Countless gazes were fixed on the location of Duke Zhen's Mansion at this moment.
Sounds of astonishment that seemed to pierce the sky were unceasing.
Many powerful beings were shocked by the aura emanating from Cheng Guang's bedroom within Duke Zhen's Mansion.
Eyes widened, breathing nearly halted.
Under the watchful eyes of many.
Above Duke Zhen's Mansion, waves of vast aura, like ripples on water, spread out in all directions.
A natural phenomenon, where both the Immortal Buddha and Sky-Men arrived simultaneously.
Inside Duke Zhen's Mansion.
Cheng Zhihai walked out of the courtyard, his face full of shock as he looked towards Cheng Guang's location.
He had not expected that at this time, just after his return to Duke Zhen's Mansion, before he could calm his emotions from escaping the Secret Realm, Cheng Guang would cause such a commotion.
"What kind of aura is this?"
"It seems like that of a Sky-Man, yet not quite, as if it's beyond a Sky-Man?"
Cheng Zhihai's gaze stayed on the direction of Cheng Guang's bedroom as he muttered to himself.
At his side, Wu Yuemei also stepped out from the courtyard, slightly lifting her gaze to the extraordinary scene above Cheng Guang's bedroom, her red lips parting in surprise, her gentle face showing a touch of peculiar color.
"What has caused Guanger to make such a big commotion?"
"Has his cultivation broken through?"
Cheng Zhihai shook his head with a bitter smile, "I don't know either."
As he spoke, Cheng Zhihai's tone paused slightly, then with a hint of weirdness he said, "A breakthrough in cultivation wouldn't cause such a big commotion."
"Perhaps it's the disturbance caused by some Different Treasure."
"Different Treasure?"
Wu Yuemei, puzzled, frowned lightly.
Seeing Wu Yuemei looking so, Cheng Zhihai wasn't surprised and silently smiled, "I also don't know if it is."
"However, the commotion Guanger has caused, I fear not even some Sky-Men could manage."
"The Capital city, and indeed the entire Great Zhou, the whole world, I wonder how many people felt this aura and turned their eyes toward our Duke Zhen's Mansion."
"The following period of time, I estimate the Capital city won't be peaceful."
Cheng Zhihai's words entered Wu Yuemei's ears but did not cause much change in her expression.
She just nodded slightly and then said, "The Capital city is, after all, the Capital city of Great Zhou—it won't run into any trouble."
"For the next while, let Guanger stay within the mansion, he should not go anywhere."
"Causing such a huge commotion without reason, who knows how many interested parties will cast their gaze upon him."
Cheng Zhihai's face bore a strange color.
Wu Yuemei didn't know at this time, that Emperor Zhou and a group of Sky-Men were trapped in the Secret Realm, unable to escape, and might have completely perished within the Secret Realm.
With the Emperor not in the Capital city.
The current Great Zhou Capital might not be considered safe.
Without a Sky-Man to quell unrest, relying solely on this Bureau of the Lamp to suppress the chaos stirred by powerful beings from all over the world wasn't going to be an easy task.
Cheng Zhihai sighed and didn't plan to discuss this matter with Wu Yuemei just yet.
Although Wu Yuemei had had some unhappy dealings with Emperor Zhou over Cheng Guang's affairs, after all, the two were siblings and quite close.
If Emperor Zhou was indeed dead, it would be difficult for Wu Yuemei to avoid feeling heartbroken.
With so many sudden events occurring one after another, even Cheng Zhihai himself was finding it tough to handle, let alone Wu Yuemei.
Mulling over these thoughts, Cheng Zhihai rubbed his forehead with a troubled expression, wondering if there were any medicinal pills that could heal Wu Yuemei's injuries.
If Wu Yuemei's body could be healed,
she would then be able to cultivate in the future, and her body wouldn't be so fatigued by emotional fluctuations anymore.
......
Elsewhere.
Great Zhou Imperial Palace.
Crown Prince East Palace.
Wu Ling sat in a secret chamber, dressed in a wispy, smoky white skirt, golden light shimmering at her brow, inhaling and exhaling slowly, mist swirling around her.
The surrounding mist enshrouded her, making her seem like a fairy in the clouds, unlike a mortal.
If one looked closely at these mists, they would realize they were not actually mists but rather extremely dense Qi.
While visualizing the Proving Dao Map, Wu Ling breathed in the Qi, strengthening her Primordial Spirit.
Suddenly,
Wu Ling felt a sensation and ceased cultivating, rising to her feet and walking towards the door of the chamber.
She pushed open the door of the secret chamber.
The palace maid outside hurriedly bowed and greeted her:
"Your Highness."
Wu Ling did not acknowledge the palace maid by her side but stared blankly toward the palace gates, in the direction of Duke Zhen's Mansion.
Her exquisitely beautiful eyes seemed slightly reddened as if she had just cried.
"This, is this the Princely Heir's aura??"
Wu Ling murmured to herself, seemingly in disbelief.
The Emperor had said that Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke's Heir, was dead.
Words spoken by Emperor Zhou Wu Shang were unquestionable.
Now the phenomenon above Duke Zhen's Mansion, revealing the aura of Cheng Guang, didn't seem like a deception either.
In a moment, Wu Ling became confused, turning to the palace maid by her side and asked, "Did the Town-Nation Duke's Heir return to the mansion today?"
The palace maid quickly explained, "Yes, Your Highness. The Town-Nation Duke's Heir came back a few days ago, saying he had not been assassinated. It was just a misunderstanding."
"A misunderstanding..." Wu Ling murmured.
The palace maid beside Wu Ling seemed to recall something and said, "It's just that after the Town-Nation Duke's Heir returned to the mansion, a Secret Realm appeared near the Capital, so he did not stay for long or have his grand wedding. Instead, he left the Capital city right away and entered the Secret Realm." Your journey continues on empire
"That's why Your Highness was unaware of the Princely Heir's news."
"Thinking about it now, the Princely Heir might have just come out of the Secret Realm."
