Forensic Imperial Concubine by Erika Black

Chapter 767

A day had passed and yet the library door remained firmly shut with no one able to open it. As Lance returned to the Imperial
Palace, the Holy Maiden stood guard from outside. Her face was solemn as she recalled what she had been told about the

Still, she was certain that this weird phenomenon must have something to do with Harper.
Diana didn't leave the Starry Palace either. She glanced at the Holy Maiden, taking pleasure in her misfortune. "Catherine, as the
Holy Maiden, you seem to be quite ordinary. What? Can't you even open the library door and go inside? If that's the case, don't

The Holy Maiden, on the other hand, merely turned a deaf ear to Diana's teasing. All her concern was over the library. Over and

The enormous library fell through the ground and sank beneath the earth right in front of them. In seconds, it had become
nothing but a pile of ruins. Dust filled the air as the earth rocked. The entire South Kingdom was shaken up, its people growing

king's quarters. Lance shot up from the bed at once and asked, "What happened? Why are you panicking like this?" "Something terrible happened at the Starry Palace!" replied the servant. Lance's heart skipped a beat at the mention of the Starry Palace. "What? Did something happen to

rest of the palace with it. Broken white jade bricks and crystals scattered all over the ground. Taking in the destruction
surrounding her, the Holy Maiden looked dumbstruck.
Diana was also in a terrible state herself, as the incident had badly hurt her leg. Now the Starry Palace, which everyone revered,
was in shambles. Diana was too horrified to say a word.
"The Starry Palace is destroyed." the Holy Maiden stated in a rather calm tone, though her eyes held an array of mixed feelings.
Her home for the past ten years was now wrecked, yet somehow a part of her was happy to know that. Why would she feel

their senses and came to help her and Catherine get out. More guards and servants began to clean up the debris while simultaneously searching for any trace of Harper. Kile had been feeling drowsy earlier, so he had headed back to his room to rest. Waking up from the earthquake in the middle of the night, he had the sudden urge to run away.
