Five days later, Ling Dong, who had improved his family's strength and taken care of his family's affairs, rushed with Liu Yaoguang and arrived at the imperial capital of the Yaoguang Empire, Yaoguang City.
Normally, it would take at least half a month to travel from Nanshan Commandery to Yao Bu City. However, Ling Dong was bold because of his skills. He directly took a shortcut from the deep mountains to rush to the city.
If he encountered any ignorant demonic beasts, he would kill them with a single slash! Other martial artists would not dare to touch those dangerous places that might contain Earth Realm or even Heaven Realm demonic beasts. However, to Ling Dong, it was not a problem at all!
Even Heaven Realm demonic beasts would not be able to withstand Ling Dong's Rainbow Divine Saber and Greedy Wolf Black Sword. Therefore, Ling Dong had a proper route to take. He bought a horse nearby to hasten the journey. Anyway, he did not lack money. As for the detours, he just had to cross them!
After hurrying for five days, they finally arrived at the Imperial Capital, Brilliance City!
The reason why Ling Dong was in such a hurry was actually because of Zi Yao!
In the past, Ling Dong did not completely entrust the safety of the Ling family to the two Heaven Realm old ladies sent by Liu Yaoguang. After Zi Yao was promoted to the Pavilion Master of Alkaid City's Kuixing Pavilion, Ling Dong used Zi Yao's authority to issue an order to the Kuixing Pavilion Master of South Mountain County!
He wanted the Kuixing Pavilion to pay more attention to the Ling family! If the Ling family encountered any danger or something difficult to deal with, the Kuixing Pavilion Master of South Mountain County would inform Zi Yao through the small teleportation array set up in the Kuixing Pavilion!
Zi Yao would then pass the message to Ling Dong through another channel to the True Dipper Sect!
However, this time, even though such a big thing had happened to the Ling family, Gao Yuan, who was in the True Dipper Sect, had not received any message from Zi Yao.
Ling Dong thought that there was a problem with the manager of Kuixing Pavilion in Nanshan County. Therefore, he used his six-star crystal card, which was a very high status in Kuixing Pavilion, to inquire about it. However, the result that he got shocked Ling Dong!
As early as the day after the Ling family's shop in Two World City was closed down by the Wang family and the Clan Leader was injured, the manager of South Mountain Commandery sent this message to Alkaid City's Kui Xing Pavilion through the small teleportation array. Furthermore, Alkaid City's Kui Xing Pavilion received the message successfully and even gave a reply!
Ling Dong was well aware of the strict management of Kuixing Pavilion.
Since Leader Star of South Mountain Commandery had already sent the message and Ling Dong hadn't received any warning, there was only one explanation.
Something happened to Zi Yao!
If nothing had happened to Zi Yao, she would have definitely sent a message to True Kang Faction. Perhaps, Zi Yao would have already thought of ways to help the Ling family before Ling Dong even arrived at Nan Shan County!
However, none of this happened. Ling Dong concluded that something must have happened to Zi Yao! That was why Ling Dong had rushed to Brilliance City in a hurry!
When Ling Dong and Liu Yaoguang arrived at Alkaid City, it was already dusk and the city gates were already closed. However, this wasn't a problem for Ling Dong at all. After sneaking into Alkaid City, Ling Dong went straight to Kuixing Pavilion, which was located in the center of Alkaid City!
Ling Dong didn't even bother to wash up before he rushed to Kuixing Pavilion. He barged into Kuixing Pavilion and went straight to the fifth floor!
What Ling Dong didn't notice was that when he entered Kuixing Pavilion, the two beggars who had been huddling in front of Kuixing Pavilion suddenly took out a scroll and compared it. Both of them were ecstatic!
"Brother, we've done a good job this time! You stay here and watch. I'll report this to His Highness! " After comparing the scroll, the two unkempt beggars were ecstatic. However, one of them moved swiftly in the other direction of Alkaid City.
"Pa!" With a soft sound, Ling Dong slapped the six-star crystal token, which represented his identity as a VIP of Kuixing Pavilion, on the fifth floor in front of a steward who seemed to have a high position in Kuixing Pavilion!
"I want to see Pavilion Leader Zi Yao. Go and report this!" Ling Dong directly ordered.
The steward was shocked by the six-star crystal token in front of him. His arrogant gaze immediately turned humble, "Esteemed guest, Pavilion Leader Zi Yao is currently not in the pavilion. I'm very sorry!"
"Oh, not in the pavilion? Where did she go? When will she be back? Do I have an urgent matter to discuss with her? "Ling Dong asked calmly.
"This …" The steward revealed a troubled expression, "Esteemed guest, why are you looking for Pavilion Leader Zi Yao? If you don't tell me, I'll definitely report it to her when she returns!"
"Are you trying to find out my secret?" Ling Dong glanced at the steward coldly. The steward was so frightened that he quickly waved his hand. Ling Dong asked again, "Tell me quickly. When will Pavilion Leader Zi Yao be back?"
"Esteemed guest, it's like this. I don't know when Pavilion Leader Zi Yao will be back. If she comes back, I'll definitely …"
"Where did she go? Tell me quickly! If you continue to be long-winded, do you believe that I'll cripple you now? " In a hurry, Ling Dong revealed a ruthless look, "With this six-star crystal token, even if I cripple you, Kuixing Pavilion won't do anything to me, right?"
"Don't, I'll tell you! A month ago, the headquarters sent an order to summon Pavilion Leader Zi back to the headquarters suddenly. Currently, the Deputy Pavilion Leader is in charge of the affairs temporarily. As for the rest, I really don't know! "The steward said hurriedly.
"Summoned back to the headquarters of Kuixing Pavilion?" Ling Dong was puzzled.
After another round of questioning, Ling Dong left the Kuixing Pavilion with doubts in his heart.
A month ago, Ling Dong and the others should have just left Connecting Heaven Palace. Was it because of Bai Shaokui that they were summoned back to the headquarters? Or did something happen at the headquarters of Kuixing Pavilion?
Thinking back to when Ling Dong told Bai Shaokui that Heaven's Punishment had been lifted in the Upper Realm, Bai Shaokui rushed back with his men as soon as he left Connecting Heaven Palace. Ling Dong felt that there must be something wrong. There must be a secret that he did not know about!
But what did it have to do with Zi Yao?
However, Ling Dong was sure that if Zi Yao was summoned back to the headquarters, her safety should not be a problem. He could rest assured for the time being!
"Let's go, Yaoguang. Let's wash up and then go to King Ying's Mansion. I have something important to do!" After leaving Kuixing Pavilion, Ling Dong brought Liu Yaoguang straight to a nearby inn!
Ling Dong's trip to King Ying's Mansion, where the Seventh Prince was, was actually related to Kuixing Pavilion. However, it was related to Kuixing Pavilion's Fei Family!
However, after taking a few steps, Ling Dong felt that something was amiss. Someone was following him! With Ling Dong's current Soul Sense, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to follow Ling Dong without being detected by Ling Dong!
"Tell me, who sent you!" After finding a remote place, Ling Dong easily captured the beggar who was following him from afar. Then, he interrogated the beggar with a stern look on his face.
"Sir, you … you must have made a mistake! I just want to go back to the grass nest in front … "The beggar was also a clever person. However, he did not expect to meet a ruthless person like Ling Dong who could see through people's hearts!
Ling Dong knew very well what to do when encountering such a clever person!
With a 'shua' sound, the beggar, who was restrained by Ling Dong, let out a blood-curdling scream. However, after only one scream, his voice suddenly stopped. In this dark night, how could Ling Dong allow him to let out a blood-curdling scream?
"Who sent you? This time, I cut off your ears. Next time, I'll cut off your fingers!" Ling Dong said sinisterly!
That beggar subconsciously shook his head. Just as a sliver of fear seemed to rise in his eyes, Ling Dong's merciless Gang Qi was unleashed once again. The beggar's right arm began to twitch violently. There were now three more severed fingers on the ground!
"Don't worry, before I cut you into a human stick, I won't let you die! Next time, it will be your left arm, then your right arm, then your right eye. I'll slowly torture you to death … Are you going to talk or not? "Ling Dong's voice was very calm!
But the calm voice made the beggar smell the scent of extreme fear! The moment Ling Dong moved his fingers again, the beggar quickly nodded his head!
"I was sent by His Royal Highness, the Second Prince. I've been guarding the entrance of Kuixing Court for almost half a year!" The beggar was afraid that Ling Dong would cut him with Gang Qi again.
"What else?" Ling Dong squeezed his fingers lightly!
"Nothing else! The Second Prince only asked us to report back to him as soon as we found your whereabouts! "The beggar endured the pain and said.
Ling Dong nodded and did not ask any more questions. Ling Dong knew that a spy could only know so much!
However, Ling Dong did not understand why the Second Prince, Bi Jing, would secretly send someone to spy on him and inquire about him. Could it be that the Second Prince knew that he had joined forces with Feng Xuelei to assassinate Bi Pengfei?
After a short while, Ling Dong shook his head. If the Second Prince knew about this, the first thing he would do would be to wipe out the Feng Family. Moreover, the Ling Family would have been surrounded by the army of Yaoguang Kingdom.
It was not about that. Why was the Second Prince staring at Ling Dong so mysteriously?
He casually flicked his finger and killed the beggar. Then, he sent out a wisp of acquired spiritual fire and burned the beggar to ashes. After that, Ling Dong changed his appearance slightly and brought Liu Yaoguang, who was wearing a veil, to an inn!
After half an hour, Ling Dong brought Liu Yaoguang and entered the Seventh Prince Bi Ying's palace without any obstruction with a token. They completely disappeared from Yaoguang City!
When Ling Dong disappeared, the Second Prince, Bi Jing, who had just received the news and was ready to go all out, almost died from anger!
After a series of investigations, the Second Prince, Bi Jing, was almost certain that the Imperial Family's relic that he had sensed that night was on Ling Dong! Therefore, in the Second Prince's eyes, Ling Dong was almost the same as the Imperial Dragon Throne!
Finding Ling Dong meant that he could possibly become the Imperial Dragon Throne. It was no wonder that the Second Prince, Bi Ying, was so angry that he almost exploded!
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …!"
After smashing ten teacups, the Second Prince, Bi Jing, pointed at his guard leader and scolded, "Trash, all of you are a bunch of trash. A living person disappeared in the blink of an eye! Go and find him immediately. Send out all the guards in the palace to find him! But if you dare to leak any information, or if you can't find him, bring your heads to me! Bring your heads to me! "
The Second Prince's roar reverberated throughout the entire palace!
While the Second Prince, Bi Jing, was throwing a tantrum, Ling Dong had just been welcomed into the inner courtyard by the Seventh Prince, Bi Ying, and invited to a banquet! (To be continued.
