Chapter 665: Lin Luochen Forcefully Breaks Into the Capital

~7 min read 1,221 words

Hearing Tang Yao's words, Lin Luochen felt worse and worse, you call this being straightforward and efficient?

Damn, how the hell do you sneak into Huánggōng?

Tang Yao's meaning is actually simple; just look at the Dao Yi Sect's recent actions—entering their Great Abyss Huánggōng is like walking into one's own backyard—how could that not demonstrate their strength?

Even a plan isn't needed, showing Qi Xiong has absolute confidence in his disciples.

After sighing, Lin Luochen turned their head and saw that a Dao Yi Sect disciple hadn't left yet.

Moreover, they didn't think much of it, and even politely smiled and said.

"Lin Xiaoyou, take care on the way."

"Older Sister Lin, be a bit more careful."

The Tang family, following the plan, was to provide external support, but Shan Hu was too unrestrained; they didn't plan to bring him into Huánggōng for now, so they left him behind.

Hearing Tang Yao and Shan Hu's words, Lin Luochen revealed an extremely unnatural smile, and then the back of their head buzzed as they left.

Along the way, she kept thinking about how to sneak into Huánggōng; if it were her Shī xiōng, what would they do?

Thinking this, Lin Luochen had already arrived outside the city gate.

Seeing the city gate with a long queue, she realized that talking about entering Huánggōng was premature; first she needed to find a way into the capital.

Just watching the city guards inspect each person's fish token, she frowned.

After searching all around, they didn't see a trace of any fellow disciples.

They just left a bit earlier than me; where are they? Could it be they haven't arrived here yet?

Actually, Zhao Zhengping, Xu Jie, and including Ye Zhangqing's group had already entered the city.

As for the method, it's simple—do you think the Transformation Realm Exploring Cloud Hand is a joke?

Back when fighting the Fomen, the disciples stole everything, not even sparing their underwear.

Now wanting to make a small fish token to prove identity, that's still easy to obtain.

So all the Shī xiōng entered the city very smoothly.

But when it came to Lin Luochen, things didn't go as expected.

After a moment's thought, her first reaction was naturally to secretly obtain one, after all this is the simplest method.

But she had never learned the Exploring Cloud Hand, and had never done anything similar before.

Furthermore, the previous actions of the Dao Yi Sect disciples caused many people's fish tokens to mysteriously disappear.

That's why so many people gathered at the city gate.

So, at the moment Lin Luochen made a move, those who had already been on high alert noticed immediately.

Originally the target was a middle-aged man, but this middle-aged man remained vigilant; suddenly he felt movement at his waist's fish token, he gripped it tightly with one hand and hastily turned his head, coming face-to-face with Lin Luochen.

Lin Luochen also didn't expect the middle-aged man's reaction to be so swift.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward for a moment, but the next second, with the middle-aged man's angry roar, Lin Luochen was dazed.

"Little thief is here, I've caught him, quickly go call the military officer."

"Huh??? What little thief???"

Lin Luochen was completely dazed, unable to understand what the middle-aged man was saying.

But soon, with the shouting, several city guards quickly walked over.

Upon seeing Lin Luochen, several of them immediately looked hostile, some even drawing their waist swords.

"Bold thief, having stolen something, you dare not leave."

"Huh???"

"Damn, what did I steal? I haven't even had a chance to act yet."

With so many people losing their fish tokens, the city guards naturally blamed everything on Lin Luochen.

Moreover, even if it wasn't her alone, it was definitely a gang job; although we don't know what they want the fish tokens for, they surely have ill intent—first apprehend them, then talk.

"Apprehend."

The leading guard waved his hand, immediately signaling to act.

Seeing this, Lin Luochen was also speechless—what the hell is going on?

However, facing the guards' step-by-step approach, she naturally couldn't just surrender.

She still remembered the Sect Master saying they'd meet again at Huánggōng; if she ended up in prison, she wouldn't even get to see anything.

Seeing no other option, Lin Luochen gritted her teeth and directly attacked.

With her cultivation, dealing with a few ordinary city guards was naturally easy.

But the fighting noise would surely attract the attention of other city guards.

Soon, the sound of a call-for-help battle drum came from the city gate; someone was causing a disturbance at the gate.

"Damn it."

Cursing silently, Lin Luochen couldn't worry about anything else; having come this far, she could only seize the chance to rush into the city first.

After entering the city, then think of a way to sneak into Huánggōng.

Her body turned into an afterimage, swiftly rushing into the city, while the city guards at the gate were still shouting loudly.

"Surround this thief, don't let her get away."

"Captain, something's not right."

"What's wrong?"

"That little thief is coming toward us."

"Huh???"

Hearing that, the captain turned his head and indeed saw Lin Luochen not retreating but advancing, even actively rushing into the city—what was she trying to do? For a moment the captain didn't know what to do.

Logically, since it's already like this, shouldn't she just flee? How could she be walking into a trap?

You should know, once you enter the imperial capital, it's like catching a turtle in a jar— is this person stupid?

"He's gorgeous, but is his brain sick?"

The captain couldn't help but sigh, but he quickly came to his senses and then barked in a low voice.

"Let her in."

He's not stupid; he knows Lin Luochen's strength is not ordinary, far beyond what these ordinary soldiers can handle.

But since they want to seek death, then as she wishes, let them in first and talk later.

I rushed all the way to the city gate, expecting a fight, but the guards there actually stepped aside on their own.

Their faces actually broke into smiles.

"Huh? What's the deal with this guy?"

As they passed, Lin Luochen looked doubtful, while the city guards' eyes were full of mockery.

Under that gaze, Lin Luochen managed to break into the imperial capital, and the city guard coldly said:

"Notify the general, send people to search and capture— we must not let this thief escape."

"Yes."

I didn't dare to linger along the way, pressing on until I reached an empty alley, where Lin Luochen finally stopped.

Now that we've made it into the imperial capital, what's next?

"I wonder how the senior brothers are doing."

I'm still worried about Zhao Zhengping and Xu Jie, unaware that the Shī xiōng are already leisurely strolling around the city, taking it easy.

"Tsk tsk, no wonder it's a big city of Zhongzhou; since we want to sneak into the Huánggōng, we don't need to rush— first gather intel, knowing yourself and the enemy ensures victory in a hundred battles— this Gōulán is pretty good."

Xu Jie walked along, muttering to himself, when he happened to pass a luxuriously decorated Gōulán, spouting nonsense about gathering intel, then turned a corner and walked in with a smile.
