"Since the Thirteenth Highness has spoken, how could I refuse to give you face? However, Violet Spirit is currently not in the Black River Water Palace. Even if I wanted to call for her, I would not be able to do so." Madam Ju frowned, looking troubled.
"She's not here?
Where did she go? "Han Li's heart sank and he immediately asked.
Lady Chrysanthemum bluntly said, "My Black River Water Palace has many cultivators that have pledged allegiance to us. They aren't forbidden from leaving. That seductive fox has also received special treatment from Lord Husband, allowing her to enter and leave the palace at will. How would I know where she went?"
"Madam Ju just said that before Senior Black River went into seclusion, he had you manage the affairs of the Black River Water Palace. You shouldn't be completely clueless as to where Violet Spirit went."
Han Li was worried about Violet Spirit's safety and Madam Ju was being rude again and again. Anger rose in his heart and he spoke in a deep voice.
"Who do you think you are? Out of respect for His Highness the Thirteenth Prince, I allowed a thief from the Immortal Realm to enter the Black River Water Palace. You dare to interrogate me again and again? The Black River Water Palace does not welcome evil guests like you. Scram!" Madam Chrysanthemum suddenly became hostile and waved her hands.
The walls on both sides of the hall buzzed and two thick rays of black light shot out. With lightning speed, they wrapped around Han Li's body and formed a black whirlpool.
A powerful teleportation force surged out from the whirlpool and wrapped around Han Li's body, preparing to throw him out.
Han Li frowned and his body glowed with a golden light. The Wheel of Truth appeared behind him and rapidly rotated.
Countless golden ripples swarmed out from the Wheel of Truth. They spread out in an instant and enveloped the black vortex.
The black whirlpool immediately froze and was sealed in place.
Madam Ju's expression changed and she quickly formed a hand seal to control the black whirlpool.
However, no matter how she tried, the black whirlpool wouldn't budge.
"Madam Ju, I have no intention of making things difficult for you. I only ask that you tell me where Violet Spirit is. I will be very grateful." Han Li calmed himself and cupped his hands.
"Hmph!
Brat, don't be arrogant. Don't think that I can't do anything to you. Black River Water Palace, support me! "
Madam Chrysanthemum let out a delicate shout and muttered something. Her two hands formed a series of hand seals, and then she raised her hand.
"Rumble!" With a loud rumble, the entire Black River Palace began to tremble. Countless rays of black light came from the void and gathered in Madam Chrysanthemum's palm, turning into a phantom of the Black River Palace that was several feet tall.
"This is..." Han Li's pupils shrank upon seeing this.
Without waiting for him to do anything, Madam Chrysanthemum pushed with her hands. The Black River Palace flew out and collided with the golden ripples around Han Li.
With a "chi la" sound, the golden ripples around his body were torn apart like paper paste.
The black vortex immediately returned to normal and spun crazily like a huge black mouth, swallowing Han Li.
His vision blurred, and the next moment, he found himself outside the Black River Water Palace.
Han Li frowned. The time dao pattern on the Wheel of Truth had only recovered a small portion, and it couldn't unleash much of its power.
But no matter what, since Violet Spirit was in the Black River Water Palace, he had no way out.
He took a deep breath, and purple light burst out from his eyes. He looked at the black light around the Black River Water Palace.
At the same time, golden light flashed on Han Li's body, and the Wheel of Truth spun rapidly again. Countless golden ripples surged out and covered the black light.
"Dao friend Li, you really are here." At this moment, a gentle voice came from the side.
Han Li was startled, and he turned around to see a purple figure standing not far away. It was Shi Pokong.
"Third Highness, why are you here?" Han Li stopped and asked in surprise.
Shi Pokong revealed a faint smile, and just as he was about to speak, the void around him suddenly fluctuated. Then, a large amount of black light appeared out of nowhere, forming a black vortex.
The black vortex didn't last for long, and it immediately disappeared. Shi Pokong's figure flashed out, and it seemed that he had been thrown out by Madam Ju.
"Third Brother, why are you here?" He looked at Shi Pokong with surprise.
"I heard that the two of you left Yang Ye City and came to the Black Water Domain. I guessed that you came to the Black River Water Palace for Fairy Violet Spirit.
Dao friend Weeping Soul's matter hasn't been resolved yet, and I feel ashamed. This time, Dao friend Li wants to save Violet Spirit, and I have to do my part no matter what. That's why I came here immediately. "Shi Pokong said apologetically.
"That's great! With Third Brother here, we can definitely save Dao friend Violet Spirit. Don't worry, Dao friend Li." Shi Pokong was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Third Highness." Han Li was filled with gratitude, and he cupped his hands in thanks.
"What's the situation now?
Your mission doesn't seem to be going smoothly. "Shi Pokong waved his hand and asked again.
Han Li revealed a bitter smile and carefully recounted what happened in the Black Water Palace.
"Madam Ju is Master Black River's dao companion. Her cultivation is quite high, but she isn't very magnanimous. Moreover, she likes to be jealous. I presume that Dao friend Violet Spirit is … highly regarded by Master Black River, and Madam Ju is jealous. Since you are Violet Spirit's good friend, Madam Ju hates the house and its crow, so she isn't willing to tell you about Violet Spirit's current situation."
"I've already guessed this. Regardless of whether she's willing or not, I will force her to tell me where Violet Spirit is at all costs." A cold glint flashed in Han Li's eyes, and golden light shone from his body once again.
Although Violet Spirit wasn't his dao companion, she held a special place in his heart, just like Nangong Wan.
It wouldn't have mattered if he didn't know, but now that he knew that she was in danger, he couldn't just sit by and do nothing.
"Fellow Daoist Li, I can understand your eagerness to save your friend, but it's very unwise to use brute force to solve this matter.
Master Black River is a Grand Celestial Realm cultivator. Although he isn't in his cave residence right now, I'm afraid you'll be in a lot of trouble if he finds out. "Shi Pokong hurriedly stopped Han Li and said.
"I also know that this is very unwise, but there's no other way." Han Li frowned.
"If Fellow Daoist Li is willing to trust me," Shi Pokong said sincerely, "then leave this matter to me. I'm currently in a cooperative relationship with Master Black River, and Madam Chrysanthemum is quite wary of me. If I ask her, she might relent."
"That's right. Let Third Brother ask her. If it really doesn't work, then we'll think of another way." Shi Pokong also said.
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you, Your Highness." Han Li pondered for a moment before cupping his hands.
"You two retreat for now." Shi Pokong pondered for a moment before saying to Han Li and Nangong Wan.
Han Li and Shi Pokong glanced at each other before flying away. Their figures quickly disappeared into the distance.
Shi Pokong stood on the spot for a moment before flying towards the Black River Palace.
Han Li and Shi Chuankong glanced at each other before retreating far into the distance.
Han Li's eyes flickered with purple light as he stared unblinkingly in the direction of the Black River Palace.
Shi Pokong flipped his hand and took out a blue talisman. With a wave of his hand, the talisman disappeared into the black light barrier around the Black River Palace.
A moment later, the black light barrier flickered and cracked open an entrance. Shi Pokong's figure immediately flew into it.
Seeing this scene, Han Li secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"Fellow Daoist Li, don't worry. Third Brother's wisdom is boundless, and his tongue is unparalleled. With him, we'll definitely be able to find out Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit's whereabouts." Shi Pokong said with a smile.
"I hope so." Han Li sighed and said.
The two quietly waited here. Time slowly passed, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed.
There was no movement from the Black River Palace. Han Li's expression was still calm, but Shi Pokong was a little restless. He wanted to say something many times, but when he saw Han Li's unsightly expression, he forcefully swallowed his words.
But at this moment, the black light barrier suddenly flickered again, revealing a passage.
Shi Pokong flew out and headed towards the two of them. Very quickly, he arrived near them.
Seeing this, Han Li and Shi Pokong hurried to greet him.
"Third Prince, how was it?" Han Li asked.
"Fortunately, I didn't disappoint you. I've already found out about Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit's situation in the Black River Palace, as well as her current location." Shi Pokong said with a faint smile.
When Han Li heard this, he rejoiced and relaxed his tense heart.
"Haha, didn't I say that there's nothing that Third Brother can't do?" Shi Pokong laughed.
"Thank you, Third Prince. May I ask how Violet Spirit is doing after she came to the Black River Palace?" Han Li cupped his hands towards Shi Pokong and asked.
"After Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit ascended to the Holy Region, Master Black River took a fancy to her appearance and aptitude. He wanted to take her in as a concubine. However, Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit's personality was unyielding and she would rather die than submit. Master Black River didn't want to use force, and he was in a hurry to go into seclusion at the time, so he handed Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit to someone else." Shi Pokong took a deep look at Han Li and slowly said.
Han Li's heart relaxed when he heard this.
"That's great. Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit hasn't been humiliated. Her chastity is still intact. You can rest assured." Shi Pokong forcefully patted Han Li's shoulder and said.
"Thirteenth Brother, what are you talking about?" Shi Pokong glared at Shi Pokong and reprimanded.
Shi Pokong realized that he had said the wrong thing and scratched his head awkwardly.
"Thirteenth Prince is right. However, Violet Spirit was alone. Even if something happened, it wasn't her fault.
What happened after that? Is Violet Spirit really not in the Black River Palace? "Han Li said frankly.
"After Master Black River went into seclusion, Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit tried to escape from the Black River Palace. Not only did Madam Ju not stop her, she even secretly let her go. Therefore, Violet Spirit is indeed not in the Black River Palace." Shi Pokong sighed and said.
"That makes things easier. Although the Holy Region is huge, it isn't difficult for me to find someone.
Brother Li, don't worry. I'll go back and make the arrangements … "Shi Pokong smiled. However, before he could finish his sentence, he seemed to notice that something was amiss and stopped.
At this moment, Han Li furrowed his brows once again.
Madam Ju naturally wanted Violet Spirit to leave the Black River Palace as soon as possible. Therefore, she secretly let her go so that when Master Black River came out of seclusion in the future, he wouldn't be able to blame her.
However, Madam Ju certainly wouldn't let Violet Spirit leave so easily, right?
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Li has also guessed it. Although Madam Ju didn't stop Violet Spirit, she sent people to capture her not long after she left the Black River Palace and banish her to the Jilin Void Realm." Shi Pokong glanced at Han Li and shook his head.
