Nie Rong and Meng Ping looked at each other and saw inexplicable horror in each other's eyes.
Those who can disappear out of thin air in front of them, making it difficult for them to catch anything, can only be warriors above the 'Dongxu Realm', and not ordinary Dongxu Realm warriors.
Although, they had long guessed that Duan Lingtian's cultivation level might have broken through to the 'Dongxu Realm'.
But when they actually saw it with their own eyes, they couldn't help but be shocked.
Especially when you realize that Duan Lingtian is not just a warrior at the first, second or third level of Dongxu Realm.
"Xiaotian...is a being above the 'Fourth Level of Dongxu Realm'?"
Nie Rong looked at his wife and Yuan Li asked in a condensed voice, as if he wanted to confirm his guess from his wife.
"It should be! Otherwise, it is impossible for him to come and go without a trace in front of me! In addition, not only Xiaotian, but also the woman in red wearing a veil next to Xiaotian should be at the fourth level of the Cave Void Realm.
The existence of the above.”
Meng Ping nodded, Yuan Li condensed her voice when she finally spoke, her tone full of solemnity.
"So, Xiaotian came back prepared this time? But why did he say he was not sure?"
Nie Rong was puzzled.
"Perhaps... Xiaotian knows the details of those four people and knows that those four people are better than them."
Meng Ping said.
"Then what should we do now? If something happens to Xiao Tianzhen, I will never be able to rest in peace for the rest of my life."
Nie Rong's face looked ugly.
"Now, we can't get involved... Listening to what Xiaotian said before leaving the place just now, it's obvious that he has a plan that we can't interfere with."
A bitter smile appeared on Meng Ping's face, "Now, I just hope he can deal with those four strong men who don't know where they came from... Otherwise, not only our son, but Xiaotian will also die!"
Chixiao Kingdom Palace.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two figures as fast as lightning swooped down into the palace, setting off waves of evil wind wherever they passed, alarming many palace guards.
However, the palace guards could only feel the wind and could not see the two lightning-like figures at all.
"Brother Duan, do you know where they are being held?"
Two swift figures arrived at the depths of the palace in an instant. One of them couldn't help but ask the other, his voice was soft and beautiful, it was a woman's voice.
Just by listening to the voice, one can tell that this is a rare beauty.
"I don't know...but someone must know."
The other person's voice was calm but full of magnetism, responding to the former.
Phew! Phew!
Not long after, the latter paused. As he raised his hand, several guards in front of a palace fell down, leaving only one who was scared to death.
When he came back to his senses and saw the people who knocked out several of his companions, his eyes lit up and his cheeks began to tremble. He asked with some excitement: "You...are you Duan?"
Commander?"
"Um?"
The person who took action was none other than Duan Lingtian, who sneaked into the palace after leaving the Shenwei Hou Mansion.
When Duan Lingtian heard that the guard he had specially stayed behind recognized him, Duan Lingtian couldn't help being stunned and asked curiously: "Do you know me?"
"Commander Duan, you may not know me, but I know you!"
The guard said with excitement: "Back then, I was a student of the 'Jiang Xingxing' of the Shengwu Academy who was a few grades above you. I once witnessed with my own eyes that Commander Duan commanded you to command the army of our Chixiao Kingdom and take down the troops without spending a single soldier.
Go to the border city of Nanzhao Kingdom!"
"That battle has been recorded in the history of our Chixiao Kingdom! I was lucky enough to witness that period of history because of your contribution, Commander Duan."
Speaking later, the guard's excited voice began to tremble, "Duan... Commander Duan, after that battle, I will regard you as my idol."
Idol?
The corner of Duan Lingtian's mouth twitched slightly. Unexpectedly, a guard who stayed behind not only knew him, but also regarded him as his idol.
call!
The silent red figure fell in front of Duan Lingtian.
Now Feng Tianwu has taken off the veil on her face, and her stunning appearance seems to eclipse everything around her.
However, even so, the guard just glanced at Feng Tianwu casually, and then looked at Duan Lingtian again, still extremely excited.
"I would like to ask... do you know where Shenwei Hou and the others are being held?"
Duan Lingtian looked at the guard, his face became extremely solemn, "Of course, if you don't know, or don't want to say it, it's okay... But, I will knock you out."
"I know! I know!"
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, the guard nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, as if he was afraid that Duan Lingtian would be impatient with waiting, and hurriedly said: "Marquis Shenwei and His Majesty are currently locked up in the dungeon of the palace."
Dungeon?
When Duan Lingtian heard this, he couldn't help but frown.
He had been to the Royal Palace of Chixiao Kingdom many times, but every time he came, he went straight to the 'Jinluan Palace' to see the emperor.
So, I don't know where the dungeon is at all.
"Commander Duan, I will take you there."
The guard seemed to see Duan Lingtian's dilemma and said quickly: "I know where the dungeon is."
"You take me there? Aren't you afraid of death?"
Duan Lingtian was startled. He didn't expect this guard to be so bold. You must know that the palace is no longer under the control of the former emperor, but is under the control of one of the three major second-rate forces in the Northern Desert.
"Hehe... Commander Duan, please stop making fun of me! In fact, although a group of brothers in the palace have obviously surrendered, they still favor His Majesty's side in their hearts."
"Those four people, apart from being strong, are simply a bunch of lunatics... They also said that if you don't show up tomorrow, not only will you kill His Majesty and Marquis Shenwei, but you will even kill us and everyone else in the Chixiao Kingdom."
Having said this, the guards looked angry, "Those who falsely claim to destroy a country...they really think that they are the 'judges' in charge of life and death!"
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"In that case, then you can take us there."
Duan Lingtian didn't say much and said bluntly.
"good!"
The guards nodded hurriedly, and then took Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu all the way to the west of the palace. A remote and dilapidated palace to the west was heavily guarded.
"That's the 'dungeon'! Right in the middle of them, there is a stone slab. As long as you lift the stone slab, you can see a stone staircase leading underground. Below is the dungeon."
The guard hid aside and said to Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu.
Duan Lingtian nodded, and then glanced at the guards guarding the dungeon with a cold gaze, with a hint of murderous intent on his face.
In his opinion.
These guards usually ate the emperor's food, but at critical moments they were completely unreliable. They helped outsiders imprison the emperor who had provided them with food and drink. They were really ungrateful people.
"Commander Duan, it's actually not easy for everyone... If they don't do what those four lunatics say, not only them, but even their whole family will die!"
The guard said with a wry smile.
What?!
The guards' words shocked Duan Lingtian and made Duan Lingtian's eyes flash with coldness, "They actually threaten you like this?"
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was completely angry.
He now wanted to know which one of the three second-rate forces in the Northern Desert could do such an outrageous thing.
However, after hearing what the guard said, Duan Lingtian knew better.
Whoosh!
Duan Lingtian's figure moved, and he disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already on the 'slate' leading to the dungeon, standing firmly there.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
At the same time, there were sounds of bodies falling to the ground, but the more than twenty guards guarding the dungeon were all knocked unconscious and knocked down by Duan Lingtian.
"this……"
Seeing this scene, the guard hidden on one side shrank his pupils.
in his eyes.
Commander Duan, whom he admired most, disappeared in front of his eyes in an instant and reappeared at the entrance of the dungeon.
At the same time, more than twenty guards fell down.
What method is this?
"Among the powerful people I have seen in my life... I'm afraid only those four lunatics may have this strength! Even warriors in the Void Peeping Realm would find it difficult to achieve this step."
The guard said solemnly.
Soon, his pupils shrank again.
Because he found that the woman in red who was standing next to him disappeared in front of his eyes in the blink of an eye, and at the same time appeared next to the purple figure in the distance.
Immediately afterwards, he saw the stone slab blocking the entrance and exit of the dungeon being lifted up, and the two of them flew in together and disappeared before his eyes again.
"That woman... actually has such terrifying strength!"
The guard's breathing couldn't help but become rapid.
Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu have also entered the dungeon now.
There were other guards in the dungeon, but under their attack, they all fainted without exception.
In front of the two of them, these mere guards of the Chixiao Kingdom's palace were simply not enough to look at.
Not long after, the two came to a huge prison cell.
Inside, five people were sitting cross-legged.
Two middle-aged men and three young men were all practicing there with their eyes closed, completely unaware of everything around them.
"Is this going to jail?"
Duan Lingtian did not wake up the five people for the time being. He looked around the cell and soon saw the dishes not far from the five people, which were filled with fine wine and delicacies.
Even the cell where the five people were located was frighteningly clean and could be described as spotless.
"It seems that the guard was right...these guards are not really working for those people."
Duan Lingtian said secretly.
"Li Xuan!"
Soon, Duan Lingtian's eyes fell on one of them. This was a big fat man, and he was still a familiar fat man. His fat face and figure were the same as before.
"Those guys really tried their best... Even Li Xuan, who was far away in Aurora City, was captured by them and brought to the Imperial City."
Duan Lingtian's mouth twitched.
At this moment, Li Xuan's fat face trembled, as if he noticed something, and opened a pair of small eyes.
With just one glance, his little eyes saw straight
