"High Priest Wusi and Yan Wei weren't even the most prominent people among them. That showed how seriously the imperial family took this operation."
They were the mantis stalking the cicada!
"They're about to make their move. Let's go in and have a look."
Li Tianming was much stronger now, and with skill came courage. Even if he was discovered, he wasn't afraid of being killed. He entered his void state and began working through the barrier toward its core!
Inside was the very place where the retired emperor washed his hair with Origin Soul Spring!
Before Li Tianming had even entered, he heard quite a few people talking inside.
He did not pass directly through the sealing barrier. Instead, he looked inward from within it. From there, he could see everyone inside clearly.
They were all in the Guan Zizai Realm, so Li Tianming entered it too.
He swept his Heaven-Stealing Eye across the interior. The first person he spotted was the retired emperor, hunched and covered in black spots, looking like a dried corpse. He was terribly old, yet his eyes burned with vicious intensity. This was a man who could not take life and death lightly, and who cared even more about his dignity.
Besides him were Yan Wei and High Priest Wusi, the two people from outside the imperial family.
Judging by their attire, everyone else seemed to be from the Holy Blood Clan's inner circle!
Among them stood a woman in a white dress. She was tall and elegant, her face so pure and exalted that she looked sacred. Yet the figure beneath her dress was breathtakingly voluptuous, rivaling An Ning's. She had the air of a saintly seductress.
She also looked to be around Wei Wenlan's age, which lent her an even richer allure.
