Chapter 602: The Assassination of the Great Vengeance in Queyue Palace
Common people were not allowed to enter the castle without a pass, so they had to crowd at the door and stand on tiptoe to look inside.
Chu Xiaomu pulled Xiaoying and Jinglan to the gate, took out the gold medal given by Jin Huapeng and showed it to the soldier guarding the gate, and easily entered Tiankun Castle.
Tiankun Castle is extremely large and has a complex structure. Chu Xiaomu had been treating Jin Lier's injuries for the past few days, so he was familiar with the route from Chengji Palace to the main gate. Although he had also been to Jin Lier's Jianxian Hall, he didn't know how to get there specifically, and he was even less clear about the directions of other places.
Jin Tiankai and Jin Lier led the participants to walk northwest for a distance and came to a palace that was only one story high and large. The word "Qingyang" was written in the middle of the palace door. It was the largest Qingyang Palace in Tiankun Castle.
The Jin Tiankai siblings exchanged polite words with the six city lords or generals and invited them into the hall. The accompanying guards and attendants were not allowed to enter.
Chu Xiaomu and the other two stood far away under an archway, not getting too close.
The Killing God Yinmen was still dragging the strange three-colored gem in his left hand. He walked to the large carriage with the emerald canopy behind him and made a gesture to invite someone.
The eight guards on horseback dismounted, and one of them stepped forward and lifted the curtain, from which a tall woman in a long silk dress with a pink and black hue stepped out. The woman had a black veil on her head, so her face could not be seen.
Jin Lier smiled and bowed to the pink-dressed woman, saying, "I guess this must be Princess Yaoyao. I'm so honored that Jinyang City has invited you to come here."
Jinglan frowned and said, "This Princess Yaoyao is the eldest daughter of the Lord of Xihai City, the God of Killing Changduan. She rarely shows up, but she is very famous. It is said that her spiritual power has reached a great level."
Chu Xiaomu couldn't help but be a little surprised, thinking that it was already very difficult for ordinary people to cultivate spiritual power, but this killer Yaoyao could actually cultivate to the level of Ruyi Hongxiang. Of course, her outstanding talent was indispensable, and she should have also used some miraculous medicine or spiritual objects to help her, otherwise it would be unlikely for her to cultivate to the level of Ruyi Hongxiang at her age.
When the God of Killing Yaoyao saw Jin Li'er, she saluted but did not return the greeting. She said, "The young lady from Jinyang City is indeed a very iconic person. She and my little brother from the God of Killing family are a very suitable match." Her voice was sharp and weird, as if someone had tied a knot in her throat and the breath was being squeezed out bit by bit.
Jin Li'er frowned slightly, obviously a little angry, and said: "Princess Yaoyao, you are joking. The people in your Killing God family are extremely talented and have ancient bloodline. They cannot be compared with ordinary people." There was something else in her words. First, she praised the Killing God family for their "extraordinary talents", and then said "they have ancient bloodline, and cannot be compared with ordinary people", which means that the Killing God family are not ordinary people, but a kind of ancient evil spirits.
The God of Killing Yaoyao obviously didn't hear it. She giggled a few times, like a seductive peach blossom that was poked by someone. Her body trembled slightly and she said, "You don't have to be polite. Our God of Killing family says you deserve it, so don't you deserve it?"
Jin Lier was extremely angry and thought to herself, what's so great about you people from the Killing God family? Look at the way you are dressed, you are so ugly and weird, under normal circumstances I wouldn't even look at you.
But today was the first day that Jinyang City invited them to attend the meeting. They were the guests and she was the host. She could not lose her temper in front of them, and could not even show the slightest unhappiness. Jin Lier had no choice but to force a smile, avoid the topic, and invite everyone to enter the Qingyang Hall.
After everyone entered the hall, eight bronze-armored soldiers pushed the heavy door and closed the hall. No unrelated personnel were allowed to enter the meeting.
Chu Xiaomu had excellent hearing and wanted to get closer to listen to what the people inside were saying, but he was scolded by the soldiers guarding the surrounding area, who told the three of them to move away quickly, saying that what was being discussed inside was the important affairs of the Cangmu Kingdom and outsiders were not allowed to get close.
Xiaoying pouted and said, "Why are you so fierce? We are so far away from the gate, how did you get close?"
A soldier who looked like a captain shouted, "I said you came closer, but look at your eyes, you are so sneaky, who knows what you are up to?! Go away, go away, if you make me unhappy, I will put all three of you in jail!" Xiaoying and Jinglan were both beautiful women, but this man didn't have the slightest bit of sympathy for them. It was obvious that he must have received a strict order not to let anyone get close to the Qingyang Palace, otherwise he wouldn't be so abrupt.
The three had no choice but to walk away.
No matter how good Chu Xiaomu's hearing was, he couldn't hear anything now.
After standing outside the Qingyang Palace for a while, Xiaoying took the two of them to stroll around the castle. The towers, pavilions, exotic flowers and rocks, and brocade fish in the castle all made the three of them dumbfounded. They thought that even if it was the residence of the God of Creation, it would not be as beautifully and interesting as Tiankun Castle.
In fact, Chu Xiaomu entered Tiankun Castle, not only to listen to what the people attending the Seven Cities Conference would discuss, but also to find the small villas where Chang Lun lived. He had decided to kill Chang Lun as soon as possible to avenge Huai Xiaomeng.
He had the city lord token given by Jin Huapeng in his hand. Except near the Qingyang Palace, the patrolling guards did not stop him. Some of them had already seen him because he had treated Jin Lier's injuries in Chengji Palace these days, and they were even more polite to him.
When Chu Xiaomu mentioned that he was going to Lady Jin's Queyue Palace, the guards also patiently gave him instructions. They told him which direction to go, which road to go through, which corridor to go through, and which bridge to cross.
The three of them walked around for a while and saw a palace surrounded by green trees and flowers. Above the gate were the words "Que Yue". The gate was closed and the three of them could not get through. But Chang Lun was undoubtedly living inside.
The three of them walked around the Queyue Palace for a while, but they found it a bit boring, so they returned to the guesthouse early and waited for Li Qi to come back and ask him how the meeting went.
Unexpectedly, Li Xian and his party did not return that night.
Chu Xiaomu said: "Since we don't know what the Seven Cities Conference will discuss, why don't I go to Yutuo City as soon as possible."
Jinglan knew that he wanted to seek revenge on Bai Yixing from the Snow Country, so she kept silent. Li Qi told her that her master had asked her to return to Bicheng, and she could no longer accompany Chu Xiaomu to other places.
Xiaoying had a new place to go and said happily, "Okay, okay, Brother Xiaomu, when are we leaving?"
Chu Xiaomu said: "I am going to seek revenge on the evil man who killed my grandfather and caused the deaths of more than 20 people in our village. This is not a joke."
Xiaoying immediately became unhappy and said, "When the time comes, you go and take your revenge, and I'll go and have my own fun. What does it matter? In the final analysis, you just don't want to take me with you!"
The two argued for a few more sentences, and Chu Xiaomu had no choice but to agree to take Xiaoying with him and decided to leave in the morning.
Time was urgent, so Chu Xiaomu decided to find Chang Lun and kill him tonight.
After seeing Xiaoying and Jinglan off, Chu Xiaomu tore a gray-brown dress into pieces, covered his face and forehead with the pieces, leaving only his eyes exposed, left the guest house under the cover of night, and secretly headed towards Tiankun Castle.
