We Agreed You’d Just Play the Divine Son, So How Did You Become the Forbidden Zone Emperor? Chapter 8 : Chapter 8

Chapter 8. Consort Yu’s Maidservant—Heading to the Jinxuan Palace!

Chu Feng stood as still as a mountain.

Inwardly, he was guessing the maidservant’s identity.

He watched as the maidservant approached, her expression extrely respectful. She glanced at the Forbidden Army Guard kneeling before Chu Feng, and her face stiffened.

Then the maidservant asked respectfully, “Your Highness, what cri has this person committed?”

Before Chu Feng could answer, the Forbidden Army Guard endured the agonizing pain and said in a trembling voice, “It is I who deserve ten thousand deaths. I offended Your Highness.”

Hearing this, the maidservant’s gaze shifted to the guard, and in an instant, it beca incomparably sharp.

“For offending a prince, you do not deserve to live.”

Her voice was cold. “If you do not wish to implicate the family behind you, get out of the imperial palace and end yourself.”

“Yes… yes.”

The Forbidden Army Guard nodded tremblingly, his eyes turning numb. In the end, he could not escape death.

Regret surged through him in countless waves. He knew that this road to death was already unavoidable.

He regretted it beyond asure—why had he doubted Chu Feng? He must have lost his mind.

But thinking more was useless. Since he had already offended a superior, there was only one path left—death as atonent.

As long as he did not drag his family down, everything would be fine.

After speaking, the Forbidden Army Guard staggered to his feet and walked toward the outside of the imperial palace.

Even though he had served Chu Feng as a personal guard for many years, he had offended his master, and so he had to be granted death.

The fact that his family was not being wiped out was already rcy, granted in consideration of his years of service.

Chu Feng raised an eyebrow.

No wonder Shangguan Chengfeng had been so tense.

A re slight offense toward a prince, and one had to take one’s own life to atone.

If soone killed a prince…

The entire Shangguan Family would be exterminated—chickens and dogs alike would not be spared. As for the key figures involved, who knew what kind of tornt they would suffer.

Of course.

Impersonating a prince was also a monstrous cri.

But at this mont, Chu Feng possessed the Chaos Dual Pupils. His confidence had multiplied ten thousandfold, and he feared nothing at all.

He looked at the maidservant, and in an instant, he saw through everything about her as well. With the opening and closing of his eyes, this woman had no secrets before him.

The maidservant averted her gaze, and her sharpness imdiately turned to obedience.

In a small voice, she said, “Your Highness, Consort Yu learned that you have returned and imdiately sent to inform you to make a trip to the Jinxuan Palace.”

Hearing this, Chu Feng narrowed his eyes.

The maidservant’s identity was all but confird. She should be Consort Yu’s personal maidservant.

And as Consort Yu’s personal maidservant, how could she possibly be an ordinary person?

Within Chu Feng’s Chaos Dual Pupils, this maidservant’s realm was far from ordinary. She was also at the peak of the Life Palace Realm.

Moreover, she was young—much younger than the Forbidden Army Guard—yet she possessed such cultivation.

Outside the imperial palace, she would be a genius worth heavy investnt.

Inside the imperial palace, she was rely a maidservant.

“Mm.”

Chu Feng simply answered with a single soft word.

The maidservant nodded respectfully, then led the way.

As she guided him, the maidservant was secretly startled. She felt that after His Highness went out and returned, he seed shrouded in mist—deep and unfathomable, impossible to see clearly.

His aura had beco even more terrifying!

It seed that during this ti outside the imperial palace, His Highness had encountered yet another fortuitous opportunity.

If Consort Yu learned of it, she would surely be very pleased.

Walking within the Great Chu Imperial Palace, Chu Feng grew more and more awed by its grandeur.

Inside the imperial palace, it was like a colossal city—severe and imposing in a myriad ways. Every ti he passed a stretch of road, Chu Feng could sense powerful auras lying dormant!

As expected of the Great Chu Imperial Palace—there were simply too many ancient monsters hidden within.

The Great Chu had been founded for more than a hundred thousand years.

A hundred thousand years was exceedingly long, yet in this ancient Eastern Wasteland, a hundred-thousand-year power was not considered much.

In the Eastern Wasteland, only forces that had existed for more than two hundred thousand years were qualified to be called ancient kingdoms. Great Chu was still far from that.

Of course, longer existence did not necessarily an greater strength.

Great Chu had stood for only a hundred thousand years, yet within the Eastern Wasteland, it was still a power of considerable weight.

Successive Chu Emperors had all possessed outstanding talent, accumulating limitless foundation for Great Chu.

Before he knew it—

Chu Feng’s steps paused slightly, because ahead of him there already appeared an enormous palace wrapped in heaven-and-earth spiritual energy!

Its gates rose hundreds of zhang high, built from ten-thousand-year spirit jade, and they emitted a faint chill of noble splendor.

At the very top of the palace gate—

The three enormous characters “Jinxuan Palace” were carved clearly, the strokes exuding an overwhelming aura that would not perish through the ages.

Chu Feng followed the maidservant into the Jinxuan Palace.

Inside the hall, white jade was laid across the ground, with star-like patterns glimring. Boundless spiritual energy flowed around Chu Feng like an ocean.

Arriving here was like stepping into a hazy immortal realm, where clouds and mist drifted.

The Jinxuan Palace’s magnificence surpassed that of the Shangguan Family by who knew how many tis.

And Chu Feng’s gaze shifted slightly.

He knew the greatest trial had arrived.

Consort Yu!

The Third Prince’s mother!

Back at the Shangguan Family, Shangguan Chengfeng had warned Chu Feng that Consort Yu’s strength was monstrous and unfathomable. Even within the imperial palace, she was a giant no one could underestimate.

Before her, he had to be careful—careful again.

Of course, that had been before.

After fusing with the Chaos Dual Pupils, Chu Feng feared nothing.

His expression was calm, like drifting clouds and gentle wind. As his eyes opened and closed, the Chaos Dual Pupils began to circulate.

Boom…

Black and gold rotated within his pupils. Chu Feng’s gaze pierced through every false veil, reaching straight to the source!

He saw that at the end of the Jinxuan Palace, on a jeweled throne carved with two azure luan birds, a woman sat.

This woman’s figure was full and upright. One hand rested lazily on the throne. Her skin was like luminous snow, brows like willow leaves, and her red lips were bright and richly colored.

Most eye-catching of all were her fox-like eyes—bewitching all living beings, her temperant incomparably alluring.

“So this is Consort Yu?”

“She is so young!”

Chu Feng narrowed his eyes, thinking that this woman was far too srizing. Even with the Chaos Dual Pupils, in that instant, his heart still jolted sharply.

Yet Chu Feng discovered sothing even more surprising.

His Chaos Dual Pupils could not see through Consort Yu.

Of course, that was normal.

Consort Yu was not an ordinary person, and he had no realm for the mont. It was only natural that he could not perceive through her.

“Feng’er.”

Consort Yu parted her red lips slightly. Her voice was gentle and languid, carrying a faint hint of seduction.

The maidservant had already walked to Consort Yu’s side and stood waiting respectfully.

Chu Feng’s expression remained calm as he strode toward Consort Yu.

With the reinforcent of the Chaos Dual Pupils, a special aura of mystery blended with nobility spread around him.

When Chu Feng was only ten zhang away from Consort Yu, a faint ripple appeared deep within her eyes.

A strange glimr flashed across her gaze!

She sized Chu Feng up from top to bottom, then said softly, “Feng’er, how is it that in only a few days, you have beco… a little different?”

In that instant, Chu Feng felt his scalp go numb!

This Consort Yu was terrifying. That single look felt as though it could kill him in an instant.

Her realm was unfathomable. She was absolutely a giant among giants.

However, in the blink of an eye, Chu Feng steadied himself again. He had the Chaos Dual Pupils—this was his greatest confidence.

A supre, heaven-defying physique, combined with the special nature of the Chaos Dual Pupils themselves, allowed Chu Feng, with the opening and closing of his eyes, to shroud himself in a layer of mist—making it impossible for many people to see through him.
