The Second Piece!

Chu Liuyue's figure rapidly disappeared, and the crack in the barrier quickly fixed itself.

In the blink of an eye, the two Xuan formations that were forced apart connected once again.

The silver light flashed and later dimmed. The barrier regained its peace and looked transparent again. It was as if… everything hadn't happened.

Wu Yao closed his eyes and looked dazed. Then, he couldn't help but pinch his face.

"Si—" The sharp pain jolted him awake, and he hurriedly stopped himself. But at the same time, it made him realize ever so clearly that everything which happened previously was real! Her Highness actually opened the Beiming Imperial Palace's barrier!

"Damn…" muttered Wu Yao. "Did Her Highness just find a place to cultivate during these two years?"

If not, how did she do it just now?

But after some careful thinking, it didn't seem to be the case.
