"You know?" Bai Yun was so shocked by Ku Jue that she asked back, she was really surprised.

Ku Jue nodded silently and changed the subject, "Nie Bai did all this for a woman. No one has ever seen this woman. She was hidden in the deep palace by Nie Bai."

"If you want to solve all this, you need to solve the problem of that woman first."

After the last word was spoken, Bai Yun fell into deep thought.

Her original idea was to take the opportunity to get rid of Nie Bai.

But she didn't expect that things were far more complicated than she imagined. Nie Bai seemed to have magic, which meant that he might have memories.

but……

how can that be possible?

Did he sneak in?

No matter what, Bai Yun could not treat him the same way as before. Now she knew nothing. According to Ku Jue's words, she could only approach the woman first.

"Then we really can't be sure where the woman is?" Bai Yun's voice was filled with sorrow, yet still graceful and melodious, like the sound of nature.

This made Ku Jue feel uncomfortable again.

Bai Yun's voice is inexplicably very similar to that woman's voice, and every time you hear it, you will lose your mind.

"Once... I saw her once in the main hall." Ku Jue looked dazed, as if he was lost in some memory.

That aspect almost made Ku Jue lose his composure.

That person seemed like a fairy from heaven, with beautiful facial features and a charming smile. She was so beautiful that even the gods could not compare to her.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and ripples appeared in the lake of bitterness in the heart.

A vague feeling of resentment arose in my heart.

He clearly hated that position the most before, but now...

Ku Jue closed his eyes and calmed his breath.

He couldn't let anyone discover his secret.

"Later, she was imprisoned by Nie Bai in Qiu Fengtai. There was a palace built by Nie Bai for her. They were about to get married."

"Wedding?!" Bai Yun's heart trembled at the shock of these two words. She thought of Nie Bai's "forced marriage" on her in her memory.

Her memory was not fully restored. Many of her memories of guarding the hall were only important parts, but she had lost most of the process.

Now it seems vaguely that her experience with this woman...

same.

A terrible guess arose in Bai Yun's heart.

Would Nie Bai capture other women to satisfy his perverted desires?

When Bai Yun thought of this, she felt extremely disgusted.

"But that was in the past." Ku Jue's tone suddenly became long and revealed a hint of emotion.

"Even if you go to Fengtai now, you may not be able to find her."

Bai Yun frowned and asked, "Why?"

Ku Jue said solemnly: "Since the last time we parted, I have never seen that woman again. I only heard that she was seeking Fengtai... Maybe Nie Bai moved her to another place. And..."

He hesitated to speak, as if he had something to hide.

"And what?" Bai Yun asked anxiously.

"And as far as I know, Nie Bai has an unpredictable personality, and no one knows what he will do next. Therefore, it will be extremely difficult to find that woman, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get close."

"No, they are about to get married, and Nie Bai will not hide his thoughts." Bai Yun retorted subconsciously, but when she said it, she was stunned.

Does she already know Nie Bai's character so well?

Ku Jue was slightly stunned, and a hint of surprise flashed across his cold face.

He didn't expect that Bai Yun would actually want to take advantage of the wedding day, which would be more dangerous. However, judging from the current situation, he would only have a chance to get close to people on that day.

"But the wedding is only three days away, and now the city gates have been sealed."

Otherwise, Ku Jue would not have used the teleportation array.

"Three days..." Bai Yun was also a little troubled. Her brows were slightly furrowed and her mind was in a mess.

Just at this moment, lights suddenly came on outside and the sound of dense footsteps was heard, as if soldiers were coming.

Bai Yun's face changed, and Ku Jue beside her immediately pulled her over, and the two of them quickly hid in the side hall behind them.

It seemed that no one had lived in the side hall for a long time. As soon as Bai Yun entered, he could smell a strong musty smell and heard the sound of the door outside being pushed open.

"The Emperor has ordered that every corner of the palace be searched from now on!"

"Search!"

A rough and powerful voice was heard, obviously coming from the leader of the army. After the words were spoken, a loud response came from outside.

Bai Yun and Ku Jue exchanged glances, and the latter pushed Bai Yun past first, "You leave first. Nie Bai must have discovered our secret. I will lead those people away."

Bai Yun's eyes flickered, and she suddenly asked, "Are you really not leaving?"

A strange look flashed in Ku Jue's eyes, and he looked at the woman in front of him calmly.

Unfortunately, the other person was wearing a veil and he couldn't see her expression clearly.

He suppressed his doubts and nodded heavily, "It's too late. Please go to the east of Fengtai. Don't go to the wrong place."

So clear...

Bai Yun's breathing slowed down. She looked at Ku Jue carefully again, but because she was in the dark, the darkness blocked everything and she could not see clearly.

But this person is strange.

Bai Yun used to be naive and even ignorant of the world, but after recovering most of her memories, some of her cognitions became more and more "perfect".

The observation became more and more careful.

From the moment Ku Jue appeared to the moment he brought her here, Bai Yun felt that things were going too smoothly.

No matter how stupid Nie Bai is, he would not leave alone such a person with outstanding abilities in this world.

And if someone really was chasing him, Ku Jue would not be able to stay in that deserted city.

He might really be a master, but he definitely hid something from Bai Yun.

But I must go to the Qiufengtai that he mentioned!

At this point, Bai Yun calmed himself down, turned around and left resolutely without the slightest hesitation.

He looked at her back in despair, with a look of confusion in his eyes.

She may never come back.

But——everything is fate.

"Squeak-"

The door of the side hall was slowly opened, and a tall and mighty figure walked in. It was none other than Wu Xu, the leader of the army and the commander of the imperial palace guards.

"National Master?" Wu Xu's voice sounded somewhat surprised, as if he had not expected Ku Jue to be here.

He winked at the people around him, and the soldiers immediately began searching the side hall in all directions.

Half a minute later, a young soldier came back and shook his head at Wu Xu.

Wu Xu breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at Ku Jue who remained silent, wondering, "What is the Imperial Master doing here in the middle of the night?"

Ku Jue did not answer his question, but changed the subject and said, "Come to see an old friend."

As he said this, his eyes fell on the next person, the meaning was self-evident.

Wu Xu was speechless for a moment.

As far as he knew, Ku Jue did have some connection with the girl next door, but that girl belonged to His Majesty...

It can only be said that Wu Xu really admired Ku Jue's approach.

He clenched his fist and said seriously, "We have finished checking here. I will leave now. Imperial Master... please leave early as well."

The last sentence was a piece of advice, with a hint of complexity, but Ku Jue remained calm, even revealing a hint of a smile as he nodded.

After everyone had left, Ku Jue climbed onto the roof in the night and his eyes fell on the yard next door.

There, a crazy woman was hiding under a tree, shivering and muttering incoherently from time to time.

It no longer has the same glory as before.

The night was as dark as ink, and Ku Jue's figure looked particularly slender under the moonlight.

He stood there quietly, his eyes deep and blurred, making it difficult to guess what he was thinking.

Half of his face was covered by shadow, while the other half was illuminated by moonlight, making him look even more mysterious.

After a while, the corners of Ku Jue's lips slightly raised, as if he was smiling, but that smile made people feel a little chilly.

"almost."
