"Huh!? Zhenren Hou, you said King Fu Zun wants to protect this person!?"

The chief catcher immediately looked at the man in white robes in shock.

Master Hou? King Fu Zun!?

Fang Ce suddenly looked at the man in white robes in surprise. This man turned out to be a member of King Fuzun!? And he came to protect him!? This was really unexpected! After all, he originally guessed that this time the matter was probably caused by King Fuzun.

He is doing something secretly and needs to be punished! King Fuzun will come forward to protect him. I really didn’t expect it!

"Not bad, any questions?"

At this moment, Master Nahou responded calmly.

This Master Hou has seven hundred years of Taoism, which is not simple.

The Chief Inspector frowned: "Zhenren Hou, even if King Fu Zun comes forward, you can't just let this person be taken away. After all, this is a key criminal who has been decreed by the Holy One to be captured..."

"This is the Holy Mandate. It has confirmed this little brother's innocence. Is it enough to protect this man?"

Hou Zhenren took out a book and unfolded it.

"This!? A decree from the Holy One!? When did this happen!? Why didn't the Holy One inform..."

"Huh? Doesn't it mean that His Majesty needs to report to you, the chief catcher, on how he wants to handle things?"

Hou Zhenren's eyes narrowed.

"No! No! I don't dare!!"

The chief catcher quickly clasped his fists and lowered his head.

"Okay, Mr. Xin, little brother, let's go."

Hou Zhenren immediately looked at Xin Yu and Fang Ce.

"Um."

Xin Yu nodded, and the three of them turned and left together.

Arrive outside the capital.

"You two, my master has prepared a banquet and is waiting for your arrival."

Hou Zhenren smiled and said.

Fang Ce couldn't help but look at Xin Yu, he was still very confused about the situation.

"Thank you very much. It's just that Xin Yu and Fang Ce are still a little inconvenient and can't attend the banquet. I hope Master Hou will report back to King Fu Zun and come to visit you again if you have the opportunity. I'm really sorry."

Xin Yu cupped his fists and saluted.

Fang's sense of strategy was weird. Logically speaking, the other party came to help, so there was no reason to refuse at this time anyway. After all, it was too disrespectful.

"That's it...Okay, I'll take my leave for now, please."

Hou Zhenren cupped his fists and saluted.

"please."

Xin Yu responded with cupped fists.

After Master Hou left.

"Fairy, what on earth is going on? Did King Fuzun come forward to help us?"

Fang Ce was confused. He was really confused now. After all, everything was so sudden.

"Well... you can put it that way..."

Xin Yu responded thoughtfully.

"You can say that? Fairy, how much do you know about this matter? Otherwise, why would you reject King Fuzun's invitation? Is the Holy One trying to arrest us?"

Fang Ce was confused.

"It's the Holy One who wants to arrest us. This matter is like this..."

Xin Yu slowly told Fang Ce what Lord Shangqing had said before.

"Oh? So, there are powerful forces in the imperial court who want to deal with us? Then the Holy One had to respond, so I became the scapegoat?"

Fang Ce was surprised and felt even more strange in his heart. Could this be considered a sudden disaster?

"Well, I suspect that this is King Fuzun directing and acting on his own. But all this will only be clear after meeting the Holy One."

Xin Yu frowned.

"King Fu Zun directed and acted on his own?"

Fang Ce was confused.

"Well, because when I was in the capital, I was anxious about how to get you out of trouble. King Fu Zun's subordinate Hou Zhenren came with the Holy Oracle..."

"I see, that is to say, King Fuzun had known for a long time that we would be imprisoned, and also knew our itinerary. Otherwise, he would not have come forward for us at such a coincidence. No, he just came out for me?"

Fang Ce looked strange. After all, as the scapegoat, he was the only one who would be injured in this incident...

"Well, so we have to be on guard against this one."

Xin Yu responded.

"That's interesting. So what are we going to do next? Continue to stay in the capital? There's no news from the Holy One?"

Fang Ce asked. He was now curious about King Fuzun's plans. After all, they would be involved with King Fuzun, and they would only have old grudges against the thieves in Yu County who were wiped out by Fang Ce. But since it was a grudge,

Why did King Fuzun resort to such repeated tactics?

Wouldn't it be enough to just put him in jail and deal with it? Could it be that there is a deeper purpose to this?

"There is no news from His Majesty now, and we cannot leave the capital at will. Let's stay at the inn first, so as to wait for news from His Majesty."

Xin Yu responded.

"Um."

Fang Ce shrugged casually.

The two of them arrived at the inn and arranged their accommodation.

In the room, Fang Ce and Xin Yu had just sat down and were about to drink tea.

"Master Xin, are you here?"

A somewhat familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"Huh? Who?"

Xin Yu was confused.

Fang Ce was also curious.

"I am a guard of the imperial palace. I have come to summon Lord Xin to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit at the request of the Holy One."

The voice responded.

"Your Majesty?"

Xin Yu and Fang Ce were surprised at how fast this speed was. After all, they were leaving the capital...

"Okay, sir guard, please wait a moment."

Xin Yu immediately stood up and came to the door, opening the door.

What caught her eye was an acquaintance, the guard who had given her orders for the first few times!

"Master Xin, we meet again."

The guard smiled and spoke.

"I have met the Lord Guard."

Xin Yu responded with a smile.

Fang Ce on the side couldn't help but be curious about the identity of the guard. After all, it now seemed that this person might be a confidant of the Holy Emperor.

"You're welcome, Mr. Xin, your invitation is welcome."

The guard turned slightly sideways to indicate.

"Thank you, sir."

Xin Yu nodded and stepped forward, preparing to follow the guard to the palace.

And Fang Ce followed suit.

"This little brother, please stay. Your Majesty has only summoned Lord Xin."

The guard extended his hand to stop Fang Ce.

Fang Ce couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Fang Ce, please stay here for now. I'll be back as soon as I go. It shouldn't take long."

Xin Yu opened his mouth.
