Chapter 394
Shangguan Ziling walked for a long time in the silent night with Okra and Holly.
The cold wind made their clothes rustle. Everything around them seemed so quiet, only the sound of their footsteps echoed.
Shangguan Ziling suddenly stopped and looked at the quiet night around her. She couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
She remembered her negligence, forgetting to ask her cousin where she lived during the day. Now, she had no idea where to go.
"Oh no, I don't know where my cousin lives." Shangguan Ziling murmured to herself, her voice full of regret and anxiety.
However, the Tan family is not located in a slum, so they are easy to find.
When Okra and Holly heard her words, they both stopped.
They looked at Shangguan Ziling with a frown on their face. "Master, don't worry. The Tan Mansion should be easy to find." Qiu Kui said.
Shangguan Ziling glanced at them and felt a little calmer.
"Let's split up. You two go find our eldest cousin's residence, and I'll go find King Lingxiao's mansion." Shangguan Ziling said.
"No, master." Okra and Holly objected in unison.
"Why not? I think it's great!" Shangguan Ziling said.
Qiu Kui explained, "Master, the Northern Kingdom's Ling Xiao King is extremely powerful, and the mansion must be heavily guarded. I don't trust you to go alone."
Dongqing also agreed, "Yes, Master, we can't let you take risks. Let's go together."
Shangguan Ziling couldn't help but feel touched when she heard their words. She knew that they really cared about her and didn't want her to take risks.
Shangguan Ziling took a deep breath, "Be obedient, I have a space, I will hide in it if there is danger. But you, be careful, go to the Tan Mansion, beat Tan Songqing up and warn him."
Okra and Holly looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.
They knew that Shangguan Ziling's orders could not be disobeyed, but they were also worried about her taking the risk of going to Lingxiao Palace alone. "Master, let's go together." Dongqing said again.
Shangguan Ziling shook her head, "No, you go to the Tan Mansion and hurry up. This is an order and you cannot disobey. We will gather here at dawn." Her tone was firm and unquestionable.
Qiu Kui and Dong Qing looked at her determined eyes and knew that she had made a decision. Although they were worried, they could only obey her orders. "Okay, Master, we will do as you say," Qiu Kui said.
Shangguan Ziling nodded and said, "Remember, be careful and don't get yourself hurt. We'll gather here before dawn." Her voice was full of worry and care.
"Yes, master." Qiu Kui and Dong Qing answered in unison.
Shangguan Ziling waved to them, leaped up, and her figure blended into the night.
Shangguan Ziling sped along the way, heading towards the most magnificent mansion. The cold wind was still biting, but she did not retreat at all.
The little fat boy in the space said: "Master, take it easy, you have a baby in your belly."
Shangguan Ziling stopped on the roof, her figure looked particularly lonely in the moonlight.
Shangguan Ziling took out a bottle of spiritual spring water from the space, opened the bottle cap, and drank it down. The cold spring water flowed down her throat into her stomach, making her feel cool and comfortable.
She lowered her head, touched her belly, and whispered, "Good baby." Her tone was full of tenderness and kindness, as if she was talking to a tiny life.
"Master, you are going to break into King Lingxiao's mansion alone, be careful!" said the little fat man in the space worriedly.
Shangguan Ziling smiled slightly, "I'll be careful." Her voice was full of determination and confidence.
Shangguan Ziling put away the porcelain bottle and quickly went to the roof opposite Lingxiao Palace.
She stood on the edge of the roof, overlooking the palace below. The imposing gate, the majestic stone lions, and the large characters "Prince Lingxiao's Palace" on the plaque.
She knew she had come to the right place.
Shangguan Ziling took a deep breath, and she moved, floating up like a ghost, and lightly crossed the wall of Lingxiao Palace.
She made almost no sound as she landed, her movements swift and graceful.
After entering the palace, she carefully avoided the patrolling guards and the secret guards. Her eyes were as sharp as an eagle, able to capture any slight movement.
Shangguan Ziling's footsteps were light and steady, as if she blended into the night, making it difficult to detect her presence.
The little fat man in the space reminded: "Master, be careful, there are many people in the dark."
Shangguan Ziling smiled slightly, "Yeah, I know." Her voice was low and firm, full of confidence.
She continued to move forward, taking every step carefully, not daring to be careless. Her heart was full of vigilance and alertness, always ready to deal with emergencies.
Along the way, Shangguan Ziling avoided many people in the dark. The Lingxiao Palace was indeed heavily guarded, and there were many people in the dark places of the palace.
Shangguan Ziling groped her way through the Lingxiao Palace. She was not familiar with the complex layout and felt a little depressed. The Lingxiao Palace was so large that it seemed like a maze, which made her feel a little confused.
Shangguan Ziling hid in the dark, carefully observing the surrounding environment.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard and she immediately hid in a shadow.
I saw a team of patrolling guards walking by, their steps were in unison, holding torches, illuminating everything around them.
Shangguan Ziling held her breath and dared not make any sound.
When the patrolling guards turned a corner, Shangguan Ziling quickly grabbed the last person, took the opportunity to press his acupoints, and dragged him into the dark.
Shangguan Ziling held the dagger against the guard's neck and said, "I ask, you answer. If you dare to scream, I'll let you know what it means to have your head moved!"
Shangguan Ziling finished speaking and untied the guard's mute point.
"Where does King Lingxiao live?" Shangguan Ziling asked coldly, her voice revealing an unquestionable majesty.
The guard turned pale with fright, and tremblingly revealed the location of King Ling Xiao's bedroom.
"Where is the warehouse in the palace?" Shangguan Ziling asked again, with a hint of threat in her voice.
The guard trembled as he answered the location of the warehouse.
