When Liu Xiu rushed back to the imperial capital with all his might.

In the northernmost palace of the imperial capital, in the most conspicuous building in the west palace group, there are dozens of plaques lined up inside, and behind the plaques in the first row, a halo suddenly appeared, and a man wearing a golden dragon robe suddenly appeared there, playing with a plaque engraved with gold in his hand, the man put the plaque on the table, and looked at the plaque in front of him with interest.

This man has an elegant face, a majestic body, a slender figure, and an invisible majesty shrouded in his body, giving a very strong sense of coercion, but judging from his appearance alone, he is just a young man in his twenties.

But this person is the Emperor of Yuji for more than 20 years, known as the Emperor of Zhongxing, Liu Che.

At this time, there was a wave of space fluctuations behind Liu Che, and a black-robed figure suddenly appeared behind Liu Che, and the black-robed figure knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, the Holy Martial King, has already set off, and everything is ready." ”

Liu Che didn't seem to hear the words of the black-robed figure, his eyes fluttered and looked at the plaque, and gently brushed the plaque in front of him with one hand, a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes, and then disappeared for a moment, and a trace of remembrance appeared, Liu Che repeatedly touched the plaque and was silent for a long time.

And the black-robed figure, after finishing speaking, still knelt silently and motionlessly.

At this time, a drop of golden liquid suddenly dripped onto the plaque, and the plaque instantly shone brightly, Liu Che frowned, waved one hand, and the light was immediately wrapped, and some words and other unreadable things vaguely appeared in the plaque.

Liu Che looked at the plaque very complicatedly, and then a look of madness and greed appeared in his eyes.

After a while, Liu Che slowly turned around and put his hands behind his back. Looking at the black-robed man condescendingly, a voice with incomparably majestic voice sounded.

"Very good, then everything will be done according to what I told you before, in addition, Tianwu Hou and Shenwu Hou, do you understand?"

"My subordinates understand."

"Well, let's go down." Saint Martial Emperor Liu Che nodded indifferently.

"No"

The black-robed figure saluted respectfully, then disappeared again. And Liu Che's eyelids never lifted half a minute. just looked at the plaque indifferently, with a look of reluctance and regret in his eyes, and then covered it, revealing a determined look in his eyes.

An extremely powerful aura swayed from Liu Che's body, which seemed to have reached the extreme of the Holy Realm, faintly carrying the coercion of the Emperor Realm.

"Time is running out, I can't do it any other way," he whispered. ”

Immediately, Liu Che waved one hand, and the plaque that had just been shining in the aperture suddenly calmed down, turning into a golden light and burrowing into Liu Che's sleeve.

Liu Che looked coldly at the dozens of other plaques in front of him, and after sneering a few times, his figure suddenly disappeared in place.

At the same time, Liu Rui and his entourage came to Laiwu Valley, which was more than 1,000 miles away from the imperial capital, and a group of more than 100 people dressed strangely surrounded Liu Rui and his party.

Liu Rui was unmoved, rushed out of the carriage, and looked at the so-called robbery with interest.

After all, the more than ten guards who guarded him were carefully selected by the palace, and they were also elite soldiers who followed his father on the battlefield in his early years. Not to mention the existence of Cheng Jiuling, the confidant of his father, although I heard that the martial arts cultivation seems to be the lowest among the six major generals, but the food thief will definitely not talk about it.

Cheng Jiuling, who was on the side, didn't care when he saw Liu Rui get out of the carriage, and in Cheng Jiuling's opinion, it was a good thing to let his son see blood earlier.

Sure enough, the bandits who rushed over were all blocked by the guards, and Cheng Jiuling just sat on the back of the horse with a grim expression.

There was no action at all, maybe he felt that the thief was not worth his hands, Liu Rui secretly guessed in his heart.

And the situation was exactly as Liu Rui guessed, the bandits were killed more than 20 people, not only could not break through the defenses of the guards, but only caused a few guards to be slightly injured, and one guard was seriously injured.

This made the bandit leader not far away feel very frightened, and looked at Liu Rui with great fear, with a very frightened look in his eyes. Cheng Jiuling looked at the bandit leader with a slight feeling, a cold look flashed in his eyes, and the momentum on his body flashed.

When the bandit leader and Cheng Jiuling met their eyes, they suddenly felt the momentum on Cheng Jiuling's body, and his body suddenly froze, like falling into an ice cellar, and he suddenly shivered.

This bandit leader surnamed Li, is a martial arts cultivator, originally also a county soldier in Xia County, Chenzhou of the Shengyuan Emperor Dynasty, with the foundation of martial arts cultivation, more than 20 years ago, when the world was in turmoil, this Li Junhou did not want to live a boring life in the army, wanted to live a luxurious life, so under the thought, he fell into the grass, and life was also enjoyable.

Gradually, he also cultivated to the peak of foundation building, at the beginning, when he listened to the report of his subordinates, he didn't care, and thought that it was a child of a certain family who went out to play, so he pondered, if it was a slight identity, let them hand over the money.

Unexpectedly, he kicked on the iron plate, and at the beginning, the former Li Junhou also sensed that something was wrong, after all, the more than ten guards were all extraordinary, and they were ruthless, and they seemed to be good at joint fighting techniques, this Li Leader knew that these guards on the other side were definitely not ordinary guards, and he could still feel the atmosphere of the battlefield exuded from them.

This group of guards is definitely a member of the military, and unlike themselves, they have definitely been on the battlefield. When he sensed that two of the more than ten guards were obviously the commanders, they also had the same foundation building cultivation as himself.

He was determined to slip away, not to mention that the man sitting firmly on horseback opposite him was even more unfathomable. The bandit leader thought inwardly. When he and Cheng Jiuling met each other's eyes.

When he felt the momentum on Cheng Jiuling's body, he was even more determined in his thoughts, so he rolled his eyes. Shouted

"Brothers, there are only a dozen of them, and our number is ten times that of them, kill one, and this leader will receive a bounty of 1,000 taels."

The bandits, who were originally cowering because of the heavy casualties, were stunned at first when they heard the words of their leader, and then their eyes flashed with greed, and they frantically pounced on Liu Rui and them. After all, before these thieves, they were basically just farmers and woodcutters who knew martial arts. Although I can feel that the person on the other side seems to be very powerful, I don't know much about it, and I don't realize the huge difference between the two parties.

Therefore, under the encouragement of the bandit leader to receive the bounty, the previous timidity disappeared completely, and only the idea of killing people and receiving the bounty remained in his mind.

At the same time, a mocking look appeared on Cheng Jiuling's face, and the same two guard commanders also showed disdainful looks. In their opinion, this rabble is simply vulnerable. It's just that because of the presence of Liu Rui in the carriage, Liu Rui's safety must be the first goal, otherwise, the guards would not have formed a defensive formation to protect the carriage, and would have formed a formation to kill the bandits.

Cheng Jiuling was just watching this fight that seemed to him to be a joke. Yu Guang glanced slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
