Since both Shui Yichen and Ye Wei were not in the palace, there was no need for Ye Zhen and Mo Rongzhan to stay in the capital. When Shui Miaomiao heard that they were leaving, she looked at Ye Zhen with tears in her eyes.
"Miaomiao, I really have something important to do. I will come back to you when I am done." Ye Zhen whispered, checking Shui Miaomiao's pulse. "You have to come out to bask in the sun and walk around more. Your body is yours. Don't give up on yourself because of others. If you really don't like living in the capital, I will take you to the capital after you give birth to the child."
Shui Miaomiao nodded when she heard Ye Zhen's words. "That's what you said. I will go to the capital to find you."
Ye Zhen laughed. "Well, that's what I said."
"Yao Yao, where are you going?" Zhao Tianji asked. He wanted to know what they had to do with Shui Yichen. It seemed to be something very important.
"Shui Yichen should be going to the Wasteland City. Let's go find him." Ye Zhen said.
Zhao Tianji let Shui Miaomiao go back to rest first and personally sent Ye Zhen out. "Is there … something wrong with the emperor?"
"Don't you think there is a problem?" Ye Zhen asked.
"I knew Shui Yichen when I was in China. He watched Miaomiao grow up. Miaomiao is his only relative. Although he is deep and indifferent, there is nothing to say about his sister. It was the first time I saw him so fierce to Miaomiao. Moreover, he did not allow Miaomiao to say anything bad about Ye Wei. He seems to be the original Shui Yichen, but at the same time, he seems to be a different person. I can't explain it clearly. If Miaomiao really wants to leave the capital, I think it is a good thing."
Zhao Tianji whispered. He originally stayed in Yuan Country for Shui Miaomiao. Shui Yichen was an unfathomable person. He used to think that he was a brother who loved his sister, but now he was just an emperor.
If Miaomiao continued to stay, he didn't know if she would be in danger.
"Does Shui Yichen's change have anything to do with Ye Wei?" Ye Wei was deep in thought. She knew Shui Yichen well and knew that he was not someone who would be easily tempted by others. Furthermore, he had a strong will and was definitely not a muddle-headed and useless person. That was why she was assured to hand the Yuan Country over to him. As for his ruthless actions, would he change because of Ye Wei?
"I think there must be a connection. That Imperial Consort Ye …" Zhao Tianji frowned. "Although I haven't seen her many times, she gives people a very strange feeling. She's different from when she was outside the palace."
Ye Zhen said, "Then let's go find Shui Yichen and see what he has become."
Zhao Tianji glanced at them, "I haven't found out what you asked me to investigate before. However, when Lu Wushuang was in the palace, Imperial Concubine Ye went to see her several times. No one knows what they talked about."
"I know. Take care of Miao Miao. Don't let her eat anything again." Ye Zhen said.
"Alright," Zhao Tianji agreed.
…
…
After bidding farewell to Zhao Tianji, Ye Zhen and the others didn't leave immediately. They returned to the palace after nightfall.
"The palace … seems a little strange." The moment Ye Zhen entered the harem, she felt a breath that made her feel very uncomfortable. "It's not a monster. What is it?"
Mo Rongzhan said, "Perhaps this is the reason for Shui Yichen's change."
"Ye Wei?" Ye Zhen was stunned. "But she's not in the palace. Is this the breath of the Blood Demon?"
None of them had encountered the Blood Demon before, so they didn't know what it was like. But this strange breath made them feel depressed, affecting the little spiritual energy in their Qi Sea.
Since Ye Wei was not in the palace, how could there be such a breath?
"Unless Ye Wei is not the Blood Demon, and the real Blood Demon is still in the palace." Mo Rongzhan said.
"What?" Ye Zhen looked at him in surprise. "Did you find something?"
Mo Rongzhan said, "The source of this breath is in the palace. Let's find it first."
There was not even a star in the night tonight. Thick clouds blocked the moonlight. Because Shui Yichen was not there, the harem was quiet and even the lights were dim. After all, Ye Zhen had lived here for a long time. Walking in the palace with familiarity, they followed the strange breath and found that they were getting closer and closer to the cold palace.
Cold palace? Ye Zhen and Mo Rongzhan looked at each other. She had been to the cold palace several times before but never felt this breath.
Perhaps she hadn't cultivated at that time, so she didn't feel it?
"Ah Zhan, this is where Lu Wushuang used to be." Ye Zhen whispered. She took out the night pearl from her arms and illuminated the surrounding scenery. "It seems that … this place has been repaired."
Why would the harem be repaired for no reason?
Mo Rongzhan held Ye Zhen's hand. "It's not repair. There is an array here. These stones and flowers are all arrays. Someone doesn't want us to get close to this place."
Ye Zhen was stunned. "Is there something in the cold palace?"
"This is a ghost array. If you enter the array by mistake, you will be confused by the illusion and others will think that you have seen a ghost." Mo Rongzhan said.
This is to scare people away from the cold palace.
Mo Rongzhan did not destroy the ghost array. He took Ye Zhen's hand and walked into the array. Immediately, the howling of wolves and ghosts came to his ears, making him nervous and afraid.
"Block the sound with your spiritual power." Mo Rongzhan reminded her. The black sword in his hand moved an orchid in front of him half a step away, and the sound immediately became much quieter.
Then, two female ghosts appeared next to them with ferocious faces. With Mo Rongzhan's reminder, Ye Zhen knew that what she saw was an illusion, so she pretended not to see the two female ghosts.
The two female ghosts suddenly rushed towards Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen was startled when she saw them.
Mo Rongzhan flicked his fingertips and knocked down a broken chrysanthemum not far away.
The two female ghosts immediately disappeared.
He did not directly destroy the array because he knew that if it was broken, the person who laid it would definitely find out. They still didn't know who the other party was, so he tried to be as cautious as possible.
"Who was the one who set up this formation? This … can't be done by mortals. "Ye Zhen asked in surprise. To be able to lay such an array, this person must not be simple.
"Well, this is not something from the human continent." Mo Rongzhan said. "It should be a ghost cultivator from the Xuantian Continent who knows how to lay this array."
Ye Zhen frowned. "Ghost cultivator?"
"Let's go inside and take a look first." Mo Rongzhan had no time to explain. They had already passed through the array and arrived at the cold palace.
In the darkness, Ye Zhen didn't feel that the cold palace was any different from before. There was only cold wind and no decent chairs. But because there was no difference, she felt that there was definitely something wrong here.
Mo Rongzhan asked Ye Zhen to take out two or three Ye Mingzi and placed them everywhere in the hall. Only then did he see what was going on in the hall.
