Chapter 2156 Waiting
As they walked, He Zhou asked, "Has Joanna been in the Holy Palace all this time?"

"Yes, our Lord has always been beside the Holy Lord."

the woman replied.

He Zhou nodded.

Everything was just as he expected.

Joanna has never gone out since she entered the Holy Palace.

After thinking for a while, He Zhou asked again: "What do you think of your Lady Joanna?"

The woman replied without hesitation: "Our mistress is very good, and we have always served her loyally."

He Zhou was silent.

This was not the answer he wanted.

The reason why he asked this question was mainly to see if Joanna had two more personalities beside the Holy Lord.

After a brief thought, He Zhou asked again: "So what do you think of your Lady Joanna's personality?"

"Very good, we have always been loyal to Lady Joanna."

The woman still replied politely.

He Zhou knew that he had no chance of getting the truth about Joanna from this woman.

Even if the woman knew that Joanna had two personalities, she would never say it honestly.

So there's no point in continuing to ask.

Let's wait until I meet Joanna.

He Zhou didn't ask any more questions and followed the woman quickly.

The woman walked forward.

After walking for a while, she suddenly stopped and said, "We're here."

He Zhou stopped and looked around.

The place where he is now is located in the upper part of the Holy Palace.

Judging from the surrounding layout, this should be a palace.

Another thing is that there is a faint fragrance in the air here, which makes people feel happy after smelling it.

After looking around for a while, He Zhou said to the woman, "Where is your Lady Joanna?"

"Mr. He Zhou, please wait here for a moment."

The woman said to He Zhou.

"it is good."

He Zhou nodded.

He continued to observe the situation here, while the woman walked away quickly, apparently to find Joanna.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huang Yu asked, "How is it? Isn't the interior of this Holy Palace very magnificent?"

"That's right." He Zhou affirmed.

Then he asked again: "Aren't you worried about being discovered by the Holy Lord?"

"Of course I'm worried."

Upon hearing this, Huang Yu became furious.

If He Zhou didn't insist on coming to this place, why would he take this risk?
Not needed at all.

Now He Zhou asked him if he was worried.

"If I could, I would like to leave here immediately."

Jaune said unhappily.

This is what he means.

If possible, he really wanted to leave immediately instead of staying here and living in fear.

But there was no way, it was obvious that He Zhou was not going to leave.

At least not until he saw Joanna.

Seeing that Huang Yu was in such a bad mood, He Zhou shook his head secretly and stopped asking questions.

At this moment, just wait patiently for a while.

Let's see if the woman will bring Joanna with her when she comes back.

He Zhou was thinking rapidly in his mind.

His real purpose in entering the Holy Palace was not Joanna, but the new Holy Lord.

After all, the task assigned by Lin Yu was to get him close to the new Holy Lord.

Finding Joanna was just to achieve this goal.

Of course, He Zhou didn’t know that Joanna was a favorite of the new Holy Lord before coming here.

He just knew that Joanna was in the Holy Palace.

And this news was told to him by Lin Yu.

Therefore, maybe Lin Yu also hopes that he can get close to the new Holy Lord through Joanna.

He Zhou waited patiently.

After a while, the woman came back.

But there was no one beside her, not even Joanna.

He Zhou couldn't help but frown.

what is happening?
Didn’t this woman go to see Joanna?

So where is Joanna now?
He Zhou couldn't help but ask, "Where is your Lady Joanna?"

The woman replied, "Mr. He Zhou, please continue to wait here, I will look for it again."

"Ok."

He Zhou had no choice but to agree.

He didn't know what was going on with Joanna, so he could only wait patiently.

However, He Zhou had a bad feeling in his heart.

Maybe Joanna was in some trouble.

For example, the new Holy Lord didn't allow her to let him in, but Joanna let him in secretly.

Or maybe the new Holy Lord didn't know the situation before, so Joanna let him in. Later, after the new Holy Lord knew the situation, he prevented Joanna from meeting him.

Everything is possible.

After all, he couldn't answer the last question at all when he was in that passage just now.

In the end, the other party let him pass.

There is clearly something wrong here.

As to whether Joanna took the initiative to help him at that time, no one knows.

He Zhou continued to wait patiently.

Time passes minute by minute.

After an unknown amount of time, the woman came back.

This time, before He Zhou could even ask, the woman took the initiative to say, "Mr. He Zhou, please wait a moment."

"Row."

He Zhou had no choice but to agree.

Under the current circumstances, there is nothing he can do even if he doesn't want to.

Because Joanna wasn't around at all.

All we can do is wait patiently.

The woman walked away quickly.

He Zhou waited patiently.

After waiting for a while, he walked to the window on the side of the corridor and observed the scenery outside.

This window faces the huge square in the center of the holy city.

You can see that the square is full of people at this time.

And if you look up, you can see the giant eye right above the Holy Palace.

The main reason was that he was currently in a side hall, so he could only see half of the eyes.

After looking for a while, He Zhou thought to himself, it would be great if he could find a way to get close to that giant eye.

Lin Yu said at the time that as long as he let the giant eye stare directly at it for a while, he would be able to break through the limit of his body and reabsorb the fragments of the evil god.

He Zhou thought in his heart.

If the limit of his physical body is broken through and he continues to absorb the fragments of the evil god, his strength will be improved quickly.

After all, there are fragments of evil gods in that alternate dimension.

As long as your strength is improved enough, you don't have to feel guilty even when facing the Holy Lord.

After all, no matter how strong the Holy Lord is, his power is limited.

He Zhou is very clear about this.

"Unfortunately, I don't know how to get close to that giant eye now."

He Zhou stared blankly for a while.

Suddenly, he remembered something.

Isn’t Huang Yu the golden-armored holy guard of the Holy Palace? He must know how to get to the giant eye.

Thinking of this, He Zhou immediately asked: "Huang Yu, is there a way in this Holy Palace leading to the giant eye above?"

"That giant eye?" Huang Yu wondered why He Zhou suddenly asked this, but still replied: "Of course there is a way, the way is in the palace where the Holy Lord usually works."

"Holy Lord..."

He Zhou immediately gave up the idea. The road was inside the Saint Lord's palace, so he definitely couldn't get up there easily.

If you want to go up, you must first get close to the new Holy Lord.

He Zhou couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.

Maybe it was because of this that Lin Yu allowed himself to get close to the new Holy Lord.

After all, only by successfully approaching the new Holy Lord can we reach the location of the giant eye.

Thinking of this, He Zhou shook his head secretly.

It seems that I don’t need to think about this for the time being. It would be better to think about how to get closer to the new Holy Lord.

Of course, given the current situation, getting close to the new Holy Lord is a pipe dream.

The most important thing now is to see Joanna first.

I don’t know what Joanna’s current situation is.

Maybe it was just as he had just thought. Joanna was called away by the new Holy Lord and was asked to stay away from him.

Thinking of this, He Zhou couldn't help but turn his head and look to the other side of the corridor.

He wanted to see if the woman had come back.

But unfortunately, the other party did not come back.

He Zhou shook his head secretly again.

Then he stopped thinking about it and continued to wait patiently.

Of course, his gaze returned to the square below and he continued to observe the people and things in the square.

Time passes minute by minute.

This time the wait was particularly long.

It seemed that the woman had not found Joanna and had not come over.

There was no choice but to continue waiting.

After a while, Huang Yu said, "The security in the Holy Palace seems to be much stricter than before, and from what I have observed, some of the Holy Guards have problems at first glance."

"Oh? What's the problem?"

He Zhou was bored waiting, so he was very interested in the topic Huang Yu started.

Of course, he wanted to know more about the situation in the Holy Palace.

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.

Huang Yu said: "From what I have observed, these Holy Guards are obviously under-trained and seem to have been hastily appointed. Many Holy Guards may have died."

He Zhou reminded them when he heard this: "Didn't I say before that some Holy Guards refused to wear the new Holy Cloth and were thrown into prison by the new Holy Lord? I guess a lot of them were killed."

"No, there should be many who died accidentally. I noticed that many of the Holy Guards looked a little strange. They looked nervous about life and death, as if they could die at any time."

Jaune explained.

"is it?"

He Zhou looked around, then his eyes fell on a holy guard on the side of the corridor.

He didn't notice this.

Are these Holy Guards really worried about death?

He Zhou decided to observe and see.

After taking a closer look, he couldn't help but frown and said, "It seems to be true."

Huang Yu said: "I have been in the Holy Palace for so many years, I am sure I am not wrong. There is definitely something wrong with these Holy Guards. They seem to be facing some threats all the time."

He Zhou guessed: "Could it be that the new Holy Lord is ready to kill them at any time?"

"It's possible, but it doesn't seem likely." Huang Yu pondered.

"Tell me what you think."

He Zhou decided to listen to Huang Yu's specific ideas first.

See what he is thinking.

This guy used to be a golden-armored holy guard of the Holy Palace and knew a lot about what was going on in the Holy Palace.

It would definitely be helpful to hear more of his ideas.

Huang Yu was silent for a while, then said, "I think the new Holy Lord may often send them to perform missions with extremely high mortality rates, and even the Holy Guards in the Holy Palace will receive such missions."

There are two types of Holy Guards. One type roams around the Holy City and is responsible for maintaining public order.

The other type is specifically responsible for guarding the Holy Palace.

Normally, the Holy Guards in the Holy Palace would be safer and their work would be easier.

The Holy Guards patrolling the Holy City are busier and more dangerous.

I had already told He Zhou about these topazes before.

Therefore, He Zhou was very clear in his mind.

Huang Yu thought for a moment and said, "Another thing, these holy guards seem to be injured frequently. I don't know what's going on."

"How did you know that?"

He Zhou looked carefully for a few times, but he could not tell that the Holy Guards in the distance were injured.

I don’t know how Huang Yu figured it out.

This eyesight is really extraordinary.

Of course, it is also possible that Huang Yu did not tell him some things, which caused him to not know how to judge.

Huang Yu replied, "I can smell the healing elixir on them."

"is it?"

He Zhou touched his chin.

He didn't know much about holy medicine, so he couldn't smell anything special.

Huang Yu often refines holy medicines, so it is normal for him to smell it.

He Zhou didn't find it strange.

Huang Yu added: "Anyway, the situation is very abnormal, so we still have to be careful."

When saying this, Huang Yu's tone was somewhat relaxed.

The main reason is that if the Holy Guards in the Holy Palace cannot protect themselves, they will definitely not have time to pay attention to him.

He will be much safer.

What he was most worried about was being discovered by the Holy Guards in the Holy Palace, and then these Holy Guards would tell the original Holy Lord about the situation, and then he would be in big trouble.

However, these holy guards could hardly protect themselves, so naturally they would not notice his existence.

Huang Yu was very happy about this.

It can be said that this is absolutely good news for him.

Of course, He Zhou didn’t think so.

In He Zhou's opinion, this is not a good thing.

But there was nothing he could do now, he could only wait patiently.

Waiting for Joanna's reply.

"Why hasn't that person come back yet?"

He Zhou looked towards the other side of the corridor again.

The woman just now hasn't come back yet.

I don’t know what he is doing. Is he really looking for Joanna?
He Zhou always felt that maybe Joanna sent her to fool him.

After all, it is possible that Joanna still has both a clone and her original body, unlike herself, where the clone has been taken away by Lin Yu.

"Forget it, let's continue waiting."

He Zhou could only wait patiently.

This time the wait was exceptionally long.

Nearly an hour has passed since then, and it looks like we may have to wait another hour.

He Zhou was bored and worried while waiting.

This feeling is not pleasant.

After all, he had no idea what Joanna and the new Holy Lord's attitude towards him was.

If the other party's attitude towards him is hostile, then continuing to wait will definitely not be a good thing for him.

Maybe even ideas.

And He Zhou had no way of being sure of all this.

"If something really goes wrong, Lin Yu should show up, right?"

He Zhou was guessing in his heart.

His biggest hope now is Lin Yu.

As long as Lin Yu shows up, many things will not be a problem.

And if He Zhou left him alone, he would be in real trouble.

"That man is back."

Just as He Zhoudong was thinking about it, Huang Yu suddenly reminded him.

He Zhou immediately came to his senses and turned to look at the other side of the corridor.

Sure enough, the woman was striding towards him.

He Zhou patiently waited for the other party to get closer, then asked, "What did your Lady Joanna say?"

The woman smiled and said, "Lady Joanna asked me to take you to see her. Please follow me."

He Zhou immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, at least the person had arrived.

I just don’t know if everything that happens next will be what I hope.
