The Xia Palace is huge and covers a vast area.

There are many palaces in it, densely packed and countless.

Qin Wuhen strode across the palace gates, and the maids and guards along the way saluted.

After walking for about half an hour, we arrived in front of the worship hall.

The Enshrining Hall is an extremely luxurious and glorious hall. Even the floor tiles at the entrance are paved with gold. Looking from a distance, there is an air of luxury coming from the paving!

The enshrinement hall has a long history and has existed since the founding of Daxia. Only the most powerful people are not allowed to enter.

It is said that during the peak period of Daxia, there were no fewer than ten worshippers in the Mahayana period, but after all, it was too old and the authenticity needs to be verified.

And at this time, not to mention Daxia, even in the entire continent of China, there are very few powerful people in the Mahayana period, and they are all powerful people in famous towns!

As for this remote area of ​​Cangzhou, the strongest person on the surface is only the cultivation of the God Transformation Realm. Maybe some peak powers have enshrined monks in the Void Return Stage, but they are definitely enshrined as ancestors!

It is said that when the eleventh generation of Xia kings, Qin Jie's predecessor, was in power, Daxia once enshrined two strong men in the return to void stage.

But later he disappeared. Maybe he died after running out of longevity, or maybe he left Daxia and never went anywhere else.

In short, Qin Jie has been in power for two hundred years, and the consecration hall has never left the strong man who has returned to the void stage!

To this day, in the huge worship hall, only the worshipers of the eight late-stage gods exist!

Some of them existed when the eleventh generation King of Xia was on the throne, and the remaining few were recruited from outside just after Qin Jie ascended the throne. Each of them is a famous and powerful person in Daxia!

Ten days ago, in a battle on the border, five of the eight great ministers were killed and three were injured. All the five remaining from the eleventh generation of King Xia died, leaving only three who were recruited after Qin Jie ascended the throne.

There were no guards or maids at the door, so it seemed a bit clean.

Qin Wuhen did not stop and led Li Xiaoyao directly into it, while the guards leading the way were waiting at the door.

Da da!

The crisp footsteps are particularly clear in the wide hall!

"Your Highness, there is a mysterious aura underground, it should be a strong man in the Void Return Stage!"

At this moment, Li Xiaoyao suddenly stepped forward and whispered in Qin Wuhen's ear.

Qin Wuhen's eyes moved slightly, and then he nodded without any trace.

I remember that Lu Bu also said last time that there was an aura of the Void Stage deep in the Xia Palace, but I didn't expect it to be in the enshrinement hall.

If the prediction was correct, this person should be one of the two powerful men in the Void Return Stage worshiped by Daxia when the eleventh generation of Xia King was in power. Unexpectedly, he is still alive!

But a few days ago, Qin Jie fell and he was assassinated in the East Palace. Even after Dongfang Haoran and Nangong Aotian forced the palace to seize the throne, he did not show up to help.

Therefore, Qin Wuhen didn't have much favorable impression of this powerful man in the Void Return Stage!

Eat the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor!

But when the disciples of the royal family faced a crisis, he still stayed on the sidelines and had absolutely no professional ethics as a worshipper!

"Don't worry about him! Let's go!"

Qin Wuhen had no expression on his face, whispered something, and led Li Xiaoyao directly to the upper floor of the hall.

The worship hall is divided into three floors. Qin Wuhen has never been here before, so he doesn't know which floor these worshipers live on, so he can only search for them one by one.

…

The Enshrinement Hall is deep in the underground palace.

An old man wearing a linen gray robe sat cross-legged on the futon in the center of the brightly lit secret room with his eyes closed. His eyes that were originally slightly closed slowly opened.

Raising his head slightly, the old man's gaze seemed to transcend the barriers and saw two figures circling upward.

"The little guy should have discovered me, but he pretended that I didn't exist..."

The old man murmured in a low voice, and a helpless smile appeared on his old face: "I wanted to take action that day, but that little guy Xiao Ping arrived in time, and I didn't show up..."

"Now that boy Qin Jie has died, Daxia is in a critical situation, and I am unable to support you alone. I can only save your Qin family bloodline at the critical moment!"

The old man sighed slightly and murmured: "The Great Xia Dynasty will always have to rely on yourself!"

There was silence for a moment.

As if he remembered something, the old man suddenly shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Qin Jie's kid is extremely arrogant. He has been in power for two hundred years. Although he knew about my existence, he never asked me for help. I didn't expect this kid's

His temper is even more proud..."

"However, now that these three guys wake up, it is not that easy to subdue them!"

A teasing smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth, and he said to himself: "When you can't restrain these three guys later, I will help you!"

"Although the boy who practices swordsmanship is also pretty good, these three guys are all at the peak of god transformation..."

…

"Your Majesty, it's on the third floor!"

When he reached the second floor, Li Xiaoyao glanced around slightly, and then he cupped his hands towards Qin Wuhen.

Hearing this, Qin Wuhen nodded slightly and continued walking towards the third floor.

When we reached the third floor, the door opened wide.

In the magnificent hall, there is a statue of the Immortal Emperor. In front of the statue, there is a three-foot-square Yaotai.

On the floor in front of the Yaotai, three figures were sitting cross-legged.

Qin Wuhen had seen these three people in his memory. They were the three gods in the transformation stage who followed Qin Jie to the border ten days ago and returned seriously injured!

The one in the middle is an old man with pale beard and hair, with white eyebrows reaching to his neck, dry skin and wrinkles.

This person's name is Taoist Baimei. He ranks first in strength among the eight original worshippers. He has reached the peak of divine transformation a hundred years ago. He is a strong casual cultivator recruited by Qin Jie from Daxia!

Sitting on the left and right sides are two middle-aged men with very similar faces. Their black eyebrows fly into their temples, showing no anger or authority!

The two are twin brothers who major in swordsmanship. The elder brother is named Zhao Xuan and the younger brother is named Zhao Ming. They form the Xuanming Sword King!

The two were not originally from the Daxia Dynasty. They were hunted into Daxia a hundred years ago. They were rescued by Qin Jie and later voluntarily joined the Enshrinement Hall.

As for the cultivation level of the two people, Qin Wuhen didn't know much about it, because these two people rarely took action and only obeyed the orders of Qin Jie.

"Your Majesty, the three of them are all at the peak of the Divine Transformation stage!"

At this moment, Li Xiaoyao's voice suddenly came to his ears.

Qin Wuhen nodded calmly and walked straight into the door.

As if they heard the noise, the three people who had closed their eyes to rest slowly opened their eyes.

But looking at Qin Wuhen who walked straight in, the three of them did not speak, nor did they stand up to salute.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoyao frowned slightly.

Although the enshrinement hall was above all officials and had no hierarchy, it was still subject to royal power and was under the jurisdiction of the Xia king.

When the three of them saw His Majesty, they did not stand up to salute. What does that mean?

Qin Wuhen's eyes also moved slightly, feeling something unusual.

But thinking that the three of them were injured while protecting the late king, Qin Wuhen suppressed his thoughts for the time being and did not dwell too much on the matter.

"It's really gratifying that the three worshipers have come out of confinement. I wonder how they are recovering from their injuries?"

Walking straight up to the three of them, Qin Wuhen smiled slightly and said a word of concern.

"Thank you for your concern, His Majesty the Crown Prince. I'll be fine with you!" the old man sitting in the middle said in a neutral tone.

Still not standing up?

Li Xiaoyao frowned and stepped forward: "Your Majesty has ascended the throne a long time ago and is now the thirteenth King of Xia!"

"oh?"

Taoist Baimei raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Qin Wuhen and said, "When did His Highness ascend the throne? Why don't we know?"

"How outrageous! When will His Majesty ascend the throne? Do I still need to report to you?"

With a scolding, Li Xiaoyao suddenly stood up, looked at the three of them sharply, and shouted: "Your Majesty has arrived, and you haven't gotten up to pay homage. Do you want to rebel?!"

The expressions of the three people changed, their brows furrowed slightly, and they looked at Li Xiaoyao with cold eyes.

Zhao Xuan, the Xuanming Sword King, said with a cold tone: "When I am talking to His Highness the Crown Prince, when will it be your turn for one of the accompanying guards to interrupt!"

The words just fell!

A huge momentum suddenly surged out, pressing towards Li Xiaoyao!
