"General Yuan."
Two female soldiers stopped Lin Yan.
"I have something urgent to do with the princess."
Lin Yan said without changing his expression.
The two female soldiers had doubts on their faces and looked at him in surprise.
Is there a flaw somewhere?
Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat.
"General Yuan."
The female soldier on the left said respectfully, "According to the rules of Dongnu Kingdom, you are not allowed to see the princess before the Mountain Turning Festival."
In the Third Age, psykers were few and far between.
They have never been seen as ordinary soldiers.
Although they found it strange, they did not suspect that Yuan Xuefeng had been switched.
Because this is beyond their knowledge.
"I know the rules."
Lin Yan made amends for himself and said, "But this matter involves the safety of the princess."
"General Yuan, you don't have to worry."
The female soldier on the right replied, "Nothing will happen as long as our guards are here."
Lin Yan could hear a hint of pride and elation.
There may be some story behind the city defense camp and the escort.
"I hope so."
Lin Yan glanced at the two of them and made sure that they would not break the rules, then turned and left.
He came outside the palace wall on the left, and his appearance changed again. It was one of the two female soldiers just now.
Travel a thousand meters in an instant!
Lin Yan activated the skills given by Bai Ruomeng.
His body suddenly burst out at extreme speed, and he stood firm again, already inside the palace.
Lin Yan thought it was teleportation or flashing, but it was not, it was acceleration.
He had just climbed all the way up the city wall, climbed over, and entered the palace.
The guards patrolling on the road only felt a gust of wind blowing by, and could not see his figure at all.
Lin Yan sat in a remote corner panting, his feet even numb.
This feels like a forced sprint of a thousand meters, which is quite difficult.
But I have to say, the effect is very strong.
With the speed that he could travel a thousand meters in an instant, he felt that even the second-level psykers might not be able to catch up with him.
The only pity is that it can only be used once a day.
After Lin Yan rested for a while, he started to take action.
He has successfully entered the palace, and the next step is to find the princess Chi Yu.
According to Yuan Xuefeng, she lived in a palace named Yulinling.
Lin Yan activated his hunter instinct.
Although he can change shape, it is best not to be discovered.
The palace is very big.
Lin Yan gradually investigated from left to right.
Suddenly, he stopped.
In his perception, the palace not far away gathered a large number of guards, at least hundreds of them.
The defense in other places is simply improved dozens of times.
Lin Yan approached cautiously and took a look.
What comes into view is a bare palace.
The reason for describing it that way is because the palace gates I saw before must be decorated with rockeries, pavilions, ancient trees, etc.
Luofengjing.
Lin Yan saw the plaque hanging on the palace.
He backed away slowly.
There are hundreds of well-trained warriors, but he alone cannot defeat them.
After all, he is only at the first level.
Lin Yan continued to move forward and finally found the palace named Yulinling.
Doors and windows are guarded.
He looked around, climbed to the roof of the side hall, used the Eight-sided Han Sword to open a hole the size of a person, and jumped in directly.
Lin Yan sensed Chi Yu's position, but there was no psychic reaction on her body.
He exhaled, ordinary people, that would be easy.
Standing at the door, he gently pushed out a gap and had a clear view of the situation inside.
A girl in luxurious palace clothes was tied to the bed, and even her mouth was blocked with a silk scarf.
Lin Yan looked confused.
Am I in the wrong place?
He thought for a moment and walked directly into the room.
The sound of footsteps made the girl subconsciously raise her head.
She saw a strange young man and couldn't help showing an expression of surprise.
After a moment, she burst out with a strong desire to survive, struggling continuously and making whining sounds.
"Shhh."
Lin Yan noticed the change in her expression and said, "If you don't want to die, don't scream."
The girl's beautiful pupils shrank slightly, and then she nodded heavily.
Lin Yan took out the wet silk scarf from her mouth and threw it aside.
As expected, the girl didn't yell. She breathed the fresh air greedily.
After a moment, she said seriously: "Take me to the Mountain Turning Festival and I will give you a reward."
Lin Yan frowned.
His mission was not accomplished.
Sure enough it's not that simple.
"Why do you have to go to the Mountain Turning Festival?"
Lin Yan asked in confusion.
As far as Yuan Xuefeng is concerned, the Zhuanshan Festival mainly involves dancing and singing to pray to their gods for good weather in the coming year.
He couldn't see anything special about it at all.
"I'm going to save people."
The girl took a deep breath and said.
"Save who?"
Lin Yan looked at her and asked.
"Princess Chi Yu."
The girl was silent for a moment and spoke slowly.
In her current situation, she couldn't find any other helper except Lin Yan.
"You're not a princess?"
Lin Yan asked in surprise, "Then why are you tied up here?"
He now understood why the mission had not been completed. It turned out that the princess had disappeared.
This is really troublesome.
"My name is Chi Yan, and I am the princess's adopted sister."
Chi Yan closed his eyes in pain, "Originally, I was supposed to be a sacrifice to go to the Zhuanshan Festival."
Lin Yan couldn't help but be stunned.
He had never heard Yuan Xuefeng say before that living people would be used as sacrifices during the Zhuanshan Festival.
And haven’t living sacrifices been abolished long ago in this era?
Why is there still such viciousness in the Eastern Women's Kingdom?
But now is not the time to delve into this issue. According to Chi Yan, Chi Yu must be in trouble.
"I'll take you out."
Lin Yan said immediately.
If Chi Yu dies, his mission will definitely fail.
"Thanks!"
An expression of gratitude suddenly appeared on Chi Yan's face.
Lin Yan drew out the Eight-sided Han Sword and cut off the ropes on her body with a few strokes.
"You...are you the envoy of God?"
Chi Yan was startled by the Eight-sided Han Sword that appeared out of thin air. At the same time, a strange emotion appeared in her eyes.
"you know?"
Lin Yan glanced at her in surprise and asked, "Or have you seen it before?"
"The Imperial Master of the Western Liang Dynasty, Shangguan Tianzhi."
Chi Yan nodded and said, "It is said that Luofengjing was built by him."
Lin Yan was thoughtful.
Is Luofengjing a regular and rare object?
"Do you know what the Luofeng Well is used for?"
Lin Yan looked at her and asked.
"If you drink the water from Luofengjing, you will get pregnant. If you give birth to a baby girl, you will stay in the Eastern Women's Kingdom, and the baby boy will be given to the Western Liang Dynasty."
Chi Yan explained without hiding anything.
It’s really the setting of a daughter’s country.
Just as Lin Yan was about to say something, the sound of opening the door suddenly sounded outside.
"It's time for breakfast, princess."
The door was slowly opened.
"We can't let her find out!"
Chi Yan suddenly said nervously.
Lin Yan looked her up and down, stepped forward, knocked the maid unconscious with the hilt of his sword, then supported her body and slowly lowered her body.
Chi Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
"Let's go, Your Highness Princess."
Lin Yan looked at her and said with a slight smile.
Chi Yan's body trembled, panic appeared on his face, and he subconsciously took two steps back.
