Chapter 120: The Royal Family Comes
March 30, 1229 in the Purple Cloud Calendar, late at night.
Sou!!
A behemoth, cut through the sky from the clouds, as if turning into a gust of wind, entered the sky above the Chu King City, and came directly to the high altitude of the Chu King Mansion.
After the behemoth paused above the clouds high above the Chu Palace, a neutral voice sounded on its back at the right time, "Go down!"
Suddenly, the behemoth broke through the clouds and fell towards the Chu Palace.
After the clouds dispersed, a huge roc bird appeared in shape, its wings spread out to a width of eight meters, and it was majestic.
The Dapeng bird was pale blue, and the pupils of a pair of eyes were gray, and it didn't take long for it to fall in the vast front yard of the Chu Palace.
"Who?!"
"Who?!"
......
The Dapeng bird landed, the movement was not small, and the two teams of guards in charge of patrolling in the palace of the king of Chu shouted loudly, and surrounded them from all directions, and the head of the spear in his hand flashed a sharp and cold cold light in the moonlight.
It's just that when the two guards saw the behemoth in front of them clearly through the moonlight, their faces changed drastically, "Fly...... Birds and monsters?!"
The Dapeng bird in front of him is two meters tall and has a huge body, like a small hill, which invisibly brings a strong sense of oppression.
"It's me. ”
With an old voice sounding, on the back of the Dapeng bird, an elderly figure flew down and appeared in front of a group of government guards.
The moonlight fell on one of the old man's faces, causing a group of palace guards to turn their faces straight, and then bowed down to the old man in unison, "Second Elder." ”
Obviously, the old man is the second elder of the Chu Palace, Xiang Donghua.
However, after Xiang Donghua landed, he didn't take care of these palace guards, but turned to look at Dapeng Bird's back, and bowed down respectfully, "Commander Xiao, I'll take you to see the prince." “
"Good. ”
An indifferent voice came from the back of the Dapeng Bird, and then a burly figure jumped down from the back of the Dapeng Bird, and the movements were like flowing water, which was smoother than Xiang Donghua's movements just now.
The moonlight shrouded and fell, revealing the owner of this burly figure, a middle-aged man in golden armor, who looked nearly sixty years old, with half a hundred hair, a beard and half white face, tiger eyebrows and big eyes, not angry and arrogant.
"This is the commander of the Praetorian Guard of the Yunyang Imperial Palace, Xiao Jiancheng, Xiao Commander. ”
Xiang Donghua, who was afraid that a group of government guards would snub people, said to a group of government guards in a solemn voice.
After a group of palace guards were stunned for a moment, they all looked horrified, and bowed respectfully to the middle-aged man, "I've seen Commander Xiao!"
"Hmm. ”
Xiao Jiancheng nodded lightly at a group of palace guards, and then looked at Xiang Donghua, "Let's go." ”
"Yes. ”
When Xiang Donghua heard this, he immediately led the way in front and went to the residence of the prince of their Chu Palace.
After the two left, the group of palace guards in the Chu Wangfu gradually came back to their senses.
"Oh my God......! It is said that this Xiao Jiancheng had already entered the Great Consummation of Qi Ten years ago, and the strength of the martial arts monks of the Yunyang Imperial Family could also rank in the forefront. ”
A guard whispered.
"This Commander Xiao came to our Western Chu Wangling once four years ago, but he didn't enter the Chu King City, and went directly to the Lost Forest...... The purpose of his visit that time was to hunt the two golden-crowned eagles in the Lost Forest. ”
"Well, I know that, too. It is said that on that occasion, although Commander Xiao was a martial arts monk of the Great Perfection of Qi Gathering, in front of the two golden-crowned eagles, he still made a disgraced face, and even several people accompanying him died. ”
"The Golden Crowned Eagle has the advantage of flying, although it is only a small consummation demon beast that gathers qi, but it is not afraid of the great consummation martial arts monk at all. ”
"It seems that Commander Xiao came this time with the intention of being ashamed. ”
"If you don't know for sure, he's definitely not coming. ”
"If I guessed correctly, this Dapeng bird in front of me is the Qi-gathering little consummation demon beast Cang Yunpeng domesticated by the royal family of Yunyang Kingdom!"
......
Among this group of palace guards in the Chu Palace, there are many well-informed people who know that the royal family of Yunyang Kingdom has a small consummation demon beast Cang Yunpeng.
"Even Cang Yunpeng has been dispatched, it seems that the royal family of Yunyang Kingdom is determined to win this time!"
"Four years ago, if Commander Xiao had come with Cang Yunpeng, the two golden-crowned eagles in the Lost Forest would definitely not have jumped now. ”
"The combination of the Qi Gathering Great Perfection Martial Dao Monk and the Qi Gathering Little Perfection Demon Beast, who have been famous for many years, to deal with those two Golden Crowned Eagles, is it still easy to capture?"
......
Just when a group of palace guards of the Chu Palace, because of the shock, did not disperse for a long time, Xiang Donghua, the second elder of the Chu Palace, had already brought Xiao Jiancheng, the commander of the palace guards of the Yunyang Kingdom, to the residence of the prince of Chu.
"Lord Wang. ”
Standing in the spacious courtyard, Xiang Donghua called out to one of the rooms.
Although it was dark at night, the room was brightly lit, and the people inside had clearly not yet fallen asleep.
"Second Elder, you're back so soon?"
As Xiang Donghua's voice fell, a voice full of surprise came from inside.
Soon after the sound came out, with the sound of 'creaking' the door opening, the figure of Xiang Xiong, the prince of Chu, strode out of the room.
Now Xiang Xiong, who is only wearing a nightgown, is obviously ready to sleep.
"Commander Xiao?"
As soon as he walked out of the door, Xiang Xiong saw Xiao Jiancheng standing beside Xiang Donghua, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while.
He never expected that the royal family of Yunyang Kingdom would send this person this time.
Four years ago, the person in front of him, in order to hunt the two golden-crowned eagles, had already come to the West Chu Wangling once, but in the end he returned in vain, and even several people who accompanied him died.
In his opinion, although four years have passed, the person in front of him may still not be able to deal with the two golden-crowned eagles.
"Lord Chu, long time no see. ”
Xiao Jiancheng nodded lightly at Xiang Xiong.
Xiang Xiong in front of him, although he is the prince who controls one side of Wang Ling, but in terms of his status in Yunyang, he is not as high as him, and the other party's strength is far inferior to him, so he doesn't need to salute at all.
On the contrary, it was Xiang Xiong, after being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly bowed down and saluted Xiao Jiancheng, "Xiang Xiong, the king of Western Chu, has seen Commander Xiao. ”
Although Xiang Xiong didn't think that Xiao Jiancheng had the ability to deal with those two golden crowned eagles, with Xiao Jiancheng's strength and status, he still didn't dare to slack off.
"It seems that the prince of Chu has no confidence in me. ”
Xiao Jiancheng has lived most of his life, how could he not see Xiang Xiong's performance?
Commander Xiao laughed, but Xiang Xiong didn't dare. ”
Xiang Xiong smiled awkwardly.
"Lord Wang. ”
And at this moment, Xiang Donghua, who was standing on the side, spoke, "Commander Xiao, since he returned in front of the two golden-crowned eagles four years ago, he began to practice the art of bow and crossbow hard, and later spent a lot of money to exchange for a second-rate arrow martial art "Rainbow Arrow" from the hands of the second elder of the Medicine King Valley. ”
"The incident four years ago, Commander Xiao was ashamed and always wanted to be ashamed. ”
As Xiang Donghua's voice fell, Xiang Xiong's eyes suddenly lit up, "Four years of hard practice in the art of bow and crossbow?
If just now, he still didn't have much confidence in the Xiao Commander in front of him.
Now, then, I have confidence again.
With the achievements of this Xiao Commander in martial arts, it is enough to show that he is a talented person, and he has practiced the art of bow and crossbow for four years, and he will definitely achieve something.
Coupled with the fact that he had cultivated a second-rate archery martial art "Rainbow Arrow", with the strength of this Xiao Commander to gather qi and consummation, it should not be difficult to shoot those two golden crowned eagles.
"The most important thing is ......"
At the same time as Xiang Xiong's eyes lit up, Xiang Donghua continued: "Commander Xiao came this time with the cangyunpeng domesticated by the royal family. ”
Almost at the moment when Xiang Donghua's words fell, Xiang Xiong's pupils couldn't help but shrink sharply, "Cang...... Cang Yunpeng?!"
Now, he finally knew why this second elder of their Chu Palace's Mansion could come back in such a short time.
Under normal circumstances, with the mount of this second elder and the foot strength of the Sevenfold Demon Beast Lightning Leopard, it would take at least nearly four months to travel back and forth between the Chu King City and the Yunyang Kingdom Imperial City.
And now, just over two months later, he's back.
Now it seems that he came back on Cangyunpeng with the Xiao Commander in front of him.
"Haha......"
After Xiang Xiong came back to his senses, he couldn't help laughing heartily, and the laughter stopped for a while.
After the laughter stopped, Xiang Xiong looked at Commander Xiao again, and his eyes burst with extremely powerful confidence, "Commander Xiao, there is Cang Yunpeng here...... This time, you'll be able to kill those two Golden-Crowned Eagles with ease!"
"Commander Xiao, when are you going to make a move?"
Xiang Xiong's face was straight and he asked.
"It's been a dusty journey, I want to freshen up first, get some sleep, and start tomorrow morning. ”
Xiao Jiancheng said lightly: "Before that, I hope that Lord Chu can send someone to keep an eye on that young man, don't let him run away." If he's going to run, wake me up right away!"
"Yes. ”
While Xiang Xiong respectfully responded, he asked Xiang Donghua, the second elder of the Chu Palace, to arrange a place for Xiao Jiancheng to rest, while he himself returned to the room to change his clothes first.
"Lord Wang. ”
In the room, Fan Ji, who was wearing a nightgown and looked charming and moving, asked while watching Xiang Xiong change his clothes: "That Commander Xiao, plus Cang Yunpeng of the Yunyang Kingdom Imperial Family, should be foolproof against that young man and the two golden-crowned eagles beside him, right?"
"As long as the boy doesn't run away, it's naturally foolproof. ”
After Chu Xiong changed his clothes, he hurriedly went out, "Now, I'll go to Xue Meng and ask him to send someone to keep an eye on Chu Xiu Inn, in case someone sends a message to inform the young man to leave." ”
"Princess, tomorrow, Commander Xiao and Cang Yunpeng will definitely be able to help you avenge the destruction of the Fan family!"
"Tonight, you can sleep peacefully. ”
When Chu Xiong went out, there were some palace guards who happened to change shifts and rest, and the news of the arrival of Xiao Jiancheng, the commander of the palace guards of Yunyang Kingdom, and Cang Yunpeng came out of the Chu Palace.
