Chapter 491 Escape (Part 2)

PS: I went to bed late last night and had a splitting headache. I wrote too slowly. I'm afraid the next update will not be in time.

At the eclipse of the moon, Prince Cheng's mansion fell into a peaceful sleep.

The four men in black sneaked towards the palace silently, like four shadows, passing the wall lightly, without anyone noticing.

Xu Huande fluttered to the ground, sighing helplessly in his heart.

He didn't expect that his majestic deputy commander of the Secret Guard Mansion would pretend to be an assassin one day, and he couldn't help but laugh at such a scene.

But thinking about the Guangming Sacred Cult, he immediately put away his helplessness, and now it was all up to Chu Li to see if he could find a disciple of the Guangming Sacred Cult.

Finding out why the Bright Sacred Sect came to the capital, whether it was for assassination or for other things, is the top priority of the Secret Guard Mansion.

The emperor has repeatedly asked about this matter, forming a strong pressure on the Secret Guard Mansion.

Unable to figure this out, the Secret Guard Mansion is ashamed of relying heavily on the emperor.

Among the secret guards of the Forbidden Palace, only Chu Li has the ability to find the disciples of the Guangming Sacred Cult, otherwise there is no need to obey him and mess around with him.

Chu Li must have both public and selfish intentions in doing so.

Chu Li was rejected by Prince Cheng, and he would never accept this anger obediently, and would definitely retaliate by adding chaos to Prince Cheng's residence.

"Who is it!" There was a low cry from among the flowers, and finally someone found the four of them.

Xu Huande said in a deep voice, "Withdraw!"

"There's an assassin!" A guard shouted from another place, breaking the tranquility of Prince Cheng's mansion.

Several figures rushed towards the four of them.

Xu Huande was followed by the top experts in the Secret Guard Mansion, the four of them teamed up, they didn't want to hurt anyone but just escaped, and quickly rushed out of the mansion.

After a while, they were about to escape from the palace.

"Hmph!" A deep shout sounded, Chen Kong stood on the roof, blocking their way, and looked at the four of them coldly: "Be bound obediently, and spare your lives, Chengwang Mansion is not where you come and leave whenever you want Where to go!"

Xu Huande said solemnly: "Get out of the way, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!"

After finishing speaking, they rushed towards Chen Kong.

Three figures landed beside Chen Kong, and together with Chen Kong they faced the four of Xu Huande, and the eight of them fought together in the blink of an eye.

Xu Huande fought against Chen Kong, and the two were indistinguishable.

"Bang bang bang bang..." Amidst the muffled sound, the two made more than twenty moves.

The remaining six people are also hard to distinguish, they are all top masters.

The elites of the palace are all here, and if they want to catch them, if they can't catch them this time, they might come again next time, so it will be a lot of trouble.

"Bang bang bang..." The sound of palm impacts shook the entire palace.

Everyone in Prince Cheng's mansion huddled in the room knowingly, holding back their curiosity and not going out.

After an appointment for a cup of tea, another man in black appeared and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"

"Chief Chu!" Chen Kong shouted angrily.

Chu Li was dressed in black, covered his face, and smiled: "I have admitted the wrong person!"

"What are you doing here!" Chen Kong shouted angrily.

Chu Li said with a smile: "Let's see what is hidden in Chengwang's mansion, and if there is something shady, we are not allowed to enter the mansion to check."

"You are so courageous!" Chen Kong roared angrily, "Aren't you afraid that the prince will join you?"

"We have already given the prince face, the prince is really ignorant, then don't blame us for not being sympathetic in the Secret Guard Mansion!" Chu Li snorted: "Let's go!"

He said and drifted away.

Xu Huande and the other four also drifted away.

Chen Kong waved his hand, signaling the guards around him not to stop him.

"Old Chen, just let them run away like this?" A guard whispered, humming unconvinced: "Especially that Chu Li, who is so crazy that he didn't pay attention to our palace!"

"Go and check if there is anything missing." Chen Kong snorted, "Also, let's see if everyone is damaged?"

"...Yes." The guard knew that Chen Kong didn't want to chase him any more, so he could only agree.

Chen Kong looked at the direction where Yekong Chuli and the others disappeared, and frowned.

He also had doubts in his heart, why was Chu Li so persistent in wanting to investigate into the palace, could there really be spies in the palace?

——

The five of Chu Li returned to the Miwei Mansion, and the lights in the Miwei Mansion were brightly lit.

When they came to the hall, the other three had already gone back, and Chu Li and Xu Huande entered the hall.

"How is it?" Xu Huande didn't even have time to take off his black scarf, and immediately asked, "Is there anyone from the Holy Sect of Light?"

Chu Li said in a tone of voice, "There really are!"

"several?"

"one."

"Catch them tomorrow!"

Chu Li said: "Invite Chen Kong here and explain it clearly to him, he must also understand what to do."

"Will he believe it?"

"After all, he is a disciple of the Holy Cult of Light, and he would rather believe in it. If he doesn't believe it, he should try it himself, and he should be able to try it out."

"...I'm still worried." Xu Huande shook his head and said, "Let's catch it ourselves."

Chu Li said: "I'm afraid it will be very troublesome. Cheng Wang's mansion will deliberately find fault, and it will cause stumbling blocks. Maybe it will let people go."

"Isn't it?" Xu Huande frowned.

Chu Li said: "What do you think King Cheng will do?... If you really want to let you in and capture the disciples of the Guangming Sacred Cult, what happened to King Cheng's previous actions? Arrogant and ignorant? Stupid?"

"His face is more important than the disciples of the Holy Cult of Light!" Xu Huande snorted.

Chu Li smiled.

Xu Huande was also shrewd and capable, his face darkened, thinking about Chu Li's words.

King Cheng can really do it.

Chu Li said: "They caught it by themselves, and the situation is different. There is nothing wrong with Chengwangfu, and they saved their face."

"I really didn't expect that," Xu Huande looked him up and down and shook his head: "You can still think about them."

"Public is public, private is private." Chu Li smiled and said, "I can clearly distinguish between public and private."

"...Okay, I'll talk to Commander Chen." Xu Huande was noncommittal.

He didn't believe that Chu Li could distinguish between public and private.

If he can enter the palace of Cheng Cheng and arrest the disciples of the Holy Cult of Guangming, the Miwei Palace will earn enough face, and it will be more important to speak on the side of the emperor, and it will be less restrictive in its actions in the future.

If Cheng Wangfu was allowed to capture the disciples of the Guangming Sacred Cult, more than half of the achievements of Miweifu would be lost.

His position determines that he is inclined to the first type, directly arresting people, subconsciously ignoring the risks.

Chu Li saw his thoughts clearly, and chuckled lightly: "Bring the pen and ink."

Soon someone sent a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the inkstone had been ground.

Chu Li picked up a brush and drew a portrait, which was done in one go and was lifelike.

He picked it up and blew it, and handed it to Xu Huande: "This should be the guard of the Chengwang Palace."

Xu Huande glanced down and nodded, "Okay, I'll talk to Chen Kong tomorrow and ask him to catch people."

Chu Li smiled and said, "I want to rest for a few days."

"...Okay." Xu Huande said in a deep voice: "If he is really a disciple of the Holy Cult of Light, then you have completed the task and you can rest for a while."

Chu Li said: "You will know once you catch it."

——

In the early morning of the next day, Chu Li was practicing Tianmo Kungfu in the small courtyard, when Director Chu's voice came from outside: "Director, there are two secret guards from the Forbidden Palace outside asking to see you."

"Let them come over," Chu Li said.

Dong Qifei and Yang Zongwen came to the courtyard.

They clasped their fists and saluted, their faces gloomy and ugly.

Chu Li glanced at the two of them and kept moving.

Dong Qifei couldn't hold back his words, and said in a deep voice, "Captain, he ran away."

Chu Li stopped his movements; "Run away?"

Dong Qifei gritted his teeth and snorted, "Prince Cheng let people go on purpose!"

Chu Li looked at Yang Zongwen.

Yang Zongwen said: "Commander Xu took us to Chengwang's mansion, just after talking to Chen Kong, someone escaped inside, it was exactly what we were looking for."
