“I didn’t contact you because I thought he could see me. If I talked to you, I thought he would have captured me. Later, he sealed your dantian, and I had no way to contact you!”
Xi Yue frowned, having a bad premonition in her heart.
This is the first time the spiritual pet in the void claimed that someone from the outside discovered them. Did Ji Mingyu find out about the Sumeru Void? That’s impossible, right?
Just as Xi Yue was occupied in her thoughts, the door of the bedroom was pushed open. Ji Mingyu walked in slowly with a chilling aura. His presence resembled an immortal.
However, as his eyes swept across the empty room, his expression immediately darkened.
“Zhu Que!”
Zhu Que appeared in the room like a phantom. She was about to ask her master what happened. When she saw the empty room, she immediately paled and said, “Master, forgive me!”
Ji Mingyu’s voice was cold. “Seal the Abyss Divine Palace. No one is allowed to enter or exit this place. After the matter is over, go to the punishment hall to receive 30 lashes yourself.”
“Also, no one is allowed to hurt her!”
“Yes!” Zhu Que breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly, “Thank you, master!”
The divine palace went from quiet to bustling in an instant, with everyone springing into action. Sturdy defensive arrays were activated and set in motion.
Throughout the divine palace, not a single person had a cultivation level lower than the Soul Splitting Stage, even if they were just a cleaning servant or a maid weaving silk fabric.
All the arrays were of 8th grade or above. Once the array attacks were activated, even the powerhouses of the Void Darkness Stage would be reduced to nothing.
Yet, all of the hassles were done to capture a girl, who was merely in the Gold Core Stage.
Before Ji Mingyu left the sleeping quarters, he glanced in the direction of the bed. That was the spot where Xi Yue sat previously.
That glance made Xi Yue’s heart skip a beat in the void.
Even though it was the same cold gaze as usual, Xi Yue felt as though he had somehow discovered something.
Even more so, those ink-black eyes seemed to penetrate through the membrane of the void, seeing her presence.
But soon, Ji Mingyu retrieved his gaze and vanished from the room.
Xi Yue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this must be her imagination.
She waited for a while longer, making sure no one else would come to search this place. When the void’s hiding time was almost up, she reappeared in the room.
As soon as Xi Yue got out of the room, she didn’t waste even a minute. Her figure swayed, and she darted out to escape.
However, her escape path wasn’t through the palace but on the roof of the palace. She didn’t even rely on her spiritual powers. Instead, she merely utilized fancy movement techniques to avoid being detected.
But for some reason, Xi Yue couldn’t shake the feeling that all along the way, there seemed to be a pair of eyes watching her from the shadows.
However, when she wanted to look for it, the feeling disappeared again.
A moment later, Xi Yue arrived before an array. Of course, such an array was not something she could crack.
“Little Red Bird, come out and take a look. Can you break this array?”
Little Red Bird jumped on her shoulder and whispered, “Xi Yue, are you sure you want to go out like this? Although I can break the array, its residual power remains. You’re only in the Gold Core Stage now. If you force your way out, you will get hurt.”
Xi Yue furrowed her brow and then spoke with a deep, resolute tone, “I must leave this place immediately.”
That man named Ji Mingyu is too terrifying. If he wanted to imprison or kill me, I would never be able to escape for the rest of my life. No matter what, I have to leave immediately.
