Capítulo 1815: Chapter 274: Vanished Without a Trace
Upon seeing this situation, Lei Ming leaned over and curiously asked, “Big Brother Lin, you wouldn’t be interested in the old ones, would you?”
“Get lost! Do I look like someone who’s desperate?” Lin Yifan retorted with annoyance.
“Not really.”
Lei Ming looked dejected from the scolding and didn’t dare say another word.
The guards responsible for their safety noticed that Lin Yifan seemed to be eyeing either the favored consort or the beautiful Seventh Princess, so they couldn’t help being alert.
Next, Lin Yifan started asking around discreetly about the location of the Seventh Princess’s mother’s chambers.
The technique he used was extremely subtle, hard for ordinary people to comprehend, so the guards in charge of monitoring him from the Great You Country probably didn’t know what he was up to.
Nonetheless, as he got closer to the chambers of the Seventh Princess’s mother, the guards at his side began to suspect his intentions.
Every suspicious point throughout the day’s activities by Lin Yifan would be reported to the Emperor by the guards by his side.
Learning that Lin Yifan was interested in his woman, the Emperor of Great You Country was furious.
This kid is daring beyond measure; he must have a death wish.
If this kid wasn’t of some value to him right now, he would have killed him already.
Regardless, he must ask his favored concubine to be more cautious.
From the Emperor, the Seventh Princess’s mother learned that this specially protected kid was a swordsmanship expert and had even defeated the Second Prince, leaving her quite shocked.
If this person is a martial arts prodigy, why not take him and make him work for me? She therefore suggested to the Emperor, “Your Majesty, I think Ying’er is interested in this kid. Why not marry Ying’er to him?”
“No way. That kid is a lecher. It’s not suitable for a marriage arrangement.” The Emperor of Great You Country instantly refused.
Raising a tiger can lead to trouble; you cannot treat this lightly.
“Why do you say that?” The Seventh Princess’s mother asked curiously.
“Today, I heard from the guards that he seems to be deliberately probing into your whereabouts, possibly harboring ill intentions towards you,” replied the Emperor of Great You Country.
“No way! That’s terrifying!”
“Indeed, his identity and past are unknown; it’s best to have as little interaction with him as possible,” replied the Emperor of Great You Country.
“What should we do then? Should I hide or sleep somewhere else?” the Seventh Princess’s mother asked.
“For safety’s sake, temporarily move to Cloud Water Palace,” the Emperor of Great You Country replied.
“Alright!”
The Seventh Princess’s mother thought this arrangement was quite good, so she agreed.
…
Returning to his room, Lin Yifan was absent-minded, constantly thinking about the Stomach Earth Pearl.
Actually, he didn’t know if the Stomach Earth Pearl was real, but to avoid missing out, he decided he would rather err on the side of caution.
This was something to deal with after escape; the urgent issue was how to leave with Lei Ming safe and sound.
Today, he discovered a few hidden spots within the Imperial Palace, some with toilets; perhaps taking action there could allow him to escape with Lei Ming.
…
Another morning came, and once again Lin Yifan was surrounded by these insatiable old foxes.
Under their urging and threats, he wrote out another page of what seemed to be profound sword technique mental method, though it was actually filled with hidden traps.
He believed these old foxes had some suspicion yesterday, but not much. So if he lingered any longer, it wouldn’t be possible to say; thus, he needed to leave soon.
After receiving this page of sword technique mental method from Lin Yifan, the big figures present began slowly pondering and comprehending it.
After reading, these figures applauded and returned to their rooms with great enthusiasm to comprehend and cultivate on their own.
With nothing to do and having already dismissed this group of old foxes, Lin Yifan felt it was time to start his operation.
He called for Lei Ming, and they wandered around the Imperial Palace together.
Upon reaching the planned location where they could take action, he and Lei Ming used the excuse of stomach aches to enter the toilet.
The toilet was small and smelly, so the guards stayed outside, monitoring all movements.
They didn’t believe Lin Yifan and Lei Ming could escape from the toilet as there were guards hidden nearby and further away, constantly watching them.
Even if Lin Yifan and Lei Ming had wings, it would be difficult to escape, so there was no need to worry.
Upon entering the toilet, Lin Yifan signaled Lei Ming to close his eyes.
Lei Ming was aware of Big Brother Lin’s escape plan but doubted its success as they were heavily surrounded, making escape seem impossible.
However, trusting in Big Brother Lin’s vast experience and unique methods, he complied and closed his eyes as instructed.
Lin Yifan immediately took out the Spiritual Pearl, set up the Array, performed the Earth Escape Technique, and then took Lei Ming underground to escape.
After several minutes passed without Lin Yifan and Lei Ming emerging from the toilet, the guards responsible for overseeing them impatiently asked, “Hey! Are you done yet?”
After five seconds with no response, these guards felt something might have gone wrong and broke in to check.
Finding the toilet empty, they suddenly sensed impending doom.
They immediately rushed out of the toilet, shouting around, “This is bad! Those two brats have escaped. Did you guys spot any sign of those two bastards in the hidden places?”
Hearing this news, the hidden guards were astounded.
They hadn’t noticed any disturbances around the toilet nor seen anyone come out. Could it be those two brats vanished into thin air?
Regardless, the situation had become dire, and they had no choice but to come out and discuss countermeasures.
“We haven’t seen any sign of those two brats. Did you thoroughly check the toilet?”
“The toilet is so small, there’s no need to check. Those two brats aren’t in there.” The guards keeping open watch on Lin Yifan and Lei Ming replied.
“What… what should we do now?”
“Quickly inform the Emperor, and mobilize the brothers in the palace to capture them together. Also, notify the gate guards at the palace and the city to seal the gates immediately,” a seasoned Great Immortal Realm commander instructed.
The crowd found the commander’s words logical and immediately proceeded according to the instructions, acting on different fronts.
Disappearing from the toilet, Lei Ming found himself in an unknown space and curiously asked, “Big Brother Lin, where are we? Why is there so much dirt?”
“We are underground now. Don’t ask too many questions or move around. Just follow my instructions,” Lin Yifan replied.
“Oh!”
Lei Ming felt a bit aggrieved, but was utterly astonished.
He never imagined that Big Brother Lin had Earth Escaping Skill; it was truly eye-opening.
If only he too had a unique skill, how wonderful that would be!
