Chapter 1661: Chapter 1504: Yin Yang Inn 60

Li Yu felt his relaxed shoulders and thanked Qi Shuangshuang, saying: "Thank you, Shopkeeper. But if the soul of the Third Prince is truly trapped in the Imperial Palace, it could lead to major trouble."

Li Yu said this for a reason. The Imperial Palace was never a clean place; deaths were commonplace. If not for the protection of the Emperor’s Purple Qi, the palace would be the largest haunted house in the Mortal World.

However, the Dynasty’s fate is not always prosperous. When the Dynasty is nearing its end, and a change of the ruler is imminent, the protective Purple Qi begins to fade.

At such a time, lonely spirits, wild ghosts, and demons within the Imperial Palace will start to thrive because the Purple Qi can no longer suppress these evil spirits and demons.

If the soul of the Third Prince is not being repelled by the palace, there is only one reason: the current Dynasty’s fate is waning, the Purple Qi is weakening, which is why it cannot dispel the Third Prince’s soul.

Li Yu assumed the Dynasty’s fate was ending upon seeing the Third Prince’s soul not leave. Recently, Li Yu hasn’t been active in the Mortal World and is not very aware of the life of the common people under the current Dynasty.

During times of chaos, the common people’s lives are always the hardest. By just observing how the common people live, one can generally infer whether a dynasty’s fate is close to exhaustion.

Qi Shuangshuang blinked her eyes. A golden light flashed in her eyes, turning her pupils golden. At this moment, in Qi Shuangshuang’s eyes, the entire Imperial Palace was enveloped in purple aura, and there were no demons.

She blinked again, and the golden color in Qi Shuangshuang’s eyes faded. She glanced at Li Yu and said mildly: "The Purple Qi is strong. The Dynasty’s fate is still long-lasting. The issue should lie with the Third Prince himself."

Li Yu saw Qi Shuangshuang’s eyes and knew she had just used the Qi Observation Skill to understand the strength of the Purple Qi here.

Li Yu shrugged and said nothing further. Since they had already arrived, whatever was going on, they would find out by seeing it personally.

Qi Shuangshuang and Li Yu soon reached the place where the Third Prince’s soul was. It was truly easy to find. In the otherwise clean Imperial Palace, it was the only area where black Qi was surging, like a guiding signpost.

Bingchen Palace, this was once the residence of the Third Prince. Since the Third Prince had died, the Emperor had ordered it to be sealed off, forbidding anyone from entering.

When the Princes of the current Dynasty were minors, they lived with their mother concubines. After coming of age, they would leave the palace to establish their own residences. Apart from the Crown Prince, no Prince had their own palace within the Imperial Palace.

The Emperor favored the Third Prince, preparing a palace within the Imperial Palace for him to live in regularly so that he could frequently see his beloved third son.

But at this moment, Bingchen Palace was surrounded by black Qi. Qi Shuangshuang and Li Yu stood at the entrance of Bingchen Palace.

Qi Shuangshuang reached out her hand toward the palace door of Bingchen Palace. Her palm was quickly blocked; a ripple-like wave spread beneath her hand, like layers of ripples, yet it could not break through at all.

Li Yu, with a furrowed brow, said: "A Grudge Spirit’s Barrier, and so strong! Is there really a new ghost inside? Perhaps it’s a thousand-year-old grudge ghost?"

Qi Shuangshuang shook her head and didn’t speak. From the ripple on the barrier under her hand, she sensed a familiar power. This power did not seem like a Grudge Spirit’s, but rather, the power commonly used by people of the Underworld.

Qi Shuangshuang often interacted with people from the Underworld and was very familiar with their powers, because their cultivation techniques inclined toward coldness; whenever utilized, they invariably carried this cold sensation.
