The Other Party's Plan

Soon, Su Zhan saw the Miao Miao Palace. One of the people there quickened his pace and went back, seemingly to inform the Palace Lord in advance.

As expected, Su Zhan was arranged to wait in a side hall for a while before someone took him to see the Palace Lord.

This was the first time Su Zhan had met the other person, and the other person's eyes were scrutinizing him.

This was clearly the first time they had seen Gu Feng's face; it wasn't the other party who had met with Gu Feng before.

Su Zhan had also considered this point. After all, it was just about Refining some Mask; it wasn't necessary for the Palace Lord to personally meet with Gu Feng.

"Gu Feng pays his respects to the Palace Lord."

Su Zhan spoke up.

Hun Tianlong also lowered his head slightly.

The Palace Lord had already learned of the other party's plan from his subordinates, and he found it to make some sense. As long as Su Zhan into the trap, he could eliminate Su Zhan.

"Your idea sounds good."

"Just tell me what you want."

The Palace Lord looked at Su Zhan and spoke.

Su Zhan imitated Gu Feng's trembling manner and spoke.

"I don't want anything else, I only ask to be able to Artifact Refining for the Palace Lord in the future, that would already be an immense favor."

He knew that the other party must be worried about him leaving.

Since that's the case, he took the initiative to suggest staying here, which would make the Palace Lord feel more at ease with him.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the Palace Lord's gaze softened somewhat.

But it was still cold, and tinged with contempt.

Clearly, the Palace Lord looked down on such a lowly being before him.

"Ha, you're quite pragmatic after all."

"Alright, I'll give you this chance."

"Only if you can lure Su Zhan into my trap."

Su Zhan immediately expressed his opinion.

"Of course, Palace Lord Trap, once you've made the preparations, I will do my best."

The Palace Lord was satisfied with his attitude and nodded.

"Very good. Someone, take them to rest."

As soon as these words were spoken, someone stepped forward to lead the way for Su Zhan and his group.

Su Zhan thanked him and followed him away.

Soon, he and Hun Tianlong were led to a small side hall.

As soon as they went inside, the outer door closed, and there were no footsteps outside, so it was clear that the person hadn't left.

It was obvious that they were being watched. The Palace Lord didn't completely trust them, so naturally he wouldn't let them wander around the Miao Miao Palace. It was normal for someone to be watching them.

Hun Tianlong looked at Su Zhan and was about to speak when Su Zhan spoke first.

"Don't be picky, I haven't even started picking."

We're lucky to be alive right now.

"Fortunately, the Palace Lord gave us a chance, otherwise we would have perished long ago."

"Being able to help with Artifact Refining at the Miao Miao Palace in the future would already be a very good career path for us."

"Sigh, I shouldn't Refining those Mask. Oh well, it's no use talking about it now."

Upon hearing this, Hun Tianlong realized that he couldn't just say whatever he wanted right now; Su Zhan was reminding him.

He immediately responded in a cooperative manner.

"I know, but this place is too small."

"Sigh, we still need to get rid of Su Zhan as soon as possible, otherwise we don't know how long we'll have to stay here. I really can't take it anymore."

Su Zhan remained silent, sighed, and sat down to the side, his face full of worry.

At the same time, the screen directly opposite them projected their movements and sounds onto another identical screen without alteration.

Sitting in front of the screen was the Palace Lord they had met not long ago.

The Palace Lord naturally wouldn't completely trust them, and would inevitably have to use some methods to determine whether they truly wanted to help. If they did, then they were quite clever.

"Since they know that helping me is the best option, that's all the better."
