Chapter 523 (2/2)

However, Ye Lang suddenly felt like it was very much possible, he had a feeling. That was why he thought he should leave first.

“Hey, are you really not going to the party?” asked Coldblood Five.

“Nope, I won’t get much out of the party anyway, especially if it turns out like the previous party at the Li Residence. Plus I’ll risk falling into Zhao Yarou’s traps, it’s not worth it at all,”analyzed Ye Lang with a shake of his head.

“Yeah, I guess you’re right. It’s not worth it,” said Coldblood Five.

“Let’s go, we should attend an auction today, then…” When Ye Lang was still listing his plans for the day, a line of people arrived. His plans were ruined.

After he confirmed who they were, there was no need to list out his plans, for another person had already dictated how his day would go.

“Oh fuck, Little Five, look at how crazy this Zhao Yarou is! I can’t believe she sent people here THIS early!” cursed Ye Lang in a low voice. This line of people was from the palace, they were Zhao Yarou’s people. She had sent her men to block off the place so Ye Lang would not be able to slip away.

Even a person as slow as Ye Lang would start to suspect that Zhao Yarou had already figured out who he was. That must be why she sent her men to stop him from leaving.

At the same time, the palace was now a huge, huge trap to Ye Lang. If he entered, he could be trapped inside!

That was why he had to make a decision now. Should he still enter the palace or run away, shaking these people off?

“I want to go see Li Yue, you people don’t have to follow me.”

No matter what, Ye Lang wanted to shake these people off and meet Li Yue first. He wanted to see if he could get Li Yue to show him the Tianji Armour first, this might be his last chance.

“Apologies, Mr Fox, the empress has given orders to follow you. Her Majesty said we have to follow you even if you visit the washroom,” explained the leader.

“Fuck, this is an infringement of basic human rights!” Ye Lang was furious. Follow him to the toilet too? This was ridiculous!

“Apologies, I do not know what that means. However, we have to obey the empress’ orders, please understand.”

“Just listen to what he says. He’s powerful,” came Coldblood Five’s advice in his ear.

“I know, I’ve seen him before. He’s one of the top ten masters of the empire. I can’t believe Zhao Yarou thinks I’m THAT good, to send a person like him to watch me,” came Ye Lang’s reply.

Ye Lang was more familiar about the royal matters of the Soaring Sky Empire than most people. He had personally met many people within the palace.

“I think Zhao Yarou knows who you are…”

“I don’t think so, we were not that close… Whatever, so what if she finds out? In a place like this Imperial City, I’ll leave when I want too. Even the palace cannot trap me,” shrugged Ye Lang.

He was not bragging, for he was sure it was true. He was too familiar with this area, he knew all the best places to hide.
