C1182 In the Blood Prison
The Imperial Garden.
Holy Flame Emperor sat in the pavilion, reading the scroll in his hand under the night sky.
There were a few ministers waiting in front of the courtyard.
Outside the palace, there were two people waiting.
When the officials who passed by saw one of them, they had to bow and shout respectfully.
"Greetings, Master Jingyue."
"Greetings, Master Jingyue!"
One of the ministers seemed to be in a relationship with Master Jingyue. He was already far away, but he took two steps back and arrived in front of Master Jingyue.
"Master, please go back. I don't think today's matter will be easy to handle. The Great Sovereign was furious, and his face was furious. Please go back first. Don't get yourself into trouble."
After everyone had left.
Lankun raised his head and looked at the sky.
"Teacher, I'm sorry that you're here today. Please go back. I'll deal with it myself.
Lankun said to Master Jingyue, who was standing next to him.
Master Jingyue lowered his head and sighed.
"It seems like today's matter is not between you and me. Even I can't do anything about it."
Master Jingyue said.
At this moment, Master Jingyue was still standing in the palace. He had not left because Holy Flame Emperor had given Master Jingyue face and did not ask the imperial guards to expel him.
If Master Jingyue left, Lankun would be captured by the imperial guards immediately.
As for the so-called marriage proposal, he had not even opened his mouth until now. Under such circumstances, how could he open his mouth?
Lankun himself also knew about it.
However, for Shui Yue, he had to take the risk today.
"Don't worry, teacher. I have my ways."
Lankun bowed to Master Jingyue as well.
Master Jingyue looked at Lankun and patted him on the shoulder. He sighed and turned to leave.
Clearly, Master Jingyue also knew that today's matter could not be accomplished. However, since Lankun wanted to continue working hard, It was up to him. It would be inappropriate for Master Jingyue to stay here any longer.
If he left now, he would have some face left. However, from today onwards, Holy Flame Emperor would not trust Master Jingyue anymore. It was fortunate that he did not list Master Jingyue as an enemy.
After Master Jingyue left, the imperial guards immediately went forward and detained Lankun.
"Let me see Holy Flame Emperor!"
Although Lankun was held by dozens of spears, he did not show any fear. Instead, he stood firmly on the spot.
"Who do you think you are? Do you think we can meet as soon as we meet? Take him down and throw him into the blood prison!"
The vice commander of the Imperial Guards, Zhang Hu, mocked.
However, Lankun just stood there, not moving at all.
Immediately, Zhang Hu pulled out his long blade, using the handle of the blade to heavily hit Lankun's forehead.
However, the handle of the long blade exploded. Obviously, this move wouldn't be able to hurt the Lankun in front of him.
"He does have some skill!"
Seeing this, Zhang Hu used all his strength and kicked Lankun in the stomach.
Bang!
Zhang Hu was wearing heavy armor, and the strength of this kick pierced through the metal and stone, sending Lankun flying with a kick, kneeling on the ground.
Blood was flowing out from between his teeth. Lankun naturally wanted to get up and kill Zhang Hu right now. However, if that was the case, marrying Shui Yue would become a joke.
"Just you wait!"
Lankun fiercely glared at Zhang Hu, but Zhang Hu looked at Lankun with disdain.
"That's scary! Return the young city lord of Kun City! Take him away!"
Lankun was sent into the blood prison by the imperial guards.
This scene was also seen by the Hidden Dragon Guard who came back to report the situation. However, he was also watching from the dark.
"Is it this brat who wants to marry Princess Jingann? He is indeed a little overconfident."
The boy shook his head when he saw Lankun being kicked away.
If it was him, he would have chopped off the lieutenant's leg on the spot.
Then, he wiped his neck. He had even thought of the direction of his attack. Unfortunately, he wasn't the one kneeling there.
"What do you know?"
On the other hand, the girl somewhat understood why Lankun would keep silent. However, after they had reported the situation just now, Holy Flame Emperor had already made up his mind to kill Lankun. Wanting to be together with Princess Jingann was even harder than ascending to the heavens.
Within the Imperial City.
Although Shui Yue was staying in the Fragrance Pavilion, she was extremely concerned about the situation outside. When she heard that Lankun was imprisoned in the blood prison by the Imperial Guards, she became even more anxious.
"You guys let me out! Did you hear that?"
Shui Yue glared at the Vermillion Bird Army in front of her.
However, these Vermillion Bird Army guards ignored Princess Jingann and only refused to guard her in the courtyard.
The chief in charge of the Vermillion Bird Army, who was on duty this time, was Hsu Mo.
Due to the special identity of the princess, Hsu Mo was specially assigned to this place. The people under him were all women, but if they were to be ruthless, these women would not hesitate at all.
After Hsu Mo entered the city, he heard a lot of news.
Especially when he found out that Lee Zongjiu was having a conflict with the royal family. Wasn't this just messing around? If they really started fighting, how many attacks could a small courtyard like Bailu Residence withstand?
"All of you stay here and guard this place. No one is allowed to enter or release this place!"
"If there are any intruders, we will take them down first!"2
Hsu Mo ordered.
"Yes, Chief!"
After that, Hsu Mo quietly left the palace and led a fast horse towards Bailu Residence.
Although the Bailu Residence had spies all over the city, they didn't have the ability to find out about the situation in the imperial palace. At least for now, they weren't strong enough.
Therefore, when Lee Zongjiu returned to the prefecture, he didn't receive any news. All he knew was that Lankun had been gone for an entire day.
Lee Zongjiu sat in the main hall.
He wanted to play with his Dao Ginseng Fruit.
If this fruit was consumed directly, the effects would be extraordinary. At the very least, it would be extremely useful to the current realm. However, if it was used to refine pills, it would have a more perfect effect.
Therefore, Lee Zongjiu was also considering what kind of medicinal pill he could refine this Dao Ginseng Fruit into.
When he heard Zhao talking about the matters in the city and heard that Lankun had been gone for an entire day, he frowned.
"Isn't it just a kiss? Why did he go for a whole day?"
Even his competitor, Lee Zongjiu, had been sent away. In the end, Lankun still had not sent a message.
"The spies in the palace haven't been deployed yet, so it will still take some time to obtain the information in the palace. Our strength isn't enough to infiltrate the palace."
Zhao said.
"Your Bailu Residence is powerful. The imperial palace is definitely not bad. No, the imperial palace has the same level of skill as you. In addition, you can use it more effectively. Some of them are experts sent from all directions, and they are all high-level professionals.
Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps. Liu Pei walked up to the front of the hall.
"Young master, there is a chief of Vermillion Bird Army called Hsu Mo who is asking for an audience outside the door."
"Hmm? Please."
