The targets of the emperor were obviously important characters of the four clans; the ones that would hinder the royal clan’s benefits . Normal people wouldn’t get into his sight .
This showed just how strong the Central Chief Attendant was, to be able to kill these men .
Thus, there was no way of getting the Imperial Seal from this man despite the knowledge .
Feiyun stood outside the palace among the steps to look at the imperial city . The gates were closed with a mountainous blazing defensive formation online .
The flames and screams of war raged on right outside .
In the sky, beasts were flying along powerful weapons . Victims would occasionally fall down from the clouds .
Two rays of light flew out from the inner palace and soared to the sky like two stars . Feiyun saw that it was the two Divine Consorts .
“How many men do you have in the imperial city right now?” Feiyun asked .
Princess Luofu’s brows furrowed: “Half-step and up experts are outside since this was too unexpected, what do you have in mind?”
Feiyun grimaced as well: “We should be capturing their leader first . ”
The princess understood . If they had enough forces, they could rush into the imperial city and kill the crown prince . At that point, Beiming Moshou’s plans would fall apart no matter what .
However, no one expected this development so both sides had to adjust on the spot . The princess’ force right now couldn’t take on the crown prince’s men, let alone killing him .
Only an hour had passed since the start of the trouble . Ordinary people would be panicking but the princess remained cool and collected, a testament to her great mind .
“We need to leave now then . ” Feiyun decided .
“We’re just going to give the imperial city to Long Shenya?” The princess asked .
Feiyun insisted: “First, as long as Beiming Moshou’s men can’t occupy the city, it’s fine to let him stay since he can’t do anything anyway . ”
“Second thing, his men right now can’t handle taking the Imperial Seal and dragon stone . ”
“Third of all, he does have a Giant though, so if we continue to stay here, we’ll only be food . Luofu, persistence is important, but in the grand scheme of things, giving up can also be a type of offense . ”
“Fourth, don’t you want to find the letter and dragon robe?”
She was finally convinced and summoned her imperial carriage resembling a magnificent palace . Eight dragon souls rushed to the front, more than ten meters long . They roared thunderously and the carriage began to move .
This was the fastest carriage in Jin; not even a Giant could catch up .
As he was boarding, he noticed a familiar figure jumping over the walls of the palace . His jump was incredible - twisting his waist and arching his chest, legs together and straightened back to turn 720 degrees in the air . He landed without any difficulty and continued with such expertise and mastery .
Bi Ningshuai looked around with his treacherous eyes and confirmed that the coast was clear before sneaking into an alley like a phantom .
“Bi Ningshuai!” Feiyun disappeared from the palace and instantly emerged before Ningshuai in the alley .
Ningshuai looked up and saw Feiyun; his reaction was turning around to flee .
“Whoosh!” Princess Luofu had landed as well on the other side to cut off his escape path .
Ningshuai stopped and straightened his back: “Ah, the two of you must be on a date, hehe, I won’t bother you then, see ya . ”
He started walking towards Feiyun, wanting to leave in a cool manner .
Feiyun stretched out his arm to stop the guy and smiled: “My friend, what do you have there in your pocket?”
“Nothing!” Ningshuai covered his body like a young bride afraid of being ravaged . He shook his head repeatedly: “Really nothing!”
This guy snuck around the imperial palace in this manner? He must have snatched some items .
Moreover, Feiyun could see his stomach protruding like a pregnant lady . Who was he trying to fool?
Bi Ningshuai has always been a thief . He must be taking advantage of the chaos to sneak into the imperial city for ill-gotten gains - not surprising at all .
The princess took out a sword with a pulsing glint . She walked slowly forward: “You must be the culprit behind the consort’s death . I will have your head as an offering to her . ”
His legs grew weak since he felt guilty about stealing from her house because she was a real princess . He hid behind Feiyun and said weakly: “Feiyun, we’re tried-and-true friends, tell the princess that she got the wrong person . I’ve never been a killer . ”
Feiyun naturally knew that Luofu only wanted to scare him so he smiled: “Well… I can’t testify for you since we both saw you coming out of the imperial city, and there’s no feast going on there . ”
“I was only… Goddamn it, the two of you are so cruel! Nothing good ever comes out of meeting you, Feng Feiyun . I’m always screwed in the end, fine, take whatever you want!” Ningshuai gritted his teeth and took out a spatial bag, holding it in front of Feiyun .
This bag was a spirit treasure with enough space inside to hold a one-hundred-meter-long palace . It was filled right now with colorful lights oozing out . Just how many treasures were inside?
Feiyun ignored the treasures but he noticed something else inside the thief’s pocket, barely visible behind the bag . It was a square, black badge made of special materials - identical to the King’s Order .
Feiyun stretched out his hand: “Give me the King’s Order . ”
“Talking about this? It’s not the King’s Order, just a rare piece of metal that has some strange power . I can’t put it in my spatial bag . ” Ningshuai took it out to show its appearance .
It was a square badge, completely black and half a foot long . It was made from the same material as Feiyun’s King’s Order . He mistook it because he only saw one corner .
“That’s… the Imperial Seal…” The princess was ecstatic and immediately snatched it from Ningshuai .
It glowed golden in her hand after feeling her draconic energy . The black order immediately exploded with light and revealed mysterious runes containing dao laws . An imperial aura capable of toppling the mountains and overturning the seas oozed out .
Ningshuai’s eyes almost dropped to the ground . He was forced down on the ground, butt first, because of this pressure .
The princess quickly recalled her energy and the order turned black again . She breathed heavily with an orchid scent, incapable of calming down . This was the thing she has always dreamed about - absolute power and authority!
Anyone could be drowned out by the temptation of authority .
Feiyun quietly stood there and watched the whole thing . Her eyes right now resembled Shui Yueting’s eyes when she killed him with one thrust . Both were women who desired power .
He didn’t care about this . After finding Nangong Hongyan and carrying out another promise, he would leave Jin since he had no attachment to this place .
The princess took a deep breath and calmed down: “How did you get this Imperial Seal?”
Ningshuai wanted to cry . He could become famous in the world of thieves if this news were to break out, but now the princess had taken it away from him .
‘I’m motherfucking blind, shouldn’t have shown it at all . ’ Ningshuai thought to himself before replying: “Got it from an old eunuch . ”
“What does he look like?” The princess was in disbelief .
“White brows, non-protruding throat, a big mole between the eyes, oh, and hands like two hooks . ” He said .
Feiyun and the princess exchanged glances . This person was definitely the Central Chief Attendant . This powerful cultivator still became a victim?
Suddenly, a shout made the sky vibrate: “Little thief! Where are you hiding?!”
This was the voice of this attendant who noticed the aura of the Imperial Seal earlier when Luofu activated it . He was running for this area right now . This massive and fierce aura seemed like it came from a gigantic being .
Feiyun grabbed Ningshuai’s shoulder and threw him into the carriage . He and the princess jumped up there as well . The eight dragon souls broke through the sky and turned into a golden ray .
Meanwhile, a palm strike spanning for dozens of meters descended from the sky . It destroyed the palace above and left a gigantic print on the ground where the carriage used to be .
If they were even half a second late, they would have turned into scraps right now .
1 . Non-protruding throat is Adam’s Apple, but it feels weird using it in a Chinese novel . Using scientific anatomical terms are weird too
