Lucia soared into the sky with lightning speed after everyone rode on her back.
However, Luciaâs action attracted the attention of many rogue cultivators, so dozens of those rogue cultivators decided to chase after Lucia by riding on their flying treasures.
Even though Lucia, Xiâer, Yaya, Shao Ying, and Ji Xuanmingâs team could easily defeat those dozens of rogue cultivators, but they did not want to waste their time fighting against them.
Lucia immediately activated her [Slow Motion] buff without any hesitation!
(Slow Motion: The user will feel the flow of time around him/her slow down tenfold. Buff duration: 5 minutes, Cooldown: 1 hour.)
In that instant, the movement of those rogue cultivators slowed down like a snail!
Lucia flew swiftly past them by flying in an S shape and tilting her body to the right and left.
After leaving all of those rogue cultivators far behind before they could even have a time to react, Lucia headed straight to the center of Capital City, where the Imperial Palace was previously located.
Luciaâs current speed was much faster than before after she trained hard in the [Nine Elementals Immortal Pagoda] and managed to comprehend the Profound Law of Light.
Not to mention that her speed increased by ten times again under the effect of [Slow Motion]!
Even if Tang Li Xue activated her [Wings of Freedom] buff, she still would not be able to catch up with the current Lucia.
It only took less than a minute for Lucia to bring everyone to the previous location of the Imperial Palace.
Since the Imperial Palace had not teleported back to the Capital City yet, Lucia, Xiâer, Yaya, Shao Ying, and Ji Xuanmingâs team could only hide themselves first and wait patiently until that happens for now.

"No, Your Majesty? Your Majestyyyyâ!" The old ancestors cried in sorrow.
The âold emperorâ finally breathed his last after he recorded his last words on the recording orb.
The âold emperorâ said that he appointed Xu Yang as his successor and the next Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, because Xu Yang had shown his capability to lead the Great Wei out of danger.
The âold emperorâ also praised Xu Yang to the skies for his courage, talent, wisdom, devotion, and decisiveness, which were the qualifications needed to become Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty.
He was sure that under Xu Yangâs lead, the Great Wei Dynasty could recover quickly and reach a higher height in the future.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy and Little Loki watched everything from afar with amusement as if they were watching a historical TV drama.
But Tang Li Xue immediately scolded her perfect copy for being lazy through their mind connection and ordered her to feed the unconscious Xu Yang some Spiritual Healing Water, so he could recover quickly and regain his consciousness.
After all, Xu Yang should be the âProtagonistâ in their performance, so how could their story be concluded if he just sleeps there like a delicate princess in the fairytale?!
What was he waiting for? Waiting to be kissed by the Handsome Prince?
Wait a second... Thinking about the prince made Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy feel like they had forgotten about something.
âLetâs just forget it. It should not be something important if we cannot remember it.â Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy decided in their heart.
The dying Third Prince would probably cry miserably if he knew the woman of his dreams had completely forgotten about him right now.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy walked toward the unconscious Xu Yang while taking out a grourd from her space pouch.
Taoist Uncle immediately knew what Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy wanted to do, so Taoist Uncle did not prevent her from getting close to Xu Yang and let her feed the Spiritual Healing Water to the unconscious Xu Yang.
Spiritual Healing Water alone was already quite potent, but Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy thought it was still not enough, so she took out [Jade Talisman of Advanced Regeneration] from her space pouch and used it on Xu Yang.
[Jade Talisman of Advanced Regeneration] stuck on Xu Yangâs body and quickly merged with his body after it activated.
The combined effect of the spiritual healing water and the [Jade Talisman of Advanced Regeneration] was more than just âone plus one equals twoâ.
It only took a few moments for Xu Yang to completely recover and regain his consciousness.
"Young Master! How do you feel? Do you still feel any pain or discomfort?" Taoist Uncle asked in a worried tone.
Xu Yang shook his head while rubbing his forehead to clear his dizziness.
Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy squatted close to Xu Yang and whispered to Xu Yang what had happened when he fainted.
Xu Yang instantly understood that Tang Li Xue had already set a perfect stage for him, and she waited for him to bring the perfect conclusion to end this incident.
Xu Yang stood up and nodded gratefully to Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy before he walked to the old emperor, who had already passed away peacefully.
Xu Yang knelt down and kowtowed three times to the deceased emperor to pretend to show his filial piety before standing up again and facing everyone with a firm expression.
"I know everyone is still mourning for His Majesty the emperor, but this is not over yet! We still have a lot of things to do!" Xu Yang spoke up to all the old ancestors.
Xu Yang took a deep breath as if he was trying hard to contain his sadness before he continued to say: "I am sure His Majesty the emperor does not want us to grieve over him in this kind of situation!"
"You are right." The bald ancestor Shi nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we have to return to the Capital City as soon as possible. I am sure the Capital City should be in great chaos right now." The hunchback old woman added in a worried tone.
The Grandmaster with long white eyebrows cupped his hands to Xu Yang and said politely to him: "Doctor Xu... No! Crown Prince Xu, you have said that you can teleport this entire Imperial Palace back to Capital City after we cure the Heavenly Golden Dragon. So, can you do it now?"
Xu Yang nodded and replied: "Yes, but I need your help, old ancestors... and also Heavenly Golden Dragonâs help."
"Just say what we have to do, Crown Prince Xu. We will definitely help you." The bald ancestor Shi replied in a reassuring tone.
Xu Yang began to distribute tasks to all the old ancestors.
Heavenly Golden Dragon felt really guilty for what it had done after it woke up, so it also obediently followed Xu Yangâs instructions.
An old ancestor wanted to put the old emperorâs dead body into his spatial ring, but Xu Yang quickly stopped him.
Well, the âold emperorâ did not really die, so how could they put the body into the spatial ring?!
Xu Yang reasoned that it was impolite to put the old emperorâs dead body into the spatial ring, so they decided to create an ice coffin with an ice spell and put the old emperorâs dead body into the ice coffin.
After storing the ice coffin containing the old emperorâs dead body in the Hall of Central Harmony, Xu Yang, Taoist Uncle, Heavenly Golden Dragon, and all the old ancestors started to get busy.
Tang Li Xue took this chance to use the [Swap] skill and switch places with her perfect copy.
Although Tang Li Xueâs perfect copy was unwilling, she still followed the real Tang Li Xueâs instructions and disguised herself as the deceased emperor, then she lay and pretended to be dead in the ice coffin.
RUMBLEâ! RUMBLEâ! RUMBLEâ! RUMBLEâ!
The entire Imperial Palace was suddenly shaking violently!
WEEEEEENGâ!
The crimson barrier that covered the entire Imperial Palace was glowing brightly with an eerie red light!
"This is the opportunity! Focus on sensing the space fluctuation around the Imperial Palace!" Tang Li Xue instructed her perfect copy through their mind connection.
Both Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy were hastily executing their [Void Divinities Refining Method] in unison to sense the space energy and space fluctuation around them.
[Spatial Displacement (Lv0: 22%)]
[Spatial Displacement (Lv0: 30%)]
[Spatial Displacement (Lv0: 45%)]
.....
The percentage of her [Spatial Displacement] skill began to soar rapidly!
Tang Li Xue was very excited when she saw that, so she tried even harder to completely comprehend the [Spatial Displacement] skill in one go!
After a few breaths or so, the magnificent Imperial Palace was teleported back to the center of the Capital City!
Xu Yang, Taoist Uncle, and all the old ancestors felt relieved and excited because they really succeeded.
The only one who did not feel happy among them was probably Tang Li Xue.
Tang Li Xueâs stunningly beautiful face was gloomy as she stared unhappily at her Systemâs status window.
[Spatial Displacement (Lv0: 77%)]
"Damn it! Only 23% left to reach 100%! It was so close!" Tang Li Xue complained angrily.
"Maybe we should just ask Doctor Xu to teleport the entire Imperial Palace back to that isolated space?" Tang Li Xueâs topaz blue eyes shone brighter as she thought about that idea.
But before she could think about how to ask Doctor Xu to do it...
BAAAANGâ!
The crimson barrier that enveloped the Imperial Palace was destroyed by the Heavenly Golden Dragon!
It also destroyed Tang Li Xueâs hope to once more use the Spatial Displacement Formation in order to fully comprehend the [Spatial Displacement] skill.
It seemed Tang Li Xue could only rely on herself to fully comprehend the [Spatial Displacement] skill from now on.
