The hall was brightly lit.
Surrounding the gorgeous and spacious dragon couch, eight strong middle-aged palace ladies kept their hands on the ground, while four old eunuchs raised their hands to open the barrier.
Under the thick pillars painted with dragons, carvings and phoenixes, each golden-armored guard raised the golden melon hammer in his hand high, emitting clouds of golden light, illuminating the entire palace as if it were daytime.
These golden melon hammers are the spiritual weapons passed down from generation to generation by the royal family. Under the golden light, they can identify all kinds of monsters and ghosts and prohibit all kinds of treacherous escape methods. They are the ultimate weapon for protecting the palace.
Yan Linglong looked at the waves flowing not far away, overlapping layers and becoming increasingly thick, and sighed helplessly: "Is this necessary? I have Lord Qinghuang to protect me, so why am I afraid of those Lotus Cult witches?"
"The enchantress has weird tricks, so be careful!" The speaker was a royal elder standing outside the barrier. His expression was solemn and his tone was respectful: "Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold, and Lord Qinghuang is also a God-given auspicious beast. These little ones, How can I bother you two to take action? If I disturbed His Majesty this time, the subordinates have failed in their duties, and I will strictly discipline them from now on!"
"Hey." Knowing that she couldn't change these stubborn ideas, Yan Linglong sighed and looked to the side.
He was a tall and strong man wearing green feathered clothes, with fair and delicate skin, a proud and aloof manner, but a pair of pink and phoenix eyes full of tenderness.
He was gently wrapping his arms around his waist from behind and leaning on his shoulders intimately.
Before participating in the Feng Mansion recruitment, Yan Linglong had received strict training from the royal family and had read many records of the previous Feng Emperor and Huang Jun.
She knew that the phoenix could transform into a human form, but now she realized that after transforming into a human form, the Phoenix Lord was so clingy. She really wanted to hug her every moment and was unwilling to let go.
As if feeling Yan Linglong's gaze, Lord Qinghuang finally spoke: "Get rid of all these useless things!"
Then, he quickly turned his head and looked into Yan Linglong's eyes, with a hint of flattery in his tone: "Don't worry, no one can hurt you as long as I'm here."
Yan Linglong believed what he said. She had heard about it since she was a child, saying how powerful Tiangang's magical power was, and how powerful it was to ride a dragon and ride a phoenix, but she never had a concrete understanding until now that she was actually married to a phoenix. After becoming his wife, she truly understood why riding a dragon and riding a phoenix was called Tiangang's number one magical power.
It is really too powerful, beyond the power of human beings. It is even impossible to think of any way to defeat this phoenix or even cause it to be slightly injured!
Maybe the silver-armored giant that appeared before is one of them?
They are almost the same in size, but even if a person becomes bigger, his strength doubles, and his body doubles, Yan Linglong doesn't believe he can withstand the terrifying phoenix fire.
It really melts gold and eliminates bones. No matter how hard the metal spiritual material is, if it can't be breathed, it will turn into a pool of gold water, and even burn less and less, and finally dissipate directly.
What kind of spiritual armor can one wear to withstand such flames?
Qinghuang Jun's words were more effective than her, the empress, and the barrier was quickly removed. Several old eunuchs and palace maids stood aside, but the golden melon guards were still on guard with their hammers.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Qinghuang Jun next to him shouted.
"What's wrong?" This was the first time Yan Linglong heard Qinghuang Jun make such a sound.
"I sensed a sense of peeping in the sky, but I couldn't find anyone when I scanned it with my spiritual consciousness." Lord Qinghuang frowned slightly: "How about we take a look?"
Sky? peep? No one found?
Qinghuang Jun is not wrong. He said that if you feel peeping, there must be someone! But no one was found... Riding a dragon and riding a phoenix is Tiangang, and anyone who can fight against it must also be Tiangang!
If you are good at flying and hiding...then there is only one possibility, she is the goddess of Wushan Sect! They belong to the same Tiangang and soar in the clouds! It's that magical Qingyun that's blocking Qinghuang Jun's perception!
Sure enough, either no magical power like Tiangang will be born, or will all of them be born? Who will be next?
"Forget it, forget it." Yan Linglong touched Qinghuang Jun's chest and comforted her while rejecting his proposal: "They are just some little people, there is no need to bother with them."
Qinghuang Jun also listened to the advice and stopped talking. He just rubbed his cheek affectionately at the end of Yan Linglong's hair.
After sitting on the bed for a while, Yan Linglong couldn't help but regret.
In this situation, there are a lot of people around. In order to maintain the image of the empress, I can't lie down, so I can only sit like this in a daze.
Looking at the situation at the outer door, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it tonight, and I won't be able to sleep, and I'll have to go to bed early tomorrow morning...
Hey, magical power is indeed magical, but the cost is unavoidable and makes people a headache. Especially for a great magical power like Disha Tiangang, no matter how good the secret medicine is, the effect is limited.
However, I heard that a magical power called [Bloodlust] has recently been released, which can offset the cost to a large extent. I heard that it can also be completely exempted. Do you want to come over and practice it?
As for the price of spirit beast blood, as the empress, would she still be short of it?
Oh, by the way, there is also Lord Qinghuang. If I ask him for some phoenix blood, it should be easy. I heard that the better the quality of the spirit beast blood that those magical powers drink, the better the effect. Do you want to give it a try?
Just as Yan Linglong was thinking wildly, a voice came from outside the hall: "General Shangguan is here!"
The sound came from far away, and after a while, the door of the palace was opened, and an old general with silver hair and armor strode in, and then fell to his knees.
"Your Majesty, we have completely searched the entire palace. We have not yet found the Lotus Cult witch. I suspect that there are other unknown secret passages in the palace. I have arranged people to conduct a second search. The first is the ones in the palace. Each well..."
The old general reported, his voice was sonorous and powerful, full of a decisiveness unique to soldiers.
Yan Linglong looked at the old general in front of her and listened to his report, but there was no response.
The Shangguan family is different from other aristocratic families. They do not have a fiefdom. They have been in charge of the palace guards since the founding of the country. They have been working diligently and diligently for hundreds of years. They are worthy of trust in both loyalty and ability. It is because of their family's protection. , emperors in the past dynasties have never been successfully assassinated in the palace...
Such a family naturally needs to win over and appease their loyalty: "Thank you for your hard work, old general. The witch may have escaped from the palace. Why don't you go and rest early!"
Hey, I am obviously the least good at dealing with people among the sisters, why did the master let me take on such a big responsibility? Just because I have the most talent?
For thousands of years, countless generations of people have been planning and preparing, paying countless real or fake deaths, subverting dynasties and creating wars again and again...
Does the realm above Tiangang that I seek really exist?
I have also been to Feng Mansion, and I have seen this legendary supreme spiritual realm where phoenixes soar and thousands of birds sing in unison, but it is already the best breeding ground for the birth of Tiangang supernatural powers.
Higher and higher, what will it be?
Over there, the old general Shangguan knocked his helmet on the jade brick: "Why do you say this, Your Majesty? This time, my Shangguan family has indeed failed in my duty. I, Shangguan Jinde, will capture the witch for Your Majesty and relieve your worries!"
Seeing the old general's shameful, angry and determined gaze, Yan Linglong said nothing more and just waved him away.
Yan Linglong knew that even if the old general searched all his life, he would never be able to find the Lotus Cult witch who broke into the palace secretly.
Although there is indeed a Lotus Cult demon girl in the palace now.
That is herself: the Lotus Saint, Yan Linglong.
