Chapter 999: Chapter 54: 守哲 Arrives in Beijing! Turbulence Resurfaces_3 Chapter 999: Chapter 54: 守哲 Arrives in Beijing! Turbulence Resurfaces_3 “Afterwards, this old servant carefully checked every corner of the imperial kitchen, and finally, in an extremely hidden spot, he found a hole that wasn’t very large. And next to the hole, he found this clump of fur.”

At this point, Old Yao took out the small tuft of fur, his old face filled with a bitter smile, “The texture and color of this fur, Your Majesty, does it look familiar to you?”

“This…” Emperor Longchang’s eyes widened in disbelief, “That’s impossible, my five little ones have all been staying obediently in their wolf den. There are people on duty watching over them at night, it couldn’t possibly be theft…”

Speaking up to this point, even Emperor Longchang lacked the confidence to continue. He took the clump of fur and headed straight for the back garden.

In the Imperial Garden, the exquisitely crafted wolf den, the diligent eunuchs, and the well-behaved five little ones, everything was as it had always been.

When the eunuchs opened the gates of the wolf den, the five little ones immediately dashed out, circling around Emperor Longchang. Such a warm, affectionate, and well-behaved display warmed the emperor’s heart, and he couldn’t help but begin to doubt his own suspicions.

The five little ones are so well-behaved, how could they possibly steal food ingredients? Was it possible that he had wronged them once again? Maybe it was another Spirit Beast with similar fur that did it…

“Were you all well-behaved last night?” Emperor Longchang crouched down and gently touched each of their heads, his voice sounding somewhat tender.

“Ah woo ah woo~~” The five little ones howled in unison, nodding repeatedly.

“Then whose fur is this clump?” Emperor Longchang took out the clump of fur and started his interrogation, “Second Child, you’re usually the most lively, was it you who did this mischief? Fifth Child, you’re sneaking behind there, was it you?”

The five little ones crouched on the ground, looking at each other, then turning their pure and innocent gazes toward the emperor.

Our kind and adorable Old Master, what are you talking about? We can’t understand a word you’re saying?

“Your Majesty, as per your orders, whenever the five little ones are inside the wolf den, we are always watching over them,” the eunuch responsible for the guard joined in, “We always have two people on duty, and we can confirm that the five little ones never left.”

“Search the wolf den.” At this point, Emperor Longchang was already half-doubtful, “Mainly check for any holes.”

The eunuchs immediately obeyed the command and went to inspect the wolf den.

At first, they found nothing unusual, until one of the eunuchs lifted the specially laid soft carpet inside the wolf den.

In the corner, there was a small hole, just big enough to allow the passage of a little wolf cub.

“How is this possible?” The eunuchs were all shocked.

The five little ones were always under their watchful eyes, when did they dig the hole?

Emperor Longchang took one look and immediately felt a wave of dizziness as he supported his head.

That expression was like that of a parent who absolutely trusted their child, and then all of a sudden, the child turned out to be a lawbreaker, filled with disbelief as well as complex emotions of being deceived and betrayed.

His face dark as water, his gaze fixed intently on the five little ones: “Confess honestly, how did you do it?”

“Woo woo woo~” Seeing their deeds exposed, the five little ones knew they couldn’t escape and immediately hung their heads, their ears pressing against their heads, showing total remorse, a look of “I was wrong, and I will definitely change my ways.”

At the same time, they nudged each other, pushing the Fifth Child out.

The dispirited Fifth Child reluctantly moved forward, pitifully beginning his performance in front of the emperor.

He sat down in place and gave a shake of his fur, then backed up.

Something magical happened.

One Fifth Child suddenly became two, and the newly appeared one could also blink and stick out its tongue, looking very realistic. Even a less skillful Profound Martial Cultivator couldn’t see any flaw. If it were under moonlight, it would be even harder to distinguish the illusion from reality.

Then, Fifth Child stepped back again and created a second illusion, a third illusion…

“Moonlight Illusion Technique? You five little ones, how many more secrets are you hiding?” Emperor Longchang’s mouth twitched.

He could never have imagined that this pack of little wolf cubs each had vast divine abilities. Not only did they have the ability to turn invisible and hide their presence, possess space abilities, but also they held illusion powers? And were smart enough to use illusion abilities to fool the eunuchs and secretly dig a hole!

Though trivial to the might of Emperor Longchang, those abilities wouldn’t last a minute if they dared use them in front of him – he would see right through them.

But these little wolf cubs were still young, not even reaching Level Five~~ where on Earth did they learn this from?

Although Emperor Longchang was well-experienced and knowledgeable, he was momentarily stunned by them.

It was not strange for Silver Moon Grey Wolves to awaken abilities related to the moonlight illusions, but what was unusual was that they had awakened and could proficiently utilize them at such a level. And they had even deceived the watchful eunuchs.

You should know that the bloodline of the Silver Moon Grey Wolf is very ancient and prestigious. Before Level Five, they are considered cubs. Within their kind, the most resourceful Wolf King could even advance to Level Nine.

Ordinarily, Silver Moon Grey Wolf cubs only begin their adolescent period once they reach Level Five, when they can properly join in hunting, and afterwards, taming them is not easy.

This was also why Wang Licui wanted to send them back quickly. The strength of these five little cubs had already reached Mid Level Four, and within at most ten years they would advance to Level Five.
