Aunt, please don't chase me. I don't want to be the emperor.

The white-faced man seized the opportunity and rushed out of the building through the gap.

This was the choice of the white-faced man. He wanted to rush out violently before the people from the Tianji Pavilion came back. Doing so would be tantamount to exposing the fact that there was a thief in the Tianji Pavilion to everyone, but it was better than being dragged here by Cheng Ying.

3.56 His Majesty the Emperor Met a Master Again

The outside of the observatory was covered with numerous talismans designed to block out sound and spiritual energy fluctuations. Not only Cheng Ying had applied these, but even the white-faced man had put up quite a few as well. With this double insurance policy, any movement within the observatory would be completely invisible to the outside world.

However, a big hole was blown open in the Observatory at this moment. Even if you couldn’t hear it, you could see it!

"Oh my god, look, the Observatory exploded!"

"Holy crap, is this true? Why didn't I hear anything?"

"Really, really, I saw it too. I thought I was seeing things."

"Hey, look, someone jumped out!"

After seeing the wall of the Observatory explode, many disciples around the Observatory were dazzled at first reaction. After all, they heard nothing and felt nothing. But after they found out that many people around them also saw it, they realized that it was real!

Then, everyone saw the white-faced man jump out from the gap of the explosion, quickly jump into Tianxing Town, and disappear without a trace.

"That doesn't seem to be the Pavilion Master."

"It's definitely not, go check it out!"

Many disciples rushed to see what was going on, while some went to chase the white-faced man.

As for the Star Observation Tower, it was, after all, the residence of Lord Jiang Shang. Apart from the Eight Sect Masters, no one was allowed to enter without permission. Therefore, the disciples of the Tianji Pavilion did not dare to enter, but they did nothing. They immediately sealed off the entire Star Observation Tower, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving, and waited for the Pavilion Master or Sect Master to arrive and deal with the situation.

But no one noticed that a dark figure slowly stood in the shadows on the roof of the Observatory.

It was Cheng Ying. She suddenly appeared on the roof like a ghost, without being noticed by anyone.

She looked at the direction the white-faced man fled, but did not choose to chase him. Instead, she jumped up with her feet, leaving a wind-like afterimage, and disappeared into the clouds in an instant into the night.

Her mission was to find the Ghost Doctor Scripture in the Tianji Pavilion. She had to stay in the Tianji Pavilion until this mission was completed, so she couldn't be exposed and had to escape immediately. Her approach was also very smart. Although the white-faced man was exposed, Cheng Ying was not.

In the entire Tianji Pavilion, only one man wearing their Taoist robes ran out today, but no one saw Cheng Ying, which relieved a lot of pressure on Cheng Ying.

Of course, this was just Cheng Ying's stop-loss operation. After all, if he really wanted to hide it, he shouldn't have made a big deal out of it from the beginning. If anyone was to blame, it could only be the white-faced man for making such a bold move.

However, Cheng Ying didn't care too much about what had happened. She was more thinking about what to do next.

For example, how should I sneak into the Observatory next time?

For example, is the Ghost Doctor Sutra really in the Observatory?

For example, who is that white-faced man, and will he be a hindrance to my future actions?

Cheng Ying thought as she rushed towards Lifeng. However, just as she returned to the foot of Lifeng Mountain and disappeared into the forest...

As soon as Cheng Ying landed, he looked behind a tree on the right: "Who is it?"

The person behind the tree came out: "Great, you can actually sense me."

The person who came out was Ji Xian.

Although Cheng Ying's stealth skills were unparalleled, she had used the Flying Hidden Technique to rush to Lifeng. Although it could minimize the fluctuations of spiritual power, it was ultimately only a reduction, not a concealment. Although the fluctuations of spiritual power were so low that even the Yang God could hardly sense them, Ji Xian's perception was such that he could sense Cheng Ying's fluctuations.

There was no way. After all, Cheng Ying was in a hurry to leave Tianxing Town. If he ran slowly, he would probably be discovered by the eight masters of Tianji Pavilion.

However, although Cheng Ying's perception was not as incredible as Ji Xian's, it was obviously not to be underestimated. As soon as he landed, he found Ji Xian standing not far away.

Ji Xian looked Cheng Ying up and down, then said, "You're covered in dust. Did you get into a fight?"

Cheng Ying ignored him completely, glanced at him and walked up the mountain.

Ji Xian's brows twitched twice, and she followed up, saying, "With your strength, the only one who could fight you is a Yang God. But if it was a Yang God from the Tianji Pavilion or a Protector of the Great Zhou, there would definitely be many Yang Gods coming together to beat you up. You should be dead by now, and there's no way you could return to the Lizi Sect."

"So I'm curious, who are you fighting?"

Cheng Ying continued walking forward with an expressionless face.

Ji Xian's brows trembled, and her shoulders shook. Finally, she pointed at Cheng Ying's background and shouted, "If you don't answer me, I'll tell everyone that you are the Butterfly Shadow Killer!"

Cheng Ying stopped at this time and turned to look at Ji Xian expressionlessly: "I will also tell you that you are the emperor of the Great Zhou."

"I, the Emperor of the Great Zhou, am afraid that the Tianji Pavilion will kill me!"

Ji Xian was the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even if she was exposed, she would at most be expelled, not killed. But Cheng Ying was different. She was the Butterfly Shadow Killer. If she was exposed, she would definitely die without a burial place.

And this is what Ji Xian wanted to express to Cheng Ying.

But what Ji Xian didn't expect was that Cheng Ying's answer was: "Oh."

After saying that, Cheng Ying continued to move forward.

Ji Xian took a step forward: "I'll go, aren't you afraid of death?"

"Not afraid."

"you......."

After Cheng Ying said this, what else could Ji Xian say?

If someone else said this, Ji Xian would definitely not believe it. But now it was Cheng Ying, the expressionless woman, who said this, so Ji Xian felt that...it seemed that it was not a lie.

No matter what Cheng Ying said or did, he could not feel any emotions or desires.

She is cold and heartless, and doesn't care about the life or death of others, not even her own.

Ji Xian didn't say anything else and let Cheng Ying go.

Originally, Ji Xian wanted to find out what this expressionless woman was doing, and then find out what happened in Tianxing Town and Volcano Island, but when she saw the expressionless woman's expression, she knew that it was useless to ask anything.

Finally, Ji Xian looked towards Tianxing Town, hesitating whether to go down the mountain to take a look there.

But in the end, he could only shake his head.

Forget it, let’s not go. Aunt Luohua is in Tianji Pavilion now. There is a lot of commotion in Tianxing Town now. Something must have happened. It is very likely that Aunt Luohua will be lured back. It will be terrible if we meet her.

Anyway, I have to go to the Observatory to see Master tomorrow. I can ask him what happened then. It won’t take much time.

So Ji Xian also returned to Lifeng and planned to go back to her room to sleep.

But he had only taken a few steps when he stopped and looked back with a sharp gaze: "Who!?"

However, there was no one in the back and no one responded at all.

But Ji Xian was sure that she had not heard wrongly. She turned around and reached behind her, pulled out Shenghui Ji, and pointed to the bushes behind her right: "Come out! Don't make me say it a second time!"

Then the bushes moved.

But an iron fan flew out, stirring up thunder and fire!

Ji Xian was startled, but immediately swung his sword to knock away the Thunder Fire Iron Fan, and then swung a sword energy towards the bushes, instantly cutting down the bushes and several trees next to them.

But behind that, there was nothing.

Already ran away...

"Tsk, how quick he was! He actually managed to escape right under my nose."

Ji Xian was very angry. What on earth happened tonight? It was such a mess.

Ji Xian thought so, walked over, bent down and picked up the iron fan. In order to escape, the guy did not take the fan with him, nor did he use his spiritual power to recall the fan, for fear of being caught by Ji Xian.

Ji Xian took the iron fan in her hand and looked at it carefully. She found that the material of the fan was special and very spiritual. The interior was very delicate and seemed to have used mechanical techniques. It could be regarded as a magic weapon.

Moreover, the opponent was able to escape right under his nose. This kind of speed and skill is not something that ordinary martial arts masters can possess.

Although the spiritual power fluctuation is not high, judging from the means and weapons, the other party seems to be...Yang Shen.

"No way."

Ji Xian found it unbelievable. Is this really the Tianji Pavilion? It felt like the Imperial Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Yangshen could appear one after another as if they were free.

3.57 His Majesty the Emperor was ambushed by his aunt

After returning to Lifeng, Cheng Ying went back to his room.

But in the room, she met an unexpected person. The moment she opened the door, she saw someone lighting the candle on the table, illuminating the dark room.

In the light of the candle, Cheng Ying could see a Taoist priest in a white robe, who was gentle and well-mannered, but the style of the robe was not that of the Tianji Pavilion.

"It's you."

Cheng Ying obviously recognized the other person, it was Baili Qiankun.

"Haha, Miss Cheng Ying." Baili Qiankun smiled and took two steps forward, saying politely, "It's been a few days since we last met. I didn't expect Miss Cheng Ying to have successfully infiltrated the Tianji Pavilion. How's it going? Do you have any clues about the Ghost Doctor Sutra?"

"not yet."

Cheng Ying's face was expressionless, and he didn't even rush to ask why Baili Qiankun was there. Instead, he reported the situation matter-of-factly: "I just took advantage of Jiang Shanggong's absence to sneak into the Stargazing Tower to investigate, but encountered obstacles and had to retreat."

"Oh, to the point where Miss Cheng Ying feels like he's an obstacle, could he also be a Yangshen-level figure?"

"Yes."

"Which of the eight masters of the Tianji Pavilion is this?"

"Not the Eight Gate Master."

"Who is that?"

"do not know."

"..."

Baili Qiankun fell silent, lowered his head and began to calculate, but after a moment he frowned: "I can't figure it out. Does this person have a treasure that can conceal the secrets of heaven, or is he himself a powerful being who can conceal the secrets of heaven?"

Cheng Ying had already finished his report, so he began to ask back, "I will continue to investigate. Then, Taoist Baili, why are you here? Did the leader ask you to come?"

"Of course not. I just came here to take a look at the territorial waters of Tianji Pavilion along the way."

Baili Qiankun was telling the truth. After he separated from Dieying and others at the Yangzhou dock, he headed north along the coastal wind, avoiding the search and arrest by the Great Zhou forces in the Central Plains, and planned to go to the foreign land of the Northern Desert.

I stopped by Tianji Pavilion for two things.

The first thing he did was to find Cheng Ying and ask about her investigation progress. The second thing he did was to read the secret book and know that there was a powerful monster hidden in the volcanic island of Tianji Pavilion. He wanted to imitate the situation in Yanhuang Mountain and obtain the essence of the monster.

However, he didn't expect that this monster had already been discovered and killed by the Tianji Pavilion in advance, and he didn't expect to meet Su Luohua and the Da Zhou Secret Guard here.

Baili Qiankun is also a fortune teller. Today he has deeply experienced what it means that man proposes, God disposes.

Now that Baili Qiankun has been exposed, the corpse of the demon beast in Tianji Pavilion has been taken over by Da Zhou, and he has already met Cheng Ying, there is no reason to stay here any longer, so he said: "Since I have asked everything I should ask, I will trouble Miss Cheng Ying with the matter of the Ghost Doctor Sutra. I will take my leave."

Cheng Ying completely ignored Baili Qiankun and walked straight into the room. He took off his black windbreaker and looked like he was going to take a rest.

Baili Qiankun didn't care. He looked at Cheng Ying's back and couldn't help but sneer.

Everyone says that the best weapon cultivator in the world is Pang Yuanchu, the great military strategist of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Some say it is Gong Shuzhi, the lord of the Divine Weapon Valley. Some even say it is Kong Mingliang, the Sky Fox Commander, Ling Qianfan, the Fierce Sparrow Commander, or even Taibai, the poet and swordsman fairy.

But in Baili Qiankun's opinion, the best weapon cultivator in the world should be Cheng Longjiu.

What Cheng Longjiu created was Cheng Ying, a tool man who was so useful that he couldn't be more useful.

Then, when Baili Qiankun left Cheng Ying's room, his figure gradually became blurred, as if it had turned into a wisp of breeze and drifted away, as if he had never been there.

.....

Ji Xian then returned to his room and met someone he had never expected.

Ji Xian pushed the door open and walked in, taking off the Taoist robes from Tianji Pavilion. She said in a lazy voice, "Well, I'm so tired. Let's get some rest quickly. We have to get up early tomorrow."

I have to go to Master's place to practice tomorrow morning, but I should be able to take a leave in the afternoon, and then I can have some fun in Tianji Pavilion.

It is very important to balance work and rest. Master should agree.

Well, perfect, the plan works!

Just as Ji Xian was imagining a beautiful tomorrow, she suddenly felt a little cold.

It was not the temperature around him, but a kind of coldness that came from the heart, as if countless pairs of cold eyes full of murderous intent were staring at him, as if he would be cut into pieces if he moved.

Ji Xian felt scared and had subconscious thoughts in her mind.

No...no way?

Although she found it unbelievable, Ji Xian couldn't help but look behind her tremblingly.

I saw a girl standing behind the door. She had black hair and a white dress. Through the moonlight outside the window, I could see her unparalleled beauty. Her pair of ice-blue eyes shone with an icy light, which was fascinating.

But Ji Xian was not at all obsessed with the other person's beauty. Instead, she was trembling with fear.
