Lu Qingshuang said anxiously, "How long will this be delayed? If it drags on any longer, the Chaozhen Clan will invade our Central Plains!"
Lu Chenguan shook his head but didn't say anything more.
Ye Feng stood up and said, "Then let's stop here for now. The current situation is unpredictable and hard to see clearly, so we can't hastily take sides, much less blindly support any particular prince."
“Mr. Ye is right.” Lu Chenguan nodded in agreement.
Night fell.
Ye Feng had just come out of the room when he saw Luo Mengxuan peeking in his direction.
Night Breeze chuckled, "Senior Sister Luo, aren't you asleep yet?"
"Junior Brother Ye, you haven't rested either?" Luo Mengxuan said with a smile.
Then Luo Mengxuan walked over and asked in a low voice, "Junior brother, are you planning to sneak into the palace tonight?"
"How did you know?" Night Wind asked in surprise.
"Just as I thought! We've known each other for so long, how could I not see what kind of person you are? You're definitely not the kind of person who sits and waits for death; you only take the initiative!" Luo Mengxuan said with considerable pride.
Then Luo Mengxuan grabbed Ye Feng's hand and said, "Junior Brother Ye, I'll go with you. Let's sneak into the palace together at night."
"Let's forget it, I can go alone. There's the Imperial Advisor in the palace, and the Demon Queen is hiding in the shadows. If I bring you along, I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of you," Ye Feng said seriously.
"Who asked you to take care of me? I'm very capable too, I won't hold you back," Luo Mengxuan said.
"Listen to me," Ye Feng said, emphasizing his words.
Luo Mengxuan finally nodded, but her reluctant little expression was just too funny to look at.
After comforting Luo Mengxuan, Ye Feng used a concealment technique to hide his aura and left the inn, flying towards the palace.
The entire palace is protected by a large defensive array, making it impossible to enter from the air.
So when they arrived near the palace, the night wind fell from the sky, trying to use earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a type of magic that allows one to enter the palace).
However, to Ye Feng's surprise, this defensive array even had an underground barrier.
In other words, the entire palace is protected by this spherical defensive array, completely isolated from both the air and underground.
There are only two ways for Ye Feng to enter the defensive formation. The first way is to force his way in.
With Ye Feng's Saintly Realm strength, breaking into this formation wouldn't be too difficult.
The problem is that forcibly breaking in will inevitably damage the great formation, and even if it only damages a part of it, it will definitely alert the guards in the palace.
The second method is to break this defensive formation using normal methods.
This will take some time to do.
After a moment's thought, Ye Feng prepared to use a second method.
After all, there were too many experts in Tang Hong's dream, more than one of whom had entered the Saint Realm, and there were even incomplete magic weapons.
Since that's the case, it's best to be careful to avoid making a mistake.
Just as Ye Feng was preparing to break through the defensive array, several cargo wagons drove in from a distance, about to enter the palace.
The night wind opened its all-seeing golden eyes and knew at a glance what was loaded in those cargo wagons.
It's all ingredients!
Clearly, these wagons were transporting ingredients to the royal kitchen in the palace!
Night Wind was secretly delighted. He quietly slipped into the past, entered the cargo wagons, and prepared to sneak into the palace with them.
The convoy stopped at the palace gates, and the palace guards immediately went forward to inspect it.
However, Ye Feng's concealment technique was so skillful that the guards did not detect any trace of him and quickly allowed the caravan to pass.
It's true that timing is everything.
Night Wind thought to himself, taking the opportunity to observe his surroundings.
Before long, they arrived at the Imperial Kitchen.
The train convoy stopped, and a group of eunuchs ran out of the imperial kitchen to unload the goods.
Night Breeze then got off the carriage and left quietly, unnoticed by anyone.
The night wind continued to blow deeper into the palace, and soon they encountered a lone guard.
Just when Ye Feng was worried about not being familiar with the surroundings, this lone guard practically delivered himself to his doorstep.
Night Wind then took a step forward and stood behind the guard, raising his right hand and placing it on the top of his head.
Pure Dragon Emperor True Qi surged continuously from Ye Feng's palm, flowing into the guard's head to search his memories.
Before long, Ye Feng had finished searching the soul and left.
The guard fell into a coma and lay unconscious on the ground.
However, not long after, the guard was discovered by others and woken up.
"Strange, how did I fall asleep here..."
The guard got up from the ground, scratching his head with a face full of confusion.
Ye Feng has now mastered the Soul Searching Technique to a high degree. As long as the opponent's cultivation level is not particularly high and they do not put up too much resistance, Ye Feng can ensure that he will not harm them while performing the Soul Searching Technique.
Now, through soul searching, Ye Feng has obtained the guard's memories, and everything in the palace is no longer unfamiliar to him.
Ye Feng then stopped wandering aimlessly around the palace and headed straight for the Minglong Palace.
Minglong Palace was the old emperor's bedroom!
The old emperor is unconscious, and most likely he is in the Minglong Palace!
However, to Ye Feng's utter surprise, he had only just arrived near the Minglong Palace when he sensed a hidden aura emanating from it.
"who!"
The night wind gave a soft shout and raised its hand to grab.
The shadow hidden in the darkness was suddenly pulled out by the night wind, revealing its true form!
It was actually the Black Dragon God!
The Black Dragon God looked extremely shocked; he probably never expected to run into Ye Feng.
"So it was you. You also came to sneak into the palace at night?" the Black Dragon God said with a sneer.
"You too?" Night Wind asked in return.
"Hehe, it seems I got there first, you're late!"
As the Black Dragon God spoke, his hand, hidden in his sleeve, began to gather true energy, preparing to make a move.
However, the Black Dragon God-King held back, not unleashing that martial skill.
“If we find another place, I will definitely settle our differences, but this is not a suitable place to fight,” said the Black Dragon God.
"You want me to let you go? That's not impossible, but you must tell me why you came to the palace," Ye Feng said coldly.
The Black Dragon God said without any politeness, "I came to the palace naturally to see if the old emperor is dead or not. Isn't that the same purpose you came here for?"
"Then is the old emperor still alive?" Ye Feng asked.
"Do you think I'd tell you?" the Black Dragon God said with a sneer.
"Since you're not cooperating, don't blame me."
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, he flicked his right hand, and the Zhou Xing Sword appeared in his hand.
Seeing that Ye Feng was about to make a move, the Black Dragon God exclaimed in shock, "You're going to make a move in the palace? Are you crazy?!"
