The terrifying power of a Child of Fortune! (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)
Li Ling had promised her brother that she would steal something from the Imperial Palace to resurrect the Dragon Emperor.
Originally, Li Ling had no intention of helping. She had merely agreed casually to keep up appearances.
The problem was that her brother, Li Yang, had detained Chen Xuannan, leaving her no choice but to find a way to visit the Imperial Palace.
After all, Li Yang surely had informants stationed in the Imperial Capital. If she did nothing, Chen Xuannan would be executed.
Perhaps Li Yang had no idea what happened to those who offended a Child of Fortune.
Weighed down by her worries, Li Ling passed Xu Zifeng. They barely knew each other and could not be bothered to exchange greetings.
Li Ling had no special privileges, so her arrival still had to be announced before she could enter the Imperial Palace.
She did not dare seek out Li Chen. At most, she could visit her aunt, Li Xueying.
After receiving Li Xueying's permission, Li Ling followed a eunuch to the palace where Li Xueying lived.
Whether the food in the Heavenly Strategy Dynasty was better or not, Li Ling felt that her aunt looked fuller than when she had seen her in the Northern Court, and her bearing had grown increasingly graceful.
"Oh, little Ling. What brings you to see your aunt?"
Hearing her aunt ask, Li Ling naturally did not dare tell the truth. Instead, she said that she had recently encountered a bottleneck in her cultivation and hoped His Majesty would grant her some suitable items to improve her strength.
Only by continually growing stronger could she strive for the Heavenly Strategy Dynasty and ease His Majesty's burdens.
Ultimately, she still wanted to get into the Imperial Palace's Treasure Pavilion through legitimate means.
