Chapter 706: The Last Expectation
Palace. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The imperial city at night is very quiet, but it is also more solemn.
Today, the moon stars are scarce, and the bright moonlight is sprinkled down, reflecting the inside and outside of the imperial city in a particularly majestic light.
Inside the Suzaku City Gate, a figure was slowly sliding down the base of the city wall.
The moonlight is very abundant, and the chance of being found has also increased countless times, so even with his current martial arts, he has to be cautious.
This person is Jian Chen.
Without alarming any of the defenders at the head of the city, he once again easily climbed over the wall of the Suzaku Gate, which was dozens of feet high, like a feather, and when he landed again, he was already in the imperial city.
He had already been here twice, and this time he came for the third time, and after landing on the ground, he only glanced around, and then his body spread, silently following the hidden road that the thunder tiger pointed out to him that day, which could avoid the open sentry and the secret post.
In a short time, it has arrived at the gate of Yingtian.
This is the only way from the imperial city to the palace city, last time Lei Hu found Zhao Zichao to lead away the defenders of Yingtianmen, but this time, he can only rely on himself.
It's just that even if there was no Zhao Zichao that day, with him and Lei Hu, it would not be difficult to sneak into Yingtianmen quietly, and the reason why Zhao Zichao was asked to help was most likely because Lei Hu had the intention of accepting apprentices, which just took advantage of this to test him.
At that time, Jian Chen's cultivation was far inferior to now, and he had the confidence to sneak in that day, let alone now.
It's just that he found a place where the defenders are relatively weak, so he repeats his old skills, even if Ying Tianmen is much higher than the Vermilion Bird Gate, but it can't match his cultivation up to the Grandmaster realm.
The road was like a bamboo, and the Great Inner Forbidden Land seemed to him to be a no-man's land at this time, just half a pillar of incense, and Ying Tianmen had been left behind him.
After entering Miyagi, his caution increased significantly.
The place where the Son of Heaven was, it looked dark and silent now, but Jian Chen knew that the silence was just a layer of camouflage on the surface.
I don't know when, out of the darkness, a cold, dark dagger will emerge that will take people's lives.
Besides, he was not familiar with this palace city, and all he relied on was the impression that he had been there once that day.
Therefore, he still chose the old path.
Sneak at the bottom of the pool.
If there was any place in the palace that he was most familiar with, it was the Imperial Garden, which he wanted to go to that day, and it was there that he happened to meet the old man who claimed to be surnamed Chu.
Later, according to An An's analysis, the old man surnamed Chu was the son of today, that is, he only found out not long ago, his uncle...... Tang Xuanzong!
Familiar with the road, he rushed to the Manna Palace, and jumped without hesitation, and the fragrance of the lotus pond was already pouring in his nose.
With the faint silver light from the Qianfeng short stick, he held his breath tightly, kept shuttling at the bottom of the dark pool, rushed through the South China Sea Pool, and then found the exit from the West Sea Pool, and the top of his head was already suddenly bright.
The North Sea Pool, where the Imperial Garden is located, is already overhead.
The internal force converged, and the silver light on Qianfeng suddenly went out, and it returned to pitch black again, only his extremely bright eyes were flickering slightly.
The Imperial Garden is overhead, and the destination of his sneaking into the Imperial Palace today is also here, will the old man surnamed Chu, who claims to be the gardener of the Imperial Garden, still practice calligraphy on it?
And he ...... Is it Tang Xuanzong, the overlord of the world?
When he learned the truth from the Jade Void True that day, he decided to come here.
Grandfather and uncle, this was the family affection that the two wanted to get when he was an ignorant teenager, but now......
When he got closer to the truth thirteen years ago, he was shocked to find that the family affection he had been longing for was just something that others casually discarded.
Grandfather?
His grandfather wiped out the entire Luo family with his own hands, and killed his mother with his own hands in front of him when he was still young.
Grandfather?
As the head of the Pure Yang Sword Palace, and the former prince of Pure Yang, when he learned that his biological daughter was in trouble, he confessed because of a retreat, and then ignored it, even after leaving the customs, in the face of his daughter's tragic death, he could sit firmly in the position of the Pure Yang Sect for thirteen years with peace of mind.
And also...... Uncle?
As a powerful person in the world, the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, how could he ever ask Princess Xuancheng, the cousin?
These people are the relatives that Jian Chen can find at the moment, who are still alive in the world, and who have a slight blood relationship with him?
Affection...... Where?
The reason why he came to the palace was the last bit of longing in his heart.
It's not because his uncle is the emperor, he wants something out of this big tree.
It was not because his uncle was the emperor that he wanted to seek the help of Tang Xuanzong to help him avenge this blood feud.
When he came here, he just wanted to ask in person, after putting aside any mundane status, to ask his uncle, thirteen years ago, you were among them...... What role did it play?
Even if Tang Xuanzong said in person that he had ordered an investigation into the destruction of the Luo family, then he would have the last consolation in his heart.
At least, there were still people who worried about the Luo family's affairs.
After going through so much, this is the last glimmer of hope in Jian Chen's heart, the last point...... knows that in this world, he is not the only one who is running for the Luo family's affairs.
This is really an extremely important thing for him who has repeatedly gone crazy, he wants to prove that the blood he has shed, the people he has killed, all of this is worth it, not only he cares, but everyone else is desperately trampling on his efforts.
Because it is important, it is hesitant.
Hidden at the bottom of the pool, even with his skill cultivation, he already felt a burst of tightness in his chest, which was a sign that his breath was about to run out.
It can also be seen from this that for Jian Chen, who has a long qi vein, how long did this hesitation last.
The last glimmer of expectation, going up, may be gone.
There was silence in all directions, except for the occasional bubble that rose from Jian Chen's mouth and rose to the surface of the pool, making a gentle cracking sound.
Until there was no more oxygen left for him to stay at the bottom of the pool.
This is the end of the hesitation, what should be faced, always faced!
Gritting his teeth, the light in his eyes was like two snow-white blades, cutting the dead pool in half.
His feet kicked violently, and the last breath in his chest was poured into his feet, like a meteor flying upside down to the sky, flying towards the surface of the pool.
Whoa!
The body gently rises out of the pool surface.
Located in the heavily guarded palace, hesitation is hesitation, and he will not be less vigilant, and when his head just surfaced, he had already scanned all around.
No one, except for the sparkling moonlight, was silent.
