The guards around the palace all showed respectful expressions when they saw these people, these were all immortal cultivators of the Jiang royal family, and in their eyes, they were all powerful people, and the official positions they were given were also extremely prominent.

Although the Jiang royal family is also a family of monks, the emperors who sit on the throne have always been mortal children who have no mana, and the real controllers of the royal family, that is, the high-ranking monks of the family, are mostly hidden behind the scenes, and they will not show their faces.

And the royal worshippers are specially sent by the clan to protect the imperial power.

This is also the practice of all mortal realms on the Zhongtian Continent, no one knows why, but there are also rumors that once the monk sits on the throne, then the country's luck will gradually decrease.

The theory of luck has always been ethereal and unpredictable, but even the rumored major sects that control the Zhongtian Continent have always attached great importance to it, not to mention ordinary monk families.

At the same time, outside the city of Nanlu, a faint light pierced the sky and fell into a dense forest outside the city, flickering a few times before disappearing.

Then, two figures flashed out of the dense forest at a rapid speed and galloped away in the direction of Nanlu City.

After a while, two figures quietly landed on an unattended city wall in Nanlu City, and looked inside, it was Liu Ming and Scorpion.

"This is Nanlu City, huh, it's so late, why is it so lively over there?" Scorpion glanced at the city a few times, and suddenly looked in the direction of the brightly lit palace.

"That should be in the direction of the Imperial Palace in Nanlu City. Liu Ming said with a slight twinkle in his eyes.

The map he bought in Tongyangfang City showed the layout of Nanlu City in detail, but it was indeed strange that it was lit up in the middle of the night.

With a sweep of his divine sense, he suddenly found that there were many armor soldiers in the palace. It seems that there are also fluctuations in the mana of the Crystallization Stage Cultivator, which is obviously really abnormal......

Liu Ming pressed his hand in the void. He whispered the incantation in his mouth, and black ripples spread out from his eyes again. After a while, he snorted coldly and said:

"That Thousand Illusions Demon should be hiding in that palace, it seems that he wants to help the riots in this mortal capital this time, to avoid our pursuit. ”

"Master, I remember that the rules of the Taiqing Sect stipulate that monks are not allowed to interfere too much with the order of the mortal world, is it appropriate for us to go over like this?" said the scorpion with some concern.

"It's okay, I've roughly locked down the location of the Thousand Illusion Demon, just find him out. I think that the royal family of Jiang Kingdom will not condone this evil cultivator to hide in the palace so grandly. Liu Ming smiled slightly, and then the black qi on his body flashed, and he flew towards the palace with the scorpion.

In the hexagonal palace of the palace, the middle-aged man in a bright yellow brocade robe transformed by a thousand illusions and demons was half-lying on a soft chair, his expression was sluggish, and his face showed a trace of abnormal blue and black.

Standing beside the soft chairs were several Jiang Guo monks in bright red robes, and one of them, a tall old man with a gray beard, emitted a beam of white light from the tip of one finger, and was patrolling back and forth above the body of the Thousand Illusion Demons. After a while, he frowned and asked:

"Jiang Li, have you ever seen the appearance of the person who hurt you?"

"Back to ...... Back to the Great Elder, I was also awakened in my sleep by a strange movement, and the room was completely dark. I could only faintly see a hazy black shadow, extremely fast, and he casually struck a black light on me. I didn't know anything after that. "Jiang Li, who was transformed by a thousand illusions and demons, said with a very weak look.

Several monks next to him glanced at each other when they heard this, and their eyes showed doubts. But none of them spoke.

As soon as the white light in the hands of the tall old man was collected, wisps of blue and black qi steamed up from the head of "Jiang Li". The blue and black color on his face also subsided, and he looked a lot better.

The tall old man glanced at "Jiang Li" up and down, and then took out a jade bottle from his body, poured out a pill and let him take it.

"It's just an ordinary carrion poison, I've already expelled the poison, as long as I rest for a while, I will soon recover. The tall old man said lightly.

"Thank you, Great Elder!" Jiang Li said with sincere fear.

The tall old man waved his hand casually, and then ignored the mortal emperor, and after glancing at the other worshippers, they all walked out of the room.

"What do you think about this?"

After a few people left the room, the tall old man shook his sleeves, released a soundproof barrier to envelop several people inside, and asked.

"This assassin is obviously also a monk, no matter what his cultivation is, the other party should not really want to take Jiang Li's life, otherwise he would have died a thousand times a mortal. A young man with golden hair said slowly, and his tone was not at all polite to Emperor Jiang.

It is no wonder that the monk community has always had a downspun attitude towards mortals with short lifespans and weak strength, even if Jiang Li is the king of a country, he will not be an exception.

"This is obvious, what is the purpose of the other party's move? Is it to warn our Jiang family? Because of the matter of the Huilongyu quota, our Jiang family has indeed offended a lot of forces over the years......" It was a young woman who spoke, and the wide offering robe could not hide her graceful figure.

"No matter what the reason, Jiang Li is the nominal emperor of Jiang State, and since the family has arranged for us to be the position of the imperial family's worship, we can't let him have an accident. In the past few days, a few of us have worked hard, and we have all stayed here, and we have to ensure that there are people by his side to protect him every day, and we have indeed been a little too negligent in the past few years. The tall old man waved his hand, interrupted the young woman's words, and said in a deep voice.

Hearing the old man's words, the young woman's face sank, and she seemed to be a little dissatisfied.

The blond young man winked at him, and the young woman's face changed for a while, and finally she nodded reluctantly.

A black-faced man standing next to him like an iron tower did not speak from beginning to end, but listened quietly.

In the inner room, the Thousand Illusions and Demons were still lying on the soft chairs, with a weak look on their faces, their eyes glancing towards the outside of the palace, and the depths of their eyes flashed strangely.

Then he closed his eyes, as if sensing something.

"Sure enough, I chased after him. It's hateful!If it weren't for Zuo Gongquan's shrinking hands and feet, which caused damage to my spiritual sea, why hide here!" The Thousand Illusion Demon opened his eyes and thought hatefully.

At this moment, a huge and extremely powerful spiritual pressure fell from the sky unscrupulously, enveloping the entire palace in it at once.

The spiritual pressure is cold and piercing, and anyone can feel the unkindness of the people.

Outside the hexagonal palace, the tall old man and the other four people only felt that their bodies were sinking, and the tall old man hurriedly changed his hands like wheels, and his body barely stabilized with a flash of red light, while the other three people couldn't move.

The young woman who had cultivated to the weakest level was almost on her knees.

Just as a few people were looking at each other, a black figure descended from the sky and landed high in the sky outside the Hexagonal Palace.

At this time, the armor soldiers around the palace were already lying on the ground, showing a semi-comatose state, they were just ordinary mortal soldiers, and they were able to die without directly exploding in such a huge spiritual pressure, a big reason was that the people who came deliberately let go.

The tall old man's face was extremely ugly, as a monk in the crystallization stage, he could better understand the horror of the people who came, but among the people present, his cultivation was the highest, and he couldn't hide from it.

He could only grit his teeth, pinch the trick with one hand, fly down a few feet away from the black figure, bow down and salute:

"The younger Jiang royal family worships Jiang Qing, but I don't know that the seniors are here, and I can't welcome them from afar, and I hope to forgive my sins!"

This person has reached the mid-stage cultivation of crystallization, and he is also a figure in the clan, although he can't see Liu Ming's accurate cultivation, but his knowledge is naturally far from being comparable to the other three, so after sensing this suffocating and powerful spiritual pressure, they know that the other party's strength is not something they can resist at all.

The other three also woke up from a dream and hurriedly bowed after the old man.

The black figure was wrapped in a faint black mist, which looked very mysterious, and its face could not be seen clearly because of the black mist, but the tall old man and the other four people all felt a cold gaze swept over.

The four of them only felt a slight chill in their bodies, and suddenly fell silent.

"I am a disciple of the Taiqing Sect. The person who came was naturally Liu Ming, his eyes swept over the four of them, and he said lightly.

"It turned out to be the predecessor of the Taiqing Sect, I waited for the politeness, I don't know what the seniors are going to come to my Jiang Kingdom Palace, what is the matter?" The tall old man immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Liu Ming report that he was a monk of the Taiqing Gate.

As one of the four great Taizong of the human race, the Taiqing Sect has strict precepts, and the disciples in the door are naturally not murderous.

"I've been tracking down this place in order to catch an evil monk. Liu Ming's gaze fell on the hexagonal palace behind the four of them, and said indifferently.

In his senses, the Thousand Illusion Demons were hiding in this palace.

"Evil monk?" the four of them were all stunned when they heard this, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

When the tall old man saw the direction of Liu Ming's gaze, his face changed even more, and he hurriedly swept away the Divine Consciousness Palace, and only breathed a sigh of relief after a while.

In addition to Jiang Li, the mortal emperor, there were only a few palace maids in the palace, and there were no others lurking.

"Senior, this place is the dormitory of Emperor Jiang of my country, and now there are only a few palace maids in it, and I am afraid that there is no evil cultivator that my predecessor is looking for. The tall old man showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and after a slight hesitation, he did not let go of his figure.

The young woman and the other three glanced at the tall old man, their faces were a little pale, but they didn't say anything.

"Emperor, I see, it's interesting. You guys stand down, I'm looking for this Emperor Jiang Guo, if I'm not mistaken, he's the evil cultivator I'm looking for. Liu Ming's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he chuckled a few times.

"What? This is impossible, I have personally examined Jiang Li's body just now, and he has no mana on his body, just a mere mortal. By the way, today I Jiang Guo Palace infiltrated an assassin and injured him, the evil cultivator that the predecessors are looking for, could it be that assassin?" the tall old man was stunned, and hurriedly replied in disbelief.
