Chapter 829
Imperial City Dungeon
A beautiful figure slowly walked out from the Intoxicated Spring Pavilion. Her figure was graceful, and her dance was graceful. With a veil covering her body, it caused one's imagination to run wild. His gaze slowly moved up, and an appearance that was tender and beautiful like a flower appeared before Zhuo Wen's eyes, and it was extremely breathtaking.
The person who appeared in front of him was Moyan Wu Shang, the head of the Drunken Spring Pavilion who had invited many young talents to challenge the Morning Bell and Evening Drum.
"So it's Miss Wu Shang!"
Zhuowen's expression softened. He gently put down the beautiful woman and stared at the peerless beauty who had appeared in front of him.
"Does this young master know me?"
Moyan Wu Shang's beautiful eyes flashed as she looked at Zhuowen, who had turned into a waxen middle-aged man. She revealed a trace of doubt. She didn't seem to know this middle-aged man in front of her. However, the latter's gaze revealed that he was quite familiar with her.
Zhuowen also realized that he had lost his composure. He calmed down and said indifferently, "Miss Wu Shang's reputation in the Imperial City is not small. How could I not know of your beauty?
Also, since Miss Wu Shang knows the whereabouts of Mother Xu, can you tell me a thing or two? "
Moyan Wu Shang looked at the middle-aged man in front of her with some doubt. She didn't know why, but she felt that this middle-aged man gave her a familiar feeling. It was a very strange feeling.
However, after looking carefully for a long time, she still discovered that this person's appearance and temperament gave her a very unfamiliar feeling. She had definitely never seen this person before, but that familiar feeling caused her to frown slightly.
After pondering for a moment, Moyan Wu Shang nodded and said, "Then follow me first!"
After saying that, Moyan Wu Shang slowly led the way in front. Zhuowen's eyes revealed a thoughtful look as he followed behind Moyan Wu Shang.
However, what surprised Zhuowen was that he still couldn't see through Moyan Wu Shang's cultivation. From beginning to end, Moyan Wu Shang seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog, making people unable to see through her.
"This woman is not to be underestimated. Her cultivation base is concealed by a layer of power. Even this Master Dragon is unable to see through her cultivation base." Xiao Hei's voice rang out within Zhuowen's mind.
Hearing this, Zhuowen's expression changed. Even Xiao Hei couldn't see through Moyan Wu Shang. It seemed that Moyan Wu Shang wasn't simple.
Actually, when Zhuowen had played the Morning Bell and Evening Drum, he had known that Moyan of War was not simple. He had just not paid much attention to it at the time.
But now, even Xiao Hei couldn't see through Moyan Wushang's depth. It seemed that this woman wasn't simple. He didn't know what this woman's identity was, but it seemed that she wasn't as simple as she seemed.
Moyan Wushang brought Zhuowen to the courtyard where she lived. It was still surrounded by rockery, and there was a pavilion. There was a stone table with a guzheng on it.
Rockery, pavilion, stone table, and guzheng. At this moment, the four artistic conceptions were intertwined. It was still so tranquil and elegant.
"May I know why Young Master is looking for Xu Niang?" Moyan Wushang slowly sat in front of the guzheng and asked lazily.
Zhuowen shook his head and said with a smile, "Actually, with Miss Wushang here, it doesn't matter if I look for Xu Niang or not."
As he spoke, Zhuowen's face began to change. From a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion, he slowly turned into a handsome young man. He returned to his original appearance.
Looking at the young man in front of him, Moyan Wushang's originally lazy expression gradually faded away. He revealed a trace of surprise and said, "Young Master Zhuo?
So it's you! "
Zhuowen's main purpose in looking for Xu Niang was to understand what had happened in the Imperial Capital during this month. He also wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of Lü Hantian.
Moyan Wushang in front of him was quite mysterious. He was probably even more well-informed than Xu Niang. Moreover, even if Moyan Wushang told Emperor Qing, Zhuowen was not afraid. After all, he had the Hundred Transformation Technique. He could change his appearance and aura at will. Knowing that Zhuowen was not dead was useless.
When Emperor Qing searched the entire city for him, he could rely on a secret technique to transform into another person. It would be very difficult to catch Zhuowen.
This was also why Zhuowen was not worried about revealing his true appearance in front of Moyan Wushang.
"In the Imperial Capital, it has been rumored that Young Master Zhuo was killed by an expert from the Blue Dragon Hall. Moreover, Young Master Zhuo was absent from the Marquis Battle for no reason. I thought it was true.
Now it seems that it was just a rumor. "
Moyan Wushang quickly regained her composure. However, she did not lose her composure. Instead, her beautiful eyes flashed as she said, "It seems that Young Master Zhuo wants to inquire about the whereabouts of Lü Hantian?"
Zhuowen looked at Moyan Wushang, who had quickly regained her composure. He nodded and said, "Yes!
I think Miss Wushang won't refuse such a small matter, right? "
Moyan Wushang covered her mouth and laughed, "It is indeed a small matter!
Young Master Zhuo successfully opened the Morning Bell and Evening Drum. This young woman is very grateful. This young woman will not hide this matter from Young Master Zhuo. "
At this point, Moyan Wushang's expression suddenly became serious. She said softly, "Tell me the truth!
Lü Hantian's situation can't be considered good. After Lü Hantian went to the Imperial Capital a month ago, it was as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth. He has not appeared in the Imperial Capital since. "
"Moreover, as far as I know, Lü Hantian seemed to have offended Emperor Qing for some reason. He was captured by Emperor Qing and thrown into the Imperial Capital's Dungeon."
"The Imperial Capital's Dungeon?"
Hearing this, Zhuowen's face turned slightly ugly. He knew quite a bit about the Imperial Capital's Dungeon. It was said that the Imperial Capital's Dungeon was built by the Imperial Family to imprison powerful cultivators. There was no lack of Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators and even some Four Venerable Realm cultivators.
These cultivators were basically villains who had committed heinous crimes or cultivators who were enemies of Emperor Qing. These people were basically mercilessly suppressed by Emperor Qing and could not appear outside for eternity. Instead, they were trapped in the Dungeon for the rest of their lives.
Moreover, this Dungeon was personally designed by Emperor Qing. Not only were there many powerful guards inside, but it also contained all kinds of powerful mechanisms. Even a Heavenly Venerable Realm cultivator would find it extremely difficult to break through the Imperial Capital's Dungeon.
Although Zhuowen knew that Lü Hantian's fate would not be good after Emperor Qing failed to extract the Dragon Soul from his body, he did not expect that Emperor Qing would throw him into the Imperial Capital's Dungeon.
"This Emperor Qing is really ruthless!" Zhuowen cursed in his heart.
Although Zhuowen was extremely jealous of Emperor Qing, it was a pity that Emperor Qing was an Emperor Realm cultivator. This kind of cultivator was like a mountain to him. It was impossible for him to be a match for Emperor Qing.
"It seems that I have to make a trip to the Imperial Capital's Dungeon!"
Frowning slightly, Zhuowen looked at Moyan Wushang and said, "Miss Wushang, do you know the layout of the Imperial Capital's Dungeon?"
After asking this question, Zhuowen felt a little regretful. Although Moyan Wushang was extremely mysterious, the Imperial Capital's Dungeon was designed by Emperor Qing. No matter how resourceful Moyan Wushang was, it was unlikely that she knew the specific layout.
Moreover, Zhuowen was undoubtedly hinting to Moyan Wushang that he was going to the Imperial Capital's Dungeon to save someone. If Moyan Wushang revealed this matter to Emperor Qing in advance, wouldn't Zhuowen be in danger?
Moyan Wushang chuckled and raised her jade-like hand. Suddenly, a jade-colored scroll appeared in her palm. She said, "This scroll records the layout of the Imperial Capital's Dungeon. However, I have something that I need your help with."
Looking at the scroll in Moyan Wushang's hand, Zhuowen's eyes revealed a trace of joy. He did not expect Moyan Wushang to really have the layout of the Imperial Capital's Dungeon. Zhuowen could not help but think highly of Moyan Wushang.
"Miss Wushang, please tell me."
Slowly calming down, Zhuowen knew that Moyan Wushang had taken out such a precious layout of the Dungeon. He was afraid that she would not give it up so easily.
"If you go to the Imperial Capital's Dungeon, you can help me save someone!" Moyan Wushang said indifferently.
As expected!
Zhuowen's eyes slightly narrowed. He knew that Moyan Wushang would not give him the layout so easily. She actually wanted him to save someone in the Imperial Capital's Dungeon.
"If Miss Wushang gives me the layout of the Dungeon, I am willing to help you save someone." Zhuowen was worried about Lü Hantian's safety. He did not hesitate to agree.
"You are indeed straightforward!
This is a portrait of that person. As for the location of this person and Lü Hantian, I have already marked them in the layout. You only need to go to the marked location to save someone. "Moyan Wushang said with a faint smile.
"Even the markings are marked!
It seems that Moyan Wushang originally wanted to save this person. However, it just so happens that I need her help, so she asked me to save this person. "
Zhuowen thought to himself. His gaze converged on the portrait in Moyan Wushang's hands. He saw that the portrait was of a middle-aged man. However, this middle-aged man had very long hair and a golden beard. He looked like a dignified lion.
"I will save this person as well. Now, Miss Wushang should give me the layout of the Dungeon, right?" Zhuowen nodded and said with an expressionless face.
"Of course!"
Moyan Wushang waved her lily-white hand, and the jade-colored scroll was handed over to Zhuowen.
Taking the jade scroll, Zhuo Wen's consciousness entered the scroll and silently browsed through its contents. There were indeed many diagrams drawn on the scroll. Zhuo Wen could tell at a glance that these diagrams were the overall layout of a building.
Zhuowen knew that the contents of these drawings should be the overall layout of the Imperial Capital's Dungeon. It was indeed very detailed.
After looking at it, Zhuowen let out a sigh of relief. There was a trace of shock in his eyes. This Imperial Capital's Dungeon was simply a work of art. The structure inside was so complex that it almost made Zhuowen gasp in amazement.
From top to bottom, the Imperial Capital's Dungeon was divided into eighteen levels. The eighteenth level was thousands of feet underground. It was heavily guarded and there were countless experts.
After looking at the layout of the Dungeon in his hands, Zhuowen's face became more and more unsightly. If he didn't have this layout, wanting to break into the Imperial Capital's Dungeon was simply courting death.
Even if he had this layout in his hands, he didn't have much confidence that he could successfully bring Lü Hantian out of the Dungeon.
Moyan Wushang also saw Zhuowen's difficult expression. She chuckled and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so anxious to save Lü Hantian. In the Imperial Capital's Dungeon, Lü Hantian's life is not in danger."
"However, I heard that Qing Yan from the Azure Dragon Division took Qing Yi and Qing Wu and set off for Muqin County a month ago. It is said that they plan to capture the Ryūka descendants …"
