C618 Barging in
Lee Zhuohua frowned when he heard the guard's shout. He did not expect the Imperial Palace Guard to change people. The people in front of him did not know that they were participants of the Sandalwood Book Will.
"Since we are the participants of the Sandalwood Book Will, please let us in." Lin Yue stepped forward and explained.
Lee Zhuohua and the others initially thought that as long as they told them who they were and where they came from, these guards would let them in. But who would have thought that after the guard heard Lin Yue's words, he didn't let them in as they expected. Instead, his eyes revealed a look of disdain.
"Today is the Sandalwood Book Will Challenge Tournament, and the participants are already in the palace. All you people want is to go in and watch the tournament. Who knows how many people have been here this morning, and how many times have you said the same thing to deceive us? Scram." The guard looked like he had seen through everything. He said to Lee Zhuohua and the others.
Lee Zhuohua and the others were slightly taken aback by his words. They did not expect such a thing to happen. This way, it would be difficult for them to explain their origins to the guards.
"We are really the contestants of the Sandalwood Book Will. Look, his name is Lee Zhuohua, and he is ranked first on the Stellar Monument." At this moment, Yun Fan also began to talk to the guard. As he spoke, he even told the guard about Lee Zhuohua's ranking on the Stellar Monument.
He thought that these guards would react when they heard Lee Zhuohua's ranking.
"Pfft, he is the first? If he is the first one, then I will be Prince Gu Yang. Go away." The guard said impatiently. He had never heard of Lee Zhuohua's name before.
"This..." Yun Fan did not expect this kind of reaction from the guard.
The Sandalwood Book Will Challenge Tournament had already begun, but the few of them were blocked outside the palace. This really hurt Lee Zhuohua and the others' brains.
"What should we do?" Lin Yue asked.
"Gu Yang did not give us any proof of identity, so there is no way to prove our identities to them, and these people will not recognize the Qian Yuan Academy's token, so it will be a bit troublesome." Yun Fan also frowned.
Lee Zhuohua looked at Zhuyun in his arms and had a thought.
"Let's break in." Lee Zhuohua raised his head and said.
"You want to barge in from here? You're crazy! Although Gu Yang and the Qian Yuan Academy have a good relationship, if we barge in through here, the people who come here will not know our identities, and will attract a lot of cultivators. At that time, it will trigger the conflict between Gu Yang and Qian Yuan Academy." Yun Fan rejected Lee Zhuohua's suggestion.
Although Lin Yue didn't say anything, she didn't agree with Lee Zhuohua's suggestion.
"Who said that we have to break in from here?" Lee Zhuohua suddenly changed the topic.
Hearing what Lee Zhuohua said, Lin Yue and Yun Fan looked at Lee Zhuohua at the same time. They did not know what Lee Zhuohua meant. If they did not break in here, where would they break in?
"What do you mean?" Yun Fan asked directly.
Lee Zhuohua did not answer him directly. Instead, he pointed to the sky.
Heaven? Did he mean to fly in from the sky? What was the difference between this and entering through the main entrance? The guards were all at the Astral Realm, so they could also fly.
However, at this moment, Yun Fan suddenly thought of something.
"Yes, Ancient Yang Imperial Palace forbids flying, and those below the Earth Surge are not allowed to fly in the air, but with our current cultivation, we are also unable to fly." Yun Fan pondered.
However, Lee Zhuohua smiled. He took Zhuyun, who had been listening to the three of them talking, out of his arms.
"Although the Ancient Yang Imperial Palace forbids flying, that is only a restriction for cultivators. Zhuyun is a bird and is not included in the list. We can let it carry us in." Lee Zhuohua said to the two of them as he held Zhuyun in his arms.
Hearing his explanation, the two of them understood in an instant. Their eyes began to light up as they looked at Zhuyun.
Zhuyun still looked confused. When he saw the three of them staring at him, he thought he had done something bad to make them look at him like that.
"Zhuyun, it's up to you now." Lee Zhuohua smiled at Zhuyun.
After that, under Lee Zhuohua's signal, Zhuyun turned back to his true form. He had a body that was a few feet large, and his back was extremely broad. It was more than enough for him to carry Lee Zhuohua and the other two.
Zhuyun did not mind Lee Zhuohua and Lin Yue getting on its back, but he felt bad about Yun Fan. Before this, Yun Fan had been talking about how it would taste when it was grilled. This made it remember it. It had to be said that Zhuyun was quite vengeful.
"Please, I was just joking with you earlier. Don't hold such a grudge." Seeing that Zhuyun did not want him to go up, Yun Fan's face immediately became bitter.
However, Zhuyun didn't care about him at all. He just turned his head to the other side as if he didn't want to listen to what he said.
The man and the bird's behavior made Lee Zhuohua laugh.
"Alright, Zhuyun. Stop messing around. He was just joking earlier." In the end, it was only after Lee Zhuohua persuaded him that Zhuyun reluctantly let Yun Fan get on his back.
However, when Yun Fan went up, Zhuyun deliberately shook her body, causing Yun Fan to lose his balance and almost fall.
"Damn, he doesn't have to hold such a grudge, does he?" Yun Fan, on the other hand, was stunned.
Lin Yue, who was at the side, covered his mouth with a smile.
"Why did you tease it before? Zhuyun, I support you." Lin Yue said as he stroked Zhuyun's soft feathers.
"Cough ~"
Zhuyun let out a long cry in his heart, and then spread his wings and soared into the sky. The banning effect of the Ancient Yang Imperial Palace had no effect on it.
It followed Lee Zhuohua's instructions and flew straight into the Imperial Palace.
...
After Lee Zhuohua and the others left, the guards began to communicate.
"How many waves have we been through today? All of them want to sneak in."
"Exactly, you want to trick us? No way! And you claim to be the most talented person in the Sandalwood Book Will. Why don't you just say that he is Prince Gu Yang?"
These guards were talking about the people who were going to break into the Imperial Palace today. They were especially disdainful of Lee Zhuohua and the others.
While they were talking, a black shadow was suddenly projected under their feet. They looked up at the sky in confusion.
They just happened to see the few people they had just chased away sitting on the back of a huge bird-type Fierce Beast as it flew towards the Ancient Yang Imperial Palace.
When they saw this scene, their expressions immediately froze.
"This is a Fierce Beast! Quickly inform the others to stop this Fierce Beast from entering the Imperial Palace!" One of them quickly said.
The rest of the guards snapped out of their daze and quickly went to inform the other guards to intercept the ferocious beast.
"It's those few people from before. Damn it." Someone among them recognized Lee Zhuohua and the others who were on Zhuyun's back.
All of a sudden, the guards of the imperial palace gathered here, wanting to stop Lee Zhuohua and the rest.
However, for the imperial palace, which had a no-fly restriction, they, the guards, could not fly at all, so they could not stop Lee Zhuohua and the others directly, unless they called for the Earth Charge Realm Cultivator.
However, none of the Earth Charge Realm Cultivators were in the Imperial Palace. By the time they were invited, the Fierce Beast would have already barged in.
