Xuanwu Continent, Xuanwu Dynasty, Huangji Palace. At this moment, an old man in a yellow robe sat on the golden dragon chair above the main hall, and under the dragon chair was a group of ministers prostrate, and after thanking the emperor, these ministers all cautiously exited the main hall. After the ministers dispersed, the yellow-robed old man on the dragon chair took a sip of the tea in his hand, and then was about to get up with the support of the courtiers, when suddenly a voice sounded in his ears: "Your Majesty, Yuwen Tuo, the leader of the Shadow Guard, has something important to report!" ”

Hearing this, the old man in the yellow robe sat down again, stretched out his hand, signaled to step back left and right, and then said, "Come out!" As the voice of the yellow-robed old man resounded through the hall, a figure appeared above the hall out of thin air, and the person who came was wearing black armor, and bowed to the yellow-robed old man on the dragon chair and said: "Back to Your Majesty, according to the report from my subordinates, I found that someone had entered Linjia Village and stayed in Linjia Village for one night!" ”

The old man in the yellow robe gently stroked the armrest of the dragon chair, let out a meaningful "oh", and then asked, "Do you know who entered Linjia Village?" "That's right, the old man in the yellow robe is the supreme emperor of the Xuanwu Dynasty, Emperor Wuji. The emperor's voice was extremely peaceful, but in Yuwen Tuo's ears, it sounded like a stern accusation, and at this moment he was already sweating like rain, kneeling in the hall, and did not dare to raise his head for a moment.

Emperor Wuji has been in charge of the Xuanwu Dynasty for many years, and has always shown people with a kind face, under the rule of the emperor, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country and the people are safe. However, only the people around the emperor know that the emperor has two faces, he is kind in front of the stage, and ruthless behind the stage, especially when he enters the court as an official, and he will lose his life if he is not careful. Moreover, the emperor has always liked to listen to the results first, and then listen to the process, like this Yuwen Tuo's report, although the emperor didn't say anything on the surface, he was already unhappy at the moment, and Yuwen Tuo was also aware of his gaffe, so he knelt on the main hall nervously.

When the emperor saw Yuwen Tuo below, he was very satisfied, as long as they were afraid of themselves, then their control of the dynasty was complete. Although he likes to be suspicious, after all, he is the Shadow Guard next to him, the person he is most close to, and Emperor Wuji forgave Yuwen Tuo's sins: "Okay, Yuwen Tuo will talk back!" When Yuwen Tuo heard this, he quickly kowtowed three times to thank Tian'en, and then stood up and hugged his fists and reported: "Your Majesty, according to the report from the Shadow Guard Sentinel, this person claims to be from the Hongmeng Star Domain, and it is unknown which domain he came from, and this person only stayed in Linjia Village for one night, and left in a hurry the next day!" ”

Hearing this, the emperor's eyes widened with anger, and he smashed the armrest of the golden dragon chair with one palm, and shouted: "Bastard! Bold Yuwen Tuo, are you guilty? This loud noise really frightened Yuwen Tuo, and he knelt on the ground again with a thud, and the guards outside the main hall quickly pushed the door in when they heard the sound, rushed in and surrounded Yuwen Tuo, and made a gesture to take Yuwen Tuo down.

"Stand down!" Hearing this, all the guards turned around and saluted the emperor, and then slowly retreated. By the time the door of the main hall was closed again, Yuwen Tuo had already collapsed to the ground, but at this time, he could hear the emperor say: "Yuwen Tuo, you have been following me for decades, how can you still make such a low-level mistake?" This Shadow Guard Leader, it looks like you don't want to be it! ”

Hearing this, Yuwen Tuo got up and knelt down again, and then replied tremblingly: "Your Majesty is angry, please let your subordinates explain!" The Emperor nodded and said, "Hmm! Yuwen Tuo, you have been with me for so many years, I am really curious about why you make mistakes repeatedly, I give you a chance, you can explain it well! ”

Yuwen Tuo was once again pardoned, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Your Majesty, this fact is not that the subordinates did not report it truthfully, but they really don't know the details, because there is a divine soul around that person, according to the sentry report, the strength of that divine soul is far beyond the strong people of the Dao realm, so the subordinates concluded that the true body of this divine soul may still be in the upper realm, because the sentinel was afraid of startling the grass and snakes, and did not dare to approach, so he did not hear the content of their conversation! Yuwen Tuo paused, and observed that the emperor's expression had recovered a little, so his idle heart fell a little, and then said: "Your Majesty, the person from the Nether Realm left in a hurry the next day, thinking that he just entered Linjia Village by mistake, please let Your Majesty know it!" ”

The emperor nodded, ordered Yuwen Tuo to send someone to monitor Chu Ran, and immediately reported any abnormal movements, and then retreated from Yuwen Tuo. The Emperor stood up and paced back and forth above the main hall, thinking to himself, 'These sinners are not dead yet, forget it, they can't afford to make any waves!' Thinking of this, he no longer thought about it, and left the hall with the help of the courtiers.

Yunqing realm, on the flying boat. While the two were talking, Nangong Wang's voice came from outside the door: "Brother Daoxuan, Senior Sister Lan, please move to the side of the ship, how about we drink and enjoy the scenery together?" Hearing that Nangong Wang was so elegant, Chu Ran and Lan Yue looked at each other and smiled, and then came to open the room together.

Everyone came to the side of the ship, good wine and good food have been placed on a table, Nangong Wang beckoned everyone to sit together, everyone tasted the wine and food, admired the light breeze of the clouds, and unconsciously forgot the passage of time, until the flying boat was close to the royal capital, then withdrew the wine and food, dispersed the banquet, and went back to the room to pack up and prepare to get off the ship. As the flying boat slowly fell, everyone went to the side of the boat under the leadership of the servants, and then Chu Ran asked: "Brother Nangong, and a few other junior disciples, I guess you all know that I have awarded the sword skills of my master to Blue Moon, but why don't you have this idea, if someone also wants to learn like water, I can teach it to you on behalf of the teacher." ”

"It turns out that the name of this sword skill is like a flowing year, what a beautiful name!" Everyone spoke in unison, having seen the power of sword skills, but they never thought that such a fierce sword skill would be worthy of such a soft name.

"I'll forget it, Brother Daoxuan, you have also seen that my weapon is a long knife (the slender kind), which is not suitable for practicing swordsmanship." Although his eyes were full of longing, Nangong Wang could only comfort himself in his heart, after all, this is a sword technique rather than a sword technique, and it is useless to learn it. Guo Yangli and the three of them also shook their heads, saying that although they wanted to learn, the reality was very cruel, Yang Ting was good at using spears, Guo Xiao inherited the family martial arts Shuangyue Sword Technique, and Liyuan did not use any weapons, this person was good at using fire spells.

With the smooth landing of the flying boat, everyone stepped off the flying boat under the leadership of Li Lao, there were already chariots lined up and waiting, neatly aligned, followed by a team of soldiers in armor, thousands of people, silver armor shining in the sun, the scene was very grand, in Chu Ran's opinion, the emperor may be in this posture. Shocked, Chu Ran became interested in the creature pulling the chariot, looking like a horse, but the whole body was covered with cyan scales, only the abdomen was white, the limbs were thick and powerful, shaped like rhinoceros legs, the horse's face was still the same horse face, nothing more than covered with scales, and at the same time, the head had two horns, a pair of eyes stared like copper bells, and the pupils were golden brown.
