Chapter 1027: The People in the Sect (2)
“There’s no rush. You guys eat first.” Yun Zihai shook his head and let them eat first. He turned around and walked towards his residence.
The butler could not understand her expression. He scratched his head in confusion and looked at a young servant girl beside him.”Why do I feel that there’s something wrong with Master?”
The servant girl was also very puzzled. After hearing the butler’s question, she shook her head to show that she was not too sure.
The servant who was guarding the door at the beginning interrupted,”Don’t worry too much about these things. I think the old master has encountered some problem, which is why he is like this. A big shot like the old master has a deep relationship with Prince Xu, so it is probably related to Prince Xu.”
Hearing the servant say the words “Prince Xu”, the butler’s expression changed slightly and he hurriedly reprimanded,”Shut your mouth. The old master doesn’t discipline us strictly because he doesn’t care about those things, but that doesn’t mean he can talk about Prince Xu as he pleases.”
“Do you really think you can speak casually? Prince Xu is currently the most famous figure. Don’t talk about him. Don’t lose your life for nothing, understand?”
The servant’s face turned pale after being reprimanded. He seemed to know that he had said something wrong and quickly nodded to show that he understood.
The butler did not say anything else and let the servants go to eat.
However, his eyes were looking at the rooms in the inner courtyard with some worry.
“Why do I feel an inexplicable sense of alienation? I don’t know…”
After answering his own question, the butler did not think too much about it and followed him to eat.
..
Yun Zihai returned to his room. He was not even interested in the two stone balls at the door. He sat on a chair and looked at the scenery outside through the window.
“When Brother Xu comes back, I’ll talk to him about this. For now, let’s do something else.”
After admiring the scenery for a while, Yun Zihai sat up straight and took out many books from the drawer beside him.
He should do what he was in. With Yun Zihai’s current position, he naturally had many things to do.
In fact, he could have handled it, but he had always believed in the creed of serving the people and being an official, so he gave himself a very heavy task every day.
Of course, he had given himself the responsibility of managing the land of the barbarians.
After all, back then, he had gained the recognition of the Chu Emperor because of an essay.
“After reading these things today, you can sleep.”
The sky had gradually turned dark. The slight sunlight that was originally still there had now completely disappeared. Yun Zihai lit the oil lamp and read the contents of the booklet with the light of the oil lamp.
There was a moment of silence in and out of the house, and only the sound of him flipping through the books could be heard.
He held the booklet in one hand and a brush in the other. From time to time, he would make a few comments or make some changes. Just like that, time gradually slipped away.
In the blink of an eye, it was late at night.
When Yun Zihai put down the last memorial in his hand, he stretched and got up to close the window.
He didn’t plan to rest, because the strange dreams he had a few days ago had made him not in the mood to sleep tonight. He was waiting for Xu Bai to come back tomorrow to discuss this matter with him, so he didn’t plan to touch those strange dreams again.
Yun Zihai was prepared to stay up all night. He closed the window and locked himself in his room. He would be able to relax tomorrow.
From where he sat to the window, Yun Zihai quickly came to the window. He raised his hand to hold the edge of the window and was about to close it when his hand suddenly stopped.
Outside the window, the moon hung high in the clouds, appearing unusually holy. Under the bright moonlight, Yun Zihai saw that his shadow on the ground was a little off.
The shadow that should have been normal suddenly twisted and danced like a snake.
Although it was only for a short time, Yun Zihai saw it.
“What’s going on?”
Yun Zihai instantly became alert.
He had already stepped into the Transcendent Realm, and his combat ability was not weak. Otherwise, he would not have risked his life with Xu Bai.
In just a moment, he reacted and raised his right hand.
A burst of righteous energy erupted from his body. At the same time, the bookshelves in the room trembled.
The book on the bookshelf turned into countless pages that wrapped around Yun Zihai. Every page contained a majestic aura.
Yun Zihai had played with the ability of a scholar to perfection.
He stared at the shadow on the ground. If the shadow moved, he would attack.
At this moment, Yun Zihai’s pupils constricted slightly as he saw an unbelievable scene.
“Who is it?”
He shouted loudly!
The shadow on the ground no longer twisted, but in Yun Zihai’s line of sight, a figure crawled out of the shadow.
As the figure emerged, the sense of danger in Yun Zihai’s heart disappeared, but the figure had already escaped far away under the moonlight.
“Trying to run!”
Yun Zihai controlled the pages around him and chased after the figure.
..
Under the moonlight, Yun Zihai shuttled back and forth in the shadows. The noble aura on his body was like a flowing river.
The figure in front of him was not far away from him, but it would be difficult for him to catch up in a short period of time.
However, during this pursuit, he seemed to have thought of something.
“It’s a very strange profession. It’s not any profession that I know of. Maybe I’m ignorant, but it’s not a profession that I can see normally.”
The aura that this figure exuded was extremely unfamiliar to him even with the way he fled. Most importantly, this figure was completely black like a shadow, and he could not see its face.
The black shadow moved quickly all the way, as if it did not want to meet Yun Zihai. Moreover, it was running out of the capital.
At this moment, Zihai felt that there were more than ten figures gradually approaching.
“Lord Yun! What happened?”
The leader shouted loudly. Yun Zihai came back to his senses and knew the identity of this group of people.
– ————————-
“Stop this guy. I want to see who he is!”The clouds came from the sea.
“Yes, sir!”
” Yes!” The leading Heaven Inspectorate member replied and led his men to intercept them from the side.
At this moment, the black shadow knew that its path was about to be cut off. It changed its direction and ran towards a place where there was no one.
However, before he could take a few steps, dozens of figures appeared from all directions and were rapidly approaching.
This was the capital, the core of the land of the barbarians. There were many hidden experts here. The Heaven Inspectorate had many spies here.
These spies were all set up by Shadow Moon. Originally, Xu Bai was guarding here and there was no need to worry at all, but Shadow Moon still set them up.
At this moment, it finally took effect.
There were people from the Heaven Inspectorate everywhere, and every one of them had strength above the Extraordinary Realm.
Now, the black shadow had nowhere to go and could only stop in midair.
There were no facial features, no clothes, and no one could see who it was.
However, Yun Zihai could sense a dangerous aura from this black shadow.
“Be careful! He was an extraordinary person!
He was also a Transcendent, and among the spies here, only a small portion were Transcendent.
Everyone was careful and prepared to capture the black shadow alive.
At this moment, the aura on the black shadow’s body rose again.
“Boom!”
Peak Transcendent!
Yun Zihai’s expression was somewhat solemn.
He did not have the strength of a peak Transcendent. If that was the case, it would really be difficult to deal with. After all, Xu Bai was still in the Great Chu Imperial Palace.
Although the black shadow did not speak, a murderous aura was circulating.
The people around them felt a lot of pressure, but no one took a step back. They gritted their teeth and persevered.
As the killing intent grew stronger and stronger, the black shadow raised his right hand and prepared to attack.
Everyone took a deep breath and prepared to fight to the death.
At this moment, a figure flew over from the direction of the palace’s treasury.
Before he arrived, he heard a voice.
“Brother Xu has treated me very well. I have been in the palace treasury for a long time and have recovered to my peak a few days ago.”
