Dusk, Imperial City.

Even though night was falling over the Imperial City, many pedestrians still passed through the South City Gate, and the soldiers at the gate carefully inspected the comers and goers.

Because it was a sensitive time, and various forces were gathering in the Imperial City, the soldiers rigorously checked all who came and went.

However, Qin Tian, after disguising himself, easily passed the soldiers’ inspection and entered the long-awaited Imperial City.

At this time, the city was basically under the control of the Fourth Prince and the War God, at least on the surface.

After entering the city, Qin Tian headed straight to Feili Xue’s residence, as there was nothing more important than refining the Immortal Pill.

When night fell, Qin Tian had already infiltrated Feili Xue’s residence in the Imperial City.

Qin Tian knew this place from when he was previously in the Imperial City.

However, Qin Tian also knew that besides this place, Feili Xue also had a residence in the Imperial Palace.

A dozen soldiers at the residence couldn’t detect Qin Tian’s infiltration at all.

However, Qin Tian was worried about whether Feili Xue would return here to stay tonight? If she wouldn’t, he surely couldn’t sneak into the Imperial Palace, could he?

Qin Tian waited until around nine in the evening before finally the gates of the courtyard opened and a small group of people walked in.

Feili Xue had returned.

Qin Tian lay in wait in the innermost part as he watched Feili Xue walk into the courtyard alone.

”Master Fei, it’s been tough on you, this round of alchemy.”

”Your Highness, you’re too courteous. This is what I should do. Your Highness, please go ahead.”

”Your place is indeed peaceful. I won’t have tea; it’s getting late. I just wanted to ask, if you were to refine Blood Replenishing Pills with higher concentrations and stronger potency, are you and your master confident in succeeding?”

”This... might require some medicinal materials. If there’s a Flame Snow Lotus over a thousand years old, there might be an opportunity. However, I still need to discuss this with my master... Your Highness, you want to refine higher concentration Blood Replenishing Pills?”

”Oh, I was just asking. We’ll talk about it later. Rest early; I’ll be taking my leave.”

”This concubine will see Your Highness out.”

In the courtyard, Qin Tian overheard a conversation between someone and Feili Xue.

The voice was very familiar to Qin Tian; it was the Fourteenth Prince.

”How does the Fourteenth Prince know Feili Xue? Isn’t he supposed to be without Cultivation Immortality? Why does he want to refine elixirs?”

Qin Tian was full of doubts, and what he heard about the so-called Blood Replenishing Pill, that was a high-level elixir, usually, without being in the Great Immortal Realm, consuming a Blood Replenishing Pill would cause bleeding from all seven orifices, resulting in death!

And above the Great Immortal Realm, the Blood Replenishing Pill is a significant boost.

The Fourteenth Prince actually wants to refine Blood Replenishing Pills with even higher concentrations?

While Qin Tian was puzzled, Feili Xue closed the door and walked toward her room in the courtyard.

The maid Little Pear had prepared the bathwater for her, and Feili Xue went straight into the bathroom to bathe.

Qin Tian was only about ten meters away from the room where Feili Xue was bathing. After hesitating, he decided it would be safest to discuss matters with Feili Xue in the bathroom. Therefore, he prepared to move closer and sneak inside once Feili Xue finished bathing and dressed.

”I’m bathing, so please don’t come in, okay?”

To Qin Tian’s surprise, before he could get close to the bathroom, Feili Xue’s words came from within.

Qin Tian was stunned. Was he discovered? Impossible! With his current Great Immortal Realm peak cultivation, in the Imperial City, as long as he concealed his breath, Feili Xue shouldn’t be able to detect him!

He was stunned for a moment, stopped, and only moved closer again when there was no sound from the room.

”Do you still want to come over? Men and women should maintain a distance. Please wait until I am done bathing and dressed.”

Swoosh!

This time, Feili Xue’s voice made Qin Tian completely freeze.

Without a doubt, Feili Xue had definitely discovered him.

Initially, Qin Tian thought Feili Xue was talking to her maid, Little Pear.

But now, since Feili Xue was talking about maintaining a distance between men and women, she naturally not only knew there was someone there, but also knew it was a man.

”Damn, she’s this sharp?”

Qin Tian was taken aback. From his impression, Feili Xue’s cultivation level wasn’t very high, yet with his Great Immortal Realm cultivation enabling him to remain undetected, she could still detect him?

In his shock, Qin Tian didn’t speak, standing in place until Feili Xue finished bathing and dressing, deliberately sent the maid, Little Pear away, and wearing a white bathrobe, walked to the doorway, saying, ”I don’t know what brings you, Marquis Qin, such a long way and taking such risks to see me, but since it’s so late, please come in.”

Hiding in the shadows, Qin Tian was so astonished his hair stood on end.

Damn, did Feili Xue not only know there was someone here but knew it was him too?!

How terrifying!

Watching Feili Xue turn and walk into the bathroom, Qin Tian didn’t hesitate any longer and emerged from the shadows, entering the bathroom, and securely closing the door.

In the bathroom, the fragrance of Feili Xue’s body scent mixed with the steam filled the air, and as Qin Tian entered, he felt a brisk and refreshing sensation.

Beside the bath stood Feili Xue, her long hair tied up, a bathrobe wrapped around her, seated on a long bench. Underneath the bathrobe, a long, slender leg was partially visible, causing Qin Tian’s heart to flutter.

Even without makeup, Feili Xue was undeniably a truly beautiful woman.

”Marquis Qin, you’ve come all the way from the Demon Clan to the Imperial City to find me. Surely it wasn’t just to sneak a peek at a lady bathing? That’s not the kind of behavior one would expect from a Marquis Qin.”

Sitting on the bench, Feili Xue had a smile on her face as she pointed to a small stool beside her, ”Please, have a seat.”

Qin Tian chuckled and said, ”Master Fei, long time no see, you’re still as beautiful as ever...”

”Please, don’t address me as Master anymore, you’re a Marquis now, a noble.”

Feili Xue extended her fair hand, picked up an exquisite teacup from the small wooden table beside her, and took a sip.

”It’s so late, daring to sneak into my residence, may I ask Marquis Qin what business brings you?” she inquired.

”Since I’ve traveled so far, naturally there’s something I need your help with,” Qin Tian replied. ”But before I get to the reason I’m here, I have two questions I’d like to ask.”

”Oh? Please go ahead, Marquis Qin.”

”The first question is, I already infiltrated your residence silently, Master Fei. How did you know someone had broken in, and know it was me while you were in the bathroom? It’s unbelievable!”

Facing Qin Tian’s questions, Feili Xue smiled charmingly, saying, ”I’ve laid out my special medicine powder all over this courtyard. Once anyone breaks in, the powder is disturbed in the air, and I can easily detect it.”

As she spoke, her beautiful eyes fixed on Qin Tian, she said, ”And as for how I knew it was you... hehehe, don’t forget, I am an Alchemist, very sensitive to scents. Your scent, I recognized it.”
