When Chu Luo heard this, she only said, “Got it.”
After saying that, she closed the door.
After Chu Luo closed the door, she said to Phoenix, “Phoenix, teleport me to the place with the greatest energy fluctuation in the castle.”
With a flash of light, Chu Luo arrived at a corner of the castle.
It was very quiet here.
In front of her was a corridor carved with white jade pillars. On the left of the corridor was a garden, and on the right was a wall.
That powerful energy fluctuation came from the wall. Chu Luo observed her surroundings and realized that the end of the corridor led to the wall. She used an Invisibility Talisman and walked over.
Walking through the circular arched door, she saw a huge courtyard with a fountain in the middle.
There were a few people wearing black cloaks standing opposite the fountain.
Chu Luo stood there and looked over. At this moment, she heard footsteps approaching from behind.
She turned around and saw a servant walking over with a bowl of piping hot black medicine.
“Could Li Yan be inside?”
At the thought of this, Chu Luo decided to go in and take a look. She went over to tap the servant’s acupoints and hid the servant in a hidden place. Then, she carried the bowl of medicine and used magic to transform into the servant before walking into the courtyard.
She had just walked to the door when she was stopped by the men in black cloaks. “Stop right there.”
One of them walked up and said, “Give me the medicine.”
Chu Luo lowered her eyes and pa.s.sed the tray to him.
The person took the tray and said, “You can leave.”
Chu Luo retreated respectfully and walked out, but she cast a spell at the fountain.
The statue in the fountain suddenly trembled, and the water in the fountain turned into water arrows that shot towards them.
“Who is it!” Two of the black cloaks quickly went over.
Chu Luo pretended to be frightened and kept backing away.
The person holding the tray didn’t enter immediately. He said to the two people blocking the water arrows, “Don’t make too much noise. If you disturb Master, she will definitely be angry.”
After saying that, he pushed the door open and walked in.
Chu Luo immediately followed.
Unexpectedly, there was a pa.s.sageway inside.
The pa.s.sageway was very long, and there were crystal wall lamps everywhere. The light elongated the shadow of the black-cloaked man holding the bowl of medicine.
Chu Luo had used an Invisibility Talisman after entering, so that person didn’t discover her.
She followed this person for a while before arriving outside a room.
Black Cloak knocked on the door a few times, pushed it open, and walked in.
Chu Luo quickly followed him in before the door closed.
It was a bedroom with many gorgeous furniture inside.
At this moment, a conversation came from inside. “Mr. Arlan, this is the medicine that Master prepared for you. Hurry up and drink it.”
Then, she heard an anxious and sharp voice. “Will I turn back into a real man after drinking this bowl of medicine?”
“Yes.”
“I’ll drink it, I’ll drink it.”
Chu Luo didn’t need to enter to know who was inside.
She thought disdainfully, ‘Have you asked for my permission before you can become a man again?’
Arlan quickly drank the bowl of medicine and asked, “Where is the man we caught tonight?”
“In the house in the middle of West Lake.”
“Did you torture him?”
“No. The Queen has ordered that we can’t torture that person for the time being.”
“Why!” Arlan’s voice instantly raised by an octave. “That person harmed me so badly. Why didn’t G.o.dma torture him?”
“The Queen wants to get the Blazing Glory Corporation from him.”
Arlan’s tone was very unpleasant. “Your master is so powerful that that man’s company can be obtained with any random spell. Do they want him to hand it over willingly?”
“I don’t know about that.”
After saying that, he walked out.
Arlan shouted from behind him, “Take me there. I want to see that Li fellow.”
“Your Excellency Arlan, the Queen and Master have instructed us not to torture him for the time being.”
“I won’t torture him. I’m just going to take a look,” Arlan threatened. “Your master said that you must satisfy all my requests. Are you not going to agree to this little request of mine?”
In the end, Black Cloak agreed.
When Arlan walked out of the room, Chu Luo was shocked by his current appearance.
This person had only one part missing, but he actually made himself look like a woman. He was covered in makeup, and Chu Luo almost vomited from disgust.
She followed the two of them outside for a while before finally arriving at a lake.
The lake was behind the castle. It was huge.
A house had been built in the middle of the lake. As there wasn’t a path that led straight to the house, Black Cloak flew over with Arlan.
As soon as Arlan was put down, he started walking towards the door of the house.
There were also a few people in black cloaks standing by the door.
Chu Luo also discovered that surrounding the house, there was a magic array.
When Arlan walked over, Black Cloak gestured to the person standing inside. The magic formation was activated and he walked in.
Chu Luo slowly followed him in. When she pa.s.sed through the quickly sealed magic formation, she was not affected at all.
Arlan walked to the door, unable to hide the excitement on his face. He turned to the men behind him. “All of you, stay outside and don’t come in.”
The black-cloaked men seemed to be at ease and stood there without moving.
Arlan quickly pushed open the door and walked in, then crossed the hall to a room.
When he pushed open the door, Chu Luo saw Li Yan sitting in his wheelchair with his eyes closed.
The moment the door was pushed open, he suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flickering across them.
Arlan looked at Li Yan and smiled smugly.
“Li Yan, you’re in my hands. What do you think I should do to you?”
Li Yan looked at him with intense disdain.
Provoked by his gaze, Arlan took out a dagger and pointed it at his eyes. “I hate your eyes. How about I dig them out and play with them like a ball?”
Li Yan finally spoke in a deep and cold voice. “That depends on whether you have the ability.”
“Hmph! I think you haven’t seen your current situation clearly. In that case, let me teach you.”
After saying that, he quickly raised the dagger and lunged at his eyes.
Li Yan reacted quickly. He tilted his head back and, while avoiding the man’s dagger, reached out to grab his wrist.
Arlan didn’t expect Li Yan to be so skilled even at a time like this. He was shocked and shouted outside, “Someone, come quickly!”
Chu Luo had already set up a soundproofing talisman when she entered. No matter how Arlan shouted, no one outside could hear him.
At this moment, Li Yan’s body shook and his arm powerlessly let go of Arlan’s wrist and drooped down.
Seeing him like this, Arlan was delighted and laughed sinisterly. “Looks like you can’t use force at all. Hahahaha… Then don’t blame me for being impolite.”
After saying that, he stabbed the dagger into his eye again.
Ding!
Pa!
Amid those two sounds, the dagger in Arlan’s hand was suddenly flicked towards his own face.
In the next second, the side of the dagger hit his face, leaving a red mark.
“Ah… It hurts… Ahhh…”
In the next second, Arlan threw the dagger in his hand and covered his face as he bent down and screamed in pain.
Li Yan quickly scanned his surroundings.
Chu Luo deliberately didn’t appear. She walked behind him and patted his shoulder.
Li Yan abruptly turned around to look.
If not for the fact that she didn’t see anyone reflected in his eyes, Chu Luo would have thought that he could see her.
At this moment, Li Yan whispered extremely softly, “Make him lose consciousness.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she subconsciously turned around, took out a pill, and flicked it at Arlan.
Arlan, who was still screaming, fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
At this moment, Li Yan suddenly called out to Chu Luo, “Luoluo.”
His voice was dry, hoa.r.s.e, and especially low, probably because he hadn’t drunk water in a long time.
Chu Luo removed the Invisibility Talisman and appeared in front of him.
She looked at him in the wheelchair and frowned with disdain. “Why are you so pitiful?”
Li Yan looked at her with a depth that made her heart tremble. He said, “There is a very powerful mage here. I’m trapped by the magic rope and can’t move.”
Chu Luo raised her hand and tapped his body. The magic rope appeared and quickly became an ordinary rope.
“Will this alert the mage?”
“It’s better if she’s alerted so that I can meet her.”
Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, a powerful energy fluctuation came from the room.
Then, a woman in a black court dress appeared in front of them.
The woman looked very young. The moment she appeared, she looked at the “disfigured” and unconscious Arlan. Powerful anger appeared on her face. “How dare you treat Arlan like this!”
Chu Luo glanced at her, then ignored Arlan and bluntly pointed out her age. “You’re obviously an old woman, but you use magic to make yourself look like a young person. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?”

Farah, the mage, hated it when people called her an old woman. She looked at the young and beautiful Chu Luo and immediately emitted a black aura.
“Since you dare to call me an old woman, I’ll let you experience what it’s like to be an old woman.”
As she spoke, she raised her hand and a black magic energy crystal ball appeared in it. The crystal ball revolved and quickly shot out black magic rays towards Chu Luo.
“A little trick.”
After saying that, Chu Luo quickly attacked and absorbed the black magic into her body.
