Chapter 1540 The palace is on fire

The blade has no shadow, but it is extremely powerful. You can't feel the true energy form of the Dahua warrior, but the impact like a substance is not uncomfortable if it falls on the grandmaster.

Even though Hong Qi was a physically very powerful being among the masters, his whole body was thrown upside down by the impact of the invisible blade.

Hong Qi flew back seven or eight meters, his breath slowed down a little, and he inserted the green bamboo in his hand into the ground before he stabilized his body.

However, after standing still, Hong Qi was already in a very embarrassed state. Not only was there blood at the corner of his mouth, but there was also a deep and long bloody gash on his chest.

Fortunately, it was just an angry attack. If this knife had been replaced by a knife in the opponent's hand, Hong Qi would have been cut into two pieces by now.

After standing firm, Hong Qi's expression did not change much, but became more serious, but his back was soaked with cold sweat.

He knew that the person who attacked him just now was a super terrifying master.

At the moment, the man in black has disappeared, but Hong Qi can still feel the other person's aura and knows that the other person is still hiding somewhere around, ready to attack and kill him at any time.

Hong Qi worked hard and did not hesitate to use his energy.

Under the dark night, golden light appeared again, accompanied by a rolling heat wave that enveloped Hong Qi. His thin body seemed to expand a little in an instant.

This is a strange scene that has not been encountered in the capital for a long time. Even from a hundred miles away, warriors can feel this powerful master's true energy condensing.

For a time, many eyes were looking at the sky above Beggars Street in the northwest of the capital, looking at the gradually thickening black clouds above their heads, and everyone was guessing who was trying to provoke Heaven.

Looking back on the legends of the capital back then, who would have thought that today, the capital would become a gathering place for masters.

The people living in the capital have never seen such a scene. Seeing the golden light rising into the sky and the strong wind blowing under the dark night, they didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

The Grandmaster's true energy spreads, and the pressure can be clearly felt even in the palace.

The queen woke up from her sleep and asked in a low voice: "What on earth is going on?"

The palace maid beside the pillow responded in a low voice: "I'm reporting to you, my Majesty, there's a strange phenomenon happening outside the palace. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse."

"A natural phenomenon?"

The queen frowned slightly, got up from the bed, simply put on a layer of gown and walked to the window of the palace.

The view here is very good, and you can take in the sky of the capital from the window.

The Queen just glanced at it, mainly in the northwest sky, where black clouds were shrouded in a frighteningly low tone. There were faint flashes of lightning in the clouds, and under the clouds, a faint golden glow lingered, as if it was...

A stick emitting golden light inserted into the black clouds, seeming to hold up the entire sky.

"Where is Mr. Hou?" the queen called from the window.

Before the maid next to her could react, a man in silver armor appeared outside the window next to her.

"See you, empress."

"What's going on outside?"

The general named Hou Jun responded in a deep voice: "There are always masters in the capital who are ready to attack with all their strength regardless of the overflowing true energy."

The queen's brows gradually relaxed, feeling that this was not a big deal, and waved her hand lightly: "Retreat..."

Just as he said a word, a loud noise suddenly came from the distance.

"boom!"

The loud noise came suddenly, like an earthquake, and the entire palace trembled.

The queen was shocked, stood up, pressed her hands on the window sill, and looked at the distant sky, thinking that the Grandmaster's battle could spread to the palace so far away.

But when she saw the golden light in the northwest, she saw that the sky scene had not changed much. Obviously, the explosion just now was not caused there.

"Where did the explosion happen again?" The queen's brows gradually gathered, and a sense of ominousness arose in her heart.

Not only the queen, but also the silver-armored general outside did not react immediately. After hearing the question, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly realized something, jumped up, and flew into the sky. Only then did he realize that

The abandoned tower a few yards behind the queen's palace burned down.

There are not many people in the Dahua Palace. This hugely expensive palace was built by the previous dynasty and has many abandoned courtyards.

It should be an abandoned small garden overgrown with weeds. The attic inside is also in disrepair. Even the sign on the attic has been removed. No one knows what the tower was called before.

Hou Jun returned to the window and replied: "Ms. Qi, it was an abandoned tower behind that caught fire."

After saying that, Hou Jun looked puzzled and asked in a low voice: "It stands to reason that no one should live there. How could it catch fire if everything is fine? Madam...

"

Before Hou Jun finished speaking, the queen seemed to have thought of something, her expression suddenly changed, and she rushed out of the palace regardless of her disheveled clothes.

The night wind outside was very strong, and even Hou Jun felt a bit chilly. When he saw the Queen running out wearing only a thin gown, Hou Jun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My Queen, the night wind is cold, please return to the palace."

It’s a place to take shelter from the cold. But if a useless tower catches fire, someone from the palace will deal with it later.”

"Jun Hou, you...take me there immediately. You must get there before the palace people!"

Hou Jun was stunned for a moment, a little confused, but the Queen's pale face really appeared in front of his eyes. Hou Jun secretly wondered what was going on?

Hou Jun was still in a daze, but the Queen Empress had already hugged his arm regardless of her identity. Her gesture made it clear that she was not simply running over, but that she wanted to fly over with the Queen Empress.

Moreover, the Queen's clothes were thin, and the touch on her arm was soft and warm. As long as Hou Jun took a gentle breath, he could smell the Queen's noble breath. This feeling made Hou Jun's heart tremble.

"What are you still doing? Hurry up!"

Hou Jun came to his senses and respectfully said to the queen: "I'm sorry."

After saying that, Hou Jun took the queen into his arms and flew up.

That lightning-fast speed is beyond the reach of ordinary warriors, and the short distance of three to five hundred meters is only two breaths of time.

In the blink of an eye, Hou Jun's footsteps landed, and he had appeared under the burning tower head.

"Ahem..." The queen coughed twice. The speed was too fast, and the strong wind hit her face painfully. Moreover, she was indeed wearing too little clothes, and she was shivering from the cold.

Seeing the Queen's trembling body in the night wind, Hou Jun couldn't help but have the urge to use the warmth of his palms to warm his trembling shoulders.

Unfortunately, before Hou Jun could take action, the Queen had already rushed towards the burning tower desperately.

Hou Jun was startled and quickly stepped forward to stop him: "Queen, what are you doing?"

The queen looked serious, pushed Hou Jun away, and whispered: "You are guarding outside and are not allowed to come in."

After saying that, the queen continued to move forward.

This time, Hou Jun did not obey the queen's order, but grabbed the queen's arm.
