"Ah, this girl."
Han Tieshan was chased away by the middle-aged man in white, and rushed out, seeing Han Dong riding a horse towards Black Iron Mountain.
"Junior sister is going to see Jiang Feng."
Bao Longwei explained.
"For a deceased person, she almost collided with the Immortal Master."
Han Tieshan said angrily.
"Jiang Feng was raised single-handedly by the junior sister, honest and reliable, but suddenly perished due to inner demons, junior sister always found it suspicious. Now junior sister might have confird the cause of Jiang Feng’s death, and likely has words to convey to Jiang Feng."
Bao Longwei comforted.
"Girls grow up unable to be held back."
Han Tieshan was helpless, then returned to the Imperial City with Kui Han.
"Sister Dong, were you looking for ?"
In the attic a distance from Zhenbei Prison, Jiang Feng blended into a dark corner.
He anticipated that Chief Huang could live only a few days, and the anomaly of Zhenbei Prison would soon be exposed, hence ca to inspect as night fell.
Hidden far away from him.
Seeing Snowy Owl appear above the prison, a white-robed middle-aged man descended from a hundred ters high, entering the prison.
Not long after.
Han Dong’s figure erged from the prison, riding a horse towards Black Iron Mountain.
"Could that person just now be the Imperial City Sword Immortal?"
Jiang Feng was filled with curiosity towards the white-robed middle-aged man.
But fearing to alarm the other, Jiang Feng dared not approach, rely watched from afar. Now seeing Han Dong riding towards Black Iron Mountain, he hesitated and followed along.
Bao Longwei and Jiang Feng’s assumptions were correct.
Han Dong rode to the foot of the rear mountain of Black Iron Mountain, then used her body technique, racing up the mountainside to reach Jiang Feng’s grave.
"How could you not resist temptation? To absorb those spiritual energies."
Han Dong sat in front of the grave, speaking to Jiang Feng’s tombstone.
If not for spiritual energies appearing, and Chief Huang eting the sa fate, Han Dong wouldn’t easily believe Jiang Feng perished due to inner demons.
Even in death, it might be a murder.
But with the white-robed middle-aged man testifying the spiritual energy’s peril, along with Bao Longwei personally inspecting Jiang Feng’s body, Han Dong had no choice but to accept Jiang Feng’s death due to inner demons.
Thinking of this, she was overtaken by grief.
Han Dong didn’t cry, but slept by the grave for one night.
Next day.
Bao Longwei went up the mountain to find Han Dong.
"Junior sister, the dead cannot be brought back, Jiang Feng wasn’t in pain when he left, you should be at ease!"
Bao Longwei persuaded.
"What’s the situation over at Zhenbei Prison now."
Han Dong rubbed her eyes and stood.
"I just had them move the prisoners from the third floor, now it’s bustling inside, King Xiao and the Second Prince are rushing back to investigate."
Bao Longwei replied.
"Is my father still inside?"
"He left last night with Mr. Kui, returning to the Imperial City, Snow Eagle Immortal Master doesn’t let people approach easily, Seventh Prince went over in the morning, only to be stopped outside."
"Rumor has it, below Dragon Capital, there’s an Underground Palace larger than the Capital City, what does senior brother think?"
"Rumors remain rumors, so far, no trace of Underground Palace has been excavated elsewhere."
"I think there’s so truth, when I was in the south, I heard Six-ard Divine Emperor of Divine Sect ntioning Blood Wolves’ rampage is due to sothing in Dragon Capital summoning them. He instructed the Second Prince to cover the ground, preventing that thing from erging, now it seems, the object summoning the Blood Wolves might be inside the Underground Palace."
Han Dong speculated.
"Junior sister shouldn’t overthink, even if the Underground Palace contains sothing terrifying, the Holy Emperor will have ans to cope. You’ve stayed on the mountain overnight, be careful not to hurt yourself, co back with !"
Bao Longwei seed uninterested in Six-ard Divine Emperor.
Han Dong nodded and descended with Bao Longwei, upon leaving, she glanced once more at Jiang Feng’s grave, giving a gentle smile as if bidding him farewell.
After they left, Jiang Feng’s figure appeared before his own grave once more.
"Could Blood Wolves’ rampage actually relate to sothing in the Underground Palace?"
"What sort of thing can summon Blood Wolves?"
"Zhenbei Prison is indeed dangerous, hardly know if Uncle Huo and the others might be implicated?"
Jiang Feng reached the mountain top.
Gazing toward Zhenbei Prison.
Snowy Owl hovered over the prison.
It seed tireless in its flight.
Jiang Feng found it peculiar.
Then discovered, Snowy Owl was absorbing spiritual energy, threads of which were leaking from within Zhenbei Prison.
"No matter what it is, let others fight for it."
Jiang Feng dared not approach.
After confirming Han Dong was safe, he left Dragon Capital and returned to Hippo Village.
Dusk descended.
Jiang Feng heard faint tremors from the earth, traversed Laojun Mountain, arriving at a hill overlooking Dragon Capital South City Gate.
Seeing previously dispatched from various places towards the south, the Divine Arrow Army, Forbidden Army, and Wolf Slaughter Army troops, stationed magnificently outside Dragon Capital City.
The troops appeared in batches, surrounding four city gates.
"Curious, why would the Emperor transfer so many troops back to Dragon Capital?"
Typically, they’d return, dispersing gradually across northern cities, why call them all back to Dragon Capital, what if key figures rebelled?
Jiang Feng sensed sothing amiss.
The troops didn’t enter the city, instead stationed outside, forming a defensive line encircling Dragon Capital.
Initially, he suspected Xiao Zhan’s rebellion, surrounding Dragon Capital with troops, but upon seeing their formations facing outward from Dragon Capital, plus all gates opening for them, with nurous generals riding horses into the city, Jiang Feng realized these troops seed to be protecting Dragon Capital.
He felt inexplicable.
Now that the wolf packs were repelled, retreating to Forbidden Forest, although small eastern and western nations frequently harassed borders, they never managed to invade.
The Turkic King accepted peace talks, national gate had endured a period without warfare.
Could these troops be encircling Dragon Capital due to the Underground Palace?
Jiang Feng couldn’t figure it out at the mont.
In the army, he saw Xiao Zhan and the Second Prince.
Both rode into the city, heading towards the Imperial City, seemingly anxious to et the Emperor of the Great Tang.
"Dragon Capital is on the brink of major change."
"Sister Dong, Uncle Huo, don’t forget to hide."
The army encircling Dragon Capital, the abnormalities of Zhenbei Prison, discovered by Imperial City Sword Immortal, Jiang Feng decided not to enter the city tonight, but return to Laojun Mountain as a wise choice.
Yet just as he turned.
His body froze, he saw a shadow erging from the southern direction, in the distant forest, a fiery crimson fla vanished into the darkness, with faint sparks heading toward Dragon Capital.
