Chapter 75, The Imperial Palace
The night was quiet, not even a hint of a breeze. From time to time, a few cries of gnats came out.
There was no light in the only room left in the Yang family. In a corner of the room, Xiao Yuebai was healing her master's work.
Master had suffered serious internal injuries. Who the hell hurt Master like this? But he didn't know.
Finally, after an afternoon of healing, the qi in Master's body finally began to swim away on its own. The hanging heart has also settled.
Soon Lian Qingzi regained consciousness. He pushed Xiao Yuebai away with his internal force, and then he was about to go out.
"Master, where are you going?" Xiao Yuebai chased after him.
But Lian Qingzi did not answer. He jumped and disappeared into the night sky. When Xiao Yuebai saw it, she hurriedly chased him out.
Although Xiao Yuebai's light skills are powerful, the other party is Lian Qingzi, although his internal injuries have not healed, but Master. No matter how hard Xiao Yuebai tried to catch up, she could only see the black shadow of the master. Fortunately, under Xiao Yuebai's full pursuit, he did not let the master disappear from his sight as before.
It didn't take long for Xiao Yuebai to follow his master to a brightly lit courtyard, and when he saw that his master had sneaked into this courtyard, he also hurried over there.
The closer he got to the "courtyard", the brighter it became, and the more frightened he became. For he saw that there were countless houses, all of them with red walls and yellow tiles, and that the roofs on the top of the hill were arranged in a very majestic manner. It seemed that the closer he approached, the more he was about to overwhelm him.
This is the Royal Palace!
Master would come here like this?Xiao Yuebai was puzzled.
If he wants to chase after the master, he doesn't care if the palace is in front of him.
He leaned on the roof of a backlit temple and looked around. The soldiers of the night patrol walked past him in a procession, and he didn't care. Suddenly, he looked at the temple in the distance, and saw a dark figure rising and falling. He expected that it was the master, and immediately chased after him.
The black shadow is indeed the master.
I saw Lian Qingzi walking and stopping in this labyrinthine palace, easily avoiding the soldiers patrolling the night.
Xiao Yuebai felt that the master seemed to know everything about the situation in the palace. He stared at the master carefully, and suddenly felt a white shadow floating towards the master from the side, as light as a wild goose.
Xiao Yuebai subconsciously looked over, only to see that the white shadow was walking lightly and rushed straight towards Lian Qingzi, and the master didn't notice it at all.
It's not good, Master was discovered. Xiao Yuebai was shocked. This person's kung fu must not be under the master.
Xiao Yuebai hurriedly rushed up, trying to stop the white shadow before he could attack his master. But Bai Ying's light skills made Xiao Yuebai out of reach. Seeing that Bai Ying lifted the willow leaf whip and slashed at the master, Xiao Yuebai not only shouted:
"Master, be careful. ”
Just when Xiao Yuebai thought that his master was about to be attacked, Lian Qingzi suddenly turned around and slapped his palm, and a strong storm gushed out, resisting in front of the willow leaf whip.
The lanterns in the courtyard immediately swayed, and the shadows of the lights were suffocating.
The white shadow seemed to be unable to resist and turned over and avoided Lian Qingzi's palm.
Xiao Yuebai's shouts quickly attracted the soldiers who were patrolling the night. Immediately there was agitation, and the soldiers soon surrounded the place.
Xiao Yuebai jumped to the master's side. He took a closer look at the appearance of the white shadow, and immediately recognized that this old man was the white-robed old Taoist he met in Black Wind Ridge City three years ago-Lian Xuzi.
Suddenly, Xiao Yuebai only heard Lian Qingzi shouting at Lian Xuzi:
"Big brother, are you okay?"
Xiao Yuebai was shocked, and looked at the master in surprise, only to see the anxiety in the master's eyes.
It turns out that this old Taoist is the master's eldest brother!
At this time, Lian Xuzi seemed to have been hit by Lian Qingzi's palm, and immediately crossed his legs on the ground, closed his eyes and started his work, without saying a word.
Xiao Yuebai thought to herself: This person is known as the city lord of "Northern Spirit City", look at his skills just now, he shouldn't be weak, how can he be so vulnerable?
As he pondered, the soldiers who had come to arrest them gathered more and more. Looking at the shape, Xiao Yuebai expected that he had made a big mistake just now.
At this time, the master and apprentice were already surrounded by water.
"Master, let's go. ”
He knew that the soldiers would pounce on him at the slightest command. It's not that he is worried that he and his master will be caught, but he doesn't want Master to go crazy and turn these soldiers into unjust souls under Master's hands.
Xiao Yuebai grabbed Master's arm and jumped up. And the master's eyes always fell on Lian Xuzi.
As for why Lian Xuzi couldn't beat the master, Xiao Yuebai later understood:
It's not that Lian Xuzi's kung fu is not as good as Lian Qingzi, but he also suffered internal injuries. And it was the master who injured him, and the two of them were both defeated. And the reason why he rashly shot at Lian Qingzi was because he expected Lian Qingzi's injury to be more serious than himself, but he never expected that Lian Qingzi had an apprentice to help heal his injuries, so he would naturally be better than himself.
Xiao Yuebai took the master away from the encirclement of the soldiers, and then ran towards the palace without stopping. When the two of them were flying over a temple, Lian Qingzi actually waved his sleeves and shook off Xiao Yuebai.
"You go back. Lian Qingzi said to Xiao Yuebai, and before Xiao Yuebai could refute it, he jumped up and continued to walk towards the depths of the palace.
Although Xiao Yuebai didn't know why his master had sneaked into the palace, he wouldn't leave his master alone no matter what. He continued to follow closely behind the master, all the way to the west.
At this time, Lian Xuzi felt two gusts of wind blowing from the top of his head, one after the other, so he immediately ended his healing and chased out.
However, it didn't take long for Xiao Yuebai to feel an air mass behind her approaching. He hurriedly adjusted his breath and fell to the ground to dodge. As soon as he landed, he saw that the glazed tiles of the palace in front of him were shattered and fell off with a bang. Immediately afterwards, a whip slashed down from the top of Xiao Yuebai's head......
