Chapter 1402: Chapter 1402: Mysterious Figure

The Mysterious Silhouette

Thousand Tents Palace is the highest standard palace in the Bei Luo Empire, and as the venue for the Queen’s coming-of-age ceremony, it is naturally held within this palace.

This palace, even older than the Tower of Eternal Winter, has been in existence since the emergence of the Bei Luo Empire. Despite numerous renovations, it shows no signs of age.

On the contrary, it has an even greater solemnity and dignity, giving off a Western sense of weight and solidity.

"Gentlemen, we have arrived at our destination."

The driver, struggling with his Xia Country language, spoke to the three passengers. Mo Ningchen, sitting in the passenger seat, tipped the driver and then got out to open the car door for Su Chengyu.

In these details, Mo Ningchen naturally would make no mistake that could reveal his identity.

Su Chengyu and Fang Qing, disguised again as You Ming, got out of the car. He could feel Fang Qing’s nervousness at this moment—her slightly accelerated heartbeat and somewhat rapid breathing showed just how incredible it was for You Ming to step into this place.

Su Chengyu wanted to say more comforting words, but Mo Ningchen ahead softly said, "The Imperial Palace of the Bei Luo Empire is still not quite there. Remember my first time entering the Purple Gold Hall? I felt so pressured that I hardly dared to raise my head."

Fang Qing looked at Mo Ningchen surprisingly upon hearing this and asked, "You’ve been to the Purple Gold Hall?"

"Of course, and if nothing unexpected happens, this guy will have to take a trip there after we return to Xia Country."

Hearing their conversation, Fang Qing’s eyes widened. She only knew that both of them were from the Demon Slayer Department and was not aware of their specific roles. Now she was somewhat frightened and asked, "You two aren’t Saint Envoys, are you?"

Mo Ningchen looked at Su Chengyu in surprise upon hearing this, and seeing Su Chengyu with an indifferent expression, he didn’t press further and just smiled, "What do you think?"

Fang Qing was internally shaken by these words. Su Chengyu was still in Lin Jiang when Fang Qing realized that this man was no ordinary individual.

But even so, how much time has passed since they last met? And now the other party has become a Saint Envoy of the Demon Slayer Department?

Even Fang Qing, who knew Su Chengyu, found it hard to believe this was true.

"Let’s talk about it when we get back, let’s focus on the matter at hand."

Su Chengyu spoke gently, knowing that because of Mo Ningchen’s comment, Fang Qing was full of doubts at the moment, but now was not the time to discuss these matters. As they arrived outside of Thousand Tents Palace, Su Chengyu sensed countless gazes falling on them.

Naturally, these people would not know what Su Chengyu and Mo Ningchen had said, but even with Fang Qing’s solid disguise, she couldn’t demonstrate You Ming’s strength.

Fang Qing, also aware of this, recalled what Su Chengyu had instructed her before they arrived.

Speak little, do less.

Knowing she couldn’t help them in any way, the only thing Fang Qing could do was to try her best not to hinder the two.

"Have you sensed the presence of the Nether Clan?"

Using the transmission method, Su Chengyu actively spoke to Mo Ningchen, and he asked this precisely because he did not perceive anything unusual.

Mo Ningchen also slightly shook his head: "They’re all normal gazes, aside from those Bei Luo Empire folks who are curious about our identities, the ones lurking in the shadows should all be from the Bei Luo Royal Family."

Su Chengyu nodded without saying anything. After all, the three of them were guests from outside, and it was understandable that the people from the Bei Luo Empire paid them a bit more attention.

If someone from Bei Luo were to visit the Capital Royal Palace, they would receive the same level of scrutiny.

The only thing that made Su Chengyu feel strange was that after entering the Thousand Tents Palace, he hadn’t sensed any Divine Sense at the Earth Immortal level. Logically speaking, the Thousand Tents Palace should certainly have top-notch experts of this realm guarding it.

Was it hidden so well that he hadn’t detected it?

Contemplating curiously, Su Chengyu quietly spread his Divine Sense outwards, wanting to see at what level of infiltration would attract the attention of an Earth Immortal within the Thousand Tents Palace.

His Divine Sense expanded along the way, encompassing the entire banquet’s periphery from his location, enveloping all the guests attending the celebration. Su Chengyu could clearly hear what these people were saying and what they discussed.

Yet even then, there seemed to be no one inside the Thousand Tents Palace who wanted to stop him.

Just as Su Chengyu noticed this puzzlement, an odd disturbance suddenly attracted his attention from a secluded corner.

Out of curiosity, Su Chengyu extended his Divine Sense toward that direction, only for a cold Divine Force to clash with his and instantly disperse his Divine Sense.

Hmm?

As his Divine Sense scattered, Su Chengyu’s brow immediately furrowed, and beside him, Mo Ningchen also cast a puzzled look, asking, "What’s wrong?"

Su Chengyu shook his head, his gaze quickly darkening. He lifted his head to look at the banquet center, where everything seemed peaceful, a trace of gloom flickering in his eyes.

"I need to step away for a moment."

Watching Su Chengyu drop this remark and preparing to leave, Mo Ningchen said, "The event is about to commence; be quick."

"I know."

After dropping these words, Su Chengyu turned and left, instantly shaking off any little tails that had been following him around the corner and thoroughly concealing his presence, disappearing into the darkness.

Several figures who had followed Su Chengyu quickened their steps as they realized something was amiss.

Then, staring at the empty dead-end alley, the guards from the Thousand Tents Palace looked at each other in confusion, completely at a loss.

Even though they were hardly convinced, they quickly left the alley to report the incident.

Su Chengyu, hidden in the shadows, only slowly revealed himself after confirming that these people had completely departed.

With no Land Immortal Divine Sense covering this area, Su Chengyu was confident in shaking off anyone who was watching him here.

However, he knew that these people were merely bit players. The actual cause for concern was the silence of the Land Immortals inside the Thousand Tents Palace and the power that had nearly severed his Divine Sense earlier. That was what Su Chengyu truly cared about.

Who could it be?

Someone from the Nether Clan, or perhaps it was a person from His Royal Highness the Regent, gathering all the distinguished officials of the Bei Luo Empire together—what exactly did His Royal Highness the Regent want to do?

Amidst Su Chengyu’s internal speculations, he had already arrived at the place where his Divine Sense was shattered.

In a secluded yard connected to the wall within the Thousand Tents Palace.

With the yard already deserted, Su Chengyu’s footsteps were particularly distinct as he looked around and spoke softly: "There’s no need to hide anymore, it’s just me alone. I don’t care who you are, but doesn’t sneaking around during the Bei Luo Queen’s coming-of-age ceremony seem a bit impolite?"

As a member of the Bei Luo Royal Family would definitely not engage in anything special in such a remote location, so Su Chengyu was nearly certain the individual disrupting his Divine Sense was either someone arranged by the Regent or an infiltrator from the Bam Alliance who had sneaked into the Thousand Tents Palace.

Just as Su Chengyu finished speaking, a colorless Sword Qi, without any warning, slashed towards him.

Instinctively, Su Chengyu drew back his hands before him, the Dragon Slayer Sword immediately appearing in his grasp to counter the Sword Qi, at the same time propelling Su Chengyu several meters backwards.
