Dan Taiyuan’s cold gaze landed on Lou Qianxue.
Lou Qianxue frowned. “Strange… I feel like something is calling me… in this imperial palace…”
She abruptly raised her head and looked at the palace garden.
She even unintentionally admired the continuous rise and fall of the towering palace.
“Miss Jade-Masked Blast, please follow me.”
The palace servant led them through corridors and palace gates as they headed inside the palace. On the way, they passed by many palace servants, who sized them with curious gazes.
When they reached a certain place…
“it’s here!” Lou Qianxue suddenly raised her head and looked at an area…
However…
“Huh?” Lou Qianxue’s beautiful eyes widened. A tinge of anger mixed with grievous hatred swept past her eyes. “It’s actually him!
“Gong Sunheng!” Lou Qianxue clenched her hands. “I understand now! The human figure in the flames had refined a part of the Phantom Demon Heart Fire. Hence, I can sense the calling from the Phantom Demon Heart Fire in his body… But from the looks of it, I don’t think he can sense me.”
Lou Qianxue bit her teeth and controlled herself as she withdrew her gaze. “That human figure in the flame is crafty! Since I don’t have a plan to deal with him right now, I mustn’t act rashly and alarm him!
“Endure! I must endure! When the time is ripe, I’ll definitely tear him to shreds and use his blood as a sacrifice for Gongsun!”
Soon, her group reached the East palace.
Inside the palace, a handsome, thin-faced man was half-lying on the bed while lightly coughing.
“Cough… cough cough… Father, my illness, you also know… Don’t, don’t bother so much about me!”
A domineering middle-aged man with grey temples and a superior aura sat at the side of the bed. In a voice full of prestige, he calmly said, “The information from Lingxi Prefecture says that Jade-Masked Blast is incredible. There’s no harm in letting her have a look.”
These two people were the Crown Prince, Gong Sunyu, and His Majesty, Emperor Ying, of Tian Zhao Empire.
As the two of them were talking…
“Your Majesty, Miss Jade-Masked Blast is here! Young Master Bai, whom Princess Xue Qing brought to the palace a few days ago, is also here.”
Emperor Ying coldly nodded. “Let them in.”
“Your Majesty.”
Lou Qianxue respectfully bowed with clasped hands, but Dan Taiyuan did not move at all. Instead, he kept staring at Lou Qianxue…
Emperor Ying emitted a strong and superior aura. His gaze, which was filled with dignity and sharpness, swiftly swept past the both of them.
Even when he saw Lou Qianxue’s face, he did not reveal any emotions. He only nodded to give a sign. “I’ll have to trouble you. As long as you can treat Yu Er, I’ll definitely treat you well.”
“Yes, I’ll try my best.”
As Lou Qianxue spoke, she raised her eyes and looked at the prince.
She just swept a glance at the prince, yet she froze on the spot.
“This is…” Lou Qianxue blinked as she said, “The supreme glazed body?”
As she stared at the prince’s pale, thin, and handsome face, she softly exclaimed, “Your Royal Highness actually has a supreme glazed body?”
The atmosphere in the entire place instantly became strange.
Emperor Ying’s expression changed as well. Crown Prince’s gaze fell on Lou Qianxue as he sized her up and gently asked, “You… cough… you also know about the supreme glazed body?”
Lou Qianxue nodded. “In this world, many people are blessed with special physiques. The meridians of a body like your Royal Highness’s supreme glazed body are pure and clean. The speed of cultivation for a person with such a body is tens of hundreds of times faster… It’s the physique that warriors dream of.”
Emperor Ying sighed. “You’re right. Yu Er indeed has the supreme glazed body. Hence, although he’s often in bed, his cultivation is not any weaker than mine. He’s so talented. However, I’ve sealed Yu Er’s physique using my Essence Martial Power. How were you able to recognize it then?”
