When everything was ready, Gong Mingyue, Gong Minglan, and Gong Mingxue left the island with Shirō Makino, Lin Zijin, and Chae Yi.
Along the way, Gong Mingyue asked Chae Yi what she was good at.
After reaching the Emperor Realm, there was no clear distinction between the different professions, but there were still some areas that she was good at.
For example, some were good at defense, some were good at using knives, some were good at using swords, and some were good at using swords. There was also the Emperor Realm archer like Shan Gu.
"My profession is an assassin." Chae Yi smiled. "But I'm good at makeup."
"Makeup?" Gong Mingyue looked at Chae Yi and thought, Who doesn't know how to do that?
"Uh …" Chae Yi thought about it seriously and nodded. "Yes!"
Gong Mingyue wanted to say, Even if you're good at makeup, it's useless in the Gong Castle.
Anyway, no one knows you, and your face is not real.
However, seeing that Shirō Makino didn't say anything, she put aside her doubts and continued to lead the group to the Gong Castle.
After setting off, Shirō Makino, Lin Zijin, and Chae Yi finally understood why Gong Mingyue said that even if something happened in the small world on the island, the Gong Castle wouldn't receive any news for a while. It turned out that the small world was still a long way from the real Gong Castle.
She was more worried about Gong Changfeng, who was the eldest son of the Gong Family, breaking his Soul Lamp would alert the Gong Family and cause them to send people to investigate.
"If that's the case, it will be terrible."
"Don't worry. That won't happen. His Soul Lamp is fine. "Xiao Bai didn't explain much about this.
The group of six walked along the ancient road for more than ten days and finally arrived at the real Gong Castle.
Looking from afar, a group of majestic ancient castles came into view!
The real Gong Castle wasn't a small world. It stood openly under the dusky sky of the Heavenly River World.
The whole group of castles was mainly gray, and under the dusky sky, it looked especially gloomy, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"Why didn't the Gong Castle be built in a small world? You have such powerful ancestors, so it should be easy for you to build the Gong Castle there, right? "Chae Yi was curious.
Gong Mingyue said softly, "Our ancestors thought that the Gong Castle should be built on the banks of the Heavenly River. You have to remember what your mission is at all times. As long as the living beings in the Heavenly River are not completely wiped out, the Gong Family Fortress will stay here and never leave! "
When Mingyue said Mingyue said Mingyue, Lin Zijin, and Chae Yi was Said Mingyue.
This was a little different from the legendary Gong Family Fort, which was known to be arrogant, domineering, and reckless.
Was Mingyue's? and Mingyue Was Mingyue's? and Mingyue, the ancestors were great great great great.
..... but a a's Mingyue, and Mingyue. was the Mingyue was, and the was was. and was was in the was was was was was was, and was was was, and was was was was was was. Living in such a dark place all year round and having to face bloody and cruel battles every day, many people's temperaments had changed greatly. At first, the ancestors tried to interfere, but gradually, they were annoyed. Even if they were cruel enough to kill some people, some people would become like them. In recent years, some people have become more and more unscrupulous. We hoped that the ancestors would intervene, but we never got any response. "
Gong Mingyue said, "Many people are even guessing that the ancestors have …"
"Watch your words!" Gong Mingyue looked at her and interrupted her.
Gong Mingyue stuck out her tongue and looked at the group of castles. "Let's go in."
"Wait …" Gong Mingyue looked at Shirō Makino seriously. "Young master, it is easy to enter the Gong Castle, but it is difficult to leave. Have you thought about how we will leave once we succeed?"
Shirō Makino looked at her and asked, "Will the young master of the Gong Family be interrogated?"
"This … Normally, they won't be, but the problem is that we don't have anyone of that status to help us," Gong Mingyue said with a bitter smile. "We can only rely on ourselves."
"As long as the young master of the Gong Family can bring people out, there won't be a problem," Shirō Makino said.
Chae Yi smiled but didn't say anything.
Gong Mingyue frowned slightly. She couldn't understand.
"Alright, you don't have to worry about this. As long as you aren't afraid, we will succeed in bringing people out!" Shirō Makino said confidently.
"Our lives were saved by you, young master. Now that we have taken our revenge, there is nothing to be afraid of." Gong Mingyue smiled and looked at Shirō Makino. "Since you have made arrangements, let's go in!"
"Is it alright to go in like this?" Lin Zijin asked.
"It's fine. The Gong Castle has always been easy to enter, but difficult to leave. We won't be stopped once we enter," Gong Mingyue said.
Shirō Makino nodded. "Then let's go in."
The six of them entered through a side door. The guards at the door didn't even look at them.
Gong Mingyue and her sisters brought Shirō Makino and his companions into the Gong Castle. On the way, they met some people from the Gong Castle, but they all ignored each other.
When they passed by, no one gave Shirō Makino and his companions a second glance.
Gong Mingyue brought them to her courtyard, closed the door, and activated the array. Then, she sighed and patted her chest.
She said, "I'm so nervous!"
Shirō Makino gave her a thumbs up. "Lady Mingyue's mental fortitude is already very good!"
Gong Mingyue smiled. "Although we aren't the direct descendants of the Gong Castle, we still have some status. In the past, we often …"
Speaking up to this point, she hesitated for a moment before looking at Bai Muye and saying in a low voice, "She often brings in people that the young masters want. The guards know what's going on, so they don't stop her at all."
Gong Mingyue looked at Shirō Makino cautiously. "Young master, you won't blame us for what we did in the past, right?"
Chae Yi said, "You didn't mean to do those things. Besides, you didn't do anything else. If you didn't bring them, you would've been unlucky. Someone else would've done it anyway. That's why we understand and don't blame you. "
Gong Mingxue said bitterly from the side, "We also tried to secretly let people escape, but … not only did they fail to escape, they were all caught in the end. Even we were punished. Even now, we still have the imprint of those Dao scars that can't be removed. "
Gong Mingyue looked at her and said, "Little Xue, let's not talk about this. It's all in the past."
Gong Mingxue nodded.
Then, Gong Mingyue looked at Shirō Makino and said, "Young master, now that we've completed the first step, we'll begin the second step. Although the area where the master is located isn't strictly guarded, it's still not easy to enter. That's why I thought of a way, but I might have to trouble you a little … "
Shirō Makino looked at her and asked, "What is it?"
"Young master, you can pretend to be my servant and enter with me. That's the only way to avoid suspicion, "said Gong Mingyue.
"That's not a problem, but Mingyue, I want to know what my father is doing." Shirō Makino asked.
Gong Mingyue hesitated for a moment, then said, "Hard labor."
Gong Mingyue looked at Shirō Makino and said, "Every day, a large number of Heavenly River creatures are transported into the Gong Castle. Those Heavenly River creatures can either be eaten as food or have all kinds of top-grade materials that can be used. Someone has to do these things, and that's what your father has been doing all this time. "
Shirō Makino fell silent. It was hard to imagine that his father, who was a direct descendant of the Bai family in the Zulong Empire, was a hard worker in the Gong Castle. Moreover, it was a hard worker with no freedom.
Saying that he was a hard worker was an exaggeration.
To put it bluntly, he was a slave of the Gong Castle.
Shirō Makino took a deep breath and said, "I understand. Let's go now!"
Gong Mingyue looked at Shirō Makino and said, "Young master, are you sure … there's a way to get out?"
"As long as the direct descendant of the Gong Castle can bring people out, there won't be a problem!" Shirō Makino said seriously.
But we don't have any direct descendant to cooperate with us!
Gong Mingyue was a little anxious, but seeing Shirō Makino's confident expression, she could only half-believe him.
She looked at Lin Zijin and Chae Yi and said, "Miss Lin and Chae Yi, please wait here for a while. Once we bring your father back, we'll think of a way to save your father."
Lin Zijin couldn't help but ask, "Can you tell me … my father … what is he doing here? Is he also a hard worker? "
Gong Mingyue glanced at Gong Minglan. Gong Minglan hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Your father should still be in prison."
"Prison? Locked up? " Lin Zijin's eyes flashed with killing intent as she looked at Gong Minglan. "Why didn't you say so before?"
Gong Minglan smiled bitterly. "Do you know how terrifying the Gong Castle's prison is?"
"I'm asking you why you didn't say so before?" Lin Zijin looked at Gong Minglan.
"I told her not to say." Gong Mingyue walked up to Lin Zijin and bowed deeply. "Miss Lin, please don't be agitated. Let me explain."
Shirō Makino gently patted Lin Zijin's back. "Girl, don't worry. No matter where uncle is, I will save him."
Lin Zijin took a deep breath and looked at Gong Minglan apologetically. "I'm sorry. It's my bad attitude."
Gong Minglan bowed. "Miss, there's no need to be like this. This servant can't accept it."
"Miss Lin, there's a reason why I didn't tell Minglan," Gong Mingyue explained with a bitter smile. "I only found out about this after Minglan told me that she had seen your father."
"About ten years ago, your father and mother came to the Gong Castle. In the end, just like your father and mother, because of their outstanding appearances, they were chosen by some of the nobles in the castle."
"In fact, this kind of thing is very common in the Gong Castle. Just like this time, Gong Changlong lied to you and your father. You either obey or be suppressed. "
"What people didn't expect was that your father and mother used some unknown method to escape from the Gong Castle. In the past few hundred years, they were the only two people to have escaped from the castle. "
"After they escaped, they disappeared without a trace. I heard that they secretly came back and tried to rescue their husband, but failed. However, this is just a rumor. Whether it's true or not, we don't know. "
"There are also people who say that they didn't escape at all. Perhaps they have already … already met with misfortune."
Lin Zijin gripped Shirō Makino's hand tightly. Her body trembled slightly, and a strong murderous intent erupted from her body.
"Girl, calm down. They're definitely fine." Shirō Makino said in a low voice.
Gong Mingyue looked at Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin worriedly. Seeing that they were still calm, she said, "These rumors are both true and false. We all think that it's more likely that they escaped."
"After that incident, the Gong Castle's security became even tighter. It's almost impossible for them to escape."
"Later on, your father was very capable, and he didn't seem to have anything to do with the madam's escape. After being punished, he was sent to the Heavenly River's area to deal with creatures."
"However, Miss Lin's father refused to give up because of the noble who had taken a fancy to him. She tried many times to make him stay by her side, but Miss Lin's father refused to agree. He would rather die than submit. In the end, he was thrown into the dungeon … and has been locked up ever since."
"I'm very close to the noble lady's maids, so I've heard about this."
"However, this kind of thing happened frequently in the Gong Castle. All these years, our biggest wish was to take revenge, so we didn't pay much attention to these things."
"If you and Miss Lin hadn't come this time, I wouldn't have remembered this at all."
Gong Mingyue looked at Lin Zijin and said, "That's why we didn't dare to tell Miss Lin before. We were afraid that Miss Lin would be too agitated and try to break into the Gong Castle. Not only would that fail, but it would also ruin everything …"
"Even now, what we've said is one-sided. We can't guarantee that it's true." Gong Mingyue looked at Lin Zijin and Shirō Makino. "The Gong Castle has always been very strict. Although our status is much higher than that of the servants, we don't have the right to know everything. Previously, I was able to follow Gong Zhangfeng because … "
She didn't continue speaking, but everyone understood a lot from her gloomy eyes.
Lin Zijin stepped forward and held Gong Mingyue's hand. "I'm sorry. I was too agitated. You've already helped us a lot. Without you, we wouldn't even have been able to enter the Gong Castle."
Gong Mingyue said in a low voice, "Miss Lin, you really don't need to apologize to us. We'll be scared. We're Young Master's maids. This is what we should do. "
Lin Zijin shook her head. "My brother, Chae Yi, and I don't care about this. When we leave this place one day, my brother will give you freedom."
"No, don't. We've already sworn an oath to follow Young Master for life. We won't leave. Miss Lin, please don't chase us away. "Gong Mingyue looked frightened.
Lin Zijin was a little confused. Wasn't freedom good?
Once you leave, you'll be the unrivalled empress!
You'll be able to dominate the world!
Why are you willing to be maids?
Although I'm very happy to have someone like you by my brother's side …
You're good at handling internal affairs, you're good at fighting, and you can even warm the bed at critical moments … But the problem is, this is very unrealistic!
Even if they had sworn an oath, Lin Zijin had never thought that they would be able to follow her brother forever.
Ji Chae Yi was also confused.
The two of them were from two completely different worlds. Their way of thinking was not on the same track.
Shirō Makino looked at Gong Mingyue. "Don't be in a hurry to make a decision. You've never seen the outside world before. It won't be too late to make a decision when the day comes."
"No matter what, we won't leave. Young Master's kindness to us is more important than anything else." Gong Mingyue had a serious expression.
Gong Minglan and Gong Mingxue also expressed that they would never be disloyal and would follow Shirō Makino forever.
"So Young Master, please don't chase us away." Gong Mingyue looked at Shirō Makino cautiously.
Xiao Bai smiled bitterly. These three were really stubborn. He could only nod. "I promise you. But if you want to leave one day, I won't stop you."
"Definitely not!" Gong Mingyue and the other two swore again.
Ji Chae Yi was a little speechless. Then, she glanced at Shirō Makino.
Shirō Makino nodded lightly at her.
At this point, there was no harm in letting these three sisters know about some things.
Chae Yi looked at Gong Mingyue and asked, "Mingyue, can you enter the dungeon where Zijin's father is locked up?"
Gong Mingyue shook her head. "No, we can't even get close."
"Then … What about Gong Changfeng?" Chae Yi asked again.
"Him? Of course he can. "Gong Mingyue looked at Chae Yi." But he's already dead! "
Chae Yi ignored Gong Mingyue's doubts and asked again, "If it's Gong Changfeng, won't he be able to enter the dungeon directly without any formalities?"
"This … depends on who's holding him. If it's someone like Miss Lin's father, who's always under the watch of the nobles in the castle, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult." Gong Mingyue said, then shook her head. "It's useless to talk about this now. He's already …"
As she said that, Gong Mingyue's vision blurred. The dead Gong Changfeng suddenly appeared in front of her!
The clothes on his body, the expression on his face, even the look in his eyes … were exactly the same!
"What's wrong with me?" Ji Chae Yi, who had transformed into Gong Changfeng, looked at Gong Mingyue with a smile on his face.
Gong Mingyue shuddered and almost screamed in fright.
Shirō Makino said softly, "Don't be afraid."
Gong Mingyue covered her mouth with her hand. Beside her, Gong Minglan and Gong Mingxue were also a little frightened.
Their faces were pale, and their eyes were filled with shock.
This face had always been the greatest nightmare of the three sisters!
The moment they saw Gong Changfeng die with their own eyes was the happiest moment of their lives!
If not for that, even if they had never seen the wonders of the outside world, as Emperor level powerhouses, how could they be so willing to swear to follow Xiao Bai for life?
But when this face appeared in front of them again, the fear that came from the depths of their souls instantly occupied the hearts and minds of the three sisters.
Even though they knew that Gong Changfeng was already dead and that this person in front of them couldn't be him, the three sisters were still so frightened that their souls almost left their bodies.
For an Emperor level powerhouse to be frightened to this extent, in the three great empires of the human world, it was simply an incomparably ridiculous joke!
"Don't be afraid, it's me." Ji Chae Yi said, returning to his original voice.
"You, how did you do it? This … this is called makeup? "Gong Mingyue's eyes widened, still filled with fear.
