In the imperial palace, in the Jingfei Palace.
Li Xuan was lying quietly on the beam of the house. Below him, a group of palace maids tied Concubine Jing to the bed.
"Empress Jing, please don't blame us. We are really at our wit's end."
"My Lady, what's wrong with being a concubine? This is what so many women in the world dream of!"
The palace maids were still persuading Concubine Jing not to commit suicide.
"Bah! You're still dreaming about it. Even if I die, I won't give in to you!" Concubine Jing was still struggling.
Li Xuan was a little tired of hearing these words. This method was naturally thought up by Concubine Jing herself, and in fact, this was not the first time she had done this.
She had been stopped before, and she was originally just an ordinary concubine, but in order to please her, the old emperor took the initiative to confer the title of noble concubine on her.
She also knew that this suicide attempt would inevitably exhaust the patience of the old emperor, who was notoriously fickle.
He also had a habit of losing interest in a concubine after having sex with her.
So he will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to get his business done, and then you can make whatever trouble you want. If you want to commit suicide again, he will not stop you.
Li Xuan didn't understand all these twists and turns, he just waited quietly for the old emperor to arrive.
But soon his face changed, because he did not sense the old emperor in his senses, but two talented contestants came here.
Could it be that my position has been exposed?
No, if it was exposed, there wouldn’t be only two people coming.
Bang!
The door of the hall was blasted open by a palm, and two people walked in.
As soon as they entered the room, they were attracted by Concubine Jing's peerless beauty.
Before, they laughed at the old emperor for losing all his image for a woman, but now they even understood the old emperor a little.
It would be a pity to kill such a stunning beauty.
But they all knew that this was in the secret trial realm of the martial arts conference, and there were various elders such as immortals watching outside.
The two looked at each other, and both saw reluctance in each other's eyes.
“What a pity!”
"There's no other way. I have to kill her no matter what!"
Wow!
At this moment, Li Xuan suddenly fell down from the beam, with his right hand as a fist and his left hand as a palm.
Boom! Boom!
He blasted out with a palm and a punch, and the Kingly Divine Fist and the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm burst out, instantly eliminating the two men.
Then Li Xuan turned around and took a look at the tied-up Concubine Jing.
All the palace maids around were frightened silly, even the palace maid who brought the two people with her was stunned where she was.
Wow!
Li Xuan's figure flashed and he came in front of Concubine Jing. He raised his hand and used a sword to untie her, then took her away from here.
But she was just an ordinary person, a weak woman at that, and couldn't even run fast.
Li Xuan could only carry her on his back and quickly shuttle through the palace under the night sky.
"Didn't you say that the old emperor would come?" Li Xuan asked.
Concubine Jing leaned gently on Li Xuan's back and put her face on his back. She was a little disappointed that the old emperor did not come.
But after being carried by Li Xuan, she felt a little happy instead.
"I don't know either, but what is certain is that if there is nothing extremely important or other reasons, he will definitely come."
Listening to Concubine Jing's confident words, Li Xuan began to think. If this was the case, then two reasons could not be ruled out.
The first is that Prince Jing’s rebellion has not been dealt with yet.
But so much time has passed, the two should have decided the winner long ago, and if Prince Jing won, then their mission should have been completed.
But now they are still in the secret realm, which can only mean that Prince Jing has lost.
Then the only possible reason is the second one, which is also the most likely one.
The old emperor's range of activities is limited to the main hall, and the contestants in the inner and outer areas will definitely defend the main hall tightly.
The safest way is to not let anyone out.
If I were in that situation, I would definitely do the same.
Moreover, although there is no time limit for their mission to assassinate the old emperor, there must be a time limit in this regard.
After all, they are not in the real world, but in a test, so they only have a few days at most.
If this time is exceeded, their mission will inevitably fail.
So they only need to guard the hall for a few days, which is very easy for them.
This is said to be a test of strategy and wisdom, but I feel that this is only a test of our core area!
"Forget it, let's not kill the old emperor. How about we just leave the palace?" Concubine Jing suddenly said.
Her eyes were full of expectations for the future.
Li Xuan naturally understood what she meant.
Wow!
His body fell and landed in a dusty hall in the palace.
"Do you know if there are any secret passages in the central hall besides the main entrance?" Li Xuan asked directly.
He didn't respond to Concubine Jing's words at all because it was really nonsense.
Concubine Jing looked at Li Xuan's serious expression, and a strong sense of disappointment suddenly surged in her heart: "Didn't you hear what I just said to you?"
"I say, let's not try to assassinate him again."
"Why?" Li Xuan knew that he couldn't act too hastily, so he could only guide her patiently.
"Because he is not important to us at all." Concubine Jing said.
Li Xuan immediately interrupted, "No, he is very important to me, I must kill him!"
He said this very seriously.
Now, it was Concubine Jing's turn to ask: "Why?"
At this moment, Li Xuan's thoughts raced, and he immediately spoke, "Because he and I have a deep hatred, and my family was executed by him, so if I don't kill him, there is no point in me living."
Concubine Jing looked at Li Xuan, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "How about I help you kill him and start your life anew?"
"Alright! The central hall must be surrounded now, so we need to find a way to get in to have a chance to kill him!"
Li Xuan explained the current situation without any nonsense.
"You just asked me if there is a secret passage. Actually, I have only been in the palace for a few days and I don't know anything about secret passages!" Concubine Jing said seriously.
F*ck me!
Li Xuan suddenly felt like cursing.
But Concubine Jing quickly said, "But I know that someone must know the location of all the secret passages in the palace. As long as we find him, we can eliminate all the secret passages!"
