Chapter 1528: Chapter 1521

But at this moment, the problem ended up being noticed by an outsider like Xin Lin.

"Third Sister, you’re sharper than me. Look, could this really have something to do with the Haotian Platform?"

Tu Suxuan said worriedly.

If this really was related to the Haotian Platform, then things would get troublesome.

Prince Yuan was supposed to bring Ghost Shiva into the Haotian Platform tonight to perform the Soul Gathering Technique, not to mention that in a few days, the Hao Tian Festival would also be held there.

Tu Suxuan really didn’t want any more trouble at such a critical time, especially since they had just offended an incredibly formidable King Hua.

"Eight or nine times out of ten, it’s related to the Haotian Platform, but I still need to go inside the Haotian Platform and take a look before I can be sure."

Xin Lin muttered.

She was only guessing.

Earlier, Xin Lin had never figured out why Gui Hu had left without saying goodbye.

His running away from home this time seemed very ’willful’, and up to now he’d been avoiding everyone.

He has to be in Wangjing—what brought him to Wangjing?

After seeing these mysterious events, Xin Lin finally realized that Gui Hu staying in Wangjing was probably no coincidence; he must be waiting for something.

Xin Lin knew Gui Hu’s temperament very well.

He was a cold but meticulous man; there had to be something hidden in Wangjing.

"Then tonight, I’ll go into the Haotian Platform with you all."

Tu Suxuan said, uneasy.

"I’m afraid that won’t work. Ghost Shiva only needs Second Brother to bring one person. If I go in, I’m clearly more suitable than you. Big Brother, don’t worry, I’ll bring Rong Qiu inside; it’ll protect my safety."

As soon as Xin Lin finished, a deafening belch sounded from the side.

Rong Qiu had actually gnawed an entire Spiritual Python clean, leaving only a ghastly white skeleton of the Spiritual Python.

Rong Qiu’s belly was round and bulging; it sprawled lazily in the courtyard, looking...

Tu Suxuan glanced worriedly at Xin Lin, then at Rong Qiu.

Xin Lin gritted her teeth, thinking to herself in the Dark.

"Endure! Once we return from the Haotian Platform, I absolutely have to find some methods to use Spiritual Wisdom Grass to make this idiot grow a brain!"

The matter of entering the Haotian Platform was thus decided.

Tu Suxuan also wanted very much to enter the Haotian Platform, but Ghost Shiva simply wouldn’t agree.

Ghost Shiva was an extremely difficult character to deal with. The Soul Gathering Technique she was going to perform was a secret art from Fengdong, and there were very few who had Mastered it. Other than Prince Yuan, she stubbornly refused to let a fifth person in besides herself, Zhao Tianming, and Xin Lin.

If not for Prince Yuan having threatened her earlier—saying that if Ghost Shiva didn’t agree, he’d cut ties and refuse to let her enter the Haotian Platform—Ghost Shiva wouldn’t have agreed to let Xin Lin in either.

Once night fell, Prince Yuan came to escort Xin Lin to the Haotian Platform.

Xin Lin and Tu Suxuan also told Prince Yuan about what they’d discovered during the day.

After listening, Prince Yuan found it somewhat unbelievable, but he still agreed that before the Soul Gathering Technique began, Xin Lin would be allowed to walk around inside the Haotian Platform to search for clues.

"There are some rules for entering the Haotian Platform. It’s Royal grounds, so you must bathe and change, and wear either Royal Family clothing or garments bestowed by the Royal Family to enter. You also need to bathe and burn incense; the ceremonial officers inside the Haotian Platform will arrange all that. Because the Soul Gathering Technique is very special, it has to be conducted after midnight, and we must avoid the lights of the Haotian Platform. After weighing the options, I found that only the lowest level of the Haotian Platform is suitable for Soul Gathering, so I arranged for the ceremony to be held on the bottom level of the Haotian Platform."

On the way to pick up and escort Xin Lin, Prince Yuan explained the arrangements for tonight.
