There was something wrong with my past life

Night falls.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ning Ye took the sword master's sword and went back with Dongfang Qingyue, wanting to see how Chu Ran's breakthrough was going.

But when he entered the room, he only saw Chu Ran sitting in the room peeling oranges and eating them. As for Nangong Ritian, he was nowhere to be found.

"It's still early, brother, you're back too early. It's hard to come out once, so you should have a nice stroll with Miss Qingyue!" Seeing Ning Ye and Dongfang Qingyue coming back, Chu Ran let go Holding the orange in his hand, he complained with regret.

Looking at the appearance, I wish the two of them could just spend the night outside.

"Why are you alone, where is the third brother?" Ning Ye asked curiously.

"Oh, not long ago, the third brother said that he would first go to the imperial city where the Emperor of Sun and Heaven is, so that we don't have to worry and will be back soon."

"Ah? Didn't you say you would infiltrate in the middle of the night? Why did you plan so early?"

"I don't know which god is attacking the imperial city like crazy. There is chaos in the imperial city now. The third brother said that this is a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity that must not be wasted, so he won't wait for you and Miss Qingyue to come back. Yes, we have moved the plan forward."

Hearing Chu Ran mention this, Ning Ye couldn't help but look at the wooden sword of the sword master hanging on her waist. She was the Shengxian he said was madly attacking the imperial city.

"Hey! Isn't this the same type of sword owned by the sword master? Ning Ye, you got so excited and whittled one off? It's pretty good, at least it's enough to show off!"

Chu Ran, who noticed Ning Ye's gaze, also naturally noticed the wooden sword on his waist.

However, he never thought that this was the original sword of the sword master, and thought that Ning Ye got the same style.

With that said, Chu Ran stretched out his hand, wanting to grab the wooden sword of the same style and play with it.

However, before his palm touched the wooden sword, his whole body was bounced away and he fell off the stool.

Chu Ran stood up and dusted off his butt: "Why is this sword so weird? Ning Ye, where did you get it back from?"

Ning Ye smiled bitterly, and then began to tell him about the origin of this wooden sword and what happened before.

In fact, Ning Ye had already expected Chu Ran's defeat just now. For some reason, the sword master's sword, the best in the world, was only allowed to be touched by himself. As for the others, even his disciple Dongfang Qingyue could not touch it. Not allowed, she had been ostracized before.

…

…

While Ning Ye was chatting away, Nangong Ritian had quietly sneaked into the royal city.

The reason why he acted alone was naturally due to his considerations.

With his current Daoist realm cultivation, although he is not unscrupulous and arrogant in the world, he can still be regarded as the top group of strong men. If he is holding the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure and the Heavenly Scroll, if he cannot defeat him and wants to escape, as long as the other party is not A perverted existence like the sword master can still escape safely.

Thinking back to the time when he brought oranges to visit for the first time and was almost hacked to death by the sword master, he still felt terrified.

Fortunately, he had the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure to protect his body. If he had been killed by mistake at that time, there would really be no consequences. It is estimated that the family would not fall out with a being of the level of the sword master for a dead genius.

Because of what happened at dusk, the imperial city is still in chaos. Although there are no casualties, there are too many buildings damaged by the sword energy, which require a lot of energy to repair. And in the imperial city There was a shortage of manpower, and in the end the Imperial Guards in the city were called in to carry out the cleaning work.

Therefore, Nangong Ritian's infiltration work went very smoothly, and he entered the royal city without any obstacles.

But then, he faced a problem——

The imperial city is so big, but where does the Emperor of Sun and Heaven live?

After thinking about it, he caught a maid who was alone and wanted to get the answer to this question from her.

However, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

The maid said that the Emperor has always lived in seclusion and never needed anyone to serve him. The entire West Palace was a restricted area for them, so she did not know which hall in the West Palace the Emperor lived in.

Unwilling to give up, Nangong Ritian erased the memory of the maid meeting him, and then asked several attendants in the imperial city. The answers were similar, and they didn't know where the emperor lived.

Looking at the West Palace where the palaces stretched in the darkness, Nangong Ritian felt a headache.

Although he had a premonition that he and the Emperor of Sun and Heaven would hit it off and talk happily, but if he couldn't see the person, there would be no need to talk about anything. Moreover, after sneaking into the imperial city, he could detect the auras of several powerful men with cultivation levels no less than his own. If he had just let go of his spiritual consciousness and searched boldly, he might not have seen that mysterious person before he could. The Ritian Emperor will be treated as an intruder and attacked in groups.

"Hey, it's better to ask for help than to ask for help yourself. I'd better find it myself slowly."

With this idea in mind, Nangong walked towards the West Palace every day, preparing to use the stupidest and most effective method to search palace after palace.

But before he could take a step forward, he felt his left foot was hooked by something.

Nangong Ritian lowered his head with great curiosity, and what he saw was a pair of shining krypton alloy dog ​​eyes, which startled Nangong Ritian.

Well, it’s really dog ​​eyes!

A black dog that reached Nangong Ritian's thigh, with shiny black fur all over his body, was biting his trousers, staring at him lovingly.

This affectionate feeling was not Nangong Ritian's nonsense, but something he felt intuitively when he saw the black dog's eyes.

What makes him feel very puzzled is that he has been standing here before. With his Taoist cultivation, no disturbance can escape his perception. So how did this black dog approach him silently?

Nangong Ritian, who loves small animals very much, was afraid that it would make a noise and make the hidden plan fail, so he used Taoism to make the black dog sleep peacefully.

After using the Tao method, logically speaking, it should have fallen asleep immediately, but the black dog was still full of energy, biting Nangong Ritian's trouser leg, with the aura of insisting on Qingshan and not letting up.

Now, Nangong Ritian was stunned. He had never thought that his latent plan would be disrupted by a black dog.

He didn't dare to make too much noise for fear of being discovered by the strong men in the imperial city, so he could only choose to be soft.

He took out a roasted chicken from the storage ring and placed it in front of the black dog: "Here's the roasted chicken for you, Mr. Dog, please just let me go!"

But the black dog turned a blind eye to the roasted chicken and didn't even bother to look at it.

Just when Nangong Ritian was at a loss what to do, the black dog made a new move, biting his trousers and pulling outwards, as if he wanted to take him somewhere.

And the direction he was traveling in was exactly the destination he was heading to in the first place, the West Palace where the Emperor of Heaven was that day.
