"Not long ago, Zeng Yifan brought a thousand soldiers from the Divine Might Battalion into Ze Tian Palace and killed the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards, Rong Hanyuan, with a fabricated crime. He killed Rong Hanyuan in front of me, Her Highness Yin, and Princess Xi." Lin Muyu didn't answer the question.
"What?"
Lei Hong frowned, "Zeng Yifan dared to be so insolent?"
"Yes."
Lin Muyu said, "Zeng Yifan's actions are nothing more than a warning to the Imperial Guards to not be enemies with the Divine Marquis Mansion. He's already so arrogant, I'm worried that he might harm Her Highness Yin and His Majesty at any time. So I hope that Grandpa Lei Hong can find Grandpa Qu Chu as soon as possible and let him stay at Ze Tian Palace. The Emperor and Princess need him now."
"I understand."
Lei Hong took a deep breath, "Qu Chu will definitely return to Lanyan City within five days, but … Yu, you're now a thorn in the Divine Marquis Mansion's flesh. You're also stationed at the Eagle Nest Mountain outside the city. You must be careful. I'm not worried that Zeng Yifan will harm His Majesty, but I'm worried that he will harm you."
Lin Muyu said leisurely, "I'm fine. It won't be that easy for Zeng Yifan to kill me. Plus, there are dozens of Eagle Guards and hundreds of Imperial Guards in the Eagle Nest Camp. He won't be able to do it easily."
"Yes."
Lei Hong said, "Hurry back to the camp before the sun sets. Be careful once you leave the city."
"Yes!"
Lei Hong stood up and said, "Deacon Ge Yang, prepare a horse for me."
"Great Deacon, where are you going?" Ge Yang asked in surprise.
Lei Hong smiled, "Before Qu Chu returns to Lanyan City, I'll protect His Majesty and Her Highness Yin in Ze Tian Palace. Although I'm no match for Zeng Yifan, if he wants to kill me, he'll have to pay the price in blood."
"Yes, Great Deacon!"
Lin Muyu also smiled faintly and left the Sacred Hall with Tang Xiaoxi.
It was close to dusk, and the streets were filled with pedestrians. From afar, the Spiritual Medicine Department opposite the Holy Temple looked like two giants standing majestically among the buildings of the Imperial Capital, facing the Holy Temple from afar, like two giant gods guarding the Imperial Capital.
"Xiao Xi, I think …" Lin Muyu suddenly stopped her horse.
Tang Xiaoxi giggled, her eyes sparkling with cunning. "Do you want to see Sister Chu Yao?"
"Yeah …"
Lin Muyu also knew that Tang Xiaoxi was interested in her, so she asked, "You won't be jealous or angry, right?"
Tang Xiaoxi shook her head and smiled. "Mu, you and Sister Chu Yao risked your life to come all the way from Cathaya City to Wild Orchid City. If you ignore her, I'll really question your character!"
Lin Muyu couldn't help but laugh. "What's wrong with my character?"
"It's pretty good …" Tang Xiaoxi flipped off her horse and said, "Then I won't accompany you in. Come out quickly and send me back to the Duke's Mansion on the way."
"Mm, okay."
… …
After leaving her horse outside, Lin Muyu quickly stepped into the Spiritual Medicine Department. No one stopped her along the way, and she went straight to the courtyard where Chu Yao lived. Just as she pushed open the courtyard door, she heard a sharp whistling sound. Peng! The Pear Blossom Sword was shot through the air into a tree trunk in the courtyard. Chu Yao stood a few meters away with two fingers pressed together, and true energy enshrouded her fingers.
"Not bad …" Lin Muyu smiled.
Chu Yao was stunned, and then her eyes immediately turned red. She opened her arms and threw herself into Lin Muyu's embrace, her shoulders trembling. "Yu, I heard a lot of bad rumors. I thought that something bad had happened to you in the Dragon Seeking Forest. I have nightmares every night. It's great that you came back alive!"
Lin Muyu hugged her senior sister's slender waist helplessly and smiled. "Didn't I come back alive? Sister Chu Yao, time is precious. I still have to return to the Eagle Nest Camp to submit my orders. Come, come, let me teach you a few advanced techniques of sword kinesis. "
"En, alright!" Chu Yao was happy.
Thus, within twenty minutes, Lin Muyu taught her all the secrets and tricks of the Four Element Sword Kinesis. He did not know how much Chu Yao could learn, but with her talent in comprehending the Sword Heart so quickly, she would definitely succeed. Lin Muyu's Spirit Pulse Technique extended out, and he could see through the flow of the Innate Qi in Chu Yao's body. He could already tell that Chu Yao's cultivation had advanced to the level of war elder and stepped into the second level of the Earth Realm. With her advancement speed, she should be able to step into the third level of the Earth Realm in half a year!
Looking at Chu Yao's appearance, she still had short hair, but she was wearing exquisite soft armor. She was wearing the Spirit Medicine Department's white robes. She looked very spirited and valiant. Lin Muyu couldn't help feeling a bit comforted. He knew he couldn't protect Chu Yao for the rest of his life. Making her stronger was the best way to protect her.
After teaching the Four Element Sword Kinesis, he left in a hurry. Night fell.
Outside the Spirit Medicine Department, Tang Xiaoxi had been waiting impatiently for a long time. However, when she saw Lin Muyu walk out of the Spirit Medicine Department with a tired face, she couldn't bear to blame him. She just asked, "How is sister Chu Yao recently?"
"Pretty good."
Lin Muyu smiled and said, "I taught her the Sword Kinesis. Sister Chu Yao's advancement speed is quite fast. By the way, Xiao Xi, how is your cultivation progress recently?"
Tang Xiaoxi raised her beautiful eyes, puffed out her full chest, and said, "I stepped into the third level of the Earth Realm half a month ago. Now … I should be close to the level 57 Battle-Saint. If there are no accidents, I should be able to step into the Heaven Realm in about half a month. How is it, Mu, I'm about to catch up to you!"
Lin Muyu snickered, "Heh, even if you step into the Heaven Realm, I'm afraid you're still no match for me …"
Tang Xiaoxi pouted, "Hmph, Mu is a baddie, don't provoke me!"
"Alright, go back early!"
"Okay."
…
After sending Tang Xiaoxi back to the Duke's Mansion, Lin Muyu immediately spurred her horse towards Eagle's Nest Mountain. In less than half an hour, she had already ascended the mountain. In the darkness of the night, there was an endless stream of Royal Guards ascending the mountain. On the backs of their horses, there were Fire Foxes, Swift Wolves, Cloud Deer, and other prey. These were all for the enjoyment of Ze Tian Palace. It was a stark contrast to the lives of the poor commoners outside the city.
However, when she thought about it, there were actually only two masters in Ze Tian Palace, Qin Jin and Qin Yin, and there were not many palace maids and attendants in Ze Tian Palace. If it was an ancient emperor of China, with three palaces and six courtyards, and tens of thousands of palace attendants, it would not be as simple as just asking for twenty Cloud Deer, it would be at least two thousand!
In comparison, Ze Tian Palace was really simple. Qin Jin and Qin Yin's life could not even be considered luxurious.
When they stepped into the camp, they saw a large group of people gathered in the distance. From afar, they could hear a wild and arrogant voice —
"You bunch of trash, and you're still talking about obtaining the spirit stones of a 6000-year-old Golden-scaled Beast? What do you think? You can't produce the spirit stones, yet you still want to make a false accusation. Men, arrest all of them and bring them to the Lord Commander!"
This voice belonged to Gong Xun, and it was too unique. It was so shrill that it sounded like the eunuch attendants in the palace.
"Not good …"
Lin Muyu's heart sank. He immediately spurred his horse forward and shouted, "Get out of the way!"
His Martial Spirit had already entered his body, and it protected him and his warhorse as he charged forward. Parting the crowd, he saw Wei Chou and a group of subordinates surrounded in the middle of the crowd. Wei Chou's chest was even covered in blood, as if he had been stabbed by a sword.
Gong Xun and another Heavenly State Imperial Guard were laughing at the side. The other Heavenly State Imperial Guard Lin Muyu recognized him. His name was Xu Geng, and he was a centurion of the Eagle Guards. He was also from the Divine Marquis Residence, and he was very strong. It was probably because of these two Heavenly State experts that Wei Chou and the others were no match for them.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Muyu flipped off his horse, and the Burning Prairie Sword was pulled out of its sheath by the power of lightning. He held it firmly in his hand, and his expression was not very good. He said lightly, "Wei Chou, what's wrong?"
Wei Chou's face was still stained with blood. He gritted his teeth and said, "My Lord, Gong Xun and Xu Geng insisted that we did not complete the mission. Gong Xun even said that I should fulfill the promise and kneel to him. If I did not comply, they would lead the others to injure us!"
Gong Xun probably took advantage of the fact that Xu Geng was also here. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Lin Muyu, you said that previously, you should have nothing to say now, right? Your subordinate's mouth is not clean, so I will help you teach him a lesson. This is the rule of the Eagle Nest Camp. "
"The rule of the Eagle Nest Camp?"
Lin Muyu was infuriated. "Who gave the people of the Divine Marquis Residence such a great advantage?"
As he spoke, Lin Muyu reached into his pocket and took out the spirit stone of the Golden-scaled Beast. With a burst of fighting energy, the spirit stone shone brightly. This was obviously a spirit stone that was at least 6000 years old.
"How is it?" Lin Muyu said lightly, "Can we hand over the order now?"
"It … it really is a 6000 years old Golden-scaled Beast spirit stone …" Xu Geng was slightly shocked.
Gong Xun sneered, "Who knows if the spirit stone of the Golden-scaled Beast was bought from the Imperial Chamber of Commerce. I heard that the relationship between Lin Muyu and Jin Xiaotang is very good. Maybe it was bought."
"Even if it was bought, I have completed the mission." The corner of Lin Muyu's mouth rose. "But the two of you, you bullied my people. Shouldn't you repay something now?"
"Repay what?" Gong Xun sneered. "Do you think you can fight one against two?"
"Why can't I?"
Before he finished speaking, Lin Muyu had already moved. Demonic power quickly gathered on his left fist. With a roar, he punched toward Xu Geng's abdomen. Xu Geng didn't expect this kid to suddenly sneak attack. He hurriedly condensed Qi Armor to protect himself. But it was too late. He only gathered less than 30% of his strength and was hit by the 50% power of the Second Glory!
"Peng!"
The dignified Heavenly Realm Imperial Guard was directly blown away and fell into a pile of broken bricks. There was no more movement.
"You!"
Gong Xun was stunned. He hurriedly gathered his fighting energy into his long sword and attacked.
Lin Muyu laughed wildly. She opened her left hand and the Dragon Scale Wall appeared between her five fingers. It invisibly increased her defense. She forcibly grabbed the opponent's blade with one hand. She opened her right hand and used lightning to control the sword. The Prairie Fire Sword stabbed toward Gong Xun's chest. "Peng!" The sword surged. It didn't break through Gong Xun's Qi Armor, but it had completely shattered his defensive aura.
Her right hand condensed into a palm blade. She increased her fighting energy. The 30% power of the First Glory went straight for Gong Xun's neck.
"Peng!"
The palm strike made Gong Xun lie on the ground. Both his palms fell to the ground, and he also abandoned his sword.
Lin Muyu raised her leg and kicked the back of his knee. She raised her palm and wrapped her flame fighting energy. She grabbed the cloak on his back and kicked in the direction of Wei Chou. She shouted, "Kneel!"
…
Just like that, Gong Xun knelt in front of Wei Chou with a humiliated expression.
