Western Plains Mansion.
Everything was as usual, nothing unusual.
Liu Chengyong stood in the tallest building in Fucheng, looking down at the crowds of people coming and going below, while frowning as he listened to the reports from his subordinates behind him.
That was the captain of the guard he sent to secretly protect the emperor.
Of course, it's protection in name at least.
However, the other party brought back a piece of news that he couldn't understand.
"What do you mean someone is missing?"
Can a living person disappear?
After listening to the guard captain's report, Liu Chengyong frowned and fell deeply into it.
This made his originally kind-hearted appearance look extremely ugly.
The king of a country disappeared silently from the territory he governed.
Still under his close surveillance!
Liu Chengyong had a bad feeling in his heart ever since he saw that person at Xuansheng Pass.
It seemed like something big was going to happen.
Although he knew very well that with the strength of the person who was the best in the world, it was obviously impossible for someone to do harm to him.
Either he is tired of life or he is looking for trouble.
Then there is only one explanation.
Thinking of this, Liu Chengyong turned around and bowed to an old man with a white face and no beard.
"Father-in-law, this matter should be fine."
"It's okay? The emperor is gone, or it's in your territory. You tell me it's okay?"
That old man was naturally Eunuch Cao, the great companion of King Varonan VII.
When we were at the Hansheng Pass, this father-in-law also made a lot of efforts.
After all, the emperor can be willful and refrain from taking action even though he has the ability, but it is impossible for him to do so.
As the great companion of the leader of a country, he has to do things that the emperor does not want to do but must do.
Even the things that the emperor was not fit to do, he had to do.
In short, Eunuch Cao is the kind of person who is the best person to take care of things in private.
This is also the reason why he has been able to stand firm for decades and has always been favored by the emperor.
Moreover, don’t underestimate this Eunuch Cao.
Ouchi has a unique set of secrets that have been circulating for a long time.
As the general manager of the palace, Eunuch Cao naturally learned this set of martial arts secrets unique to eunuchs.
And he also cultivated this set of secrets to the highest level in history.
If I must say it, in the entire imperial city, apart from the Ninth Five Supreme Being, Eunuch Cao has the strongest military force.
Even the four major guards who have been guarding the border for many years have to admit this.
This Eunuch Cao is really powerful!
And this time in the battle of Xianshengguan, Eunuch Cao also contributed a lot. If it hadn't been for her, many people would have died even if they won in the end.
Especially the generals!
If we really had to go one-on-one with the captains under Landis, I'm afraid not many of them would be lucky enough to survive.
Because of this, Eunuch Cao was very confident.
Not only does he look commanding, his eyes are higher than his head.
He turned back to being a guest and moved directly into the city lord's mansion in the capital of Western Plains Prefecture.
The euphemistic name means that there is no palace for the emperor to live here, so naturally the city lord's palace must be requisitioned for its use.
Liu Chengyong naturally did not dare to have any opinions on this point.
Not only did it not happen, but it was extremely cooperative.
After all, this is the popular person in front of the emperor, the kind who has been popular for decades.
Besides, he did make a lot of efforts in the battle at Xianshengguan.
Do you think the eunuchs in this world of high martial arts have no beards?
actually not.
That was burned in a fierce battle!
Because of this matter, Eunuch Cao was very angry in private.
But just when he was still aggrieved that his beard was gone, his master, the emperor of the empire, slipped out at some point.
Fortunately, Eunuch Cao had anticipated this and ordered Palace Master Liu to send someone to follow the emperor.
The result was amazing. One second he was staring at the other person, but the next second he was completely gone!
This is not bad!
Liu Chengyong looked anxiously at the big man who was silent and seemed to be brewing emotions.
Although he is the highest official in this area, the person in front of him is just a servant serving as a scout in front of the emperor.
However, even the prime minister's concierge is a seventh-grade official.
What's more, this person who serves is the Nine-Five Supreme!
Is that something ordinary people can do?
Therefore, Liu Chengyong's attitude is very understandable.
Regarding this dereliction of duty, Liu Chengyong was actually a little uneasy.
He didn't know if his father-in-law, who seemed a bit moody, would be unable to eat because of this incident.
As a result, the other party's reaction was far beyond his expectation.
"Okay, let's do this. You send people to watch the place where His Majesty disappeared. Remember, they are watching day and night. Watch to death! There must be no mistakes, otherwise... Hehe , do you understand what I mean?"
"...Yes, please don't worry, father-in-law, I will send someone to keep an eye on it. This time there will be no mistakes!"
After saying these words, Cao Yuan seemed a little tired and waved his hands.
"I'm tired. Please arrange for someone to take care of me. I'm going to sleep now. If there is any news from His Majesty, don't delay. Come and call me immediately!"
After saying this, the celebrity next to the emperor walked away leisurely with his hands behind his back.
This somewhat abnormal turn of events prevented Liu Chengyong from reacting for a while.
It wasn't until a while later that he came back to his senses and waved to his men.
"Go, send a few people to the place where you lost sight of people just now. Keep an eye on them all the time, day and night. Do you understand?"
The men were confused.
"But sir, there's no one there, what else are we looking at!"
"If I tell you to stare, just keep an eye on me! There's so much nonsense..."
After saying this, Liu Chengyong seemed to have regained some of his rationality. He was also panicking just now because he couldn't understand.
After I vented, I felt much better.
"This is an order. You must keep an eye on it. Anyone who appears must be seen clearly. Once you find someone with this appearance, you must not make any mistakes. Come and report to me immediately. No matter when, do you understand?"
"yes!"
Watching his men leave, Liu Chengyong breathed a sigh of relief.
Then that look of confusion came back.
Where did this person go?
How could a living person disappear so easily?
What's more, Eunuch Cao's attitude is also very strange. He is not worried when the emperor is gone.
Let us just stay there... Isn't this a desperate situation?
…
…
…
"Hey, I knew you didn't use your full strength before."
Varonan VII smiled, panting heavily, and managed to push himself up with one hand and stood up.
Then a stream of air suddenly appeared under his body, and it looked like two small boosters were installed.
Not seeing any movement from him, he rushed out in a swish.
That's not all. Two small airflows also appeared on his arms. The kind that you wouldn't know if you didn't pay attention, but it made the originally ordinary moves suddenly increase in power by at least four times!
As soon as this move was performed, the airflow in the surrounding environment suddenly became violent.
The scene was full of flying sand and rolling rocks, and the whole scene was extraordinary.
Faced with this menacing killing move, Li Yi not only did not panic at all, but instead laughed.
"Hahaha, you are still talking about me. We have been fighting for so long. Do you think it will have any effect on me?"
"And haven't you still not used your true skills until now?"
When he said this, the voice was still there, but the person had disappeared.
The next moment, Li Yi appeared directly behind the storm, which was a quiet place behind flying sand and rocks. Li Yi just used a dodge technique to avoid the opponent's fierce-looking moves.
But if you know him, you will be surprised unconsciously.
You must know that the Dodge Technique can only move to the enemy's side. This ability to move to a position without anyone out of thin air has exceeded the initial level of the Dodge Technique.
In other words, I don’t know since when, Li Yi’s dodging technique has been upgraded again!
And this is all thanks to Varonan VII in front of him!
By now, Li Yi actually had no fighting spirit.
He didn't expect that the other party really came to him for a discussion instead of fighting for his life.
The battle with the emperor was not life-threatening, but allowed him to gain a lot of experience points for many of his original skills and upgrades that he had not seen in a long time!
At this time, Li Yi actually no longer regarded the other party as an opponent.
Just when he was about to say something with a smile, his expression suddenly changed.
