“I know where it is, but I can’t go there!” Wang Xing immediately said, “The Earth-Numbered Secret Palace requires identity verification, and those below the fifth level of the Yuanfu Realm simply do not have the qualifications to enter.”
“The Heaven-Numbered Secret Palace is even more restricted. Those below the Tiangang Realm are not allowed to approach. Even the guards are at the level of the fifth to ninth levels of the Yuanfu Realm.”
Ye Wushuang swiftly beheaded Wang Jue with a single stroke of his sword. Then, turning to Wang Xing, he spoke calmly, “I am a descendant of the Ye Clan, one of the few remaining members whose bloodline is connected to mine…”
Upon hearing this, Wang Xing’s face turned pale with distress.
Ye Wushuang had made up his mind. Even if it meant venturing into a dragon’s lair or a tiger’s den, he was determined to proceed.
“To enter the Heaven-Numbered Secret Palace, we’ll have to make a big commotion,” Wang Xing said, gritting his teeth. “There are about ten powerful individuals at the fifth to ninth levels of the Yuanfu Realm within the entire underground palace complex. Six of them are guarding the Heaven-Numbered Secret Palace. If we can lure those six away, we’ll have our chance to get in.”
“But…” Wang Xing looked at Ye Wushuang earnestly, “Are you sure? I truly have no idea what lies within the Heaven-Numbered Secret Palace. Once we enter, the chances of survival are slim.”
“Making a big commotion…” Ye Wushuang already had a plan in mind.
“Let’s go to the Human-Numbered Secret Palace.”
The so-called Human-Numbered Secret Palace was the location of the pavilions they had left earlier, where the prodigies of various great families at the Ningmai and Yuanfu levels were imprisoned.
Go to the Human-Numbered Secret Palace?
Why?
Qing Shihua and Qing Shiyu raised their eyebrows in confusion.
The four of them left the place and returned to the pavilions once again.
“Prince Wang Xing, why are you…”
Whoosh…
The guards stationed outside saw the four returning and began to speak, but before they could finish, Ye Wushuang struck with his sword, eliminating the four guards in an instant.
Rushing into the pavilion, Ye Wushuang showed no mercy and slaughtered the twelve guards inside one by one. These were all Ningmai-level individuals, posing no real challenge to him.
Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, Wang Xing felt truly hopeless this time. After this incident, if they managed to survive, he would never be able to return to the Tianji Mansion.
At that moment, Ye Wushuang stood in the main hall on the first floor, holding his sword and looking at the rows of cages around him. Dozens of Ningmai-level disciples, imprisoned there, looked at Ye Wushuang in confusion. Had the Tianji Mansion fallen into chaos?
However, when Ye Wushuang removed the veil from his face, some of the people’s eyes widened in astonishment. Many of the prodigies from the great families recognized Ye Wushuang.
“It’s you!” one of the Qin family disciples, at the ninth level of Ningmai, exclaimed, “Ye Wushuang, you’re actually here to save us?”
“Qin Li!” Qing Shiyu also removed her veil, her voice cold and distant, “We’re not here to save you!”
“We’re just here to rescue a few disciples from our royal family. Since you’re all from the Qingyun Academy, we might as well save you too!”
Wang Xing stepped forward and unlocked the chains of the cages one by one. Dozens of disciples from various great families gathered together. Among them, several leaders, all at the ninth level of Ningmai, looked at Ye Wushuang with ill will. Even though Ye Wushuang had rescued them, he had killed many people from the five great families in the past. This grudge could not be easily settled.
Ye Wushuang looked at the dozens of people and said indifferently, “Why aren’t you running? Do you actually want to kill me here?”
Qin Li from the Qin family snorted coldly, “Ye Wushuang, you’ve saved our lives, but don’t think that this will erase the grudges between you and our five great families!”
“I never thought it would,” Ye Wushuang replied, “If you want to fight now, I’ll oblige.”
Qin Li and the others exchanged glances, then without another word, they all left the hall.
The guards inside the hall had been killed, and those outside had been slain as well. The Human-Numbered Secret Palace was farther from the town, and the dozens of people gradually dispersed, searching for an exit.
But at that moment, Wang Xing limped out of the Human-Numbered Secret Palace, his spiritual energy erupting as he roared, “Help! Help! The prisoners from the Human-Numbered Secret Palace have escaped! Prince Wang Yunjie has been killed! Help!”
At that moment, hearing the terrified cry that seemed to echo throughout the entire town, the disciples of the five great families, including Qin Li, froze like statues, stunned in their tracks…
