As soon as he entered the gate of the imperial capital, a team of forbidden troops appeared in front of everyone, and Xuan Hengzhi, who was dressed in military uniform, walked from behind the forbidden army to everyone and saluted: "Everyone has merit with the court this time, Your Majesty asked me to take you into the palace to receive the reward." ”

Chen Hong glanced at Xuan Hengzhi and asked, "Does Wu Gongzi also need to enter the palace?"

Xuan Hengzhi smiled and nodded.

Wu Shuo stepped forward and said angrily: "My son has been injured so much, he has to rest now, he can't enter the palace, I'll go and explain to Your Majesty." ”

Xuan Hengzhi smiled and said: "Ling Gongzi is the person His Majesty personally named to see, and, Qingfenglan!"

Qingfeng, who had been hiding behind, shook his head helplessly and smiled.

Xuan Hengzhi saw that Qingfeng Lan did not resist, and continued: "If someone is unwilling to enter the palace, then don't blame me for escorting you into the palace. ”

As soon as Wu Shuo saw Xuan Hengzhi's attitude, he immediately quit, and the momentum of the integration of man and soul exploded instantly, and the forbidden army on the opposite side was overwhelmed by the momentum.

Xuan Hengzhi smiled and took a step forward, a powerful momentum erupted from his body, faintly suppressing Wu Shuo, and when Wu Shuo was surprised, Xuan Hengzhi smiled and said, "Master Wu, have you forgotten that I have been cultivating for so many years?"

Wu Shuo wanted to push back the aura that was oppressing him, but found that there was no way to fight back.

Xuan Heng saw that Wu Shuo was deflated, and took a step to the side to get out of the way and make a gesture of please.

Chen Hong glanced at Xuan Hengzhi and Wu Shuo, and walked straight over.

Looking at the aggrieved Wu Shuo, Qingfeng Lan also followed. Xuanyue followed closely behind Qingfeng Lan and walked over.

Seeing Qingfeng Lan follow, Wu Shuo turned around and pulled up Wu Hongtian's carriage and followed, although he was angry, but after so many days of getting along with Qingfeng Lan, he knew that this young man did not rub sand in his eyes, and he cherished people who were good to him a hundred times, and if he had a trace of excesses, he might get it would be a catastrophe.

A group of five people came to the imperial city under the "escort" of dozens of Praetorian Guards.

The last time I entered the imperial city, I quietly came in before leaving, and now I can walk in blatantly, and Qingfeng Lan is still a little happy.

After the four of them entered the imperial city, they followed Xuan Hengzhi all the way, and after walking for a while, Chen Hong opened his mouth and asked, "Lord Xuan, where are you going?"

Xuan Hengzhi did not answer Chen Hong's question and continued to walk forward.

After walking for a while, Qingfeng Lan also saw that something was wrong here, and asked Xuanyue beside him in a low voice: "Where is this going? ”

Xuan Yue looked around and whispered: "Look at this direction, it should be going to the martial arts arena." ”

Qingfeng Lan looked ahead curiously and asked, "What is the place of the martial arts arena?"

Xuan Yue: "The martial arts arena is a place for martial arts competitions in the imperial capital, and the nine princesses' martial arts competitions are set here. ”

Qingfeng nodded, thinking about all the things he encountered, but he couldn't understand why His Majesty wanted his group of people to come here.

After walking for a while, through a long corridor, a huge clearing appeared in front of me, surrounded by a wall more than ten meters high, and the high wall was guarded by soldiers.

Qing Feng Lan looked around, and found that this was a huge martial arts arena, it seems, this is the martial arts arena, looked at the soldiers on the high wall, Qing Feng Lan had a slight doubt in his heart, although these soldiers were dressed in the same way as the forbidden army, but they looked obviously stronger than all the forbidden troops they had seen before, and there was a strong smell of blood in the breath exuded from their bodies, and they looked like a group of people who had experienced life and death on the battlefield.

Xuan Hengzhi led everyone to a high platform in front of him after standing in the center of the martial arts arena, only to see a small pavilion surrounded by a gauze curtain on the high platform, and when the wind blew, you could occasionally see the people behind the curtain, but you couldn't see your face clearly.

After a few people stood still, Xuan Heng took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty, all the people in the battle of the alien beasts are brought." ”

After finishing speaking, Xuan Hengzhi slowly stepped back and stood with everyone.

A person walked out next to the pavilion, wearing silver armor and holding the hilt of the sword in one hand: "I am very pleased that you have the merit of destroying foreign beasts, and now you will show your respective spirits and distribute rewards according to your spirit attributes." After speaking, he slowly retreated.

Chen Hong stood there and hesitated for a moment before slowly stretching out his hand, only to see a silver flowing liquid appear on the palm of his hand, and the liquid was beating slowly, constantly changing into different shapes.

The Silver Armor Guard stepped forward again and said loudly, "Flowing Silver, reward!"

Chen Hong looked at the guard in shock when he heard the meteorite silverstone, only to see the guard glance at Chen Hong coldly, by this skimming, Chen Hong instantly sobered up, and hurriedly knelt down to thank him.

Seeing that Chen Hong had received such a big reward, Wu Shuo stepped forward and waved his palm, and a small boulder mammoth appeared beside him.

Guard: "Mammoth, reward! An ancient elephant soul fragment." ”

Wu Shuo instantly knelt on the ground and practiced thanksgiving.

After Wu Shuo thanked him, he hurriedly walked to Wu Hongtian's side, helped Wu Hongtian up, and said, "Your Majesty, my son's body has not recovered yet, and I can't salute, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”

The guard glanced at the people in the pavilion and turned back and said, "Quasi!"

With Wu Shuo's help, gray-white smoke gradually appeared on Wu Hongtian's body, but it only lasted for a moment before disappearing, Wu Shuo explained: "Wu'er's body is too weak, so he can't manifest his spirit, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”

Defender: "The spirit of the beast is really rare, there is no reward available in the empire, this time it will be recorded on your father's head, reward! ”

Wu Shuo hurriedly thanked him, and this time he got two pieces of primeval elephant soul fragments, and cultivated them, and in a few years, he would definitely be able to catch up with Xuan Hengzhi's cultivation, and even trample it under his feet.

Seeing that everyone had already received the reward, Qingfeng Lan gently bumped Xuanyue beside him and motioned for him to go first.

Xuanyue stepped forward and stretched out her palm, and a small bird burning with flames appeared on the palm.

The guards didn't even look at it: "Flame Bird, reward! ”

After bowing and thanking, Xuanyue retreated to Qingfenglan's side, although Xuanyue didn't say anything, but when she stood on Qingfenglan's side, Xuanyue was obviously trembling with excitement.

Qingfeng Lan saw that everyone had already received the reward, and he also stepped forward, stretched out a hand, and a dark kitten slowly appeared in the palm of his hand.

The guard glanced at the kitten in Qingfenglan's hand and then looked back at the people in the pavilion, and after a while, the people in the pavilion said, "Qingfenglan, reward a suit of armor." Breeze stepped aside.

Just when everyone was shocked why Qingfeng Lan had received so few rewards, the guard: "Everyone stand down." ”

Everyone didn't dare to say anything, especially those who had received the reward, if they talked too much now, His Majesty would be angry and take back the previous reward, it would be more than worth the loss.

Everyone slowly left the martial arts arena, and after walking out of the martial arts arena, Qingfeng Lan walked to Xuan Hengzhi's side and whispered, "When will I be arranged to enter the palace to meet the Ninth Princess?"

Xuan Hengzhi snorted coldly and said, "Aren't you already in now? ”

Qingfeng Lan glanced at Xuan Hengzhi, then looked at Wu Shuo behind him, and whispered: "This time, Master Wu has credited all his kindness to you, I helped you get such a big help, and you actually broke your promise?"

Xuan Hengzhi glanced at Qingfeng Lan and said: "Don't show this with me here, if Wu Shuo is really on my side, then he won't fight against me at the city gate, I know what you went out to do, he regards you as a benefactor, but not me." After saying that, he turned around and left.

Qingfeng pursed his lips and sighed again.

Seeing Qingfeng sighing, Xuan Yue walked to her side and comforted: "It's okay, this time Chief Chen and Master Wu have a very good evaluation of you, and you can use their relationship to enter the palace." ”

When Qingfeng heard this, he hurriedly walked to Chen Hong's side and said with a smile: "Chief Chen is going home?"

Chen Hong glanced at Qingfeng Lan and said, "Don't beat around the bush with me, just say anything straight." ”

Qingfeng rubbed his hands and said, "I just want to meet the Ninth Princess, I wonder if Chief Chen can arrange it?"

Chen Hong snorted coldly: "You know that my daughter likes you, and now you beg me to take you to see the Ninth Princess?"

The breeze wilted.

Turning his head to look at Wu Shuo, who was pulling the car behind him, this was the last straw.

Walking to Wu Shuo's side, Qingfeng Lan didn't speak, but Wu Shuo bowed to Qingfeng Lan, and the frightened Qingfeng Lan hurriedly helped him up, looked left and right and whispered: "Don't be like this in front of outsiders, I still want to live a few more years, I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm just worried that someone will speculate, I don't want to bear any strange names." ”

Wu Shuo glanced around and nodded slowly.

Qingfeng Lan cleared his throat and asked, "Does Lord Wu have anything to do with this imperial city?" I want to meet the Ninth Princess." ”

Wu Shuo sighed and explained: "It's okay to say before, it's nothing to take you to meet the Ninth Princess as a general, but I just received the news that on the night I left the imperial capital, someone sneaked into the palace of the Nine Princesses, and Xuan Hengzhi was also implicated because of this matter, and now the defense around the palace of the Nine Princesses has also been handed over to General Lan, and I am powerless now." ”

Qingfeng Lan asked curiously, "Who is General Lan?"

Wu Shuo whispered in Qingfenglan's ear and said: "General Lan is the silver armor general who just stood on the high platform, he is His Majesty's hair young, he has followed His Majesty since he was a child, and he is considered His Majesty's most trusted person, although it looks like the forbidden army is guarding this imperial city, but the person who really guards this imperial city is General Lan." ”

Qingfeng Lan looked at Wu Shuo in surprise: "He is so strong, is Lord Chen strong or General Lan strong?"

Wu Shuo: "Of course it's General Lan, General Lan alone can reach tens of thousands of people, and his elusive army." ”

Qingfeng: "Army?"

Wu Shuo: "I've also heard, I've heard that there is a force in this imperial city, they are doing all kinds of things in the imperial city, but if someone breaks into the imperial city, they will turn into ghosts in the dark night, and kill all these intruders, and the next day you will see a few more corpses in the morgue, but you will never know who killed these intruders." ”

Qingfeng opened his mouth to look around, and there was no one around, and then asked in a low voice, "Then did they hear what we are saying now?"

Wu Shuo glanced around and whispered back: "I don't know, I don't know who those people are, don't look at me I've been in the imperial capital for so long, but I rarely come to this imperial city." ”

Qingfeng carefully put his index finger on his mouth, made a shush movement, and hurriedly walked out. It's not much slower than running.

After the four of them left the imperial city, they broke up and went back to their respective homes.

As soon as I got home, I saw Chen Junyi standing at the door.

Seeing Qingfeng Lan coming over, Chen Junyi hurriedly greeted him, and after approaching, he looked up and down, and saw that Qingfeng Lan was not injured, so he patted his chest and was relieved.

Xuan Yue stood aside a little embarrassed, coughed lightly and said, "Is there something wrong with Miss Chen coming here?"

Chen Junyi saw Xuanyue next to her, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's nothing, it's just that my mother said that you are back, let you go to my house for dinner, so many days outside, it must be not good to eat, my mother has made a lot of delicious food, just wait for us to go back." ”

Qingfeng smiled and said: "Thank you Auntie for your kindness, I won't go tonight, we have been away for so many days, and we can't sleep well, I just took a bite on the way back, and now I'm sleepy, I want to go back to sleep soon." ”

Xuanyue was very cooperative and yawned beside her.

Chen Junyi took a look and found that Qingfenglan's eyes were indeed a little ruddy, and it seemed that he must be tired.

Qingfeng Lan saw that Chen Junyi was impressed by her acting skills, and hurriedly continued: "Then let's go back to sleep first, it's too sleepy, wait until we have rested and then come to the door to disturb." ”

After speaking, he pulled Xuan Yue and left, and Xuan Yue also stumbled a few steps in cooperation.

Watching the two return to the mansion, Chen Junyi kicked the stones on the side of the road with an angry face. Then he turned and walked towards his home.

Qingfeng Lan and Xuan Yue were lying on the crack of the door and secretly saw Chen Junyi leaving, Qingfeng Lan patted his chest and exhaled.

Xuan Yue asked puzzledly, "You don't like to eat Aunt Zhou's food?"

Qingfeng Lan glanced at Xuanyue and said, "I like it so much, okay? Do you know how heartbroken I was when I just refused? ”

Xuan Yue looked at Qing Feng Lan with a puzzled expression, and Qing Feng Lan explained: "Chief Chen overshadowed me when he fought against the alien beasts before, and I will go to his house for dinner now, do I still want to lose face?"

Xuanyue nodded slowly, and then asked, "Then what do we eat at night?"

Qingfeng Lan looked outside, sighed and said, "Just find someone to go out and buy some, I don't want to move anymore, I've moved too much these days, I need to take a good rest." ”

Xuanyue nodded and walked away.

Qingfeng Lan returned to the room alone, lay directly on the bed, and stretched comfortably.

As he was lying comfortably on the bed waiting for his food, a voice sounded: "It looks like you're tired." ”

Qingfeng sighed and said, "Can you not be so frightened every time?" Every time a sound suddenly comes out, do you know that people are easy to scare to death?"

The man in black slowly walked out of the darkness, looked at Qingfeng on the bed, and said, "Can't!"
