Bai Su chased the black figure all the way out of the secret passage.
There really were a lot of exits to this secret passageway. It was obvious that the one the black shadow was heading towards was not any of the traps that they had entered earlier.
The Imperial Palace at night seemed exceptionally quiet. Although the lamps were brightly lit, there were always hidden corners.
The shadow seemed to be especially familiar with the palace, always avoiding the patrolling guards wherever it went.
Bai Su followed him for a while but saw him sneakily enter the main hall of the emperor's office that she went to earlier.
"Could it be that you're here to steal something just like me?"
With that in mind, Bai Su wiped some dust off her face and followed behind.
The eunuchs on night watch were still lying on the ground.
When the black shadow saw this, it stood in the middle of the hall and was slightly stunned.
While he was in a daze, Bai Su suddenly sprinted forward, and with an unexpected method, she opened up his acupoints!
Withdrawing her hand, and looking at the black silhouette that could not move, Bai Su was extremely excited!
This acupuncture point was too easy to use!
She coughed lightly twice, pinched her throat, and pretended to have a thick voice. She said, "This is the first time I have used my acupuncture point technique on you. You should feel honored."
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the shadow.
This black shadow was quite tall, and its body was tall, causing people to look up at it.
He wore a black cloth that covered half of his face below his eyes.
The only eyes that were visible had a trace of anger in them.
Bai Su carelessly patted his shoulder, raised her head, and smiled at him: "Comrade, you are not as skilled as me, so don't be angry over having my acupoints pierced. I'm teaching you self-defense skills. Next time, you won't be so easily hit, do you understand? "
The black shadow's eyes flashed.
Bai Su continued: "You also came to the palace to steal things, right? What are you looking for? "
Black Shadow's pupils shrank as he stared at her: "Are you looking for something?" "What are you looking for?"
His voice was deep, low and slightly hoarse.
He didn't know if it was made up or not.
Bai Su blinked her eyes, then asked him: "Are you familiar with this palace?"
"Yes."
"Then do you know where the Emperor hid his things?"
After a moment of silence, the black shadow asked, "You've met the Emperor?"
"No. If I were to meet the Emperor, would I still be alive here? " After Bai Su finished her words out of reflex, she suddenly realized that the one who was asking the question was her, but she had instead answered the question in return.
The black shadow lightly said, "Since you haven't seen the Emperor before, how do you know that he's old?"
"…"
Bai Su blinked her eyes. It is said that the new Emperor of Ling Tian Empire is about to ascend to the throne, so he should be very young. "
Feeling that she was being led astray, Bai Su glared at the black figure unhappily and spoke angrily, "Hurry and answer my question."
The black shadow was quiet for a moment, then said. "Miss, are you not a person of Ling Tian Empire?"
"Of course not …" Bai Su suddenly stopped talking, and pulled out the black figure's wrist, "How do you know that I am not a man?"
The black shadow looked at her with a hint of a smile in his eyes. "Daughter's Incense."
It was just three short words, yet Bai Su seemed to have been struck by lightning, her entire body stiffened, and was unable to move at all.
Daughter incense?
There had once been a person who had seen through her female identity with a single glance. He had also told her this, telling her that the fragrance of her daughter was not hidden.
Seeing Bai Su's shock, the black shadow suddenly spoke: "What are you looking for? I am very familiar with this palace, so maybe I can help you. "
Bai Su regained her senses, looking at the black figure in a daze.
His eyes, if not filled with anger, were actually very similar to someone when he was smiling.
Although he wanted to pull off the black cloth to have a look, so what? She had never seen that person's appearance. Even if she had, she wouldn't know whether he was him or not.
Bai Su let go of his wrist, lightly inhaled, and said: "What is your relationship with the two people just now? Why did he want to meet them in the secret passage? "What are you planning?"
The light in the black figure's eyes changed and was immediately filled with killing intent. Speak, what did you hear? "
Sensing his killing intent, Bai Su was slightly startled: "Do you think that I would ask you this question if I heard anything?"
The black figure relaxed a little, but still looked at Bai Su with a scrutinizing gaze.
Bai Su knew that even if she continued to ask him about what she had said to Zither String Qin Mo, she wouldn't be able to get anything out of him. So she took a step forward, approached him, and said in a low voice, "You just said that you are very familiar with this palace? "If you can tell me the whereabouts of something, I'll let you go. Otherwise …"
"Or what?" The shadow narrowed its eyes dangerously. "No one has ever dared threaten me."
Bai Su raised her eyebrows, and said indifferently: "There has to be a beginning to everything. Listen up, if you don't speak the truth, this young noble will make you the same as them! "
With that, she pointed at the eunuch lying on the ground.
The black figure's eyes changed, she lowered her head and looked at her lower body, raising her head, she glared at Bai Su: "You!"
"…"
Bai Su looked him up and down, and could not help but blink her eyes when she realized what he meant, and innocently said: "This Young Master means for you to lie on the ground like them … Think about it yourself. Don't blame me. "
"…"
The black shadow's expression changed again and again. It was simply too good-looking.
Bai Su was so happy that her eyes were about to bloom.
"However, if you don't obediently answer my question, I won't mind turning you into the same person as them."
The expression in the black shadow's eyes became more and more unsightly.
Bai Su dared to bet that if he could move, he would definitely grab her neck and pinch her to death.
She was very glad that she had worked hard these past few days to learn the acupuncture points. Otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to control him.
"What do you want to know?" The black figure calmed down and asked Bai Su.
Bai Su blinked her eyes, and patted his shoulder while smiling: "Un, is this the right choice? "If you cooperate with me obediently, I will do the same to you and to everyone else."
This fellow had the ability to anger an ox to death at any moment!
The shadow coldly said, "If you have something to say, say it."
Bai Su thought for a while, then said: "Let me ask you, do you know where the Emperor's things are kept?"
"What are you looking for?"
"Five colors …" Bai Su almost blurted it out, but when he thought about how she wanted to find the Five-Colored Profound Jade Fragment, he realized that it was a huge matter and even Mu Yuntian did not know about it. Naturally, she could not easily tell others about it, so she changed her tone and said, "There is a very important thing in the hands of the Ling Tian Empire Emperor."
Black Shadow's pupils shrank as he said calmly: "Are you looking for Five-Colored Profound Jade Fragment?"
"How do you know …" Bai Su's mouth dropped open, before she could even finish, she immediately covered it with her hands.
The black shadow lightly said, "You said it yourself."
Bai Su clenched her teeth in anger: "What are you trying to say! What a cunning fox! "
The black shadow laughed. "You're too stupid."
"…"
Bai Su glared at the black figure fiercely, she wanted to skin him alive and eat him alive!
"You don't have to look at me like that. I'm speaking the truth. " After being quiet for a while, the black shadow said indifferently, "Legend has it that before all the emperors of the Ling Tian Empire pass on their lives, they will pass on this Five-Colored Profound Jade Fragment, which symbolizes the strength of nations and their people, to the next emperor. So, you know where to look? "
"Before the previous kings die, would they pass it on to the next emperor?" Bai Su muttered, "That thing must be on Crown Prince now, I need to think of a way to get closer to him to get it."
The black shadow raised an eyebrow. "Miss, can you let me go now?"
Bai Su acted as if he did not hear him, and mumbled to herself: "How can I get close to the Crown Prince? The inauguration ceremony? Yes, I have to find a way to go to the inauguration ceremony. "
After saying that, Bai Su raised her head, and excitedly retreated out of the hall while smiling merrily at the black figure: "Thank you, if I could get the treasures, the next time I see you, I would definitely not be like this … "I've hit your acupoint."
"Hey!" "What are you running so fast for? You haven't even helped me to unlock my acupoints! "
Bai Su's voice gradually grew distant, "At most, your acupoints will be automatically unlocked after half a cup of tea's worth of time. Be at ease and wait."
What a joke. She didn't even know how good that person's martial arts was. If he didn't run now, then when would he!
After the excitement, there would be a shock.
Bai Su finally found a clue regarding the Five-Colored Profound Jade, and was ecstatically trying to find the north. In the blink of an eye, she had really found the north!
"Don't tell me he got lost again!" Bai Su slapped her head, she looked around at the unfamiliar environment around him, and felt like dying!
Just as she was about to flee in panic, a shadow flashed by her side and grabbed her arm. "Come with me."
Bai Su turned around with a face full of pleasant surprise: "Mu Yuntian! How good of you to come! I almost couldn't find my way out again. "
If he was not dressed in purple, who else could the magnificent Mu Yuntian be?
Mu Yuntian turned around and gave her the look of "I knew you would get lost".
A group of patrolling guards suddenly appeared not too far away, walking towards them.
The color in Mu Yuntian's eyes changed. He grabbed Bai Su's waist and carried her into the air.
His body danced in the air, and the slightly cold air gave people a refreshing feeling.
Looking at this man who had brought her here to act cool and fly, Bai Su suddenly felt that she was actually very happy …
But, wait!
"Mu, Mu, Mu Yuntian … "When did you recover your martial arts?" Bai Su realized in a slow half beat that it wasn't she who was carrying Mu Yuntian flying, but Mu Yuntian who was bringing her flying instead.
But didn't he give her all of his inner force cultivation? Why was he still using Qing Gong?
The corner of Mu Yuntian's mouth twitched.
Crap! In a moment of desperation, he forgot to hide his strength.
"That …" He stammered, "If you recover just a little bit, you can fly for a bit …"
Bai Su blinked his eyes: "Then you also pretended to be weak in the secret passage to get my sympathy!"
"…" Mu Yuntian was speechless.
Bai Su grinded her teeth in anger: "Mu Yuntian, you bastard!"
