ng… Young Master…"Liu Qing looked at Yun Hao,Eyes widened, face filled with shock, excitement, and ecstasy!Spirit… just now, the young master used spirit!The young master can cultivate martial arts no...Gengjin belongs to a high-end refining material, containing an extremely abundant amount of metallic substance. Furthermore, Yunhao obtained a large piece of Gengjin from the imperial treasury.

His heart pounded like a drum, the fiery energy within it surging forth in an instant, flooding into the celestial realm of the spleen.

The energy of the spleen, belonging to earth in the world, is activated, swirling heavy Qi into the lungs of heaven and earth.

Under the refining of the "Taichu Creation Secret Manual," the lungs, like a whale swallowing water, absorb metallic substances from the Geng Jin metal!

His breathing gradually became longer and stronger.

A metallic sheen also appeared across his entire body.

The intensity of the spiritual body rapidly increased, with an endless stream of vital energy and qi being generated!

………

It has been three whole days since Yun Hao was taken away by the teleportation array on the street.

The city guards protecting the imperial city, the Six Doors maintaining order in the capital, the Imperial Guard protecting the palace, the Dragon Guards safeguarding the emperor, and even the Bao Dan Lou, Qing Feng General Academy, and the Celestial Master's Institute are all searching relentlessly for Yun Hao's whereabouts. They have searched every corner within 500 miles of the imperial city, but he remains nowhere to be found.

News of the battle that took place outside the Imperial City has also spread within the city walls.

The number one general under the rebel leader Murong Botao, the notorious deputy head of the Blood Fiend Hall, and an extremely fearsome demon, three cultivators at the Guiyi realm appeared, suspected to be attacking Yun Hao.

But these three masters of the Grand Unification Realm were all hacked to death by the headmaster of the Ba Dao Mountain Villa.

The Crown Prince, through the Imperial Astrologer Yuan Chunqing, found Eastern Baichuan and inquired about whether he had seen Yunhao.

Dong Fang Bai Chuan stated that he had never seen Yun Hao before. As for the three Gui Yi realm cultivators, he said they were killed by him in collaboration with an unnamed powerful array master.

Nor has anyone associated the so-called powerful array masters with Yun Hao.

After all.

Although Yunhao demonstrated immense spiritual power at the Qifeng Institute, everyone knew he only possessed that level of power after consuming a Soul Pill within the Lixin Pond.

Strong spiritual power does not necessarily mean a high level of array mastery.

Moreover, Yun Hao's mental energy had just skyrocketed to such a powerful level, where would he have the time to learn about formations

Yun Hao's life and death touched the hearts of countless people.

This also raised countless questions among the public.

Yun Hao was extremely talented, and when something happened to him, Qifeng Academy went crazy searching for him. This is very normal.

The royal attitude is too intense, even more so than the Qingfeng Courtyard!

And.

Yesterday was not just the day Yun Hao was taken away by the teleportation array. Several princes and princesses were also assassinated, the second prince was seriously injured and dying, and the third prince died on the spot...

In the past, such an event would have been a sensation throughout the entire dynasty.

...Only the Celestial Master's Academy in the Imperial City was handling this matter.

The importance of Yun Hao has even surpassed everything else... What is it about Yun Hao that makes everyone so eager to move heaven and earth

………

Chu Mansion.

The largest manor in the inner city of the imperial palace.

Because this is the mansion of Grandmaster Zhu Kong, a master of the Way of Formations.

Although Chu Kong held no official position, no one in the entire Qingfeng Dynasty dared to ignore his influence.

This is the first master of formations from the Qifeng Dynasty.

The Imperial City's Nine Dragons Shocking Heaven Formation was also built by Chu Kong with his own hands.

It can be said,

The safety of the imperial city, 50% is in the hands of the royal family, and the other 50%, is in the hands of one person, Chu Kong!

Since the Kowloon grand formation was fully established ten years ago, Chu Kong has never left his mansion.

As everyone knows, Chu Kong, a master array mage stuck at the peak of the Xuanjie upper grade, has tried his best to become a Xuanjie top-grade array mage!

It is now.

A young girl stood at the gate of the Chu residence.

The girl's eyes were red and swollen, and tear marks streaked her delicate face.

"Make way, I, the princess, wish to see Master Chu!"

"The Nine Dragons Heavenly Array enveloped the imperial city, and the rebels set up a teleportation array on the streets of the imperial city to scheme against Yun Hao. Such a big commotion, yet the Nine Dragons Heavenly Array didn't react at all!"

"The remnants of the Bloodfire Demon Cult are running amok, causing my third brother to perish. After the incident, the demon cult's remnants disappeared without a trace. Could it be that the Nine Dragons Shocking Heaven Formation couldn't even detect a single clue"

"This princess doesn't believe it!"

"This princess, today, no matter what, must see Grandmaster Chu!"

Chu Xin Yue has been here for several hours.

"Little princess, we... let's go back."

A maidservant approached, looking at Chu Xin Yue's appearance, feeling deeply sympathetic.

This little princess, though of noble birth and the emperor's favorite, is gentle and kind and never scolds or hits her maidservants.

Chu Xin Yue shook her head, her face full of stubbornness, and said: "I won't leave, I will stay here until I see Master Chu!"

At that moment.

At the gate, a man walked out.

"The little princess, please go back," the man said coldly.

Chu Xinyue: "Chu Song, go tell your grandfather, if he doesn't see me again, I will break into the Chu Mansion!"

This man is the grandson of Chu Kong, the first formation master of the Qingfeng Dynasty.

Chu Song frowned and said, "Little princess, please don't be so meddling. My grandfather has been in seclusion for ten years, not caring about worldly affairs, everyone knows this."

Remember, our Chu family is the most illustrious family in the Qingfeng Dynasty. Without my grandfather, there would be no Nine Dragons Sky-Shocking Array protecting the Imperial City!

Even if you are a princess, you have no right to break into the Chu Residence!

"That is all I have to say. I hope you, Princess, will take my words to heart and refrain from any further foolish actions that would upset everyone!"

Indeed, because of the shocking Kowloon Grand Formation, even her father emperor, when dealing with matters concerning the Chu family, had to think thrice before acting, being extremely cautious.

But as soon as Chu Xin Yue thought of the death of the Third Prince and Yun Hao who was still in limbo, her heart was pierced like a knife.

"I must go in! See if you can stop me, princess!" Chu Xinyue snorted coldly and charged toward the entrance.

Zhu Song stepped forward, blocking Chu Xin Yue's path, and shouted fiercely: "Princess, please return!"

"Get out of here!"

As Chu Xin Yue's words fell, the spirit of the Hwa Shen White Tiger materialized suddenly, a layer of dazzling and hazy light sweeping out.

A look of bewilderment suddenly appeared on Zhu Song's face.

Then, the jade pendant on his body suddenly emitted a layer of clear and calming light, shrouding him.

Chu Song, who had just come to his senses, shouted: "Since the little princess insists on doing this, don't blame me for being impolite!"

As he spoke, his hands formed seals, and a barrier of arcane light suddenly surged towards Chu Xin Yue.

With a loud bang.

Chu Xin Yue's figure instantly flew backwards, landing on the ground with a thud, and then she staggered back several steps.

"Princess..."

A group of guards nervously approached.

These guards are responsible for protecting Chu Xin Yue's safety, but... they dare not break into the Chu residence!

Without the emperor's command, to raid Chu's residence, one walks a path of death!

Even Chu Xin Yue daringly broke into the Chu Mansion, and the people of the Chu Mansion dared to lay their hands on her, it is enough to prove how strong the Chu Mansion's confidence is!

As long as the Imperial City still needs the Nine Dragons Sky-Shocking Array, then the Chu Mansion will be the guardian of the Imperial City!

"Attack!" Chu Xinyue roared.

"Princess, let's go..."

"Little princess, don't wander off again..."

"My princess, please listen to a word of advice from your servant..."

Everyone is advising Chu Xingyue to leave.

A touch of bitterness appeared on Chu Xin Yue's face. Yun Hao was still missing, and she didn't know if he was alive or dead. Was he imprisoned Was he being tortured

Immediately, the bitterness on her face turned into determination.

Even if no one supported her, she rushed towards the gate of Chu's residence once again.

Zhu Song let out a cold snort, and the power of an array formation instantly fell upon Chu Xinyue.

"Go back!" Chu Song roared.

Immense pressure crashed down on Chu Xin Yue. Her fists clenched tight, gritting her teeth, she strained with every ounce of her strength, forcing herself to bear the weight and take another step forward!

"I have to retreat, even if I don't want to!"

Chu Song's face contorted with anger, his hands forming seals. The power of the formation suddenly expanded several times over!

With a boom.

Chu Xinyue's body, like a kite with a broken string, flew backwards.

"Princess!"

"Protect the princess!"

A group of guards shouted in alarm.

But just then.

A figure, like a divine sword piercing the void, shot towards Chu Xin Yue and caught her.

"Hey girl, I'm sorry you had to go through that."

A familiar voice rang in Chu Xinyue's ears.

Chu Xinyue was taken aback, and she abruptly turned around.

When she saw Yun Hao, who had been so worried that he couldn't eat or sleep these past few days, and was crying all day long with worry, all her emotions instantly turned into tears bursting forth. She clenched her fists and punched Yun Hao's shoulder hard, then threw herself into his arms, her body trembling constantly as she cried until she became a tearful mess.

"It's okay." Yun Hao comforted softly.te him!Yun Hao reacted instantly, his figure flashing as he arrived before the giant ape's head. The sword in his hand darted out with lightning speed, its tip piercing through the giant ape's brow, t...
