As soon as Xiao Rui's voice fell, Ma Gongzi appeared beside the city lord again. But this time, Ma Gongzi didn't show much panic, but said with a somewhat anxious face: "Dad, did you really let me go with them? How can I live when I go to Shengtian City?" It turned out that Xiao Rui was secretly letting Ma Gongzi hear the last few words between him and Ma City Lord.

The city lord of Ma secretly glanced at Xiao Rui, and all kinds of tastes came to his heart. Turning his head and saying to his son in a deep voice, "You must follow Elder Xiao this time, so as to ensure your safety." Go over there, obey Elder Xiao's arrangement, do things well, and fight for yourself!" At the end of speaking, there was a slight sadness in his tone, and his voice was already a little trembling.

Although Ma Gongzi is used to doing nonsense on weekdays, he is still very dependent on his own Lao Tzu. Now when I heard that I was going to be separated from my father, I was very anxious, but when I heard that it was to ensure the safety of my life, I fell silent again.

Lord Ma continued: "Your mother died early, so I am a little pampered by you, but after all, you are an adult, and you will have to be a little more responsible in the future. This time I went to Shengtian City, I must live a good life, did you hear?"

Ma Gongzi's eyes were red, but he didn't say anything, just nodded in agreement. Xiao Rui said on the side: "Don't worry, Lord Macheng, when I arrive in Shengtian City, I will show the emperor, and the emperor will definitely take good care of your son! Without further ado, we will leave." ”

The city lord of Ma was also decisive, and when he heard Xiao Rui say this, he knew that the matter was irreparable, so he arched his hand and said: "Everything depends on Elder Xiao's orders, and I hope that Elder Xiao will take care of the dogs more!"

Xiao Rui also arched his hand: "Don't worry, Lord Macheng, you will definitely see a satisfactory result when you turn around!" After speaking, he said to Luo Hong and Xia Keming: "Let's go." At the same time, he passed on a trace of divine consciousness to Luo Hong, and signaled to take Ma Gongzi away with hidden armor.

Luo Hong nodded, and the city lord found that his son was missing again, and then the surrounding gold also disappeared. The noise outside came in again, and everything was back to its original state. It's like having a dream, but I lost my son in the dream!

Lord Ma Cheng's heart felt a little sour, but then he relaxed again, after all, such an arrangement was the most beneficial to him. In this way, you can calmly deal with the pressure on both sides.

Xiao Rui and the three of them waited for the city lord to go out and retreat before they covered their faces and came out of the teahouse. This time they didn't use the hidden armor, because when Xiao Rui blocked the outside world's monitoring of their conversation just now, he let the people outside see that the Lord of Ma City was sitting with them drinking tea and chatting, so there was no need to hide his figure.

After turning a few streets, I found an inn to stay in. They did not release Ma Gongzi from the hidden armor, but Luo Hong used his divine sense to make Ma Gongzi fall into a coma, just like an animal hibernating, so that he could not eat and drink for a long time without accidents. At the same time, he will not be in a state of panic for a long time, and his spirit will not be stimulated. Now that Luo Hong is also in the advanced soul splitting realm, it is naturally easy to do this little thing. The next morning, I had breakfast and bought some items for the journey, as well as food and water. The three of them bought three more fast horses and rushed out of the city directly to Shengtian City.

When Xiao Rui left Baita City for the first time to go to Shengtian City, he and his family walked on the road and asked for directions, and most of them walked on remote paths, and their family walked for four months that time. This time, the three of them went directly to the official road, and they were fighting like flying, in order to try to gain time.

Because the city lord said that in three months, the Faro Empire may have to send troops. And on the side of the Holy Heaven Empire, because the defending generals on the border line have all been rebelled, naturally they will not report this military situation to the top, so the empire will definitely not get this news. In order to be able to inform the emperor of the news before the enemy army sends troops, and to send troops out, it will naturally take some time.

After a few days of non-stop travel, Xiao Rui and the three of them finally left Reina County and arrived at Tiandu County in the Central Plains Region, which was still a short distance away from Shengtian City. At their previous pace, it would have taken a month to get back, but only if their bodies could withstand it.

After coming to the territory of Tiandu County, Xiao Rui did not continue to speed up, but directly found the local garrison and met with the local top army general through his elder token. He wrote a secret letter with the information he knew, handed it to the general, and instructed him to send it to the Holy Heavenly City as quickly as possible and hand it over directly to the emperor.

Naturally, the army has its own set of communication methods, which are much faster than riding a horse alone. In this way, Xiao Rui and the others don't have to rush anymore.

After explaining the things in the barracks, although Xiao Rui breathed a sigh of relief, he was still slightly worried. Because after all, Lei Dulan has been a hero of the Holy Heaven Empire for many years, and he also has a good friendship with Emperor Duan Yuhai. If you only rely on this side of your own words, I don't know if the emperor will believe it.

If the emperor regarded this as his own revenge because of the conflict between himself and Thunder, what would happen? Xiao Rui really had no bottom in his heart.

Just in case, Xiao Rui decided to rush back as soon as possible, so that he could explain it to the emperor in person, and at the same time, Ma Gongzi could also be used as a witness to explain some problems. So the three of them began to hurry again, but it was still much slower than the first few days.

On the third day after leaving the barracks, the three of them were riding horses on the road when they suddenly heard a sharp sound of horses' hooves behind them. The three of them couldn't help but look back curiously, and saw two fast horses galloping on the official road in the distance.

Although there were only two horses, the earth trembled with the sound of rumbling hooves, and two billowing yellow dust rose behind the horses. The knight on the horse is tightly attached to the horse, and his movements are very skillful, which shows that he is a good hand at the horse, and the horse that sits down must be extraordinary.

Two horses swept past the three at a gallop. In the moment they passed, the three of them could already see that the knights on the horses were wearing military uniforms, and they should be sergeants of the Holy Heaven Empire. The three of them couldn't help but wonder what could make the two sergeants so anxious.

Just as they were wondering, the two horses suddenly turned their heads in front of them and galloped back. Came to Xiao Rui's trio. One of the sergeants arched his hand and said, "May I ask the three Excellencies, which one is Elder Xiao Ruixiao?"

Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart, and he hurriedly replied: "I am Xiao Rui, the two of you came in such a hurry, but is there anything important?"

When the sergeant heard this, he immediately replied: "Elder Xiao, the general received a message from the imperial city yesterday, saying that if you see Elder Xiao, please ask Elder Xiao to return quickly, there is an urgent matter at home! After receiving the information, the general ordered me to wait for many ways to set off, find the elder, and convey the message. ”

Xiao Rui was immediately shocked in his heart, and sent a message saying that there was something wrong with his family, it must be an accident in his family! And it was not an ordinary accident, otherwise he would not be in such a hurry to let himself go back.

Although he was anxious, Xiao Rui still said to the two sergeants: "Thank you two, go back and tell the general, Xiao Rui is grateful, and he will thank him again in the future!"

After saying that, Xiao Rui immediately beat his horse and galloped, eager to let the horse sitting down grow wings and fly directly back to the Holy Heavenly City. Xia Keming and Luo Hong also chased closely, and the three of them ran faster this time than in the first few days.

Xiao Rui was also a little secretly glad in his heart at this time, fortunately, his decision was to return to Shengtian City quickly, without causing any delay, otherwise he would have to go back a few days later, but even such a speed could not satisfy him in his heart.

In his anxiety, Dao Zun's voice suddenly sounded: "Xiao Rui, release your split soul, concentrate in one direction, find the farthest place, and then meditate on yourself to join the earth, merge into it, and quickly reach the farthest end!"

Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and then he was excited, knowing that Dao Zun was instructing him on how to use his abilities. He was about to release the Split Soul according to the guidance of Dao Zun, but he stopped again, turned his head and said to Luo Hong: "You two enter the Hidden Armor and put the Hidden Armor on me!"

Luo Hong didn't hesitate at all to put Xia Keming into the hidden armor first, and then got into it himself. Xiao Rui immediately felt an object fall on his right hand, and with a movement of his mind, he put the hidden armor into the storage ring, and then released his split soul according to the instructions of the Sword Venerable.

The last time Xiao Rui released the Split Soul on the mountain, the radius of the coverage had already reached more than twenty miles. Now the concentration is released in one direction, and it immediately reaches a distance of more than fifty miles. Xiao Rui meditated on everything around him in the sea of consciousness, felt the swaying of every flower and plant, the fluttering of every grain of dust, and soon felt that he was integrated into the earth.

When Xiao Rui found a purple bud that he had seen at the farthest end, he found himself standing in front of the bud! Xiao Rui was excited in his heart, and hurriedly released the split soul into the distance again!

This time, Xiao Rui did not take the official road again, but identified the direction and rushed to the Holy Heaven City at a straight distance. Now Xiao Rui can be said to be flying, even faster than flying, because the transmission of human consciousness is faster than the movement of matter.

Although Xiao Rui's divine consciousness was consumed a lot along the way, the speed was more than one or two times faster, in addition to sitting down to recover his strength, Xiao Rui could be said to be constantly using his soul to drive himself on the road. And this time it was a straight line, although it was constantly going over the mountains and mountains, but it only took nine days for Xiao Rui to see the Holy Heavenly City!

Xiao Rui still didn't pause, and the split soul found his home directly, and the next moment his body appeared in his living room, because he found that someone was talking in the living room. The moment he landed, he took out the hidden armor from the storage ring, and Luo Hong and Xia Keming also drilled out directly.

Sitting in the living room were Duan Hui and an old man, and next to them stood several servants of the house. As soon as Xiao Rui and the three appeared, Duan Hui and the others were startled. When he saw clearly that it was Xiao Rui and Xia Keming, he was happy at first, and then his face became solemn again. Although Duan Hui saw Luo Hong's true face for the first time, he also knew that Luo Hong was originally a woman, so he was not surprised to see Luo Hong.

"Xiao Rui, you're back! Come, let me introduce you first, this is Mr. Huang, the imperial doctor in the palace. Mr. Huang, this is our elder Xiao Rui, Elder Xiao. Duan Hui first introduced the two. Then he nodded at Xia Keming and Luo Hong, which was regarded as a greeting.

Hearing the identity of the other party, Xiao Rui's heart was even tighter, what did the imperial doctor do when he came to his house? Only if someone was sick would he invite the imperial doctor to come! Although he was anxious, Xiao Rui still bowed to Imperial Doctor Huang first, and then his eyes looked at Duan Hui. Xia Keming and Luo Hong also nodded to Duan Hui and arched their hands to Imperial Doctor Huang.

Duan Hui understood Xiao Rui's thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "You don't have to worry, Imperial Doctor Huang came to see your father, although his injuries are very serious, but there is no danger to his life." ”

"Injury?" Xiao Rui's heart suddenly rose with a strong anger: "Who injured my father?"
