountered in his life simulation.

Nonetheless, the fact that King Xing ascended the throne in Pei Xuanjing’s simulation did not mean that he was the sole eligible successor to the throne.

Apart from the law of a brother succeeding, there was also the method of adoption.

In contrast to the era in which Pei Xuanjing had lived, in this world adoption made no difference between an adopted or biological son; he could fully succeed to all.

With numerous families in the Great Ming, finding a suitable child was not difficult at all.

Moreover, for many, a child ascending the throne was much better than King Xing.

“No wonder, no wonder King Xing encountered numerous assassination attempts in my simulation. There were probably many people who couldn’t accept this outcome, prompting them to take a final risk!” Pei Xuanjing silently pondered. “Perhaps there is something that can be done in this situation?”

Just as Pei Xuanjing was contemplating, two people walked in.

“Teacher!”

“Real person!”

Pang Hong and Deng Zhong entered, looking disheveled and dusty.

Pei Xuanjing halted his thoughts and asked the two, “Has the item been delivered?”

“It’s been delivered!” Pang Hong affirmatively nodded.

From the side, Deng Zhong also confirmed, “We handed it over to the Old

Celestial Master ourselves. ”

The two of them looked disheveled and dusty because they had just returned from delivering Pei Xuanjing’s letter of challenge to Dragon Tiger Mountain, over a hundred miles away.

Even though Pei Xuanjing’s intention to challenge the Old Celestial Master had already become widely known, unless he wanted to make an enemy of Dragon Tiger Mountain, he still had to deliver his letter according to tradition to show respect.

Presently, Pei Xuanjing had no intention of becoming adversaries with Dragon Tiger Mountain, a formidable force. After all, at present, the two parties had not yet clashed in interest. Or, to put it another way, due to common interests, there were still possibilities for cooperation.

“Did the Old Celestial Master say anything?”

“The Old Celestial Master said, he is waiting for your arrival!”

“I’m looking forward to the day I cross hands with the Celestial Master!” Pei Xuanjing laughed. Crossing hands with a strong person like the Old Celestial Master would indeed bring him significant benefits.

He then turned his gaze towards Pang Hong, nodding with satisfaction, “After two years of exertion, you have made such quick progress to reach the Fifth

Rank Realm. ‘

When he thought of the Pang Hong that had just broken through to the Sixth Grade Realm before he left the mountain, he didn’t expect him to have advanced a step further in just two years.

“It’s just that I happened to enter a blessed and forbidden place with the others and made some gains. It was purely by luck that I managed to break through.” Pang Hong replied modestly, without the slightest arrogance, and then sighed, “Compared to the achievements of the teacher at this age, I’m still far behind!” As a disciple, for Pang Hong, Pei Xuanjing was the beacon on his path of life.

Whenever he felt a sense of pride and complacency about any progress, thinking about his lofty and dazzling teacher promptly stifled it.

Pei Xuanjing smiled wryly but found himself unable to explain that his achievements were due to the aid of the simulator.

He changed the topic, saying, “You have worked hard recently and have made significant contributions. Naturally, you should be rewarded.”

With a grasping motion from his five fingers, a scroll on the desk behind him rose into the air, hovering into his hand. He handed it to Pang Hong, saying, “This is the Martial Studies of Shenxiao Sect, the Shenxiao Thunder Palm, along with some of my own cultivation insights.”

“Thank you, teacher!” Pang Hong’s face showed an ecstatic expression.

Pei Xuanjing then looked at Yu Zhenzi and Deng Zhong and added, “If you don’t understand anything about the cultivation, you may ask your Taoist friends for guidance.”

The meaning behind his words was clear, implying that these two could also study his cultivation insights.

Having the opportunity to view the cultivation insights of a powerful person like Pei Xuanjing was also a rare chance for Yu Zhenzi and Deng Zhong. The delight on the faces of the two was obvious. They quickly thanked him,

“Thank you, Real Person.”

Pei Xuanjing gave a mild smile, waving his hand to indicate it was nothing, and then said to everyone, “I’ll leave the following matters to you. I need to seclude for a few days.”

“Real Person, are there any issues? Why choose this time for seclusion?” Yu Zhenzi wore an urgent expression.

Just as the challenge was about to take place, did Pei Xuanjing encounter any problems in his cultivation that forced him to suddenly propose a pilgrimage to the mountain?
