Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation, I became a role model of righteousness

Chapter 293 Xu Chenggong Enters the Palace

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Master has entered the palace."

As soon as Xu Cheng'an entered the palace, a eunuch told the Emperor of Nangan, Emperor Mingguang, about his entry into the palace.

When Emperor Mingguang heard this, he paused while reviewing the memorials and looked up at the eunuch who delivered the news.

"The Imperial Master has entered the palace? In that case, follow me to welcome the Imperial Master."

Emperor Mingguang, along with a group of palace maids and eunuchs, waited outside the Taiji Hall, waiting for the imperial teacher to arrive.

Twenty minutes later, the sedan chair carrying Xu Chengan finally arrived outside the Taiji Hall.

As soon as they saw the imperial teacher get off the sedan chair, the palace maids and eunuchs immediately knelt on the ground.

Even Emperor Mingguang was waiting by the side with a respectful look on his face, bowing slightly.

Emperor Mingguang: "National Master."

"Your Majesty, you don't need to accompany me. I am just here to take a stroll in the palace today. Your Majesty, please go and do whatever you want."

Xu Cheng'an glanced at Emperor Mingguang, with no sadness or joy in his eyes, and he did not take this mortal emperor seriously at all.

"This..." Emperor Mingguang hesitated, not knowing whether he should leave.

"No need to follow, let's all go." After saying that, regardless of Emperor Mingguang's reaction, he took the two Wanfa Sect disciples and walked towards the harem.

After Xu Cheng'an walked away, the chief eunuch beside Emperor Mingguang stepped forward cautiously.

"Your Majesty, do you need to send someone to follow the Imperial Master?"

"No need. Since the Imperial Master is interested in touring the palace, how can I ruin his interest?"

Emperor Mingguang shook his head, but in the end he did not ask anyone to follow him, nor did he say anything dissatisfied.

Emperor Mingguang knew how sharp the ears of those immortal cultivators were.

Not to mention that the Imperial Master is still in the palace, even if he wasn't there, he wouldn't dare say a word against him for fear of being heard.

If he offends the imperial teacher, it would be hard to say whether he can continue to be the emperor.

The eunuch hesitated and asked, "Can I send someone to inform the ladies in the palace? What if they don't know that the Imperial Master is here to visit..."

"Go." Emperor Mingguang hesitated for a moment, but still gave the order.

"Yes, I'll do it right away." After the eunuch left, Emperor Mingguang also left.

He had to go back and think carefully about why the imperial teacher came this time. Could it be that he, the emperor, had done something wrong?

Is it because the imperial concubine is pregnant?
This shouldn't be the case. The imperial preceptor has always been indifferent to worldly affairs. How could he make a special trip to the palace just because a concubine is pregnant?
Emperor Mingguang racked his brains to figure out the purpose of the imperial teacher but could not, and could only worry about it alone.

At this time, the national teacher Xu Chengan was walking in the harem with two disciples of the Wanfa Sect.

Originally, outsiders were not allowed to enter the harem, but Xu Chengan was the imperial teacher.

There is no place in this palace that he cannot go.

Even if he wanted to enter the royal forbidden area, the emperor had to do it obediently, and no ministers in the court would dare to object.

No one has the courage to question or challenge the immortal cultivators.

"Uncle Xu, we have looked everywhere in this palace and there is nothing suspicious.

It seems that what Master Feng said may not be credible. That so-called Gui clan spy is not here at all."

The two disciples following Xu Chengan, one named Zhu Tao and the other named Li Lu, were both in the Foundation Establishment Stage. They were also quite old, and their faces showed traces of time.

Zhu Tao and Li Lu are the two strongest people in the Imperial Master's Mansion besides Xu Chengan.

In addition to these two, there are four disciples in the Qi Refining Stage.

The strength of these people is very average. They heard that the person stationed here is Xu Chengan, who is in the Nascent Soul stage, so they specially applied to be transferred here.

They wanted to have a chance to follow Xu Chengan. If they could get a word or two of advice from him, maybe they could make further progress. After all, it was not easy to find a chance to follow a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Among these people, Zhu Tao and Li Lu are the two who have been with Xu Chengan for the longest time.

Because of their cultivation level, the two of them were more valued by Xu Chengan, and any daily chores were basically handed over to them.

Of course, he would occasionally give some benefits to the two of them.

Because of this, the two of them have always been very dedicated in their work with Xu Chengan and never dared to slack off.

They had already heard about the purpose of Feng Jing and others coming to Nan'an Country this time.

However, the two of them had the same idea as Xu Chengan. They didn't think that the spy from the Gui clan would specifically come to a mortal country.

It would be great if I could just go back to the Gui tribe during this time.

What could a mortal country have that could be coveted by the Gui people?

Although they thought so, since Xu Chengan wanted to visit the palace, the two of them certainly did not dare to complain.

He followed him into the palace obediently, and from time to time he used his spiritual sense to scan the entire palace, looking for anyone who was suspected to be a spies of the Gui clan.

"Do you think that the Gui clan spy is so easy to find? If he could really be found so easily by the two of you, he would not have been able to hide in the Wanfa Sect for several years."

Xu Chengan said calmly.

"Uncle Xu is right. We two thought it was too simple." The two of them quickly admitted their mistakes.

"Forget it. This is not your fault." He had not expected the two little foundation-building cultivators to play any role in discovering the spies of the Gui clan.

He took action personally, releasing his spiritual sense to cover the entire palace.

After a while, he opened his eyes and retracted all his scattered spiritual awareness.

"Nothing, I don't know if the Gui tribe hid too deep, or if they really aren't here.

As expected, if you want to identify the Gui people, you can’t just rely on your spiritual sense.”

Xu Chengan also knew that it was not reliable to identify the Gui people solely by relying on spiritual sense.

But he had no better solution.

There is a magic weapon in the sect that can be used to identify the Gui people, but he does not have that magic weapon.

All he could do was to take a quick look relying on his spiritual sense.

Even if something really happened later, he could use this as an excuse to report to his superiors.

This was the purpose of his special trip to the palace.

"Then what about us..." Zhu Tao looked at Xu Chengan and asked hesitantly.

"Let's go back to the Imperial Master's Mansion first. Feng Jing and the others won't let it go like this. They will definitely go to the palace.

Since they said the Gui clan spies are here, let them find them themselves."

Xu Chengan plans to leave.

"Do we need to greet Emperor Mingguang first and tell him that disciples from the Wanfa Sect will be coming?" Li Lu asked.

Xu Chengan thought for a moment and shook his head, "No need, Feng Jing has his own arrangements. If we interfere, what if something goes wrong and they blame us for it?"

He sneered. He had done this kind of thing before and didn't want to give others the opportunity to shift the blame to him.

Since Xu Chengan said so, Zhu Tao and Li Lu naturally agreed.

When Concubine Chen heard the palace maid come to report that the Imperial Master and others had already left the palace, she put down her hair comb and dismissed all the palace maids in the room.

"Xu Chengan made this special trip. Did he discover something?"

"Absolutely impossible." A voice sounded. It was the voice of the spy from the Gui clan, but only the voice was heard but the person was not seen.
