Chapter 3557: Palace Lord Invites
"No, it's my father who wants to see you and Fellow Daoist Cheng. He just sent me a message specifically." Chen Xuan'er said seriously.
At this time, the atmosphere inside the carriage suddenly became quiet.
Qin Xue and Long Ke both looked at Qin Cheng and Duobao with strange expressions.
Even if Qin Xue comes less often, Long Ke has stayed in the Bloody Arena for many years. Not to mention meeting the master of the Shadow Palace, even if he went to see him from a distance, he never saw him once.
As the supreme commander in charge of the behemoth that is Shadow City, the Lord of Shadow Palace has always been like a dragon, which gives people a rather mysterious feeling.
After all, Shadow City exists in the gray area of Kyushu Continent and is independent of Kyushu and the demon clan.
Although it is not as powerful as the palace lords of various states in Kyushu Continent, maintaining this kind of city requires more bloody and ruthless tactics.
Chen Xuan'er's father, who can organize and become the controller of such a place, is definitely the top powerhouse in the mainland.
"Does the Shadow Palace want to see us?"
Qin Cheng was also a little surprised.
Everything changed so fast. Originally, I only planned to come to Shadow City to earn some spiritual stones and then ran away. However, step by step, I actually had to meet the palace master.
"But, what does the Lord of Shadow Palace want from me?" Taoist Duobao asked with a frown.
"As for your father, you two fellow Taoists don't have anything to worry about. My father has a very tolerant personality and won't embarrass you. I guess he may have a love for talents." Chen Xuan'er said with a smile.
"Furthermore, Fellow Daoist Cheng is seriously injured now. My father won't talk too much and delay your healing time. I think we will arrange for you to go to Lingchi Palace to recover."
Mentioning her father, Chen Xuan'er's eyes also flashed with respect, and it was obvious that she admired her father quite a lot.
Everyone was talking, and the chariot quickly arrived in front of a huge and magnificent palace.
Qin Cheng glanced outside a few times.
The palace is towering, occupying the most prominent position in the City of Shadows, like an ancient giant beast, lying across the ground.
When outside the Shadow City, the tall city wall blocks almost everything, and the only thing that can be seen is the tallest underground palace in the city.
I just didn't expect that not long after arriving in Shadow City, I would actually enter the place as a guest.
Dozens of tall and powerful guards wearing armor stood on both sides. When they recognized the owner of the chariot, they immediately bowed and saluted.
The chariot did not stop, but drove directly into the palace after the palace door slowly opened.
"Sister Qin and Fellow Daoist Long are taking a break here. Fellow Daoist Cheng, please follow me."
Several people walked into a side hall. Chen Xuan'er smiled and arranged for the attendants to serve spiritual tea, and then led Qin Cheng and Taoist Duobao inside.
Taoist Duobao's eyes were darting around, and he felt a little suspicious in his heart.
"Qin Cheng, I understand that the Lord of the Shadow Palace invites you. What does he want from me? It's not to buy a puppet."
"You think too much. This only means that the other party already knows the identity of our companions. Our puppet is bluffing, which is fine, but for such a strong person, forget it." Qin Cheng shook his head.
Don't talk about yourself, even with the blood woman's strength, it is easy to kill dozens of puppets, but the Shadow Palace Master should not take a fancy to this thing.
"Then you want us to join the gang?"
"There's no need to make wild guesses, you'll figure it out in a moment."
The two people communicated and walked through the long corridors. When Chen Xuan'er opened a door, they immediately heard the hearty laughter inside.
"Are the sword god master and his friends here? Please come inside."
An old man who looked like a housekeeper walked to the door of the palace and greeted Qin Cheng and Taoist Duobao with a smile.
Chen Xuan'er, on the other hand, did not follow him in, but backed out.
This palace is not large in area, but the decoration is exquisite and magnificent. As soon as you enter the door, you will feel a full sense of oppression.
In the copper furnaces on both sides, the light smoke of the lit spiritual incense fills the air. The fragrance is fresh and elegant, can soothe the mind, and contains pure spiritual energy.
The ground beneath your feet is paved with the finest amethyst crystals, and the dome inside the palace is dotted with stars and glittering with all kinds of luminous pearls.
Being accustomed to the big world, Qin Cheng and Duobao were not frightened by this situation. After walking through the screen, they finally saw the owner of the laughter before.
On a throne, a man stood up slowly.
This is a middle-aged man with a sturdy back and a strong look. He is wearing a luxurious uniform, has a rather regular appearance, thick eyebrows and big eyes, giving people a good impression that it is easy for people to trust him and get close to him.
As for his cultivation level, Qin Cheng couldn't see clearly, but it should be at the second level of the Tribulation Realm, but close to the third level.
"Fellow Daoist Cheng and Daoist Hu, I am very happy to finally meet these two young geniuses. Meet me, Chen Su."
The middle-aged man smiled very kindly and extended his hand to invite Qin Cheng and Duobao to sit opposite him.
The maid served fragrant tea, which was rich in spiritual energy and fragrant. It was obviously a good spiritual tea.
He waved his hand to drive away the old man and the maid, leaving only the three of Qin Cheng in the palace.
"In the battle just now, Fellow Daoist Cheng, I looked back through the spirit array and found out that my strength was really amazing. Unfortunately, I have too many worldly affairs to take care of. I only found out about you after listening to my little girl's voice transmission. I almost let you down."
I'm really sorry for being tricked by a villain." The Shadow Palace Master said with a slight smile.
"It's just a small trick, but Taoist friend Xuan'er helped me, so thank you to her." Qin Cheng said with a smile.
The Lord of Shadow Palace waved his hand casually and chatted with Qin Cheng for a few more words.
"Two fellow Taoists, I, Chen Su, speak directly, so let me tell you straight away, you are probably not Jiuzhou Lu cultivators." The Shadow Palace Master smiled.
"Don't rush to deny it. There are no geniuses like fellow Taoists on the Kyushu continent, nor are there any puppets like the one you two refined."
"In my opinion, these two are the rumored foreign monks, right?"
"Your Majesty, the Master of the Palace, is knowledgeable and knowledgeable. I admire you."
When the other party saw it, Taoist Duobao raised his hand and did not deny it.
Qin Cheng was not surprised either. In fact, it was okay for them to hide their identity as outsider monks from the ordinary monks in Jiuzhou Continent, but almost all powerful people at this level had heard about it.
"It's just hearsay, but this is the first time I've seen it with my own eyes."
Seeing that neither Qin Cheng denied it, the Shadow Palace Master smiled even more.
"But I didn't expect that after finally meeting two geniuses from the upper realm, you almost lost your lives at the hands of those bastards from Bloody Lei. I feel very guilty in my heart."
He looked to one side.
"Uncle Li, take a bottle of my treasured healing elixir and give it to Mr. Cheng."
The old man who was responsible for leading the group appeared and respectfully handed a porcelain vase to Qin Cheng.
"Palace Master, this is too polite."
Qin Cheng frowned and took a look at this antique elixir bottle that had never been opened. He knew that the elixir inside was probably worth a lot of money.
When you are polite, you must ask for something from others.
As soon as he came up, the master of the Shadow Palace gave such a big gift, it was definitely not as simple as making friends.
