Chapter 386 Entering the Palace
Emperor Dong Feng made a gesture of wiping his neck.
I have already offended Murong Li. Killing him once is killing him, killing him twice is killing him. There is no room for peaceful coexistence anyway, so I will kill him to the end.
It depends on who will win.
The six men heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. The emperor, in a rare instance, did not blame them. They were moved and said, "Yes, Master, we will guard them well and bring back their heads."
Emperor Dong Feng waved to them, and the six of them left quickly, returned to the inn quickly, and lurked nearby again.
Su Yue didn't know that they were running around outside. They had already eaten dinner in the space and couldn't sleep, so they went to clean up the pile of belongings.
Seeing so many treasures can soothe the angry hearts of both of them.
When they felt sleepy, they returned to the villa and had a good sleep.
By the next day, the two still hadn't come out. They knew that since it was Emperor Dongfeng who sent people to burn them, and since they didn't see Murong Li escape when the fire was burning, nor did they hear their cries for help, and didn't see their bodies, they would definitely not give up. They were afraid that someone was guarding nearby.
Watch for them to appear, and once they appear, kill them.
They are not afraid, because that will inevitably expose their secrets.
Su Yue pouted and said, "Let's go to the palace on the third night. What do you think?"
Murong Li nodded lovingly: "We will do whatever Yue'er says. We will go on time and give Emperor Dong Feng a surprise."
"Uh-huh."
Su Yue nodded. This was a good idea. With the three-day agreement, Emperor Dong Feng would definitely not relax during these three days. At the last moment, it would be night time. Would Emperor Dong Feng still think they were alive? He would definitely think they were really dead and would probably be too happy to sleep.
Then, they showed up just on time.
Thinking of Dong Fenghuang's surprised look, Su Yue felt excited.
"Baji!"
Su Yue gave Murong Li a big kiss on the face. She really liked Murong Li's sinister look.
Murong Li immediately grabbed the benefit that was delivered to his door. How could he miss this rare opportunity? He hugged her tightly and kissed her back.
The two did not show up that day. The shadow guards stayed here for a whole day, but saw nothing, so they passed the news to Emperor Dong Feng.
Emperor Dong Feng, who was feeling uneasy in the palace, did not relax at all when he heard the news and asked the shadow guards to continue watching.
No news is good news. Emperor Dong Feng believed in his heart that the two were dead, but he was still worried because he had not seen their bodies or received any news about them. The three-day agreement had not yet passed.
On the third day, Emperor Dong Feng hurriedly finished his court session and returned to the imperial study, where he waited anxiously, hoping that the day would pass quickly.
It was finally getting night, but the two men still hadn't appeared. Dong Fenghuang felt a little excited. Could it be that the two men were really dead?
After three days of fear and anxiety, Emperor Dong Feng was finally in a better mood. Tonight, he ate two more bowls of rice, sent the palace servants away, and went to bed early.
He hadn't slept for the past two nights and had managed to stay awake. Now he hadn't heard any news from the two of them. He believed that Murong Li and the other two were dead, so he had to get a good night's sleep tonight.
Before going to bed, he withdrew the shadow guards and even the imperial guards, leaving only the officials who originally managed the post station to watch over it.
Wait until this trouble is over and then rebuild it.
In the evening, half an hour before midnight, Su Yue and Murong Li came out of the space. They looked around and saw that the place had become a ruin, but it was covered by white ice and snow, which also concealed the crime of the fire.
Su Yue immediately released her mental power to check. The imperial guards guarding the posthouse were gone. Only a small official and two stewards were in a nearby house.
The Eastern Phoenix Emperor was actually sleeping soundly in his bedroom. She curled her lips into a smile and whispered to Murong Li.
After hearing this, Murong Li nodded, picked up Su Yue, and quickly disappeared into the night.
In the bedroom of Emperor Dong Feng, the palace lanterns at the door were hanging under the eaves and swaying, the candlelight inside was flickering, and the eunuchs guarding the door were curled up and shivering in the cold night.
One eunuch hugged his shoulders, hid his face in his collar, and paced back and forth at the door.
Murong Li held Su Yue and landed gently in the palace next to the bedroom. He then whispered in Su Yue's ear, "Yue'er, look how many people are guarding here and where are they?"
Su Yue nodded and immediately told him how many shadow guards were lurking around the Emperor Dongfeng's bedroom and their specific locations.
The two men originally wanted to come to the emperor with great fanfare, but in order to give him a surprise, they had to put in some effort.
"We don't need to alert these shadow guards. If we alert one, countless more will come out. We can pass through here."
Su Yue quietly told Murong Li that to the right of the East Phoenix Emperor's bedroom, there was a very narrow alley, which should be a drainage ditch, barely wide enough for one person to pass through.
There were only two shadow guards guarding there, and she could take care of them quietly without alerting anyone else.
"Okay." Murong Li nodded.
So Su Yue immediately released her mental power and knocked the two men unconscious.
Murong Li immediately carried Su Yue over.
"Yuer, we can only walk over there, is that okay with you?"
Murong Li reached the entrance of the alley, put Su Yue down and asked, he couldn't go through with her in his arms.
"Okay, we just have to be careful."
"Okay, I'll hold your hand."
Murong Li immediately took Su Yue's hand and walked sideways into the alley, and Su Yue immediately followed.
This was indeed a drainage ditch. It was covered with ice and was very slippery. Su Yue basically slid along it.
"Huh? There's actually a door here?"
When the two of them walked to the middle, they actually found a door.
"It's the opposite door, look."
Murong Li pointed to the other wall.
"Strange, why is there a door across from the street here?"
Su Yue reached out and touched it. It was cold. It was a stone door, not a wooden door.
"Can it be worn through?" Murong Li asked.
Su Yue shook her head: "No, just like the national treasury, it's impossible to penetrate it."
This stone door has almost no gaps, and you can't even notice it unless you're right in front of it.
"Yuer, what do you think could be in this palace? Why is Emperor Dongfeng so cautious?"
There are two palaces next to each other, one is the bedroom of Emperor Dong Feng, and the other seems to be empty.
There must be something unknown in it.
"Do you want to go and take a look?" Su Yue became interested, her eyes sparkling.
"Think about it, and then go find that dog emperor later."
"Well, then use your internal energy to see if you can shatter it."
"Okay, then Yue'er, step back a little."
Su Yue nodded and immediately stepped back.
Murong Li then used his internal strength, placed his palms on the stone door, and then exerted force.
