Chapter 390 Infiltrating the Royal Palace

*Bang!*

Dust rose in the air as the explosion from the attack caught the attention of the onlookers.

"What's happening? Did someone attack the Royal Palace?" Seeing the guards suddenly stab a place where no one was standing, everyone around the castle panicked.

"Don't be absurd, no one is that much of a fool to do something like that."

"But..."

"Even if nothing is happening, we should stay away from this place. Who knows what's happening here." People started to run away from the palace, seeking a safe place.

"Sir, what was that?" Not just the people around the castle, but the guards who made their move were puzzled themselves.

As the dust settled, they realized that no one was standing on the spot they had just attacked.

"I swear that I heard someone stepping there." One by one, the guards nodded solemnly.

"It's not just you alone." A stern-looking man came forward and pointed at the small footprint on the ground. "Tell the guards that someone infiltrated the castle. Tell them only to find this person and not to engage. Someone else will deal with him."

"Someone else?" The soldiers were shocked to hear the words of their superiors.

"Why do you think we never noticed that person until the moment the sound came?" The superior guard asked the other guards present around him. His question made the guards think about what he had just said.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Maybe he messed up?"

"Like he slipped while walking and made a sound?"

"Maybe it was his movement technique that made that noise." Everyone randomly threw in their guesses without even thinking, just hoping that it would please their superior. It wasn't until one of the guards, who had been thinking from the start, spoke up.

"Good work, you can return to your post at the front gate." The man named Black Sword waved his hand without any interest. He even yawned while speaking his words.

The man saluted without saying anything and accepted orders from his superior. As he walked past the lazy captain, he could see the man waving at him.

*Splash!* Stay tuned for updates on empire

"Cough! Arghh!" Just as the man took a step forward in the direction of the main gate, he suddenly stopped and coughed a mouthful of blood.

Looking down, he saw a black blade piercing his stomach. Looking over his shoulder, his eyes met with the same lazy eyes, but this time there was a sharp glint in them. "Why... captain..."

At the same time,

Deep inside the Royal Palace, in one of the several rooms, a meeting was being held. The people attending this meeting could be counted on a single hand.

Seated on the main seat in the room was the emperor of the Feng Empire, Wuhan. He looked down at the three subordinates standing in front of him.

Two of them were dressed in the robes of scholars while the last one was dressed in the robes of an official. He also had the elegance and the demeanor of a wise person.

"Greetings, Emperor! Long Live the Emperor!" They all greeted Wuhan with their hands cupped.

"You all know why you are here, I assume?" Wuhan nodded before asking.

The minister was the first one to nod his head, followed by the two scholars.

"Forgive my insolence, but Your Majesty, why do we have to do this without the members of the council?" The head minister came forward and bowed deeply to Wuhan before asking.

"You know why. I don't trust them. That's why I asked you to bring your most trusted subordinates." The solemnity in Wuhan's tone shifted the air of the room. The three of them nodded seriously hearing Wuhan's words.

"With that, let's start the meeting!" Wuhan declared with authority. His eyes, brimming with determination and ambition, shone in the bright daylight.
