C196 Holy Maiden

Outside, the Ancient Kingdom of Di Ran's Imperial Palace looked extremely grand. Its majestic and vast aura was far, far away from the Eastern Xia Empire's Imperial Palace where Long Chenhao was at.

All the guards on the city wall were emitting auras and were not weaker than the crown sage. Long Chenhao was even more respectful towards the Ancient Kingdom of Di Ran as a whole.

The palace doors were extremely thick, and just looking at them from the outside gave off a heavy and heavy feeling, making it hard to breathe.

The guards in front of the imperial palace stepped forward to stop Long Chenhao's group. They bowed to them first, then said to them: "Young Masters, please show me your invitation."

Long Chenhao and the others all took out their invitation cards one after another, and then quickly walked forward to the group of guards. After examining the invitation cards in Long Chenhao and the others' hands, they nodded towards the guards behind them.

"Young masters, please come in!" The guard respectfully bowed towards Long Chenhao and the others.

After that, Long Chenhao and his group majestically entered the palace. The guards behind them also planned to follow them, but they were all stopped.

"Who are you people?" One of the guards stepped forward to stop them.

"We are protecting our young master's subordinates. For the sake of our young master's safety, we are allowed to enter."

The guards at the entrance of the palace looked at the experts from the various powers and said with a smile, "Rest assured, your young master will be fine."

However, the experts of the various factions did not show any intention of retreating. He asked the guards in front of the palace, "If something happens, will you be able to shoulder this responsibility?"

"Haha ~" The imperial palace guards loudly laughed, looking at these so-called experts with disdain in their eyes.

"If even we can't protect your master, do you think that you can rely on your strength to protect him?" In the face of the provocation from the guards, the experts from various forces were extremely displeased.

They all loathed the imperial family's power and influence. Now that these imperial families were here to challenge the dignity of their families, they couldn't take it lying down no matter what they said.

Just as the two of them were arguing, a middle-aged man slowly descended from the top of the city walls. He shouted to the so-called experts below, "Who dares to cause trouble here?"

"The people who cause trouble will be killed in the most important places of the royal family."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, the guards in front of the palace all put away their mischievous smiles and pulled out their swords.

The crown appeared in front of them, the five shining corona ring s were all extremely dazzling among the experts of various forces. This made them exclaim in their hearts, the Ancient Kingdom of Di Ran's royal family was indeed extraordinary.

Even the guards in front of the palace were this strong. It seemed that they had been worrying too much this time. After an awkward smile, the experts from various forces all withdrew from the palace.

Their mission here was to protect the safety of their young master. If there was any conflict with the guards of the Ancient Kingdom of Di Ran Royal Family, they would probably be punished when they returned to their families.

The middle-aged man looked at the various experts and spoke, "Today's gathering was hosted by the Emperor, so we cannot be careless. Do you all know that?"

"Yes." The surrounding guards replied in unison. They were filled with fear of the middle-aged man in front of them, and did not dare to slack off his orders.

Afterward, the other young talents all rushed into the palace. Their subordinates all stood behind them tactfully after seeing the many people standing outside, causing the other experts to feel extremely displeased.

"Clank, clank, clank, clank!"

The crisp sound of a bell could be heard. It was a pleasant sound on this fretful road.

The bell rang from a snow-white carriage, attracting everyone's attention. The group moved extremely slowly and without any hurry, as if they were sightseeing.

The carriage was surrounded by a white curtain, and it was filled with people dressed in Temple of the Crown robes.

Seeing the person walking towards them, everyone's gaze turned towards him. They could tell from his clothes that this group of people were from Temple of the Crown, but who didn't know about the carriage.

"Clang ~ Clang ~ ~" The crisp sound of the bell rang out once more, and the imperial palace guards quickly stood up.

The middle-aged man that had appeared before appeared before everyone once more. However, this time, his previous style had changed and his face was now filled with respect.

When they arrived at the front of the palace, the guards didn't even bother to ask, directly opening up a path for them to pass through.

"Stop!" A clear and melodious voice of a girl rang out from the carriage. It was as clear and melodious as a silver bell.

It gave people a feeling of relaxation and happiness.

"Ancient Kingdom of Di Ran, Commander Tie of the Imperial Palace greets the Holy Maiden of the Temple of the Crown." The middle-aged man gave a huge bow to the carriage as he spoke respectfully.

The girl looked down at the middle-aged man from the carriage and said, "Commander Tie doesn't need to perform such a great ceremony. Wan-Er, show our invitation card to the commander!"

"Since she is the Holy Maiden, there is no need to check." The middle-aged man said gently.

"It's better to take a look, it's easier this way for Commander Tie."

"Then I'll follow the Holy Maiden's arrangements."

Commander Tie quickly inspected their invitation cards before respectfully handing them back to Jian Chen.

"Holy Maiden, your invitation has been examined and no problems have been found."

"That's good then. I'm just troubling Commander Tie. I wonder if that little thief who appeared a few days ago has been caught?" The holy maiden's subordinate withdrew the invitation and asked Commander Tie.

"Not at the moment. There will definitely be news about it in less time. I'll have to trouble the Holy Maiden for that."

The Holy Maiden nodded, and then walked into the palace.

The crisp sound of the bell had once again rang out in the surrounding area. Watching the mighty group of people walk inside, the experts from various forces felt extremely uncomfortable.

They were all stopped outside, but this group of people swaggered in. They were extremely unhappy, but they could not say anything. After all, she was the holy maiden of the Temple of the Crown, and her identity was not something any ordinary power could afford to offend.

Under the guidance of the maids in the palace, Long Chenhao's group arrived at a room. Inside the room, there were many bizarre fruits and decorations of different styles.
