Chapter 2288: The Devil King (6)
Her intuition was right. He was the mysterious puppet master! After a year of being apart, she certainly did not expect that he would possess such odd skills of Kung Fu and even go on to become the Devil King of the Devil Kingdom.
It seemed that no matter how dark the situation seemed to be, he could always find a way and punch a hole through any barrier, shining his light in a whole new world where he was welcomed and celebrated.
Reviewing her own progress, Gu Xijiu realized that she had not achieved much in the past year. She spent most of her time searching for him. She was quite disappointed with herself, actually. Gu Xijiu took a deep breath. Being a stubborn person, she liked to finish everything that she started. Since she wanted to find him, there was no stopping her. Her anxious heart could finally take a rest.
The Devil Palace was rather vast. A wizardry barrier secured the perimeter of the palace. The view on the outside only revealed many buildings that were floating amid the clouds, like the celestial palace that were said to be afloat in the sky.
There was a main gate that was tall and grand, guarded by the most well-trained troops. Under such a level of surveillance, most people couldn’t enter. In order for Gu Xijiu to enter the palace, she could either use the main gate or break the wizardry barrier first and use her teleportation skill after.
She had only seen him once, so she was not sure how he felt about her. There was no way she could request for him so publicly through the main gate. She decided to make a door for herself, so she could sneak into the palace silently to have a look.
The wizardry barrier was very well built, but it was not a problem for Gu Xijiu at all. She knew almost every kind of wizardry barrier and how to solve them.
