Yue Mingxi had a special status. Although he was a member of the Jianghu, the Moko Cult behind him was the Holy Cult of the Northern Qi Dynasty, which was extremely powerful in the court. Seeing his repeated requests, the guard thought for a while and had no choice but to turn around and walk into the courtyard again.
However, the guard only walked through the first door and stopped in front of the second door. Through the thick door panel, he called out: "Miss Taoye, Protector Yue refused to leave. He said that there was something extremely important. He must
Report it to the empress in person, can you please invite him in?"
As a foreigner, even if he is a guard, he does not dare to see Su Zhilan without permission. He may be punished at least, or beheaded at worst.
In fact, if Su Zhilan was not too favored and was afraid that she would retaliate if she really delayed the matter, if she were an ordinary concubine, the guard could directly refuse the foreign man's request without asking for permission.
After a while, Xiao Taoye's angry voice sounded from behind the door: "Is it over yet? Didn't I tell you that apart from Your Majesty, I won't see any men, not to mention the Moon Protector, even the Sun Protector will be useless!"
The guard's mouth twitched, knowing that the person inside had made up his mind, so he stopped asking for trouble and returned to the door with a belly full of anger. He held his breath and said: "Guardian Yue, go back. The queen doesn't see anyone, don't let me
It’s so embarrassing!”
Yue Mingxi was about to open his mouth when he found that the guard had a stern look on his face, and several other guards were also a little impatient. These people were all the guards around the Northern Qi Emperor, and all of them had the strength of great masters.
not good.
After weighing the pros and cons, Yue Mingxi had no choice but to bow his hands to several people and turn around to leave.
He couldn't help but feel uneasy because he couldn't get the job done, but he thought that Zhuo Mufeng had also ordered another thing. As long as it could be done, that kid wouldn't do anything to him.
However, this time he directly deceived the great elder! Thinking of the difficulty of the matter, Yue Mingxi tightened his tight robe. It was obviously early summer, but his body felt a little cold.
Around the end of Haishi, the party in the hall ended, and the bosses from all parties returned to their own courtyards.
Lu Kuang, as one of the top ten super masters in the world, has profound skills that can only be described as unpredictable. The few kilograms of wine he drank tonight had no effect on him.
Not long after he entered the large courtyard where he lived alone, Lu Kuang was about to take off his clothes and rest when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Yue Mingxi? It's so late, what is that guy doing here?
More than ten meters away, Lu Kuang had already sensed the identity of the visitor and couldn't help but frown slightly. But he knew Yue Mingxi and knew that if that guy didn't have anything important to do, he wouldn't be able to disturb him. After thinking about it, he sent a message: "
The door is open, come in."
The door opened, Yue Mingxi stepped in, closed the door carefully, and came to the door of the room with a respectful look. Lu Kuangzheng stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, looking down at him. Under the moonlight, his old and slender face gave people an extremely deep look.
pressure.
Yue Mingxi's heart trembled. Perhaps it was because he had accumulated prestige for a long time. Faced with the Great Elder's gaze, most of the confidence he had gathered when he came suddenly collapsed. If he hadn't been relatively experienced, he might have been exposed right now.
"I've met the Great Elder." Yue Mingxi told himself to be calm and collected. For the sake of his life and future, at this moment, he had almost used up all his willpower and energy in his life.
Lu Kuang glanced at him from top to bottom and asked lightly: "What's wrong with you coming here late at night?"
What he was going to say next would completely change Yue Mingxi's fate. Now was the only chance to regret it. But Yue Mingxi asked himself, he had no way out. If he didn't do it, that bastard Zhuo Mufeng would definitely tell what happened to He Ping.
Bite the bullet, Yue Mingxi secretly gritted his teeth and said through a message: "Great Elder, I went out to purchase supplies today and found the Demonic Emperor Pearl in a store!"
After saying that, he lowered his head and looked at the ground, otherwise he was afraid that he would be too nervous and appear abnormal.
After hearing no response for a long time, Yue Mingxi's heart was beating faster and faster. He felt that the silence around him was a bit scary, and the air seemed to have solidified, becoming heavier than a lead block. It made his chest feel tight, and his shoulders and back also felt uncomfortable.
It's like carrying a huge mountain, and I can barely stand on my feet.
"What did you say? Yue Mingxi, you have to take responsibility for what you say. I am not a fool, and not everyone can be fooled. You cannot afford the consequences!"
After waiting for a long time, Lu Kuang's voice finally sounded in his ears. It was so cold and powerful. But Yue Mingxi was keenly aware that there was a hint of trembling in the other person's voice.
This greatly reduced Yue Mingxi's pressure. The elder who was incomparable in his heart did not seem to be so perfect.
Sure enough, all humans have weaknesses, and the Demon Emperor Pearl is the fatal weakness of this group of super masters who have been practicing for ten years and cannot make any progress!
He is the third protector of the Moko Sect and an absolute confidant. Otherwise, he would not have come here this time. I am afraid that even Lu Kuang would not have thought that he would dare to deceive him. In this case, how could he not be tempted?
For a big shot like this, the more he cares about something, the more he tries to suppress it. The long silence before has betrayed Lu Kuang's heart.
Yue Mingxi's thoughts were unexpectedly active, and he felt less nervous in his heart. He raised his head resolutely, cupped his hands and said, "Elder, Mingxi will never dare to deceive you, old man!"
The two looked at each other, Yue Mingxi's back was hairy and his pores were dilated, trying hard to act loyal.
After looking at him for a while, Lu Kuang squinted his eyes: "As far as I know, you are not cultivating the Nine Heavens of Purple Luo. How can you confirm that what you see is the Demon Emperor Pearl? What's more, what a divine object the Demon Emperor Pearl is, you buy something
Can you see it?"
Yue Mingxi: "To be honest with the elder, Mingxi is not sure that it is the Demon Emperor's Pearl, but its shape and appearance are very consistent with the relevant records in the sect. As for the doubts mentioned by the elder, Mingxi believes that the Demon Emperor's Pearl is just in the world.
It is a sacred object, but ordinary people in the market do not know how precious it is. Even if they get it, they will probably regard it as a rare ornament.
Today, when Mingxi went to buy pastries for Concubine Lan, she happened to discover something. After over and over again, she still felt that she must report the matter to the great elder truthfully."
If it were an ordinary person, Yue Mingxi might have been fooled by Yue Mingxi when it came to the Demon Emperor Pearl, but Lu Kuang was also scheming, and his eyes became sharper and more terrifying, even with a bit of murderous intent, which made Yue Mingxi's scalp numb.
Lu Kuang smiled brightly: "I remember, you were the one who went to buy supplies a few times before. Why didn't you notice it at the time? Could it be that the store changed today? If so, the other two people should have seen it, right? You didn't report it to me until now, haha
, isn’t it too late?”
Old fox, you are so thoughtful!
Yue Mingxi cursed secretly, but fortunately he had a rough idea. He couldn't help admiring Zhuo Mufeng at this moment. He didn't expect that boy to predict the elder's reaction so accurately.
Yue Mingxi paused for a moment and glanced at Lu Kuang. This guy was really good at acting, and his face turned red: "I don't dare to hide it from the elder, we still went to the same family. But, but..."
As he spoke, he looked like he was risking his life, and told all the dirty things about how he got into the mood, left Zhang Dejia and Zhao Youcheng, rushed into the food restaurant to have fun with the proprietress, and finally saw the Demon Emperor Pearl in her boudoir.
Lu Kuang was dumbfounded when he heard this, and looked at Yue Mingxi with a slightly demented look, his eyes straightened. Of course, he had also heard of Yue Mingxi's lustful reputation, and knew how ridiculous this guy was in private, and he had no idea about this kind of thing.
Suspect.
Most of them still can't believe it. Is everything really destined? No one else could find the Demon Emperor Pearl no matter how hard they looked for it, but this bastard made a fool of himself and discovered it by accident?
Lu Kuang suppressed his heartbeat and spoke sternly: "Yue Mingxi, you'd better not lie to me! Since you think it's the Demon Emperor Pearl, why don't you bring it back?"
Yue Mingxi: "If you don't believe it, Great Elder, you can ask Zhang Dejia and Zhao Youcheng. As for why you didn't bring back the Demon Emperor Pearl, Great Elder, didn't you say that the Demon Emperor Pearl can react with people who have practiced supreme martial arts? In the Fei Waterfall Pavilion
There are so many people, I'm afraid..."
In fact, when Lu Kuang said this, he already believed 80% of it. Seeing Yue Mingxi's vow, he completely dispelled his suspicion.
You just went out to verify it, and there was no danger. There was no need for the other party to lie to you.
Lu Kuang was completely anxious, and a fierce divine light bloomed in his turbid eyes. Thinking of the past when he was injured by Yan Yiqing's palm in Nuanyang Mountain, he sent a message and shouted: "Come out of the house with me immediately, and take him with you."
I’m going!”
Although Feipu Pavilion is strictly prohibited from entering and exiting, it is certainly not a problem for people like Lu Kuang. The guards did not dare to stop them at all, and the two of them quickly disappeared on the street...
On the other side, Zhuo Mufeng returned to the outside of the town and said to the four waiting people: "Auntie, this junior has already visited, and there are no less than ten super masters in Feipu Pavilion now.
But fortunately they didn't run around in the town. In my opinion, it's better to just enter the town. As long as you stay away from Fei Waterfall Pavilion, no one can sense you."
Aunt Lei pondered for a moment and stared at him: "Why do you want us to enter the town?"
Zhuo Mufeng: "Ma'am, you might as well think about it. With our current strength, it's probably impossible to do anything secretly. Instead of doing that, it's better to draw fire from the bottom of the cauldron. Let's just make a plan and attack Fei Waterfall Pavilion directly!
This can also serve the purpose of sabotaging the talks."
Heart-Destroying Yama sneered and said: "That's nonsense! According to you, what kind of time was wasted before? You should just spread the news as soon as possible!"
Zhuo Mufeng calmly shook his head: "One moment, another moment. At that time, I was still thinking of playing tricks to completely alienate the five dynasties, so naturally I couldn't leak the news. Now that my hope has been defeated, I can only retreat and settle for the next best thing.
Once we take action, the worst we can do is make the five dynasties realize that there is a traitor among them. In this way, we can also delay their next meeting as much as possible. Madam, this is the best way at the moment. We can't do everything.
Don’t you want to do it?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that Mrs. Lei was staring at him with a strange look and asked what was wrong.
Aunt Lei shook her head and said with a smile: "Your idea coincides with me." She turned to look at the other three people: "What do you think?"
Du Yuehong and Wan Jian Yanluo looked at each other. They could clearly distinguish the stakes and understood that Zhuo Mufeng's method was the best choice. They both nodded in agreement.
The heart-destroying Yama had a dark face and remained silent. He had just said something nonsense, turned around, and his companion echoed Zhuo Mufeng's words. Wasn't this a slap in the face?
It's a pity that in the face of a major event, Aunt Lei and the other two people could not block the most advantageous road just to take into account Yama's emotions.
At that moment, five people took advantage of the darkness and entered the town.
Zhuo Mufeng said that he had chosen a temporary location that would not be too close to Feipu Pavilion and could monitor Feipu Pavilion to the greatest extent, and he would lead the way.
