Li Huaiyun was very excited. If he continued to be so polite, both of them would die here.
"Ah!" Mu Yuan felt very uncomfortable when she heard being scolded. If this happened before, she must have felt that she was right. She still had to compete with others, and she would never be scolded casually.
She endured the anguish in her heart and ran out of the palace reluctantly. Then she quickly thought about running outside and notifying the demon hunters patrolling the palace.
Li Huaiyun stood in front of the palace gate to stop Concubine Rong from chasing Mu Yuan. He accumulated the last bit of strength in his fists.
Then he took out the ghost silver needle given by his aunt, and prepared to use the method taught by Hong Yun to pierce the acupuncture points on his head, obtain the peak of body function, and make a final life-and-death fight for this!
After Mu Yuan ran out of the palace, she kept turning her head and looking towards the back. She felt extremely disappointed and worried that something unexpected might happen to Li Huaiyun. She must hurry up!
Not long after running out, there was a loud noise from the dormitory, and the roof and beams were already showing signs of collapse.
She ran on the old stone pavement of the palace and shouted to the guards, "Hurry up and notify the monster hunters in the palace!"
She also used her spiritual weapon to contact the Demon Slayer Department. As the entire palace was filled with dust and the trees were knocked over by the strong wind, she knew that if Li Huaiyun did not come out at this time, he would probably be in bad luck!
Just when she was about to enter the palace again, a figure floated over and gently pressed her shoulder with his hand.
"Master!" She looked at Qin Gang beside her and couldn't hold back her tears. "Li Huaiyun is inside, fighting to the death with the monster. He...him!"
"I see!"
At this time, all the demon hunters in the palace came one after another, and they ran into Xiangning Palace along with Qin Gang and Mu Yuan.
When they arrived at Concubine Rong's palace, there was a lot of dust floating inside and outside, and from time to time a burst of sawdust floated in the air.
"Good Luck! Good Luck!" Mu Yuan shouted loudly towards the palace door. At first, she didn't think anything of it. It wasn't until the demon catcher couldn't help but laugh that she understood what it meant!
In a moment of impatience, she yelled at those people, "How could you still laugh? If it weren't for him, you wouldn't even know there were monsters in the palace. Whenever monsters appear and wreak havoc in the palace, you can't help it." blame!"
Her words made the others feel ashamed, and they stepped forward one after another, ready to help search.
Qin Gang frowned, "There is too much dust here. If it is not removed, it will be difficult to see clearly what is ahead."
He raised his hand, opened his palm, and waved it vigorously, and the dust inside and outside the palace was suddenly blown away by an invisible wind.
At this time, Emperor Zhou Sheng also rushed over. In addition to the important ministers, there were also princes and princesses. He asked solemnly, "What happened in Xiangning Palace?
"Why is there such a movement!"
Mu Yuan glared at Emperor Zhou Sheng, "It's not your concubine who did this."
"Mu Yuan! Don't be unreasonable. After all, he is your father, the emperor of Zhou Dynasty," Qin Gang said seriously.
"Forget it, Sikyong, she's always been like this!" Emperor Zhou Sheng didn't care anymore, "What happened? Why is it like this?"
"Let Mu Yuan tell you the situation!" Qin Gang said,
"Why should I say it?"
"You just do what the teacher tells you to do,?"
Seeing Qin Gang's attitude, Mu Yuan had no choice but to relent and told what happened.
The more Emperor Zhou Sheng listened, the more he realized that things were far beyond his imagination.
"Are these things serious?"
"We checked it ourselves, do you think it's true?"
"No wonder Concubine Rong wants to get tattoos on her body. It turns out that she has escaped into the so-called Buddhism. Who made her believe in this Buddhism!"
Mu Yuan shook her head, "Only Concubine Rong knows about this matter, how do we know!"
Emperor Zhou Sheng looked at Sikyong, hoping that he could give a relatively reasonable explanation.
Qin Gang waved his hand, "I can only know this after I see those patterns and Buddha statues!"
"Then...that Li Huaiyun?"
"He has disappeared now and has been searched for! However, according to Mu Yuan, the situation is very bad."
At this moment, a staggering figure walked out of the palace gate. He was covered in wounds, his clothes were ragged, and he was holding the head of a Buddha statue in his hand.
Everyone was shocked by this and didn't know what happened.
When Li Huaiyun walked toward them step by step with blood on his face, they were completely shocked.
Mu Yuan showed a happy smile, ran up and hugged Li Huaiyun, "Asshole! What's going on with you, why is this happening?"
Li Huai used his weak voice, panted heavily, and slowly said, "Don't hold me down, I'm so tired, and you're still holding me.
He looked tired, as if he had been locked up here.
Mu Yuan immediately let go of his hand and felt embarrassed for his gaffe, "Sorry! Sorry!"
At this time, the prince hurriedly walked up and said, "Young master Li, everything is fine, but he has a lot of injuries. Come to my palace for healing. I will find the best imperial doctor to treat you."
Emperor Zhou Sheng frowned and felt a little displeased, but after all, in this situation, he still pretended not to care.
"Thank you for your kindness, Prince. Apart from being tired, I have nothing to do!"
Qin Gang walked up and asked, "What happened? Why is this happening?"
Li Huaiyun threw the head of the Buddha statue to the ground, "At the critical moment, I entered the Hedao realm!"
"What?" Qin Gang was very surprised. He actually broke through to the God Refining Realm in such a short period of time!
"What happens after that?"
Li Huaiyun looked around, "After entering the Hedao realm, I can deal with that monster directly."
Emperor Zhou Sheng looked solemn on the side and asked directly, "What do you mean? Are you saying that there are monsters in the palace?"
"Yes!" Li Huaiyun cupped his fists and saluted.
"Where did you find it!"
"Right here!"
"Nonsense!" Emperor Zhou Sheng looked annoyed. He actually had some vague speculation in his mind, but it was hard for him to accept what he said. "You might as well say that Concubine Rong who lives here is a monster."
"Your Majesty, this Concubine Rong is nothing but a monster."
"What! Ridiculous!" Emperor Zhou Sheng looked displeased and pointed at Li Huaiyun, "How dare you say it again."
Just as Li Huaiyun was about to speak, Qin Gang raised his hand to stop him, signaling him not to talk too much.
Mu Yuan walked up. She couldn't bear to see the person who saved her life being scolded for no reason, "Is there something wrong with your ears?"
Emperor Zhou Sheng looked at Mu Yuan with a sinister expression, "This is none of your business, hurry up..."
"What do you mean it's none of my business? I was in this palace with him just now. If it weren't for him, I would have died here."
"Do you still think what others say is embarrassing to you? Since you can't accept it, then don't let us continue to investigate. After we find out the truth of the matter, why should we still be angry with you?"
"You are so brave! Sister Fourteen, you are actually allowed to talk to your father like this!" Upon seeing this, the prince immediately stepped forward and pointed at Mu Yuan, "Don't think that your father loves you and can speak so carelessly. .”
Mu Yuan glanced at the prince, "This is none of your business, we are investigating the case!"
"Your attitude..."
"Get down! It's none of your business here!" Emperor Zhou Sheng shouted to the prince.
The prince's face looked a little embarrassed, and he could only walk away angrily.
"Tell me the whole story of the case!" Emperor Zhou Sheng shook the sleeves of his dragon robe with a sullen face.
Li Huaiyun looked around at Zhou Yuan, "This matter is of great importance and must be kept secret. Please keep Mu Yuan and Sikyong here, and push everyone else aside!"
When the prince heard this, he immediately became angry. He was still the prince, but there was something he couldn't let him hear. However, it was hard for him to say anything. After all, the emperor had not spoken yet.
"Father, beware of fraud!"
"Sikyong is here! You don't have to worry about it," Emperor Zhou Sheng said, "Except for them, everyone else should step aside for the time being!"
After receiving the order, the others immediately retreated. Only the prince turned around every three steps, with an unconvinced look on his face.
After everyone else had left, Li Huaiyun told Emperor Zhou Sheng the general ins and outs of the case.
When the emperor heard all the things going on in his harem, he felt more and more uneasy. He always thought that he had the harem in his hands and no one could make trouble in front of him.
But the case of Mu Yuan's mother-in-law Yi Fei made him know that he had been kept in the dark about many things.
"What about Concubine Rong? Why did she become like this?"
Li Huaiyun pondered for a moment and said, "It's not clear, but from the jade carving found on the maid's body, it must be related to the man in black robe."
"Perhaps this Concubine Rong is just being taken advantage of!"
"Being used by others?" Emperor Zhou Sheng frowned and couldn't figure it out. "Why is being used by others to turn into what you said? That would be too scary. Now I have feelings for anyone in the harem. An inexplicable fear."
Mu Yuan snorted disdainfully, "I hope what you said is true! That Concubine Rong tattooed those patterns on her body, but you didn't care about them, and now she says she's afraid. Do you need to say that?"
Emperor Zhou Sheng glanced at Mu Yuan and thought, must this woman be against him? Why are you so cruel to what you say to yourself?
He said, "What is the name of the sect that Concubine Rong worships? I will immediately send people to investigate. The key to some cases may be among them."
Li Huaiyun shrugged, "I don't know what this sect is about, but the things they do are quite harmonious!"
Qin Gang walked up and said loudly, "Leave it to me in this regard! I will definitely try my best to find that so-called person,"
The emperor and Mu Yuan did not talk about it on weekdays. Since Sikyong directly took over the task, it saved a lot of trouble.
Emperor Zhou Sheng looked at Mu Yuan and said with a guilty expression, "Mu Yuan! It's my father who is sorry for you. He failed to take good care of Concubine Yi, so that he was plotted by a villain and suffered an accident!"
Mu Yuan resisted the tears in her eyes. She turned her head away and resisted the tears in her eyes. For so many years, she always thought that it was this foolish king who did not investigate the cause of her mother's murder for the sake of the peace of the harem.
However, after Li Huaiyun arrived, she also knew that with the level of this group of people at that time, it was impossible to find out what the case was about.
For this reason, she did not want to force this kind of mistake on Emperor Zhou Sheng again.
"Now that the murderer has been found, I don't blame you for this!" Mu Yuan turned away, still somewhat alienated by this.
She looked at Li Huaiyun and asked loudly, "Where is the murderer now?"
Li Huaiyun looked behind him, where the palace was still covered in dust, "I don't know anymore, let her escape!"
He raised his hand and clenched his fist hard, "Originally I had caught him, but at that moment, the thing suddenly shrank up, and I didn't pay too much attention for a while, which led to one of my hands... , failed to hold it firmly."
"Didn't you continue to pursue me?"
