Chapter 414: Scheming Male Protagonist 1

Su Luo curiously asked Nangong Liuyun, “Why aren’t you going in? It’s not like you to pave the way for others.”

Based on her understanding of Nangong Liuyun, this guy would absolutely never let himself suffer even the slightest loss.

Nangong Liuyun's peerlessly handsome face was overflowing with a wickedly charming smile: “Wait a little longer. I’ll take you to watch a good show shortly. I guarantee you’ll love it.”

Just now, when the Seal was being lifted, he sensed that something inside was amiss, so he wasn't in a hurry to enter.

“Oh? Could it be that inside… Sigh, letting them charge in for you, you’re too scheming!” Su Luo accused him, but then couldn't help but laugh.

The poor Crown Prince, he gets schemed against by Nangong Liuyun everywhere he goes.

He thought rushing in would give him an advantage, but whether that advantage is easy to seize, only he himself would know.

Thinking of this, Su Luo couldn't help but feel some sympathy for this extremely resilient Crown Prince Your Highness, who constantly fights and constantly fails.

Over all these years, struggling in Nangong Liuyun's palm yet still managing to live healthily until now, it was incredibly difficult for him. Just thinking about it made her feel pity.

Nangong Liuyun flicked her smooth forehead, looking both annoyed and amused: “Is the little girl badmouthing This King again?”

“How could I?” Su Luo firmly denied it, her face full of righteousness, saying seriously, “I was praising you in my heart! How can you slander me like this?”

Nangong Liuyun gently stroked her black hair, smiling cunningly like a fox: “Praising This King is nothing to be ashamed of. Just say it out loud, why mumble it in your heart? Come on, say a few words for This King to hear.”

Was Su Luo really praising him? If she spoke her true thoughts, she would definitely make him angry enough to explode.

So she just chuckled lightly, not playing along, and cleverly changed the subject: “How long has it been? Why is there no sound inside at all? They haven't really been wiped out, have they?”

Nangong Liuyun's brow twitched into a smile, his eyes filled with deep indulgence. He took Su Luo's hand: “The time should be about right. Let's go in and watch the show.”

Su Luo followed Nangong Liuyun through the Jade Gate. A stone chamber of considerable size appeared before her, and the surrounding space was vast, like an independent palace hall, with rows of stone chambers lined up inside.

At this moment, a small stone chamber appeared before them, inscribed with the characters “Manual Chamber.”

The door was slightly ajar and opened with a push.

A faint mist permeated the stone chamber, and visibility was very low. Even Su Luo could only see the scene within a ten-square-meter radius around her.

Inside the stone chamber, against the walls, stood stacks of Huanglihua Wood bookshelves. Books were placed sparsely on the shelves, and various titles were written on labels attached to the books.

The center of the stone chamber was empty, save for a single stone platform.

“Huh, where are Bei Chen and the others?” Su Luo asked, puzzled.

Didn't everyone come here for the secret manuals? Why couldn't they be seen inside the Manual Chamber?

A flicker of solemnity crossed Nangong Liuyun's face, but a careless smile still hung on his lips: “Look up.”

Su Luo followed Nangong Liuyun's instruction and looked up, letting out a surprised gasp: “Ah—”

Hanging above the stone chamber were transparent, balloon-shaped objects. Su Luo could clearly see that each spherical object contained a person.
