Chapter 2466

The starship soon arrived at the location of the Blood King Palace.

Within the sphere of influence of the Blood King Palace, naturally, there was not only the Blood King Palace itself; there were also many other major and minor sects and families.

However, they were all vassals of the Blood King Palace and followed the lead of the Blood King Palace.

The Blood King Palace was built on a blood-colored mountain range, which gave people a feeling of oppression and bloodiness.

The architecture of the entire Blood King Palace was also dominated by dark red, as if it had been soaked in fresh blood.

Many disciples and Elders of the Blood King Palace also wore blood-colored robes.

The starship landed slowly in front of the main hall of the Blood King Palace; when Viper led everyone off the ship, a middle-aged man with a gloomy face and a thin figure was already waiting here.

"Brother Viper."

"Brother Lixue."

The gloomy man was the Blood King Palace Master Lixue, who was also an Emperor Realm expert, with a cultivation base equivalent to Viper's.

The two had known each other for many years, and meeting at this moment, they were also very enthusiastic.

After greeting Viper, Lixue also nodded to the group of leaders behind Viper.

At this time, Viper pulled Ye Changqing to his side and introduced him to Lixue with a smile.

"Brother Viper, this is Ye Changqing, who is also my brother."

"Oh, hello Brother Ye."

Upon hearing this, Lixue smiled and nodded, and Ye Changqing also returned the greeting.

After getting to know each other, Ye Changqing and the others followed the Elders of the Blood King Palace to their residence.

Everyone naturally lived in the Blood King Palace; as for Viper, he walked into the main hall with Lixue, looking as if they intended to catch up on old times.

With Ye Changqing's status, he was naturally assigned a separate cave dwelling; the brothers Li Tie-niu and Li Tie-dan, along with the two spirit chefs, lived with Ye Changqing.

The four of them were now considered Ye Changqing's subordinates, and Viper had arranged it this way as well.

Walking into the cave dwelling, Ye Changqing looked around and did not find any problems, nor did he find any surveillance.

It seemed that Viper had not noticed anything.

After getting off the starship and having a separate cave dwelling, Ye Changqing's actions would be much more convenient.

Letting the brothers Li Tie-niu and Li Tie-dan guard outside the secret chamber, Ye Changqing himself dove into the secret chamber.

The two brothers did not ask what Ye Changqing was going to do, but just nodded in response.

Like two door gods, they guarded outside the secret chamber, not letting anyone approach.

And inside the main hall, Viper and Lixue were chatting and laughing; not having seen each other for many years, they naturally had many things to say.

In the midst of chatting and laughing, Viper suddenly mentioned Ye Changqing.

"Brother Lixue, this time you must taste the craftsmanship of our Ye Changqing; I can tell you, it is absolutely a delicacy of the world."

"Oh, this Ye Changqing is also a spirit chef?"

"Haha, to tell you the truth, what I value in this kid is his culinary skills."

"Brother Viper, you have traveled north and south for so many years, and can be considered well-informed; what delicacies have you not eaten? Is a mere spirit chef worth you valuing him so much?"

"That's where you're wrong; how can Ye Changqing's craftsmanship be compared to those pieces of trash? When the time comes, Brother Lixue, you will know once you eat a bite yourself."

"Haha, good; if you say so, then I am really looking forward to it."

"Tomorrow I will let Ye Changqing personally make a table of food, and you and I, brothers, will drink until we are drunk."

He didn't know if it was because he had come to the Blood King Palace, but Viper had relaxed his vigilance.

Except for the brothers Li Tie-niu and Li Tie-dan, Viper actually did not arrange for anyone else to monitor him.

After eating dinner that day, Ye Changqing walked around the Blood King Palace casually.

On one hand, it was to observe the environment of the Blood King Palace and plan an escape route.

On the other hand, it was also to test if anyone was monitoring him.

The result naturally made Ye Changqing overjoyed; this Viper actually did not let anyone else monitor him.

And the many disciples and Elders of the Blood King Palace also knew that he was a leader of Viper's gang, and they were very friendly toward Ye Changqing.

Except for some forbidden areas of the Blood King Palace, Ye Changqing's activities within the Blood King Palace were completely unrestricted.

Looking at this situation, even if Ye Changqing wanted to leave the Blood King Palace, these disciples and Elders of the Blood King Palace would probably not have any obstruction.

However, Ye Changqing was not that stupid; now was not the time.

The Blood King Palace would not stop him, but Viper would definitely not let him leave the Blood King Palace.

Moving around within the Blood King Palace, Viper would not think much of it, but if Ye Changqing exposed even a little bit of his intention to leave the Blood King Palace, Viper would probably become vigilant immediately.

Therefore, Ye Changqing also deliberately pretended to be purely curious about the Blood King Palace.

After strolling around for a while, Ye Changqing returned to the cave dwelling; the night passed without incident. The next day, Viper indeed came to find him, saying that he wanted Ye Changqing to make a few tables of delicacies for the people of the Blood King Palace to taste.

Regarding this, Ye Changqing had already thought of it; it could even be said that this was a crucial part of his plan.

Therefore, although he did not like Viper's order, Ye Changqing still pretended to be obedient and nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Viper nodded with satisfaction.

"Mm, then I'll trouble you tonight; also, save some face for us brothers, and let these people of the Blood King Palace know what is called a delicacy of the world."

"Boss, don't worry, I will definitely do my best."

"Good."

Viper left, and Ye Changqing sneered in his heart: I will definitely let you know.

He did not notice any problems, and, tonight, the group of Elders of the Blood King Palace also seemed to be attending the banquet, which suited Ye Changqing's wishes even more.

He began to prepare the banquet for the evening; of course, there were also meals for the other star bandits.

However, in today's meals, Ye Changqing added a little something.

These were all prepared by Ye Changqing himself in the secret chamber yesterday.

It was a sleeping drug that could make even an Emperor Realm expert fall into a short coma.

Ye Changqing had originally planned to use poison directly, but this poison had some problems, which was that the time it took to take effect varied with the cultivation base.

When the time came, once the poison took effect on those with low cultivation, it would likely lead to failure.

And this sleeping drug was naturally exchanged from the system, and the time it took to take effect was half an hour, regardless of the cultivation base.

The only difference was that the higher the cultivation base, the shorter the time of the coma.

However, even with an Emperor Realm cultivation base, they could be unconscious for at least an hour.

An hour's time, although very tight, was enough.

He had long since exchanged the formula for the sleeping drug from the system, and Ye Changqing had also started preparing the necessary materials early on.

Viper did not find any clues.

As usual, Ye Changqing was making meals with a calm face, but the two spirit chefs to the side were a bit nervous.

Their complexions were a bit abnormal; they knew what was going to be done today, and they couldn't help but feel nervous in their hearts.

Seeing this, Ye Changqing transmitted his voice:

"Relax a bit; you have it written all over your faces, and if someone sees it, it's clearly problematic."

This was something that anyone could see had a ghost in their heart; it was also because there were no other people in the kitchen now, and they were all his own people, otherwise they would have been exposed.
