Chapter 1017 (What is this place?)
Cheng Tian and Bei Wen waited for Yi Hong to explain.
"I don't know."
"..."
"So, who are you two?" Cheng Tian asked.
"Just passing through. You guys are really strange, don't seem to understand anything," Lu Hong said with a stifled mouth, then walked away with Yi Hong.
Leaving behind two bewildered individuals.
"It seems that in this Voidless Empire, the imperial palace is accessible to anyone."
"Yeah, why did we bother climbing over the wall? We could have just walked through the front gate," Cheng Tian chuckled, never having seen such a bizarre imperial palace.
"Let's go find someone."
"Agreed."
Next, Cheng Tian and Bei Wen walked into the imperial palace as if strolling through their own backyard.
They encountered two women walking gracefully towards them. This made Cheng Tian and Bei Wen pause. These two women looked incredibly beautiful, likely the consorts of Prince Ye. What a lifestyle this Prince Ye must have.
Approaching them were Zi Shan and Li Hun.
"Halt!" Cheng Tian shouted. These two women were acting as if they were invisible! Unbearable!
Zi Shan and Li Hun turned to look at the two, their eyes filled with confusion.
Facing this imperial palace, Cheng Tian had a head full of questions.
"Do you two have any business?" Zi Shan asked with an innocent expression.
"Where is the Empress of your palace?" Cheng Tian inquired.
Li Hun rubbed her chin. "You mean the Empress? She's inside the main hall."
Cheng Tian: "..."
Could it be this easy? Shouldn't they be silent even if they were to die?
"Cheng Tian, this place is not suitable for a long stay. Let's grab the person and leave immediately!"
Cheng Tian agreed with Bei Wen's assessment. It was time to act quickly; they could no longer afford to wander.
Having obtained the information, Cheng Tian and Bei Wen directly arrived outside the main hall, standing on the top steps. From there, they could overlook the entire Voidless Empire—an excellent vantage point.
The two exchanged glances and then entered the main hall!
A silhouette appeared before the two.
From her attire, it was apparent that this woman was the Empress.
However, they walked in without any hindrance. The imperial palace was terrifyingly silent, almost ghostly.
"Hey, who are you?" Cheng Tian shouted towards the figure.
Qing Ya turned around slowly.
Qing Ya's beauty instantly shocked Cheng Tian and Bei Wen. The feeling was similar to the first time they saw Qian Yuqing, an inexplicably stunning appearance.
The woman before them could easily match Qian Yuqing's beauty; she was simply breathtaking.
"Who are you?" Qing Ya pretended not to know and curiously asked.
Cheng Tian forced a smile and said, "Who are you in relation to the Emperor?"
"I am the Empress," Qing Ya honestly replied.
Cheng Tian and Bei Wen were excited inside. It was too easy to obtain this information. However, they had to be cautious.
"Well, we are here to invite the Empress. The Emperor is waiting for you outside the city," Cheng Tian said. If they could avoid a conflict, that would be ideal. If they could use words instead of force, all the better.
Qing Ya murmured, "I don't believe you."
Oh, this Empress still had a brain; the others before were fools.
"Empress, we are the subordinates of the Emperor, absolutely true," Cheng Tian assured.
Qing Ya smiled and suddenly, the main hall's large doors closed, and all the surrounding doors and windows shut.
The entire main hall plunged into darkness, causing Cheng Tian and Bei Wen's expressions to darken!
Suddenly, they felt four fierce auras hovering above their heads!
What on earth was happening?
Cheng Tian waved his hand, and the entire main hall lit up.
However, an incredible scene unfolded before them. Above their heads, four divine dragons were circling!
They were gazing at them with vigilant eyes. Where did these dragons come from?
Bei Wen looked at the red pillar. When they arrived, it seemed to be engraved with dragons! But the carvings had come to life! How was that possible? These were four giant worms!
"Did I... see things? Are these creatures from ancient times?" Cheng Tian rubbed his eyes, feeling like his worldview had been overturned.
The rarity of ancient creatures, especially dragon species, made them extremely hard to find. Now, four of them appeared, circling above their heads, and even drooling!
They look like they've just seen a feast.
"Empress, is there a misunderstanding between us?" Bei Wen whispered. This was not the time for reckless actions. If it was just one divine dragon, they might try to confront it with Cheng Tian, but facing four of them was unnecessary. It was better to run away.
Bei Wen glanced around, and the Empress they had seen earlier had disappeared. When did she vanish? He had no idea!
Just as Bei Wen was puzzled, the dog they had seen before walked out and extended its paw, raising its middle finger.
What did that mean? Although they didn't understand the gesture, Cheng Tian and Bei Wen felt it was no good. The contemptuous look seemed to be mocking them.
"How boring." Another voice echoed, and the Green-Red brothers appeared.
"It's you!"
Then Zi Shan and Li Hun came in.
"It's you!"
Zi Shan and Li Hun shrugged, never encountering such foolish Overlords before.
However, Wei Chang, Lie Gu, and Jue Tian, among others, also came in one after another.
Cheng Tian and Bei Wen suddenly felt the pressure. The main hall was now filled with people.
Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi also appeared beside the throne.
"Kneel before the Lady!" Wei Chang said in a low voice.
Cheng Tian and Bei Wen were now unable to concentrate. What kind of place was this? A dragon's lair?
Jue Tian coldly ordered, "Kneel!"
A terrifying aura instantly pressed down on Cheng Tian and Bei Wen, and involuntarily, they kneeled.
At this moment, the four divine dragons roared, then entwined around the pillar above.
This scene left Cheng Tian and Bei Wen dumbfounded. Could this be done? Not even the Emperor Fei had done such a thing. They actually sealed divine dragons on a pillar!
And these people!
With just a word, they displayed such a terrifying pressure, along with this dog!
It even showed the disdain of a king.
As a royal guard, Cheng Tian felt insulted today. If a dog disdained him, it was disrespecting the Emperor—unforgivable!
"Are you from the Spirit City?" Donghuang Baizhi asked indifferently.
As the voice of Donghuang Baizhi echoed, Cheng Tian and Bei Wen looked up, realising that another beauty had appeared! Damn! So beautiful!
There were too many beauties around!
