Chapter 1447 - 1448: Ling Xue, Let Go
Of course, Ye Luo’s message sent a wave of urgency through Yun Liancheng and the Feathered Forest Guards he commanded!
The Demon Clan’s replacement plan is far too peculiar, so much so that Ye Luo couldn’t afford to trust anyone!
Li Long had once said that the Demon Clan of the Da Yue Empire had been implementing their replacement plan in the Great Tang Empire not just for a day or two, but for decades. Decades of time were enough to allow those Demon Clan replacements to climb to positions of significant power.
It could be said that Ye Luo’s discovery of the Demon Clan’s replacements this time was a precarious matter. A single misstep could cost him his life, and he might not even find out who was targeting him. Thus, Ye Luo had to tread carefully!
As Ye Luo sent out his signal, Yun Liancheng quickly led his men over. Simultaneously, other Feathered Forest Guards also arrived. Ye Luo immediately ordered the ballroom to be entirely sealed off and instructed Yun Liancheng to escort the Young Master of the Pearfall Palace to the Imperial Palace!
As for Ye Luo himself, he did not go along. Instead, he carried Princess Ling Xue and quickly headed toward the academy’s inner courtyard. Ye Luo could tell Ling Xue was poisoned, but he was utterly unable to determine the nature of the poison. Therefore, perhaps seeking out You Ji was the best option.
Heading to the inner courtyard, there was naturally no one to obstruct Ye Luo, so it wasn’t long before he reached You Ji.
"Mentor, Ling Xue has been poisoned by the Demon Clan’s replacement. I can’t figure out what kind of toxin it is, so I have no choice but to bring her to you first!"
Ye Luo said urgently to You Ji. After all, Ling Xue was someone he knew, and given that Ye Luo didn’t know many people to begin with, there was no way he would stand by idly.
In a blur of movement, You Ji appeared beside Ling Xue, but after inspecting her for a moment, her expression grew peculiar.
"She’s fine, there’s no major issue. Just take care of her; she’ll probably wake up soon. Stay here and keep her company for now."
Having said that, You Ji promptly left.
