Chapter 1597 The Palace Master's Blood
After the flute demon said that, Xiao Yanbao felt even more strongly that this was a trap.
My master was secretly captured and brought to the Demon Realm, so how could I possibly mention his name in front of those demon soldiers?
Could it be that the Great Protector has already discovered that the Demonic Flute was deliberately saying that?
Or perhaps the Demonic Flute and the Great Protector conspired against her.
But Dahuang didn't hear that Dimo was lying to her.
So it's the former possibility.
The flute demon noticed his master's hesitation.
"Master, don't you believe what I'm saying?"
Xiao Yanbao was afraid of discouraging Di Mo from being enthusiastic, so she said, "Let's go take a look."
Xiao Yanbao wanted to go and see for herself.
Whether it was a trap or not, Xiao Yanbao wanted to find out.
"Sister Yanbao, I think that might be a trap."
Xiao Yanbao didn't say it, but Huo Lichuan did.
"Hey, what do you mean, Mr. Huo? Are you saying I conspired with the Grand Protector to plot against Master? Now, it's a place where you can enter but not leave. If I were plotting against Master, I would have already notified the Grand Protector when I found him. Why would I have taken Master to the Nine Locks Hall?"
This time, Di Mo truly refused to be on friendly terms with Huo Lichuan.
Actually, Huo Lichuan didn't mean it that way. He also felt that the Great Protector might have already discovered that the Demonic Flute was deliberately saying that.
Of course, this was just his guess, and he was just reminding Xiao Yanbao to be careful.
"We'll just be careful. Anyway, we still have the Ruyi Bag as a way out. The Great Protector definitely can't catch us."
Di Mo rolled his eyes at Huo Lichuan and then led the way.
Xiao Yanbao originally wanted to go with Di Mo and the others, but thinking that it would be quite troublesome if those demon soldiers discovered her aura on the way, she decided to go into the Ruyi Bag and let Huo Lichuan take her.
So Xiao Yanbao went back into the Ruyi Bag.
The flute demon, who was grumbling and leading the way, suddenly couldn't sense his master's presence and quickly turned around to look.
I really didn't see the owner.
[Master, Master, where have you gone?]
[What are you shouting for? I'm inside the magic bag. My presence is easily detected here, even if I've applied an invisibility talisman.]
This time, the flute demon noticed that Huo Lichuan had his master's Ruyi bag hanging from his waist.
He wanted to snatch his master's lucky bag.
But seeing Huo Lichuan's cold face, I decided to let him hang there for a while.
It is clear that the Flute Demon is very familiar with the Demon Cloud Palace.
They know where the demon soldiers are and where they are not.
The flute demon deliberately chose to go to places where there were no demon soldiers.
After winding their way around for quite a while, Di Mo finally led Huo Lichuan to a place not far from a palace.
There were many demon soldiers guarding the Nine Locks Palace, so Di Mo didn't dare bring Huo Lichuan to the front of the Nine Locks Palace.
【Master, that palace ahead is the Nine Locks Palace.】
Xiao Yanbao saw a palace not far away through the Ruyi bag; she felt like she had seen this palace before.
[Brother Huo, haven't we seen this palace in the magic mirror of Bloodfrost?]
If Xiao Yanbao hadn't mentioned it, Huo Lichuan wouldn't have remembered.
He also felt that the face looked somewhat familiar.
Yes, yes, it's the palace that appeared in the magic mirror.
Xiao Yanbao originally wanted to ask Di Mo how much he knew about the Nine Locks Palace, but now she didn't want to ask Di Mo; she wanted to ask Xue Shuang first.
"Brother Huo, let's not act rashly. Let me ask Xue Shuang."
[Sister Yanbao, pull me into the Ruyi Bag too, I want to hear it too.]
Xiao Yanbao: Then let's put them all into the Ruyi Bag.
It's convenient to talk inside the Ruyi Bag.
Xiao Yanbao then pulled Di Mo and Huo Lichuan into the Ruyi Bag.
[Master, are you planning to keep an eye on things from inside the Ruyi Bag to see if the Great Protector comes here?]
The flute demon knew that its master could see what was happening outside.
Although he couldn't see outside.
Xiao Yanbao also had the same idea.
So Xiao Yanbao nodded.
Actually, she doesn't need to keep an eye on it all the time; Big Yellow can help her keep an eye on it.
When Xiao Yanbao took out the Ruyi Bag, she threw the Blood Frost into the place where she was sleeping.
Since we can't erase Bloodfrost's memories, we can't let him know too much.
Xiao Yanbao brought the Blood Frost over from where she was sleeping.
Xue Shuang was still dazed and hadn't fully woken up when Xiao Yanbao asked, "Tell me everything about the Nine Locks Palace."
Upon hearing the name Nine Locks Palace, Blood Frost's sleepiness vanished instantly.
He instinctively wanted to say he didn't know, but when his gaze fell on Huo Lichuan's cold face, he swallowed his words back.
"I only know that it's where the Great Protector imprisons the most dangerous criminals from the Demon Realm. I've never been inside, so I don't know much more."
"Then do you know how to get into the Nine Locks Hall?"
"The Nine Locks Palace has nine arrays. To enter the Nine Locks Palace, you either need the Palace Master's warrant or the Palace Master's blood."
"Didn't you say that was where the Grand Protector held serious criminals? How come it's still the Palace Master's order?"
"The Grand Protector is carrying the Palace Master's warrant. Since there is no Palace Master in the Demon Cloud Palace now, the Grand Protector is equivalent to the Palace Master here."
"Then what about the Palace Master's blood that you mentioned?" Huo Lichuan asked.
"The Palace Master's blood can unlock those nine locks. You're not a descendant of the Palace Master, so why are you asking this? It's as if you can unlock them yourself."
Ever since Huo Lichuan stopped him from addressing Huo Lichuan as a brother, Di Mo has looked down on Huo Lichuan.
I just can't stand Huo Lichuan.
He is the demon trusted by his master.
He'd come to the Demon Realm and wanted to make a good impression on his master, but Huo Lichuan was trying to steal his job.
If you want to compete with him for work, do you think he knows as much about the demon realm as I do?
Huo Lichuan: He really wants to try. His mother is the Palace Master of the Demon Cloud Palace, and the blood of the Palace Master of the Demon Cloud Palace flows in his veins.
"Would the blood of the descendants of the Demon Cloud Palace Master work?" Xiao Yanbao asked on Huo Lichuan's behalf.
Both the Flute Demon and Blood Frost looked at Little Yanbao.
"The Palace Master's descendants? Where would the Palace Master have descendants? The princess is already dead. If there were descendants, would the position of Palace Master of Demon Cloud Palace remain vacant? Wouldn't they have already stepped forward to succeed as the next Palace Master?"
Xiao Yanbao glanced at Huo Lichuan, "Are you so sure the Palace Master has no descendants?"
Xiao Yanbao's question really stumped Di Mo and Xue Shuang.
The palace master eloped with someone back then, so how could they not have children?
However, there has been no news of the Palace Master having any descendants in all these years; instead, there are rumors that the Palace Master has died.
If the seal hadn't been so hard to find, the Great Protector would have already taken the position of Palace Master of the Demon Cloud Palace.
"Sister Yanbao, let's go out and try. If we really can't open it, then we'll hide back inside the Ruyi Bag."
Xiao Yanbao looked outside and said, "No rush, let's wait and see if the Great Protector will really come to this place."
If the master is indeed imprisoned here, then the Great Protector will definitely come here to question him.
