Chapter 806 - Funing (2/2)

The mute maid tried to chase after him and took a few steps forward. In the next second, she was shocked and coughed a little. With a look of disbelief on her face, she said, “I… I can talk now.”

THUMP. THUMP. THUMP.

She could hear heavy footsteps. The officers outside Funing Palace ran in after hearing the commotion.

“Your majesty?”

The officer in front looked at the mute maid and looked surprised. Then she said, “Did you not go off to look for the Grand Master?”

“I did. But I am back already.”

With her hands behind her back, the mute maid exuded a noble and elegant temperament from her entire body.

“Your majesty, you… you can talk now?”

The officer opened her eyes wide. Ever since her majesty received a terrible shock when she was ten, she had lost the ability to talk. Now, after nine years, her majesty could suddenly finally speak again. It was just unbelievable.

The other officers found it hard to believe as well and were all stunned.

The mute maid smiled and said, “I met a benefactor. He cured me. Right, call Grand Master Mother over. I have some things that I want to discuss with her.”

“Your majesty, I have some things that I want to discuss with you as well.”

At that moment, a burst of green smoke floated in from outside. The mute maid heard a beautiful voice. The cloud of green smoke turned into a person and appeared in front of the mute maid. It was a woman who looked to be in her thirties. She wore a white robe that touched the floor. With a sky crown on her head and a beautiful face, there was a charming aura exuding from her body.

After seeing the woman, the other officers prepared to take their leave.

“Grand Master Mother.” The mute maid greeted her happily.

“Funing, you can talk now?” Grand Master asked with astonishment. She thought she was hallucinating at first. She did not imagine Funing could speak again.

Funing nodded her head. Her clear eyes were full of joy, and she exclaimed, “Grand Master Mother, it was a man. He cured me.”

“A man?”

Suddenly, the look on Grand Master’s face sank. Then she said, “The reason I am here is to inform you about the man who invaded Baiyue Nation. According to General Zuomeng, this man teleported from another place, and his cultivation level is at the level of a Martial Emperor, at least.”

“A Martial Emperor?”

Funing recalled how Xiao Luo had flown across the sky with her earlier on. The corner of her lips curled up a little, and she grinned. “Seems like it must be him then.”

“Who is this ‘him’ you are referring to?”

“It is the man who cured me and gave me the ability to talk again,” Funing said.

“He was here just now?” Grand Master asked, shocked.

Funing nodded her head.

“To think that he came to the Royal Palace and left without a trace. Not even I noticed anything.”

The more she thought about it, the more worried the Grand Master was. She shouted out, “Guards, come in! Hurry and get in here!”

“Your majesty, Grand Master.” An officer rushed in quickly.

“Mobilize several troops and have them guard Funing Palace. Without my orders, not even a mosquito may enter,” Grand Master ordered.

“Understood.” The officer retreated after receiving the order.

“Grand Master Mother, surely there is no need for this?” asked Funing. She pouted and shook her head.

Grand Master glared at her sternly and said, “No need? Men are like tigers. They are like p
