Volume 1 Accession to the WTO Chapter 28 The Mountain Rain is Coming

Lin Hao and the three of them entered Mingyang City, and under the hospitality of Gu Qiufeng, they stayed in the City Lord's Mansion.

Gu Qiufeng, as the Three Emperors of the Kamikaze, has a close personal relationship with Chu Tianlan, and with He Guofu, a whisker and a horse, there is inevitably a competition on the wine table. After being full of wine and food, Lin Hao hurriedly left the table, leaving Chu Tianlan alone and the three of them still pushing the lamp and changing the lamp, and drinking until dawn.

It was rare to have a peaceful night, and Lin Hao slept soundly all night. It was probably the first time he had slept so peacefully since he left home. So much so that when he woke up the next day, he couldn't help but stretch a long lazy waist before getting up to wash.

Pushing open the window, colorful flowers bloomed delicately outside the window, the dew drops on the petals looked crystal clear under the morning light, and even the air carried a strange fragrance, Lin Hao took a deep breath, his brain fell into an ethereal, and sighed lightly: "This feeling, it's really been a long time!"

Lin Hao stood in front of the window and watched quietly for a long time before reluctantly turning away.

When they walked to the front of the hall, they saw that Chu Tianlan and the three of them were still sitting at the wine table, each holding a big bowl, and they kept urging each other.

There were empty jars of wine around him, apparently after a night of drinking.

Seeing this scene, Lin Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head, the three of them can dissolve the alcohol in their bodies through spiritual power, but they can't stand such a binge drinking! Even Chu Tianlan, who has cultivated the highest, has a rosy color on his cheeks, and he is already drunk.

"Master, it's not too early, isn't it time for us to go!"

Lin Hao walked to Chu Tianlan's side and reminded.

When the three of them heard Lin Hao's voice, they hurriedly turned their minds around, urging the spiritual power in their bodies to quickly dissolve the wine.

After all, Gu Qiufeng and Chu Tianlan were both emperor-level or above cultivators, and the wine strength accumulated throughout the night seemed a little insignificant in front of their spiritual power, and they came to their senses after a while.

Gu Qiufeng stood up and sighed and said: "It's really a thousand cups of wine for a confidant, and before you know it, the sky is already bright! I think back to the last time I drank with Brother Chu, it was three years ago, it was really like a world away!"

"Brother, I also miss it very much, if it weren't for the trip to the imperial capital that can't be delayed, I really want to stay here and drink with my brother Gu for three days and three nights!" Chu Tianlan took Gu Qiufeng's hand and said reluctantly.

The two of them sympathized with each other, and Lin Hao was quite moved, and he couldn't bear to disturb it for a while.

After being silent for a while, Chu Tianlan took the lead and said, "Brother Gu, the actions of the imperial capital are very important, the relationship between you and my brothers, let's talk about it later!"

Gu Qiufeng nodded and said, "Okay, this is the matter, Brother Chu will definitely invite the lord of the country to Mingyang, and the three of my brothers will have a good drink!"

"That's natural, brother, I still have a big matter to discuss with Brother Gu at that time!" Chu Tianlan said pointedly.

"Oh, what's the big deal?" asked Gu Qiufeng suspiciously.

Chu Tianlan smiled slightly, and replied in a vague manner: "It's too early to say at this time, you will know when you meet the Lord of the Kingdom!"

Gu Qiufeng glanced at He Guofu, who was still a little drunk, bowed his head slightly, and said, "Since this is the case, then brother, I will wait for the two brothers in Mingyang!"

After the words, Gu Qiufeng insisted on sending the three of them to the city gate, and then said goodbye.

Out of Mingyang City, the three of them went all the way forward, there were no twists and turns on the way, and after another seven days, they finally came to the gate of the imperial capital.

Compared with the cities passing along the way, the imperial capital of the kamikaze country looks extremely majestic, and the city wall of Qingyang City is close to 100 zhang because of the defense against demonic beasts, which is already very tall, but the city wall of the imperial capital is even more than it, with a height of 150 zhang.

The walls of the city were filled with various colored magic crystals, combined into exquisite magic circles, and countless magic circles and the row of black demon spirit cannons above the city tower reflected each other, creating a heavy pressure like a mountain. It makes the crowd standing under the tower feel as small as ants.

"Master, you're finally here!"

Before Lin Hao and the three of them arrived at the city gate, they saw a figure running towards them quickly, which was Mo Wendao, who had not been seen for many days.

"Old Mo!"

"Butler Mo!"

Chu Tianlan and He Guofu responded in unison.

Mo Wendao walked to the three of them, bowed to Chu Tianlan, and when he got up, he threw a humble look at Lin Hao, indicating that it was inconvenient to salute because of He Guofu's presence.

I haven't seen him for months, Mo Wendao looks much younger than before, his original silver-white beard is mixed with a few wisps of blue, and the wrinkles on his cheeks are much lighter.

Without waiting for Chu Tianlan to speak, He Guofu suddenly said in surprise: "Steward Mo, you ...... Your cultivation, how can you ...... How did you reach the king level!!"

Mo Wendao raised his head and said with a smile: "Hehe...... I haven't seen him for a few years, and the city lord has always been good?"

"I'm very good, Steward Mo, tell me quickly, how did you do it, the last time I saw you, you were only at the fourth level of the Sword Venerable, how come in just two years, you have already broken through to the Sword King!" He Guofu saw Mo Wendao talking about him left and right, and hurriedly asked.

Chu Tianlan and Lin Hao glanced at each other and smiled tacitly.

"It's not a secret, the old man's promotion to the sword king is all due to the master's gift, as for the process, please forgive the old man for not being able to say!" Mo Wendao turned his gaze to Lin Hao, his eyes were full of reverence and gratitude.

He Guofu didn't know that the "master" in Mo Wendao's mouth was actually talking about Lin Hao, and mistakenly thought that Chu Tianlan used some secret method to help Mo Wendao improve his cultivation, so he turned to him and said: "Brother Chu, you are not authentic, there is such a good thing, you have to take care of my brother and me!"

Chu Tianlan looked at the look of longing in He Guofu's eyes, shook his head helplessly, and said: "Lao Mo was able to break through the king level, relying on his years of cultivation, I just shared a little experience with him, if I really have the ability to improve people's cultivation out of thin air, then the sword king of Wuyang City is still dissatisfied!"

He Guofu seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water, and his originally high interest instantly calmed down, and he sighed: "That's right!"

Chu Tianlan ignored He Guofu and asked Mo Wendao, "Old Mo, how do you know that we will arrive today?"

"Back to the master, it was the lord of the country who ordered the old slave to wait for you here, and the old slave has been waiting here for several days!" After Mo Wendao explained, he said: "By the way, the lord of the country also said that let you go to the palace immediately after arriving at the imperial capital, he has something important to negotiate with the lord!"

"Really, let's go now!"

When Chu Tianlan heard this, he motioned for Mo Wendao to board the carriage, and Mo Wendao took the reins and drove the carriage towards the imperial capital.

From the gate of the imperial capital to the imperial palace, there are strict guards along the way, three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and the lowest cultivation of the Praetorian Guards in the city are all great sword masters, which shows the depth of an empire.

Mo Wendao had Zuo Wenzhao's warrant on his body, and the forbidden army was allowed to leave on the way, and he didn't delay much along the way, even so, the four of them, a horse and a cart, also shuttled through the city for nearly an hour before arriving at the palace.

After entering the palace, He Guofu was taken by a guard commander to the palace where several other city lords were placed, while Mo Wendao led Lin Hao and the others to Zuo Wenzhao's imperial study.

"Brother Chu, you are here!"

As soon as Lin Hao and the three of them walked to the door, they heard Zuo Wenzhao's loud voice coming from the imperial study.

"Wuyang Chu Tianlan meets the Lord of the Kingdom!"

Chu Tianlan saw Zuo Wenzhao ushering in, and hurriedly leaned over to salute, Mo Wendao also knelt down, while Lin Hao stood in place with a confused expression, as if he didn't see Zuo Wenzhao.

"Brother Chu, hurry up and excuse me!"

Zuo Wenzhao helped Chu Tianlan up with both hands, turned his head and instructed the guards in the room: "I have an important matter to discuss with the Lord of Chu City, you can retreat first!"

"Yes!"

Several guards in the imperial study responded in unison and retreated.

After confirming that the guards had gone away, Zuo Wenzhao solemnly knelt down in front of Lin Hao and bowed: "Zuo Wenzhao greets the master!"

"Get up!" Lin Hao responded lightly, and when he saw Zuo Wenzhao get up, he said: "From now on, you and I will see each other, and there is no need to make this big gift!"

"Yes, master!"

Zuo Wenzhao lowered his head and lifted a chair behind Lin Hao.

Lin Hao was not polite, he sat down directly, and said, "Steward Mo, tell me about your trip to Sacred Heart City!"

It turned out that the kamikaze messenger who went to Sacred Heart City that day was actually dressed as Mo Wendao, and when he heard Lin Hao ask about this matter, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his head and replied: "Master, as you expected, the old slave's appearance has not been recognized, and with the help of the Lord of the Left Country, the old slave has not encountered too many difficulties in the Sacred Heart City, and according to the old slave's observation, Situ Juetian's status in the Sacred Heart City does not seem to be as respected as imagined, and even an immortal-level leader of the Arbitration Knights does not seem to take him seriously!"

"Oh, it seems that the rumors are true, in this way, we have done a great favor to Sacred Heart City by choosing Situ Juetian!" Lin Hao put one hand on his cheek, pondered for a while, and said: "Lord Zuo, you have contributed a lot to the fact that Huang Tong and the two were buried in the divine wind this time!"

"The master is serious, this is just a matter of the subordinates' ability, as long as it is helpful to the master's plan, the subordinates will definitely do their best!" Zuo Wenzhao recalled the conversation with Lin Hao in Qingyang City, and a fine light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Lin Hao looked at the longing in Zuo Wenzhao's eyes, didn't say anything, raised his hand and summoned Mo Wendao to his front and whispered.

Mo Wendao listened to Lin Hao's words, the expression on his face kept changing, and when Lin Hao finished speaking, he couldn't help but raise his head and ask: "Master, the old slave's cultivation is not enough to be up to this great task, is it too early to take this step now?"

"You just do what I say, if necessary, I will send someone to assist you, don't worry!" Lin Hao gave Mo Wendao a firm look and waved his hand to signal him to leave first.

Receiving Lin Hao's comfort, Mo Wendao, who was originally worried, suddenly gained confidence, turned around and walked towards the door, and the sound of heavy footsteps echoed in the imperial study. In just a few months, Lin Hao's slightly immature body has built a mountain in his heart, and a few simple words can make his floating mind calm and full.

Chu Tianlan looked at Mo Wendao's departing back, faintly guessed Lin Hao's intentions, bowed his head and said in his ear, "Young master, do you want me to talk to Lao Qi?"

"No need, this matter can only be done by him himself, if it is the hand of a dummy, it may backfire!" Lin Hao shook his head and said, "Uncle Chu doesn't need to worry too much, this Mo steward of yours is much more capable than you imagined!"

"What does the young master mean?" Chu Tianlan asked with a puzzled expression.

Lin Hao smiled and said, "Let's wait and see, one day he will surprise you!"

Chu Tianlan recalled the experience of getting along with Mo Wendao, and was puzzled, but Lin Hao didn't say it, and it was inconvenient for him to ask again, so he could only put his doubts in the bottom of his heart.

Mo Wendao's chess game was properly arranged, Lin Hao began to think about the move in front of him, he turned his head and asked Zuo Wenzhao: "What about Situ Yezhen? He has been coming to the kamikaze for a few days, what do you think of this person?"

After being silent for a while, Zuo Wenzhao raised his head, looked at the sky through the door, took a deep breath, and then slowly spit out three words: "He...... Very strong!"
