Chapter 415: Breaking Into The Palace
“Master, you’re a bad person! I’m going to ignore you from now on!” huffed the fifth princess angrily with a pout as she turned around to leave.
Before she took two steps, Ling Chuxi called out after her, “Wait. You came to look for me. Is something the matter?” Thinking about how the fifth princess looked like she was in a panic earlier on, Ling Chuxi felt that the matter she had come to see her for was possibly something of great importance.
“Ah! Master, Master!” howled the fifth princess, only recalling just then the important matter she had come to see Ling Chuxi about. “There was a person who broke into the palace and specified that he wanted to meet you just now. Initially, a few of the generals from the Forbidden Army found him at fault for trespassing, but they didn’t even manage to survive a single move from him and were sent sprawling onto the ground just like that. Even Baili Han was defeated with a single move,” recounted the fifth princess with lingering feelings of fear.
“What?” Ling Chuxi sat up in a shock. She had seen those few Forbidden Army generals in action before. Even the weakest one possessed Battle Qi Level 8. Baili Han was even more skilled being at the realm of Great Fulfilment and yet he was defeated with a single move. How strong was the other party’s cultivation exactly?
There was no question that it had to be an expert at the realm of True Essence!
For an ordinary person, breaking into the palace would definitely be considered a crime punishable by decapitation, but for an expert at such a realm, it would not be considered such a big deal.
“Do you know who it is?” Ling Chuxi thought about it and didn’t think that she had ever offended any expert of such a level. As for Wu Feng Hall, they would not make an appearance in such a manner. Furthermore, the fighting between their countries was always done privately. Even as the sovereign state, Ding Lin Country would not send experts to break into another country’s palace without reason like this.
“I don’t know. He just looked like some sloppy old man. He entered the palace with great spectacle. Four people were carrying his palanquin and there were people playing flutes and the qin as well as sprinkling petals,” said the fifth princess.
“It’s him!” exclaimed Ling Chuxi. She knew who it was. Didn’t it sound like that crazy old pervert who hunted her down the last time? She would never have even dreamt that he had actually looked for her to the point of coming to Nan Xia Country and arrogantly barging into the palace demanding to see her.
However, honestly speaking, just recalling the standard of that person’s cultivation, he indeed had the qualifications to be arrogant.
“Let’s go quickly!” declared Ling Chuxi. She knew that person not only possessed tyrannical cultivation but was also extremely vicious and a master in poisons. She dared not delay any further and rushed outside at great speed.
“Master, wait for me…” called out the fifth princess as she casually popped a slice of peony cake into her mouth and followed after Ling Chuxi with bulging cheeks.
“Oh, you useless foodie!” scolded Ling Chuxi angrily. To think that at this time, the fifth princess still didn’t forget to casually grab a bite to eat. However, Ling Chuxi selectively forgot that this useless foodie was actually singlehandedly raised by her herself.
Before the gates of the imperial palace, thousands of warriors fully dressed in armor surrounded the few people within. The atmosphere was cold and frigid.
Close to a hundred soldiers were howling and rolling over on the ground before them. They were howling while scratching their faces uncontrollably in a desperate manner. They scratched till they bled and yet they were still unable to stop. It was a terrible sight to behold. It was obvious that they had been poisoned by a potent poison.
An old man stood facing the imperial palace with a poker face as petals spread like a carpet beneath his feet. The two young maidens behind him were playing a qin and a flute, making melodious music that sounded like it came from the immortal realm. Facing the thousands of soldiers and cavalries before him, the old man had a calm look on his face, as if he was leisurely taking a stroll around a courtyard.
The frigid atmosphere combined with the hoarse shrieks permeating the air and the ethereal music playing gave off a peculiar vibe.
“Who are you? How dare you break into the Nan Xia Imperial Palace?” asked the emperor in a majestic and dignified tone from atop the city wall of the imperial palace. Baili Han who stood before the emperor protectively looked like he was wounded quite badly.
“Are you the emperor of Nan Xia Country? I am Ye Qianhe. Do you recognize this token?” said the old man just as countless Forbidden Army soldiers surrounded him from all directions with a fierce murderous aura. However, the old man was not the least bit flustered as he took out a token and faced the emperor.
