Chapter 554

Yan Ao brought Imperial Noble Consort Yu and the Ninth Prince to his room that very same day. Keeping the mother and son by his side was the safest course of action. Although Yan Ao had a Divine Sense coordinate for the Eastern Alliance and could take Imperial Noble Consort Yu back there immediately, now that they were already aboard the exploration ship, safety dictated that they make the trip to the Western Continent as well. Should the remaining fragments of the Anchor Point genuinely be in the Western Continent, he had no desire to run back and forth and end up empty-handed on both fronts. The most prudent approach right now was to hedge his bets: first make the trip to the Western Continent with the exploration ship, and only after confirming there was nothing to be gained should he return to the Eastern Continent to infiltrate the Dragon Emperor's Royal Palace and the ancestral lands of the Yu Clan.
