Inside the empty main hall, the surroundings were silent, only time seemed like solidified air, slowly flowing.
After an unknown amount of time, a sound finally came from the high above.
It was only a short word, but it was filled with immense majesty from the heavens.
"Announce!"
This word carried a notion that allowed no rejection, heavily slamming onto the woman below.
Outside the palace gate, a fierce cold wind howled and swept in, stirring up the dust on the ground.
The black robe on Lu Xuan's body fluttered loudly, and he stood there quietly like a statue.
This feeling?
Lu Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the towering palace gate in front of him, his eyes full of fear and caution.
This was a feeling that even made him, a martial artist in the Divine Mansion Realm, feel frightened.
This was the first time since Lu Xuan began cultivating martial arts that he had the idea of immediately fleeing thousands of miles away.
Lu Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint purple light was projected from his pupils, as if he was considering something.
With his martial arts footwork at the level of ' zhi chi tian ya, a Chinese idiom describing being worlds apart despite being close', as long as he used it at the first moment.
Lu Xuan could transcend the constraints of the power of heaven and earth in the Divine Mansion Realm, stepping on the void as if it were solid ground.
With one step, he could cross thousands of mountains and rivers, instantly reaching thousands of miles away.
After this thought flashed through his mind, Lu Xuan's originally tense nerves also relaxed slightly.
The caution that lingered in his heart was finally suppressed by Lu Xuan.
Suddenly!
The palace gate in front of Lu Xuan slowly opened until the gate was fully open.
Inside the palace gate, besides the straight palace guards standing on both sides, wearing jet-black armor, there was no one else.
At this time, Mei Qingyu, who had been standing silently behind Lu Xuan, raised the corner of her mouth with a faint smile and said softly.
"Lord Lu, please!"
After stepping into the palace gate, the figures in front of Lu Xuan began to increase.
Inside the palace, the palaces were arranged in a well-organized manner, and almost every few hundred meters, there were dozens of palace guards standing neatly.
Among these palace guards, there were actually many martial artists in the Blood Refining Realm.
These Blood Refining Realm martial artists, who also had a lot of status in a prefecture, were only responsible for guarding the gate here in the palace.
Under the leadership of Mei Qingyu and others, Lu Xuan passed through a corridor of a palace.
Five or six figures suddenly appeared in front of them, standing side by side, with a leisurely posture, without any intention of giving way.
The eyes of these people were staring straight at Lu Xuan and the others.
Mei Qingyu's eyes changed abruptly, and the previously calm eyes flashed with an extremely fierce killing intent in an instant.
Although Mei Qingyu's terrifying killing intent was fleeting and extremely concealed, it could not hide from Lu Xuan's perception.
The corners of Lu Xuan's mouth raised slightly, revealing a knowing smile.
He thought to himself, it seems that someone is using these people to make trouble for him.
Because, the people who appeared in front of him were all men wearing the palace uniforms of the palace eunuchs.
The leading eunuch looked about thirty years old, wearing a dark red robe, the color as rich as a blooming rose.
The neckline and cuffs of the large red robe were embroidered with delicate dark patterns, shimmering in the sunlight.
The eunuch's skin exuded an unnatural femininity, with a pale luster, a thin face, hard lines, and sinister between his eyebrows.
He slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile that was not a smile, and opened his mouth with a strange tone.
"Oh, isn't this Lord Qingyu?"
"What's wrong, Lord Qingyu is not on duty in the Plum Blossom Hall, what are you doing here?"
"Are the people of your Plum Blossom Guard so idle?"
"This is really enviable for us eunuch surveillance department people!"
Hearing this, Mei Qingyu's face turned pale instantly, followed by a flush of extreme anger.
The killing intent in her eyes no longer concealed, spurted out, as if shrouded in a layer of ice-cold air.
"Wei Wuji, get out of here immediately, do you eunuch surveillance department people want to die?"
The eunuch named Wei Wuji not only did not retreat, but took a step forward.
He squinted his eyes slightly, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light, staring at Mei Qingyu, like an evil ghost choosing someone to devour.
The rancor contained in Wei Wuji's eyes seemed to indicate that there was an irreconcilable hatred between them, wishing to kill each other immediately.
The surrounding air also solidified due to their hateful confrontation, and the atmosphere was tense and about to break out.
Wei Wuji had always hated the people of the Plum Blossom Guard, especially Mei Qingyu, who was simply a thorn in his side and a fishbone in his throat in his eyes.
He couldn't wait to drink her blood and eat her flesh to relieve the hatred in his heart.
Since the appearance of these damned Plum Blossom Guards, the people of their eunuch surveillance department have fallen into the abyss.
When the late emperor was alive, the eunuch surveillance department firmly held most of the power in the palace.
But now, most of the power has been taken away by the Plum Blossom Guard.
Those affairs that were originally decided and the martial arts resources that were allocated by them have all fallen into the hands of the Plum Blossom Guard.
Then, the salary and treatment of the eunuch surveillance department naturally shrunk significantly.
The people of the eunuch surveillance department attribute all of this to the Plum Blossom Guard.
After all, they would never dare to blame the one who truly holds the power and makes the decisions, even if they had ten thousand guts.
Therefore, it must be easier to pinch persimmons, meaning to bully the weak, and the Plum Blossom Guard is the best candidate for them to vent their anger, none other than them.
Mei Qingyu happened to be the one who had a life-and-death feud with Wei Wuji.
That incident a few years ago almost cost him his life.
In the end, it was his ancestor, the chief管(总管: head eunuch) of the eunuch surveillance department, who saved his life.
"Hehehe..." Wei Wuji laughed strangely, his voice extremely shrill and creepy. His eyes were full of teasing, and he slowly looked over Mei Qingyu to her back.
"What's wrong, Mei Qingyu, what do you want to do? Could it be that you were encountered by something that should not be seen by A way for eunuchs to refer to themselves?"
As Wei Wuji spoke, he deliberately lengthened his tone, with a malicious expression on his face, as if he had caught something.
Then, he raised his right hand and pointed at Lu Xuan, and asked in a strange tone: "Who is the man behind you?"
As soon as Wei Wuji finished speaking, a subtle meaning flashed in his eyes, as if hiding some kind of calculation.
Today, he did not encounter Mei Qingyu by chance, but from the moment Mei Qingyu entered Tiandu, he had received the order from his ancestor.
The ancestor seemed to be very interested in this Lu Xuan with those few families, and asked him to test the Deputy Division Master of the Xuan Bird Guard, Lu Xuan.
Deputy Division Master of the Xuan Bird Guard?
What a young kid, looks like he's only in his twenties, but he's actually the Deputy Division Master of the Xuan Bird Guard.
Even his ancestor would have to take the initiative to greet such a big figure.
You must know that the position of Deputy Division Master of the Xuan Bird Guard has always been held by martial artists above the Outer Gang Grandmaster.
Could this kid, who hasn't even grown his hair yet, be the old monster of the Martial Dao Grandmaster?
Impossible!
This is absolutely impossible!
Unable to accept it at all, Wei Wuji really couldn't accept this sensational fact.
Wei Wuji's thoughts turned sharply, and the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and he couldn't help but frown tightly, as if he had tied a knot.
His eyes were like torches, scanning Lu Xuan up and down several times, trying to find something unusual from Lu Xuan.
Could it be that I saw the wrong person?
As soon as Wei Wuji said these words, a look of sudden realization flashed in Mei Qingyu's eyes.
She can serve as a fourth-rank Plum Blossom Guard in the depths of the palace, but she is not a stupid person.
So this damn eunuch is here to test Lord Lu.
"Bold!"
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!
"Wei Wuji, you want to die!"
"His Majesty has ordered to summon Xuan Bird Guard Deputy Division Master Lu Xuan into the palace, you eunuch dare to stop him!"
Mei Qingyu's willow eyebrows stood upside down, and a delicate shout was as loud as a thunderclap in the clear sky.
After the shout, accompanied by a sharp sound of sword鸣(剑鸣: sword singing), a dazzling cold light flashed.
I don't know when, Mei Qingyu's right hand was already holding a sharp sword.
The sword body shone with cold light, as if condensed with thousand-year-old ice, exuding a captivating chill.
At the same time, Mei Qingyu's aura suddenly changed, and the aura of the Inner Qi Minor Achievement Realm, like a burst of dam water, swept out from her body.
For a time, strong winds rose, blowing everyone's clothes to flutter.
"Humph!"
Seeing this, Wei Wuji looked calm and didn't take it to heart at all.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Wuji's aura instantly condensed, and he also burst out the aura of a martial artist in the Inner Qi Realm.
In an instant, an invisible force spread out with him as the center, and confronted Mei Qingyu's powerful aura.
Although Wei Wuji's aura of Inner Qi was slightly inferior to Mei Qingyu's, the gap was not particularly disparate.
"Mei Qingyu, don't forget, anyone who enters the depths of the inner palace, our eunuch surveillance department people are also qualified to question them."
"Don't think that your Plum Blossom Guard can cover the sky with one hand in the palace."
"As long as there are people from our eunuch surveillance department, it won't be your Plum Blossom Guard's turn!"
"You!"
Mei Qingyu simply couldn't believe what she heard, and stared at Wei Wuji with the eyes of a fool.
She thought that after she revealed Lu Xuan's identity, this Wei Wuji would be afraid and obediently give way.
But she never expected that this fool would still be so unaware of the danger.
He is just a small third-rank eunuch surveillance department. He usually relies on that old monster to bully others in the palace.
But Lu Xuan is the Deputy Division Master of the Xuan Bird Guard, what kind of identity is he? Wei Wuji still attempt to question him.
"Mei Qingyu, you better take out His Majesty's decree, otherwise, just obediently get out of the way for A way for eunuchs to refer to themselves."
" A way for eunuchs to refer to themselves really doesn't believe that this kid who hasn't even grown his hair yet will be the Deputy Division Master of the Xuan Bird Guard."
"Hehehe........"
"Could it be that this kid is a lover that you, Mei Qingyu, use to relieve boredom."
"Tsk tsk, Mei Qingyu, you are so bold, you dare to bring a strange man into the palace privately."
"After A way for eunuchs to refer to themselves reports to the ancestor, you and this strange man will wait for His Majesty to punish."
"According to the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty, this little beast's family will be executed!"
When Wei Wuji saw Mei Qingyu's face full of repressed, as if swallowing Coptis chinensis, the joy in his heart surging like a flood.
In an instant, he even vented his anger on Lu Xuan, forgetting the words that the ancestor had repeatedly told him to be cautious in his actions.
As soon as Wei Wuji's venomous words came out, it was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake.
The faces of everyone present changed instantly, and even the four people from the eunuch surveillance department behind him showed shock.
For a time, the scene was so quiet that it was almost eerie, silent, as if the air was frozen.
Only Wei Wuji was wantonly laughing wildly, and the laughter seemed particularly abrupt in this silence.
He still did not notice the unusual atmosphere around him, immersed in his own emotions.
Too bad!
This damn waste!
A成事不足，败事有余(成事不足，败事有余: spoil things) fool!
In the hidden corner of the deep corridor of the palace, an old man was hiding in it.
His figure was almost integrated with the darkness, unless he deliberately looked for it at close range, no one would find his existence.
But in the next second, the old man seemed to have noticed something, and his originally squinted old eyes widened instantly, looking at Lu Xuan not far away with disbelief.
I saw the space around Lu Xuan, like a calm lake being thrown into a boulder, actually began to slowly rippling layers of strange fluctuations, one circle after another, spreading outward.
This damn thing!
In Lu Xuan's eyes, the mysterious purple light projected out dazzlingly, like two burning purple stars, but they were so cold that they did not have a trace of human temperature.
He stared at everyone standing in front of him, the gaze seemed to come from the hell, with the chill of obliteration everything.
Everyone present only felt an invisible pressure of heaven and earth, overwhelming and collapsing, making their legs weak and their breathing extremely difficult.
At this moment, even the most钝(迟钝: dull) person can clearly feel Lu Xuan's terrible.
The anger radiating by Lu Xuan was almost materialized, gloomy that made people horrified.
"Lord Lu........."
Mei Qingyu didn't know when, had already quietly turned around, her face was terribly pale, without any blood, her lips trembled slightly, with full of panic and anxiety.
That Wei Wuji is a person from eunuch surveillance department. If he is attacked without authorization, the consequences will be unimaginable.
However, Mei Qingyu's words were not completely spoken, the Wei Wuji on the opposite side encountered something terrible.
In an instant, his eyes were full of fear and despair, and then, a miserable scream sounded.
Wei Wuji's originally feminine face revealing weird began to split rapidly, with blood flowing straight down.
In just one breath, his body could not bear this destructive force.
In front of everyone, it burst open with a bang, turning into a thick and gorgeous blood mist.
Blood mist permeated the air, the pungent smell of blood instantly filling the surroundings, making one want to retch.
The old man, who had been hiding in the shadows of the corner, suddenly appeared before everyone.
"Stop!"
The old man's face was filled with astonishment. He really couldn't believe that Lu Xuan would be so decisive and ruthless.
