The involvement of diviners inspired confidence in the members of the Imperial Court, thus making them feel a bit more relieved.

But among the members, there was still one person that seemed to be skeptical of it all.

"That's not all is it?" A rather youthful looking man questioned.

He wore green brocade robes and had a folded hat on his head. Six dots were painted on his forehead with cinnabar while long tassel earrings hung from his ears. The earrings seemed to have small beast fangs hanging from them too with a sinister feeling surrounding them.

The youthful looking man's eyes were silver as if belonging to a wolf but the expression on his face was that of a sly fox.

"Grand Eunuch Tao… What are your doubts?" Emperor Feng asked.

The other members also became a bit tense seeing that this particular man had spoken. From their demeanor it was clear that he had their respect… or perhaps fear too. Regardless of whatever it might be, the man was not simple for sure.

"If the diviners were able to trace Yao Changying's path, why haven't they found where she is yet?" Grand Eunuch Tao questioned. "As far as I know, the divining arts of the Immortal court should be able to find those below the Transcendent Immortal realm with ease." He added.

"This…" it was something that ended up stumping the others too.

They then realized that, even if they had the traces of Yao Changying, that did not mean they also had her. It was the same as catching a bit of smoke, while the arsonist ran away.

"Do we have her location?" Grand Eunuch Tao questioned on behalf of others. "Or rather… Can we even find her location through divination?" he added.
