Chapter 408: The whole show
Jiang Yunxi pulled Zhan Beiyuan to hide quickly to the side, and the door of the hall slowly opened.
"Why is there no one here? Could it be that the door of the hall opened on its own to welcome us?" Zhan Beiyuan kept looking at the gate, but no one came out.
Jiang Yunxi's mouth twitched slightly, and he whispered, "You're overthinking it. The other party has already come out."
Zhan Beiyuan: "..."
Is the person coming out?
Where?
He saw nothing, not even a ghost.
Jiang Yunxi looked at the person who came out.
The other person was dressed in a white robe that covered her from head to toe, and had a silver mask on her face, but she knew it was a woman.
There was obvious surprise in the woman's eyes when she saw them, but she quickly looked away and left quickly.
After seeing the other party leave, Jiang Yunxi pulled Zhan Beiyuan towards the gate above the clouds. As soon as they entered, the stone door behind them slowly closed, and the yard was brightly lit.
This is a palace, consisting of two parts, front and back. At this time, they are in the front part of the palace. There are large halls on both sides and a large courtyard in the middle.
Jiang Yunxi sensed carefully and found no one else. She looked at the ground and suddenly understood that there was a complicated formation in the palace.
Anyone who breaks in without permission may lose their life if they are not careful.
No wonder the Cang Qiong royal family only arranged guards to patrol outside and there was no one in the palace.
"Did someone just go out?" Zhan Beiyuan asked with doubts in his heart.
"It's a woman. She used invisibility, so you can't see her." Jiang Yunxi explained to him, but he didn't know whether the woman was related to what happened in the capital of Cang Qiong Kingdom.
She came here tonight mainly to dismember the body, so naturally no one would stop her and ask. He would just get the body parts first.
"There is actually invisibility." It was the first time that Zhan Beiyuan heard of this.
"Advanced talismans plus one's own power can activate invisibility, but it won't last long. I wonder what that woman is doing here." Jiang Yunxi had a thoughtful look on his face.
After coming in, she could clearly sense a familiar breath.
A piece of her body was just above the clouds.
"You're not here to dismember the body, are you?" Zhan Beiyuan's dark eyes were cold. He sensed a strong evil spirit here.
"Not necessarily. Remember that huge rock? The evil spirit in the rock comes from here, as well as the evil spirit in the body of the dead." Jiang Yunxi looked at the formation on the ground.
There is no need to break the formation here. As long as you don't step on it randomly, the formation will not be activated.
"So the murderer got the evil spirit from here. Could the woman in white be the murderer?" Zhan Beiyuan frowned. Would the divine bird of the Cangkong Kingdom live in such a place?
"The evil spirit must have been taken from here. The woman in white might be the murderer. There is a formation on the ground. Follow my steps and don't step wrong, or you will trigger the formation."
After Jiang Yunxi finished speaking, he walked towards the yard.
Zhan Beiyuan immediately followed, following in her footsteps.
Jiang Yunxi walked through the front hall and went straight to the back of the palace. She knew that the body parts were in the palace at the back. As soon as she stepped into the back hall, a cold wind blew and an evil spirit rushed towards them.
She raised her right hand and instantly dispersed the evil spirit.
"The evil spirit seems to be emanating from underground." Zhan Beiyuan looked around the yard. Not only was there a formation arranged here, but there also seemed to be a feng shui arrangement.
Jiang Yunxi stared at the hall across the courtyard and said, "Let's go over there."
Zhan Beiyuan: "Okay."
Jiang Yunxi had just taken two steps when the door to the side hall opposite the main hall opened and an old man came out holding a lantern. "I wonder what you two are doing here in the clouds?"
"Take what we need." Jiang Yunxi did not hide it. Since she had successfully entered the cloud, she would definitely get the body parts tonight.
Even if a fight would cause a sensation, she would still do it.
"What is it?" the old man asked calmly.
"A piece of body. As long as the seniors don't stop us, we will take the things and leave. Otherwise, we will have no choice but to take action." Jiang Yunxi said it clearly, expressing her attitude.
The old man laughed and said, "Young lady, you have come to the wrong place. There are no body parts here. This is the holy land of the Cang Qiong Kingdom. It is inhabited by the Cang Qiong Kingdom's guardian bird."
"Divine bird? Are you sure it's not a dark beast?" Jiang Yunxi said coldly. If it really was a divine bird, how could there be such a strong evil spirit here?
"Who are you?" The old man's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"It seems that I was right. Now I have to go into the hall." Jiang Yunxi's face darkened. She wanted to see what the Cang Qiong Kingdom was keeping here.
The old man was furious and said, "This is the sacred land of the Cang Qiong Nation. How can you be so presumptuous?"
The words fell.
He made hand gestures to activate the formation.
As the guardian of the holy land, he would never allow anyone to come in and cause trouble.
"I don't want to be presumptuous, nor do I want to fight. I just want to take a piece of my body and do some justice by the way."
Jiang Yunxi walked into the formation step by step without any fear.
The old man's face changed drastically after seeing that she entered the formation safely. She didn't even trigger the formation's attack. How could she have entered such a complicated formation so accurately?
Jiang Yunxi walked across the yard.
Zhan Beiyuan followed her pace.
Seeing them getting closer and closer, the old man put his hands together and made a seal to prepare for attack. He must not let them enter the hall.
There was a cold arrogance in Jiang Yunxi's eyes. She made a hand gesture with her right hand and threw it towards the other party. The old man instantly froze in his position and could not move.
"What did you do to me!" After the old man made sure that he couldn't move, he had a very bad premonition in his heart. She looked very young, why was she so strong?
"I told you not to move, so as not to get in the way." Jiang Yunxi said and walked towards the main hall door.
"Don't go, don't go in, please, otherwise you will harm the Cang Qiong Kingdom." The old man's cold tone turned into begging, and there was fear and anxiety in his eyes.
Jiang Yunxi stopped, turned around and looked at him, saying with a half-smile, "Then tell us what's inside."
She raised her hands and untied the restraints on him.
After the old man was freed, he glanced at the tightly closed door of the palace and said, "There is indeed a divine bird above the clouds, but it is not a divine beast, but a dark beast that is imprisoned inside."
"The ancestors of the Cang Qiong Nation deliberately declared it a divine bird to intimidate others so that they wouldn't dare to bully the Cang Qiong Nation easily."
"If it is imprisoned, why would they build such a magnificent palace for it?" Jiang Yunxi couldn't understand this.
"It was with the guidance of a master that the ancestors of the Cang Qiong Kingdom declared it to the outside world as a divine bird. In the end, they followed the advice and built the palace above the clouds. Only such a palace is worthy of a divine bird." The old man said truthfully.
"I understand. Let's do the whole act." Jiang Yunxi smiled.
"Girl, you can't go in, otherwise you will disturb the divine bird. If you let it run away, the consequences will be unimaginable." The old man said solemnly, there will be countless casualties in the capital.
Jiang Yunxi looked at the door of the hall. "My body parts are inside. I must get them. Also, I will not let this dark beast get out and wreak havoc on the world."
