Chapter 755: Wu Ling is Not in the Crown Prince East Palace?
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Cheng Guang entered the Great Zhou Imperial Palace without drawing the attention of the powerful figures from Heaven Mountain Palace, Long Sword Sect, Monkey Sect, or Turtle Defense Sect.Initially, Cheng Guang’s cultivation level was not low.
Among the strong individuals from Heaven Mountain Palace, Long Sword Sect, Monkey Sect, and Turtle Defense Sect, even if there were Sky-Men among them, detecting Cheng Guang’s presence was not easy.
At most, they could only infer someone had entered the Great Zhou Imperial Palace through the dimensional fluctuations produced when Cheng Guang entered.
Even so,
It was unclear who had entered the Great Zhou Imperial Palace.
...
Ordinary Sky-Men were completely unable to capture Cheng Guang’s aura.
After entering the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, Cheng Guang soon arrived at the Crown Prince East Palace and began searching for Wu Ling.
Cheng Guang searched around in Wu Ling’s Crown Prince East Palace but did not see Wu Ling.
Inside the Crown Prince East Palace, there were not only no traces of Wu Ling, but there were also no eunuchs and Palace Maids to be seen.
“Wu Ling isn’t in the Crown Prince East Palace??”
“Where did she go?”
“Did she go out temporarily?”
Cheng Guang frowned in confusion, puzzled as he muttered to himself, and then couldn’t help but shake his head, “Impossible. If Wu Ling had gone out temporarily, the eunuchs and the Palace Maids wouldn’t have left either.”
Cheng Guang remembered the low-headed, hurried eunuchs and Palace Maids he had seen on the road whose direction was not toward the Crown Prince East Palace, but rather toward Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace.
Speaking of Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace,
Since Cheng Guang had transferred, the first time he entered the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, he had visited Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace and met with Empress Dowager Li, and then he had never visited her Sleeping Palace again nor seen Empress Dowager Li often.
Previously, when he came to the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, he usually just visited Wu Ling’s Crown Prince East Palace and then returned to Duke Zhen’s Mansion.
“Could Wu Ling be in Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace right now?”
Such a thought arose in Cheng Guang’s mind.
Cheng Guang immediately stood up and walked toward Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace.
In no time, Cheng Guang arrived at Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace.
Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace was livelier than Cheng Guang had imagined.
Around the Sleeping Palace, in the gardens and pavilions, it was crowded with people.
There were attendants, Palace Maids, eunuchs, and many disciples and elders from Heaven Mountain Palace, Long Sword Sect, Monkey Sect, and Turtle Defense Sect.
It was a stark contrast to the desolate, empty Crown Prince East Palace.
Cheng Guang strolled above Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace, surveying the crowd below, searching for Wu Ling.
He was also looking for Empress Dowager Li and others.
Inside Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace, there were no individuals except for a few elders of unknown sects sitting on chairs, discussing something.
The spot originally occupied by Empress Dowager Li was now taken by an elder in a black robe.
Where is Empress Dowager Li?
Is she not here?
Cheng Guang’s brows furrowed slightly, and again he released his Primordial Spirit, examining the surroundings.
Cheng Guang had not wanted to release his Primordial Spirit initially to check because there was still a possibility of being detected by some cultivation adept.
Cheng Guang still preferred to proceed cautiously.
But now,
Unable to find anyone, Cheng Guang could no longer care about that.
Additionally, after scanning around, Cheng Guang had a rough understanding of the strengths of these sects’ powerhouses.
Cheng Guang did not believe that just the people from Heaven Mountain Palace, Long Sword Sect, Monkey Sect, and Turtle Defense Sect here could do anything to him.
Even if his Primordial Spirit exploration was detected by the powerhouses from Heaven Mountain Palace, Long Sword Sect, Monkey Sect, and Turtle Defense Sect, they would not be a match for him alone.
Cheng Guang released his Primordial Spirit, which rippled and spread out to the surroundings.
As Cheng Guang released his Primordial Spirit, taking Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace as the center, he explored the surrounding area.
Inside Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace,
Several people sitting and discussing something all sensed something.
Their conversation paused abruptly.
Everyone vigilantly looked around.
However, the sensed aura disappeared quickly, leaving not a trace.
It seemed as though the aura they had detected was merely an illusion.
“What’s going on? Did I feel someone around us?”
“Or another Sky-Man?”
“I don’t know, I just felt it.”
Inside Empress Dowager Li’s Sleeping Palace, the group of strong individuals looked at each other.
The elder in black robes sitting in the chief seat frowned slightly, then shook his head, “I also sensed it, but that aura appeared for a moment and then vanished quickly.”
“Even I couldn’t catch it.”
“It’s probably that person from Heaven Mountain Palace.”
“Just now, the restriction I set around the Imperial Palace also fluctuated.”
When the black-robed elder spoke, the brows of the seated strong individuals all furrowed slightly, and their expressions darkened.
“Heaven Mountain Palace.”
“These people clearly agreed that our sects would act together, pushing the Great Zhou Imperial Family to move against that suddenly appearing Chang’an City, and now look at how it turned out. We have been the only ones working, while the people from Heaven Mountain Palace haven’t shown up or exerted any effort. Now, they won’t even make an appearance.”
“If you ask me, we should just stop bothering with Heaven Mountain Palace. Even if the man from Heaven Mountain Palace is powerful, he couldn’t possibly stand against us.”
