ps: I went to bed late last night and had a splitting headache. It was too slow to write. I’m afraid the next update won’t be timely.
The moon was high in the sky, and Prince Cheng's Mansion fell into a peaceful sleep.
The four men in black sneaked towards the palace silently, like four shadows, passing over the wall quickly and unnoticed.
Xu Huande fell to the ground and sighed helplessly.
He didn't expect that his dignified deputy commander of the Secret Guard Mansion would one day dress up as an assassin and pull off such a stunt. He really couldn't help but laugh.
But thinking about the Holy Sect of Light, he immediately put away his helplessness and now relied entirely on Chu Li to see if he could find the disciples of the Holy Sect of Light.
It is the top priority of the Secret Guard House to find out why the Holy Sect of Light came to the Capital of Gods, whether it was for an assassination or for something else.
The emperor has repeatedly asked about this matter, putting strong pressure on the Secret Guard Mansion.
If you can't figure this out, the Secret Guard Mansion is ashamed of its reliance on the emperor.
Among the secret guards of the Forbidden Palace, only Chu Li has the ability to find the disciples of the Holy Sect of Light, otherwise there would be no need to obey him and follow him around.
Chu Li must have both public and selfish motives for doing this.
Chu Li was rejected by Prince Cheng, and he would never accept this anger. He would definitely bring chaos to Prince Cheng's palace and take revenge.
"Who is it?" A low shout came from the flowers, and finally someone spotted the four of them.
Xu Huande said in a deep voice: "Withdraw!"
"There are assassins!" a guard shouted from another place, breaking the tranquility of Prince Cheng's Mansion.
Several figures rushed towards the four of them.
Xu Huande was followed by all the top players in the Secret Guard Mansion. The four of them joined forces, not seeking to hurt anyone but just to escape, and quickly rushed outside the manor.
In a short time, they were about to escape from the palace.
"Huh!" A deep shout sounded. Chen Kong stood on the roof, blocking their way, and looked at the four of them coldly: "Be bound and spare your lives. Chengwang's Mansion is not for you to come or leave whenever you want.
Wherever you go!”
Xu Huande said in a deep voice: "Get out of the way, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!"
After saying that, they rushed towards Chen Kong.
Three figures fell next to Chen Kong, and together with Chen Kong they faced Xu Huande and the other four, and the eight of them fought together in the blink of an eye.
Xu Huande and Chen Kong fought, and it was difficult to tell the difference between the two.
"Bang bang bang bang..." Amidst the muffled sounds, the two men launched more than twenty moves.
The other six people are also indistinguishable, they are all top players.
The elites of the palace are all here, trying to catch them. If they can't be caught this time, they may come again next time, which will cause endless trouble.
"Bang bang bang..." The sound of palm strikes shook the entire palace.
Everyone in Prince Cheng's Mansion huddled in the room knowingly, holding back their curiosity and not going out.
After a while, another man in black appeared and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"
"General Manager Chu!" Chen Kong shouted angrily.
Chu Li was dressed in black, with his face covered, and he chuckled: "Wrong person!"
"What are you doing here!" Chen Kong shouted angrily.
Chu Li smiled and said: "Let's see what is hidden in Prince Cheng's Mansion. If there is anything shameful, we are not allowed to enter the Mansion to check."
"You are so brave!" Chen Kong roared angrily: "Aren't you afraid that the prince will take part in your book?"
"We have given face to the prince, and the prince is really ignorant, so don't blame our Secret Guard Mansion for being unkind!" Chu Li snorted: "Let's go!"
He said that and walked away.
Xu Huande and the four of them also floated away.
Chen Kong waved his hand, indicating that the guards around him did not need to stop him anymore.
"Mr. Chen, just let them run away like this?" A guard whispered, and snorted unconvinced: "Especially that Chu Li, he is so crazy that he doesn't take our palace seriously!"
"Go and check to see if there is anything missing." Chen Kong hummed, "Also, see if anyone is injured?"
"...Yes." The guard knew that Chen Kong didn't want to pursue him anymore, so he could only agree.
Chen Kong looked at the direction where Chu Li and the others disappeared in the night sky, his brows furrowed.
He also had some doubts in his heart. Why was Chu Li so persistent in investigating the palace? Is there really a spy in the palace?
Chu Li and the other five returned to the Secret Guard Mansion. The lights in the Secret Guard Mansion were brightly lit.
When they came to the hall, the other three had already gone back, and Chu Li and Xu Huande entered the hall.
"How's it going?" Xu Huande, who was covered in black and had no time to take off his scarf, immediately asked, "Is there anyone from the Holy Light Sect?"
Master Chu Li said: "It really does!"
"several?"
"one."
"Go catch it immediately tomorrow!"
Chu Li said: "Invite Chen Kong here and explain it clearly to him. He must also understand what to do."
"Would he believe it?"
"After all, he is a disciple of the Guangming Holy Cult. He would rather believe that it exists. If he doesn't believe it, he should try it himself and he should be able to try it out."
"...I'm still worried." Xu Huande shook his head and said, "We'd better catch it ourselves."
Chu Li said: "I'm afraid it's going to be very troublesome. Prince Cheng's Mansion will deliberately look for trouble and cause stumbling blocks. Maybe they will let people go instead."
"Isn't that true?" Xu Huande frowned.
Chu Lidao: "What do you think King Cheng will do?... If I really want to let you in and capture the disciples of the Guangming Holy Cult, what did King Cheng do before? Arrogant and ignorant? Stupid?"
"His face is more important than the disciples of the Holy Sect of Light!" Xu Huande snorted.
Chu Li smiled.
Xu Huande was also shrewd and capable, his face darkened, thinking about Chu Li's words.
Cheng Wang can really do it.
Chu Li said: "They caught it by themselves, but the situation was different. Prince Cheng's Mansion did nothing wrong and saved face."
"I really didn't expect that," Xu Huande looked him up and down and shook his head: "You can still think about them."
"Public is public, private is private." Chu Li smiled and said, "I can still distinguish between public and private."
"...Okay, I'll talk to Commander Chen." Xu Huande was noncommittal.
He didn't believe that Chu Li could distinguish between public and private affairs.
If you can enter the Prince's Palace and capture the disciples of the Guangming Holy Cult, the Secret Guard Palace will gain face, your words will have more weight with the Emperor, and your future actions will be less constrained.
If Prince Cheng's Mansion is allowed to capture the disciples of the Holy Sect of Light, more than half of the achievements of the Secret Guard Mansion will be lost.
His location determines that he prefers the first option, which is to go directly to the door to catch people, subconsciously ignoring the risks.
Chu Li saw his thoughts clearly and chuckled: "Bring me a pen and ink."
Someone soon sent me pens, ink, paper and inkstones, which were already polished.
Chu Li drew a portrait in one go, which was lifelike.
He picked it up, blew it, and handed it to Xu Huande: "This should be the guard of Prince Cheng's Mansion."
Xu Huande glanced down and nodded, "Okay, I'll talk to Chen Kong tomorrow and ask him to catch someone."
Chu Li smiled and said, "I want to rest for a few days."
"...Okay." Xu Huande said solemnly: "If he is really a disciple of the Holy Sect of Light, then you have completed your mission and can rest for a while."
Chu Li said: "You will know as soon as you catch it."
Early the next morning, Chu Li was practicing the Heavenly Demon Kung Fu in the small courtyard. Manager Chu's voice came from outside: "General Manager, there are two secret guards of the Forbidden City outside asking to see you."
"Let them come over." Chu Li said.
Dong Qifei and Yang Zongwen came to the small courtyard.
They cupped their fists and saluted, their faces gloomy and ugly.
Chu Li glanced at the two of them and kept moving.
Dong Qifei couldn't hold back his words and said in a deep voice: "Captain, the man has escaped."
Chu Li stopped moving; "Run away?"
Dong Qifei gritted his teeth and said, "Prince Cheng's Mansion deliberately let people go!"
Chu Li looked at Yang Zongwen.
Yang Zongwen said: "Commander Xu took us to Prince Cheng's Mansion. As soon as he spoke to Chen Kong, someone escaped inside. It was exactly what we were looking for." (To be continued.)
