Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

After Night Owl finished speaking, Xiao Ce nodded.

Seeing that Xiao Ce seemed lost in thought and didn't speak, Night Cat said to him, "Your Highness, if you don't want to go, I can go alone. I've already taken advantage of Okamoto Sayo's identity, so there won't be any problems."

Xiao Ce shook his head and said, "No need. According to my plan, I should indeed die!"

Hearing Xiao Ce's words, Night Cat looked at him with surprise and confusion.

"Your Highness, what do you mean by this? Death? That's unnecessary."

Seeing this, Da Lei joked from the side, "Of course it's not death in the normal sense... but rather, Your Highness needs to fake your death!"

Night Owl still looked puzzled.

Xiao Ce said to Night Cat, "Actually, don't they want me dead? Don't they want to control everything here? Then I'll make them think that they've already taken over everything here."

“If I were to resist directly, the people here would certainly be ravaged by war! I believe they want to control everything here, not destroy them.”

"They will definitely offer help when the time comes, so if my disappearance can bring peace here, then it will all be worth it. And this is a good time for me to step away."

"Actually, the Xiao Kingdom was already on the verge of collapse because of those Japanese. It's a good opportunity to use their help to repair it."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Night Cat looked on in astonishment and said, "Your Highness, aren't you just handing this place over to them for nothing?"

"Besides, those members of the Illuminati aren't so easily fooled!"

After listening to Night Cat's words, Xiao Ce said, "I already know that! I've already planned it all out..."

Hearing this, Night Cat didn't ask any more questions and directly said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, if your plan is ready, then it must have been meticulously designed. So, what brings you here...?"

Xiao Ce said to Night Cat, "I just want to go with you and infiltrate the Illuminati..."

Looking at Xiao Ce, Night Cat said, "Your Highness, you can't go on like this. Even the Blood Ghost Pavilion is filled with your portrait, let alone the Illuminati. You're already the number one figure in their hearts..."

"So, we knew who you were the moment you showed your face..."

At this moment, the mad Taoist priest, who had been quietly soaking in the bath, said, "I have a way... I can help him solve it."

Xiao Ce had the Mad Taoist test it out; the Mad Taoist's disguise was so perfect that it was undetectable even when viewed up close.

Moreover, the cosmetics he uses won't come off for days unless he uses his special solution.

This is absolutely amazing. It's clearly makeup, but after it's done, you can't tell that any makeup techniques were used.

Da Lei said he had heard of this technique before, and this was the real disguise technique.

Xiao Ce originally wanted Da Lei to learn from him, because Xiao Ce was not sure if the Mad Taoist could stay sober at all times.

However, to everyone's dismay, even with Da Lei watching him, he still couldn't learn it.

That makes sense, if it were that simple, then this art of disguise would be everywhere.

Before this, Xiao Ce had conducted many tests.

Whenever that mad Taoist priest talked about disguise, he would personally demonstrate it.

The success rate is currently 100%.

This is what made Xiao Ce and Da Lei want to go there.

Xiao Ce was initially very angry for Ye Mao, after all, the scars on his body were shocking to look at, and one could imagine how much pain he must have been in when he was suffering.

However, after hearing Night Cat's understated words, Xiao Ce felt that it might not be as serious as he had imagined.

That's just how people are.

Xiao Ce glanced at the wounds on Night Cat's body, trying to keep himself angry.

"Night Owl, before that, I have something else to do."

Night Cat seemed to understand Xiao Ce well, and then said to him, "Your Highness, there's no need for revenge. I've already let it go... and actually, I'm grateful for that experience!"

After hearing what Ye Mao said, Xiao Ce looked on incredulously: "You mean you should be grateful for that experience? Suffering is not something to be grateful for."

Night Cat shook her head and said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, it's not that... it made me understand myself more deeply. After all, we've gone through so much training, but we've never actually experienced those truly desperate situations. But I did! If it weren't for them, I'm afraid I would never have encountered such a situation in my life."

After hearing Night Cat's words, Xiao Ce looked at Night Cat with a surprised expression: "Night Cat, isn't this just being a scoundrel?"

Night Owl chuckled and nodded, saying, "Haha, Your Highness, what you say is actually quite true."

After listening to Night Cat's words, Xiao Ce shook his head with a smile: "Alright, are you sure you don't want revenge?"

Night Owl nodded and said to Xiao Ce, "That's right, are you sure you don't want revenge..."

Da Lei then chimed in, "Your Highness, I actually understand the psychology of night owls too."

Upon hearing his words, Xiao Ce's face twitched involuntarily, and he then said, "I've figured it out now, you're all just spineless bastards..."

"You may not want revenge, but I want to go. After all, how can anyone who harms my people expect a good ending?"

Da Lei smiled at Xiao Ce and said, "Your Highness, actually, there's another reason why we don't want you to take revenge..."

Seeing this, Xiao Ce looked at Da Lei and Ye Mao with a puzzled expression.

Night Owl and Da Lei exchanged a smile.

Clearly, they were on the same page. Night Cat nodded, "Your Highness, didn't you say, 'If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze'? Although that place is a base, I don't think it's the Blood Nether Pavilion's main base. Even if you go there and raze that island to the ground, it won't make a difference!"

"Their masters are the Illuminati. If we deal with them from the Illuminati's side, is it as simple as crushing an ant?"

Although that's what they said, Xiao Ce was also very clear about it.

They didn't want Xiao Ce to take any risks. If he really went to fight them, it would be like stirring up trouble.

However, Xiao Ce also felt that what they said made sense: "You're right, if you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze..."

"Then you guys get ready, we'll get ready, and then we'll prepare to leave."

...

The next morning, Xiao Ce had someone send Gulimiza away first.

Although Gulimiza was reluctant to leave, she knew that she had more important things to do.

Xiao Ce then summoned Xiao Yang, Xiao Zhan, and Murata Hiroshi, and they talked behind closed doors for a whole day.

When Xiao Ce came out again, he looked at them and said, "I'm leaving this place to you!"

Several people nodded.

Xiao Ce looked at Murata Hiroshi, who said to him, "Your Highness, since you trust me, I will never betray your trust. You are taking a gamble, and I will play this gamble with you!"

"This is much more exciting than following the Illuminati! Besides, I know you're no ordinary person... Even if I lose the bet, I accept it."

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Alright! Then I'll leave this to you!"
