Xiao Luo glared at her fiercely. The palace maid trembled and lowered her head timidly.
He coughed a few times and asked seriously, "Do you know where the Queen of the Baiyue Nation lives?"
The palace maid was stunned. She raised her head and stared at Xiao Luo with her clear eyes.
"What are you looking at? I asked you a question. Do you know where the Queen of the Baiyue Nation lives?" Xiao Luo was really impatient this time. He realized that the palace maid's reaction time was slower than a normal person's.
The palace maid nodded her head heavily.
Xiao Luo asked suspiciously, "You … Can't you speak?"
The palace maid blinked and put on an innocent expression. Then she nodded and smiled.
So she was a mute?!
Xiao Luo frowned. Looking at this petite and cute palace maid, he felt like he was bullying her.
He calmed his tone and said, "Lead the way."
The palace maid showed a confused expression and looked at Xiao Luo with a slow look.
Xiao Luo let out a long breath and said, "Take me to the Queen of the Baiyue Nation. Do you understand now?"
The palace maid nodded, then turned and walked in one direction. She became Xiao Luo's guide.
Xiao Luo was relieved when he saw that she was not walking toward the palace where the Martial Venerable was. He was sure that the Queen of the Baiyue Nation and the Martial Venerable were not the same person. That made things easier. He just had to find the Queen of the Baiyue Nation and make her cry. Then he could get the tear easily.
The palace of the Baiyue Nation was as complicated as the Forbidden City in the Original World. There were countless buildings and deep alleys. It was easy to get lost walking around here.
Xiao Luo followed behind the palace maid, looking around vigilantly. From time to time, his nose could smell the fragrance wafting from the palace maid's body. When they encountered patrolling guards, Xiao Luo directly took the palace maid into the air to avoid the patrolling guards' detection. After the patrolling guards left, they landed back on the ground.
There were waves of patrolling guards in the palace. Xiao Luo was getting impatient. He said to the mute palace maid, "Which palace does the Queen of the Baiyue Nation live in? Just point it out to me."
They were on the top floor of a building. They had a panoramic view of half of the palace.
The mute palace maid nodded and looked around with her clear eyes. Finally, she fixed her eyes on a building not far away. She smiled at Xiao Luo and pointed at it.
Xiao Luo picked her up by the waist with one hand and flew over like lightning. They landed on the roof of the building without making a sound. They found that it was not a palace, but a gate that led to the outside world.
"Does the Queen of the Baiyue Nation live in this gate?" Xiao Luo asked coldly.
The mute palace maid smiled apologetically. She took out a piece of paper and a charcoal pencil, wrote a few words, and showed them to Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo saw a line of neat and beautiful words written on the paper. "There are too many buildings in the palace, and they all look alike. I made a mistake."
She made a mistake?
Xiao Luo's first reaction was that the mute palace maid was lying. But on second thought, the palace of the Baiyue Nation was indeed huge. There were many buildings, and it was dark at night. It was normal for her to make a mistake. Moreover, she was just a palace maid. She had never seen the palace from a high altitude. Therefore, it was much more difficult to identify the Queen's palace.
"Take a closer look. Don't make a mistake again!"
The mute palace maid nodded. Her clear eyes carefully looked around. Sometimes her brows were tightly knitted, and sometimes they were relaxed. Sometimes she tilted her head and fell into deep thought. Sometimes her eyes lit up as if they were suddenly enlightened. After a long time, she pointed at a building.
Xiao Luo did not waste any time. He picked her up and flew toward the building.
When he landed on the roof of the building, he realized that it was actually a martial arts training ground. At this moment, there was a woman with a rather sturdy body training herself inside. She was bare-chested and had a bit of manliness about her.
Xiao Luo rolled his eyes and said to the mute palace maid, "You made a mistake again. Am I right?"
The mute palace maid looked apologetic. She wrote with a charcoal pencil and bowed sincerely to Xiao Luo. "I'm sorry!"
Xiao Luo had a look of disdain on his face as he looked away. He felt that it was a big mistake to ask such a mute maid to find the whereabouts of the Queen of the Baiyue Nation. She was too unreliable.
"Let's go back to the ground. I know the way to the Queen's palace. I won't make a mistake this time," the mute palace maid wrote on a rice paper and showed it to Xiao Luo.
Was it because she had never seen the palace from a high altitude that she could not recognize the building as the Queen's palace?
Xiao Luo was skeptical. After thinking for a while, he chose to believe the mute palace maid again.
He pretended to be cruel and warned her, "If you make a mistake again, I will kill you. Do you understand?"
The mute palace maid was stunned with her mouth slightly open. Then she smiled and nodded. Her smile was pure and lovely, as if it had the magic to make people forget their troubles.
She was not afraid of him at all.
Xiao Luo felt that his performance was a failure. Otherwise, the mute palace maid would not be so relaxed and calm. Was his performance not good enough?
After landing on the ground, the mute palace maid looked around and smiled to indicate that Xiao Luo was in the northeast.
"Since you know where it is, lead the way. Don't smile at me," Xiao Luo warned her coldly.
The mute palace maid smiled and nodded. She led the way again.
This time, she seemed to be leading the right way. It was a building located in the northeast of the palace. It was called the Funing Palace. There were many guards guarding the place. Judging from their energy, they were all masters of the Martial Spirit Realm. The guards leading the team were warriors of the Martial Lord Realm.
It seemed that this was the place!
Xiao Luo led the mute palace maid over the high wall. They avoided the eyes and ears of the guards and broke into the Funing Palace. There was a Xuan room in the palace, with a painting of a Kylin. The air was filled with the smell of red sandalwood.
The inner pillars of the palace were supported by many giant red pillars. Each pillar was carved with a circling phoenix spreading its wings. It was a spectacular sight.
The ceiling of the palace was made of sandalwood. The crystal walls were made of jade, the curtains were made of pearls, and the pillars were made of gold. Beside the six-foot-wide bed made of agarwood hung a silk curtain. The curtain was embroidered with begonia flowers with pearls and silver thread. When the wind blew, the curtain swayed.
