Chapter 258: The Situation in Chang'an
Inside the stone cave of Daci Temple
Crazy Iron lowered his head and said nothing, and Marco Polo did not speak. There was another woman sitting in the cave. The woman was dressed in a tight-fitting black leather coat and a black-gold cloak, her cold and noble face was bloodless, and the most striking thing was the blindfold of her right eye.
Queen of Haidu, Milady. Her arrival made both Marco Polo and Crazy Iron nervous. Especially Crazy Iron, in the face of the dictatorial queen, he dared not speak out. He is her slave and obeys her commands. Even in Chang'an, if the queen let him die, he could only find a lake to jump off immediately.
"What's the situation in Chang'an now?" Milady's haughty voice rang out.
Crazy Iron looked at Marco Pineapple, not knowing how to answer. Ever since he was injured in Daci Temple, he has been living in a cave and has not been able to go anywhere. As for what it looks like outside, it's even more unclear.
Marco Pineapple saw the panicked look of the mad iron, and decided to report it himself.
"Back to Her Majesty, there are all kinds of people in Chang'an City now, and it is not easy to deal with. Three of us were unfortunately killed, and we were weak at this time. Fortunately, there is no sign of the Cloud Breaking Hall opening yet, so we still have a chance. Marco Polo carefully informed Miledi of the situation.
"It's useless! I originally hoped that you would come to Chang'an sooner and get rid of those useless people! I didn't expect you to become garbage?! It really doesn't work! Now with the two of you, still want to enter the Cloud Breaking Palace? What wishful thinking! Milady was furious. Angela, Arthur and Athena were cleaned up before they even entered the Cloud Breaking Palace, what is the difference between heroes and garbage at this level? She was very dissatisfied, even angry.
Madiron heard Milady call him rubbish, and his angry teeth snapped. He was even more angry that Athena came to Chang'an thousands of miles away for the sake of Haidu, and Athena's death not only did not make Milady feel nostalgic, but he could only be scolded with disdain, and a trace of hatred was born in Crazy Iron's heart.
Marco Polo didn't react much when he heard Miledi's words. Miledi was a cold and mean woman, and it was not unusual for her to say these things. It's just that he doesn't know what Milady thinks, is it just scolding him and mad iron to get angry? It's a bit too boring.
"Right now, we can only unite the forces of other people and join hands to enter the Cloud Breaking Palace." Milady commanded with a calm face. She has some understanding of the general situation in Chang'an. Chang'an is led by Di Renjie as a force, and Di Renjie is now joining forces with Ming Shiyin to try to seize the opportunity. On the other side, the people of the Great Wall roam the city every day with nothing to do, and there is no sense of urgency at all. There are also people from the Jixia Academy who have their own power, and they will not join forces with them.
Thinking about it, there are only a few other abilities in Chang'an City, if she can gather them and join Haidu, then she has a better chance of winning.
"You two don't stay in the cave, go to the streets of Chang'an City, look for other abilities, it's best to bring them back!" We need to expand our capabilities now! Milady commanded from above. Time is of the essence, and it is necessary to find the right person as soon as possible. She vaguely felt that the oppressive aura on the Cloud Breaking Hall was getting heavier and heavier.
"Yes." Marco Pineapple bowed her head in response.
Since it was the queen's order, then he and Crazy Iron had to do it. As for who to find to join them and become allies? Marco Polo remembered two people, there were two people who had just entered Chang'an last night, maybe these two were objects that could be wooed.
Outside the palace gate of the Emperor's Palace, the expressions of those guards were very cold, and it was strangely cold.
The reason why it became like this was because of Ming Shiyin's mysterious magic. Di Renjie walked with heavy steps, he came out of the emperor's harem all the way, watching the living soldiers gradually turn into walking corpses. But he knew that those soldiers were not dead, but were only manipulated by Ming Shiyin's illusion, and Di Renjie acquiesced.
Di Renjie didn't want the news of the empress's death to leak out, and the current Chang'an was in turmoil. Only in this way can he keep the empress's death from being known and maintain the precarious peace at the moment. He knew that the matter of the Cloud Breaking Hall was getting closer and closer, and it needed to be resolved more quickly. Maybe when he destroys the existence of that desire, the order of this world can be restored. Di Renjie was looking forward to it in his heart.
Ming Shiyin saw that Di Renjie didn't say a word on the road, although he didn't say anything, but he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
"Out of the Emperor's Harem, where are you going?" Ming Shiyin thought about it and asked. He wanted to know Di Renjie's next actions and arrangements.
"I'm going back to the Hidden Temple." Di Renjie wanted to go back to the Wuyin Temple, and he remembered that in his room in the Wuyin Temple, he painted all the portraits on the Linglong Pagoda. And if General Su had gone to Wuyin Temple as agreed, he should have gone to Wuyin Temple. If he showed those things to General Su, maybe he would be able to enter the Cloud Breaking Hall first.
"Why don't you go back to my mansion? Is my house much more comfortable than living in a broken temple? Ming Shiyin frowned, he didn't guess why Di Renjie wanted to go back to Wuyin Temple for a while. Isn't there something to hide from him?
"I can't get used to living in your house." Di Renjie refused very simply. "By the way, you said earlier that the empress's delicate dragon is locked in your hand?" Di Renjie seemed to remember something.
He remembered that the old general Su had mentioned the empress's exquisite lock, that thing had an effect on opening the Cloud Breaking Palace, but to really open the Cloud Breaking Palace, it still needed the soul absorbing bead of the Yunmeng Zedong God.
"Yes, with the Linglong lock, we will be able to open the temple door." The joy that could not be hidden in Ming Shiyin's words.
Although it is said that entering the Cloud Breaking Hall is the first step, as long as you can enter the Cloud Breaking Hall first, you can be regarded as having the first opportunity. It's a pity that Ming Shiyin was bound by the mandate of heaven this time and was not allowed to enter the hall. This made him very dissatisfied, but Ming Shiyin also thought about it, although he couldn't enter the Cloud Breaking Palace, his apprentice Yi Xing could.
In the future, letting Yi Xing be his eyes and staring at Di Renjie in the Cloud Breaking Hall can be regarded as a good way. Ming Shiyin's heart was very anxious, he was so eager for the power of the cloud crystal in the Cloud Breaking Palace, but he was turned away, and this kind of tangled pain made him very difficult.
Di Renjie heard Ming Shiyin's words and nodded. He knew the role of the Linglong Lock, and the next thing he wanted was the Soul Sucking Bead of Yunmeng Zedong God. When he put the soul sucking bead on the tip of the Linglong Tower, sucked out the small secret box of the mechanism, and then opened the secret box, the Cloud Breaking Hall was completely opened.
As for what would be in the Cloud Breaking Palace, he had no idea or imagined!
