Ji Tianxing had left the palace, but he did not leave the imperial city.
He used a few tricks to change his appearance and hide in a hidden house.
The Sage Master sent out more than twenty experts to search for him in the city, but they found nothing.
That night, at three o 'clock in the morning.
It was the darkest moment before dawn, and also the quietest time of the day.
But for some reason, the lights in the palace suddenly lit up, and there was a deafening sound.
The muffled sound was like muffled thunder echoing in the night sky, spreading throughout the entire imperial city.
All kinds of colorful magical brilliance emerged in the palace, illuminating the night sky like fireworks.
Waves of violent shock waves spread out like ripples, hitting the various palaces and high walls of the palace.
Occasionally, there would be a muffled explosion deep underground, shaking half of the city as if there was an earthquake.
There was no doubt that there were experts fighting fiercely in the palace.
In a short span of a hundred breaths, there were seven or eight places where soul-stirring battles broke out.
The dazzling magic lights and the Primordial Spirit Dharma Idol shrouded the entire palace, and it could be seen clearly from a hundred miles away.
Not long after, the dozen or so defensive formations that shrouded the palace were all activated.
Tens of thousands of imperial guards shouted and supported the defensive formations with all their strength.
Suddenly, the entire palace was in chaos.
The commoners around the palace were also awakened by the huge commotion of the battle.
Countless people opened their doors and windows and looked in the direction of the palace, revealing a look of surprise and horror.
Many people did not know what was going on, and they shouted anxiously and discussed this matter with each other.
In the center of the city, in a hidden and old house.
There was a two-hundred-foot-tall pagoda in the courtyard. It was covered in dust and was a little shabby because no one cleaned and repaired it for many years.
At this moment, Ji Tianxing was standing at the top of the pagoda, looking in the direction of the palace expressionlessly.
He stood quietly, his body straight, and his figure seemed to be one with the night.
The night wind blew, and his long hair fluttered. There was a faint sneer in his deep eyes.
Half an hour later, the fighting in the Imperial Palace finally ceased.
The brilliance of the spell that illuminated the night sky dissipated, and so did the loud, dull sound.
When dawn arrived and the first glimmer of light appeared on the horizon, the Imperial Palace regained its tranquility, and the defensive formation was temporarily shut down.
Ji Tianxing left the top of the pagoda and returned to the old house.
He sat in the study and waited quietly for a quarter of an hour.
Zhi Bai, who was dressed in a black robe, appeared in the study room like a phantom. He respectfully bowed to him and reported the news.
"Reporting to Master, this subordinate has already found out the news."
"Speak." Ji Tianxing nodded.
Zhi Bai cupped his hands and reported, "Just last night, the news of you giving the Sword of Burial Of Heaven to Great Emperor Chu Yun has spread throughout the city.
Many hidden forces in the city used all kinds of methods to spread the news.
In the wee hours of the morning, more than ten groups of experts broke into the Imperial Palace to gather information and attempt to snatch the Sword of Burial Of Heaven.
But those experts were discovered by the Imperial Palace guards, and a great battle broke out. "
Ji Tianxing had already expected this result, and was not surprised at all. He asked, "Did you find out the identity of those groups of people? What is the situation in the Imperial Palace? "
Zhi Bai reported expressionlessly, "Some of the groups of experts followed us to Heavenly Cloud City and belong to the various empires.
There were also several groups of experts who seemed to be the top forces of the Chu Yun Empire, but they hid their identities.
Although those groups of people were killed or repulsed, the Imperial Palace suffered heavy losses. The number of casualties among the Imperial Palace guards is more than five thousand … "
Zhi Bai's report was concise, but it was all essential and important.
With just a few words, Ji Tianxing understood the situation in the Imperial Palace.
After listening, he nodded slightly and said, "This is just the beginning, the best is yet to come.
Zhi Bai, continue to keep an eye on the Imperial Palace and secretly gather information. "
"This subordinate obeys!" Zhi Bai cupped his hands and bowed. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Master, this subordinate has a question, I don't know if I should ask?"
Ji Tianxing raised an eyebrow. "Speak."
Zhi Bai asked cautiously through telepathy, "Master, the Heaven-Burier Sword you gave to Great Emperor Chu Yun should be fake, right?"
This question had been hidden in his heart all night.
He still couldn't believe that his master would give away the real Sword of Burial Of Heaven.
Ji Tianxing's lips curled into a smile, and he said in a playful tone, "You're not too stupid. You barely qualify to be my follower."
Such a reluctant praise, but it made Zhi Bai's eyes shine with pride and excitement.
"Master is too kind."
"Go." Ji Tianxing said no more, and waved his hand, indicating that he should leave.
Zhi Bai bowed and left, continuing to gather information in the Imperial City and secretly monitor the Imperial Palace's movements.
......
Over the next few days, Heavenly Cloud City was filled with noise and chaos.
There were many rumors circulating in the city, causing panic among the people.
It was said that someone saw Ji Tianxing return with their own eyes.
Moreover, he presented a black sword to the Chu Yun Emperor outside the gates of the Imperial Palace.
That night, a large number of mysterious experts secretly infiltrated the Imperial Palace and fought fiercely with the palace guards.
Early the next morning, the entire Imperial City entered a state of martial law.
A hundred thousand palace guards and hundreds of thousands of city guards were fully armed to the teeth to protect the Imperial City and the Imperial Palace.
Even the streets and alleys of the Imperial City were patrolled by groups of guards, searching for suspicious people.
Every night, there was a great battle inside and outside the Imperial Palace.
The earth-shattering noise and the dazzling brilliance of spells always woke up all the warriors and civilians in the city.
The Imperial City was filled with a somber and oppressive atmosphere, and everyone's heart was shrouded in a layer of haze.
The gates of the Imperial City were tightly shut, forbidding the people from entering or leaving.
Everyone could only stay in their homes, and even during the day they didn't dare to go out at will.
No one knew why the most prosperous and prosperous Imperial City had become like this.
No one knew how long such a dangerous situation would last before it ended.
Over the past few days, Ji Tianxing had been hiding in the old house and had not gone out at all.
He kept a close eye on the Imperial Palace, and listened to Zhi Bai's reports every day.
As time passed, the Imperial Palace's situation grew worse.
Every day, hundreds of battles broke out in the city, and at least thousands of city guards and guards were killed.
More and more mysterious experts secretly infiltrated the Imperial City, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Among these mysterious experts were not only members of the Imperial Family, but also experts from the top powers of each country.
Even the top powers of the Chu Yun Empire sent large groups of experts to quietly infiltrate the Imperial City.
Heavenly Cloud City became more chaotic and dangerous.
