Because when the Second and Third Palace Masters returned, they were surrounded by a group of men dressed in blue and carrying swords.
When the Second Palace Master was criticizing Ahri, the Third Palace Master sensed something was wrong and turned around to look.
Those people looked like they wanted to kill them. The Third Palace Master recognized some of them as people who had been wantonly played with and imprisoned in the underground palace.
Ahri noticed that the Third Palace Master had discovered the people outside, so she stood up and said, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. They have been waiting for you for a long time."
"Grand Palace Master, what do you mean by that?"
The Third Palace Master tried to get close to Ah Li, but was blocked by Lu Yan's palm.
The Third Palace Master looked at Lu Yanzhi with surprise. When did this person move so fast?
He was just a helpless boy back then, completely at the mercy of others.
Lu Yanzhi said coldly to the outside, "Don't fight here, lest you dirty the Grand Palace Master's residence. If you want to fight, go outside."
The Second Palace Master still looked at the men outside with disdain, and sneered, "It hasn't been that long since we last met, do you really think you have the ability to kill us and avenge your past?"
"What a joke! What a huge joke!"
The Second Palace Mistress wasn't afraid at all. In her eyes, these men were nothing more than a rabble, nothing to fear.
However, the Third Palace Master felt that something was wrong, very wrong.
Ah Li leaned gently against Lu Yanzhi and said in a low voice, "These people have been unwilling to leave because they've been waiting for you. You've been outside for so long; you can see for yourselves whether they're still the same as before."
Do you think I wouldn't dare?
The Second Palace Mistress still looked down on those people. She could crush them like ants back then, and she could do it again now.
Ahri smiled and said, "Then please."
The Second Palace Master flicked her sleeves, hummed, and walked out.
The Third Palace Master glanced at the unmoved Ah Li and Lu Yanzhi, whose martial arts prowess was currently unknown, and she felt a little flustered.
Seeing that the Third Palace Master hesitated and seemed afraid to go out, Ah Li smiled and said, "Are you scared?"
The Third Palace Master gritted his teeth, glanced back at Ah Li, and then followed the Second Palace Master out.
Those women who used the name of the Heartless Palace to commit atrocities in the past received their due retribution long ago, when these men had already achieved their goals.
Those men worked day and night, diligently cultivating, waiting for this day, hoping to kill the two great demons, the Second Palace Master and the Third Palace Master.
Lu Yanzhi even had the leisure to take out a chessboard and sort out the black and white pieces.
He propped his head up with his hand and said, "Grand Palace Master, let's play chess."
Ah Li heard the lively sounds outside and wanted to go out and see, but then she thought that those two were, after all, the second and third palace masters of the Heartless Palace.
If she watches the commotion from the sidelines and gets so angry that she hurts someone, that would be bad.
Ah Li wanted to take the black piece, but Lu Yanzhi simply raised his hand and took it away, saying, "I hold the black piece."
Ah Li neither said it was good nor bad. After seeing Lu Yan place a black piece, she followed suit and placed a white piece.
I don't know how long it rained, but the noise outside quieted down.
Lu Yanzhi sighed softly and muttered, "It still won't work, Grand Palace Master. Let's save this game for later."
Ahri looked down at the chess pieces on the chessboard in front of her. Although she had a better chance of winning at the moment, no one could say for sure until the very end.
Lu Yanzhi stood up and walked out, looking at the men he had trained. Some were lying silently on the ground, while others were being helped up.
The Second Palace Master and the Third Palace Master were not present. Someone clutched their chest and said in a disheveled manner, "Those two vixens escaped."
Lu Yanzhi had already anticipated this situation. After all, they were the second and third palace masters of the Ruthless Palace. They wouldn't have gotten to their positions if they didn't have some skills.
Ah Li didn't come out. She fiddled with the chess pieces in her hand, looking at Lu Yanzhi who was standing with his back to her.
This person's temperament is becoming more and more like hers; you can tell they're a couple at a glance.
Lu Yanzhi waved his hand, "Clean it up. Find a place to properly bury the dead. The injured should go back and recover."
Some of the men helped each other to their feet, while others carried their long-dead brothers and placed them together.
For a moment, no one spoke.
Lu Yanzhi clenched his fist and turned back to find Ah Li.
When Ah Li saw Lu Yanzhi return, she said, "If you had made a move just now, they wouldn't have been able to escape."
Lu Yanzhi looked at Ah Li, "Do you think I can beat them?"
"Um."
Ahri stood up, slowly walked to Lu Yanzhi's side, and said, "You may not know how powerful you are now. So powerful that dual cultivation is something I benefit from."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanzhi picked up Ah Li without hesitation, his eyes instantly blazing with fire. "Then we can't waste any more time."
Ahri turned her head slightly to look at the area outside the courtyard where there were still people. "A very fierce battle has just taken place over there."
"That's because they're not as skilled," Lu Yanzhi said, carrying Ah Li back into the house.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yanzhi stopped at the crucial moment and asked, "Grand Palace Master, when will you be willing to marry me?"
Ahri's eyes were glazed over, she seemed unaware of the time, and she let out a soft, aggrieved hum, "Give it to me."
Seeing that Ah Li was about to bloom in her most beautiful form, Lu Yanzhi thought, "Fine, if she doesn't agree, she doesn't agree. It's the two of them who are suffering now."
One day, he will get Ahri to agree.
Lu Yanzhi flipped Ah Li over and then hugged her tightly from behind.
Ah Li felt as if fireworks were exploding in her mind. Lu Yanzhi was panting heavily, and said in a low, hoarse voice behind Ah Li, "Give me a child, Grand Palace Master."
Meanwhile, after the Second and Third Palace Masters escaped from the Heartless Palace in a sorry state, they stopped on a certain mountain peak.
The Third Palace Master closed his eyes and said, "All of us in the Heartless Palace are gone."
When the two of them returned to the Ruthless Palace, the Third Palace Master sent someone to contact the spies she had left in the Ruthless Palace in the past few months, wanting to know what the First Palace Master had been doing.
Why did so many changes occur in the Heartless Palace while they were away?
From the very beginning, when the Third Palace Master saw many unfamiliar faces in the Heartless Palace, especially since they were men, she felt uneasy.
She desperately wanted to find out the reason so that she could ensure her position would not be affected.
As a result, she disappeared without a trace, and even the women who came back with them were gone.
At this moment, the Second Palace Mistress was also somewhat lost in thought; she felt that things shouldn't be like this.
She was supposed to replace Leng Li as the Grand Palace Master of the Heartless Palace, but now she's like a stray dog, fleeing in a sorry state.
At that moment, a man appeared, carrying a medicine box on his back, and walked over from the other side.
This man was the one the original owner had saved before; he was a spy that someone wanted to plant in the Heartless Palace.
