Fortunately, Mu Yunzheng's complicated emotions did not last too long. He took a deep breath, suppressed all his emotions in his heart, and flew towards the island in the air with Bai Yaoyao.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Star Palace?"
As the two men were about to get closer, they were blocked by a man wearing armor and holding a halberd.
Mu Yunzheng's face flashed with displeasure, but seeing the man's attire, he knew he was a Star Guard guarding the palace. He hadn't been home for many years, so it was normal for these juniors not to recognize him. So he suppressed his depression and said in a cold voice, "I am Mu Yunzheng!"
He used to be the Young Palace Master. Even though he had given up his inheritance rights to the Palace Master, these people still knew his name.
Unexpectedly, the Star Guard's expression suddenly changed when he heard what Mu Yunzheng said.
"Where did you come from, you scoundrel! How dare you pretend to be the Young Palace Master! Do you think that you can do whatever you want in my Xingchen Palace just because you are a senior in the Cave Void Stage?"
Star Guard Wei Lin was furious. Without him making any move, a streak of light shot out from his hand and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, the halberd in Wei Lin's hand drew a semicircle in the air and placed it in front of Mu Yunzheng and Bai Yaoyao, as if he would make them bleed to death if they dared to take a step forward.
Bai Yaoyao blinked and looked at Mu Yunzheng with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
Are you sure you are the young palace master? How come you can't even enter your own house?
Mu Yunzheng's face turned even darker when Bai Yaoyao looked at him.
He took out a token and threw it over, gritting his teeth and saying:
"Open your dog eyes and look! This is my identity token!"
Wei Lin took the token reflexively and looked down.
The token was shiny black, with six large characters "Xingchen Palace, Mu Yunzheng" written in a flamboyant style on the front, and seven bright and shining stars on the back.
Wei Lin twisted his thumb on it, and the star immediately emitted bright starlight, which matched the star guard token on his waist and the stars surrounding the entire island.
The token is real!
Only the token made of the star sand unique to their palace would have such a reaction!
Wei Lin's face turned pale, and the hand holding the token began to tremble slightly.
How can it be? !
The Young Palace Master had clearly died a thousand years ago!
A grand funeral was held for him in the palace...
Seeing the Star Guard in front of him holding the token without saying a word, Mu Yunzheng's brows were furrowed into a shape of a "川" (川) character.
Why do the current Star Guards seem to be not very smart...
"Here is the token, we can go in now!"
After Mu Yunzheng finished speaking, without waiting for Wei Lin to react, she waved her hand to call back the token in his hand and walked inside with Bai Yaoyao.
Wei Lin hesitated for a while, neither raising nor lowering the halberd in his hand...
At this moment, several streaks of light flashed across the island.
In a flash, dozens of Star Guards dressed like Wei Lin stood in front of Mu Yunzheng and Bai Yaoyao with long spears in hand.
Mu Yunzheng frowned and was about to scold him.
Then another stream of light came slowly, pushed through the crowd, and staggered to the center.
The man had a full beard, his eyes were half closed and he was yawning, looking like he was half drunk and half awake.
"Damn! Who is it that chooses to break into the palace when I'm on duty? You're disturbing my sweet dreams!"
"Yun Qi?!"
"Why are you calling your grandpa?!"
"Whose grandpa are you?!"
Mu Yunzheng looked at his former personal guard with gritted teeth!
"In broad daylight, disheveled, and reeking of alcohol! Is this how you do your duty?!"
"Huh? This sound sounds familiar! Hiccup!"
Yunqi burped and raised his hand to rub his drunken eyes.
The scene before my eyes became clearer.
That figure is so familiar...
Well……
A bit like his short-lived young master.
"Yunqi!" Mu Yunzheng was so angry that she laughed when she saw him staring at her in a daze.
"How much horse piss have you swallowed! Can't you even recognize your own master?!"
Yunqi: Hmm...the sound is similar!
"Snapped!"
Mu Yunzheng couldn't bear it any longer, so she condensed a water ball and threw it at his face.
The water ball exploded and flowed down along the bearded face.
Yunqi sobered up completely with a start.
Before the anger in his eyes could burst out, he could see clearly the person standing in front of him.
"Young Palace Master?!"
Yunqi's eyes widened in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Hmm! It seems that you are not completely drunk yet! You still recognize people!" Mu Yunzheng glared at him unhappily, "I will settle the score with you later! I have something important to discuss with the Great Elder! Get your people out of the way!"
"Burp!" Yunqi burped loudly, as if waking up from a dream, and suddenly started crying loudly.
"Young Palace Master! Woo! I knew you were not dead!!"
Bai Yaoyao stared with wide eyes at the scene in front of her which was like a big drama.
This is the number one palace in the world that once ruled the Xuanji Immortal Realm? !
Seeing is believing! Seeing is believing!
Mu Yunzheng's face turned dark, and the other Star Guards looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Shut up!" Yunqi stopped sobbing until Mu Yunzheng could no longer bear it and shouted.
"Take me to see the Great Elder! I have something important to discuss!"
Yunqi burped, "Young Palace Master, the Great Elder passed away a long time ago!"
Mu Yunzheng turned around abruptly, "What did you say?!"
……
Mu Yunzheng was hurriedly taken away by Yunqi, and he only ordered people to take Bai Yaoyao to his former residence to settle down.
After the guide left, Bai Yaoyao stared at the deserted and dilapidated courtyard.
This cheap master's situation seems to be a bit bad.
According to Mu Yunzheng, after Shi Yao disappeared ten thousand years ago, he had been looking for her outside and rarely returned to the palace.
Unexpectedly, when he came back this time, he found out that he had been a "dead man" a thousand years ago!
Not only that, the Great Elder who originally guarded the mountain gate on behalf of Mu Yunzheng also died, and now the person in power has been replaced by the Second Elder...
Bai Yaoyao suddenly thought of the question that Mu Yunzheng had been wondering about on the way.
The note he sent back never received a reply.
There was also the teleportation array that inexplicably malfunctioned on the road, and the probing and evasive look of the person who had just led the way.
Bai Yaoyao frowned, thinking conspiratorially, could it be that she had somehow gotten involved in some sect power struggle?
Can she still get the secret method of repairing her Nascent Soul that Mu Yunzheng promised to give her?
Just when Bai Yaoyao was worried about her situation.
In the main hall of the Xingchen Palace, Mu Yunzheng covered his chest with a dagger and looked with a grim face at the old man in front of him who had been smiling and feeling lucky that he was not dead and welcoming him back just a moment ago, but stabbed him cleanly in the next second.
"Du Yu! You..."
Before she could finish her words, Mu Yunzheng tilted her head and fainted completely...
In the cold and quiet hall, the second elder, now the acting palace master Du Yu, looked down at Mu Yunzheng and murmured in a low voice.
"Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng, I watched you grow up! I don't want to kill you unless it's absolutely necessary!
You said you could just stay out there and be a devoted lover! Why did you have to come back to die? "
