946 The Fifth Map 2 (1/2)

After Jun Wu Xie left the Imperial Palace, Lord Meh Meh changed back to its tiny sheep form and not long after that, Lei Chen came over.

Before Lei Chen could say anything, Jun Wu Xie said: ”Dismiss the Imperial Guards around the Immortals' Loft.”

Lei Chen was stunned a moment before he recalled that the Emperor had ordered for the Imperial Guards to keep watch over the Immortals' Loft with Qiao Chu and the others still idling inside the Immortals' Loft inn. In just a few days, the world had changed for people in the Fire Country and mere hours later, the Emperor's Imperial Edict announcing his abdication was released.

”Sure. Little brother Jun, about the throne, can you think about it carefully once more?” Lei Chen agreed to Jun Xie's demand immediately, but he had not forgotten to continue to persuade him to reconsider.

However, Jun Wu Xie did not even look at him but just walked off on her own.

Very soon, the Imperial Guards surrounding the Immortals' Loft retreated. Qiao Chu and the others had not suffered much throughout those few days, but had only idled their time away inside the inn.

When they saw Jun Wu Xie return, Qiao Chu had immediately leapt to come right before her.

”How was it? Was it a success?”

Jun Wu Xie nodded and she handed the brocade box containing the human skin map to Hua Yao standing at the side.

With the addition of this map, they had a total of four in their possession. Towards the goal of eight maps, they were already halfway there!

With the addition of Jun Wu Xie to the companions, their speed at gathering the map had become very rapid. All of them firmly believed that it wouldn't be too far in the future that they would be able to find the other four maps, and be able to finally open up the long sealed entrance to the tomb!

”With Little Xie carrying out the task, things get done quick and good as expected! So, what are you planning to do next?” Qiao Chu asked with a big smile on his face. The aim they had come to the Fire Country for had been achieved and they would be setting forth on a brand new journey from here. Fei Yan had not found any clues on the locations of the other maps and they do not have a clear destination next.

”Let's return to the Zephyr Academy first.” Jun Wu Xie said expressionlessly.

Everyone smiled and nodded, immediately moving to pack their luggage, not wanting to stay at this place another minute longer.
