"yes!"
After the eunuch left.
The emperor stood in the hall in a daze.
There are rumors outside that there must be a saint level in the royal family, but only he knows that it is not true.
He also asked the Imperial City Bureau to deliberately spread the rumors outside.
Even the battle in the palace can be exaggerated to confuse the spies outside.
"Which master did this? May I thank you?"
Searched all night.
No trace of the master was found.
The emperor was eager to meet this expert. Only by seeing him in person could he feel at ease.
The palace felt subtly calmer.
That afternoon, all kinds of news were flying around the palace.
Many palace maids and eunuchs who failed to escape became nervous.
After a day, many eunuchs and palace maids were sent to hard places such as the laundry room.
In Shouning Palace, Concubine Jing woke up and learned that the palace was protected by experts, and all the palace maids and eunuchs who tried to escape were punished.
Never again mention the matter of letting Li Mu leave the palace during the chaos.
The Dugu family's army withdrew and was hundreds of miles away from Kyoto.
Everyone in Kyoto breathed a sigh of relief.
The war is finally over.
At night, Yichunyuan, Zuishenglou, Fengchen Pavilion and other dens of brothels became bustling again.
In the military tent a hundred miles away.
"The spies in Kyoto have not yet found any information about the Saint-level master in the royal family."
Several elders passed the note around.
"Then let's not wait. A surprise attack tonight is best."
“When people relax after being stressed out, they become more relaxed than usual.”
"Then let's do it tonight! The Grand Elder is already prepared. The young emperor hanged our men on the city wall. This humiliation can be avenged one day earlier, which will help stabilize the morale of the army."
…
At night.
The Ten-Li Pavilion outside Kyoto City.
More than twenty horses stopped here.
"Shangri-La, we're launching a surprise attack tonight. To reduce the risk of being discovered by spies, we need to enter the city on foot."
Dugu Xin bowed to an old man with silver hair.
Horses are too big to be targeted, and they make more noise when running, which is not conducive to sneak attacks.
"Yes! We should walk. Ten miles or more is just a short distance for me, but it will be hard for you."
"Sir, it's as it should be."
Dugu Xin and others retreated, then dispersed and floated towards Kyoto.
The silver-haired old man disappeared in the pavilion in a flash.
The remaining two people signed more than 20 horses to the surrounding woods and then waited quietly there.
Within Kyoto.
Thousands of houses are lit up and everyone is singing and dancing.
No one expected that more than twenty masters would rush to Kyoto.
I never expected that there would be a saint-level warrior among these twenty or so masters.
Everyone believed that with a saint-level master in the palace, the emperor's position was stable.
Saint-level warrior.
If there is even one such person in the world, it is God’s blessing.
On a high tower in Kyoto City.
As Dugu Xin landed on the top of the tower, another figure appeared beside him.
"Grandpa, look! These high-ranking officials are enjoying themselves every day, while the people of the world suffer. It's not that our Dugu family is rebelling, it's simply that the world has suffered from the Great Xia for too long!"
Dugu Xin pointed at several brightly lit buildings in the distance and said to Dugu Taishang.
"You've been Prime Minister for several years, and nothing can change?"
"There are too many distractions from the court, and too many noble families. I can't do anything about it."
Dugu Xin shook his head.
"Alas! You should cultivate your talent well. Your future achievements are limitless. It's such a pity to use your energy on court battles."
Dugu Taishang shook his head and sighed.
"Grandpa, I'm also thinking about the future of the Dugu family. Once our Dugu family dominates the world, then the resources of Daxia will be at my disposal. After achieving the great cause for the family, there will still be time for further cultivation."
"What if we delay so much and miss the opportunity for a breakthrough?"
"Isn't there still Grandpa? When Grandpa becomes a direct disciple of Xuanmen, it will still be in time for me to benefit from his kindness."
"You have already reached the peak of the Spirit Control Realm. Within our sect, you are a proper inner disciple. Train for another two years. If you can't find an opportunity to break through, you'd better follow me."
"Grandpa, what is Xuanmen like?"
A moment later.
Other masters of the Dugu family who were at the level of controlling spirits arrived one after another.
Afterwards, Dugu Xin commanded all the masters of the Dugu family who were in the Spirit Control Realm to rush towards the palace.
Inside Shouning Palace.
Li Mu slowly opened his eyes and looked outside the palace.
"Sure enough, there are still Saint-level masters in this world. I just don't know what these people are doing in Kyoto at this time?"
Coming out of Shouning Palace, Li Mu floated up to a tower in the imperial city and looked towards the tall tower in the distance.
"Such a powerful Qi and blood! But it's a pity that he has only just entered the Saint level. At best, he is at the peak of the second level of the Saint level. If his cultivation was a little higher, perhaps I could fight him for three hundred rounds and hone my swordsmanship."
Took a few glances.
Li Mu looked down upon such an opponent.
Still too weak.
It can be solved with three swords at most.
never mind.
Go back to the palace and rest!
Um?
Just as Li Mu turned around, the saint-level warrior actually headed straight for the palace.
What's the meaning?
assassin!
Is this Saint-level warrior the assassin who attacked and killed the emperor?
That’s awesome!
The day before yesterday, after the death of eight people at the peak of the Spirit Control Realm, an even more powerful one appeared.
No!
A group of experts came who were no less skilled than those from the night before.
You can't even check in quietly.
"Kill them first and see if they can send someone more powerful by then."
The bottleneck is loosening, but not enough.
It would be great if another expert came to spar with us.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
