About an incense stick later, the two of them arrived in front of a secluded palace. That was where the Thunder Shaking Palace was located. However, Guisi had previously said that Hua Weiyang was imprisoned there.

At this moment, Xiao Chen stared fixedly at the deep palace without saying a word. Under Guisi’s leadership, the two of them seemed to have entered an uninhabited land. They were surprisingly unobstructed.

“Let’s go.”

After the group of patrols passed, Guisi moved and immediately brought him into the Thunder Shock Palace. Inside the palace, it was even wider than when he was looking outside. It was just a huge palace, but at this moment, there was no one there. Only the sound of their footsteps echoed, and the fiendish gloomy wind blew from nowhere.

After the two of them left for a while, Xiao Chen suddenly stopped and warned his surroundings, “Where are the people? Didn’t you say that Wei Yang was locked up here?”

At this moment, the expression on Guisi’s face suddenly became a little strange. It was as if he had changed into a different person. His questions were actually ignored and he directly walked towards the top of the hall.

“But Guisi, where is he?”

Xiao Chen stood behind him and asked with a frown. As he spoke, a Genuine energy had already appeared in his hand.

Guisi still didn’t answer. He walked straight to the head of the hall. When he reached the top, he suddenly cupped his hands and cupped his hands towards a stone door inside. “Elder, I’ve brought you here,” he said.

“Haha …”

A gloomy laugh came from within the dark horned stone door. Immediately after, a purple-robed old man walked out, his figure gradually becoming clear.

The old man’s eyebrows were sharp, and his eyes were deep. There was a purple thunder mark between his eyebrows, causing everyone to feel suffocated after a single glance.

This old man was none other than Elder Lei Zhen, one of the Eight Palace Elders. Among the elders, his cultivation was the most profound and unfathomable.

“Xiao Yichen, this time, you personally delivered it to me. I can’t blame anyone else …”

Elder Lei Zhen looked at Xiao Chen and said gloomily. Then, he pointed at the nearby Guisi and continued, “If it weren’t for his leadership, do you really think that I, Zhen Lightning Palace, would be so easy to enter?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Thunder-shaking Hall suddenly trembled violently. Surrounding it, layers of restrictions were instantly sealed.

“So that’s how it is. I told you that the restrictions of the Heavenly Gate are heavy, but why did it seem as if it had entered an uninhabited land just now …”

Until now, Xiao Chen was still calm, but at this moment, there was a deep sense of disappointment in his gaze towards Guisi. “Guisi, however, has wasted all my trust in you. I didn’t expect that from the very beginning, this was the trap you set up to lure me here, right?”

“Brother Xiao … I’m sorry.”

Guisi took a deep breath and closed his eyes. “I have no other choice but to do so. That’s why …” He finally opened his eyes and looked at Elder Lei Zhen. “I’ve already brought someone for Elder Lei Zhen. Can you fulfill Elder Lei’s promise?”

“Don’t worry, Guisi. You’ve made great contributions this time. I promised you that I would do it, but not now.”

Elder Lei Zhen’s expression was gloomy. As he spoke, he slowly walked downstairs. He looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Xiao Yichen, you came here tonight and bypassed the guards, so no one saw you come in. Even the three Daoists don’t know that you’re with me now …”

Xiao Chen sneered. “That’s why Elder Lei Zhen intends to imprison me in the Thunder Shock Palace forever. No one knows about this. One day, Elder Lei Zhen will be able to dig out the Heavenly Book from my divine sense. In the future, he will be able to cultivate the peerless divine arts inside and defeat the other elders. Elder Lei Zhen … You really played a good game today.”

Elder Lei Zhen’s expression did not change when he heard him say his boundless ambition. He was originally ambitious. Even though the Eight Palace Elders were already extremely powerful in the Heavenly Gate, he still had ambitions. However, his own strength was not enough to support his ambition. That was why he came up with the idea of the Heavenly Book that everyone was thinking about.

“Xiao Yichen, since you know what I want, why don’t you hand over the Book of Heaven to save your soul from suffering …”

Elder Lei Zhen’s expression became even gloomier. However, behind him, Guisi’s expression gradually became somewhat nervous. He thought to himself, “Yichen, I can only help you here. Now that I can delay Elder Lei Zhen for a moment, you must rescue Miss Wei Yang from the Thunder Prison as soon as possible …”

What he saw in front of him might not be true. Things in this world were always true and illusory. He thought that night before Mei Jianyi went to Tianji Palace, he had already calculated the truth.

At this moment, the real Xiao Yichen had already sneaked into the Lightning Prison. If he encountered any restrictions, he would be released by Ku Lingzi.

“Kid, there’s an extremely powerful restriction ahead. Let me do it. Don’t alarm the people outside.”

Ku Lingzi appeared once again from the Soul Jade. Xiao Chen silently retreated to the side. He had to be careful along the way. Otherwise, not only would he not be able to save Wei Yang tonight, he would also implicate Guisi and Shen Jing to fall into Elder Lei Zhen’s hands.

All of this was Guisi’s real plan.

Back on the night of June 22, Guisi called Xiao Chen out alone.

“Yi Chen, listen to me slowly. Whether Hua Weiyang is imprisoned in the Thunder Prison or the Thunder Shock Palace, it’s impossible for us to rescue her if we go in like this. I know Elder Lei Zhen’s strength very well. Even with Senior Madam Xian Shu and Ku Lingzi, it’s impossible for us to deal with her.”

“Then … what do you plan to do?”

“Do you believe me?”

“Tell me.”

“Alright, listen carefully. Elder Lei Zhen has great ambitions. He wants to obtain the remnant of the Heavenly Book. I once met him. I can lure him into the trap here and make him trust me. I believe that I will lure you into the Thunder Shock Palace. Only in this way can I lure him away from the Thunder Prison and you can go in to save Miss Wei Yang.”

“You mean to have someone pretend to be me and follow you to the Thunder Shock Palace?”

‘”That’s right. Do you remember that time in Pingdingshan? Miss Wei Yang’s disguise art is one of the best in the world. You have been with her for a long time, so you must have learned a bit. Only Miss Shen Jing is the most familiar with you. If she disguises herself as you, she can imitate every word and expression of yours. Only in this way can she hide it from Elder Lei Zhen’s eyes.”

“Then … how do you gain Elder Lei Zhen’s trust?”

“One thing, He will trust me, “Ten years ago, I was expelled because I was schemed and charged with accidentally killing my fellow disciples. Only Elder Lei Zhen knew at that time that that person died because of carelessness and not because of my hands. Only he could prove my innocence and restore my past identity. However, he did not expect that I no longer love the Heavenly Gate. I would rather be a wild crane than return to the Heavenly Gate.”

“Elder Lei Zhen, will he believe you?”

“He will definitely win my trust.”

“Then I … should I believe you?”

…

At this moment, Xiao Chen was still asking the same question that night, but thinking back, should I believe you?

“Kid, quickly come over and take a look.”

“What’s the matter?”

Xiao Chen immediately regained his senses from his contemplation and walked up. When he saw where Ku Lingzi was pointing, his expression couldn’t help but change slightly.
