In the Astral Wilderness, on a barren planet, Zuo 'er and Nan Bo stood quietly on a mountain peak.
22
After the commotion at the exit of the Heavenly Palace Star Region, they immediately escaped into the Astral Wilderness to avoid being searched. The route they took had been planned beforehand.
"Senior, he's here," Zuo 'er reminded.
Nan Bo, who was in a meditative state, slowly opened his eyes and saw a person quickly flying over from the depths of the starry sky. It was none other than Guo Yanting.
Guo Yanting, who had arrived in a flash, landed in front of Nan Bo, cupped his fists and bowed before handing over a storage ring.
Nan Bo looked at the contents of the storage ring and saw a woman lying quietly inside. He asked, "She's Lin Aoxue?"
Guo Yanting said, "There's no mistake. She's Lin Aoxue, the wife of the original Stellar Sovereign, Taishu Wenchang. I knew her before she committed the crime."
Nan Bo then handed the storage ring to Zuo 'er.
After seeing it, Zuo 'er was secretly amazed. They could even get someone out like this. Master Qing would probably go crazy with anger. She nodded and said, "Yes, it's Lin Aoxue."
After getting confirmation, Nan Bo poked Guo Yanting's body. The latter didn't dodge or evade, allowing Nan Bo to control his cultivation.
Nan Bo then slapped Guo Yanting's head. Guo Yanting's eyes rolled back and he fainted. Nan Bo pressed him down and made him sit cross-legged on the ground.
Soon, five golden threads drilled out of Guo Yanting's head and returned to Nan Bo's hand.
He waved his sleeve and put Guo Yanting away. He then waved his hand to release Du Qiao, who was unconscious. Once again, he cast a spell to release five golden threads into Du Qiao's head.
Guo Yanting couldn't be released again. After such a thing happened, the Heavenly Court would soon find out about Guo Yanting. For Nan Bo, Guo Yanting was no longer of any use and could only be kept as a backup. Du Qiao, on the other hand, hadn't been exposed. Perhaps he could play a greater role.
After that, Nan Bo woke Du Qiao up. Du Qiao, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, got up and bowed.
Nan Bo warned, "Something happened in the Heavenly Palace. Go back quickly, lest someone suspects you. Go straight in that direction, and in less than an hour, you'll naturally arrive at a Star Domain that you're familiar with. "He pointed in a direction.
"Yes!" Du Qiao obeyed and left in a flash, flying in the direction that Nan Bo pointed out without any hesitation.
Nan Bo turned around and gestured to Zuo 'er. Zuo' er understood and released Lin Aoxue. She removed the restriction on her body and woke her up.
Lin Aoxue, who had just woken up, recognized Zuo'er. She exclaimed in shock, "Steward Zuo'er, aren't you …" Fei Hong hadn't told her about the Ying family, but she had heard from the sinful women that Ying Jiuguang had been punished to the same place as her, so she knew that Ying Jiuguang had fallen from power.
Looking around, Lin Aoxue was bewildered. He did not know why he was here, nor did he know why Zuo 'er was by his side.
A golden silhouette suddenly crashed into her from behind. The demonic monk Nan Bo's spirit had already left his body and invaded her body. Lin Aoxue instantly became muddle-headed.
After a while, the spirit left his body again and returned to his previous body.
Nan Bo, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly stood up and stared at Lin Aoxue, who had her eyes closed. He revealed a strange expression and muttered, "Interesting. So Niu Youde's real purpose was to save this woman. I almost made a fool of myself …"
Zuo'er asked, "Senior, is there a problem?"
Nan Bo asked, "Niu Youde has a concubine named Fei Hong. Have you heard of her?"
Zuo'er nodded and said, "Yes! There is such a person. This woman was originally a prostitute, but she was forcibly taken by Niu Youde. Later, her godmother, Grandma Lü of the Green Central Garden, appeared. Niu Youde was forced to take her as a concubine. I heard that she is getting along well with Niu Youde. "
Nan Bo laughed and said, "That Fei Hong is a spy placed by the Left Monitoring Division beside Niu Youde, and this Lin Aoxue is Fei Hong's birth mother!"
"Fei Hong is a spy of the Left Monitoring Division? Then why does Niu Youde still want to save her … "The surprised Zuo'er suddenly paused and slapped her forehead. She suddenly realized something and said," I understand now. Niu Youde should have known Fei Hong's identity long ago. The two of them should have reached some kind of agreement. Fei Hong became Niu Youde's spy while Niu Youde helped Fei Hong to save her mother! In other words, Niu Youde has been using Fei Hong to win the trust of the Heavenly Palace. No wonder. No wonder Qing Zhu turned a blind eye to Niu Youde. So this is the reason … "
Nan Bo shook his head and said, "After going around for so long, he actually wanted to save this woman. This little thief is extraordinarily cunning!"
Zuo'er suddenly frowned and said hesitantly, "It seems that it is not as simple as reaching an agreement. Niu Youde can completely ignore the agreement with Fei Hong at this point, but Niu Youde still tried his best to save her. In this case, this Niu Youde is indeed loyal to Fei Hong … Tai-shu Wen Chang's family has encountered a catastrophe, and his daughter is able to meet such a man. Tai-shu Wen Chang's spirit in heaven must have been blessed." There was a hint of emotion in her words.
"Isn't this just right?" Nan Bo smiled faintly.
Zuo'er nodded and understood what he meant. Since Niu Youde loved Fei Hong so much, they were more confident in exchanging Lin Aoxue for the divine grass.
"Let's go!" Nan Bo waved his sleeve and kept Lin Aoxue. He took the lead and flew towards the starry sky.
Since the two of them had a way to come here, they naturally had a way to leave …
In the Li Palace, Shangguan Qing was anxiously pacing back and forth between the pavilions. His heart was burning with worry.
It was not difficult for him to find out the cause of the incident. First, there was an attack at the gate of the Li Palace. Next, there was an attack at the exit of the Heavenly Palace Star Region. These two incidents happened one after another. It was hard not to connect the two incidents. Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence? These two places were not ordinary. How could they be attacked at the same time?
He did not need to worry about the exit of the Heavenly Palace Star Region. That was the responsibility of the guards. However, he naturally had to find out the situation at the Li Palace. Why did something happen at the Li Palace? He was clearest about the secrets hidden in the Li Palace. After the incident, he immediately came to check if there were any omissions in the place of refining the treasure.
It would have been better if he did not check, but when he did, he was shocked to find that one person was missing from the place of refining the treasure. Of all people to be missing, it was Lin Aoxue!
Lin Aoxue was Fei Hong's mother. Fei Hong was Niu Youde's favorite concubine. Niu Youde was the current Commanding King of the Southern Army. Now, His Majesty wanted to use Fei Hong's power to get rid of Niu Youde. He wanted to kill the Commanding King of the Southern Army secretly. This was not a small matter. It was also something that could not be seen in the light.
Why was Lin Aoxue missing? This matter could not stand up to scrutiny. A little thought would be enough to figure out the truth. Who else in the world would spend so much effort to save Lin Aoxue? Who else but Fei Hong? Fei Hong could not have such ability. How could anyone in the Heavenly Palace Star Region do it? Only the man behind Fei Hong could have such ability. If this matter had nothing to do with Niu Youde, Shangguan Qing dared to bet that he would cut off his own head!
After finding out that Lin Aoxue had disappeared, he naturally had to find out how she disappeared. It would be clear who was in and out before and after the incident. The target was immediately Guo Yanting. Shangguan Qing naturally contacted Guo Yanting immediately to confirm, but Guo Yanting disappeared and could not be found. He had lost contact!
After knowing this news, Shangguan Qing was a little stunned and almost broke out in a cold sweat. This was even more terrifying than Lin Aoxue's disappearance. There was a spy among the Shadow Guards, and it was the leader of the Shadow Guards!
This time, Shangguan Qing was really scared. The Shadow Guards had actually colluded with Niu Youde to rescue Lin Aoxue from under the nose of Qing Zhu. How could he explain this to Qing Zhu? Qing Zhu had only said to find out what was going on, but how could he dare to report it after the investigation? If Qing Zhu knew, he would skin him alive. He had given him his most trusted force, and he had actually made such a mess!
Outside the Li Palace, Defeating Armies and Wuqu were also alarmed. It was one thing for someone to sneak attack outside, but to actually attack the Li Palace where the Celestial Emperor often stayed. What kind of joke was this? The guards were all from the Imperial Guards. How could the two not hurry to find out what was going on? At the very least, they had to confirm that everything was fine.
Not long later, another person landed. It was the Supervising Left Custodian, Sima Wentian. Looking at the situation at the door, he walked to Wuqu's side and asked, "What happened?"
Wuqu looked at the dead servant on the ground and frowned. "A suicidal madman has appeared. He actually came here to die for no reason."
Sima Wentian sneered and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. I heard that there was also an attack outside. With so many incidents happening around the Heavenly Palace, how could it be a coincidence? Have you found out the identity of this person? "
Wuqu frowned and said, "I have confirmed it. It is a servant of Guang Ling Gong's side residence."
"Did Guang Ling Gong take the wrong medicine? Why would he send a servant to attack the Li Palace? " Sima Wentian joked. He glanced at Defeating Armies's dark face. This person usually did not speak politely to him, so he was happy to watch the show. He turned around and entered the Li Palace. After all, it had nothing to do with him.
When he came to the pavilions inside the palace, he saw Shangguan Qing, who had asked to meet him. He swaggered over and said with a smile, "Head Chief, why do you look so uneasy?" He asked while knowing the answer. He knew that Shangguan Qing was worried about the attack and probably had something to ask of him.
Shangguan Qing turned around and pointed at him as if he was blaming him for dragging his feet. He beckoned him to come over quickly. When Sima Wentian came closer, he immediately whispered in his ear, "Sima, something big has happened this time. I'm afraid that both you and I will be in trouble!"
Sima Wentian muttered to himself, "What does it have to do with me?" He put on a fake smile and said, "Head Chief, why do you have to be so alarmist? Isn't it just a sneak attack from inside and outside? As far as I know, there shouldn't be any losses, right?"
Shangguan Qing anxiously stamped his feet and reminded him, "Lin Aoxue has been kidnapped. He has probably been taken out of the Heavenly Palace."
"..." Sima Wentian was stunned. He gradually widened his eyes and said, "Shangguan, you must be joking..." He then looked around and suddenly asked, "You can't be hiding Lin Aoxue in the Li Palace, right? Is the place where the Mage Breaker Bow was forged really under the Li Palace? " If even Du Qiao could guess it, he naturally had his suspicions as well. It was just that some things could only be kept in his heart and could not be verified.
Shangguan Qing bitterly smiled and nodded, admitting it. Even Niu Youde knew the place, so this matter was probably no longer a secret.
