The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 396

Shangguan Ziling, the instigator, hid in the space and found a comfortable place. She lay leisurely on the reclining chair, holding a sweet fruit in her hand and savoring it carefully. She felt very relaxed, as if she was in another world, far away from the disputes and dangers of the outside world.

The little fat boy lay in her arms and said softly, "Master, given the situation outside now, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out for a while!" There was some worry and concern in his voice.

Shangguan Ziling raised her eyebrows slightly. She knew that the current situation was not favorable to her. She put down the fruit in her hand, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Little Fatty, look at King Lingxiao, does he have a space ring in his hand?" Her tone was filled with speculation and expectation.

The little fat boy looked at King Lingxiao outside through the perspective of space. He carefully observed King Lingxiao's fingers, and then said excitedly: "Master, did you see that? The ring on King Lingxiao's left thumb is the space ring!" His voice was full of excitement and joy.

Shangguan Ziling's eyes lit up when she heard this. Is it true that King Lingxiao is a time traveler like her?

If she could get that space ring, after her little fat boy swallowed it, she would be able to enter and exit the space freely and would not be trapped in the space all the time. Thinking of this, Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but look through the space with fiery eyes at the ring on King Lingxiao's thumb.

She had to think of a way to get the ring from King Ling Xiao. She also understood that now was not the best time to act now, as it would alert the enemy.

Shangguan Ziling pondered for a moment, then said: "Little Fatty, let's not act rashly. Now we have to think about how to get out of this situation, otherwise Qiu Kui and Dong Qing won't be able to see me and will definitely come looking for me. Don't let them fall into their trap then." Her voice was full of vigilance and caution.

After hearing her words, the little fat man nodded in agreement. He knew that they needed to stay calm and think of a plan. The most important thing was to get out of this situation smoothly, and then find a chance to steal the space ring later.

King Lingxiao's gaze was as sharp and cold as the winter wind. He sensed a strange aura, as if someone was secretly watching him. He slowly turned his head and cast his gaze into the darkness.

Shangguan Ziling hid in the space, frowning. She held the little fat boy's hand tightly and whispered, "Little Fatty, this Lingxiao King seems to be looking at us?"

The little fat boy responded in a baby voice: "Maybe he just felt that we were looking at him just now. But no matter how he looks, he can't enter the master's space. Master, don't worry!" Although his voice was childish, it was full of firmness and confidence.

Shangguan Ziling felt a little relieved after hearing his words. But she was still full of doubts, "Little Fatty, this Ling Xiao King seems to have some suspicions. He may have known that someone has a space ring like him. If we want to steal the space ring from Ling Xiao King, it may be a little difficult. I'm afraid he has the same idea."

After hearing her words, the little fat boy widened his eyes, "Ah? What does the master mean?"

Shangguan Ziling looked at him and nodded, "Think about it, we know that King Lingxiao has the space ring and wants to take it away. He may have the same idea."

The little fat boy snorted coldly: "The baby only recognizes the master, no one else can snatch it away. Besides, the space ring in the master's hand can make him invisible. As long as the master does not reveal himself, no one else can find out that he has a space ring on him."

Shangguan Ziling's heart moved when she heard this. She gently raised her left hand and looked at her ring finger. She closed her eyes and controlled her thoughts.

Soon, a ring appeared on her ring finger. The ring emitted a faint purple light and looked very dazzling.

This ring is Shangguan Ziling’s Zizun Space Ring. She usually hides it to avoid attracting other people’s attention.

Shangguan Ziling looked at the ring and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

Shangguan Ziling gently touched the Purple Supreme Space Ring on her ring finger. The ring emitted a faint purple glow under the weak light, as if telling of its extraordinaryness.

Her eyes were deep and firm, and her heart was full of promises to Little Fatty. "Little Fatty, don't worry, I will definitely snatch the ring from King Lingxiao and swallow it for you, so that you can enter and exit the space freely." Her voice was gentle and firm, full of love and promises to Little Fatty.

The little fat boy raised his cute chubby face and looked at Shangguan Ziling, his eyes gleaming with anticipation. He whispered softly, "Thank you, Master." Although his voice was not loud, it was full of gratitude and trust.

Shangguan Ziling looked at the little fat boy with a smile. She reached out her hand and gently stroked his head. "Little Fatty, if we work together, we will definitely achieve our goal."

The little fat boy nodded vigorously and said, "Hmm," "Master, when the baby in your belly is born, I will take him to play with you!"

"Little Fatty, when the baby is born, he will know nothing and cannot play with you. Wait until he is one or two years old, then he will be fine!"

"Oh……"

Shangguan Ziling's eyes were deep and firm. She closed her eyes gently and began to control her thoughts.

As her thoughts flowed, the Purple Venerable Space Ring on her ring finger began to change. The light of the ring gradually dimmed, from a faint purple light to a dim light.

Afterwards, the Zizun Space Ring on Shangguan Ziling's ring finger completely disappeared, leaving no trace.

King Lingxiao stood in the empty courtyard. Even though the cold wind was blowing, it could not extinguish the anger in his heart.

He frowned, his heart full of doubts. He had just clearly felt someone spying on him in the dark, and that strong intuition made him unable to ignore it. However, now, when he looked in that direction again, he found nothing.

He walked towards the dark place step by step, his heart full of vigilance. He carefully observed the surrounding environment, but there was nothing.

King Lingxiao looked around and after making sure that there was nothing unusual, he angrily slapped the place a few times and then left in a huff.

Shangguan Ziling hid in the space, watching King Lingxiao's departing back, and couldn't help but sneer.

After a while, Shangguan Ziling walked out of the space quietly. She looked around and saw that the entire palace was brightly lit. Patrolling guards came and went, holding torches and shouting loudly, looking for someone.

She hid in the dark, pressed against the wall, trying to blend her figure into the darkness. Her breathing was rapid and shallow, without making a sound.

Shangguan Ziling moved cautiously, trying to avoid the patrolling guards. Her mind was racing, thinking of ways to escape.

Suddenly, a sound of footsteps was heard, getting closer and closer, and Shangguan Ziling immediately flashed into the space.

After the guards left, Shangguan Ziling flashed out of the space again.

This process was repeated over and over again as Shangguan Ziling passed through one room after another and crossed one threshold after another.

The palace's secret guards shuttled through the night like ghosts, their eyes as sharp as eagles, searching for any suspicious clues.

However, at this moment, a black figure quietly appeared in the backyard of the palace. It was Shangguan Ziling who was about to leave.

Shangguan Ziling was wearing a nightgown and a veil on her face, revealing only a pair of bright eyes. She was about to leave quietly, but was discovered by the secret guards.

The secret guards shouted in a low voice, like thunder exploding in the night sky: "Who is it?" Then, they quickly surrounded Shangguan Ziling like a swarm of bees.

Shangguan Ziling was shocked, but she didn't show it on her face. She knew that if she fought hard at this moment, she would have a hard time getting away.

So, she quickly took out a packet of medicine powder from the space and sprinkled it on the surrounding secret guards without hesitation. The medicine powder spread in the air and turned into a white mist. The secret guards suddenly felt dizzy and retreated one after another.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shangguan Ziling flashed and tried to escape from the scene.

However, at this moment, a cold shout came from a distance: "Who are you, thieves, how dare you act so wildly in the palace!" King Lingxiao hurried over with a team of guards and quickly surrounded Shangguan Ziling. King Lingxiao's eyes were as sharp as a knife, shooting directly at Shangguan Ziling.

Shangguan Ziling's heart sank. She took a deep breath, straightened her back, and faced King Lingxiao and the guards. A gleam of determination flashed in her eyes. She knew that she had to get out tonight no matter what.

"Who are you? How dare you steal all the treasures in my palace!" King Lingxiao stared at Shangguan Ziling viciously, his voice full of anger and murderous intent. The guards behind him also drew their swords and pointed them at Shangguan Ziling.

Shangguan Ziling sneered. She was not afraid of these guards who were facing each other with swords. She took out a handful of medicine powder from the space again and sprinkled it on everyone without hesitation.

This time the powder was stronger, and everyone suddenly felt a strong sense of dizziness and fell to the ground.

Taking advantage of this chaotic moment, Shangguan Ziling moved and disappeared into the night like a ghost. Her figure was as light as the wind and she soon disappeared into the depths of the palace.

King Ling Xiao was furious. He had never thought that this thief was so cunning that he escaped right under his nose. He roared, "Chase! You must bring him back to me!"

However, Shangguan Ziling had already gone far away, disappearing into the vast night. King Lingxiao could only look in the direction where she left, gritting his teeth in hatred.

He knew that this theft was no accident and there must be a bigger conspiracy behind it. He was determined to find out the true identity of the thief and bring him to justice.

After Shangguan Ziling escaped from Lingxiao Palace, she couldn't help but feel relieved.

However, Shangguan Ziling also knew that King Lingxiao would never give up and would continue to investigate the matter. She had to leave this place as soon as possible, reunite with Qiu Kui Dongqing and the others, and return to the palace to avoid being caught up by King Lingxiao.

Meanwhile, inside Lingxiao's palace, King Lingxiao was furious. Someone had broken into his palace at night, stolen everything from his storehouse, and even ran away right under his nose. He was so pissed off that he almost died.
