It wasn't dark at night in the Imperial Sky City. Many of the mansions were still as bright as day. Most of the shops on the streets were open for business, and customers were streaming in. Some of the streets were even livelier than during the day, showing the prosperity of the imperial capital.
However, the underground of the imperial capital was quiet.
Lin Xuan used the Earth Traversing Technique and traveled through the earth, rushing towards Qing Ming's location.
At the same time, he used the Luck Observation Divine Ability to carefully observe his surroundings.
As the imperial capital of the Daqian dynasty, there were countless experts patrolling the Imperial Sky City at all times, either in the open or in the dark. Even the underground was the same.
A few days ago, when Lin Xuan was fighting with the Keelung Sect, he had encountered the Zombie Path's Golden Scale Guard patrolling the underground many times. If he didn't run fast enough, he would have been entangled several times.
However, he was more careful and used the Luck Observation Divine Ability to observe the front. He could easily avoid the Golden Scale Guard and didn't encounter any more trouble.
The Imperial Sky City was 900 miles from north to south and 500 miles from east to west. It was the biggest city in the world.
Lin Xuan carefully avoided dozens of Golden Scale Guard and gradually came to the west side of the city, below a mansion that occupied a large area.
During this period of time, he had already investigated some of the major forces in the imperial capital. Among them, there were more than 30 first-rate families. These families had numerous branches and businesses all over the world. They even had connections with the outside world. Their strength wasn't weaker than some first-rate sects.
And the Shen family was one of them.
Other than the dead Shen Tianxing, it was rumored that the Shen family had a low-level Divine Ability Realm expert, more than seven Heaven Transformation Realm experts, and more than 80 God Astral Realm experts.
This was clearly an extremely powerful force.
Lin Xuan didn't dare to be careless. He restrained his aura and circled the underground of the Shen family. At the same time, he communicated with the Dragon Emperor's Golden Book to secretly find Qing Ming's location.
He gradually confirmed that Qing Ming was in a study in the front yard of the Shen residence.
"Qing Ming's body is huge. He can't be placed in the study. He's probably trapped in a spatial treasure, and the owner of the treasure is in the study."
Lin Xuan frowned.
A person who could possess a spatial treasure was definitely not an ordinary person. The possibility of rescuing Qing Ming without anyone knowing was too small.
However, although Qing Ming was usually not a high-profile person, he had done many things for the Holy Lotus Way in the past few years. Lin Xuan could not just ignore him. With the mentality of doing his best and leaving the rest to fate, he planned to go and take a look.
Now, what he used to hide his aura was no longer the Dragon Hibernating Pearl that he obtained from Mu Qingning, but a top grade profound treasure, the Mirage Spirit Mirror, that he seized from the enemy a year ago.
The function of the Mirage Spirit Mirror was much more powerful than the Dragon Hibernating Pearl. He could transform into any form, enough to pass off as the real thing. Even if it was a Transcendent realm expert, if he didn't check carefully, he might be able to get away with it. This was also one of the reasons why he dared to stay in the Imperial Heaven City.
This was an independent study. In front of the study, there was a large garden. In the garden, there were fake mountains and flowing water. There were rare stones everywhere, and there were various spiritual flowers and plants. It was elegant and beautiful.
There was no one in the garden. Lin Xuan quietly came out from the ground and quickly activated the Mirage Spirit Mirror. Next to the fake mountains, there was a strange stone that looked inconspicuous.
Of course, this stone was just an illusion. Lin Xuan's real body did not change at all.
Two martial arts qi images appeared in the sky above the study. This undoubtedly meant that there were two people in the study.
Lin Xuan did not dare to use his spiritual power to check casually. He only pricked up his ears and listened to the movements in the study.
"Guardian Zhuo, from what I know, Lin Xuan is a ruthless person. He is selfish and cold. We only captured one of his dragons. Can we really lure him out?" A young voice said hesitantly.
"I'm not sure either. But no matter if it works or not, we have to try," Guardian Zhuo said.
"Guardian Zhuo, I have an idea. Mu Qingxue and her sister should be there for the Martial Arts Society's gathering tomorrow. If this Hell Dragon can't lure Lin Xuan out, why don't we think of a way to detain Mu Qingxue? I'm sure Lin Xuan won't leave his fiancée alone, right?"
"Yukun, you have a good idea. But I'm afraid there will be endless troubles. If we touch Mu Qingxue, the Mu Clan will be the first to disagree.
It's not that we can't touch Mu Qingxue, but we have to think of a perfect plan. The Mu Clan's strength is not to be underestimated. Now is the critical moment of the Crown Prince's election. If the Mu Clan makes a fuss, there will be a lot of changes. It's not worth it.
Moreover, I only suspect that Lin Xuan is related to those people. It's best not to make a big deal out of this. "
"Alright, then we'll see what happens tomorrow …"
"…"
In the garden outside, Lin Xuan listened to the conversation between the two and couldn't help but be surprised.
He instantly recognized that Guardian Zhuo was the Imperial Slave expert who tried to kill him, Yu Tianxing and the others on the way to the Imperial Heaven City.
As for that young man, he was undoubtedly Shen Yukun.
"I really didn't expect the Shen Family to have such a close relationship with the Imperial Slave! Moreover, it seems that this Guardian Zhuo has already suspected me. "
Lin Xuan frowned slightly.
Being targeted by the Imperial Dao Slave was not a good sign.
Although he would definitely become a thorn in the side of the Imperial Slave soon, being targeted by the Imperial Slave so early was not part of his plan.
Almost no one knew about the Imperial Slave among the middle and lower level Martial Warriors and commoners.
However, in the eyes of some of the great powers, the Imperial Slave was a colossus that could not be provoked in the entire True Martial Realm. It was even above the seven great sects.
They possessed unimaginable power and unswervingly supported the Imperial Dao, suppressing the sects, causing the True Martial Realm to be under the rule of the Imperial Dynasty for tens of thousands of years. Not only were they the "Emperor", they were also the "Imperial Dynasty".
Such a colossus, if not for the huge benefits, Lin Xuan would not want to provoke it no matter what.
"Looks like I have to be more careful in the future. I have to make more arrangements!"
Lin Xuan secretly calculated in his heart as his body slowly sank into the ground.
With that Guardian Zhuo around, no matter who had Qing Ming, it would be difficult for him to save him. He could only give up for now.
As for these two fellows wanting to use Mu Qingxue to make an issue out of it, Lin Xuan also remembered it in his heart. He planned to find an opportunity to remind Mu Qingxue.
He quietly returned along the way.
Although he was unable to save Qing Ming this time, he knew the real mastermind behind this matter. It could be said that this trip was not in vain.
But then, just as he was less than ten miles away from the ground, he suddenly discovered a ball of luck in front of him.
"Hmm? It's the Golden Scale Guard! "
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and hurriedly wanted to take a detour.
However, not long after, he once again discovered the Golden Scale Guard's figure.
He quickly understood that this was probably an entire team of Golden Scale Guards patrolling this area. No matter which direction he took, there would be some trouble.
After thinking for a while, he simply floated to the ground.
As soon as he appeared, he immediately heard beautiful and lyrical music. It was very pleasing to the ear.
This was a not small courtyard, but it did not look like a proper mansion. The buildings inside looked more ordinary.
Lin Xuan carefully appeared at the edge of the courtyard and disguised himself as an inconspicuous small tree. He vigilantly observed his surroundings.
It was currently night, but the courtyard was brightly lit. Moreover, there were dozens of young men and women gathered in the middle of the courtyard. They were dressed in gorgeous clothes and lined up neatly. They were playing the zither, flute, and zither, and some were even giving instructions. It was as if they were practicing some kind of ceremony.
This seemed to be some family's ancestor's birthday celebration. The band that was invited was rehearsing. Lin Xuan did not pay much attention to it. He only waited for the patrolling Golden Scale Guard to leave before he returned to the Li Residence.
The security in the Imperial City had always been good. The small courtyard was not heavily guarded, so no one noticed him.
Lin Xuan waited quietly while watching the band practice in front of him with interest.
However, in the next moment, a slight look of surprise appeared on his face. This was because in front of the crowd, there was an unexpected figure.
"Eh! Isn't that Li Mojun's ex-fiancé? What is this guy doing? "
Lin Xuan curiously looked over and saw that in front of the band, there was a handsome young man wearing snow-white clothes. He was standing at the bottom of the stairs, his back facing the band as he looked forward.
This handsome young man was none other than Bai Yifan, the one who stood up Li Mojun on her wedding day.
Bai Yifan stood tall and had an extraordinary temperament. His right hand was behind his back, and his left hand was holding a one-foot square box. He was looking at the top of the stairs with a deep expression.
On the stairs stood a beautiful young girl.
Bai Yifan had a deep expression on his face. Behind him was a melodious music, and in front of him was a beautiful woman. This was a romantic and beautiful courtship scene.
Lin Xuan was secretly puzzled. Bai Yifan had made such a big scene. Could it be that this guy had fallen in love with someone else?
However, this scene was not bad. Coupled with Bai Yifan's qualifications, there were not many women who could refuse him.
In the next moment, he heard Bai Yifan's deep voice, "Xiao Jun, please forgive me! If you are willing to give me another chance, I will use the happiness of the rest of my life to make up for my mistakes! "
"Yi, Yifan, I forgive you."
The young girl held her hands in front of her chest, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she spoke in a trembling voice.
"Stop!"
Bai Yifan raised his eyebrows and scolded the young girl unhappily, "Xiu 'er, why didn't you follow the script? With this young master's understanding of Xiao Jun, she will not forgive me so easily! If you continue to act on your own, be careful that your monthly salary will be deducted! "
"Yes, yes, young master, please calm down! Xiu 'er knows her mistake! "
The young girl pouted and hurriedly admitted her mistake.
Bai Yifan waved his hand impatiently and said, "Alright, get up. Let's do it again!"
He turned around again and coldly glanced at those young boys and girls who were playing the music. With a deep voice, he roared, "And all of you, I've already told you a few times. When I start talking, all of you who are playing the music better lower your volume!
Tomorrow is the Martial Society's gathering. All the disciples of the great clans in the Imperial Capital will be present. At that time, if anyone dares to embarrass this young master, be careful of his life! "
"Yes, young master."
The handsome boys and girls behind him were silent like cicadas in winter. They all hurriedly responded. Soon after, the music started again.
Lin Xuan watched for a moment and finally understood. It turned out that Bai Yifan was actually rehearsing to ask for Li Mojun's forgiveness. He was going to make a big move at the Martial Society's gathering tomorrow.
"Hehe, how interesting. I wonder how Li Mojun will react in the face of such a scene? "
Lin Xuan was overjoyed.
