The autumn breeze is blowing, and the leaves are fluttering.

Three days later, at noon, outside the city of the Yugama Empire.

At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves on the official road.

Zhao Zhou and Xiao Yan, who had been on the road for many days, stepped on horseback, looking at the majestic imperial capital in front of them like a giant beast crawling on the earth.

Hundreds of steel-scaled soldiers stood at the gates, armed with air-breaking bows and crossbows, on the lookout for anyone who disrupted the order and anyone who came to attack.

The people, traders, and chivalrous people outside the city are also well-behaved and line up safely.

And Zhao Zhou saw that when he and Xiao Yan came to the edge of the city, he didn't have any pretentiousness because of his superb strength, so he let Xiao Yan and himself change to lead the horse and line up in front of the city team.

"The road is still a little long, so prepare some more wine and dry food in the imperial capital first."

Then.

Zhao Zhou was holding Wu Yama, who was like an ordinary horse, and at the same time he was saying a word to Xiao Yan beside him, as if he wanted to rest for a day or two in this powerful imperial capital, preparing to find all kinds of living materials needed by different fires along the way.

But actually.

It was Zhao Zhou who was on the way yesterday when he suddenly realized that someone seemed to be following the two of them, so he thought about it for a while, and wanted to 'lure the snake out of the hole' in this imperial capital today, to see who the person who followed him was, and dared to follow him for two days!

But.

Zhao Zhou is not as careful as Yao Lao, he is afraid that that person will ruin something to himself.

It's just a simple curiosity to see what the man's purpose is.

In particular, Zhao Zhou is proficient in the 'Hundred Divine Arithmetic', even if he doesn't use any magic or fighting spirit, just by relying on some clues, he also has some guesses about the person who is tracking.

The man who followed me breathed like nothing. If it weren't for the fact that my soul realm had reached the level of Douzun, I wouldn't have been able to perceive that person's existence..'

Zhao Zhou closed his eyes for a few breaths, recalling the past two days, "And this person has such a hidden ability, according to my judgment, his realm is about above the Dou Huang, and it should be about two stars of the Dou Zong..'

And this person is so persistently following, either this person is the enemy, or the person of the Soul Palace... And only his family can send the Dou Zong powerhouse at will..'

"From this point of view, I don't know if the Dou Zong powerhouse of this Soul Hall is ready to win me over or kill me..."

Zhao Zhou thought about it, and a 'soul stone' hidden in his sleeve circled around his arm a few times.

Not surprisingly, it was precisely because of this stone that Zhao Zhou was able to guess so much useful information.

As long as this stone is there, then when I enter the imperial capital, if this person is a person from the Soul Palace, he will be able to find me. If you can't find it, then it's not a person from the Soul Palace, let alone pay attention to him so much. ’

Zhao Zhou thought about it, patted the 'Douhuang Wu Yama' beside him, and signaled it not to show any 'vision', so as not to cause any turmoil in the imperial capital, which caused countless people to be shocked, and it was a long day of chilling cicadas.

And at this time.

Xiao Yan was also holding the horse in one hand, carefully rubbing open a cowhide map with the other, looking at the 'flame' mark marked on it, and whispering to Zhao Zhou: "Elder Zhao, according to the marks on the map, that desert should be in the direction of the west."

"Yes." Zhao Zhou didn't care, took out another silver shining ring, and handed it to Xiao Yan, "This is a storage ring I got by accident, and the space is acceptable." After you enter the city, you will buy water and dry food, and in the past, this ring belonged to you, and it was for your own use. ”

'Space Ring?!' Xiao Yan took the ring and found that there were always a hundred cubic meters in the inner space, and after hearing what Elder Zhao said that the ring belonged to him, his heart tightened, and he wanted to wave his hand to push it away, feeling that this gift was too expensive.

But it was also at this time that Yao Lao said to Xiao Yan in a loud voice: "Elder Zhao gives it to you, and you take it." A strong man like Elder Zhao, how can there be a return or exchange of the things he has in his hand? ’

'Yao Lao..' Xiao Yan wanted to say something.

Just take it. Yao Lao didn't say so much to Xiao Yan at all, and then sent a voice to Zhao Zhou, who was leading the horse and lining up next to him, and said, "Elder Zhao, is there someone following us behind?" But the people of the Soul Palace? ’

'No problem. Zhao Zhou's expression remained unchanged, "Whoever comes, they are all dead souls." ’

Between Zhao Zhou's words, he didn't tell Yao Lao that even if he was a person from the Soul Palace, he specially attracted the people from the Soul Palace.

Or if you don't lead it, the people from the Soul Hall will still come, and you just speed up this time, and there is a lot less unnecessary waste of effort, so that they can go on the road early.

And when Zhao Zhou finished talking to Yao Lao about this, he changed to talk about the strange fire.

In the procession of nearby people, warriors, and merchants entering the city, they were all talking about Zhao Zhou's affairs with a burst of high debates or whispers.

"I seem to have heard that some time ago, the Yunlan Sect was exterminated by one person..."

As the whispers sounded, in a crowd about twenty meters away from Zhao Zhou, there were now seven or eight people in a small circle, talking in a whisper while following the team into the city.

Among them, the one who started the conversation was a strong man with a big waist and a round waist, his eyes were full of worship and yearning, and he was telling several people about Zhao Zhou's deeds.

Just when someone spoke, someone interrupted, and one of the middle-aged people just didn't believe it, and retorted: "No matter what you say, I am..."

"It's true!" When the strong man heard that some people didn't believe it, he added another explanation: "I came from Utan City, and I also have a surviving friend of the Yunlan Sect, so I heard about these things."

"You're talking about the eighteen-year-old Dou Zong..?" The people in the circle have heard of it, and some have not heard of it, anyway, they all started to talk about Zhao Zhou's 'eighteen-year-old Douzong'.

But at this time.

Another Douwang warrior who traveled from south to north took the words of everyone and the strong man and said: "I also heard about this, the eighteen-year-old Dou Zong is a real genius!" And now I am preparing to rest in the imperial capital for a day, and I will go to Yunlan Sect tomorrow to have a look, and find out if Yunlan Sect was really destroyed by that eighteen-year-old Dou Sect Zhao Zhou! ”

"It sounds like it's fake." Someone shook his head in disbelief at all, "Being able to step into a Dou Master at the age of eighteen in the Northwest Regions is a qualification that can be called a genius!" But the Dou Sect doesn't even have our Gama Empire, this suddenly pops up an eighteen-year-old Dou Zong, if the news is accurate, then whether it is a genius or not, it is the number one master in our empire.."

"What do you know?" The people next to them also pricked up their ears when they heard that this person seemed to be very familiar with the powerhouses in the empire, and they wanted to inquire.

After all, whether they are businessmen or ordinary farmers, they are all from the Gama Empire, and they will definitely care about what kind of masters there are in their own country, so they can inquire about gossip about the side of the matter, so that they can brag to others in the future.

It's just that the previous person may have felt that he had said too much and missed his mouth, but he chuckled and shook his head, and stopped talking, and walked out of the small circle surrounded by everyone, and instead went to the quiet queue on the other side to concentrate on queuing.

"Hey! Look at this man! ”

For a while, when everyone here saw that this person didn't say anything, they said 'boring', and began to discuss the matter of the eighteen-year-old Dou Zong again.

However, when they talk about it, when they talk about it, they still look skeptical, even if some martial artists have been to Yunlan Mountain and have personally explored it, and now they are telling the truth, it still makes everyone feel that this matter is a little incredible!

This is also Zhao Zhou's experience and past, it is really a bit of a legend! ’

"Elder Zhao, your reputation has spread here..." When Xiao Yan was lining up, he heard the sound of discussion nearby, which was proud in his heart, and whispered a word of flattery to Zhao Zhou.

And Zhao Zhou heard that he had lived for hundreds of billions of years, and he heard people say that he was a 'legend' every day, which he was accustomed to hearing, and he was not proud at all!

"It's a false name." Zhao Zhou's face was straight at this time, and he looked at Xiao Yan, who was listening attentively to the side, and taught step by step: "You need to practice hard, and you don't need to care about these false names, so that you can stand higher and farther step by step."

"Higher, farther.." Xiao Yan muttered a few words, and suddenly became enlightened, and now he feels that Zhao Zhou is not only a qualified 'genius', but even his state of mind is beyond his reach!

'If I had such qualifications, I guess I would have floated to the sky a long time ago..' Thinking of this, Xiao Yan felt as if he had climbed another high-rise building, and hurriedly waved his hand at Zhao Zhou and said, "Thank you Elder Zhao for your advice!"

"Little things."

Zhao Zhou nodded with relief, but he didn't think as much as Xiao Yan thought, and he didn't say anything to the people around the city who were talking about him, as if he really looked like a master who didn't want to be famous, and when he got in line, he took out a few ingots of silver very regularly and entered the bustling city.

Subsequently.

Zhao Zhou took Xiao Yan and bought some dry food snacks along the busy street.

At the end, after about a turn, Zhao Zhou lived in one of the most famous restaurants near the center of the imperial capital.

And Zhao Zhou lives so close to the palace today, just after that person comes to find him, he is going to make a big deal in the city, so that the entire Gama Empire and the entire Northwest Region will know his name Zhao Zhou!

However, this is not that Zhao Zhou wants to show off.

But as long as their reputation spreads, then even if there are many people who want to deal with the Xiao family in Utan City, then before they die, they have to weigh it, think twice, and be careful of their revenge.

This is also equivalent to when he leaves the Northwest Regions in the future and goes to Zhongzhou, or other places, he will also use his reputation to protect the housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion and others who have been kind to him!

But if someone really thinks that the law insists on messing with the Xiao family, and it doesn't matter how you say it, then Zhao Zhou's reputation is the same whether he passes on his reputation or not, and there is nothing he can do.

It can only be said that Zhao Zhou's hand is 'famous', and he is an anti-gentleman but not a villain.

And when Zhao Zhou lived in the courtyard of Tianzihao, thinking about how to attract the attention of the masters of the city when that person came.

With the passage of time.

The sun was setting, and the time came to about seven o'clock in the evening, and the sky was slightly dark.

But outside the imperial capital.

The black-robed old man of the Soul Palace, Deacon Wang, felt that the night was dark and the wind was high and the timing was right, so he jumped out of the grove on the official road and sneaked into the city.

Especially when he entered the city, according to the 'soul stone', he emitted fluctuations, turned around a few times, and finally came to the street in front of the restaurant where Zhao Zhou lived.

Now.

It wasn't around 10 p.m.

The central street in the bustling imperial capital is full of people coming and going, and with the hawkers' selling, many sons and subordinates wander back and forth between the nearby green buildings, and the happy sound of men and women laughing seems to spread all over here.

"Zhao Zhou is in this restaurant, hey, it's not a green building yet.." Deacon Wang, who was dressed in a black robe, came here and looked at the restaurant where Zhao Zhou lived, but he didn't attract the attention of other people nearby.

Because many chivalrous people, or young masters with names and surnames, when they come and go to this street, they may not want to be recognized by acquaintances as visiting the nearby green buildings, so they all wear hats or cloaks to cover themselves tightly.

Only when it is useful will the disguise be quietly withdrawn.

And Deacon Wang didn't care whether they recognized him or not, he had to touch the storage ring on his hand, and finally checked it, and saw that there were not only some similar treasures in the ring, but also an object similar to the 'Cloud Piercing Arrow' specially used to call the support of the Soul Palace, and then he stepped into this restaurant.

And at this time.

Before he entered the inn, he also took out this 'cloud-piercing arrow', afraid that if he couldn't negotiate, he would need to use the 'doorway'.

With Zhao Zhou's qualifications, it can be said that it is difficult to find for thousands of years, I hope this Zhao Zhou knows each other. Otherwise, his qualifications would not belong to him... Our soul hall will have a kind of exercise that can take people's souls..'

Deacon Wang pondered, pulled down his cloak, and revealed a pale and strange face, and there was a hideous smile on his face, which was ready to talk with a friendly smile, and to salute before the soldiers. ’

"I.." It's just that his appearance is really appalling, and the people who are eating in the restaurant are startled, thinking that they have seen a ghost!

And at the same time.

Zhao Zhou was also eating on the first floor here, and he also saw Deacon Wang who stepped into the restaurant and took off his cloak.

"But Zhao Zhou?" When Deacon Wang saw Zhao Zhou looking over, he bowed his hand, smiling more and more terrifyingly, but said familiarly: "You can call me Deacon Wang."

"Deacon Wang." Zhao Zhou thought about it, and felt that this person's aura was exactly the same as that of the person who was following him, and then he looked like the wind and rain, but it didn't look like a human, and he also knew that this deacon Wang was a person from the Soul Palace!

So, Zhao Zhou was unceremonious to the people of this Soul Palace, and he didn't give face at all, but he still returned a salute before saying: "I don't know what Deacon Wang is looking for me Zhao Zhou, if you have anything to say, just say it here."

"Okay.." Deacon Wang's face couldn't say anything, and he didn't care about the people in the restaurant looking at him, but acted his own way, so he said directly to Zhao Zhou: "My soul.. I'm going to invite Brother Zhao Zhou to sit with me, I don't know if I can give face? ”

"Face?" Zhao Zhou saw Deacon Wang nodding, but he felt that nonsense was useless, and said bluntly: "Who is your brother, if I don't give you face, what should you do?"

"You!"

Deacon Wang said all the good things, and when he saw that Zhao Zhou was unreasonable compared to their Soul Palace, he was angry for a while, and he was almost about to do it!

After all, he has been walking in the Northwest Regions for many years, and he is respected every day, and he has never been treated so 'rudely'!

However, he immediately thought that his soul hall belonged to a 'hidden force' and was not easy to leak.

In addition, after he might not be able to take down Zhao Zhou, he shook his head, and was ready to retreat first, notify the hall master and others, and when he was completely sure, he would give Zhao Zhou a ruthless blow! I don't want to talk nonsense with this Zhao Zhou, who doesn't get in!

"I thought that this Zhao Zhou was not very old, and he should be very good at talking..' Deacon Wang pondered, turned around and prepared to leave.

But when Zhao Zhou saw this person, he came and left, but he stood up, stepped out, stood in front of the door, and stopped Deacon Wang and said, "Deacon Wang." Since you have come all the way with me, do you think I, Zhao Zhou, will let you go? ”

Zhao Zhou's words fell, and his fighting spirit turned around, and the space fluctuated slightly, fully showing the strength of the five-star Douzong!

This is also Zhao Zhou's cultivation from the early stage of the three-star Douzong to the five-star peak of the Douzong in just half a month!

At the same time, accompanied by the neighing of horses in the courtyard, a ray of black light flashed in front of Deacon Wang!

It turned out that Zhao Zhou had known that I was following him... That.. Is this a trap? ’

At this time.

When Deacon Wang saw that Zhao Zhou's cultivation was far higher than himself, and there was also a Douhuang-level demonic beast in charge, he knew that something was wrong, so he stepped on the ground with a bang, causing the hard bluestone floor of the restaurant to 'rumble' into a spider's web!

And Deacon Wang jumped up in one step with the help of the anti-shock force, hit the roof of the house with a 'bang', and stood in the air at a height of 100 zhang, ready to escape!

But at the next moment, Zhao Zhou chased after him, climbed into the air, and stood in front of Deacon Wang again.

"Deacon Wang, your strength is about the same, but you lack a good horse." Zhao Zhou didn't kill him, just sat on the horse and locked him with a gas machine to prevent him from escaping.

Because the masters of the Gama Empire have not yet arrived, even if Zhao Zhou kills a Dou Sect now, it will not be able to play a role in deterring and publicizing fame.

"Is it the Dou Huang, or the Dou Sect powerhouse?" And when the people in the restaurant saw the two people who were talking well just now, they flew out of the air in an instant, and they were so frightened that they looked at the sky through the big hole in the roof, but the distance was too far and they couldn't see clearly.

Including the people on the street outside the restaurant, they also changed from noisy to silent, and everyone stared at each other, trying to see the two powerhouses above the Dou Huang in the air!

Of course, many of them also noticed the majestic Wuyama, and they were envious, and they also wanted this Douhuang Divine Horse!

"There are space fluctuations, and there is a Dou Sect coming to our imperial capital!"

And at this moment, there were also a few streamers flashing in the imperial capital, quickly attacking this side!

Among them, there was an old man flying in the air, and the rest of the people were fighting and turning wings, but in just a dozen breaths, they all came to the vicinity around the restaurant.

And this old man of Douhuang is so nervous, because he, as the protector of the Gama Empire, finds that there is a strong man of the Dou Sect on his territory, and he must come forward to say it, so as not to cause anything bad to happen in the imperial capital.

'If Douzong fights, I don't know how many people will die..' When the old man came here and looked at Zhao Zhou and Deacon Wang, he found that the space was faintly fluctuating, and it was no surprise that both of them were Dou Zong!

That Uyama is even a Douhuang-level demonic beast!

So, they came and went, but for a while, because they and others were not strong enough, they didn't know how to persuade each other.

But.

Zhao Zhou saw that everyone was looking at him, but he suddenly said to Deacon Wang, who was silent but wanted to get out of his own qi lock: "Little Douzong, you dare to sneak attack me Zhao Zhou..."

Words fall.

Zhao Zhou rode his horse and soared, and an aura that was about to approach Douzun broke out, and in an instant, he beheaded the frightened and inexplicable Deacon Wang under the horse, making his body fall in half and fall to the ground on the street, frightening passers-by to flee one after another, and few people stayed.

"That.. Dou Zong was killed with one blow! "And the patron saint of the Gama Empire, before he could say a word, he saw that Zhao Zhou killed a Douzong powerhouse with one move, and he was so frightened that he almost fell from the sky!

'He is. . . That Zhao Zhou of Utan City..' The rest of the Dou Wang, as well as Dan King Guhe, were also shocked by Zhao Zhou's strength, and they didn't dare to act rashly, and they didn't dare to retreat without permission.

And the old man and the others are not simple people, of course, during this time, when they heard about Zhao Zhou's matter, they sent to confirm it.

But I never thought that Zhao Zhou could come to them today to be a 'guest'.

"Zhao.."

In the end, it was the patron saint of the Gama Empire who remembered that this was the imperial capital, and the 'eighteen-year-old Douzong powerhouse Zhao Zhou' that I heard during this time was a guest from afar.

Then why didn't he dare to speak, and he couldn't snub the distinguished guest, so he smiled and bowed his hand, and whispered to Zhao Zhou and asked, "You.. You are the predecessor of Zhao Zhou in Utan City."

"It's Zhao Zhou."

Zhao Zhou said a word, glanced at the few Douwang powerhouses who didn't dare to move nearby, and didn't say anything more, but used a wisp of fighting spirit to surround Xiao Yan and his mount on the ground, and accompanied himself.

He rode on the Wuyama, and then with the neighing of the Wuyama's hooves, the two "clicks" broke the air, and disappeared into the night air in the imperial capital in an instant.
