Chapter Seventy-Six: The Mission
The woman walked to the window, opened it, and looked out into the courtyard.
The silent and dark courtyard was empty.
"Well, how could anyone come to this cold palace? Maybe a person has lived here too long and has auditory hallucinations. Hey!"
The woman sighed and closed the window.
"Whew~~~ It's dangerous!"
Until the woman closed the window, Long Xiaotian lay on the ground and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Long Erha looked at Long Xiaotian blankly.
Long Erha couldn't understand why his master was afraid of women.
Long Xiaotian understood Long Erha's expression.
"Erha, you're a dog, you don't understand. β
When Long Erha heard this, his face was disdainful.
"Why? Don't believe me?"
Long Erha immediately nodded desperately.
"Hmph! You're just a stupid dog, you know a! β
Long Xiaotian didn't plan to stay here any longer and waste his time. Seeing that the sky was about to dawn, Long Xiaotian needed to escape from the palace as soon as possible.
Long Xiaotian took Long Erha and quietly left this deserted palace.
In the huge palace, Long Xiaotian soon got lost again.
The route that Long Xiaotian chose to get out of the palace was very simple, that is, to run in one direction all the time, and Long Xiaotian believed that he would definitely be able to run out.
But Long Xiaotian underestimated the size of the palace.
Because Long Xiaotian and Long Erha had to constantly avoid the patrols of the guards all the way, they couldn't escape quickly. However, Long Xiaotian was not in a hurry.
Long Xiaotian and Long Erha cooperated tacitly and escaped from the palace step by step.
After Long Xiaotian and Long Erha escaped from the palace, Long Xiaotian carried out a simple disguise and put on a black cloak to hide people's eyes and ears.
One man and one dog came to a small village outside the imperial capital to rest, quietly waiting for the main competition of the Alchemist Conference to arrive.
Because Li Yaoqian told him that no one should disturb Long Xiaotian's rest, the news of Long Xiaotian's departure was not discovered by the palace maids who came to clean until the next day.
Long Xiaotian disappeared, and the Shoukang Palace was immediately in chaos!
Li Yao got the news for the first time.
"What???!!! Long Gongzi is missing? Why are you on an errand? Come on! Execute all the guards who guarded Shoukang Palace last night!"
At this time, someone spoke out to stop Li Yao.
"Cousin, what are you doing so impulsively?"
"Cousin, why are you here?"
"I've heard that Long Gongzi disappeared into Shoukang Palace with Long Erha. β
"Cousin, now that you know, why did you stop me from killing?"
"Long Gongzi is a cultivator of the Mahayana realm. If Long Gongzi is determined to leave Shoukang Palace, where are these guards Long Gongzi's opponents?"
Princess Chaoyang's words made Li Yao calm down again.
"Cousin, do you think Long Gongzi left by himself, or was he taken away?"
"Eh~~~ With my understanding of Long Gongzi, he should have left by himself. β
"Why?"
"For fun!"
"Play?"
"Long Gongzi is a child's heart. After all, he is only 16 years old this year, which is the age of playfulness. β
"Hey, but what now? If the disappearance of Young Master Long is known to the ministers of the court and the big family of the imperial capital, my position may not be stable. After all, I am the king who was forcibly topped by the dragon prince, and my name is not right, and my words are not good. β
"Cousin, why are you so stupid?"
"Huh?!"
"Although Young Master Long has left the palace, I am sure that Young Master Long will participate in the Alchemist Conference, and it is very likely that he will participate in disguise. β
"Cousin, how can you be so sure?"
"Didn't Long Gongzi take the entry token for the main competition yesterday, if he didn't participate in the Alchemist Conference, why did he take the entry token?"
"My cousin is so carefulγγγγγγ! β
"Cousin, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you! Now Long Gongzi is in the shadows, but no one else knows, if you deliberately spread this news, those who want to harm you will definitely take action, and you can γγγγγγ β
"Catch them all!"
Speaking of this, a trace of violence flashed in Li Yao's eyes. The emperor has no relatives, and the king is ruthless. Li Yao has already made up his mind to keep his throne in the sea of corpses and blood. After all, the temptation to be a king is too great!
Li Yao deliberately ordered someone to "accidentally" spread the news of Long Xiaotian's disappearance.
In the imperial capital, there was a storm for a while, and the major forces were gearing up. Li Wudi's sons immediately began to take active action. A bloody battle for the throne is imminent!
At this juncture, the Water Moon Kingdom, which was connected to the Tianfu Kingdom, actually sent a grand delegation to watch the Alchemist Conference of the Tianfu Kingdom.
This time, leading the delegation of the Water Moon Country was the national teacher of the Water Moon Country, Nalan Qianlong, a genuine Yuan Shen Realm powerhouse.
Master Xuan, the only one in the Heavenly Mansion royal family, a powerhouse of the Yuan God Realm, died at the hands of Long Xiaotian a few days ago.
The fine work of the Water Moon Kingdom immediately used the sound transmission stone to transmit this information back to the country.
Originally, the Water Moon Kingdom wanted to take this good opportunity to eat the entire Tianfu Kingdom in one bite.
However, the details of Shuiyue Kingdom learned that Long Xiaotian's father turned out to be the city lord of Manghuang City, and now he has become the county guard of Tianliao County.
And the Reckless City and Tianliao County are the only way for the Water Moon Kingdom to attack the Tianfu Kingdom.
Offending a martial artist in the Mahayana realm is definitely not a wise move.
The king of the Water Moon Kingdom discussed with his ministers and decided to send an envoy to inquire about the information of the Tianfu Kingdom. If you can win over the martial artists who have reached the Mahayana realm, it would be great!
Over the years, Nalan Qianlong and Master Xuan have each been their own masters and have fought many times. Seeing that his old opponent for many years suddenly died tragically, and he didn't even leave a whole corpse, Nalan Qianlong's heart felt a burst of sadness.
Nalan Qianlong soon learned from the mouth of the fine work that Long Xiaotian killed the former king of the Tianfu Kingdom, Li Wudi, and supported Li Yao to ascend to the throne.
Nalan Qianlong immediately broke off his mind of wanting to annex the Tianfu Kingdom.
If Long Xiaotian just wanted to have a game, he would definitely not support Li Yao to sit in the position of the king of Tianfu Kingdom.
Therefore, offending Li Yao is tantamount to offending Long Xiaotian.
Then, Nalan Qianlong got the news that Long Xiaotian had disappeared from the palace for no reason.
"Lord Nalan, that's how it happened. Now in the imperial capital, people are panicking, and something big is about to happen in the future. β
"What a bunch of idiots!"
"Why did Lord Nalan say that?"
"This must be a plan jointly devised by Li Yao and Long Gongzi! Those stupid people can't even see such a simple thing, they deserve to be sent to death!"
"Lord Nalan, is this all a play?"
"That's right, this is a great opportunity from heaven!"
"What good chance?"
"As long as we help Li Yao, Young Master Long will definitely have a good impression of the Water Moon Kingdom. Haha! When the time comes, the rise of the Water Moon Kingdom is just around the corner!"
