Imperial Cultivation-Chapter 1018 - 1014: Found

Chu Liezhao slowly opened his eyes in the air, his gaze calm, serene, and clear.

He unfolded his crossed legs and stood in the air, as if firmly standing on flat ground.

The calm gaze fell into the eyes of every Yukunlun Palace disciple.

They felt an inexplicable majesty, unable to look directly.

The leading young girl clasped her hands, smiling sweetly, "Congratulations, Prince Consort."

Chu Liezhao nodded slightly and disappeared in a flash, returning to Li Miaotan’s side the next moment.

"My lady, shall we go?"

"Hmm."

Chu Liezhao embraced Li Miaotan, his figure becoming blurry, then disappeared from the spot without a trace.

They appeared at the peak of a mountain, ten miles away was the location of Yukunlun Palace.

It was the place where Purple Sky Jade Pavilion had previously battled with Yukunlun Palace disciples.

Li Miaotan was puzzled, "Will they pass through here? Should we wait here?"

"There are some lingering auras here," Chu Liezhao said.

Li Miaotan suddenly realized.

She understood Chu Liezhao’s intent: to track those experts from Purple Sky Jade Pavilion and ambush them.

This was an eye for an eye.

Chu Liezhao descended to the site of the battle, glanced left and right, took a few steps forward, and bent down to pick up a sword tassel.

The dark green sword tassel, the lower half stained with blood, had turned brown, faintly showing the intensity of the battle at that time.

"Is this enough?"

"It’s enough."

Chu Liezhao held it in his palm and closed his eyes.

Li Miaotan watched him intently.

A moment later, Chu Liezhao opened his eyes and nodded, "They are still at Yukunlun Palace."

"Husband, will Yukunlun Palace really let them go?"

"Does Yukunlun Palace dare to kill them?"

Li Miaotan shook her head, "They fear retribution from Purple Sky Jade Pavilion."

Chu Liezhao said, "The only concern now is if Wen Siming foresaw our actions and left earlier."

If he were Wen Siming, he would anticipate being targeted and would hide early, not returning with these people.

Li Miaotan gently shook her head, "Otherwise, we can just wait here and see?"

Chu Liezhao said, "Let’s ask the Empress for help."

Li Miaotan was stunned.

Chu Liezhao said, "The Empress has connections at Yukunlun Palace, right? Can she get Wen Siming’s aura?"

"Mother may not help with this matter."

"She will," Chu Liezhao said with a smile.

"Well, let’s give it a try," Li Miaotan said.

Chu Liezhao drew a Light Gate, and the two stepped into it and disappeared.

The next moment, they appeared at the Prince Consort Mansion.

Li Miaotan went directly to the Imperial Palace.

——

Leng Tieya ran through all the Secret Grounds of Ghost Bone Sect, absorbing the aura of Ghost Soil.

Altogether, there were four pieces of Ghost Soil.

At this moment, the Breaking Space Demon Device had drastically changed, becoming golden and resplendent.

Even the gemstone at its center had turned golden, dazzlingly bright and impossible to look at directly.

When Leng Tieya took out the Breaking Space Demon Device, what he saw were nine Light Gates.

Unlike before, these Light Gates vaguely revealed images.

The Light Gate of Little Outer Heaven revealed the Evil Venerable Statue, the Light Gate of Outer Heaven revealed a Phoenix, and the other seven Light Gates each showed a Strange Beast.

Among these seven Strange Beasts, he only recognized one Sky Dragon, the others he did not know.

He speculated that the images on these Light Gates might represent the strongest forces of that world.

The Light Gate of Outer Heaven showed a Phoenix, could it be that there really is a Phoenix in Outer Heaven?

What about the Sky Dragon?

Could the Sky Dragon summoned by his Heavenly Dragon Introduction truly exist in that world?

He was eager to go in and see.

But as soon as this thought arose, his whole body turned cold, and his hair stood on end.

He resolutely gave up.

Clearly, his current cultivation was not enough, far from enough.

Nine Light Gates, only two are not dangerous, namely the Little Outer Heaven and the Outer Heaven where he is located.

Based on the appearance of these Strange Beasts, he judges the third one to be the least dangerous.

But the actual feeling is that the fourth one is.

The fourth Light Gate reveals a monstrous beast, with a third whale shape, a third turtle shape, two parts bear shape, and two parts dragon shape.

It looks extremely terrifying, yet it is the least dangerous among the other seven Light Gates.

In the twilight of sunset, Chu Liezhao was enjoying tea in the small courtyard filled with rose-tinted clouds, watching Fu Zheng and Li Yuzhen spar with Swordsmanship.

The two women were dressed in Combat Uniforms, with graceful postures and clear sword light.

Their sword practice was like a sword dance, pleasing to his eyes.

When Fu Zheng lost by a single move, both women sheathed their swords and came to him.

He put down the tea cup and smiled, "Both of your Swordsmanship has improved a lot, not bad."

He looked at Li Yuzhen: "Especially you, Yuzhen, you have made rapid progress."

Fu Zheng has always been by his side, learning the Fallen Abyss Sword Technique and the Moon Soul Sword Scripture, her Swordsmanship was extraordinary.

Li Yuzhen also learned the Fallen Abyss Sword Technique but did not practice the Moon Soul Sword Scripture.

Yet she managed to suppress Fu Zheng; one has to admit her talent is exceptional, even surpassing Fu Zheng.

Li Yuzhen smiled and said, "I also had some insights watching Sister Fu practice sword."

She felt very fortunate.

If not for continuously sparring with Fu Zheng during this time, her Swordsmanship would not have advanced to such a level.

Fu Zheng shook her head repeatedly.

She personally experienced the improvement in Li Yuzhen’s Swordsmanship and couldn’t help but admire her amazing comprehension.

While the three were talking, Li Miaotan returned with an absolutely beautiful yet solemn face.

The two women saw this and tactfully stepped back.

Chu Liezhao stepped forward and handed her a tea cup: "Did Mother Empress not agree?"

Li Miaotan shook her head.

Chu Liezhao smiled: "Why didn’t she agree? Is it because she doesn’t want to trouble Yukunlun Palace?"

Li Miaotan nodded and said: "Mother said if she does this, no one would understand."

Chu Liezhao pondered: "Looks like we have to come up with a plan ourselves."

Li Miaotan said: "Mother said she’ll try to persuade the Palace Master to abolish that Wen Siming."

Chu Liezhao chuckled: "Can Mother Empress persuade the Palace Master?"

Li Miaotan pursed her lips and smiled: "Mother still has ways with Grandfather."

Chu Liezhao nodded.

The Empress is possibly the person who understands the Palace Master of Yukunlun Palace the best.

If he can’t persuade the Palace Master, the Empress’s daughter might.

"Wen Siming..." Chu Liezhao pondered: "Can the Rain Listening Platform obtain his personal belongings?"

Li Miaotan was spirited: "That’s a good idea, ... I’ll try."

She got up and left.

...

At dawn the next day, Chu Liezhao and Li Miaotan were practicing in the small courtyard when the Third Prince Li Chunhou arrived.

Li Chunhou entered the courtyard with a cheerful smile, took a small box from his sleeve, and placed it on the stone table: "Here, little sister, the thing you wanted."

He wore a dark blue robe, setting off his jade-like face, charming and handsome.

After putting down the small Purple Lacquer Box, he sat down at the stone table, grabbed the teapot, and poured himself a cup before Chu Liezhao and Li Miaotan could move.

After taking a sip of tea, he smiled and asked, "Little sister, do you really want to pursue and kill that Wen Siming?"

"Yes."

Li Miaotan stepped forward and opened the small Purple Lacquer Box, revealing a robe folded neatly.

The light purple robe, gently shaken by her, showed that the owner of the robe was not tall.

Chu Liezhao asked, "Third Brother, what do you think?"

"It’s best to act in secret, so no one knows." Li Chunhou said: "After all, it’s the Purple Sky Jade Pavilion, if it goes crazy, it would be quite troublesome."

He knew the profound foundation of these top Sects, not to be underestimated.

Li Miaotan snorted softly: "They’re not afraid of our revenge; are we afraid of their revenge?"

"It’s not about fear," Li Chunhou said: "If the Purple Sky Jade Pavilion retaliates, not targeting you, but only targeting our Venerables, it would be very troublesome."

Li Miaotan said: "Even if we act secretly, we can’t hide it from them."

Li Chunhou said: "The Purple Sky Jade Pavilion has many enemies, and there are many who want to assassinate their Elders."

Seeing Li Miaotan still wanted to retort, Chu Liezhao quickly smiled and said: "Let’s do as Third Brother says, I will disguise myself and deliver a fatal blow."

"Still my brother-in-law understands the bigger picture." Li Chunhou smiled, glaring at Li Miaotan.

Li Miaotan snorted: "Self-deception, it’s useless."

Chu Liezhao smiled: "Let’s first see if we can find him."

Whether useful or not, answering the Third Prince this way doesn’t matter.

While concentrating and sensing, he slowly nodded: "Found him."
