Chapter 250: Chapter 250 Millennial Living Corpse_1

Seeing that the Tang Knife Soldier Corpses were quickly surrounding us, I hurriedly walked in front of Wu Qiyi and the other two ladies and said to them, "I’ll open a gap for you, get away quickly!"

No sooner had I spoken than the General Figurines suddenly stepped forward, knelt on one knee, thrust the Tang Dynasty Treasure Sword into the tiles, and saluted with a fist!

"Clang!"

The thirty or so Tang Knife Soldier Corpses behind the General Figurine knelt on one knee in unison, saluting with their fists!

What... what was going on?

Wu Qiyi and I exchanged a glance and we couldn’t help but feel a strange connection.

"You’re probably the one the handsome General Figurines are kneeling to, right?" Nong Xuele quickly started with her naive speculation. "Your blood was able to open the stone gate before, right? I think you must have some connection to Qian Ling Mausoleum. Maybe you’re even a descendant of the Li Tang lineage."

She had astonishingly guessed right.

I smiled, turned around, walked up to the General Figurine, and returned the salute with a fist.

The General Figurine couldn’t seem to speak, but after he and the Tang Knife Soldier Corpses behind him got up, they made a "please" gesture towards me.

"Is he inviting us?" asked Nong Xuele.

Dong Fangxiao turned to look in the direction indicated by the General Figurine and couldn’t help but say, "Is it actually inviting us into the Imperial Palace?"

Wu Qiyi said to me in a low voice, "We should hurry. The voice that’s calling me is getting more urgent."

"Mhm."

I nodded my head, ready to step forward when Dong Fangxiao suddenly grabbed my hand and said to me, "Thank you."

"Thank what? In that situation, I had to take action."

Seeing that I was laughing it off, Dong Fangxiao said with a serious face, "I never like owing people favors. You remember this, I will definitely repay this favor to you as soon as possible!"

I scratched my head and said with a laugh, "Well, once we get out of here, you can repay me by treating me to a hotpot meal."

I didn’t really care about such trifles, and led the three ladies, escorted by more than a thousand-year-old soldier corpses, toward the Underground Palace.

"Boom!"

A loud noise came from not far behind us, and the General immediately took up his Tang Knife, leading over thirty Tang Knife Soldier Corpses towards the source of the sound!

"Come on, let’s follow!"

With the soldier corpses clearing the path, we naturally had a lot more courage.

By the time we arrived, the battle had already ended. Two huge monster skeletons were left on the ground, along with the bodies of two humans, and a large number of broken soldier corpse pieces.

"What a waste of heavenly treasures! Each of these soldier corpses is an invaluable treasure. Those People of Yamato died, so be it, but they even destroyed our precious treasures," Nong Xuele said indignantly, "If there were Soul Reapers around, they should definitely drag the souls of these People of Yamato to Yan Wang for trial, so they will suffer for a few hundred years, no, a few thousand years, in the Eighteen Levels of Hell!"

Under the scrutiny of my Sen Luo Eye, I discovered that these two dead Yamato individuals had no souls; their bodies appeared to be only shells, as if missing a soul entirely.

"Mu Yun, let’s hurry into the Imperial Palace."

Hearing the urgency in Wu Qiyi’s voice, I quickly nodded, turning towards the Imperial Palace.

Just like the General Figurine, the nearby soldier corpses neatly knelt on one knee and saluted in military fashion upon seeing Wu Qiyi and me.

I didn’t have the time to pay attention to them and led the three ladies as we ran towards the Imperial Palace.

As the vermillion doors of the Imperial Palace grew closer, I suddenly felt the palpitations in my heart growing stronger.

Looking at the palace ahead, I couldn’t help thinking to myself, "Could it be that ahead lies the final resting place of the Empress and Emperor Gaozong of Tang?"

The doors of the Imperial Palace slowly opened as we approached, as if they knew we were coming. To both sides of the main path of the Palace’s Main Hall stood rows of soldier corpses, holding Precious Swords and watching us expressionlessly as we approached.

Upon entering the Imperial Palace, you found it vast and suddenly lost your objective.

"The voice came from that direction."

Wu Qiyi’s brows furrowed tighter, as she pointed towards the Palace’s Main Hall.

"Er Ya, are you alright?" you asked with concerned expression looking at Wu Qiyi.

She shook her head slightly, "I’m fine, it’s just that the voice keeps calling me, giving me a bit of a headache."

"Then let’s move on, and keep the formation."

"Senior, you’re being too cautious. The people outside were so respectful to us, this place should be a blessing rather than a danger to you."

You turned your head to glance at Nong Xuele, saying with a grave face, "Better safe than sorry. In this world, there’s no such thing as absolute certainty!"

Seeing you so serious, Nong Xuele stuck out her tongue and obediently followed behind Wu Qiyi.

The doors to the Palace’s Main Hall were already open, and you led the way in.

The main hall was vast, wide, and lofty.

Standing at the threshold, one naturally felt dwarfed by the grandeur and breadth of the hall ahead.

"Wow, this place is much bigger than the grand halls in the movie studios!"

Nong Xuele couldn’t help exclaiming at the majesty of the main hall.

"Wait." All of a sudden, you raised your right hand, and the four of you came to a halt. At that moment, you shone your Wolf’s eye flashlight straight ahead and were shocked to see a figure standing about twenty meters away.

"Huh? There’s someone there."

Your pupils instantly constricted, for through the Sen Luo Eye, you noticed that the figure ahead was not human!

Or rather, it was a living corpse!

"Let’s walk over slowly."

As you took about ten steps forward, the vast main hall suddenly brightened!

The sudden light illuminated the entire hall in resplendent gold and jade, and you also clearly saw the living corpse before you!

"Wow, how beautiful!"

When you saw the living corpse dressed in Tang dynasty costume, Nong Xuele couldn’t help but marvel.

Both you and Wu Qiyi exclaimed in unison, "Xi Yu!?"

You never expected to see a living corpse that looked exactly like Xi Yu a hundred meters underground!

The gorgeously dressed, stunning "Xi Yu" saluted gracefully to you and Wu Qiyi and began speaking, "I have been awaiting your arrival for a long time."

Her words were heavy with the weight of ages, as if a century had passed with every syllable!

"She can actually speak!"

Nong Xuele and Dong Fangxiao involuntarily stepped back, with Dong Fangxiao pointing the muzzle of her gun at "Xi Yu".

"Wait, hold your fire."

You quickly stalled Dong Fangxiao, then took a few steps forward and bowed to "Xi Yu", saying, "Then, I am Li Muyun, may I have the honor of knowing your distinguished name?"

The "Xi Yu" smiled faintly and returned the salute, "It is a great fortune to meet Your Majesty here after a thousand years. I have heard about your extraordinary deeds more than once from the Heavenly Empress. Seeing you today, it is just as the Heavenly Empress described, Your Majesty truly is a modest gentleman."
