Mysterious Stone Palace. From the looks of it, he could only think of a way to go to the Mysterious Stone Palace. However, according to the young man, if he wanted to enter the Mysterious Stone Palace, he needed a token. This token was passed down from generation to generation in the City Lord Mansion. Only the current City Lord had it.
Only the current City Lord had it. In other words, if he wanted to enter the Mysterious Stone Palace, he could only meet the City Lord.
Lying in a pool of blood, the young man's breath was extremely weak. He had asked all the questions he needed. Xiao Chen looked at him and said indifferently, "Let me send you on your way, so that you won't have to suffer anymore."
After saying that, Xiao Chen pierced the young man's chest with a pair of scissors.
After killing the young man without hesitation, Xiao Chen sat on the chair again. Tian Yue was not dissatisfied with Xiao Chen's actions. Although she was inexperienced, she was not a soft-hearted person. Previously, she was only panicking because she suddenly lost her cultivation.
Killing people was a common thing for Xiao Chen and Tian Yue. Therefore, even if they lost their cultivation, killing a few people did not affect them at all.
Seeing that Xiao Chen was deep in thought, Tian Yue said softly, "What do you think the Sky Emperor Old Ancestor wants to test by setting up the Ninth Heaven? What is his purpose? "
She already knew that the answer was in the Mysterious Stone Palace. However, Tian Yue did not understand why the Sky Emperor set up the Ninth Heaven.
Hearing Tian Yue's words, Xiao Chen said softly, "I think I understand."
"You understand? Then tell me quickly. "Tian Yue asked anxiously.
"It's simple. The Sky Emperor set up the Ninth Heaven to tell the future generations that the strong warriors are not only because of their cultivation. Even if they lose their cultivation one day, they should still be strong. Cultivation is the embodiment of a warrior's strength but it is not the foundation of a warrior's strength. As long as they have the intention, they can recover their lost cultivation one day."
"This is also why the Sky Emperor set up the Nine Heaven City and sealed everyone's cultivation. He also arranged for a City Lord Mansion. Think about it, if one suddenly loses his cultivation and has to face the pursuit of the City Lord Mansion, what would happen to a person who is not strong?"
"It's here." Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Tian Yue said in a deep voice.
Tian Yue finally understood after Xiao Chen's explanation. That's right, wasn't it just like her? When she first arrived at the Nine Heavens City, she suddenly lost her cultivation. Tian Yue really panicked at that time. Then, she was captured and brought to the City Lord Mansion without any resistance. Think about it, if Xiao Chen was not here, what would have happened to her? She would definitely be trapped in the Nine Heavens City until her death.
There was still some lingering fear in her heart, but she was also glad that Xiao Chen was by her side this time.
..........................................
......... What do you mean? "Tian Yue asked doubtfully.
Naturally, they were going to take action against the City Lord. Now that Xiao Chen had rescued Tian Yue, according to Xiao Chen's original plan, they only needed to rescue Tian Yue tonight and it would be considered a success. But now, Xiao Chen changed his mind.
Since the young man was killed by him, the City Lord would definitely find out tomorrow at the latest. In this way, the guards of the City Lord Mansion would be strengthened greatly. At that time, it would be difficult to sneak into the City Lord Mansion.
Therefore, Xiao Chen decided to take the opportunity to take action tonight. He would find the token to enter the mysterious stone hall in the City Lord Mansion and pass through the last layer of the Sky Above Heavens.
He explained his plan to Tian Yue. Tian Yue had no objections. Then, the two of them packed up and walked towards the City Lord's room.
Along the way, they naturally encountered the patrolling guards. As soon as they walked out of the young man's small courtyard, Xiao Chen and Tian Yue were stopped.
"Hey, isn't this the newcomer? Where are you bringing him? "The leader of the guards looked at Tian Yue suspiciously. Then, he looked at Xiao Chen and questioned him coldly.
Xiao Chen had already thought of an excuse. In the face of the guard's question, he respectfully said in his heart, "The City Lord wants to see this newcomer. I am following his orders."
After hearing Xiao Chen's words, the guard's expression eased a little. Since the City Lord wanted to see the newcomer, there was naturally no problem.
Moreover, Xiao Chen's words were perfect. After all, if Xiao Chen was here to save Tian Yue, there was no reason for him to go straight to the City Lord's room. Wouldn't that be walking right into a trap? Therefore, after confirming that Xiao Chen and Tian Yue were really going to the City Lord's room, the group of guards did not think too much about it. However, the leader was a little more cautious. He immediately ordered two of his subordinates to accompany Xiao Chen to the City Lord's room.
He thought that he was smart, but he did not know that Xiao Chen's heart was blooming with joy when he heard the leader's words. He was going to the City Lord's room anyway. Now that he had two guards accompanying him, he would be very safe along the way. Even if he met other guards, he would not have to worry.
He readily agreed to the leader's request. When the leader saw this, the doubts in his heart lessened. Then, he led his men and left.
With the two guards accompanying him, they arrived at the City Lord's room without any problems. The two guards did not enter the courtyard. On the other hand, Xiao Chen brought Tian Yue and swaggered into the courtyard.
It was already late at night, but the lights in the study room were still on. It was apparent that the City Lord was not asleep yet. There were also two guards guarding the door.
As they walked into the study room, Xiao Chen whispered to Tian Yue. "One each. Quickly get rid of these two."
After hearing Xiao Chen's words, Tian Yue nodded. Soon, the two of them arrived outside the study room. Seeing the two of them approaching, one of the guards stopped them and asked.
"Hold it. What's the matter?"
"Sir, I …" Xiao Chen bowed. But before he finished his sentence, a cold glint flashed. Then, a dagger directly pierced the guard's heart. At the same time, Tian Yue had also successfully launched a sneak attack and killed the other guard.
The two guards outside the door were easily killed. Xiao Chen pushed the door open and strode in.
In the room, the City Lord was looking at the materials in his hand. But at this moment, the door was suddenly opened. He lifted his head and saw an unfamiliar young man walking in. The City Lord's eyes were filled with doubts. On the other hand, Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"City Lord, it's not easy to find you here. Along the way, there were so many twists and turns. It was like a maze. But I've finally found you. There are some things that I think we can talk about face to face."
