Hide in the Banished Palace and Level Up To A Big Boss-Chapter 47 - The Leaving of Concubine Jing

In the underground palace beneath the White Dragon Creek.

Zhao Wu and Zhao Laoqi were sitting in a secret chamber.

“That expert is a green-robed eunuch? Are you sure?”

Zhao Laoqi still found it hard to believe.

“Yes! Several Elders said the same thing. I even heard that it was the one from the imperial palace of Xia!”

“Hiss!”

Zhao Laoqi took a deep breath.

He couldn’t believe that there was such a figure in the imperial palace of Xia.

Now he understood everything!

“Brother Wu, here are a few of your fellow Xuan Sect disciples. If you suck their power and blood, you’ll be able to improve quickly. I still have things to do!”

Zhao Laoqi dropped a book of methods and left in a hurry.

He couldn’t allow his Black Dragon Gang to operate in the Imperial Capital anymore.

If they annoyed that man, the whole gang could barely resist a single strike of his sword.

Even the Grand Elder and Senior Grand Elder of the Xuan Sect had been killed.

They had entered the third level of Perfected Person for more than a hundred years.

The Black Dragon Gang, however, never had any members reaching the level of Perfected Person.

To reach that level, they would need to suck the blood and power of perfected experts.

It was not a question of whether they could capture a perfected expert or not.

Just considering their current cultivation, they would explode and die from sucking the power of perfected experts.

“Pass my order of withdrawal from the Imperial Capital. All members who have once lived in the Imperial Capital of Xia should leave Nanzhou. Those who have seen the Lady need to be secretly executed.”

Zhao Laoqi was afraid of being tracked by that eunuch.

He could only grit his teeth and kill all the members who knew about Liu Rui.

The Black Dragon Gang withdrew from the Imperial Capital overnight.

The imperial court was baffled.

Did it speak for the surrender of the Black Dragon Gang?

“I think the Black Dragon Gang knew they couldn’t win. They were worried about being punished, so they withdrew in advance.”

“They are so sneaky!”

The Emperor hated this situation.

The victory was just around the corner.

Just when he thought about getting rid of the Black Dragon Gang, they ran away in advance.

At the battlefield of the front, Liu An and An Mu were in a succession of victories.

The experts of Clan Zhao were also distracted by Liu Yu and his team, who were fighting with Clan Zhao.

Every day, there were Clan Zhao experts killed by Xia Wuji.

As for Clan Zhao’s supreme warriors of the Spirit Manipulation Realm, the Second Lord had already killed them all.

The ultimate triumph was getting closer and closer.

After the big war, many people were tired of the war.

Though the Black Dragon Gang tried to incite a rebellion, there were not many followers except for veteran soldiers.

After six months, members of the Black Dragon Gang were forced to go off into the mountains and live as bandits.

After the imperial court eliminated the main army of Clan Zhao, all that remained was to eliminate the bandits.

The imperial court then found itself out of money.

“Your Majesty, heavy taxes should be levied on the rich families of noble clans, as well as the warriors.”

The minister in charge of the Ministry of Revenue said so with his memorial.

His words immediately started chaos in the courtroom.

“Minister Huang, are you insane? Taxing the warriors of noble clans? What if you force them to rebel again?”

“The imperial court has just been relieved from the war. Are we expecting another big war? ”

“If we don’t tax these people, it won’t take long for our country to collapse. We need money to fight the bandits and resettle the victims.”

Minister Huang said.

In a word, the Ministry of Revenue had no money.

It would be ridiculous to ask ordinary people for money.

Nowadays, the people were no different from exiles. They could hardly find ways to survive.

“From now on, we have to be frugal! We should reduce the expenses in the palace. ”

The Emperor made his decision.

At this point, what else could be done?

By the Tianlong River, Li Mu finally captured a senior member of the Black Dragon Gang.

It had been half a year.

Li Mu had captured a number of Black Dragon Gang members, but none of them knew Ruirui’s whereabouts.

Every once in a while, Noble Lady Zhen would come and cry at the Shouning Palace.

“Where is the headquarters of the Black Dragon Gang?”

Li Mu pinched his fingers into the shoulder blade of a senior Black Dragon Gang member.

“The location of our headquarters? Bah, you’ll never… Ah, ouch!”

“Tell me or not?”

“No!”

Click!

The man’s shoulder blade was crushed into pieces by Li Mu.

“Tell me or not?”

Li Mu said indifferently.

The killing will in his eyes was like a harsh sword qi raging over the Tianlong River.

“I… I can’t tell you!”

Click!

The other side of the shoulder blade was crushed.

Both arms of this senior Black Dragon Gang member drooped down.

“You can choose not to tell me, but I’ll crush your bones bit by bit. I’ll then peel off your skin, and also cut off your flesh in small pieces.”

Li Mu showed no trace of expression on his face.

This senior Black Dragon Gang member trembled with every word coming out of Li Mu’s mouth. Li Mu could feel it clearly.

As expected, these gang members were just trash. Without much experience, they only knew about enjoyment.

Just a little bit of threat could make them scared.

“At the White Dragon Creek on Mount Mang!”

In the end, this senior Black Dragon Gang member couldn’t withstand Li Mu’s intimidation.

“What a waste of cultivation! Shame on the Spirit Manipulation Realm. I wonder how you were trained.”

Click!

After saying so, Li Mu directly twisted the man’s throat and left.

The Black Dragon Gang was hiding under the White Dragon Creek. Interesting!

He knew about Mount Mang, but where was the White Dragon Creek?

Back at the Imperial Palace, Li Mu once again went up to the Library Tower.

After looking around and flipping through multiple maps, he found many places with a “creek” in their names, but no names with “white dragon”.

“Whatever! I’ll check these places one by one! I won’t believe that there is no one coming in and out of their headquarters. As long as there are traces of people, I’ll catch them.”

When he returned to the Shouning Palace, it was already dawn.

In the Taihe Hall, Liu Yu stood in front of the Emperor.

“Do you really want to leave with Empress Jing?”

The Emperor asked. He stared at Liu Yu, who seemed to be quite determined.

It was since the return of Li Yu and his team that the State of Xia began to quickly reverse its unfavorable situation.

As long as Concubine Jing was in the palace, the Emperor could use her to keep Liu Yu.

“My mother has been trapped in the palace for many years, unable to enjoy the happiness of being with family members. For years, I have been working hard for what I want to do today.”

“Alright then!”

The Emperor didn’t force him to stay.

With few cards left in his hand, forcing others to stay would be in vain.

In that case, they might turn against him, which would make things worse.

In the morning, Noble Lady Zhen came again.

The moment she left, four people with deep and strong breath were approaching the Shouning Palace.

Li Mu, who was tidying up the courtyard, turned around.

It was three men and one woman!

They were all cultivators of the Spirit Manipulation Realm. One was at the supreme level; one was at the upper level; and the other two were at the medium level.

They kept their pace and came straight to the Shouning Palace.

But one person’s footsteps sounded a little messy.

“Hmm? This man’s breath…”

What a familiar breath.

As they got closer, Li Mu became excited.

They paused for a moment at the entrance of the Shouning Palace.

Creak!

The courtyard door was pushed open, and several people walked in.

“Mother!”

One of them ran straight to the palace.

Li Mu didn’t stop him.

Concubine Jing and Liu Yu had a long chat in the palace. In fact, it was Concubine Jing who was talking all the time. Liu Yu just listened.

Concubine Jing talked about all the “fake news” sent back by Li Mu over the past decade, still treating them as real news.

Liu Yu kept nodding his head.

He looked at Li Mu with gratitude.

He has now understood the difficulties Li Mu had to deal with in years.

After quite a long time, Concubine Jing called Li Mu in.

“Yu’er wants to take me out to see the outside world. That’s what I want too. Xiaolizi, go pack your luggage and leave with us!”

Concubine Jing’s eyes were filled with affection.

“Thank you for taking such care of me, my Lady! But I haven’t completed the mission assigned by you. Once I have the news of Princess Ruirui, I will definitely let you know.”

“You are so considerate! But finding Ruirui is not something you are capable of.”

“If I stay, when the Fourth Prince returns, I can tell him where you are, my Lady. Are there any other messages you want to leave to the Fourth Prince?”

Li Mu bowed his head and said.

He didn’t want to leave with Liu Yu. Not now.

For one thing, he had not found Ruirui yet. In addition, he was not yet ready to be a guest at Clan Xia.

“Hmm! It’s good for you to stay. After all, you don’t need to worry about not having enough food in the palace.”

Concubine Jing nodded her head.

When they left, Liu Yu handed the jade left by Liu Ling to Li Mu.

“This is kind of my identification jade. It will help you to find me.”

After saying that, he handed Li Mu a map.
