As for Chen Yuan, Jingtai didn't even consider the possibility—it was beyond his imagination. His cultivation was far too weak, merely at the Grandmaster level, insignificant in such affairs, completely overlooked by Jingtai.
He felt Chen Yuan simply lacked the capability to do so.
"Your Majesty, the starlight has moved towards the east. Should I personally investigate it?" Cao Zhengxian immediately asked in a low voice.
After a moment of contemplation, Jingtai narrowed his eyes and gradually suppressed the fury in his heart:
"No need, the starlight has vanished, and retrieving it would be pointless."
Of course, Jingtai believed that the one who intercepted the starlight and disrupted his plans was a True Monarch level power; sending Cao Zhengxian could be a death sentence.
Furthermore, the incident could not be spread; otherwise... it would draw attention to him.
All he could do was swallow the bitterness in silence.
