While Lin Mu and his companions were fighting in the Spatial Plane, another set of events was happening in the Capital city.

In one of the palaces of the capital, a regal looking man was sitting in a wide open balcony.

Crafted from marble adorned with intricate carvings, the balcony exuded an air of regality and elegance. Its edges were adorned with delicate gold filigree, glinting under the sun's warm rays.

A sweeping staircase led to the balcony, flanked by sculpted stone statues depicting mythical creatures and legendary heroes of the Dao wind empire. A myriad of potted plants and vibrant floral arrangements graced the edges, adding a touch of natural beauty to the already mesmerizing surroundings.

The Balcony was merely one part though, as it further extended into a wide room that might as well be the royal court of a kingdom. It was decorated accordingly with gold and gemstones everywhere.

Such opulence was rare to be seen and even an in immortal would only a few would be able to afford it.

"Crown Prince," A Woman's voice trailed over the air, reaching the airs of the regal looking man.

"Yes, princess?" The man turned to look at the woman dressed in fiery red robes that were laced with green silk.

"You've been silent for a while. Is something on your mind?" Crown Princess Shang asked.

"Hmm… I guess you can say I do have several things." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied.

"Such as?" Crown Princess Shang asked.

"Well, the Tournament would be the first thing I supposed." Crown Prince Feng Shun said lazily.

He lightly waved his hand, causing a cup of wine to fly out toward him.

"Are you thinking about your third brother?" A man dressed in Daoist clothes asked.

"No…" The crown prince shook his head. "Do you remember our new friend, Daoist Chu?" he asked instead.

"Our new friend? Do you mean Daoist Mu Lin?" Daoist Chu replied.

"Indeed. Who other than him?" Crown Prince said with a smile.
