The Mu Residence was silent, and it seemed slightly different from a few months ago.
As Mu Ruyue stepped in, she almost bumped straight into Li Lu, who was coming out. When he looked up, his eyes brightened at the sight of the girl standing before him, "My lady, you've returned? Just now, the Emperor sent someone with a decree asking for your presence at the palace, and he has already summoned the Ghost King as well."
To the palace?
Mu Ruyue's brows furrowed slightly, and she nodded, "Alright, I understand."
For some reason, she felt a vague unease in her heart. Could something go wrong during this visit to the palace?
"Right, Li Lu, if I do not return after a long while, go to the Qingyun Sect's station here and find an old man named Elder Zhao. Ask him to go to the Imperial Palace to find me."
Having said this, she no longer lingered and turned to walk out the door.
