Leaving the lobby, Lu Yan looked at An Ge, who was still in a daze, with some curiosity. "Hey, it's over, what are you standing there for?" Could it be that you're still stunned because it was your first real combat experience?
Then his crime would be enormous; wouldn't Hu Jiu skin him alive?
An Ge irritably slapped Lu Yan's hand away, "I'm researching a new skill, don't interrupt me."
Lu Yan pursed his lips. "What new skill?"
An Ge turned to look outside the inn. Several figures peeked in, but when they met An Ge's gaze, they were startled and ran away in a flash.
That one glance almost sent An Ge away.
She suddenly remembered the figures she had seen on her way back to the inn from the wilderness. At the time, she thought they were a bit strange, especially since it was late at night. Now she realized that they weren't human at all!
When An Ge turned her gaze to the crowd, she saw a riot of colors.
In her eyes, Emperor Feng Zhao's health bar was green, and his whole body was red, even somewhat purplish. Feng Jinghan's health bar was also red, but the color was lighter than Emperor Feng Zhao's.
On Feng Jinghan's health bar, there was also a crown mark.
Most of the other health bars were green, except for Feng Jingchi and Shi Xinyi, who were red and had a faint red glow on them. An Ge glanced at the shopkeeper and the waiter; they were both emitting a yellow glow.
Upon hearing An Ge's words, Lu Yan's eyes widened in surprise. "How exactly do you use this Eye of Detection? And what color am I?"
An Ge stared at Lu Yan for a long time, then shook her head. "You are the only normal person in my eyes. I can't see colors."
Lu Yan was somewhat disappointed. "Perhaps my luck is mysterious; maybe I'm one of those 'chosen ones' you mentioned."
"Heh, that Heavenly Dao is truly blind."
An Ge knew that Lu Yan was trying to comfort her, and felt a little grateful. "I suddenly realized that you and Xiao Qi are somewhat similar."
Lu Yan chased after him like a cat with its fur standing on end, "Who looks like that stinky fat cat?"
If we're talking about the person Lu Yan gets along with the most—oh, no, the creature—it's Xiao Qi. It's unclear if they're just incompatible, but this human and cat have somehow become enemies.
An Ge was glad she hadn't summoned Xiao Qi, otherwise she wouldn't have had a peaceful journey.
Ignoring Xiao Qi, who was equally agitated in her mind, An Ge slammed the door shut, leaving only Lu Yan's exasperated voice.
"It's finally over!" An Ge breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that the mission is complete, it means that at least Emperor Feng Zhao's life is no longer in danger. Next, it's time to enjoy the show and, incidentally, research the new skills.
An Ge thought of another temporary task and marveled at how timely the reward had come.
Although the skills are not fully understood yet, these different colors probably represent each person's luck.
Emperor Feng Zhao and Feng Jinghan are the current and future emperors, so it's normal for them to have some purple aura. As for the small crown next to Feng Jinghan's health bar, An Ge suspects it's related to his status as the chosen one of destiny.
The health bar represents the attitude towards her; green means friendly, and red means hostile.
The aura emanating from a person represents their fortune; red indicates good fortune, yellow indicates average fortune, and black indicates low fortune.
However, these are all An Ge's conjectures, and the specific situation still needs to be verified.
If that's true, then this Eye of Insight is really useful; at least it can see special people. And being able to see their attitude towards you through their health bar is an unexpected bonus.
It is said that people's hearts are unpredictable, but with the Eye of Insight, she can distinguish between friend and foe.
But why is there no change in Lu Yan? Could it be that his strength is too high?
"Hmm!" An Ge suddenly felt dizzy, and her eyes stung a little.
"What's going on?" She held her forehead with her hand, and it took a while for the dizziness to subside. However, the stinging in her eyes hadn't completely disappeared, and they would occasionally throb with pain.
"Master must be overusing his eyes," Xiaoqi said worriedly.
An Ge had the same idea, but she couldn't find a way to turn off the Eye of Detection. "I have to find a way to turn off the skill, otherwise even if my eyes don't hurt, all those colorful things are enough to give me a headache."
Moreover, the world she saw included not only living people, but also some ghosts.
An Ge is much braver than in her previous life, but some things won't change just because she's stronger, such as her fear of ghosts and snakes.
An Ge took a deep breath. She would have to overcome these fears sooner or later, it just would take some time. She closed her eyes, circulated her internal energy, and covered her eyes with spiritual energy.
She didn't know how much time had passed before the burning sensation in her eyes disappeared, and at the same time, she heard a rooster crowing in her ear.
"I actually cultivated all night." An Ge was somewhat surprised when she saw the faintly brightening sky. It had been a long time since she had cultivated like this since she had calmed her mind.
However, the effect was also very obvious. After one night, she finally found the correct way to use the Eye of Exploration.
An Ge looked at the people sweeping the street and a smile curled up on her lips.
It's so good to have a normal world!
An Ge didn't gossip about how to handle the situation with Feng Jinghan. After all, it was their family matter, and An Ge decided not to add fuel to the fire.
After this incident, Emperor Feng Zhao no longer intended to keep a low profile. Early the next morning, soldiers arrived to escort everyone back to the capital.
As heroes, An Ge and his companion received extremely high treatment and lived a luxurious aristocratic life.
Although the matter was over, An Ge still had a mission to complete and had to continue her journey to the capital. As for Lu Yan, he promptly took on the role of bodyguard.
Compared to An Ge's discomfort, Lu Yan was clearly quite comfortable. "This carriage is not as good as our own. I should have known better than to change it."
"We should keep a low profile when we get to the capital. I told Da Jinku that we'll get off the train when we're almost there."
Lu Yan curled his lip, thinking that no matter how low An Ge tried to keep a low profile, it would be useless.
Although Hu Jiu was also good-looking, he had a "you're asking for death if you dare to look at me" expression, so no one dared to approach him.
But An Ge was different; young girls in the mortal realm adored his elegant, gentlemanly appearance. Thinking of his miserable future, Lu Yan sighed deeply.
In the imperial palace of the capital, Consort Qian looked somewhat flustered.
According to the father's plan, the operation will take place in the next two days.
Consort Qian's initial panic subsided upon recalling the Qian family's Grandmaster's Token. Rumor had it that once the token was issued, it would inevitably summon a Grandmaster to accomplish a task. The Qian family had been fortunate enough to possess one in the past, and it was used for Kang'er's grand ambition.
To prevent Prince Kang from being frightened, Consort Qian wrote a letter, only instructing that she would find an opportunity to assassinate Prince Duan. Zhou Tianyi was the one who assassinated Prince Duan.
Therefore, Feng Jingchi was unaware of the assassination attempt on the emperor, nor did he intentionally conceal it.
Consort Qian knew her son well enough that if he knew his true purpose was Emperor Fengzhao, he would definitely expose his true intentions.
She just didn't expect the assassination to fail.
