When Zhao Yu heard that the old man was going to the palace, he was a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it, it was more or less the same, so he was very calm.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion, Zhao Yu did not interfere in this matter.
The others from the Evil Sky Pavilion knew it was not wise to involve the father and son in this matter as well. Hence, they did not press the issue.
With Lu Zhou in the lead, 12 people, Whitzard, and Qiong Qi rose into the air above Xianyang City and flew toward the palace.

The Law of Balance stated that all the forces in the world should be balanced as much as possible. Humans, beasts, resources, treasures … everything should be relatively balanced. If not, then try to maintain the balance and eliminate the unbalanced factors. If not, then be prepared to deal with disasters.
There weren't many ferocious beasts in the black-green and jade-green lotuses. There was no lack of resources, but there weren't many ferocious beasts.
In order to maintain the balance, the beasts moved to the other side.
No one knew why it was like this, just like no one knew the origin of the shackles of heaven and earth.
Countless sages and mighty beings had died on the path of exploration, but there would always be more explorers, wave after wave, to solve the riddle.
…
The common people and cultivators in Xianyang City saw the cultivators flying low in the sky, and they were either shocked, confused, or angry … In the city, flying was usually not allowed. Only the officials had the right to fly, and the common people could only find their way around in the dark.
Passing through the streets, a few courageous and curious cultivators flew to the roofs and pavilions to look around.
When they reached the second street, Lu Zhou slowed down and sensed the changes in his surroundings.
If a place like Great Yan's Divine Capital had a top-grade Formation like the Ten Terminal Formation, Xianyang City might have one as well.
Caution is the parent of safety.
"Isn't that Kong Wen?" Someone below recognized the four Kong brothers.
"Seems like it. How daring of him to fly above Xianyang City. Isn't he afraid of being caught?"
"The barefooted are not afraid of wearing shoes. I heard that Kong Wen made a few friends a few years ago in order to pay off his debts. He's a pitiful person."
He pointed at the people below and said, "Kong Wen, they're talking about you."
"Ignore them. They're just some gangsters I used to know." Kong Wen didn't want to argue with this group of people.
After all, his status was different now.
"Kong Wen? Do you still remember me? It's me! "The person below kept waving his hand in greeting.
"Can't you see that he's ignoring you? Don't try to get close to them. They're so ostentatious, they might even implicate you, "the person beside him reminded.
"That's true. The patrol team will be here to catch them soon."
As expected?
From the direction of the Imperial City came a patrol team of about ten people, each of them holding a spear.
He was clad in heavy armor.
The cultivators in the city pointed at the patrol team with the attitude of watching a show.
Here it comes.
Those who were drinking continued to drink?
Those who were listening to the music continued to listen to the music. As for the patrol team arresting people?
Already used to it?
Usually, the consequences of being caught were not very good.
"Who dares to act so audaciously?" The patrol's voice was deep and powerful, shocking everyone.
The cultivators looked over.
Lu Zhou hovered in the air and looked at the patrol team.
Yu Shangrong said, "There's no need for master to do anything.
Leave such a small matter to me. "
Lu Zhou nodded.
Yu Shangrong was about to make a move.
A creaking sound came from the distant sky. The wind whistled, and it was mixed with the creaking sound.
It was hard for anyone not to turn around and take a look.
"Immortal Qin and the forty-nine swords."
The flying chariot is dark-red?
Fly like a ship?
The forty-nine swords form the seven stars?
There were seven of them protecting the flying chariot on their swords.
When the capital's patrol team saw the flying chariot, they straightened their backs. Their attitude and expressions changed completely as they said in a hushed voice, "Prepare to welcome them."
Mingshi Yin said, "Hey, hey, hey, that's not a good idea, is it?"
The patrol leader glanced at him and said, "I'll deal with you later."
"Are you sure you're not looking down on us?" Mingshi Yin said mockingly.
The patrol leader glared at him. He was about to lash out, but when he saw the flying chariot was already before them, he suppressed his anger. He led his comrades over and bowed to welcome the flying chariot.
"I didn't know you were coming, Immortal Qin.
The forty-nine swords gathered in front of the flying chariot.
Yuan Lang, one of the forty-nine swords, ignored the patrol team. His gaze fell on Lu Zhou and the others with a respectful expression on his face.
Qin Renyue's silhouette flashed and appeared before the forty-nine swords.
The patrol leader was extremely excited. He hastily went up to Qin Renyue and said, "Greetings, Immortal Qin!"
Qin Renyue frowned as he glanced at the patrol team that had appeared out of nowhere.
Yuan Lang reprimanded, "Don't block the way."
The patrol team was baffled.
A powerful force pushed them aside.
Qin Renyue led the forty-nine swords toward Lu Zhou and the others. When he was before them, he cupped his fists and said, "Brother Lu, a day apart feels like three years. I came as soon as I received your invitation. I'm not late, am I? "
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "I'm just in time."
Qin Renyue smiled and said, "I wonder if you're satisfied with my gift, Brother Lu?"
Lu Zhou said, "I … I'll accept it."
"I … I'll accept it."
"As long as you like it, Brother Lu."
When the ten patrollers saw the two of them chatting happily, they were stunned. They did not know what to say.
Qin Renyue said, "Why are you going to the palace, Brother Lu?"
"There's something I need to discuss with the Emperor of Qin. Since you're the Immortal Qin, you'll be our witness," Lu Zhou said.
Qin Renyue nodded and said, "It's my honor."
The patrol leader was still confused. One of his comrades tugged at the corner of his sleeve and said, "Leader, are we going to arrest them?"
The leader glared at him. "Are you blind or deaf?"
"…"
As for the onlookers, they were puzzled and began to speculate.
"Who's that guy?"
"Kong Wen! It's me! "
Since Kong Wen was able to strike up a conversation with Qin Renyue, it seemed like he had made a meteoric rise.
Kong Wen and his brothers ignored them.
The person on the ground continued waving his hand. "My goodness, Kong Wen, don't you remember when we stole buns together?"
He asked, "Do you know them, Kong Wen?"
"No, I don't," Kong Wen replied.
The patrol leader's eyes darted around. He waved his arm and dove down. "Capture these rumor-mongers."
"Understood."
"…"
Lu Zhou would not waste his time on such a trivial matter. Hence, he said, "Let's go."
The others continued to fly toward the Imperial city.
Naturally, the patrol members did not dare to ask any more questions. Instead, they captured many nationalistic youths and those who cursed at them.
…
Qin Renyue and the 49 Swords did not board the flying chariot. Instead, they flew with Lu Zhou and arrived before the Imperial city.
Many experts from the Imperial Palace, Imperial Guards, and Imperial Guards appeared on the Imperial City. They were densely packed like locusts, ready to strike.
Qin Renyue glanced at them. Under normal circumstances, the four Perfected Ones did not have much interaction with the Qin Emperor. However, it was not as if they had never met before. Every time they came, they would notify the Qin Emperor in advance. They would also avoid the cultivators and civilians in the outside world.
When Qin Renyue saw so many people blocking their way as though they were facing a great enemy, he knew this was not a good sign.
However, since he was already here, he had to walk on with determination.
Qin Renyue saw the veins on the city walls lit up.
Hence, he said in a clear voice, "Brother Lu and I wish to meet the Qin Emperor. Go and inform him."
His voice rolled toward the inner palace elites like an ocean, causing them to take several steps back.
At this moment, a shrill voice rang from behind the inner palace elites.
"His Majesty has summoned the two of you to the palace for an audience."
The crowd parted to form a path.
Lu Zhou and Qin Renyue led the others toward the Imperial city.
Lu Zhou was about to set foot on the Imperial city when he stopped. He turned around and asked, "Fan Zhong isn't here yet?"
Kong Wen said, "I've informed Perfected Master Fan. He should be here soon, right?"
Qin Renyue said disapprovingly, "Fan Zhong is a coward. He might not dare to come."
"Ignore him."
Lu Zhou flew in.
It was not a big deal to lose a Perfected One.
The others saw a black-robed eunuch hovering in the air in the distance. He stood respectfully with a smile on his face.
"Gao Cheng?" Qin Renyue recognized him.
Gao Cheng said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to recognize me, Perfected Master Qin. I'm overjoyed."
"Where's the Qin Emperor?" Qin Renyue asked.
"His Majesty is recuperating in seclusion in the You Xuan Temple. I'll lead the way. This way please, "Gao Cheng said with a smile.
"The You Xuan Temple?" Qin Renyue stopped in his tracks and said with a smile, "I heard that the You Xuan Temple is protected by the Ruin Returning Formation. As the ruler of a nation, shouldn't the Qin Emperor be with the civil and military officials to deal with the affairs of the nation?"
Gao Cheng said, "You'll have to ask Pavilion Master Lu about that. His Majesty isn't feeling well and needs the Ruin Returning Formation to recuperate. If it's not convenient, you can wait outside. "
