Imperial capital, Murong Mansion.

In Murong Yun's study, Murong Yun and Murong Anran, father and son, sat opposite each other.

Murong said peacefully: "Father, today, Your Majesty has finally finalized the matter of sending an envoy to the White Eagle Empire. I was the chief envoy of the mission, Zhongli Bowen was the deputy envoy, and the four princesses were also attached to the delegation. The departure time is set for the beginning of next year. ”

Murong Yun said: "The attitude of the White Eagle Empire is unclear, and this envoy must be cautious. Zhongli Bowen is particularly good at strategy and is the most important advisor of His Majesty. Although His Majesty has appointed you as the main envoy this time, the actual decision-maker is still Zhongli Bowen. On this trip, you have to consult Zhongli Bowen for everything. Rather than negotiating with the White Eagle Empire, your more important task is to ensure the safety of the Four Princesses and the entire Mission. ”

"The child understands!"

"It just so happens that His Majesty has decided to send an envoy to the White Eagle Empire, and when the time comes, I will let Ye'er accompany him, and you will escort Ye'er to the White Eagle Empire safely. When the time comes, you can let Ye'er visit by the way, and you can't be rude. ”

"It's okay! Although you can't send Ye'er directly to Si Jian Peak, it's relatively safe to go to the White Eagle Empire. The Chen family's hand couldn't stretch that long. But ......"

Murong Anran paused when he said this, he looked at Murong Yun's face before continuing: "The Murong family has been practicing marksmanship for thousands of years, is it a little inappropriate for you to let Ye'er go to Si Jian Peak?"

Murong Yun sighed and said, "Although the family tradition is important, it can be ignored compared to Ye'er's safety. In order to continue the safety of the Murong family, even if all the children of the Murong family no longer practice guns, it is necessary. ”

Murong Anran also sighed helplessly, not saying anything. For a moment, the study suddenly fell silent.

After a while, Murong Anran asked again, "Father, do you still need to inform your younger siblings about the White Eagle Empire?"

Murong Yun said: "Let me know!" If the third daughter-in-law also wants to go to the White Eagle Empire to have a look, let her send Ye'er to Si Jian Peak. ”

"It's good!"

Murong Yun spoke again: "How is the barracks over there, is there any situation these days?"

Murong Anran shook his head and said, "Although the Chen family has sent some people to find out the situation of Ye'er these days, they have all been blocked back by the soldiers of the big battalion. The camp where Ye'er was located was very hidden, and the people of the Chen family should not have figured out Ye'er's location until now. ”

"How is Ye'er? It's been four months, and Ye'er hasn't said that she wants to come back, and the third daughter-in-law has asked several times. ”

"Ye'er should be focused on cultivation and didn't pay attention to the time. Liu Lao said that Ye'er is now very obsessed with cultivation, and the amount of cultivation is even more than that of those personal guards, and he only rests for three or four hours a day. His thunder marksmanship has already been introduced, and now it is almost the same as Xiaocheng. I don't know how well I practiced, but Liu Lao estimated that he should be able to reach the second level in the next few days, that is, the early stage of the samurai. ”

Murong Yun was very pleased, and said: "Four months to cross the martial apprentice to enter the warrior realm, although the qualifications are good, but without him so hard work, he would not have reached this level. ”

Murong Anran scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "If only those three girls in my family had half of the night's work." They don't like to read now, and they are always lazy in their cultivation, and they know how to run out every day. A few days ago, they actually pulled many young ladies from many families to form a daughter's party, and they swaggered around the market in the imperial capital every day, and they also called it chivalrous and righteous. ”

Murong Yun glanced at Murong Anran, and scolded with a smile: "It's not your favorite! Three little girls, you are used to being so naughty and mischievous." ”

Murong Anran pursed his lips and muttered, "It's not the most ruthless you're used to." ”

Murong Yun glared at Murong Anran fiercely and said, "Okay, send a letter to Ye'er and ask him to come back to participate in the winter hunt later this month." ”

"Yes, Father. ”

......

Outside the imperial capital, Murong Ye's personal guard camp.

After receiving the news that Murong Yun had summoned him back to the imperial capital, Murong Ye practiced for a few more days to practice the thunder marksmanship to a small level, and then announced that he would return to the imperial capital together.

If it weren't for Grandpa Murong Yun's summons, Murong Ye might have been cultivating in the camp. At the very least, cultivate to the point where you can practice the magical powers of the incorruptible body of Vajra, the seventy-two transformations, the clouds and the mist, and the golden light of the earth. He has coveted these supernatural powers for a long time.

When the convoy set off, Murong Ye lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked deeply at the camp that was gradually moving away for a while, and felt a little emotional for a while. He had spent more than five months and four months in this camp since he woke up, and he was still a little reluctant to leave now.

Xiao Yue sat quietly in the corner of the carriage, watching Murong Ye distracted. She followed Murong Ye in the military camp for four months, and felt more and more that Murong Ye was extraordinary.

With the fluttering snowflakes, the carriage slowly drove towards the imperial capital, and there were more than 20 guards in front and behind the carriage to escort them, and on both sides of the carriage were Wang Teng, Ma Yan, Ma Gang, and Xu Yuntong. Further on, Li Yinxing and Cai Saifeng, who were escorting four wagons on horseback, and members of their respective teams.

The reason why Ma Gang and Xu Yuntong were able to follow Murong Ye's carriage was because in the second team competition held by the pro-guard team, the first place was Ma Gang's Baihuwei, the second place was Xu Yuntong's Qinglongwei, the third place was Li Yinxing's Vermilion Bird Guard, and the fourth place was naturally Cai Saifeng's Xuanwu Wei.

Murong Ye said that the tasks were arranged in the order of the team's ranking. Therefore, Wang Teng assigned the task of protecting Murong Ye to White Tiger Wei and Qinglong Wei.

As for the reason why Xu Yuntong's team became the Qinglongwei, it was because they decided to name the team for the first time, and they also got the second place in that competition.

Although the martial arts realm of Xu Yuntong's team is low on average, fortunately, the team competes not only in the team competition, but also in war simulation, physical fitness competition, flag pulling competition and other items proposed by Murong Ye. Therefore, Xu Yuntong, who is excellent in luck and strategy, was able to lead the team to win the second place twice.

Although the Magang team won the first place in the first competition, they were more inclined to the White Tiger Divine Beast that was the main killing, so Xu Yuntong's team naturally chose the Qinglong, the first of the four divine beasts.

Murong Ye and his party came to the reserve army camp of the Pingxi Legion outside the camp, and Murong Ye visited the Murong family members of the two uncles as usual before continuing to return to the imperial capital.

Murong Ye sat in the carriage, drank the juice that Xiaoyue had prepared, called up his information, and adjusted the display options.

......

Murong Ye's eight or nine Xuangong has not broken through, but the first stage has already tended to be complete. His four major physical attributes have all been greatly improved, and with the fact that Thunder Marksmanship has changed from a beginner to a small success, his comprehensive combat effectiveness is already equivalent to the late stage of a samurai.

Murong Ye estimated that when his Eight or Nine Xuangong entered the middle stage of the first level, his combat strength should be able to reach the level of a martial artist.

Murong Ye thought about it, adjusted the shielding force field to change the exposed realm to the early stage of the warrior, and the four major physical attributes were all adjusted from the original 2 to 4.

Murong Ye stared at the "Ring of the Traverser" and the "Three-Pointed and Two-edged Spear (Mortal)" in the character information, thoughtfully. He had noticed a difference in the way the two pieces of equipment were displayed before, but he didn't think much of it. With nothing to do today, he had time to think about what it meant.

It is not difficult to see from the two words "mortal" behind the three-pointed two-edged gun that the equipment is of grade. However, there is no grade behind the Ring of the Traverser, but level 1. If there is level 1, there will naturally be level 2 and level 3......

Is the Ring of the Traverser upgradeable, but because it's a growable piece of equipment, it can't be graded, or is it a special existence that transcends the normal grade?

Murong Ye had two guesses about the Traveler's Ring, but he couldn't say which one was more likely.

Murong Ye's palm was weak, and a stone the size of a thumb belly appeared in his palm, and the stone disappeared again as soon as his mind moved. This is through the storage space function of the Ring of the Traverser, he took out the ore that he put in before, and retracted the storage space.

Of course, Murong Ye's palm palm had always been out of Xiao Yue's field of vision, so he didn't worry about Xiao Yue seeing this magical scene.

Murong Ye closed his eyes, his consciousness focused on the Ring of the Traverser, and a space of ten meters in length, width and height appeared in his mind. There were a lot of things he had quietly put in during this time, including the gold and silver that Satsuki had brought him, the pastries that his mother had brought him, the metal and ore left over from the forging of the three-pointed two-edged gun, and the books he had collected.

Murong Ye's attention left the Ring of the Traverser, and the space in his mind immediately disappeared. He touched the three-pointed two-edged gun that was placed diagonally on his thigh, and silently ran the Eight or Nine Xuangong and began to practice. The policy he set for himself to become a cultivator was not for fun, in fact, he had done so for more than five months.

The convoy drove unhurriedly and stopped when it was almost to a lake.

After a while, Wang Teng knocked on the carriage and reported: "Young master, the scout has reported that one kilometer ahead, the road next to the lake has been blocked by a team of guards, and the guards are dressed like people from the Chen family's family. The Chen family is also one of the top families in the empire, and it has always been hostile to our Murong family. They stop us in the way we have to go, and we don't know what purpose. Young Master, do you need to ask for help from the reserve army camp?"

Wang Teng kept his duty as a personal guard, and did not propose to Murong Ye whether to go forward or backward, but only reminded Murong Ye that the Chen family and the Murong family were hostile, and asked for help or not.

When the regular army marches, there are scouts in front of them to open the way. Murong Ye's situation was complicated, so although he was not on the march to fight, Wang Teng still sent several groups of scouts to explore the way forward, in order to ensure Murong Ye's safety.

Murong Ye shook his head and said, "There's no need to ask for help. Even if we have always been hostile to the Chen family, they will not blatantly attack us outside this imperial capital. As the team moves forward, you take the first step to communicate with the Chen family and ask them to borrow the road for us to pass through, and maintain a polite attitude. ”

"Yes. ”

Wang Teng rode away from the group and drove towards the Chen family's team, followed by Ma Gang and Xu Yuntong. Ma Yan maintained the same speed as the carriage and guarded Murong Ye's carriage.

Xiao Yue opened the door curtain and looked forward curiously, and then said nervously to Murong Ye: "Young Master, you have to be careful! I heard that many sisters in the house said that the Chen family was bad and ruthless, and they were specifically against our family. ”

Murong Ye smiled and said, "I know, don't worry!"

The team continued to march, and after a short time, Wang Teng rode back alone, and said: "Young master, the person in charge of the Chen family here is Chen Yiwen, but his subordinates don't remember that there is this person in the second or third generation of the Chen family's family. He agreed to give way, but I heard that it was the young master who passed by, and wanted to invite you to the lakeside pavilion to enjoy the snow together. ”

"Excuse me?"

Murong Ye frowned and thought for a while, glanced at the direction of the lakeside pavilion, and said with a smile: "Since the other party has an invitation, we will meet him." ”

If Yang Xufeng in his previous life encountered such a thing, he might choose to find a reason to refuse the invitation of the Chen family and leave in a hurry. But Murong Ye, who has cultivated eight or nine Xuangong, will face up to the head when he encounters such a thing.

Eight or nine Xuangong, the strongest divine skill in the flesh, pays attention to fearless and indomitable domineering.

Xiao Yue wanted to persuade Murong Ye, but thinking of Murong Ye's unrivalled prestige in the military camp in the past few months, she shrank her head and didn't dare to say anything.

Soon, Murong Ye and his party stopped not far from the lakeside pavilion, Murong Ye instructed Xiao Yue to stay in the carriage, and after getting out of the carriage, he tied the three-pointed two-edged gun diagonally behind him with a cloth belt, and strode towards the pavilion.

Wang Teng, Ma Yan, Ma Gang and Xu Yuntong followed behind Murong Ye.

Liu Lao, the coachman standing next to the carriage, squinted at the location of the pavilion, smiled, and sat leisurely in the carriage and did nothing.

The guards of the Chen family did not stop them, and the five of Murong Ye came to the pavilion smoothly.
