For the rest of the night, Cloud Spirit Palace was in chaos.
Almost all the guards in the palace were out, looking for Ji Tianxing's whereabouts.
The gates of Cloud Spirit Palace were closed, and all the exits were guarded by strong cultivators.
With such tight security, not even a fly could fly out of Cloud Spirit Palace.
It was almost impossible for Ji Tianxing to escape from Cloud Spirit Palace!
Everyone in Cloud Spirit Palace was in a state of panic. Countless disciples and servants of the Yun family knew that Ji Tianxing had tried to assassinate the Mistress and injured the Patriarch.
In just one night, Ji Tianxing went from being the Crown Prince of the Yun family and the future son-in-law of the Yun family to being Cloud Spirit Palace's mortal enemy.
Not only was the Yun Family dumbfounded by such a shocking turn of events, even the guests who had arrived at Cloud Spirit Palace ahead of time were shocked beyond words.
Yun Luo had been secretly observing the situation, paying attention to the situation in Cloud Spirit Palace and the movements of the guards.
At first, she had some doubts. She could not believe that Ji Tianxing had really injured Yun Zhongqi and completely cut ties with the Yun family.
However, after half a night of observation, she was completely sure of this matter and no longer had any doubts.
Therefore, she used a secret communication technique that she had not used for many years and sent the news out of Cloud Spirit Palace.
At dawn, the sky was just starting to turn white.
In Autumn Wind City, thousands of miles away from Cloud Spirit Palace, a house in the south of the city was still sleeping peacefully in the morning fog.
In a secret room in the depths of the house, Duanmu Huang was sitting on a large chair with his eyes closed, quietly waiting for something.
At this moment, Xing Jian, the head of the Soul Husbandry Sect, pushed open the stone door of the secret room and quickly walked in.
"Patriarch, Luo sent a message."
Xing Jian bowed respectfully and held a palm-sized jade Spiritual Slip in front of Duanmu Huang.
This jade Spiritual Slip was a special Dharma Artifact used to transmit important messages. It could be sent thousands of miles away in half an hour.
This item was called a Communication Jade Slip. It was priceless and very precious.
In the Central Continent, only the imperial courts and the top aristocratic families had the qualifications and financial resources to use communication jade slips to transmit messages.
Duanmu Huang, who was resting with his eyes closed, immediately opened his eyes when he heard Xing Jian's words. His eyes were filled with anticipation.
"You've come just in time. I've been waiting for a long time!"
Duanmu Huang smiled and quickly reached out to receive the communication jade slip. He used his Spiritual Energy to cast a secret technique and read the message in the jade slip.
A moment later, he finished reading Yun Luo's message and immediately revealed an excited expression.
"Ji Tianxing's crime has been confirmed, and he won't be able to clear his name even if he jumps into the East Sea.
Cloud Spirit Palace had fallen into chaos, and Yun Zhongqi had been severely injured … This was great!
That's great! My plan has finally succeeded! Hahahaha … "
Duanmu Huang laughed excitedly. His tone was full of pride.
Xing Jian also revealed a trace of a smile and hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed: "Congratulations Patriarch, congratulations Patriarch!
May I ask what we should do next, Patriarch? "
Duanmu Huang's emotions calmed down. He held the communication jade slip in his hand and said in a cold voice: "Hmph, what else can we do? Of course, we'll take advantage of his weakness and kill him. We'll completely destroy the Yun Family!
I've already placed a spy in Cloud Spirit Palace and prepared everything.
I'll now send a message to Luo and have her meet with the spy. The spy will then give her the 'Soul Reaping Bell'. "
"Soul Reaping Bell?" Xing Jian's pupils constricted, and a shocked expression appeared on his face.
"Patriarch, are you talking about the precious treasure of the Yin Hun Clan that we took 12 years ago when we destroyed them?"
Duanmu Huang nodded with a cold smile on his face: "That's right! The Soul Reaping Bell is a magic treasure that specializes in restraining Spiritual Energy. It's very powerful and very insidious.
With Luo's status, she should be able to smoothly approach Yun Zhongqi.
Yun Zhongqi was severely injured, and his strength had greatly decreased. He was at his weakest.
As long as Luo catches him off guard, she can use the power of the Soul Reaping Bell to kill Yun Zhongqi on the spot!
Even if she can't kill Yun Zhongqi, she can still severely injure Yun Zhongqi's Spiritual Energy and cause his strength to greatly decrease.
Once the Spiritual Energy is severely injured, it will take hundreds of years for it to recover!
At that time, won't Yun Zhongqi be at my mercy? Hahahaha … "
After hearing Duanmu Huang's words, Xing Jian revealed a look of anticipation and smirked.
… …
Inside Cloud Spirit Palace.
In the southeast corner, there was a beautiful garden. The trees in the garden were lush, and the fragrance was pleasant.
It was early in the morning, and the garden was silent. No one was walking around.
Cloud Spirit Palace had been in chaos last night, and the atmosphere was still oppressive and somber. Who would be in the mood to enjoy the scenery in the garden?
However, on a small path in the depths of the garden, there was a middle-aged servant in gray linen clothes sweeping the fallen leaves with a broom.
The middle-aged servant bent over and swept the floor. His movements were calm and steady, neither fast nor slow.
His seemingly ordinary, turbid eyes would occasionally flash with a wisp of light.
At this moment, a tall and thin servant girl appeared on the small path.
She carried a box of food in her hand and walked calmly through the small path. She was about to pass through the garden and rush to the kitchen.
This person was Yun Luo.
She expressionlessly walked towards the middle-aged servant. She didn't look at the servant, nor did she talk to him.
However, when she passed by the middle-aged servant, the servant seemed to casually wave the broom, but his wide sleeve swept across her sleeve.
Silently, two items fell into Yun Luo's hands.
A communication jade slip made of white jade, and a black bell the size of a wine cup.
This simple black bell exuded a mysterious and cold aura. It was the magic treasure, Soul Reaping Bell.
Yun Luo flipped her hand and put away the two items. She continued to walk forward.
During the entire process, the two didn't say a word. They didn't even make eye contact.
No one would have thought that these two seemingly unrelated people had some kind of connection.
… …
Half an hour later, Yun Luo carried the box of food to the entrance of Cloud Spirit Palace.
Cloud Spirit Palace was the most sacred and dignified palace in Cloud Spirit Palace. It was also the palace of the Patriarch, Yun Zhongqi.
There were more than ten guards guarding the entrance. Among them, there were two Sky Origin Stage guard commanders.
One of the commanders stopped Yun Luo and expressionlessly asked her why she had come.
Yun Luo calmly bowed and explained, "Mistress ordered me to go to the kitchen and bring breakfast and elixirs to the Patriarch."
The guard commander did his job and carefully checked the box of food. After confirming that there was no problem, he let her go.
Yun Luo carried the box of food into Cloud Spirit Palace. She calmly went up to the second floor and walked towards Yun Zhongqi's room.
When she walked out of the room and saw that there was no one around, she took out a mask and put it on her face.
In the blink of an eye, she changed her face into Ji Tianxing's. Her figure also changed slightly. Her appearance was exactly the same as Ji Tianxing's.
She pushed open the door and quietly entered the room.
She saw that Yun Zhongqi was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed. He was concentrating on healing his injuries. It seemed that he didn't notice her arrival.
Seeing this, a cold killing intent flashed in Yun Luo's eyes.
"Yun Zhongqi, your time of death has come!"
