"Alright, pass down my order. All powerhouses are to gather at the training field and prepare to open the Secret Land!" The next moment, the Emperor's voice resounded throughout the entire central hall.
Hearing the emperor's decision, one of the people present frowned. This person was none other than Eunuch Xi.
He knew that Zhou Yingxue and the others were currently in the mystic realm of the imperial city. If the Emperor and the others went in like this, they would definitely discover them. When that happened, Zhou Yingxue and the others would be in danger.
No, I have to tell Young Master about this immediately and ask him to bring the people out before His Majesty and the others enter the Secret Territory! This thought flashed in Eunuch Xi's mind.
Then, when the people in the main hall walked out and walked towards the training field, he found a gap and left the crowd.
He was doing this to send a message to Linlong.
Eunuch Xi heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that no one was following him.
Then, he hurriedly walked out of the palace.
Doing so now was very dangerous, but in order to inform Linlong, he couldn't care less.
Not long after, he arrived at the gate of the Imperial Palace.
"Yes. Eunuch Xi, where are you going? Didn't His Majesty order everyone to gather at the martial practice grounds?" The guards at the gate couldn't help feeling puzzled when they saw Eunuch Xi about to leave.
"I naturally have something to do when I go out. Why are you asking so many questions? Aren't you afraid that the wind will cut your tongue?" Eunuch Xi said coldly.
Hearing Eunuch Xi say this, the guard couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly said, "Eunuch Xi, you've misunderstood. I was just casually asking."
After saying that, he quickly let them pass.
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, Eunuch Xi walked out of the west gate.
After walking for a while and seeing that no one was following them, Eunuch Xi was completely relieved.
However, just as he was about to turn into the courtyard where Lin Long and the rest were, a figure suddenly blocked his path.
Seeing this person, Eunuch Xi could not help but frown because this was a eunuch who did not like him.
"Tsk tsk, Eunuch Xi, where are you going?" asked the eunuch.
"Of course he has something important to do!" Eunuch Xi said with a gloomy face.
"Something important? What could be more important than going to the training grounds? "the other party continued.
"Of course I won't tell you about this. Please move aside!" Eunuch Xi said coldly.
"I'm sorry, if I didn't know what Eunuch Xi was going to do, I wouldn't have moved aside," the other party said slowly.
"Since that's the case, then I can only offend you!" After saying that, Eunuch Xi took out his Level 5 Ice Talisman.
"Eunuch Xi, although I don't usually have a good relationship with you, you don't need to treat me like this, right? Could it be that what you want to do is very special? Do you need to attack your own people? "The other party chuckled.
"One of us? You're wrong, you have nothing to do with me! "Eunuch Xi said.
As he spoke, he began to recite the runic terms.
"Tsk tsk, then let me experience Eunuch Xi's brilliant moves. Let's see if Eunuch Xi has improved or if I have!" the other party said.
As he spoke, he began to recite the runic terms.
In the next moment, the two of them began to attack each other.
In the past, Eunuch Xi had sparred with the other party, and the two of them were on par with each other. Hence, the other party said that just now.
However, Eunuch Xi was very confident now. After following Linlong for so many days, he hadn't followed him for nothing. He had learned a lot from Linlong, even though he had only seen him a few times.
As expected, his Ice Talisman quickly suppressed the other party, and in just a short while, the other party began to tremble.
"Eunuch Xi, how did you suddenly become stronger?" The other party cried out in surprise.
"My strength has always been above yours. I was just letting you win previously," Eunuch Xi said calmly.
"I don't believe it … Could it be that you had some fortuitous encounter recently?" the other party said.
After saying that, the eunuch directly knelt down. It was obvious that he couldn't hold on any longer.
At this moment, Eunuch Xi's eyes became even colder. He was prepared to directly rush to Linlong's place after getting rid of this person.
Time waited for no man. He didn't want the emperor to bring Zhou Yingxue and the others in before Linlong brought them out.
After a dozen or so breaths, the eunuch completely couldn't hold on any longer. He was already sprawled on the ground.
Although this place was very close to the west gate, it was a bit secluded and not many people could see them. Even if someone saw the two of them fighting, they wouldn't dare to interfere. After all, the two of them looked like eunuchs with extraordinary identities.
Seeing that the other party had lost his resistance, Eunuch Xi completely heaved a sigh of relief.
However, just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard the sound of wind behind him. Then, an old man blocked in front of him.
Seeing this old man, Eunuch Xi's expression immediately became extremely ugly. This was because the person in front of him was none other than Elder He, who could activate the sixth-grade Ice Talisman.
"Eunuch Xi, what's going on? Why did you knock your own people to the ground?" Elder He asked coldly.
Eunuch Xi's thoughts raced, and then he hurriedly said, "Elder He, Eunuch Li launched a sneak attack on me just now. Fortunately, I dodged it. After that, he wasn't satisfied and still wanted to fight with me. I could only fight him fiercely. He wasn't my match and was eventually knocked to the ground by me."
"Even if this is true, why did you leave the palace at this critical juncture? Why didn't you go to the martial arts field?!" Elder He reprimanded.
"This … I have something to tell a friend," Eunuch Xi said.
"Tell a friend? Tsk tsk, Eunuch Xi, His Majesty has already ordered you to go to the martial arts field, yet you still want to come out and tell him something. You're really bold! "Elder He sneered.
"Elder He, it's really like that," Eunuch Xi said anxiously.
"I'll ask Eunuch Li if it's like that!" As he spoke, Elder He squatted down, and then he tapped Eunuch Li's body with his palm. In the next moment, Eunuch Li, who was sprawled on the ground, woke up.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Elder He, who was very close to him.
"Elder He, what about Eunuch Xi?" Eunuch Li asked with a confused expression.
"Eunuch Xi is right in front of you. What happened to you? Why were you knocked to the ground by him?" Elder He asked.
"It's like this. I saw Eunuch Xi sneak out, so I stood in front of him and asked him why he went out at this critical juncture. He said he had something to do, so I said he couldn't go out at this critical juncture. He attacked me. I wasn't his match, so he knocked me to the ground," Eunuch Li said.
Hearing Eunuch Li's words, Elder He immediately said to Eunuch Xi, "Eunuch Xi, it seems like you have some unspeakable secret!"
"Elder He, absolutely not. I really just went to tell him something," Eunuch Xi hurriedly said.
"Hehe, Eunuch Xi, don't lie to me. If you really have something to do, then follow me to His Majesty's place, to Grandmaster Zong's place!" Elder He said.
"Don't, Elder He!" Eunuch Xi's expression changed.
If he went to the Emperor and Grandmaster Zong, even if he really had nothing to do, he would be said to have something to do.
"Eunuch Xi, this isn't up to you!" Elder He stared at Eunuch Xi.
Knowing that he wouldn't be able to inform Linlong if he went there, Eunuch Xi gritted his teeth and directly took out his Ice Talisman.
He threw caution to the wind, even though he knew he wasn't Elder He's match.
"Tsk tsk, it seems like you really have something important to do. Otherwise, why would you dare to fight me with your life on the line?" Elder He said.
As he spoke, he took out his Level Six Ice Talisman.
In the next moment, the two of them silently recited the rune terminology at the same time.
Although it was at the same time, the speed at which Elder He activated the Ice Talisman was clearly faster than Eunuch Xi.
However, Elder He didn't directly attack Eunuch Xi. Instead, he deliberately paused for a moment before arrogantly saying, "Eunuch Xi, I'll let you have a little!"
As he spoke, his Ice Talisman directly attacked Eunuch Xi.
At the same time, Eunuch Xi's Ice Talisman greeted him.
However, his Ice Talisman was too weak compared to his opponent's, so he couldn't resist it at all. In just a short period of time, he was frozen and knelt on the ground.
"The Level Six Ice Talisman is indeed powerful!" Eunuch Xi said unwillingly.
"Of course!" Elder He said proudly.
As he spoke, Eunuch Xi had already lost the ability to resist.
"Alright, Eunuch Li, bring Eunuch Xi back!" Elder He looked at Eunuch Li and ordered.
"Yes!" Eunuch Li hurriedly replied.
Then, he escorted Eunuch Xi back to the palace.
Young Master, forgive this subordinate for being incompetent and not being able to inform you! Eunuch Xi sighed in his heart.
He knew that the people in the mystic realm were very important to Linlong.
Eunuch Xi didn't know that Elder Liang had seen the scene of his fight with Elder He.
Elder Liang heard that there was an unusual movement in the palace, so he came over to take a look. He didn't expect to see the scene of Eunuch Xi being captured.
An expert who could activate Level Six Ice Talisman actually attacked Eunuch Xi. Could something big have happened in the palace? He had to immediately report this matter to Young Master! As he thought about this, Elder Liang immediately returned to the courtyard where Linlong and the others were staying.
Not long after, he saw Linlong, Qian Jiayi, and the others.
"Elder Liang, why do you look like you're in a hurry?" Linlong couldn't help but ask when he saw Elder Liang.
"Young Master, it's bad. Eunuch Xi was captured by an expert who could activate Level Six Ice Talisman in the palace!" Elder Liang hurriedly said.
"What?" Linlong couldn't help but be shocked.
The people around him also looked over.
"Just now, I also felt that there was an unusual movement in the palace," Elder Liang added.
"Young Master, if they torture Eunuch Xi and find out where we are hiding, it'll be troublesome!" Dong Luo said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Eunuch Xi won't tell them," Linlong said directly.
Eunuch Xi had taken the Fate Obeying Pill, so he wasn't worried that Eunuch Xi would betray him.
"The most important thing now is to figure out what happened!" Linlong then said.
"Young Master means to go to the palace to investigate?" Qian Jiayi asked.
"Yes, I'll go personally to investigate and see what exactly happened!" Linlong said.
"Young Master, do you want us to go with you?" Miao Feng asked.
"No need, I'll go by myself." Linlong waved his hand.
After saying that, Linlong left the place and walked toward the palace.
