Chapter 1016 (Everywhere is Filled with Strangeness)
"What's with the water sprinklers? And what are those in yellow clothes sweeping the floor? The setup here is really strange; the streets are unexpectedly s.p.a.cious and not crowded at all," Bei Wen remarked.
"Everything here is strange. Those guards aren't ordinary people!" Bei Wen said in a deep voice. His sixth sense told him that the Voidless Realm was not simple.
Cheng Tian didn't deny it and nodded, "It's indeed peculiar. Look at that palace; it's even more magnificent than the one in Spirit City. Prince Ye really knows how to enjoy."
Anyone entering the city could see the towering palace from any angle. This was Ye Hua's original palace, making the palace visible from any point, exuding an imposing aura.
Indeed, first-time visitors to the Voidless Realm would be overwhelmed by such a sight, including Cheng Tian and Bei Wen.
"Bei Wen, let's quickly complete the mission; that's the most important thing!" Cheng Tian urged.
Bei Wen's gaze revealed caution. After a long pause, he could only nod.
Cheng Tian called him over, and he agreed, so he could only brace himself for what was to come. After all, it was an order from the Emperor. Defying the Emperor's order was not a trivial matter, or rather, there would be trouble if he didn't carry out the Emperor's order.
Hopefully, there were no formidable Overlords in the Voidless Realm.
There weren't any formidable Overlords; all that remained were a group of subordinates who didn't blink an eye when it came to killing.
Inside the palace, Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi sat on either side of the throne, with several minions standing below.
"Lady, the people sent by the Spirit City have entered the city," Wei Chang respectfully reported.
Listening in silence, the subordinate understood that their Lord this time had gone out to play solo, abandoning all of them...
Finally, something interesting was happening again.
"Wei Chang, do you have any plans?" Qing Ya asked.
Wei Chang bowed and said, "Lady, following the Lord's instructions, we need to control these two individuals and await the Lord's command."
"Oh? Wei Chang, did Ye Hua tell you this?" Donghuang Baizhi asked in confusion.
"Yes, Lady. The Lord found me and said that if someone from the Spirit City comes, we should control them," Wei Chang explained. He had received orders from Ye Hua that night, antic.i.p.ating that Huang Fei might come after him.
Qing Ya nodded, "Then, Wei Chang, you handle this matter according to Ye Hua's instructions."
"Yes! However, the Lord also instructed that when the time comes, both of you Ladies, need to play the role of hostages."
Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi smiled bitterly. Ye Hua was playing some scheme again, making them play the role of hostages...
"Very well, everyone can disperse now," Qing Ya stood up, waved her hand, and returned with Donghuang Baizhi to the rear tea room.
"It seems that Ye Hua intends for us to meet his mother," Qing Ya whispered.
Donghuang Baizhi nodded, "Yes, we need to take care of ourselves these days and make sure Ye Hua's mother doesn't underestimate us."
"Indeed, we must leave a good impression on Ye Hua's mother," Donghuang Baizhi looked serious. For them, meeting Ye Hua's mother was a significant event. She would be their future mother-in-law, and finally, someone capable of handling Ye Hua had arrived. If Ye Hua ever bullied them again, they could just call for mommy to rescue them...
However, some subordinates who walked out of the palace began to discuss how to tease the two newcomers, trying to make them mentally collapse.
At this moment, Cheng Tian and Bei Wen had already arrived outside the palace walls. Few people lived around the palace because the property prices were too high. Only true tyc.o.o.ns could afford it, being right next to the imperial palace.
Two men exchanged glances and instantly disappeared, entering the palace.
The black-armoured warriors guarding the entrance completely ignored them, as if they hadn't seen anything.
Once inside the palace, Cheng Tian and Bei Wen looked around cautiously. The atmosphere felt slightly tense because they knew it was Ye Hua's territory, and they needed to be vigilant. Who knew if Ye Hua had any schemes in mind?
Suddenly, a figure approached slowly. Cheng Tian and Bei Wen turned to look.
A Husky with three flames on its head walked leisurely towards them. Its arrogant stride gave off an unconcerned rhythm, as if it didn't recognize anyone.
Cheng Tian and Bei Wen found it strange. What kind of dog was this, and why did it look so peculiar? It seemed to possess a foolish quality.
"What kind of dog is this? It looks a bit like a Husky, as if it's drunk," Cheng Tian muttered, avoiding making a fuss as they were unsure of the consequences of upsetting the canine.
Bei Wen frowned and stared; the dog just walked past them as if they were invisible.
But at that moment, a voice rang out, making Cheng Tian and Bei Wen immediately alert.
Two people approached while chatting and laughing, one wearing a red cloak, the other in a green cloak.
Isn't this the Red-Green brothers?
Cheng Tian stared at them and said firmly, "Looks like we're going to have a fight."
Bei Wen nodded. They hadn't expected to be discovered so quickly after entering!
"Oh, what's wrong again? It's not about that trivial matter, is it?" Yi Hong sighed heavily.
"What's the matter? Don't tell me it's still because of that little thing," Lu Hong chuckled.Y
i Hong nodded, "Is it because of something else? Recently, Zi Shan's temper has been worsening. She even made me sleep outside. When she gets pregnant, I can finally sleep inside."
"I have a question then."
"Yes, I can't even sleep inside. How is she supposed to get pregnant?" Yi Hong burst into laughter without even looking at the two.
Cheng Tian and Bei Wen watched the two walk past them.
Their minds were buzzing.
What is going on?
Is this really the imperial palace? Could it be that they've gone to the wrong place?
"Wait a moment, please..." Cheng Tian couldn't hold back and quickly stopped the Red-Green brothers.
Lu Hong and Yi Hong halted, looking at the two with a puzzled gaze.
Cheng Tian smiled and asked, "Excuse me, are we in the Imperial Palace of the Voidless Empire?"
"Yes, what's the matter?" Yi Hong innocently replied, secretly finding it hilarious. These two were quite amusing.
Cheng Tian and Bei Wen exchanged glances and saw the confusion in the other's eyes.
"Aren't you curious about who we are?" Bei Wen couldn't hold back. What kind of bizarre empire was this, where strangers could enter the imperial palace without anyone asking questions?
Lu Hong and Yi Hong glanced at each other, and then Lu Hong said, "Uh... who are you? Do you have any relations.h.i.+p with us?"
Oh my! They were left speechless.
"Where is your Emperor?" Cheng Tian began to inquire about information. They must be dealing with two fools.
Yi Hong clapped his hands, "Our Emperor... well..."
