Chapter 207 Entering the Palace
The carriage drove across the long bridge and stopped in front of Mingde Gate.

A voice came from outside the curtain: "We have arrived at Mingde Gate. Please get off the car and walk."

Du Xinghe lifted the curtain and got off the car. The majestic palace gate towered into the clouds, and the palace walls were engraved with countless auspicious beast patterns. The eyes of each auspicious beast seemed to be staring at the visitor, constantly examining the guest who was about to enter the palace.

The moment she walked through the door, she felt a sense of stagnation coming towards her, as if the imperial city itself had come alive, checking whether she had anything that could harm the Xuan Kingdom, while also cutting off her connection with the outside world.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, Du Xinghe's ability to perceive the outside world reached another level.

It had been a long time since she had felt her five senses blocked.

At the same time, Du Xinghe also called out to the system in his heart: [I have entered the palace, can the system help me? ]

Fortunately, the palace fighting system was not affected by the Xuan Kingdom barrier and could still respond to her normally:

[The host's experience converted into words is already 800,000 words. Has he just entered the palace? 】

Du Xinghe changed his words: [That means returning to the palace. ]

There is not much difference in anything related to imperial power.

It's just going from one palace to another.

The system was silent for a moment: [It has been detected that the host is in Yucheng. What help does the host need? ]

[Not yet, just checking if you are still okay here. ]

Du Xinghe raised his head and narrowed his eyes slightly:
[You call this a city? ]

——After passing through the palace wall, what appeared before her was a tall tower with no top in sight.

The eunuch who led the way told her not to look around and just to follow him closely.

The whole world was silent, with only the bright moonlight falling on the jade tiles, refracting a warm glow and reflecting her profile.

Du Xinghe was holding the jade token lent by the Ji family. At this time, a lantern fish was emitting a hazy light in the night. Behind the lantern fish was a short palace servant. He walked in front of her and stopped: "Please stay. The Second Prince wants to see the young lady. Please come with us."

The eunuch leading the way showed a fearful look on his face: "The young lady needs to go to Yunde Hall. Wait until she meets His Majesty before she goes to pay her respects to the Second Prince."

"So, she went to ask for an audience with His Majesty, not to be summoned by His Majesty," the short palace servant heard the loophole in his words and said slowly, "We are also under the orders of the Second Prince. Eunuch, please don't embarrass me. No one can afford to delay the Second Prince's business."

The eunuch leading the way gritted his teeth and said, "The Imperial Concubine is also waiting for the girl."

"Then I'll have to ask the Imperial Concubine to wait for a while."

The short palace maid smirked.

The eunuch leading the way had no choice but to turn around and tell Du Xinghe: "Miss, I will go find the queen right away, you... take care."

Since Du Xinghe had chosen to go deep into the dragon's den and the tiger's lair, she naturally had the courage to gamble her life here. Facing the gaze of the eunuch who was leading the way, who was looking at her as if she was about to die, she turned to the short palace servant and said, "Lead the way."

After achieving the purpose of the mission, the short palace maid said no more and just asked her to follow.

The interior of the jade tower was like a miniature city. Every flower corridor and door could lead to different floors. No outsider who had just arrived would avoid getting lost. Du Xinghe soon realized that this was a folded-up imperial palace, and what lay behind it was probably an extremely powerful and terrifying principle of space magic.

While she was observing her surroundings with interest, the short palace maid asked her to wait there for a while, and she was now in an empty yard.

There was a deep pool behind Du Xinghe. The giant bony fish monster under the water smelled the breath of a living person and swam greedily towards the water surface. A huge black shadow flashed by, which was enough to make people with gigantic fear feel cold.

"Where was this sent to me? Is it still in the palace?"

Du Xinghe paced back and forth, muttering to himself, like a traveler who had strayed into danger without realizing it.

At the moment when the giant bone fish monster jumped out of the water, Du Xinghe raised her right hand, formed a seal in the air and hit the water. The water flow gathered from her fingertips like an arrow, and went straight back to pierce the huge black shadow that jumped out of the water.

Just before it died, the tourist turned around and looked at it: "Is your master the Second Prince? Can you take me to see it? ... Is it going to break? Alas, I didn't hit it hard enough, you just try to hold on."

Before the giant bone fish monster was about to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation, a cold spiritual power penetrated into its body.

The wound that was originally pierced suddenly expanded several times and grew dozens of tumors, strangling its last bit of life and causing it to die in extreme pain.

The fish monster fell into the deep pool, splashing countless water.

The last words it heard in its life were the female cultivator sighing and saying, "Alas, my healing spells are really terrible."

thump—

The dead fish floated on the water, drifting slowly.

Du Xinghe casually cast a sound amplification spell: "Is anyone there? I'm coming."

No one responded to her.

Du Xinghe thought: "How about I fly up to a high altitude on my sword and take a look?" Since his spiritual sense couldn't be extended outward, he could only observe with his naked eyes.

The sword spirit refused: "You are not allowed to fly in the palace."

Du Xinghe: "No one saw it. I'll come down if I see anyone."

The sword spirit explained again that it was the limitation of the barrier here.

She had no choice but to give up.

"Judging from the expression of the eunuch who led the way, the Second Prince is not someone who is easy to deal with. He probably has bad intentions." Du Xinghe and Jian Ling said.

If it is true as she said, then there will be a fierce battle to be fought.

She moved her hands.

Not to mention cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, even Golden Core Servant cultivators rarely use cold weapons in close combat, as it is too degrading.

Du Xinghe held the hilt of the sword at this time. First of all, she liked fencing...

Second, wounds caused only by swords are easy to heal.

After all, we are in the territory of the Xuan Dynasty. If we get into a fight and fight to the death, it will be a problem whether we win or lose.

At this moment, a shadow rushed out from the magnificent palace——

"duel!"

The sword shadow came with great force.

Du Xinghe turned around, swung his sword in the air, and looked surprised.

It's not that her swordsmanship is poor.

The man who attacked her and wanted to duel with her was too short. Her sword slashed at him from a height of 1.5 meters, but he was unharmed, with even the hair on his head intact.

"Look at the sword, look at the sword, look at the sword!"

The boy raised his small wooden sword and challenged the Yuanying master.

The sword spirit felt that this wooden sword had never thought in its life that there would come a day when it would chop down a Nascent Soul Great Being.

Out of business.

"Well."

The small wooden sword hit her again and again.

If a person has a health bar, you will definitely see the HP-1 prompt popping up on her health bar.

If she sneezed harder, the impact on her qi and blood would be more painful than if she were sneezed by someone.

It can even be said that the energy and blood she recovered between her breaths far exceeded the injuries she suffered, as if she was fighting a villain of a higher level, but the amount of blood she recovered was not enough.

After letting the little boy chop for a while, Du Xinghe asked him:
"I see the sword, who are you?"

The little boy raised his head and looked at her in shock: "Why haven't you been chopped to death by me yet?"

"Are you going to kill me?"

Du Xinghe imagined the scene and curved his thin lips slightly:

"You are very courageous. I wonder how I have offended you?"

"The palace people said that you are the top expert on the bounty list. I want to spar with you and defeat you."

The little boy puffed up his cheeks.

He had a pampered fair little face, but his eyes were too clear, with a kind of innocence that had not been polluted by knowledge. Du Xinghe could see that the boy had obvious intellectual defects. He was more childish and clumsy than his peers, and did not know how to control his desires.

"Your Highness is of noble status. To determine the winner, there is more than just a fight between you and me."

"Why don't you call the palace servant who instigated you to duel with me? Let's swing our swords at him together and see who can inflict more damage. The winner will be the one who wins."

Du Xinghe said with a smile.

Perhaps because he felt that swinging the sword at her was tiring and had no effect, the Second Prince became a little discouraged and actually accepted her suggestion.

He turned around and shouted:
"Call Chen Fan over! Didn't he say that as long as I defeat Du Xinghe, my father will come to see me? Now is a good opportunity."
