Blizzard Palace, Emperor's Hall.
"We can't continue to search like headless flies."
Qinchuan suddenly turned his gaze to Ao Feng and Zhao Deng not far away. His expression was particularly dignified. Obviously, he didn't want to continue this meaningless search.
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Ao Feng looked up at Qinchuan and asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
In fact, Ao Feng had had enough of this hopeless search. If it wasn't for the heavy responsibility and pressure on his shoulders, he would have given up long ago. Two days would pass in the blink of an eye if it was used for cultivation. However, two days of searching for the rune stone made Ao Feng feel that it was extremely long and torturous.
Zhao Deng also looked over. He also wanted to hear Qinchuan's suggestion.
"The rune stone is definitely not in the Emperor's Hall. We are going in the wrong direction."
Qinchuan said in a deep voice, "We have searched the entire Emperor's Hall in less than two days. Before that, Audo had been searching here for two months. He had searched the Emperor's Hall at least ten times. Under such intensive searching, we still couldn't find the rune stone. This means that the rune stone is really not in the Emperor's Hall. We have to shift our gaze in another direction!"
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Ao Feng asked, "Then where do you think we should look?
As I said before, father didn't go anywhere other than the Emperor's Hall. "
In fact, Ao Feng also suspected that the Talisman Stone was hidden in the Emperor's Palace. However, he still believed that the Talisman Stone was hidden in the Emperor's Palace because the Wind Snow Palace was too big. If they shifted their attention to other places, they wouldn't know where to go.
Zhao Deng nodded in agreement when he heard Ao Feng's words. "The Blizzard Palace is huge, but the rune stone is very small. Where should we look for it?"
Qinchuan shook his head and said to the two, "I think we have fallen into a misunderstanding. Why must the rune stone be hidden in the Blizzard Palace? Why must it be in the Emperor's Hall?"
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Ao Feng and Zhao Deng were stunned for a moment. They asked in astonishment, "What do you mean?"
Qinchuan took a deep breath and said to the two, "First of all, the Great Emperor has the highest authority among the snowmen. If the Great Emperor went somewhere and told the snowmen not to tell anyone, then how can you know the Great Emperor's whereabouts?
Do you think that the Great Emperor has always been in the Hall of Heaven's Son?
After hearing Qin Chuan's explanation, Ao Feng and Zhao Deng's faces were filled with surprise. Obviously, before Qin Chuan mentioned this matter, they hadn't thought about it at all. According to Qin Chuan's understanding, this kind of thing wasn't impossible. After all, they couldn't keep watch outside the Emperor's Palace. Moreover, with Odysseus's strength, if he wanted to quietly leave the Emperor's Palace, they wouldn't be able to detect him at all!
"If that's the case, we've been completely misled!"
Ao Feng's face turned ugly. "But other than the Emperor's Hall, where else can we find the rune stone?"
The Blizzard Palace covered a huge area. It was half the size of a planet. If they had to search inch by inch, they might not be able to search the entire Blizzard Palace even if they had a year. Now, they had less than a day left!
"You said that the Emperor's Hall is the place with the best scenery in the Blizzard Palace."
Qinchuan slowly walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the snowy mountain outside. His eyes scanned the entire mountain bit by bit and finally fell on the top of the mountain.
Hearing Qinchuan's words and seeing Qinchuan's actions, Ao Feng and Zhao Deng subconsciously looked at the snowy mountain outside the floor-to-ceiling window. Their faces revealed a touch of astonishment.
"You mean the rune stone might be hidden in the snowy mountain?!"
Ao Feng looked at Qinchuan in disbelief and asked, "How did you think of this?"
Qinchuan shook his head slightly and said to Ao Feng, "I just think that the rune stone might be hidden in a place that can be accessed from the Emperor's Hall. That snowy mountain is just a suspect. Maybe it's right, maybe it's wrong. We have less than a day left. We have to take a gamble!"
"Qinchuan's guess is not unreasonable. We can give it a try!" Zhao Deng said in a deep voice. "No matter if it's right or wrong, we have to take a gamble!"
"If that's the case, then we …"
Ao Feng wanted to say something, but he suddenly stopped halfway. His eyes were fixed on the spaceship that suddenly appeared outside the window. The expression on his face was extremely strange!
"It looks like we don't have a chance anymore."
Qinchuan looked at the spaceship outside the window and said in a deep voice, "Zerg is here!"
"Hum!"
The spaceship's cabin door slowly opened, and dozens of black-robed figures walked out. Their bodies emitted a dangerous aura, and the one walking at the front was an old acquaintance of Qin Chuan. It was the black-robed man who also had the Sacred Beetle!
"It wasn't easy to find you guys."
The black-robed man's gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the Blizzard Palace's barrier and landed on Qinchuan. For the black-robed man, Ao Feng and Zhao Deng were insignificant characters that he did not need to pay attention to. Only Qinchuan, who had once injured him, was worth paying attention to.
Facing the black-robed man's gaze, Qinchuan looked deeply at the black-robed man and said to Ao Feng and Zhao Deng, "His target is me. The two of you better leave immediately and continue looking for the rune stone. If you can find the rune stone, we might still have a chance to live. If not, then think of your last words in advance."
Hearing Qinchuan's words, Ao Feng's expression changed slightly. He asked, "You plan to stop him alone?"
Qinchuan nodded and replied, "This is our best choice right now, but also the most helpless choice."
Although Ao Feng and Zhao Deng were both Apotheosis Stage cultivators, they were only Apotheosis Stage cultivators. In front of the black-robed man, they might not even be able to withstand a single blow. Staying here would just be cannon fodder. It was better to do something more practical.
Zhao Deng opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he did not say anything. He knew very well that staying here to be loyal was a very stupid thing to do. Even if they had to sacrifice themselves, it had to be meaningful!
"Brother, take care!"
Ao Feng and Zhao Deng no longer hesitated and turned to walk out of the Emperor's Palace.
Qinchuan took a deep breath and looked at the black-robed man with a sharp gaze!
"I couldn't kill you last time and let you escape. This time, I won't give you a second chance!"
