Leng Jun was very surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood. Although it had been a few days since he last defeated Yan Nantian, there were still many people who were talking about it. And since he had infiltrated the Divine Palace this time, he had not disguised his face, so it was natural for others to recognize him. The reason the opponent retracted his sword at such a critical moment ought to be because he recognized that he wasn't a guard within the Divine Palace.

Thinking about that, Leng Jun cupped his fists and said: ”That's right, I am Leng Jun, what is your name?”

The man took off the veil covering his face, revealing a handsome face. The person looked young, at least not older than Leng Jun. Furthermore, he was petite and quick. Before taking down the black veil, Leng Jun almost thought that he was a woman.

”I am Yun Jian from Xi Hui Sect!”

”So it's Brother Yun. I wonder what you sneaked into the Divine Palace late at night for. Aren't you afraid of being caught by others, and being implicated by your esteemed sect?”

”This …”

With a face full of shame and helplessness, Yun Jian asked, ”Brother Leng, why would you appear within the Divine Palace? Could it be …”

Leng Jun's face reddened, he was already considered famous now, and was even known as the head of a sect. If people knew that he did things like stealing chickens and dogs in the middle of the night, he would lose face if word of this got out.

Leng Jun coughed dryly a few times, then said: ”It's nothing. Divine Officer Commander Andi Xiu wants me to be the commander of Divine Martial City, so I wanted to say that before taking office, I need to familiarize myself with the environment of Divine Martial City.”

”This means that Brother Leng should be very familiar with Divine Palace. Then can Brother Leng tell me the topography of Divine Palace? If Brother Leng is willing to help, then Yun Jian will naturally return the favor. ”

Leng Jun's face looked a little awkward, because that was only a casual reason he found out. Right now, Yun Jian was asking him about the terrain of his Divine Palace, so he naturally didn't know anything about it.

Therefore, Leng Jun quickly changed the topic, and asked: ”Brother Yun, you still haven't told me what is the purpose of your nocturnal exploration of Divine Palace. If it's related to God Clan, this humble one cannot stand idly by and watch. ”

Yun Jian's body trembled because he had already believed Leng Jun's words. Leng Jun was someone who could defeat Yan Nantian, so it was natural for the Divine King to want to recruit him. If the other party wanted to capture him, then would he have the confidence to win against the person who defeated the strongest Sect Master? The answer was obvious. Of course, it was impossible.

Thinking about it, Yun Jian clenched his teeth and decided to tell Leng Jun the whole story, hoping that the other party would be willing to help him.

Yun Jian cleared his throat, then asked: ”Brother Leng, do you know anything about the elites entering the palace?”

Leng Jun asked: ”Brother Yun, do you mean the matter of selecting the appropriate women of various places to enter the Divine Palace every year and become their servants?”

Yun Jian nodded and said, ”That's right! I originally had a wife who was already engaged, but who would have thought that I would encounter a female elective entering the Divine Palace. My fiancée, because she hadn't even left the pavilion yet, was forcefully recruited into the palace. Because I have always been in the Western Hui Sect, I only found out about this after a few months. In order to save my fiancée, I entered the palace late at night. However, I've been here a few times already, but I still can't find the place where Soo Soo lives. So, may I trouble Brother Leng to tell me where the Elementary Maiden Palace is located? Yun Jian is extremely grateful. ”

Leng Jun was deeply moved when he saw Yun Jian challenge the Divine Palace in order to save his fiancee.

”Brother Yun, our Divine Palace is heavily guarded and we have three great sword gods overseeing the battle. I advise you not to go again.”

Hearing Leng Jun's words, Yun Jian said with a face of disdain: ”I won't hide it from you, Brother Leng. I have already visited this Divine Palace several times. It's just that my Divine Palace is too great, so I couldn't find my fiancee, Wan'er. As for the protection of the Divine Palace, it isn't as tight as the rumors say. ”
