Chapter 187 Lin Feng vs. Star Moon Emperor
Time goes back to 7 days ago.
After being taken out of the main hall of Xingyue Palace, Lin Feng and the other seven were taken to the cold palace of Xingyue Palace.
This place used to be where the concubines disfavored by Emperor Xingyue were imprisoned, but now it has become the place where Lin Feng and others are detained.
Although Emperor Xingyue said that he detained people, he did not use violence or force.
After escorting them here, the people from the Imperial Magic Corps opened the barrier to prevent them from leaving, but it did not affect their actions in the cold palace.
"This Star-Moon Emperor and that Caesar's swordsman are in unison and are obviously coming for us. Brother Feng, if we had known earlier, we would not have gotten involved in this mess." Aiston looked around and was still scared by what happened in the palace just now.
"I think we should just force our way out. The barrier here can't stop us. There's no need to play with them." Gotha instigated.
"The Star-Moon Emperor is still afraid of the reputation of the Magic Tower. He can't really do anything to us. I feel like he faked Brady's death. He might be planning a big game." Gunara said.
"How could the emperor's mind be so easily seen through by others? Emperor Xingyue would still come to find Lin Feng." Jin Baili said.
"Then let's send the message back to the magic tower first!" Mirabelle suggested.
"Don't worry, just see what they want to play first."
Lin Feng did not have any major emotional reactions to what happened in the palace today. He just felt that the Star-Moon Emperor was not as difficult to deal with as he had imagined.
If the other person shows his emotions too much and tries too hard, it will seem fake.
Being able to become an emperor, it is not easy for others to see your true thoughts.
What Lin Feng has to do now is to wait for Emperor Xingyue to summon him.
A day passed.
The summons from Emperor Xingyue was long overdue.
According to the request of Emperor Xingyue, only Lin Feng was summoned this time, and the rest of the people stayed here.
But Lin Feng made a request, asking everyone else to leave the Xingyue Palace, otherwise he would not go to see the Xingyue Emperor.
Naturally, everyone was reluctant to leave Lin Feng alone, but Lin Feng insisted that everyone leave Xingyue Palace first and told everyone not to worry.
When the guards reported Lin Feng's request to Emperor Xingyue, Emperor Xingyue also agreed to the request.
To Emperor Xingyue, the other few people were all minor characters, and the only person he wanted to see was Lin Feng.
After Ace and others left, Lin Feng followed the civil servant Smart and came to the underground of Xingyue Palace.
Although it is an underground building, it has a ceiling like the starry sky.
If he hadn't been going down all the way, Lin Feng would even have thought that he was still on the ground, with the night sky above his head.
The underground palace is surrounded by metal walls engraved with runes. In the middle is a square stone platform with a silver river flowing around it.
After Lin Feng came here, Smart left. He could clearly feel that there was a barrier that isolated him from the outside world.
At this time, Emperor Xingyue's attire was different from the emperor seen in the hall before. He was wearing a loose robe and holding a wooden sword in his hand, which hung naturally.
After Lin Feng came in, he turned around.
The wooden sword was raised upwards, and the more than three-meter-wide golden river surrounding the square platform was split into two.
If you look closely, you will find that the sword energy emitted by the wooden sword continuously separates the golden river without any sign of drying up.
Pretty awesome.
Lin Feng was standing on the steps leading to the stone platform. After seeing this scene, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Sometimes swordsmanship is indeed more pretentious than magic. I wonder if it is too late to learn swordsmanship halfway through.
"Lian Wood, you are braver than I thought as you come to this meeting alone." The Star-Moon Emperor waved at Lin Feng, motioning him to come over.
Lin Feng was not afraid and continued to move forward.
The two sword energies that separated the golden river were very stable, and there was not a trace of airflow in the middle. Just based on his ability to control the sword energy, the Star Moon Emperor must be stronger than the Sword Saint.
"Is Emperor Xingyue sleeping here?" Lin Feng looked around and asked jokingly.
"Smart people should not say stupid things. Let's get straight to the point." The Star-Moon Emperor lowered the wooden sword, and the broken golden river gathered together again.
"I don't know what Emperor Xingyue wants to hear. The eldest prince's affairs have nothing to do with me. If you want to cause trouble, please contact the Magic Tower. I am just a message delivery person." Lin Feng said.
"Heh," Star-Moon Emperor sneered, "Brady's death is just a small matter. Do you really not know why I only see you?"
"Oh?" Lin Feng was stunned, "Is he your biological son?"
Lin Feng knew that the imperial family was heartless and ungrateful, but he did not expect that these words coming from the mouth of Emperor Xingyue would be so cold.
That was his own son, and his death was just a trivial matter.
I have to say, you are really good at acting. You acted the anger in the hall so realistically. It's a pity that you didn't win the Best Actor Award.
"Brady is naturally my biological son. His death will not be in vain. I will definitely seek justice for him." said Emperor Xingyue.
"You want to use his death to put pressure on the Magic Tower?" Lin Feng said, "It seems like something you can do at your level. And then you can join forces with the Caesar Empire and let them make a fuss about Franky's death? Extort a large amount of compensation?"
Emperor Xingyue smiled slightly and said, "You are smarter than I thought. I asked you to come here not to listen to your analysis of my thoughts, but to hear what you want to say."
"I did want to tell you something once, and I also made a magic oath with Howling Moon Silver Wolf, but now I don't want to tell you." Lin Feng smiled and said.
"About the Moon Shadow Knights?" Star-Moon Emperor sneered, "Why don't you want to talk about it?"
"Because from the moment I stepped into here, you never wanted me to leave alive, if I guessed correctly." Lin Feng stared intently at the eyes of Emperor Xingyue. Any change in the other's emotions would not escape his eyes.
"You guessed right, but unfortunately, you got one thing wrong."
"what's up?"
"That's the business of the Moon Shadow Knights. I don't care at all. No matter what information they intercepted in the Caesar Empire, I don't care."
Looking at the expression on Emperor Xingyue's face, these words were a little beyond Lin Feng's expectations.
But it was this sentence that made Lin Feng realize something.
"Then I wonder what you care about, Emperor Xingyue? Let me guess, you want my life, so it must be something very important to me. I haven't been in the industry for very long. The most sensational thing was that I turned the church upside down with Caesar, and cooperated with the dragon clan to kill Pope Gabriel and prevent him from summoning the dead spirits from other worlds to descend on the magic continent."
Lin Feng paused, smiling: "You want to kill me, are you trying to help Gabriel get revenge? Or do you want me to shut up forever now that I know the real location of the forbidden island?! Or do you want to take that... stone from me?"
Hearing this, the expression on Emperor Xingyue's face, which had been calm till then, gradually froze.
