Chapter 270 I Can’t Afford to Gamble
"Who is this man? Should we kill him?" Qian Heng's eyes flashed with murderous intent. They had finally arrived here, and they absolutely could not let this man delay them.
Jiang Yunxi glared at her and taught her, "Girl, don't just keep talking about killing."
Qianheng was stunned and her pupils shrank.
She actually said the exact same words as her. She used to have a bad temper and liked to use violence to solve problems. Naturally, that offended many people and made the relationship very strained.
Until she showed up.
She told her that girls shouldn't always fight and kill, but that fighting and killing those who should be beaten and those who should be killed might not necessarily solve the problem.
"I understand." Qianheng suppressed the surging emotions in her heart.
"Young Master Liu." Jiang Yunxi called out as she looked at the white figure. Although it was just a back view, she knew it was Liu Qingbai. She didn't expect that the Imperial Master had gone out and arranged him here.
Liu Qingbai quickly stood up when she heard the familiar voice. "Miss Jiang, why are you dressed as a man? Are you going to the secret room?"
Otherwise she wouldn't have come here in disguise.
"We're just going down to take a look. We promise not to touch anything inside. If you let us go down, we'll come out soon. If you don't want us to go down, we'll have to take action." Jiang Yunxi said that she had to take a look tonight.
It would be best if we could convince Liu Qingbai.
After all, this is the imperial palace. If a fight breaks out here, Emperor Su Ming will definitely be furious tomorrow.
This is probably why the emperor arranged Qin Fu to come here, because he didn't want to cause any big commotion. She will remember this favor in her heart.
"Miss Jiang, do you really want to go down? Before leaving the East Palace, my master specifically told me to guard this place well and not allow anyone to go down." Liu Qingbai said seriously.
"We have to go." Jiang Yunxi said firmly. She and Qianheng had come here and there was no way they would give up.
"If you must go, just knock me out. This is the only way I can help you." Liu Qingbai said helplessly. He didn't want to fight with her here.
Jiang Yunxi's mouth twitched slightly. "Just fall to the ground and pretend to be unconscious. I promise to be out soon."
Liu Qingbai nodded and fell to the ground.
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
Qian Heng: "..."
Jiang Yunxi didn't dare to waste time, and took Qianheng to the secret passage quickly and familiarly.
Qian Heng sensed it and said, "There's so much dead energy here. The imperial palace has built such a horrible place. What's wrong with their brains?"
Jiang Yunxi: "You're right, you're really out of your mind."
Qian Heng: "..."
"After you go in, you should sense carefully to see if there is any breath of the big devil there, but I have to remind you that you are not allowed to touch anything without my permission." Jiang Yunxi said seriously.
Since she had promised Liu Qingbai, she would do what she said.
"I understand." Qian Heng said honestly. She would not make her angry before she was sure whether she was the person she was looking for.
Arrived at the stone door of the secret room.
Jiang Yunxi quickly broke the formation, and then she found that there was another formation added on the stone gate. She smiled slightly, took out the golden paintbrush and waved it quickly, and the stone gate opened quickly.
The two rushed in quickly.
"This is where the big devil was suppressed and dismembered. It should be under that altar." Jiang Yunxi said.
"Strange, I don't sense any evil energy. Could it be sealed by this altar?" Qian Heng said after sensing it. There was not a trace of evil energy here, but it was indeed a bit weird.
Jiang Yunxi frowned: "Can the evil spirit be sealed?"
Qian Heng said affirmatively: "Of course it can be suppressed."
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
"Tai Chi Soul-Calming Diagram, there are sealed souls here." Qian Heng quickly walked towards the wall with the mural.
"Are you sure there is a sealed soul here?" Jiang Yunxi's heart was lifted, so her suspicion was right, her soul and spirit were sealed here.
She looked at the mural, still feeling an indescribable discomfort in her heart.
"I won't make a mistake. This mural is the Tai Chi Soul-Calming Diagram, which is used to seal the soul. Could it be that the big devil still has his soul here?" Qian Heng's voice gradually became cold.
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
Don’t talk nonsense, I’m not a big devil!
Of course, she didn't dare say this directly.
Qianheng turned and walked towards the altar. It was obvious that the person who arranged all this was very attentive. That was why the big devil's corpse could not cause trouble. Once she found a way, she would definitely destroy the other party completely.
"There are many formations set up on this altar. We really should have so many. Otherwise, if the big devil comes out, it will definitely bring disaster to this continent."
"Maybe the one being suppressed here is not the big devil." Jiang Yunxi said lightly. She still firmly believed that she was not the big devil.
Qianheng looked at her and rolled her eyes. "Why do I feel like you really don't want the big devil to be suppressed here?"
Jiang Yunxi looked at her frankly, "I don't sense any evil energy here. If the great devil is really sealed, there will definitely be evil energy."
Qian Heng curled her lips, "The formation can seal and suppress it, so naturally outsiders can't sense it."
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
"It's very easy to determine whether the big devil is suppressed here. Just break the formation of this altar." Qian Heng actually wanted to confirm whether the big devil's body was here.
"The Imperial Master said that if the formation of the altar is broken, the palace will collapse and an earthquake will occur in the capital. I can't afford the gamble, so I'm leaving." Jiang Yunxi said and walked out quickly.
"Don't you want to confirm it?" Qianheng chased after him.
"I have thought of other ways to confirm it." Jiang Yunxi smiled. He didn't dare to move the altar easily, so he could only use other methods.
"What method?" Qianheng asked curiously.
"secret."
Qian Heng: "..."
When they went out, Liu Qingbai was still lying on the ground.
"Mr. Liu, I have done what I promised you. We are just here to take a look. I will remember the favor you did me today. Thank you." Jiang Yunxi said and left quickly. It would be better to leave the East Palace early.
Liu Qingbai quickly stood up and looked at Jiang Yunxi's back with a thoughtful look on his face.
Jiang Yunxi quickly found Zhan Beiyuan, and the group left the East Palace.
Zhan Beiyuan asked Qi Yan to take Qian Heng out of the palace first, and he and Jiang Yunxi went to Defu Palace.
"Greetings to the Emperor, thank you very much." Jiang Yunxi said gratefully.
"You, why are you so stubborn? Why are you so interested in the altar in the secret room?" The emperor asked curiously. In fact, her stubbornness was very similar to that of Beiyuan's mother.
"I'm not interested in the altar. I'm interested in the big devil suppressed there. To be precise, I want to find out whether it's the big devil suppressed there or something else." Jiang Yunxi said frankly.
The Emperor quickly sat up straight, frowning and asking, "What do you mean? Do you suspect that the one suppressed there isn't a great demon?"
"Yes, because I sensed my missing soul and spirit there." Jiang Yunxi no longer concealed it. He wanted to find out the matter of the altar and would need the help of the emperor in the future.
