"So, what exactly did your family teach you?"
The Taibo Minister quickly replied,
"My family has taught Dreamsend, Ji ng, Salty Ascendance, the Three Dreams Technique, able to see Jade On, Tile On, Origin On, the three ons’ signs.
Moreover, Lianshan, Gui Cang, Zhou Yi, calculations of the three classics, divining and questioning the divine and ghosts, observing the fate of the nation."
Tie Dan was amused upon hearing this,
"Ha, so that’s impressive, then why don’t you calculate for , is this nation currently auspicious or in danger?"
The Taibo Minister hesitated for a mont...
Tie Dan raised his fist.
The Taibo Minister hurriedly bowed down, saying,
"If the nation is to prosper, there must be auspicious signs; if the nation is to perish, there must be evil entities. Mountains collapse, rivers dry up, fat and blood wither, high danger descends, divine and ghosts erge. These are ominous signs of the nation."
Tie Dan laughed,
"Oh, are you implying I’m an evil entity?"
The Taibo Minister shook his hands continuously, but with clear peripheral sight, he furtively glanced at the Broken Jade,
"No no no, not saying you..."
At this, Tie Dan was certain, this guy could indeed ’see’,
"Is it still following ?"
The Taibo Minister nodded.
Then Tie Dan asked,
"Then ask it for , who is its master referring to, what does dawn an, does it an I should slay until dawn, or is there a set ti to eradicate the Immortal Palace?"
The Taibo Minister was startled!
Tie Dan swung his fist,
"Ask."
The Taibo Minister had no choice, pulling out a handful of copper coins, chanting under his breath, scattering them childishly on the table, then looked up at the stars, pointing with his hand,
"The fire breaking Kun’s fields, Kan water drying at Xu Hai’s bank, the moving line at Bing Shen tipping Dui’s position, the White Tiger biting gold reveals sword soldiers.
The source of calamity under the heaven is in the West Palace, as long as the person there is executed then..."
The Taibo Minister suddenly realized what he was saying, was shocked, lay trembling on the desk, sweating like pulp, dared not rise again.
Tie Dan raised his eyebrows, gazed northward at the main palace for welcoming the Emperor, then looked at the Eastern Palace temporarily housing the Southern King’s family, and turned his head,
"West Palace? Who is currently residing in the West Palace?"
The Taibo Minister was trembling all over, unable to speak.
However, there was no need to ask further, the situation reached this point, charging in to see would suffice.
"Blood Talisman Divine Sword!"
"Boom!"
"Wow!"
"The Demon Sect! The Demon Sect is assassinating the palace again!"
"Protect the Holy Emperor!"
Hmm, according to the old strategy of feinting eastward and attacking westward, casually unleashing a blood fire burning to strike the main palace hard, like setting off fireworks in a pit stop, causing chaos in the Immortal Palace, while taking the opportunity to pinch the formula to beco invisible, sneaking into the western sleeping palace to commit misdeeds.
Unexpectedly, Tie Dan encountered no combat the entire way.
It’s worth noting that last ti at Liangdu East Prince Mansion, even in already emptied places, a group of sweeping eunuchs would periodically appear to battle him for hundreds of rounds.
Now in the sa Jiangdu South Prince Mansion, even close to the Immortal Emperor’s family throne, the number of combat eunuchs was not small, yet those eunuchs simply kept to themselves, sweeping, cleaning windows, serving plates, completely ignoring Tie Dan who snuck by quietly.
It was as if the Skill was truly potent, capable of evading everyone’s notice, or perhaps the eunuchs did see Tie Dan but, for so reason, took him as one of their own instead...
Tie Dan was unsure whether it was the Jade Pendant’s effect or a monster’s special ability, but taking it easy wasn’t bad. So, he smoothly snuck into the palace. Upon seeing the West Palace main hall decked out in red and purple, as if for a wedding celebration, Tie Dan knew who the ’main figure’ here was.
Indeed, it was the sister of the Immortal Emperor, Princess Nankang, waiting as a bride for the Prince Consort ceremony.
However, Huan Tianyuan was possessed by the treasure sword and received a beating from Tie Dan, the mansion went under lockdown, so this pair of newlyweds was certainly unable to consummate their marriage tonight, leaving only the Eldest Princess guarding alone in the empty palace.
Even Tie Dan hesitated for a mont.
After all, this mission’s developnt was quite inexplicable. Not to ntion his dragon-slaying camaraderie with Huan Tianyuan, but due to inexplicable monsters, dreams, and even inexplicable divination, throwing himself in to assassinate a deeply hidden princess was indeed excessively bizarre.
But then, what’s the matter?
This era was chaotic, who in the world couldn’t be killed! Everyone in the world could be slain! For the sake of two hundred and sixty thousand pounds of silk! Why not eradicate the Immortal Palace tonight! Being here already, take one for balance, kill two for profit! Go!
Thus, Tie Dan followed up closely with a group of eunuchs changing lamp oil, sneaking into the princess’s sleeping chamber.
The princess wasn’t there, perhaps went to the feast.
So Tie Dan adeptly transford into a vase, squatting inside waiting for her, after all, she would eventually return for the wedding.
In this manner, he squatted for half a night, outside ca a clamor. A large group from the city and palace, tornted all night, with dark circles under their eyes, the Imperial Guards and Imperial City Forbidden Army ca to search for the assassin, several batches arrived, even turned over the flowerbeds outside the palace, leaving no stone unturned.
But unfortunately, those responsible for checking the princess’s boudoir were all Divinity Transformation Realm combat eunuchs, yet they saw Tie Dan not at all, ca and went, seemingly no one noticed the extra vase suddenly appearing at the princess’s bedside.
Thus at the break of dawn, Princess Nankang finally returned to the palace. But she didn’t seem to return alone.
"Just what are you up to! Wasn’t it you who hurriedly insisted on signing the contract tonight! It was you who demanded exorbitant prices! You who changed last minute! And now where are you? Where did you run off to! I already reported the contract! Don’t even think about adding any conditions at the last minute!"
"Ha? What do you an soone is secretly ssing with your plans? Quit babbling to ! I’m an outsider, I don’t understand your mountain people’s riddles!"
"Oh? A cow with a human face and horse feet? Could pass through the door? That sounds sowhat like the company’s... How would I know who! It’s not just our company! Besides, sothing like this never registered in the system, an illegal damp piece, who can trace it! Anyway, why don’t you just eliminate it!"
"What do you an it’s not it who sched? Then tell who it is?... Ha huh? Dumplings? Why are you talking to about dumplings at a ti like this? Enough, enough no more nonsense, I don’t have ti to ss with you, just say one thing! Are you signing this contract or not! Make it happen tonight! Miss it or lose it!"
The Eldest Princess thus loudly shouted, bossed around, spoke to herself, kicked off her shoes and socks, stripped off her clothes and robe, pulled out all the pins and ornants from her hair, walked bare to the other side of the screen, wiggling her way towards the bed to change into the red wedding gown.
Then Tie Dan leapt out from the vase, raised his hand, the sword fell, blade light, blood shadow, slashing her with one strike from head to toe, splitting her in two.
The woman’s corpse limply fell to the ground, emanating a warm fragrance, blood spreading at the feet, cut cleanly, died soundlessly.
Then Tie Dan reached out, flipped her over, pulled off the pendant that she had made, hanging on her chest, multicolored, shining like starlight Jade Pendant.
And in this instant, Tie Dan’s hair stood straight up.
Through the corner of his eye, across the screen, Tie Dan clearly ’saw’ there was a figure standing there.
Yet the Divine Sense told him, behind the screen, there was nothing, within the sleeping chamber, no one was present.
In that mont, an inch from the screen, an inch apart, Tie Dan and the shadow held their breath, neither spoke first.
Until soone suddenly grasped Tie Dan’s hand, placing sothing into his palm.
Tie Dan turned his head, saw the blind old eunuch again, heard a young boy’s voice,
"Thank you."
"Ting" a sound, like the unsheathing of a sword.
The next mont, the eunuch was cleaved.
The next mont, the screen was cleaved.
The next mont, the West Palace was cleaved.
The next mont, the Prince Mansion was cleaved.
Because of this thank you, this sword swung past Tie Dan’s eyes, so he saw clearly.
There was indeed no sword, only a mouthful of Breathing Qi.
Sword Control Skill, manipulating Qi like a sword.
Reaching a thousand miles away, it split open Jiangdu.
