After the night, everyone's alertness was raised to the highest level.

The three elders who led the team took turns to be on duty for the rest of the day to ensure absolute safety.

After such a thrilling past seven days, the group of Xuanyang Ancient Sect was finally about to arrive at their destination.

The imperial capital of the Shenyu Dynasty, Tianque City.

When they came to the city gate, everyone got out of the carriage and walked, and the Baizhang city wall standing in front of them also made everyone feel a little shocked.

It is estimated that it will take a lot of time for ordinary people to climb to the top, and those who can jump to the city wall in an instant can at least be able to do it with the cultivation of the Phantom King.

There was a crowd of people around, except for ordinary people, the rest were the sects that came to add a hundred sects like them, and these people walked through another special city gate.

The leaders of each group will take out the tokens of the sect, and then they will be brought into the city, because the royal family has already arranged special places for the major sects.

After everyone arrived at the residence, Elder He instructed everyone, and then took Ying Zhehong away, although it had been dealt with, Ying Zhehong's injuries did not improve much, if there was no accident, he might not be able to participate in this big competition.

If that's the case, then Phantom Rain will take his place, originally just a substitute, ready to play soy sauce, this is good, become the main force, Phantom Rain can only smile helplessly for a while.

When they first arrived in a different place, everyone was not familiar with the environment, so as to avoid trouble, almost everyone stayed in their own rooms.

Of course, there are also some sects that have good acquaintances and friends who move around with each other, after all, it is rare to have a chance to come out.

The palaces of all the princes and generals in the imperial capital are also surging, especially the mansions of several princes.

During the period of the Great Competition of the Hundred Sects, the martial law of the entire Tianque City also reached the highest level, and groups of soldiers could be seen patrolling back and forth on the streets.

Phantom Rain originally planned to stay in the house, but his temperament didn't like to be noisy, otherwise he wouldn't have been an otaku in his previous life.

However, he couldn't stand the soft grinding and hard bubbles of Yun Tong's Nizi, so he asked the elder for advice, although the elder was a little displeased, he finally nodded, and then a few people walked out.

Fortunately, now he has some family background, and he cultivates the Xuanyang Heavenly Scripture, and the consumption of phantom stones is not very large, so he let the two girls buy east and west, he walked behind and quietly looked at the two girls who were bouncing around, with a faint smile on his face.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Phantom Rain made the two sisters wear veils, so nothing like the bloody accident of being molested on the street did not happen.

Since he was going to participate in the big competition, he naturally needed to make some preparations in advance, so Phantom Rain bought a weapon at the price of hundreds of medium-grade phantom stones at a fantasy weapon store, and a medium-grade and low-grade silver long sword.

According to the shopkeeper, this sword is called Broken Stream, and Phantom Rain waved it a few times at will, but it was still quite handy, and then threw it into the space ring.

Next is Long Ao's favorite part, which is eating.

A few people found a rather luxurious restaurant, opened a private room, and ate beautifully.

During the banquet, Phantom Rain quietly released his soul sense, and found that there were many masters in this restaurant, especially one of them, which was not simple, out of curiosity, Phantom Yu took a look at it more, and who knew that the people inside had found him.

"Who"

This person's age is only slightly older than Phantom Rain, and he discovered his soul consciousness at the first time, and immediately burst out of his soul consciousness and chased after him, trying to pull out the voyeur, but when he was halfway through the chase, he found that he couldn't move forward a bit, it was like hitting a wall, and in desperation, he could only let the snooping soul sense slowly disappear.

Phantom Rain withdrew his soul sense, a trace of cold sweat flowed from his forehead, and he patted his chest in horror.

"Good Risk"

Long Ao raised his head vaguely and glanced at him with some reproach.

Phantom Yu could only smile embarrassedly, it was indeed that he was too reckless, if it wasn't for Long Ao's timely action just now, maybe there would be some kind of chaos.

In the other private room, the person who had chased the Phantom Rain Soul Sense before had a gloomy face, and the person next to him asked suspiciously.

"What's wrong?"

The man spoke coldly.

"Someone tried to snoop just now, and I drove them away"

"What"

The questioner was startled and continued to speak.

"Did anyone notice something, it couldn't be...."

Speaking of which, he made a gesture vaguely.

The man did not speak, and fell into deep thought.

Phantom Rain didn't know that one of his unintentional actions had caused a lot of commotion in another place.

After this incident, Phantom Rain did not move, and after everyone happily finished their meal, they quickly returned to their residence.

When he came back, Elder He had already returned here, and after asking a few words casually, he told him that Ying Zhehong was too seriously injured and was afraid that he would not be able to do anything with others in a short period of time, so Phantom Rain would represent the Xuanyang Ancient Sect to participate in the Great Competition.

He had already expected this, and he was not surprised, so he bowed down and said yes.

In the days that followed, Phantom Rain never went out, and stayed in the room to practice, preparing to deal with the next big battle.

Deep in the palace

"Your Majesty, the people from the major sects have almost arrived, and their subordinates have all been arranged."

A middle-aged man in official uniform knelt on the ground and said respectfully, this person's name is Xu Mu, who serves as the garrison of the imperial city.

After waiting for a long time, a deep voice sounded faintly.

"You're doing a great job"

The middle-aged man's face was beaming, as if this compliment was like a great reward to him.

"There should be a lot of action between them."

Hearing this inquiry, the middle-aged man's face was a little embarrassed, and he could only speak stiffly.

"As far as my subordinates know, there are indeed some actions, but my subordinates have sent people to spy on them."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move, and if you looked closely, you would find that his body was trembling a little.

"Alas, for the rest of the matter, you go to Ling Chendao and retreat."

Feel the tone of the speaker's voice carefully, as if there is some sarcasm and sadness.

After receiving the order, Xu Muru was amnesty, breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed again, and slowly retreated.

As soon as he got out of the palace gate, Xu Mu wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, then boarded the carriage and rolled away.

After a while, he came to a huge mansion and bowed slightly.

"The imperial city guards Xu Mu, asking to see the national teacher"

"Come in"

A slightly old voice sounded, and Xu Mu slowly stepped in.

As he walked down the hall, an old man in a robe with gray hair was staring at a blood-red stone, which was glowing faintly and looked a little strange.

This old man is the national teacher of the Shenyu Dynasty, Ling Chendao.

Don't look at him like this and think he's just an old man, that's a big mistake.

This person is not simple, because he is not only unparalleled in the world in the art of divination, but also has never made a difference, and his own cultivation has also reached the realm of the Phantom Emperor, and he is only more than a hundred years old, as for his appearance, it is rumored that he has spied on the heavens a lot, which has led to the decay of his lifespan, as for the facts, no one knows.

After Xu Mu came in, he saw that Ling Chendao was a little distracted, and he didn't dare to disturb for a while, so he could only stand there quietly.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Ling Chendao waved his hand, put away the blood-red stone, and slowly turned around.

Xu Mu said in time.

"National teacher, Your Majesty's side.."

Before he could finish speaking, Ling Chendao raised his hand slightly and interrupted him.

"Lord Xu, Your Majesty's holy will cannot be speculated at will, as for those people, it is Your Majesty's family affairs, we only do what we should do, do you know"

Xu Mu knelt directly on the ground and said in fear.

"National Teacher Mingjian"

"Go ahead, it's business as usual"

Ling Chendao slowly stood up, gave the order to evict the guests, and then walked into the inner hall.

It wasn't until his figure completely disappeared that Xu Mu slowly stood up, sighed in a low voice, and then left here.
