The scorching pain from the Time Quicksand seemed to only train his tenacious willpower and soul. The moment he passed through the plane, Lin Muyu had already raised his dou qi to the extreme. He raised his right palm gently and gathered all the dou qi in his body at one point, transforming it into Seven Luminaries Profound Energy.
"Swoosh!"
With a flash of light, he had already appeared on the top floor of Tong Tian Tower. What came into view was Lord Blood and Chi Gui's appearance.
"Lin Muyu!"
Chi Gui roared as his fists punched over with intense flames. He actually used his full strength!
Lin Muyu's palm fell confidently. This palm was full of strength and the surroundings of his palms were filled with the dancing stars of all living beings, which was extremely mysterious!
Three Luminaries Calamity!
"Peng!"
The peak of the palm forcefully pushed Chi Gui back for more than ten steps and he fell heavily onto the wall while Lin Muyu used the force to glide for more than ten meters. With a flip, he jumped down from the eighteenth floor of Tong Tian Tower!
"You!"
Lord Blood was furious as he shouted, "You little bastard, how dare you tease me like this!?"
Lin Muyu did not plan to go down from the stairs at all. Instead, she planned to jump down from the top floor. Otherwise, she would not be able to escape from the pursuit of the Blood Lord and the war bear that had lived for more than ten thousand years.
"Buzz!"
He summoned the green gourd in mid-air and the indigo gourd protected him. At the same time, he activated his dou qi and hit the ground with his palm to reduce the force. Otherwise, no one would be able to withstand crashing into the ground from a height of more than ten meters.
On the ground, there was actually a group of people guarding there. The strong wind hit his eyes and Lin Muyu couldn't see who it was at all.
"Ah?!"
On the ground, Tang Xiaoxi widened her eyes as she saw it clearly. A figure wrapped by the gourd was descending from the sky. She quickly pointed at the sky and shouted, "Xiao Yin, look!"
Qin Yin quickly looked up and her beautiful face was instantly filled with ecstasy, "It's him … It's him!"
…
"Bang!"
Dust flew everywhere, and Lin Muyu slid on the ground for nearly twenty meters. He stood up in a sorry state, and there was nothing on his upper body except for his tattered pants. When he looked up, he realized that the three great beauties, Qin Yin, Tang Xiaoxi, and Chu Yao, were standing not far away. Beside them were Feng Jixing, Chu Huaiying, and Qin Yan.
In an instant, Lin Muyu's face flushed red. This was too embarrassing. Everything had been seen.
However, at this moment, a mighty force came from above his head. He couldn't care less about his shame and hurriedly rolled away along the ground. The roar of the war bear came from behind him. The Blood Lord actually rode the war bear and attacked. A God Binding Lock fell on the place where Lin Muyu was half a second ago, blasting the dust into pieces.
"Who is it?" Qin Lei raised his long saber and rushed over, shouting in a low voice: "Old fellow, why do you have my Qin family's martial spirit!?"
"Big Brother Qin Lei, step back!"
Lin Muyu shouted loudly, causing Qin Yin, Tang Xiaoxi, and Chu Yao to stop in their tracks. Each of them was dumbfounded.
"Who is this old man?" Qin Yin blinked her eyes.
"He is from the Qin family."
Lin Muyu raised his long sword and turned around. He looked at the Blood Lord from afar, cupped his fists and said: "Senior, give up. I have already come out from the Tong Tian Tower. Why are you still unwilling to let me go?"
The Blood Lord's face was filled with anger. At this moment, his appearance rapidly aged. Strictly speaking, he became older. In the blink of an eye, his entire person was like a mummy, as if he could disappear with the wind at any time.
Lifespan!
This was the only reason why the Blood Lord didn't leave the top of the tower. He needed to absorb the death energy from the Purgatory Plane to maintain his life. Otherwise, once he left the top of the tower, his life would be gone with the wind.
The terrifying scene in front of them made Qin Yin and the other two beauties turn pale.
Lin Muyu, on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief. He had not guessed wrongly. The Blood Lord was an extremely greedy person. For the sake of the throne, he would not hesitate to kill his own brother. It was impossible for such a person to give up and stay in the Tong Tian Tower. There must be something in the tower that he could not give up. Now, the answer had appeared. The Tong Tian Tower had what he needed the most — life.
"Little Black, let's go!"
The Blood Lord gently stroked the head of the war bear and urged it to return to the Tong Tian Tower. The crisis was then resolved.
…
"Yu, quickly put it on!"
Chu Huaiying had already prepared a set of armor for him. It was a set of battle robes of the Tiger Guards.
After putting on the new robes, his entire temperament had undergone a huge change. From the initial wild and unrestrained, it had transformed into a cold and arrogant one. If he could shave his beard, it would probably be even more perfect.
"Yu, who was that person just now?" asked Qin Yin.
"Your great-grandfather's younger brother, a person who committed treason."
"Oh …"
Qin Yin did not understand and did not continue to ask.
After putting on the battle boots, Lin Muyu flipped over and mounted the horse. At this moment, a group of people galloped over from not far away. It was the Military Police Battalion. Commander Xiang Yu carried the Carnage Spear and walked at the front.
"Lin Muyu, you actually came out alive." Xiang Yu smiled coldly. "It seems that the rumors about the Tong Tian Tower are not true. Even someone like you can come out alive. The Tong Tian Tower is not as scary as the rumors say."
"Is that so?"
Lin Muyu smiled slightly. "Then why don't you go in and try?"
"Are you provoking me?"
Xiang Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't think that you are free after coming out of the Tong Tian Tower. Dream on!"
"Xiang Yu, what do you mean?" Qin Lei carried the Thunder Cutter and asked.
"Nothing. I just want to see how his cultivation is progressing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiang Yu had already jumped off the horse. Chaotic energy surged around his body. With a wave of his palm, an overwhelming attack blasted towards Lin Muyu.
Chaotic Nine Strikes, the third strike — Chaotic Heaven Splitter!
Lin Muyu had already expected this. Xiang Yu was naturally arrogant and would definitely test her. Therefore, the moment Xiang Yu made his move, Lin Muyu had already rapidly increased the strength of her battle qi. With a wave of her right palm, the constellation of all living beings appeared — —
Three Luminaries All Calamity!
"Bang!"
Light splashed in all directions. The collision of the two forces formed a shockwave that swept in all directions. Lin Muyu suddenly landed on the ground. With a "pa" sound, the butterfly steps of the Falling Star Step unloaded the force on the ground and stood firmly.
On the contrary, Xiang Yu was actually sent flying seven or eight steps back by this attack. He stood firmly in a sorry state. Looking at his palm, his face had an expression of disbelief. Obviously, he did not expect that Lin Muyu could actually shake off his sure-kill attack. After all, over twenty days ago, this attack was something that Lin Muyu could not block at all.
"Xiang Yu, have you eaten a leopard's guts!?"
Qin Yin spurred her horse over. Her beautiful face was filled with anger. "Could it be that you don't know Father's decree? Once Lin Muyu steps out of the Tong Tian Tower, he will be exempted from all punishment. As the commander of the Military Police Battalion, you actually attacked him here. Are you openly defying Father's decree? "
"This lowly general does not dare!"
Xiang Yu smiled awkwardly. He cupped his fists and said respectfully, "This lowly general is just testing how much Lord Lin Muyu's cultivation has improved in the Tong Tian Tower. I definitely have no intention of defying the decree. Your Highness, please investigate clearly."
Qin Yin said coldly, "You may leave. I will bring him back to the Ze Tian Palace Hall."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Lin Muyu stood motionless on the spot. Her body could not move. She had used the power of the Third Element three times in a row. Although she did not use her full strength, the backlash on her body was very strong. After a whole ten minutes, she finally mounted the horse with Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi.
…
She returned to the Ze Tian Palace Hall, but this time, her mood was completely different. She knelt at the foot of the Emperor's steps with Feng Jixing, Qin Lei, and Chu Huaiyin. Her heart was filled with a myriad of emotions. At this moment, Lin Muyu finally understood what it meant to be in the Emperor's company was like living with a tiger. Heaven's might was unpredictable. Her life and death depended on the happiness and anger of others. How could this not be a kind of sorrow?
"Lin Muyu."
Qin Jin looked at her indifferently and said, "You were able to come out of the Tong Tian Tower alive. This is enough to prove that you indeed did not deserve to die. After this ordeal, you can resume your position and continue to serve as the Tiger Guard of the Imperial Guards. Commander Qin Lei will prepare everything for you. You can return to duty at the Patrol Station in the afternoon."
"Your Majesty, does my request from back then still count?" Lin Muyu asked.
Qin Jin was stunned. "What request?"
"Abolish the imperial army's concubine system."
"You!"
Qin Jin gritted his teeth and said, "This is a matter of great importance. It's not something that I can abolish just because I say so. However, I will consider it. You don't need to say anything more. Return to the Patrol Station!"
Lin Muyu had completely given up. He stood up, cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I request to join the Eagle Guard."
"Eagle Guard?" Qin Jin was stunned. "Why?"
Qin Yin, who was sitting beside the Emperor, was also anxious. She asked, "Yu, why do you want to become an Eagle Guard? That's … a tough job. You'll have to stay outside the imperial city for many years … "
"I know." Naturally, Lin Muyu would not say that he did not want to stay by the Emperor's side. He only said, "I want to gain more experience in the outside world. I hope Your Majesty will allow me to do so."
Qin Jin smiled faintly and nodded. "Since you want to become an Eagle Guard, I'll allow you. However, it's not that easy to become an Eagle Guard. Not only do you have to patrol the safety of the imperial city's surroundings, but you also have to enter the Dragon-Seeking Forest to hunt some precious spirit beasts and gather precious materials and meat for the Ze Tian Palace's use. This … Can you do it?"
"I can." Lin Muyu's gaze was calm.
"Good."
Qin Jin stood up and said, "Then I'll promote Lin Muyu to Eagle Guard. You'll be able to command ten Imperial Guards and one hundred Imperial Guards. However, you'll also have to patrol every month. I hope you'll be able to complete it smoothly."
"Yes!"
…
When Lin Muyu turned around and left, Qin Yin revealed a trace of disappointment. After all, she had hoped that Lin Muyu would stay in the Ze Tian Palace. Unfortunately, Lin Muyu had chosen to leave.
Qin Lei, Chu Huaiying, and Feng Jixing followed her out of the Ze Tian Palace. Qin Lei frowned and said, "Yu, it's tough being an Eagle Guard. You're constantly on the move, and your position is the lowest among the Imperial Guards. Why do you want to become an Eagle Guard?"
Lin Muyu shook her head and said, "My personality is too straightforward. I'm not suitable to stay in the Ze Tian Palace."
Feng Jixing smiled at the side. "It's fine to become an Eagle Guard. There's no need to force yourself."
"Oh, right. Brother Qin Lei, I have a request."
"Oh, what request?"
"That Wei Chou, if he's willing to become an Eagle Guard, can you assign him to be under my command? What do you think?"
"Okay, no problem!"
Outside the palace, Chu Yao was standing in the distance. She was leading a white horse. She walked forward and said with a smile, "Yu, are you alright now?"
"Yes, I'm alright now."
Chu Huaiying smiled and said, "However, Yu has chosen to lower his rank and become an Eagle Guard."
Chu Yao blinked. "It's alright. It's best that he's alive!"
"That's true …"
