Miraculously, even without a servant, the manor was spotless.
Xia Ji spent half a day familiarizing himself with the manor before entering his bedroom and spending the night there. Everything was normal.
Therefore, he took out the Cakravarti King’s mask from the Maitreya’s storage space and began to set up a ” transit station ” to enter the netherworld.
Then…
He crawled under the bed and entered the transit station.
The netherworld was extremely quiet and gloomy, but the strange corpse waterfall that he had seen that day was gone.
Xia Ji’s bones and flesh changed, and he returned to his original appearance. He quickly walked out of the ‘transfer station’ on the other side.
They arrived at the secret chamber of the palace.
He pushed open the door and released his divine sense. He slowly breathed a sigh of relief. There were no traces of war. The throne room in the distance was still holding the morning court as usual. He could vaguely hear Xia Xiaosu’s voice.
Thus, he went to the royal study and began to wait quietly. He casually flipped through the scrolls on the bookcase and the memorials on the table.
“You’re really meticulous.” He couldn’t help but praise.
An hour later.
The court retreated from afar.
Xia Xiaosu did not return immediately. She had arranged for a few officials to be in the side hall to give instructions. After everything was done, she heaved a sigh of relief and returned to the harem accompanied by four female attendants.
She had just walked to the arched door of the royal study when the expression of the leader of the four female attendants suddenly changed. She took a step forward and gave a look behind her.
The last two maids understood and hurriedly protected the Empress.
Only then did the female attendant and another person enter the courtyard one after another.
“How dare you trespass into the forbidden area of the Imperial Palace.”
Xia Ji was stunned. Then, he took out a black cloth from his storage space and covered his face. He said in a low voice, ‘”I’ll break through. How about it?”
With that, he stepped on the ground like a swallow flying. He pushed open the door and flew out, flying over a hundred feet.
The female attendant was shocked. What a fast movement technique.
Her reaction was extremely fast. With a raise of her hand, she had already gripped the long saber tightly. Before she could pull out the saber, a thought had already turned into a phantom and rose from her body.
As she leaned forward slightly, a black shadow with a blurry face was about to struggle free. The cicadas chirping in the midsummer also quieted down at this moment.
Although the other female attendant couldn’t show her shadow, her body was also surrounded by air currents. Her long hair moved without wind, and she was filled with an extraordinary aura.
“Empress, hand over your life!” Xia Ji roared.
He moved like lightning.
The female attendant became anxious, and the speed of her saber increased a little. The saber was already half a foot out.
Pa, pa, pa.
Two soft sounds.
The two female attendants cried out in surprise. They felt a violent impact from a gentle force on the back of their hands, and ripples spread out on the back of their hands.
Clang!
The knife that had only been used for 30% was instantly pressed back. The phantom and aura were instantly shattered.
However, shock appeared in the eyes of the two female attendants. How powerful was a person who could make them unable to draw their sabers from a distance of nearly a thousand feet?
However, they couldn’t help but reveal strange expressions. They were actually not injured at all. This masked man didn’t seem to have any ill intentions?
She turned around again.
The masked man had already pounced in front of the Queen and raised his hand to grab her.
Shua!
He missed.
Xia Xiaosu had disappeared from where she stood.
The Dipankara Dhyana between Xia Ji’s eyebrows, which could see through all nothingness, was activated instantly. His body moved like a bolt of lightning, and he appeared in a small pavilion 300 meters to the right amidst the exclamations of the women. He raised his hand and grabbed at the empty air in front of him.
With this grab, the empress, who was wrapped in a dragon robe, was directly grabbed out of the void.
At the same time, the sound of a trigger was heard.
The illusion shattered.
Xia Ji reached out and stroked Xia Xiaosu’s hair. Surrounding him were hundreds of Imperial Army soldiers with their crossbows aimed at him, solemn and filled with cold killing intent.
It’s alright, ” Xia Ji laughed in his original voice. ” But I can’t defend against experts. ‘
Xia Xiaosu’s originally calm eyes suddenly lit up. She reached out and hit the arm of the masked man in front of her like a spoiled child. Her expression was filled with surprise and relaxation that the Imperial Army and the maid had never seen before.
“All of you, leave.”
The Empress ‘voice regained its dignity.
The Imperial Army and the female attendants immediately knew that this was someone they knew. However, King Shenwu had disappeared for half a year, and they could not make the connection. With questions in their minds, they put away their crossbows, retreated, and disappeared.
Only King Shenwu and the Empress were left in the pavilion.
P.S. I’m begging for monthly votes again..
