Chapter 671 Terrorist Attack on the Star Luo Imperial Palace
"Nanxiao, can't this experimental sample really not be left with me? I'm willing to be your assistant for free for three years!"
The owner of the highest laboratory of Juxingtang, Wenyue Douluo, was clinging tightly to Ye Nanxiao, hanging on his waist, being dragged forward.
"This is just an experimental machine! Didn't you see the blueprints? Can't you make it yourself?" Ye Nanxiao tried to shake off Old Luo's hands, which were wrapped around his right arm, but found that he couldn't move them.
"The materials used in this experimental machine are worth several years' salary of mine! Do you think I'm rich?" Old Luo said irritably.
"You have no money? If you have no money, ask His Majesty! His Majesty definitely has money!" Unable to persuade him, Ye Nanxiao simply sat down on the spot, holding the storage ring in his left arm. He then changed the length of his clone's arm and retrieved the spatial teleporter.
The finished product can be sold to the Star Luo Empire, but the experimental machine cannot remain here.
Many experimental ideas and core magic array concepts are contained in this experimental machine, which is the most important thing.
"His Majesty doesn't have much money either! He's already used up his private treasury to support the numerous experiments conducted by Juxingtang, and the national treasury is also used to maintain the operation of the empire. His Majesty is probably even poorer than I am now!" Old Luo said with a mournful face.
The Star Luo Empire is indeed a wealthy empire, but a huge money-burning machine like the Gathering Star Hall cannot completely occupy the majority of the national treasury's expenditures, since the empire needs money in various places.
However, Xu Jiawei was unwilling to let the gap in soul tool technology be widened by the Sun Moon Empire. In addition, the Sun Moon Empire's intention to release news about the new Mingde Hall a while ago made him overly worried, which caused Juxing Hall to take a bit too big a step, with a large number of experimental projects being carried out at the same time.
After listening, Ye Nanxiao suddenly discovered in Xiao Ye No. 1's memory that Xu Jiawei had sought help from Yingliu many times, and there were still two IOUs from Xu Jiawei lying in Yingliu's headquarters.
"So many things happened while I was away?" Ye Nanxiao touched his smooth chin. He had indeed left Little Ye No. 1 in Xingluo for a long time. He was busy with other things and rarely paid attention to the affairs of Yingliu. It was all up to Feng Shiyi to take care of things.
"Why don't you go back and ask your original self if you can come and help?" Old Luo looked at Ye Nanxiao with anticipation, every wrinkle on his old face trying to bloom.
Liang Wei and Shi Wei stood like two statues, squatting beside the space teleporter, their gazes fixed on it.
"Let me catch my breath, this is too much information." Ye Nanxiao pushed Luo Lao away, formed a hand seal, and slowly closed his eyes.
Having received half a promise from Ye Nanxiao, Elder Luo stopped arguing and went to continue his research by the space teleporter.
The time that Xiao Ye No. 1 had been stored was too long, and the memory stream it possessed was too much for Ye Nanxiao to receive instantly; he could only download and examine it slowly.
A flood of memories, accompanied by a cacophony of sounds, imprinted on Ye Nanxiao's mind. Scenes and images flashed rapidly before his eyes, making Ye Nanxiao feel somewhat disoriented.
The various developments of Shadow Stream, the covert obstruction by aristocratic families, the pitiful people struggling to survive amidst the arrogance and unreasonable behavior of aristocratic scions, the assassinations and the bombing counterattacks by Little Ye No. 1—all played out in Ye Nanxiao's mind like an extremely long movie. The only drawback was that the sound was too compressed, giving Ye Nanxiao the feeling of watching a documentary about his own life.
Although he wasn't used to it at first, Ye Nanxiao got used to this way of receiving memories after a while, and even enjoyed reading it as his own biography.
"Wow, I can actually look this cool? Number One even spontaneously decided to try a set of Bajiquan!"
"Hmm? Both Ao has two 'Hum and Ha' generals, and Number One has three madmen? Zhang San, Li Si, and Wang Wu?"
"Wang Wu, A-Wu, is this kid the Shadow Stream manager that Number One found for me?"
In Xiao Ye No. 1's memory, Wang Wu, whom he named, had a simple and clean identity. He was an orphan who grew up relying on the kindness of others. He finally managed to raise his cultivation to the Soul Sect level and got the opportunity to join the city patrol, where he was appreciated by his superiors.
Wang Wu, who should have had a bright future, helped a commoner in a case where a nobleman abducted a woman in the street, leading to the nobleman's imprisonment and thus offending the nobleman's powerful family.
This lowly constable, who tried to uphold justice when he saw nobles causing trouble, was naturally dealt with secretly and imprisoned on trumped-up charges. Even those he tried to protect would only suffer a more tragic end.
The process of Xiao Ye No. 1 subduing Wang Wu was also very simple: he led him to retaliate in kind and used the same methods to wipe out that evil noble family.
"The third candidate has been found. Of the four great empires, only the Douling Empire remains." Ye Nanxiao murmured to himself.
The next moment, Ye Nanxiao, who was absorbing the memories, keenly felt the ground beneath him shaking.
He knew very well how excellent the explosion laboratory of Juxingtang was, so this tremor must not have come from inside Juxingtang, but from outside Juxingtang.
Outside Juxing Hall is Xingluo Imperial Palace!
Ye Nanxiao instantly interrupted the memory reception, and a suit of frost armor instantly appeared on his body.
"Elder Luo! What happened?" Ye Nanxiao walked out of Elder Luo's laboratory, and the Soul Masters in the hall outside were already in a panic.
Two crescent-shaped ghostly scythes hovered behind Elder Luo, his expression unusually solemn. He glanced at Ye Nanxiao and said gravely, "The imperial palace has been invaded!"
Ye Nanxiao was shocked. Had the Star Luo Imperial Palace been invaded?
"What can I do?"
With a somber expression, Elder Luo looked up at the ceiling and slowly said, "I need to guard the Gathering Star Hall. This is the culmination of the efforts of successive emperors, and it cannot be allowed to fail. They are also the future hope of the empire. The main gate of the Gathering Star Hall has been locked by defensive mechanisms, but there is a secret passage in my laboratory!"
"The Star-Shattering Hammer and his men were on a mission for the Emperor, and they were caught while traveling. They never expected that news of the shortage of manpower within the palace would lead to their arrest. Now there's no time to investigate whether a traitor within the palace leaked the information!"
"Nanxiao, please!"
Ye Nanxiao's expression hardened. He understood what Elder Luo meant. He immediately turned around and walked back to the laboratory, opening the long-sealed secret passage according to Elder Luo's instructions.
"Who on earth would dare to attack the Star Luo Imperial Palace? How could they be so audacious?"
Without time to think, Ye Nanxiao, carrying a level-six flying soul tool, shot out of the secret passage like a rocket.
In the back garden of Xingluo Imperial Palace, a small whirlpool suddenly appeared in a pond, and then a blue figure rushed out.
"Damn it, Xu Jiawei has the passageways all inside his harem!"
Ye Nanxiao instantly condensed and froze the water droplets on his body, gripped the ice blade in his right hand, and rushed towards the direction from which he sensed the intense soul power fluctuations.
Along the way, there were many flustered women and concubines. These palace maids and imperial concubines never imagined that the palace had been invaded.
Ye Nanxiao's pupils dilated violently. Below, in the palace, palace maids were behaving strangely, running stiffly as they chased after the fleeing palace maids and imperial concubines. When they caught up, they pounced on them and tore at them. From the mouths of these palace maids emerged several extremely ugly, long-bodied worms, their sharp mandibles biting into chunks of flesh.
Any palace maid who is parasitized by these strange insects will turn into a slow-moving zombie in a short period of time.
"Damn it! It's an evil spirit master!"
Such cruel methods, using flesh and blood to strengthen themselves, point to the evil soul master as the culprit who invaded the Star Luo Imperial Palace.
Ye Nanxiao conjured a large block of ice beneath him, flipped himself down, and used it as a springboard to propel himself forward with a burst of energy.

With the powerful propulsion of the level six soul tool, Ye Nanxiao instantly transformed into a spinning top, slaying the palace maids parasitized by the strange insects on the palace path one by one, freezing them into dust and scattering them.
Some palace maids with some ability tried their best to protect their mistress, but they couldn't stop the increasing number of parasitized maids from pressing in.
Just when they were about to be overwhelmed, a dazzling ice blade flashed past their eyes, piercing several palace maids who had turned into zombies into a string of candied hawthorns.
Stomping on a monstrous insect that was trying to escape, Ye Nanxiao drew his ice blade and took out a large number of healing pills from his ring, handing them to the leading female official. "Quickly, find a place to hide!"
After saying that, Ye Nanxiao drew his sword and activated his flying soul tool to continue clearing the strange insects in the back garden.
The leading female official immediately stepped forward and cried out, "My lord! Please save Her Majesty the Empress!"
Ye Nanxiao was startled. Could the evil soul master's target be the Empress?
"lead the way!"
"Your Majesty! Let's go quickly!"
The female official, with eight spirit rings floating behind her, crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
No sooner had she finished speaking than the female official had her head stomped on by an old man dressed in beggar's clothes with an ugly face.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a touching master-servant relationship!"
Beside the ugly old man, a young man in white robes with a scholarly appearance gracefully landed, holding a pure white folding fan in his hand. He opened it to cover his mouth and said, "You better keep an eye on her, don't let this woman get angry and self-destruct!"
The ugly old man spat, pulled out a few strange insects from his pocket, and threw them at the female official's head.
The strange insect's sharp breath instantly bit into the back of the female official's head.
"You two hurry up, or those old geezers outside will come after you!"
After the two revealed themselves, a green head resembling a water monkey slowly rose from the pond not far away.
"Alright, you old monster, you can have all of these people, but the Empress is for me!" The man in white looked at the elegant and graceful woman opposite him, who was being protected by several female officials, his eyes filled with greed.
"Hmph, you idiot with only your lower body in your head. Since you don't want so many beautiful bodies, then I'll gladly accept them!" The old monster sneered, pushing out his hands, and a large number of monster worms crawled out from his sleeves.
"Your Majesty, run!" Several female officials exchanged glances, then each struck their own heart with a palm, their bodies radiating fiery soul power.
Their queen, the current empress of Xingluo, calmly looked at the three titled Douluo-level evil soul masters standing opposite her.
"My husband hasn't even left, and you want me to be a deserter?"
Empress Xingluo tore open her palace dress, tied the strips of cloth around her waist, and summoned her martial spirit, with eight spirit rings flying behind her.
"Throughout history, no empress of Xingluo has ever abandoned her emperor and fled!"
