Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen

Chapter 4 The Queen is Worthy of Being the Queen

At the gate of Xiaoyao Palace, a carriage slowly drove in from the distant street, and the wheels rolled over the bluestone road, making a slight "creaking" sound.

The carriage was covered with a layer of dark blue brocade embroidered with delicate auspicious cloud patterns, which shimmered faintly in the sunlight.

When the carriage stopped at the gate of Xiaoyao Palace, the coachman hurriedly lifted the curtain of the carriage.

The next moment, a delicate hand stretched out from the carriage. The fingers were as white and slender as jade onions, and the nails were trimmed neatly and roundly.

Immediately afterwards, a woman in a Confucian robe with a light purple edge got out of the carriage.

The woman had a beautiful face, her long black hair was tied up high, and a jade hairpin was adorning her hair. Her skin was as white as snow, and seemed to be glowing with a soft halo under the sunlight.

The light purple-edged gauze robe she wore fluttered gently in the wind, outlining her fiery figure, and her bulging chest made the mature and charming temperament she exuded even more intense.

After she got off the car, she raised her eyes slightly and immediately looked at the luxurious carriage pulled by four horses in front of the gate of Xiaoyao Palace.

When she saw the carriage, a look of worry immediately appeared on Su Wanyun's face, and a trace of worry and uneasiness flashed in her eyes.

Such a luxurious carriage, pulled by four horses, means that the person coming must be of very noble status.

She immediately walked towards the gate of Xiaoyao Palace. When she arrived at the door, Su Wanyun asked the guard at the door, "Who is here?"

The guard replied respectfully, "Miss Su, it's the Queen who's here to visit the King."

As soon as the guard's voice fell, Su Wanyun hurried towards Lu Ming's inner courtyard.

The Queen and Lu Ming had no connection at all. Her appearance here meant that the Queen came on behalf of the royal family and the person in the palace.

Lu Ming is almost dying, and the arrival of the royal family at this time is definitely not a good thing.

She was not in Xiaoyao Palace, and she didn't know how the queen would treat Lu Ming.

In Su Wanyun's eyes, Lu Ming is still a child who has not grown up. She will never allow anyone to hurt Lu Ming, even if they are members of the royal family.

In just a moment, Su Wanyun arrived at the gate of Lu Ming's courtyard. Two women were standing at the gate. One was Lu Ming's maid Xiaohuan, and the other should be the queen's maid.

She held a sword in her hand with an exquisite hilt on which were engraved the words "Qingluan".

The maid's hair was tied with a black and white headband, revealing her fair forehead.

She wore a black and white horse-faced skirt on her lower body and a white plain dress on her upper body. The dress was tucked into the horse-faced skirt, and the belt around her waist highlighted her curvy figure.

She has delicate features, a cold look in her eyes, and exudes a cool temperament.

Su Wanyun looked at Xiaohuan and asked, "Xiaohuan, why aren't you with Lu Ming?"

The maid Xiaohuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied, "Miss Su, it was the king who asked me to come out."

Su Wanyun became even more anxious. She knew very well that there were many things in the Xiaoyao Palace that the royal family was interested in, such as the magic arts of the old King Xiaoyao.

Su Wanyun said nothing more and was about to break into the yard. However, the next moment, the queen's maid suddenly reached out and blocked Su Wanyun's way.

"Miss Su, King Xiaoyao and the Queen are discussing important matters. Please don't go in and disturb them."

Su Wanyun glanced at Li Qingluan coldly, and then said in a tone that brooked no refusal: "Get out of the way!"

There was a hint of majesty in Su Wanyun's voice, her brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes.

However, Li Qingluan still stood in front of Su Wanyun, with no intention of giving way.

Seeing that Li Qingluan was determined to stop her, Su Wanyun was no longer polite. The next moment, Su Wanyun released her true energy and her clothes fluttered.

Immediately afterwards, Su Wanyun slapped Li Qingluan with a palm.

Li Qingluan didn't expect that Su Wanyun was actually a martial arts master. Then Li Qingluan turned her hand and slapped her. Her movements were swift and powerful. Her palm collided with Su Wanyun's palm, making a loud "bang" sound.

The two women's palms collided, and their bodies were instantly repelled, and then the two women distanced themselves from each other.

Considering that Su Wanyun was the wife of the eldest son of the Xiaoyao Palace, Li Qingluan did not draw his sword immediately. At this time, Su Wanyun said in a cold tone: "A fourth-rank official wants to stop me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Wanyun lightly tapped the ground with her white cloth shoes, and her body flew directly towards Li Qingluan.

Li Qingluan attacked again to meet Su Wanyun's attack, but soon Li Qingluan discovered that Su Wanyun's strength was far above her own, and Su Wanyun was at least a second-grade master.

A bead of sweat appeared on Li Qingluan's forehead without him noticing.

Li Qingluan was under tremendous pressure at this time, and she absolutely could not let Su Wanyun get close to that room.

Although she was at the gate of the yard at the beginning and did not approach the room, a warrior's perception is very strong, and she already had a rough guess about what happened in the room.

This kind of thing must never be leaked out. As the queen, she must guard this door even if she dies.

Seeing that he was no match for Su Wanyun, Li Qingluan finally drew his sword, turned the hilt in his hand, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Su Wanyun.

"Miss Su, I'm sorry!" As soon as the words fell, Li Qingluan stabbed Su Wanyun with a sword, the sword light flashed, and the sword moves were sharp.

Su Wanyun looked coldly at the sword tip coming straight towards her. She did not dodge, just looked at it.

Just as the sword in Li Qingluan's hand was about to pierce Su Wanyun's body, Su Wanyun waved her hand, and several golden needles flew out from her sleeves, making a "whoosh" sound, and directly knocked Li Qingluan's sword aside.

Li Qingluan continued to launch attacks. Although her realm was only the fourth level, she had been trained as a killer since she was a child and had rich practical experience.

Her sword moves are flexible and varied, making them unpredictable. For Su Wanyun, a lady from a wealthy family who rarely fights, Li Qingluan is a very tough opponent.

The fight in the yard was intense, and so was the fight in the room.

Lu Ming and Wu Wanrong had already noticed the loud noise outside, but Lu Ming did not stop his actions because of the noise outside.

Wu Wanrong is a second-grade warrior. Her endurance is very strong. From the beginning to now, she has not made any sound.

Her face still had a cold expression. Although a blush had appeared on her cold cheeks, the lack of response still made Lu Ming feel a little bored.

However, when Su Wanyun's voice appeared in the yard, Wu Wanrong suddenly became nervous. Her body felt strange and tensed up. She seemed to have a hint of resistance. It was obvious that she was afraid that what happened in the room would be discovered by others.

After an unknown amount of time, the sounds of fighting in the yard gradually stopped. It was very difficult for a fourth-grade cultivator to hold on until now.

Li Qingluan fell to the ground. She struggled to stand up with her hands and warned, "Miss Su, if you open the door, you and the Su family will be doomed!"

Su Wanyun ignored Li Qingluan's warning and walked straight towards the door of Lu Ming's room.

Just as she was about to push open the door, she suddenly heard Lu Ming's voice coming from inside the room, "Huh... The Queen is worthy of being the Queen! She's really different from ordinary people!"

crunch...

Su Wanyun's white jade hand stopped in mid-air, and an expression of disbelief appeared on her face.

She felt that she must be overthinking it. She was the queen who was the mother of the country. How could such a thing happen?

But even though she thought this was impossible, Su Wanyun still did not push open the door.

The creaking sound was still coming from the room, and the sound became louder and louder in her ears. Su Wanyun's heart became more and more confused, her heartbeat accelerated, and her cheeks became a little hot.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Ming's roar was heard, and Su Wanyun's hands dropped directly.

At this moment, Wu Wanrong's cold and weak voice came from the room, "Su Wanyun, remember your identity!"

Su Wanyun came to her senses instantly, but she still didn't push the door open.

As a second-rank warrior, she was clearly aware of what was happening in the room at such a close distance.

Her face turned pale, and then she turned around and walked to the gate with heavy steps.

Seeing that Su Wanyun did not push open the door, Li Qingluan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although she also realized that Su Wanyun had discovered it, as long as Su Wanyun did not push open the door and did not break the window paper, everything would be fine.
