Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 972 - 932: This Lord

However, when Leng Yu saw the other party, she felt flustered, a sense of fear creeping in, fearing that the other party would recognize her.

As for this group of young palace maidens, the mont they saw the two people, they were similarly taken aback, and upon realizing that the person approaching was indeed Lin Yi, they too were scared out of their wits.

What’s more, the fear in their hearts was far stronger than the fear in Leng Yu’s heart. They were utterly terrified of this man standing before them.

One must understand the rumors about this man within the harem, which are that he kills without batting an eyelid.

Anyone who has offended him can be wiped out with a simple wave of his hand.

This was entirely due to Lin Yi’s actions on that one night, establishing his reputation.

Not only in the hearts of these young palace maidens; it’s also believed throughout the entire imperial palace, including those guards at the ti, that Lin Yi is seen as a murderous fiend.

Moreover, within their hearts, they’ve made a secret resolution that under no circumstances will they ever provoke this man.

And now, unexpectedly, they find themselves directly facing him, witnessing him first-hand. How could this not terrify these inexperienced palace maidens?

Seeing this situation, Lin Yi felt sowhat helpless too. It was obvious that both parties were extrely frightened; naturally, he himself was not included among them.

He felt rather helpless about this, but also understanding.

Although Leng Yu, being the General’s descendant, was recently bestowed the title of Grand General, she was still, at the end of the day, just an inexperienced woman.

The most crucial point was that her family’s strength wasn’t overly powerful, and hence when confronted with imperial authority, she instinctively displayed her inner fear.

As for the fear among the palace maidens? That too left Lin Yi feeling quite helpless. That night, it could be said that he acted viciously out of sheer necessity; had he not acted ruthlessly, he might not have been able to walk through the royal palace as he does now.

As for those ministers, they would not so swiftly attach themselves to the Emperor’s position as they do now.

As the two parties were about to et, as the palace maidens were trembling in fear, seemingly about to kneel and greet him, Lin Yi quickly waved his hand discreetly at them.

Fearing that Leng Yu might see, he made a very subtle gesture, and then quickly signaled to one of the palace maidens with his eyes.

However, this palace maiden dared not raise her head to look at him, keeping her head bowed as if afraid her appearance would scare him, which left Lin Yi feeling a bit helpless.

But there was nothing he could do. He was gesturing with his hand, yet they couldn’t see it, which made Lin Yi rapidly think through solutions in his mind, trying to figure out how to prevent them from revealing his identity.

After all, the situation had reached this point. If he were to reveal to Leng Yu that he was Yu Wang, there would be no fun left.

"Ahem, um, may I ask you all a question? Is the direction to the Imperial Council Hall this way?"

Despite them not looking at him, once cured, Lin Yi simply cleared his throat and first spoke to the young palace maidens.

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s voice, the palace maid was startled and shivered all over.

When they heard what Lin Yi said, they were stunned, simultaneously raising their heads to look at Lin Yi, sowhat uncertainly.

At that mont, with just a subconscious action, they instantly saw Lin Yi’s face, but why was the King winking at them?

Not only did he wink, but he also subtly waved his hand at them. What on earth did this an?

In that instant, the young palace maidens were completely flabbergasted, opening their mouths as if to greet the King.

Just as they were about to salute and speak, they were suddenly glared at by the King.

This movent scared them to death, making them tremble all over, and dare not utter another word.

anwhile, beside Lin Yi, Leng Yu was extrely nervous, inwardly blaming Lin Yi.

Why speak to them now of all tis?

If they pretended not to see, they might have slipped past unnoticed.

Now that he’s engaged them in conversation, the other party will surely figure out that the two of them are not palace mbers, and their cover will be blown, won’t it?

If they actually call the guards, things would beco unmanageable.

Of course, despite this, she didn’t truly bla Lin Yi; after all, she was unconditionally supportive of whatever decisions Lin Yi made.

anwhile, as Lin Yi glared at them once more, he quickly spoke again, and asked gently:

"May I ask you palace maidens if the route to the Imperial Council Hall is along this path?"

Upon hearing this question again, the leading palace maiden, though terrified, nervously replied:

"Your...Your Majesty,"

As soon as she began to speak, she was once again glared at by Lin Yi, whose fierce glare made her swallow back the words she was about to say.

But this ti, she seed to understand sothing.

It seed like whenever she called him ’King,’ he would glare at her. Could it be that he doesn’t wish to be addressed as King?

While she was puzzled, Lin Yi glanced at Leng Yu beside him, then subtly shook his arm again. This ti, the palace maiden finally understood what was happening.

Oh, he doesn’t want this beautiful woman to know his identity as the King. They should have said so earlier; they’ve been scared for nothing.

Imdiately, she bent slightly and spoke:

"Yes, Esteed Sir, the direction to the Imperial Council Hall is to continue down this path, up to the intersection ahead. Then turn right, walk another 300 steps, and take another left, go 1500 steps, then right another 3000 steps, and you’ll arrive there."

Upon hearing these directions, Leng Yu was completely dumbfounded.

Left a few hundred steps, then a few thousand steps; just how far is it? Exactly how large is this royal palace?

However, upon hearing this, Lin Yi nodded smilingly, then responded to them with a smile:

"Thank you very much, Sister. Oh, by the way, I have sothing here. Later, take it to find Yu Wang and say I sent you."

While saying this, he reached into his pocket and retrieved a jade pendant.
