Living forever in the deep palace

Chapter 18: Rare Treasures

Wu Chen attacked, his body as quick as a startled wild goose, as fast as lightning, showing the majesty of a third-grade master.

In contrast, Su Chen looked dull and stupid, like a wooden fool. He stood there in a daze, as if he was frightened.

"hehe!"

"It seems I'm overthinking it."

"My Lord Black Envoy, I'm afraid you've fallen into the hands of other palace masters. You're only seventeen or eighteen years old, so how could you possibly have any strength? Even if you've been practicing since your mother's womb, you'd only be at the peak of the fifth rank..."

A hint of ridicule flashed across Wu Chen's eyes.

however.

next moment.

boom!

Under Su Chen's black robe, golden light flashed in an instant, his muscles were tied, and his bones and veins like steel and iron were faintly visible. The terrifying blood flame burned fiercely on Su Chen's body, turning into a punch to meet the enemy.

"The Six-foot-tall Golden Body Technique?"

"And he has reached the peak of the fourth rank?"

Wu Chen's eyes widened, full of disbelief.

This is a first-grade martial art, and the difficulty of practicing it is not comparable to those "Barbarian Bull Qi" in the Martial Arts Bureau. Without a hundred-year-old precious medicine, it would be difficult for Su Chen to even get started at his age.

But Su Chen not only succeeded in his cultivation, but also reached the peak of the fourth rank...

In other words.

If he had only started practicing the "Six-foot-tall Golden Body Technique" after taking it from the Black-robed Envoy, he would have achieved such results in less than half a year. This is more than just a natural talent, it is simply a demon!

Bang!

The two figures collided together.

The blood flames disappeared completely.

Su Chen flew back like a broken sack and crashed heavily into the attic on the first floor of the library.

The gap between the peak third grade and the peak fourth grade is really too big.

"A useless person in the library?"

"If people like you are considered useless, then what are we, who only reached the peak of the fourth rank at the age of thirty or so, and only reached the end of the third rank at the age of fifty or sixty, considered useless?"

"But that's where you stop."

"With such talent, yet you betrayed the Holy Church, I can't sleep or eat without killing you."

Wu Chen walked over with a sneer.

He was sure that Su Chen would die from this blow.

A peak fourth-grade cultivator would be as weak as an ant in front of an ordinary third-grade cultivator, not to mention a peak third-grade cultivator like him.

"A mantis trying to stop a chariot is like trying to stop a chariot, which is meaningless."

Wu Chen smiled contemptuously and looked around the library, looking for any traces.

Next.

We should search this library thoroughly; the body must be hidden there.

All the eunuchs in the palace knew that Eunuch Su rarely left the library once a year. The library happened to be located in a remote area, so where else could he hide?

"In the medicine field!"

Wu Chen's eyes lit up, and he could tell at a glance that the medicinal field was obviously slightly higher than the floor tiles.

dig!

Use a whisk as a shovel.

The罡气 dances wildly, digging deeper and deeper.

A body was dug up.

"Huang Yi? Or the Black Envoy?"

No!

Keep digging!

There is a corpse!

Not yet!

As he dug, Wu Chen was horrified. There were actually dozens of corpses hidden in this small library. How could this eunuch Su, so young, be so cruel and ruthless? How could he kill people without any hesitation?

Not long after.

In the courtyard, corpses were piled up like a hill, emitting a foul stench.

Wu Chen felt vaguely dizzy, but didn't take it to heart.

"found it!"

After the last two bodies were dug out.

Dust-free ecstasy.

A corpse, as black as ink, still exuded a corrosive stench even after half a year. As soon as Wu Chen's hand touched it, he felt a sharp pain. There was actually still some residual poison left on the corpse.

How can it be!

Even a third-grade poison cannot be so toxic.

Wu Chen became more and more frightened.

After calculating the time, I felt more and more urgent.

At this moment.

Emperor Jianwu must have finished talking with Zhang Gui, the director of the East Factory. Given Zhang Gui's close relationship with Su Chen, he would probably come to the library as soon as he left the Golden Palace.

"We have to hurry!"

Wu Chen grabbed Huang Yi's corpse, cut off the blood from his wrist, and muttered something, actually performing some secret search method.

Not long after.

boom!

A crimson flame rose from Huang Yi's corpse.

"Huang Yi actually succeeded?"

"hateful!"

"She took back our Holy Religion's secret treasure from the royal treasury. Such an unprecedented achievement was actually lost here..."

Wu Chen was very upset.

Just now.

A faint voice sounded behind him.

"Is this what you, Heiyuan, are looking for?"

"And it's all thanks to you."

"Otherwise, even if I searched the body that night, I wouldn't have been able to find it. Could it be hidden in the internal organs?"

boom!

Wu Chen's scalp felt numb, and every hair on his body stood up. A chill spread from top to bottom, enveloping his entire body.

Su Chen? !

He is not dead!

How can it be!

With that blow, not to mention him being a peak fourth-grade cultivator, even if there were ten or twenty peak fourth-grade cultivators, they would all be killed instantly by him.

How is he still alive?

"Bastard!"

"In that case, we will kill you again!"

Wu Chen roared, the internal energy surged, and he waved his whisk, ready to attack for the second time.

however.

The internal energy in his body disappeared as he moved it.

boom!

He collapsed to the ground powerlessly, and a palm pierced through his chest and grabbed the red flame in its hand.

How can it be?

poisoned.

when!

"The exotic flowers and plants in my yard are actually all poisonous. Each has its own unique characteristics. If you stay in my yard for more than one meal, the poison will immediately penetrate your heart veins..."

"So, I always live alone in the library and don't allow others to stay for long."

"You're so good! You just came here and destroyed all these flowers and plants. The toxicity exploded more than ten times."

"trouble!"

“It’s time to replant again.”

"Also, you dug up all the bodies, and I had to bury them again, and there was one extra."

Su Chen retracted his arm and played with the red fire bead in his hand, which revealed its true appearance. It was a round bead the size of an egg, and a small black snake could be vaguely seen coiled and sleeping inside.

What is this stuff?

Su Chen was very curious.

"Give me back... the Holy Religion's secret treasure..."

Wu Chen stared at Su Chen with eyes wide open, and found that except for the internal organs being shaken and a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, Su Chen was actually unharmed.

His face was as handsome as a jade, his eyes were like stars, his flesh was solid and his blood was surging, but his attack didn't even cause any serious injuries.

Is this still the peak of the fourth rank?

If you say that he is at the same level as him at the peak of the third rank, I'm afraid he would believe it.

"Actually, I'm seriously injured."

"If you don't believe me, try hitting me again."

Su Chen said.

"Die!" Wu Chen attacked with hatred, squeezing out his life force in exchange for this final blow.

Bang!

Su Chen fought back with his fists, his blood burning, but he could not withstand the third-grade attack filled with hatred.

He was knocked away.

He was bleeding from his mouth and nose, and his breathing was weak. He looked so miserable.

then.

next moment.

Wu Chen widened his eyes.

What did he see?

I saw something in Su Chen's body, which seemed to be air, moving around. The originally serious injury became much lighter in an instant, and then it moved around again, and it directly became a minor injury.

A handsome young man with a smiling face.

It should have been a beautiful scene, but in Wu Chen's eyes, it was an extremely terrifying scene.

"demon!"

"monster!"

"You...you are not human..."

Wu Chen covered his pierced chest and kept backing away.

"Oh."

"you caught me."

Bang.

With one punch, Su Chen blew his head off.

then.

Su Chen was familiar with the place and threw the dead second spy of Xuan into the medicine field, followed by the second and third bodies. Soon, the medicine field returned to its original state.

"Finally cleaned it up."

Su Chen didn't have time to wipe the sweat off his face.

In the courtyard.

A figure dressed in a fiery red dress with a straw ear hanging around her waist walked in.

"Why did you pull out all the flowers and plants?"

"Again?"

Su Chen glanced sideways.
