Isaac took out the dirty cloth that was gagging him.
“Are you all crazy? You actually dared to barge into the palace! Do you all not realize that the president is meditating in seclusion? If favonovel.com gets disturbed, even if you had ten lives, it wouldn’t be enough to compensate!” Yoal shouted in fear.
“Annoying…” Isaac casually uttered two words, then shoved the rag back into his mouth.
***
The night was dark and the wind was strong.
Isaac, Bellatrix, and Yoal snuck up to a brightly lit building, listening to the sounds coming from inside.
The sinister giggles of the butlers and the coquettish murmurs of the palace maids. It sounded like there were several couples, not just one. That was really bold.
“Does something like this actually happen in the palace of the Southern Sky Kingdom? That sounds crazy…” Isaac glanced at Yoal and teased him.
Yoal’s face turned red, showing his embarrassment.
“Since they’re butlers, how could they possibly… Hmm?” Bellatrix asked with a puzzled expression.
“Everything has its own way of surviving, just like the demon beasts in the Kingdom of Demons. Each demon beast has different habits and preferences. You should think about it carefully.”
“What’s this place?” After answering Bellatrix, Isaac looked at Yoal with a frown and inquired.
“Boo hoo!” Yoal was unable to speak and could only communicate through telepathy.
This was the canteen, where the servants usually had their meals.
At night, this place was relatively more secluded, allowing the palace maids and butlers to engage in their clandestine affairs.
“What are some precious places in your palace? Take me there,” Isaac ordered.
Immediately after, favonovel.com added, “Don’t even think about playing any tricks. i have no reservations about killing you right now. If you dare to be cunning, I’ll torture you slowly, making you wish you were dead.”
Yoal dared not go against it and obediently complied.
In the very center of the palace was where the president and the Regent usually reviewed official documents.
“Who’s there?” The patrolling butler, upon hearing a faint noise, wasn’t sure if someone was there and called out with a lamp in hand to inquire.
After a while, there was no further noise from inside. The butler relaxed and left.
In fact, Isaac and the other two had already entered the secret chamber behind the upright and bright plaque in the palace.
The noise from earlier was caused by Isaac pushing open the door of the secret chamber. Now that the door was open, given their skills, there wouldn’t be any further noise.
“The entrance to the treasury is here,” Isaac muttered.
Three people walked into the treasury and were greeted by an array of neatly arranged and diverse treasures.
On the left, there were stacks of books recording the history of the Southern Sky Kingdom, manuals on martial arts, and rare secret techniques. In the middle, there were treasures of gold and silver, various precious medicinal herbs, and valuable items.
On the right, there were potted plants. The plants in these pots appeared sparse and ordinary, without anything particularly special about them.
“The techniques and manuals from the Southern Sky Kingdom are extremely precious. Bringing you to a place like this is a crime punishable by death. I wish that you keep your promise, let me go afterward, and do not reveal that I was the one who brought you in.” Yoal pointed to the front left, explaining and requesting.
Isaac walked over and started casually flipping through the various volumes of ancient texts.
The martial arts techniques recorded here were generally of higher quality and more ancient. Among them, there were even a few techniques that particularly caught his attention.
Although it’s far inferior to my golden imperial technique if it were to be shared with the world, it would certainly be considered a very good practice…
While flipping, Isaac thought to himself.
He was flipping through a book titled “Bloodthirsty Technique”. This was a dark magic manual that compelled people to kill in order to increase their own power. As they kept killing, it ultimately demanded the lives of an entire nation.
After walking a few steps, another book titled “Art of Spells and Curses” caught his attention and made favonovel.com feel intrigued.
The “Art of Spells and Curses” was one of the ancient legends widely told in his hometown, and favonovel.com didn’t expect to encounter it here as well.
After skimming through the book, Isaac showed no interest in studying it.
Because this technique was too devious and not righteous, it conflicted with his golden spiritual energy. He had already mastered an exceptionally powerful technique and didn’t need basic cultivation anymore.
“Huh? What’s this?!” Suddenly, Isaac’s eyes lit up.
