Hearing Yu Bie Liu's words, Long Fei immediately looked at him with surprise.
Exploring the Imperial Palace? He had been in this palace for thirteen years, so his familiarity with it was self-evident. However, he had never discovered anything unusual in the palace.
The female corpse had previously said that she knew some of her situation, and then she took him out of the tomb palace and asked to explore the secrets of the imperial palace.
Could it be that his affairs were related to this palace? Or perhaps, to someone in the palace?
Long Fei suddenly thought of the emperor's attitude towards him.
She kept mentioning his deceased "mother" in front of him, constantly expressing her regret, and constantly showing her favor for him.
One thing after another, he acted like a good father, a good father in the royal family.
Long Fei thought back to the past when he was still not very sensible.
He believed in the emperor's favor for him and was extremely dependent on him. He would go to talk to him about everything. At that time... he felt very happy and very blessed.
If he had not discovered one day that all his actions were placed on the emperor's desk and he had found that he was completely under the emperor's control.
Maybe he simply... wouldn't feel that his life was fake, wouldn't resolutely step into the cemetery knowing that there was something wrong with it, wouldn't meet the female corpse and Song, and learn all the truth from their mouths.
The emperor seemed to have created a false paradise, trapped him in it, and made him indulge in its beauty and not seek the truth.
If a wild beast is kept in a cage and fed with good meals every day, it will lose its wildness over time and trust the executioner, until one day, its head is chopped off with a knife.
Just like...the emperor and him.
Long Fei suddenly felt very confused and complicated, and even didn't know what to think.
Although he disagreed with the emperor's behavior of monitoring him, he had always regarded the emperor as his father over the years.
Now, after peeling off the superficial illusion, I suddenly see the naked truth... I don’t know whether I should be sad or angry.
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the complicated emotions in his heart, Long Fei looked at Yu Bie Liu beside him and asked, "Is it the emperor who made me like this?"
He still wanted to confirm it from Yu Bie Liu. Maybe he was just mistaken?
Yu Bie Liu curled her lips, revealing a faint smile, and shrugged and replied, "I don't know."
The expression on Long Fei's face suddenly fell. He really wanted to ask the female corpse in front of him if she was willing to tell him something.
You can't even tell him a question that only requires a yes or no answer?
Ignoring Feizi's speechless expression, Yubieliu took a step and walked out of the palace.
Long Fei hurriedly followed, "Then let me change the question. Why did the emperor do this? Does he have any grudge against me?"
In fact, it is still the same question, just asked in a different way. As long as the female corpse answers the reason why the emperor did this, it can be proved that he is the culprit.
"I don't know."
Looking at Yu Bie Liu with resentment, Long Fei asked again, "...Sister said she wanted to explore the palace. What? The emperor's secrets?"
"I don't know."
With your answer, our conversation can't continue!
Long Fei looked at her speechlessly, "Then sister can always tell me where we are going next, right?"
"No... well, a dungeon!"
Yu Bie Liu subconsciously wanted to answer that he didn't know, but suddenly realized Feizi's question and quickly changed his words.
After he finished speaking, he took out a talisman and slapped it on his chest. Then, instead of taking his hand away, he touched it.
Long Fei: "..." If he didn't go up, he would be courting death, so he had to fight with the female corpse!
"What is this talisman used for?" Long Fei asked.
Yu Bie Liu directly picked him up, rushed out of the palace and flew into the air, "The concealment talisman can make people unable to see you and hear you speak."
…
In the dim underground, in a sealed and narrow space.
Long Fei always felt that he knew the palace well enough. After all, it was where he had stayed for more than ten years, and except for some corners, he had been to most places.
It was not until now, when the female corpse carried him down from a pond in the imperial garden, that he realized how... ignorant he was.
The Imperial Garden is the place with the best scenery in the palace. On weekdays, the emperor, concubines, princes, princesses and others often come here to enjoy the scenery. It is a very popular place.
Long Fei had come here many times, but he never knew that there was such a place down there.
In the entire space, there are only a few shining pearls inlaid on the walls. The brightness is not high, and people can only barely see the scene in the space.
There is a water dungeon in the center of the space, in which is trapped a young man with disheveled hair and an unclear face.
Black chains as thick as arms were tightly wrapped around the young man's wrists and ankles, with strange purple lines flashing on them.
At this time, Yubieliu was holding Feizi and floating in front of the young man.
Long Fei felt the emptiness under his feet and hesitated for a moment before saying, "How about we both go down first?"
To be honest, it's really not comfortable to be carried by a corpse like this.
The dungeon only occupied half of the space, so they had a place to stay.
As soon as he finished speaking, the young man in the dungeon suddenly raised his eyes, revealing a sharp-edged face.
Long Fei: “⊙ω⊙”
What happened to the promise that you wouldn't see me or hear my voice? That was true of the people I met outside, but this person in front of me...wasn't he a human?
"He is a human, but not a mortal, but a cultivator." Yu Bieliu understood Feizi's doubts and spoke, then slowly descended, put Feizi on the ground, and tore off the talisman on his chest.
The young man looked at the man and the corpse that suddenly appeared, his eyes flashing with brilliance, staring at them closely.
Long Fei was also looking at the young man in front of him. A cultivator, a living cultivator, um... seemed to be no different from ordinary people.
But Yu Bie Liu stepped forward onto the water surface, step by step, and walked to the young man whose half body was submerged in the water.
Looking down at the young man with a smile, Yubieliu said, "The last time the emperor celebrated his birthday, I discovered this place while strolling around, but then I forgot about it."
So you just remembered it, became interested, and brought him along? Long Fei nodded in realization.
"I didn't expect that there was a big shot trapped here..." Yu Bieliu raised his eyebrows.
The young man squinted at her, "Do you recognize me?"
Long Fei also pricked up his ears unconsciously, waiting for the female corpse's next words.
"Fifteen years ago, the husband of the Jade Purity Palace Master, Venerable Moquan, disappeared. The entire Jade Purity Palace was mobilized to search for him, even issuing a reward. Anyone who provided accurate information would receive a Jade Purity Pill!"
"A seventh-grade elixir! Your wife is quite willing to give it away." Yu Bie Liu sighed, then said with a smile, "Who would have thought that the elder of a great cultivation sect would be trapped in this mortal palace?"
