Huang Sha quickly nodded his head. In his mind, his cousin was the person with the highest martial arts. Yet, that person had knocked him out with a single blow. How could he dare to be rash?

However, from the way the two of them dressed, it seemed that they weren't from Loess Empire. And why would they appear in the Imperial City? Huang Sha was Huang Zhaoming's favorite waiter. Almost all major matters passed through his hands. Now that Huang Zhaoming was dead, he could take advantage of these two experts to save his own life.

Thinking of this, he decided to listen to the words of these two people.

Wu Kong pulled up the person on the ground and supported him directly. He followed Huang Sha and turned seven times before arriving at a simple house.

The imperial city of the Loess Kingdom was already in chaos, so no one else had discovered their whereabouts. Huang Sha brought the two of them out of the palace and carefully looked around before taking out a set of keys to open the gates.

There was a creaking sound, and inside the simple door was actually an incomparably luxurious structure. Luo Liya didn't think that it was necessary to take another look at the yellow sand in front of her. It must have an extremely important position in front of Huang Zhaoming, otherwise how could he build such a room in such a close proximity?

But then he thought that with his rash behavior, he must have been targeted long ago. Thus, he asked, "Is this place safe?"

Huang Sha closed the door first, then said to Luo Liya in a low voice, "Don't worry Miss, this was originally the residence of the deceased soldier, and people often call it an unlucky place, so very few people come in and out."

"The dead soldier?" No wonder there was such a good spot.

"Yes, Miss, please come in."

Huang Sha knew that these two people definitely had a lot of questions to ask, so he invited them in first.

There was no one in the room, but it was spotless. Luo Liya realized that Huang Sha seemed to be confused, and she became more cautious as well. When she entered the room, she looked around.

"A few years ago, Crown Prince Huang encountered a plague. The minister of war thought he was unlucky, so he suggested to the king that he should be expelled. The king was unwilling to do so, but the soldiers secretly sent people to expel the crown prince from the city. After the king found out, he sent many people to find the crown prince, but none of them succeeded. In one night, the General's family was massacred. This time, Crown Prince Huang has returned, and the king is very happy. "

At this point, Yellow Sand suddenly stopped. Luo Liya and Wukong heard this and could only ask, "Then how did the King die? How could you have any relationship with the crown prince? "

Huang Sha let out a light sigh, his eyes filled with tears, "This is a long story."

It turned out that Huang Sha's old mother had suffered from a serious illness, and he couldn't find a cure for it no matter how hard he tried. Then one day his distant cousin came over and said that someone could cure his mother's illness, and he believed him. Soon, his mother's illness was completely cured, and Huang Sha was very happy. One day, when he was on the street with his cousin, he saw the crown prince holding a stalk of grass and mumbling to his cousin. Only when he got closer did he hear clearly that the crown prince wanted his cousin to give him the immortal grass and let him consume it for the king. Furthermore, he had not been filial out for so many years, and the country was in chaos. If he were to donate more immortal herbs, he might get a lot of discussion from the officials. In any case, Huang Sha felt that Crown Prince Huang was truly a loyal and filial person. Thus, when his cousin passed him the immortal grass, he didn't hesitate for a moment and arranged for the chef to cook it for Huang Zhaoming. Unexpectedly, the cook brought the medicine to the king to take, almost a few minutes after the sudden death. Initially, Huang Sha was still surprised. However, upon discovering that the king had suddenly died, the crown prince led his men to occupy the palace and swiftly announce the news of the king's death. The yellow sand sensed the danger and hurriedly escaped.

It was said that the moment he left, those who delivered the medicine were all executed by Crown Prince Huang.

He was also on the way to escape when he was stopped by his cousin.

Luo Liya and Wu Kong saw the rest.

Luo Liya let out a long sigh. She never thought that the famous Huang Zhaoming from the continent would actually die like this. Furthermore, it came from his most beloved son. Ever since the disappearance of the crown prince, he had never stopped searching for his son, nor had he ever chosen his other son as his crown prince. Who would have thought that he would fall into the hands of Crown Prince Huang in the end?

In other words, the Crown Prince was a vicious man.

She glanced at the sand. "Where is your mother now?" This Huang Sha wasn't a bad person, and he was afraid that he was tricked by the crown prince to do such a thing. From his words and actions, it could be seen that he was a filial person. At the very least, he still needed two people to help him escape danger, so he wouldn't do anything bad.

But even so, Luo Liya and Wukong did not know each other in the Royal Capital, so they still needed someone to rely on. Huang Sha's mother should be a good puppet.

Hearing Luo Liya's words, Huang Sha trembled from head to toe, "My mother, she went back to her hometown."

"Why are you so scared when you go back home?"

Wu Kong, on the other hand, felt that things were not that simple. After all, this Huang Sha was the king's favorite and had seen quite a few things. However, after hearing Luo Liya's words, he started to tremble in fear.

Wu Kong looked around and found that Huang Sha's gaze was focused on a spot on the chair in front of him. Just as Wu Kong followed his gaze, he quickly turned his head away.

There was a mechanism in this chair. Even Huang Sha's mother would probably be here.

Thinking of this, Wu Kong stretched out his hand to touch the chair in front of him. He found a special depression in the chair and pressed it down.

Just as he expected, a thunderous sound rang out as a hidden door appeared behind Wu Kong.

Huang Sha slumped to the ground. He could not say anything else.

Luo Liya and Wukong hurriedly got up and moved to both sides of the door. They carefully observed the situation in the room.

"Sha'er, are you back?"

Just as the two of them were worried, they suddenly heard an old voice. They immediately saw a kind old lady in her sixties who was leaning on a walking stick walk out from the inner room.

Huang Sha had long stood up from the ground, supporting his mother with a smile. "That's right, mother, I've brought two friends to see you."

Huang Sha introduced Luo Liya and Wu Kong to the old man as he spoke.

The two of them politely greeted the old man, and the old man went back to rest later. When Luo Liya and Wu Kong saw this scene, they truly felt relieved for Huang Sha. However, the two of them decided to live together with the old man. They would help Huang Sha take care of his mother.

After settling down, Luo Liya and Wukong prepared to interrogate Huang Sha's cousin, but what was strange was that the person hadn't woken up yet. It wasn't until the morning of the next day that the two discovered that the person had somehow woken up. It was as though he had swallowed the poison in his mouth after waking up.

What made Luo Liya even more baffled was that despite the internal strife within the Imperial City, the external troubles had no effect at all. Asked Huang Sha why Fire Brilliance Congress had retreated, Huang Sha was also not too clear on why. He only said that Huang Zhaoming's meaning seemed to be that Crown Prince Huang and Fire Brilliance Empire had reached an agreement.

"Peace?" "Luo Liya was very surprised, the greedy Dongli Zhenren, how could they negotiate with the Loess Empire?" Hadn't he always coveted the treasures of the Loess Kingdom? "How is this possible!?"

After Huang Sha left, Luo Liya and Wu Kong discussed the matter.

"Unless they made some secret agreement regarding the treasure."

Wu Kong's expression was also rather unsightly. If the matter regarding the stone room was discovered by Dongli Jiuchen, then destroying the entire continent would also happen in an instant.

On the other hand, Luo Liya was more worried about the consequences if Dong Li were able to obtain that room's treasure book. She wondered how much suffering the citizens of the Jade Water Nation would suffer.

However, just as the two of them were worried, they suddenly heard a report from Huang Sha, "The people you told me to find had been found. It is said that they have been sent to Fire Nation by Crown Prince Huang."

"What!" Hearing this, Luo Liya jumped up from her stool. She had sent Huang Sha to find out the whereabouts of Xu Shang and the rest last night, but did not expect to receive such news so early in the morning!

At the same time, Huang Sha also found out about Luo Liya and Wu Kong's identities, and he couldn't help but plan things out in his heart. Since the crown prince had given these two men's accomplices to Huo Yaoguo, then, if he were to report their whereabouts, wouldn't that be equivalent to his own life?

Luo Liya looked at the rolling yellow sand in her eyes and immediately understood his thoughts. She did not dare to completely believe what he had said and quickly pulled Wu Kong away.

They could have threatened him with the truth, but they felt that this action was too despicable. So as long as they gave up, the two of them would set out on their journey to find Teacher Xu Shang.

The two of them had just walked out of Huang Sha's mansion when they were startled by the mournful music on the road.

Crown Prince Huang had announced to the public that Huang Zhaoming was suffering from an illness and could not be cured completely. At this time, the national grief, he led the call for the national singing for Huang Zhaoming. The people of Loess Empire who did not know the reason were just satisfied with the peace negotiation between Crown Prince Huang and the Fire Nation, so as to avoid the war in Loess Country. Seeing that he was extremely loyal and filial, she gave birth to an endless amount of support for him. With the deaths of those who knew about the news, before Huang Zhaoming's funeral ended, the crowd began to cheer for Crown Prince Huang.

When Luo Liya and Wukong were going out, they happened to meet the honor guard of the crown prince. They hurriedly moved to the side and saw all the citizens kneeling down. No one dared to not feel respect for the crown prince.

Luo Liya could faintly feel that another alliance had formed. He quickly took advantage of the flow of people to leave Loess Country, and decided to return home first before doing anything else.

Due to the fact that the entire city was filled with mourners, the two of them borrowed a set of white clothes and went straight for the city gate.

There were too many people on the street, so the two didn't dare to act too ostentatiously. They walked with their eyebrows raised and their heads lowered, but nothing happened.

Nothing unusual happened except that a child hit him on the road.

Until the two of them arrived at the city gate.

Luo Liya was wearing a white dress made of women from Loess Country. She looked shorter than most of the other people from the Loess Empire. Wu Kong, who was not far behind her, followed her every step of the way. What's more, the two of them were in the midst of a national crisis. Walking out of the city gates made the guards feel that it was even more unimaginable.
