Chapter 268: The Tower of Fu Zun

The significance of the establishment of the Imperial City Inspection Department is to maintain the security of the capital, as long as it is conducive to the security of the capital, from the dignitaries to the people, the Imperial City Inspection Department can manage it.

And the person in charge of the Imperial City Inspection Division, that is, the general commander of the Imperial City Inspection Division, is the rank of the second grade, and he can definitely be called a member of the imperial court.

But this is a second-class court official, but it is actually a very embarrassing existence.

The reason is very simple, the capital is too difficult to manage, but all those who are traitors and criminals have officials and even royal relatives behind them.

After something happens, if you take out the radish and bring out the mud, and if you check it to death, it is easy to find out a lot of existence that cannot be provoked.

It's okay to make a small fuss, but if something big happens, the interests of certain groups will be touched if you check it.

Among the successive commanders of the Imperial City Inspection Department, there are hard-nosed people who are not afraid of the powerful and resolutely fight against those interest groups, but after only a momentary glory, they will be subjected to crazy retaliation.

For example, the very famous "Iron Commander" three years ago, after investigating a huge Yuanjing smuggling case, within half a year, the only daughter of the family disappeared mysteriously when she went out to enjoy the scenery, and when she found it again, she had been ruined into a madman with no human appearance.

After leaving office, the family encountered bandits on their way back to their hometown, and the body has not been found until now.

Although the imperial court has made a heavy effort to investigate this matter thoroughly, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the bandits who were finally sent to the capital to be beheaded for public display are all substitutes for the dead found by those who retaliate.

And if he doesn't care about anything during his tenure, as long as something big happens in the capital, the first thing the emperor does in order to vent his anger is to hold the commander of the Imperial City Inspection Department accountable.

The consequences of accountability are generally severe, ranging from dismissal and exile to on-the-spot beheading, as well as family and friends.

The last commander of the Imperial City Inspection Department was after the emperor was seriously injured and fell into a coma, in order not to affect his family and friends, he directly committed suicide by taking poison, and he was shown to the public for three days.

All in all, the commander of the Imperial City Inspection Department is an embarrassing official position that is easy to offend people and lose his life, and it is easier to lose his life if he doesn't do things.

After Ling Hao knew the true situation of the official position he had obtained from Xiang Heishe's mouth, he didn't care much about it.

He is different from the other Imperial City Inspection Department Commanders, he is a pharmacist, and he is protected by the Capital City Pharmacist Guild. Even if something happens to him during his tenure, the emperor will not punish him with death, but will hand him over to the Medicine Masters Guild.

Moreover, in the eyes of many people, Ling Hao was just alone, and no one in the entire capital of the Great Chu Dynasty knew that his home was in Xuanyan City except for Zhong Wanqing.

Now, the Xuanyan City side has been well protected by Xiang Black Snake's people, as long as something happens in the capital, Xiang Black Snake will immediately give orders to the Xuanyan City side, and Ling Hao's family and friends will be directly hidden, and no one can find it.

Therefore, even if Zhong Wanqing wanted to do something about Xuanyan City through the people on the side of the Four Princes, he couldn't hide it from Xiang Heisnake at all.

The qualifiers for the military academy competition are still ongoing, except for the tepid group where Ling Hao is located, the battles of the other groups are very fierce.

Yun Qingshi, who had the help of the three-tailed dragon flame lion cub in the battle, still did not succeed in the end, and she lost to a man named Wang Ge. And that Wang Ge also won one after another in the subsequent battles and duels, becoming the final winner of the Zeu group.

On the side of the Heavenly Group, Feng Xuesong can be said to have fought all the way to the bloody battle, and in the finals of the winners of the Heavenly Group, he fought for a full three hours before the dark horse-level existence who was usually not famous, but sang all the way in the military academy competition, was vividly stunned on the high platform.

On the ground group's side, in the finals, Yu Hongchen, who was Ling Hao's opponent, could not avoid the battle, and Ling Hao qualified.

As for the yellow group, the person who came out of the line was Yu Hongchen, the president of the Water God Association.

After the winners of each of the eight groups appeared, someone opened a handicap for gambling and guessing, which is also one of the conventions of the annual military academy competition.

Of course, basically no one bet on Ling Hao.

The reason is very simple, compared with several other large groups, there are too few masters in the ground group, and the only more controversial people have encountered each other at the beginning of the qualifiers, and they have to retire after losing both.

In this case, in addition to Ling Hao's slightly stunning battle against Zheng Ming, in the eyes of many people, he only relied on luck to become a winner.

Moreover, the winners of the other seven major groups were all cultivators of the ninth order of the Yuan Wheel Realm. In the eyes of many people, Ling Hao, who only had a second-order cultivation in the Yuan Wheel Realm, had too obvious a disadvantage.

After the qualifiers, there will be a ten-day recuperation period, and according to the custom, during these ten days, the winners of the eight major groups will basically prepare for the next competition without leaving the door, so as to avoid surprises and cheap opponents during this period.

But the day after the qualifiers, there was a major event in the capital of the Great Chu Dynasty.

On the square at the entrance of the Fu Array Guild, a huge nine-story tower appeared.

Immediately afterwards, the Fu Array Master Guild released news that it was established by Fu Zun Xu Yantian!

"In order to inspire the Great Chu cultivators, Fu Zun's predecessors specially erected a high tower here. During this period, all cultivators in the capital can try to break into the tower, and those who successfully enter the tower will receive a reward from the predecessors of Fu Zun for each floor they climb. ”

After the news came out, the capital of Great Chu was completely boiling!

Even the emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty, whose physical condition had just stabilized, tried to break into the tower.

On the side of the Great Chu Military Academy, the seven group winners who were going to quietly prepare for the next big competition couldn't hold back directly, and even Feng Xuesong, who was extremely calm, left the Haoyue League station after thinking twice.

Ling Hao didn't know what Xu Yantian was doing, but because the two of them had broken up unhappily before, Ling Hao knew that this Fuzun Tower was very likely to be a measure made by Xu Yantian against himself, and he didn't plan to go.

But Xu Yantian didn't mean to let Ling Hao not get involved in this matter, and on the second day of the appearance of the Fuzun Tower, Ling Hao returned to the room after feeding the panda, and found that there was an extra rune stone on the table in the room.

In the rune stone, there was a message left by Xu Yantian to Ling Hao:

"The important information I know about the Divine Ghost Army has been placed on the top of the tower by me. The first person to break through the tower will be able to obtain that information. ”

"So, Chen Xiaoyue, whether you can get that piece of information or not depends on your ability. ”

After reading the information in the rune stone, Ling Hao directly left the Haoyue Alliance's residence and went straight to the direction where the Rune Array Master Guild was located.

Although he had already greeted Xu Yantian's eighteenth generation ancestor in his heart, Ling Hao also knew very well in his heart that Xu Yantian, the bastard, had always said and done something. It is very likely that that this piece of information has really been placed on the top of the tower by him.

And this is also Xu Yantian's test for him!

But the purpose of this test, Ling Hao couldn't figure it out.
