Chapter 584
Three days later, Xiao Chen and the others finally arrived at the gate of the Fire Spirit City.
There were still guards at the gate, but not as many as before. There were only a dozen of them. It was obvious that the higher-ups had ordered the removal of most of the guards.
When the guards saw the giant The Lion King, they immediately knew who was going to enter the city. When they saw the elegant and beautiful young lady sitting in front of Xiao Chen, they were shocked. They were the guards of the Fire Spirit City, so they naturally recognized the princess.
“The princess is back!
The princess has been saved by Childe Xiao Chen! ”
The guards cheered with joyful smiles on their faces. Then, they all knelt on one knee and said respectfully, “Welcome back, Your Highness!
Welcome back, Childe Xiao Chen! ”
“Rise, everyone. Thank you for your hard work.” Ouyang Chuchu displayed the dignity of a princess and said calmly.
“Thank you, Your Highness!
Long live the princess! ”
It was rare for the guards to see the noble and beautiful princess. Now, not only did they see her, but they also received a compliment from the princess. They immediately felt flattered and shouted, “Long live the princess!”
“Enter the city!” Xiao Chen was not used to and did not like the scene in front of him. He directly asked the Lion King to enter the city.
After entering the city, Xiao Chen had a headache. It was currently afternoon, and there were still four hours before nightfall. There were people coming and going in the city, and naturally, many of them saw the Lion King. When they saw the Lion King, they naturally saw Xiao Chen, and then they recognized the princess. As a result, the cheers went on and on, one after another, without end.
Xiao Chen was annoyed, so he secretly sent a message to the Lion King, “Da Huang!
Run!
Go to the palace! ”
“Roar!”
The Lion King, on the other hand, let out a lion’s roar that shook the entire Fire Spirit City, announcing his and Xiao Chen’s triumphant return in an awe-inspiring manner. He then ran straight for the palace.
The Lion King’s roar not only shook the Fire Spirit City, but also shocked the millions of people in the city. All the experts who were lying in ambush in the palace also learned of Xiao Chen’s return.
“The Lion King?!”
When Ouyang Tiande heard the lion’s roar, he pushed away the beautiful woman who was sitting on his thighs and stood up abruptly. His tiny eyes narrowed as he looked towards the direction of the city gate. After a while, he suddenly shouted, “Black Tiger!
Black Panther!
Black Bear!
Follow I to the Supreme Harmony Hall! ”
“Swish swish swish!”
Three black silhouettes shot over from afar, closely following Ouyang Tiande towards the entrance of the back garden, leaving behind an extremely beautiful woman with messy clothes. It seemed like Ouyang Tiande was in a good mood, staying in the back garden in broad daylight with an extremely beautiful woman, sitting in the evening pavilion.
In the New Moon Pavilion, Dongfang Qingwu sat on a chair in front of a desk in her room. She was flipping through a book that recorded medicinal herbs. However, how could she be in the mood to read?
Her absent-minded look made people feel pity for her.
“Pa!”
Hearing the Lion King’s roar, Dongfang Qingwu felt like she was electrocuted. Her body stiffened, and her expression froze. The book in her hand fell onto the table, making a crisp sound. This sound was clearly heard by Dongfang Qingwu.
“Ah?
Da Huang?
Big Brother Xiao is back. I want to see him and tell him not to come to the palace! ”
Dongfang Qingwu woke up and exclaimed. She suddenly stood up and rushed towards the door of the room.
“Pa!”
A similar sound came from the room next to Dongfang Qingwu’s. It was the sound of a porcelain teacup falling to the ground. Ouyang Yufeng didn’t even look at the broken teacup on the ground. She quickly stood up and secretly said, “Not good.” Her figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, she was out of the door. She happened to see Dongfang Qingwu rushing out of the door and running towards the stairs.
Ouyang Yufeng knew what Dongfang Qingwu wanted to do, but she knew that Dongfang Qingwu couldn’t leave the courtyard of the New Moon Pavilion. So she shouted, “Qingwu!
Stop! ”
“Ah?”
Dongfang Qingwu was shocked. She suddenly stopped and looked back. She saw Ouyang Yufeng’s serious face. She was stunned. After a while, she said anxiously, “Master!
Big Brother Xiao will come. I beg you, let Qingwu see Big Brother Xiao. I beg you! ”
“Ai!”
Ouyang Yufeng sighed before she spoke. She looked at Dongfang Qingwu, who had a face full of pleading, and said helplessly, “Qingwu, it’s not that Master doesn’t want you to see Xiao Chen. It’s that you can’t leave the New Moon Pavilion. Even if you do leave the courtyard, blood will definitely be spilled!
This is His Majesty’s order! ”
“Ah?
Sob sob … “When Dongfang Qingwu heard Ouyang Yufeng’s warning, she was stunned. She squatted down in despair and cried helplessly.
“No!
Qingwu can’t cry here. Qingwu has to warn Big Brother Xiao. Even if I have to die … ”
Suddenly!
Dongfang Qingwu stood up abruptly. She cried as she frantically rushed up the stairs. However, she had only taken a few steps when a knifehand struck the sleeping acupuncture point at the back of her head. Her body slowly went limp and was about to fall to the ground.
Ouyang Yufeng stretched out her hands and hugged Dongfang Qing Wu who was about to fall to the ground. She tenderly looked at Dongfang Qing Wu whose face was full of tears and helplessly said, “Qing Wu, don’t blame Master for being heartless, and don’t blame Master for not helping you. Master is also powerless. His Majesty is not like what he looks like on the surface. His heart is as hard as stone, and he is vicious and merciless. Once his interests are threatened, even if I am his sister, he will not show any mercy and will even kill me!”
Ouyang Yufeng carried the unconscious Dongfang Qingwu into the room. She placed her on the bed and covered her with a quilt. She looked at her lovingly and then left the room. She walked to the balcony of the attic and looked at the distant Supreme Harmony Hall. She muttered to herself, “Xiao Chen, later when you enter the palace, whether you can survive or not will depend on your life.
“Xiao Chen, when you enter the palace, whether or not you can leave the palace alive will depend on how tough your life is. I’m a member of the Ouyang Clan, I can’t help you, and I can’t help you either. Regardless of whether or not you can escape this calamity, I’ll take good care of your woman, Dongfang Qingwu. I won’t let her suffer any harm. This is the only thing I can do for you, sigh …”
In fact, even if The Lion King didn’t roar, when Xiao Chen and The Lion King just appeared at the city gate, they had already been discovered by the high-level scouts hiding in the nearby tall buildings. The scouts naturally used all kinds of communication methods to send the news of Xiao Chen’s return to the palace immediately. To ensure that nothing went wrong, they asked the experts in the palace to enter the ambush state and wait for the two big fishes, Xiao Chen and The Lion King.
At this moment, all the Purple Elephant Realm experts in the palace, especially those above the Purple Elephant Realm, had all moved. According to the ambush practice for the past three days, they were in their respective positions and entered the ambush state, especially in and around the main hall. All the Celestial Phenomenon Realm and Dragon Elephant Realm experts were lying in ambush. As for whether there were Earth Dragon Realm and Heaven Dragon Realm experts lying in ambush, it was still unknown.
In addition, the experts from the Heaven Mystics Kingdom and the North Dark Kingdom had not arrived at the Fire Spirit City yet. It was unknown if they could arrive in time. If they waited for a period of time or after the battle in the palace ended, it would be too late. Perhaps, they would only see one side’s corpse.
Ambush from ten sides!
