Chapter 565 - 218: Entering the Palace Late at Night! The Empress Secretly Learns New Poses! _2
?
Yu Yu raised his eyes to look.
He saw the old man with crane-like hair and youthful face looking at him, his eyes like an unfathomable deep lake.
Noticing the blue satin sleeve embroidered with ocean waves and river cliffs, a shiver ran down his spine up to the top of his head, he hurriedly bowed and lowered his gaze.
"This official greets Eunuch!"
"Now, can our family take the person away?" Eunuch Jin said slowly.
"Of course, Eunuch, please!"
Yu Yu stepped sideways.
The soldiers exchanged glances, but could only make way.
Eunuch Jin raised his hand, and three streams of light flew out from the pavilion, hovering in front of Chen Mo.
"Mr. Chen, it’s best to keep the token safe; if lost, it would be hard to explain to His Highness."
Looking at the lifelike Flying Phoenix and Purple Phoenix on the token, Yu Yu’s heart grew tense, his head lowered even more.
"Thank you, Eunuch."
Chen Mo put away the token.
He looked at Chu Heng, barely alive on the ground, with a hint of regret, and tentatively said, "Eunuch, since things have come to this point, why not finish it up? I’ll go up and add a few more cuts, and you can pretend you didn’t see..."
"Otherwise, it’s too much of a loss using the Flying Phoenix Order..."
"..."
Yu Yu wished he could cover his ears.
Please, could you not loudly conspire in front of me!
Eunuch Jin glanced at Chen Mo and said helplessly, "Enough is enough; do you really want to stir up the heavens?"
Chen Mo knew it wasn’t going to happen today, but he was still a bit unwilling; after all, opportunities like this aren’t always available...
"Let’s go first, it’ll be more troublesome when the Prince Mansion’s people arrive."
Eunuch Jin, seeing the time was right, waved his sleeve, and the figures of Chen Mo and Lin Jingzhu suddenly disappeared.
The air became quiet.
The old servant slowly got up from the ground and came to Chu Heng’s side.
After checking carefully and looking at Yu Yu, he said nothing, holding Chu Heng, he flew away from the place.
Yu Yu wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
"Damn, bumping into such things, really unlucky..."
The subordinate next to him asked in a low voice, "Sir, Heir Chu has been beaten like this, are we just going to sit idly by, is it somewhat negligent?"
"Handle? How do you want me to handle it?" Yu Yu glared at him, annoyed, "You pig brain still can’t see? With Eunuch Jin’s strength, he could have directly taken people away; why did he wait here for us to come over?"
The subordinate asked puzzled, "Why?"
Yu Yu replied coldly, "This is obviously sending a signal; he saved the person, making trouble for Chen Mo is making trouble for him! Who backs Eunuch Jin, are you still not clear?"
The subordinate pondered for a moment, then exclaimed, "You mean the Empress..."
"Quiet!"
"Do you want to die? I haven’t lived enough yet!"
Yu Yu looked around and lowered his voice, "Moreover, Chen Mo has the Death Exemption Token; anyone who touches this situation dies... Just honestly report back, and don’t say a word of what shouldn’t be said."
The moment he saw Eunuch Jin, he realized this matter was no longer something he, a seventh-grade deputy envoy, could partake in!
This was the clash between two massive forces; getting involved meant being ground into meat in an instant!
"This Tiandu City, seems it’s about to change!"
Yu Yu dared not linger here; without even considering the eyewitnesses, he hurriedly left with the soldiers.
It was only then that the sect disciples realized.
"Not a persimmon, it’s the Heir..."
"So Mr. Chen intends to kill the Heir of Prince Yu Mansion?!"
"Earlier I gave the Heir a flying kick to the waist... All along, I’ve ended up a criminal?"
Liu Qiansong’s throat felt dry.
What does it mean to assault a Prince Mansion’s Heir?
Thought it was a chance to earn merit, turns out it might be a grave to be erected!"
Everyone exchanged glances, instantly reaching a consensus, and scattered to escape, melting into the crowd.
"Split!"
...
...
In the corner of a street alley, Ji Lianxing merged with Shadow, a trace of amusing intent flitting through her purple-black eyes.
"Seems Chen Mo has quite a few enemies in Tiandu City."
"That old eunuch’s strength is remarkable; he should be the Empress’s person... hitting the Heir to such a state and still being protected; could it be Chen Mo is truly the Empress’s concubine?"
"And the aura on that Chu Heir’s body even resembles a Blood Demon somewhat, does it mean..."
"Tsk tsk, it’s getting more interesting; this trip to the Capital City was indeed worthwhile."
...
...
Huff—
The wind stopped abruptly.
When Chen Mo opened his eyes again, he was already in front of the Imperial Palace gate.
This felt different from when the Empress directly traversed the void, more like shortening the distance, carrying a mysterious sense of Shrinking Ground into Inches.
Looking at Eunuch Jin standing with hands behind his back, Chen Mo cupped his hands, "Today’s matter, thanks to Eunuch’s help, this official is truly grateful."
Eunuch Jin felt a bit helpless.
Ever since learning Chen Mo obtained the Military Dao Inheritance, he’s been particularly attentive to this young man; knowing both Chen Mo and the Heir were at the Imperial Music Bureau tonight, he felt a faintly bad premonition...
But he never expected Chen Mo’s audacity reached this extent!
He actually harbored killing intent towards the Heir!
"What’s the reason?" Eunuch Jin asked directly.
Chen Mo confessed, "A little drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring, a small enmity repaid tenfold... Though I might be somewhat arrogant, I’m not one to create trouble without reason; if I acted, it means Chu Heng had a compelling reason to die."
"..."
Eunuch Jin sighed faintly.
This wasn’t just somewhat arrogant; it was arrogantly boundless!
"Regardless of the reason, you shouldn’t have acted publicly; do you know what kind of trouble this will bring?"
