Chapter 2078
The Yellow Springs Cult Attacks
Wu Hong glanced at the Tianxuan Palace disciples present and saw that they did not seem nervous or guilty. He wondered if they had really misunderstood the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Judging from the appearance of these junior brothers and sisters, they don't seem to be imprisoned or have betrayed Tianxuan Palace.
Wu Hong then said directly, "The Palace Master sent me to Guangling City to inquire about the Holy Maiden's condition."
Upon hearing Wu Hong's words, the disciples of Tianxuan Palace looked at each other with a puzzled expression.
At this moment, a male disciple asked, "Senior Brother Wu, why are you inquiring about the Holy Maiden's situation? Isn't she staying safely in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion?"
Wu Hong asked, "The Holy Maiden was not imprisoned by the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion?"
No sooner had Wu Hong asked the question than a female disciple retorted, "Why is the Zhennan Prince's Mansion imprisoning the Holy Maiden?"
This……
Seeing that everyone seemed to know nothing, Wu Hong felt that he had come to the wrong person.
After thinking for a moment, Wu Hong finally said, "I would like to meet with the Holy Maiden. I wonder if my fellow disciples could help me convey a message to her?"
A disciple of Tianxuan Palace immediately said, "Senior Brother Wu, if you want to see the Holy Maiden, you can go directly to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."
Wu Hong frowned slightly. Sending him to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion would be tantamount to walking into a trap.
If he went to the Prince of Zhennan's mansion and was arrested by the people there, how could he send messages back?
only……
The Prince of Zhennan's mansion didn't even bother with these disciples of Tianxuan Palace, and their Holy Maiden even appeared on the streets from time to time, so it seemed that she wasn't restricted in her freedom. How could they possibly arrest him?
After thinking it over, Wu Hong finally decided to take the risk and meet Mu Yunxi. Only by seeing Mu Yunxi in person would he know what the Zhennan Prince's Mansion was really like.
Thinking of this, Wu Hong said, "Alright then, I'll go to the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion now."
Upon hearing this, a female disciple immediately said to Wu Hong, "Senior Brother Wu, there's no need to rush. Let's eat first, and then we'll go to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion together."
Wu Hong did not refuse, and then sat down on a wooden stool in the private room, saying, "That's fine too."
After the meal, the disciples of Tianxuan Palace led Wu Hong to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
On the way to the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, Wu Hong was still very uneasy, fearing that all of this was a trap set up by the Prince of Zhennan's mansion.
However, after arriving at the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, he found that no one was restricting his freedom, and he was able to meet Mu Yunxi without any problems.
In the courtyard, Mu Yunxi sat in front of a stone bench, her gaze sweeping over Wu Hong.
Standing next to Mu Yunxi was Feng Lin, an elder of Tianxuan Palace.
Feng Lin spoke first, saying, "Wu Hong, it must have been the Palace Master who sent you to gather information, right?"
Upon seeing Wu Hong, Feng Lin immediately guessed the purpose of his visit.
Seeing that Feng Lin directly stated the purpose of his visit, he could not hide it, so he said, "The Palace Master saw that the Holy Maiden had not returned for a long time and was worried that you might have encountered danger, so he specially sent a disciple to inquire about the situation."
At this moment, Mu Yunxi said directly to Wu Hong, "Go back and tell the Palace Master that we are fine."
At this point, Mu Yunxi continued, "By the way, I'll write a letter to the Palace Master later, and you can personally deliver it back."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Yunxi asked a female disciple of Tianxuan Palace to bring her paper and pen, and then she began to write a letter in front of Wu Hong.
Mu Yunxi quickly wrote down her experiences at the Zhennan Prince's Mansion in a letter, then put the letter away and handed it to Wu Hong.
Seeing this, Wu Hong asked in confusion, "Holy Maiden, aren't you going back to Tianxuan Palace?"
Mu Yunxi replied, "I have other things to do, so I won't be going back for now."
“After you give the letter to the Palace Master, he will naturally understand why I stayed in Guangling City.”
Wu Hong didn't say much. After taking the letter, he said, "I understand. If the Holy Maiden has nothing else to say, I'll take my leave."
Mu Yunxi said, "Okay, be careful on the road."
Wu Hong said no more and turned to leave. Watching Wu Hong's departing figure, Feng Lin said, "I'm afraid the Palace Master also suspects that there are foreign forces behind the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."
Mu Yunxi said, "It is indeed puzzling that a Heavenly Realm expert could be born in such a remote place."
"However, there seems to be nothing unusual about the Prince of Zhennan's residence at the moment."
They had stayed at the Zhennan Prince's Mansion for so long, but they hadn't found anything about it that resembled an external force, except for the presence of a Heavenly Realm expert.
Most importantly, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion did not make things difficult for their Tianxuan Palace.
If the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is indeed an external force, then the Zhennan Prince's Mansion must know that there is also a super force behind the Tianxuan Palace, and their goals are likely the same. Therefore, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion will definitely eliminate the people from the Tianxuan Palace.
Feng Lin then changed the subject, saying, "The Zhennan Prince's Mansion has brought everyone to Guangling City. They probably have something big planned next."
The sudden arrival of Bai Qingqing and Ji Yunmeng in Guangling City by the Zhennan Prince's Mansion clearly indicates that they are preparing for something, which inevitably raises suspicions that they may be planning a rebellion.
After hearing Feng Lin's words, Mu Yunxi said, "Not necessarily."
"The fact that the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion did this actually shows that they don't want to get involved in the affairs of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"With the current strength of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, if they want to cause trouble, no one can stop them. Even if Lu Chen wants to become emperor, it's just a matter of Lu Chen saying a word."
After hearing what Mu Yunxi said, Feng Lin felt that there was some truth to it.
……
The moonlight tonight appears exceptionally red, and one can almost smell the blood in the air.
Inside the Prince of Zhennan's mansion, Lu Chen and Yun Yudie were enjoying themselves when Yun Yudie suddenly sat up and turned to look out the window.
Lu Chen, who was lying in bed enjoying himself, noticed that Yun Yudie hadn't moved and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Yun Yudie didn't speak, she just stared out the window.
At this moment, Qu He's voice came from the doorway: "Your Highness, there are quite a few Earth Realm Spirit Martial Artists rapidly approaching the Zhennan Prince's Mansion."
Hearing this, Lu Chen was slightly taken aback.
Before Lu Chen could speak, Yun Yudie got up from him.
She had just sensed an aura that she found extremely repulsive, and she had a premonition that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion would be attacked soon.
After getting up, Yun Yudie quickly dressed.
Seeing that Yun Yudie had gotten up, Lu Chen had no choice but to get up as well and have a maid come in to help him put on his clothes.
The two then walked to the door and looked towards the backyard of the Prince of Zhennan's mansion.
Lu Chen asked, "How many Earth Realm Spiritual Warriors are there?"
Qu He's voice rang out from behind the curtain: "There are ten, among whom one has the most powerful aura, and should be a late-stage Earth Realm Spirit Warrior."
"Moreover, the aura emanating from them is somewhat sinister, suggesting they are not ordinary spiritual warriors."
Lu Chen frowned slightly, and the Yellow Springs Cult immediately came to mind.
In order to deal with the monsters that appeared in Hanjiang City from the Yellow Springs Cult, Lu Chen sent several Earth Realm experts from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to Hanjiang City today. As a result, someone tried to attack the Zhennan Prince's Mansion tonight. He did not believe that this had nothing to do with the Yellow Springs Cult.
Everything the Yellow Springs Sect did in Hanjiang City was clearly intended to distract the Zhennan Prince's Mansion so that they could launch an attack on it.
However, the Yellow Springs Sect certainly did not expect that there was a Heavenly Realm expert in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion.
Lu Chen then asked, "Are you confident you can deal with them?"
Upon hearing Lu Chen's question, Qu He calmly replied, "Your Highness, rest assured, even if they break through to the Heavenly Realm, they are still no match for me, let alone if they are only at the Earth Realm." (End of Chapter)
