Chapter 1831: Big Trouble
ped onto the stairs, and walked upwards.For every step he takes upward, the steps above him grow another layer.He had walked through dozens of levels, but the distance to the high seat remained unchan..."Very well, since your Majesty is so eager to know my true face, I shall show you. It's nothing to be alarmed about." The masked man spoke, raising a hand and removing the black mask from his face.
Now, the true face of the masked man was revealed to Xiang Tianhe.
“You…”
Xiang Tianhe's heart skipped a beat, and his face changed drastically!
……
Inside the Side Golden Hall, Fang Yu leaned against the main seat, releasing his divine sense and instantly shrouding the entire imperial palace.
The East Palace, where the crown prince resided, had a formation that blocked divine sense power.
"Seems like you're well-prepared, but... this formation won't stop me." Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and activated the Eye of the Dao.
"Whoosh!"
The golden cross sword turned, and the entire formation seemed to vanish into thin air.
Fang Yu could clearly see what was going on inside.
What he saw first was the celestial beings in the main hall, deep in conversation.
Including the crown prince, everyone from the Heavenly Palace was present.
They seem to be talking about something, with serious expressions.
"Something's not right." Fang Yu frowned slightly, and the Eye of the Great Dao's vision immediately enlarged.
At this point, Fang Yu could see that the seven people conversing in the hall were all wooden figures!
This is a trick!
"Ran!"
Fang Yu's eyes flickered, his divine sense spreading out again, searching for the group's whereabouts throughout the entire palace, but he found nothing.
On the contrary, when the Eye of the Dao pierced through the Donggong's formation, he found something unusual in a well at the rear of the main hall.
Fang Yu immediately stood up, the golden cross sword in his eyes stopped rotating.
He stepped out of the side golden hall, leaped into the air.
Within the palace, airship travel was forbidden, but Fang Yu's speed was extremely fast, and his aura was not strong, so he did not attract anyone's attention.
He quickly arrived at the East Palace and directly flew into the backyard.
As soon as Fang Yu fell from the sky, he arrived before the deep well.
Looking back from the present, the well is pitch black.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, placing his right hand over the well opening and releasing a burst of true energy.
Soon, a headless body floated out of the well.
The blood was still flowing, the bodies still warm.
Judging from the clothing and physique, this headless corpse belongs to... Elder Changjian from Tiangong!
Within half an hour of returning to the palace, including the crown prince, all the celestial beings from the Heavenly Palace disappeared. Elder Chang Jian's body was found in the well of the East Palace courtyard
What's going on
Fang Yu's brows furrowed.
He could confirm that the corpse before him was indeed Chang Jian's.
"Bang bang bang..."
Just as Fang Yu was still pondering, a heavy series of footsteps suddenly came from around him, along with numerous sharp auras.
In a short while, the entire backyard was surrounded by a group of guards clad in white gold armor.
"Daredevil! To kill in the palace!" shouted the soldiers at the head of the charge.
Judging from their attire, these soldiers are the guards of the Eastern Palace, or perhaps... the personal guard of the prince.
"Something seems to be wrong." Fang Yu shook his head and threw the headless corpse on the ground.
He didn't care about the guards in front of him at all. All he wanted to know was... where had the prince and his people gone
If they wanted to use deception to fool Fang Yu and escape in time... why was their elder Chang Jian killed, left with a headless corpse
To kill an elder, was it just to find a reason to frame Fang Yu and turn the tables on him
It's illogical for the Prince to act this way. Even if he intended to make such a move, he could have just used an ordinary disciple as a scapegoat. It's inconceivable that he would choose a high-ranking elder for this purpose.
There are many doubts. But no matter what, we need to track them down first to figure out the answers to these questions.
Fang Yu turned his head, the golden cross sword in his pupils spinning rapidly.
He will try to determine the direction the crown prince and his party left by catching the slightest traces of their scent within the main hall!
Fan Yu's eyes narrowed, quickly searching for any traces left within the main hall.
The aura of the Shen Xing Fu... East direction.
Fan Yu looked up and gazed towards the east.
"He escaped that way, but they used a divine travel talisman... I don't know if there's still a chance to catch up." Fang Yu frowned and raised his hand to take out a divine travel talisman as well.
"Seize this man at once!" a guard shouted.
"Boom!"
No sooner had the words left her mouth than an explosion echoed through the center of the courtyard!
A wave of terror erupted, sending the guards flying backwards.
""
...and Fang Yu had already transformed into a beam of light, disappearing into the air.
He entered the void and pursued the direction where the Crown Prince and others had left.
"Chasing them like this is impossible. They're already within the Void Realm." Fang Yu's eyes flickered, thinking to himself, "But if I were in the Void Realm, and used the Divine Movement Talisman again, modifying it slightly with the Eye of the Great Dao, could I build another Void Realm Wouldn't that double my speed"
Thinking this way, Fang Yu had already taken out a divine flight talisman.
He did as he thought.
After attaining enlightenment regarding the cultivation fruits of formations, this operation became quite simple for him.
"Whoosh!"
In a short while, Fang Yu completed his idea. Inside the aerial domain, he opened more air domains.
For him, the speed within the Void was the same, but the distance he covered outside increased exponentially!
……
"Whoosh..."
On their way to the Heavenly Palace, the Seven of the Heavenly Palace were also in the Realm of Void.
"My child, Fang Yu is catching up."
The ever-present sword by the prince's side, Chang Jian, flickered his eyes and spoke.
"How did you know..." The prince turned to Changjian, and asked.
However, at that moment, he suddenly noticed something was amiss with Chang Jian's expression.
Even his aura seemed to have undergone a strange shift.
"You are not the Elder Chang!" The prince's face changed, wanting to release his aura.
Just at that moment, he found his body stiff and unable to move.
His scent, it was all held back within him.
The prince turned his head to look behind him, and he found that Taotao and the other four disciples of the Heavenly Palace were all unconscious!
"Prince, we can talk this through."
The face of the sword before him transformed, becoming a person wearing a black mask!
"Who are you! What happened to Elder Chang!" The prince's heart pounded, and he demanded an answer in a loud voice.
"None of that matters. The only thing you need to worry about right now is… how to deal with Fang Yu coming after you." the masked man said coldly.
"You...what do you want" The prince panted, forcing himself to calm down, and asked.
“It’s very simple, the Crown Prince only needs to agree to one condition of mine, and I will continue down this path, ensuring your safe return to Heaven.” The masked man said, “But if you are unwilling… then I will expel you from the Void Realm, and… while in the Void Realm, Fang Yu, who is chasing after you, will catch up soon… By then, the Crown Prince’s situation will not be very good.”
The prince's face was pale, looking at the masked man in front of him, he couldn't speak.
His brain was racing, helping him understand the situation at hand.
Who is this masked man Where did Elder Changjian go! What conditions does the masked man want him to agree to! What will happen if Fangyu catches up...
The prince felt his brain was about to explode, and his heart pounded wildly.
He knew he was in big trouble!
"Prince, you don't have many choices left. Make a decision quickly. My terms won't be too harsh, I assure you. It's something you can definitely accomplish," the masked man said nonchalantly.
"You, what do you want...," the prince asked, his face grim.
"Boom!"
Just then, a blast rang out from ahead!
The overwhelming spatial force exploded, shattering the entire Void Realm!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…"
In the void, the prince and his party were all thrown out of the air.
"How is it possible to catch up so quickly..."
The masked man's only exposed eyes widened in shock, but quickly returned to their usual calmness.
He looked at the prince flying toward the distance and murmured, "Since it has come to this, let it be... This portion of the benefits will be reclaimed later, for now, I shall depart."
"Whoosh..."
The masked man's figure blurred in the air and soon vanished without a trace.
And the prince who had been blasted away, regained control of his body in mid-air, released his aura, and stabilized his figure.
He looked ahead, searching for the remaining five disciples of the Heavenly Palace.
He looked around, but only found four disciples. He didn't see Peach!
Taotao must not get into trouble!
The crown prince's face was ashen, and he immediately released his divine sense.
"Are you looking for her"
However, at that very moment, a voice reached the prince's ears.
The prince immediately turned to the left, his face changing dramatically.
At this moment, Fang Yu appeared before him, less than fifty meters away.s a will that coexisted with the Land of Death, being separated and slain... Such an ending, it had not expected at all.It also dreamed of becoming a god, but it died before even reaching halfway.I ca...
