Xuexue and Long Rui exchanged a glance; it seemed the steward had indeed met a poisoned fate.
Long Rui waved his hand toward the informant and said, "Understood, you may leave now!"
"Prince, madam, I take my leave," the informant bowed and withdrew.
Xuexue asked, "Prince, it seems the steward was silenced by the Fourth Prince. It will likely be even more difficult to find evidence that the Fourth Prince is the murderous demon."
Long Rui smiled slightly and said, "My dear, do not worry. The Fourth Prince, in his pursuit of evil cultivation, will not be able to restrain himself for long and will commit another crime. When that time comes, we won't lack evidence to catch him."
After two days of pondering, Long Rui understood this logic too. The Fourth Prince is ambitious, and with his practice of evil cultivation, he surely wants to progress further. What's his option then? He can only continue to use living people in his practice. His fox tail will eventually show itself.
