1390: Array Formation

Array Formation

The King kept Destiny Monk in the court, claiming that he was afraid of the strangeness in the Saint Divine Land or because he was protecting Destiny Monk's safety, but in fact, the King was imprisoning Destiny Monk in case any accidents happened.1

Destiny Monk could predict heaven and the future, but he was just a monk. The King was on the throne, way above Destiny Monk.

That was why he was very annoyed by the array formation set in front of Destiny Monk's yard. He had intended to break through it.

He had ordered the imperial army to break it, and then some elites, but none were able to break the array formation and reach Destiny Monk.

The King had no choice but to give up trying to break the array formation.

He sent Gu Chaoyan to go to Destiny Monk first, because he wanted to cause trouble for her. And when she was in deep trouble, he would step forward and solve the problem himself.

He even looked forward to Gu Chaoyan being embarrassed in front of him.

He had not expected that Gu Chaoyan would break the array formation so easily and go inside the room directly.

De Fu subconsciously believed that Gu Chaoyan might have been looked down upon by the King, who should make a new plan.

He hurried to Qianqing Palace so much that the decorations in his hair became messy, and snowflakes landed upon his head.

He came to Qianqing Palace, saying hurriedly, "My King!"

The King was reading while he held a hand warmer. He was in a leisurely mood when he saw De Fu's anxious face, so he became serious, and frowned.

De Fu… For some reason, he keeps making mistakes these days.

He first allowed him to get a rash, probably because he had not taken good care of him. And now, he was so anxious just because he had run into such a small matter. What a terribly-mannered person!

The King was furious.

He said angrily, "What happened? Didn't you take Gu Chaoyan to Destiny Monk directly? Is she still not in the court?"

He did not think that anything would happen to Gu Chaoyan.

He was the King, after all. Gu Chaoyan and his Eighth Son had to obey him and take him as their supporter. It was a good thing for her to be able to treat him in court, so she should not want to make a mistake.

He wondered if something happened because De Fu made a mistake again. If that happened, he was not going to skip his punishment! He had been working for him for decades, but he still needed to be punished.

De Fu kept thinking about what he saw with Gu Chaoyan, and whether she was going to help Lord Huai in some way. If that was the case, the King and the Crown Prince would be in big trouble.

He did not sense the King's emotion.

He said anxiously, "My King, I did bring Gu Chaoyan directly to Destiny Monk, but the moment she arrived, she broke Destiny Monk's array formation and walked into the room directly."

"…"

"No one is able to break the array except for her, so I was very worried that something weird might happen, so I hurried here to inform you about this."
