"Hey, shouldn't they have arrived by now? Why are we still waiting?"

Now that the weapons are ready, except for the fact that they can't attack, this giant sword is pretty good in other aspects.

Thinking like this, Yuanhui felt a bit more at ease. Now, all Yuanhui had to do was wait for those people to arrive and then prepare to leave.

"Hehe, Sister Liangtong won't do anything to me, right? She wouldn't want my life, right?" Yuanhui said with a smile, trying to act cute, hoping that Sister Liangtong wouldn't be too harsh when it's time to strike.

Although Yuanhui felt a bit reluctant to leave this place, what had happened couldn't be changed no matter how hard Yuanhui tried.

Currently, most parts of Capital were engulfed in flames almost daily. The revolutionary army and the holy emperor's army were engaged in fierce battles within the city, flaunting the name of the Immortal Emperor Wuyanze.

In addition, the current Godrealm was in chaos, and the Star Empire was eyeing the Godrealm closely. It was very difficult for the Godrealm to rise at that time.

Since the end of the Tianmo War in the third year of the rise of the New Continent, the Star Empire had been causing trouble for them, with rumors saying that it was the Green Immortal who first launched the attack. As the only existence beyond boundaries at the time, the Star Empire established by the Green Immortal had always been a huge threat. However...

"There are rumors that the Star Empire has been inactive for the past few years, it's very likely that the Green Immortal has long since passed away."

"Is that so? Your master is really well-informed. By the way..."

"Hehehe, don't say anything. Ever since that old man from the Daoist Yinzi left us, his son has been helping me monitor every corner of the continent. So, you can rest assured!"

The sinister Yang raised the corners of his mouth, feeling like he was brewing some evil plan.

But all of that was not important now. The immediate priority was to leave this place. Of course, with the help of Yang, he naturally had a way to leave, provided that someone wouldn't cause him trouble.

Carrying the new meteorite heavy sword on his back, Yuanhui was very excited... although he couldn't wield it yet.

"Hehe, since it is a meteorite heavy sword forged from Divine Stone, once catalyzed with Chi, it will surpass the so-called weight of millions of pounds by tens of thousands of times, which means the meteorite heavy sword is actually a divine sword weighing tens of thousands of tons!" Yang introduced, feeling fortunate that Yuanhui currently didn’t have the ability to unleash the power of the meteorite heavy sword.

"...”

"Don't doubt your master's words. We've just found the whereabouts of the puppy, and there's no news from Luoshen and Neier yet. But as long as we don't run into any problems, with Luoshen around, Neier won't get into trouble."

Although the sword light just now was triggered by the meteorite sword technique and not the essence of the sword itself, it already gave Yuanhui some confidence. Even though the meteorite heavy sword was still in its infancy, in his hands, it could become a deadly weapon.

When using the meteorite sword technique, every sword strike would self-destruct after use. These regular swords were too fragile, and even high-quality swords could only withstand one or two uses of the meteorite sword technique.

However, holding the meteorite heavy sword in his hand, the forecast of the sword scars left by the meteorite sword technique was like a stroke of genius, giving the fledgling giant sword an edge, no damage after use, and giving off a feeling of being more than capable, accelerating the sword's formation.

It was truly amazing! Some high-level craftsmen who could forge high-grade spirit stones would find it difficult to carve this material, but to think that his meteorite sword technique could do that.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Yuanhui regained his calm demeanor on the surface, his messy long hair covering his eyes. With his cloak on, he once again became a recluse, and no one could tell that he was the wanted Yuanhui by the Imperial Princess!

In the outer periphery of the First Imperial Princess's palace in the dead of night.

The guards standing on either side of the gate were yawning lazily, looking fatigued. This was the interior of the palace, and it had been a long time since any outsiders had entered, so the guards here were half-asleep, propping themselves against the door pillars.

Creak—!

The side door slowly opened, and a simple and unadorned carriage slowly drove in through the side entrance.

The guard on the left gate pillar glanced over, yawned loudly, rubbing his drowsy eyes, and joked.

“Oh, it’s that person again... It's been a while since they last came. I wonder what they're up to this time?”

The guard on the right side gave a cold glance and cursed.

“Dog minions should act like dog minions. Don't talk too much. Be careful not to be overheard. Don't concern yourself with the affairs of the noble ones. The more you know, the more dangerous it is!”

“Do you have to say it like that? I just wanted to keep track of when that person came last time. Oi, why are you calling me by my nickname, didn't we agree not to use such insulting names anymore?”

The guard named Dog Minion immediately expressed his dissatisfaction and even extended his fist provocatively.

“There aren't many people around, does it hurt to show off a bit?”

“That's not allowed. You never accumulate good karma with your words. I'm doing this for your own good. No more disrespecting names in the future!”

Dog Minion was not pleased, acknowledging that his nickname was indeed not great, but with everyone calling him that, he had no choice but to make sure others used it less often, finding his own form of solace.

The guard who was giving him a lecture impatiently waved his hand.

“You've got the most issues, Dog Minion. I get it, I won’t call you that anymore. Happy now?”

While the two were chatting merrily, a swift figure silently crossed the courtyard wall nearby, disappeared with a swift swoosh under the cover of echoes.

Dog Minion's ears twitched, as if he had heard something just now. Looking in that direction, he found nothing unusual and shook his head, muttering to himself.

“Weird, did I just imagine that sound?”

“Oh, could you watch for a bit, I have a stomach ache and need to go to the bathroom quickly.”

At that moment, another guard clutched his stomach, as if he urgently needed to relieve himself, and then entrusted the task of watching the gate entirely to Dog Minion.

Unable to argue back, Dog Minion twitched a corner of his mouth, sighed, and said to himself while covering his head.

“Hurry back before the night patrol shows up.”

The guard, who had a grin on his face even uglier than crying, praised Dog Minion with a smile, “You're still a loyal one, Dog Minion.”

As he spoke, the guard ran towards the toilet inside the courtyard.

Inside the study room of the imperial palace.

Although it was midnight, the study room was brightly lit. The Ghost King was half-kneeling in front of a masked man in magnificent attire.

“Old Ghost, you have worked hard collecting food and herbs these days.”

The masked man spoke with a calm tone, carrying a hint of authority in his words as he looked at the ledgers in his hand.

“To share worries for the Immortal Emperor is a duty I must fulfill,” Ghost King replied in a low voice.

“No, it is to share worries for the Heavenly Demon Emperor. That is your mission,” the masked man shook his head, uttering a thought-provoking statement.

Ghost King's eyes lit up immediately, quickly altering his response.

“Yes, to share worries for the Xiao Clan is the mission I must complete!”

The masked man turned to look at Ghost King and waved his hand.

“Stand up, you are now also a great contributor. As long as in a while, when the Heavenly Demon Emperor returns, your efforts will be rewarded greatly. If I'm not mistaken, you will be directly promoted to one of the Four Chambers, becoming one of the few senior officials in my New Continent, enjoying abundant resources, and making rapid progress!”

Ghost King raised his head abruptly, and the excitement and excitement were seen in his eyes by the masked man.

The conversation just now also revealed the identity and status of this masked man - he was the Immortal Emperor Qiansui!

“However, the position in the Four Chambers is still too low. I want you to be a great follower by the side of the Heavenly Demon! Become the strongest warrior for the Heavenly Demon Emperor!”

The Immortal Emperor's suggestion made Ghost King's body tremble!

“I don't quite understand what the Emperor means...”

As Ghost King said this, the Immortal Emperor's gaze turned cold, but instantly lightened up upon hearing his next sentence.

“Nevertheless, I am willing to go through fire and water for the Emperor!”

“Ghost King, you were once a collateral descendant of the Xiwu Clan. Your relationship with the Wu Clan was not so close from a young age, yet being made a nanny for a little girl is truly demeaning for you. But you also know that in this outer gate, although your resources are not as abundant as the inner gate's, no one dares to appropriate what you rightfully deserve. You now have a stable foundation in the middle stage of the Overlord realm without boundaries. You are about to enter the late stage of the boundary-less, the peak.”

“What the Emperor says, um... I don't quite understand,” Ghost King hesitated.

“This is a key point. If you can break through to the Immortalization Realm when the Heavenly Demon Emperor returns, you can become a personal attendant to me, the Heavenly Demon Emperor. That way, my plan will be much easier to implement.”

The Immortal Emperor's words were indeed a fact. In the world of survival of the fittest, the eyes of the strong will never tolerate the survival of the weak!

Sent to this outer gate, under the pressure of suffering, Ghost King's strength has grown rapidly. In just fourteen years, he had made continuous breakthroughs and had now reached the middle stage of the boundary-less realm, which was not easy at all.

“This is the Blood Refining Sword. Take it. This sword is not ordinary. Even if you are a junior in the boundary-less realm, this sword will be enough to make you hard to find a match in the same realm.”

With that, the Immortal Emperor took out a blood-red long sword from his clothing and handed it to Ghost King.

Ghost King received the sword with excitement, feeling a surge of emotion. He knew that what he lacked most in his cultivation at the moment was a weapon that suited him!

Currently, he was the... uh, nanny of the Imperial Princess! But he was not lacking in resources, never having a shortage.

"Thank you, Immortal Emperor!" Ghost King thanked sincerely from the bottom of his heart.

At that moment, on the roof of the study, a figure descended, brisk and agile, lifting a brick and tile with the cover of echoes, quietly peered through the room; it was none other than Yuanhui.

"Hmph, Ghost King, I knew you weren't a good person!"

Dressed in black attire, without a mask, Yuanhui landed silently on top of the palace from a distance, then peered down from the rooftop, catching sight of Ghost King and the unfamiliar figure.

“But Master, won’t we be discovered like this?” Yuanhui asked nervously, not wanting to spend even an extra second in this crisis-ridden palace.

“Hehehe, how could the Emperor perceive us with just Immortal cultivation?”

“Wow, Master, you're quite impressive. By the way, are you already stronger than them?”

“Uh... no, it's just that my Echo doesn't carry Chi, so, apart from dogs, the Imperial City can't touch us, hahaha!!!”

“...”

At this moment, the two whispering individuals in the room were unaware that they were already under surveillance.
