Chu Zhong nodded seriously: "Senior Brother Ji once saved my life. I found a way to enter the Xiongwu Empire, so naturally I have to take him with me."
"Well, let's go to the city together."
Lu Chen laughed and handed the city guard a city tax of 20 million Xuanjing.
Although the accommodation fee in the imperial city is very high, Chu and Zhong can live in their own courtyard.
Anyway, the yard is so big that twice as many people can fit in.
Lu Chen has heard of Ji Sunying, who is said to be an anomaly in the Lingxiao Palace. He likes to meddle in other people's affairs, but he is very powerful and makes people both love and hate him.
What I love is that sometimes Ji Sunying can really help them.
What they hate is that Ji Sunying sometimes causes trouble for them and prevents them from doing whatever they want.
However, Lu Chen had never been in contact with Ji Sunying, and he did not know that the formation he used to trap Jin Zhong in the Laosheng Competition Field was actually broken by Ji Sunying.
In short, the fact that Ji Sunying can have such a reputation shows that he is a good person.
As for Hidden Blade Chu Zhong, after knowing the path to enter the Xiongwu Empire, he could still think of calling Ji Sunying, which is already a great advantage.
Therefore, Lu Chen did not reject them and immediately brought them into the city.
Chu Zhong sighed: "The master of the palace is so powerful that he can bring us in at will. Even if we paid multiple times the fee before, they didn't recognize it and we were not allowed to enter."
"The imperial city is strictly controlled."
Lu Chen said.
I still remember that when I first came with Palace Master Shi Daoxiong and the others, the city guard first checked the three palace masters’ records of leaving the city before letting them in.
After all, this is the imperial city, and no one with a hint of suspicion can enter. Danger and unrest must be nipped in the bud.
Whoosh!
A figure suddenly fell not far away.
Chu Zhong's eyes suddenly froze and he said: "Palace Master, this man chased us all the way and we finally got rid of him. I didn't expect that he could still follow us."
Lu Chen's mental power stayed on Chu Zhong and Ji Sunying for a moment, and said: "You have been marked for tracking."
"What! Impossible!"
Chu Zhong's face changed drastically and he never believed it.
He is the Hidden Sword Chu Zhong, the king of assassinations.
He had always been the only one to put a mark on others, so how could it be someone's turn to put a mark on him, and he didn't know anything about it yet.
But even with Lu Chen's reminder, Chu Zhong used his mental power to carefully examine the body, but no marks were found.
His face became even more ugly.
Although he had not seen with his own eyes how powerful Lu Chen was, Lu Chen's deeds had become a legend in the Lingxiao Palace.
So what Lu Chen said is definitely true.
In other words, I was really marked by someone, but I didn't know it.
What a shame!
"Why is he chasing you?"
Lu Chen asked.
Chu Zhong said: "Palace Master, I practice assassination. I am good at concealing assassinations, so I am sensitive to things with a darker nature.
Along the way, I happened to have a sense and found a blood agate.
This is a treasure. There is milky blood-colored chalcedony in the agate, which contains the power of multiple rules.
I was naturally very excited to get this treasure, which led to some omissions.
At this time, he was attacked and seriously injured by that guy.
If it hadn't been for Senior Brother Ji's intervention, I'm afraid I would have died.
We then fought and fled, and I healed quickly.
There was another fight, and the guy was attacked by me and escaped with injuries.
I thought I had completely gotten rid of him, but I didn't expect him to catch up with me again.
Palace Master, you can kill people outside this imperial city.
Senior Brother Ji and I are going to kill this kid to avenge him for being hunted down!"
Lu Chen nodded and said: "There is no control outside the Imperial City, so you can go ahead."
When Chu Zhong heard this, he looked at Ji Sunying and immediately stepped forward to take action.
But the man smiled coldly and said, "I am a disciple of the Xiongwu Dao Academy. How dare you touch me?"
"Xiongwu Temple?"
Chu Zhong and Ji Sunying didn't hear it at all and looked at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen said: "It doesn't matter, it's no big deal for the disciples of Xiongwu Taoist Academy, let's do it."
Chu Zhong was overjoyed and laughed loudly: "What the hell, a disciple of the Xiong Martial Arts Academy, you want to scare people."
The man's expression changed, he glared at Chase Lu angrily, and cursed: "Who do you think you are? How dare you say that the disciples of the Xiongwu Dao Academy are no big deal."
Lu Chen laughed and said: "I am not talented, but I happen to be a disciple of the Holy Way of Xiongwu Taoist Academy."
"ah?"
The man's breath was stagnant and he was speechless for a while.
I, an ordinary disciple of the Xiongwu Dao Academy, is indeed inferior to other disciples of the Holy Path.
He couldn't help but panic, and shouted: "You can't touch me, my cousin is the Great Emperor of the Holy Path..."
As he spoke, his face showed joy and he cheered: "Cousin, you are finally here, stop them from entering the city, help me stop them."
"Lecture of the Holy Emperor?"
Chu Zhong and Ji Sunying were surprised and confused again, wondering what kind of status this was.
However, I heard that Master Lu Chen said that he was a disciple of the Holy Way, but this person was called the Great Emperor of the Holy Way.
So does it mean that they are relatively higher than the disciples of the Holy Way?
Can Master Lu Chen suppress him?
For a moment, they hesitated.
The two looked at each other and thought it would be better to retreat first.
"Walk!"
Chu Zhong shouted quickly.
"Too late!"
A middle-aged man snorted coldly and grabbed his right hand in the air. Rattans grew out of thin air and condensed into a cage, trapping Lu Chen, Chu Zhong, Ji Sunying and others.
Chu Zhong's face changed greatly: "This man is so strong, Palace Master, I am the one who has caused you trouble."
Lu Chen looked indifferent, waved his hand calmly, and said: "It doesn't matter."
He casually grabbed it with his right hand and saw the rattan cage disintegrating instantly.
"Eh!"
The middle-aged man looked surprised and said, "You practice the law of wood. Why haven't I seen you before?"
The middle-aged man stepped over and stared at Chase Lu.
Lu Chen said: "There are so many disciples, so of course not everyone can see the lectures."
"That's true."
The middle-aged man nodded: "Since you are a disciple of the Holy Way of Wood, I don't have to argue with you. But these two people must be left behind to make amends to my cousin!"
"Cousin, they took away my blood agate. I don't have to argue with them, as long as they hand over the blood agate."
The man in the distance immediately ran over, pointed at Chu Zhong and said.
He also knows what it means to be a disciple of the Holy Way of Xiongwu Dao Yuan.
What my cousin said just now also shows that he doesn't want to have too much conflict with this disciple of the Holy Way.
Therefore, he also chose to give in to avoid making things difficult for his cousin.
I believe that even the disciples of the Holy Path should be given a bit of a thumbs-down by my cousin who holds the Emperor's Lectureship of the Holy Path.
Chu Zhong shouted angrily: "You are talking nonsense!"
The wood lecturer interrupted Chu Zhong's words, looked at Chu Zhong, and said coldly: "Young man, I believe that my cousin will not lie. Since you have taken away what originally belonged to him, I advise you to still
Forget it if you come back. As a lecturer of the holy way, I will naturally not make things difficult for you again."
"you!"
Chu Zhong was angry and looked at Lu Chen.
If Lu Chen hadn't been present, he and Ji Sunying would have taken action against this person long ago.
But now that Lu Chen is involved, he can't make any decisions.
"Okay. Let's deal with anything later. Let's go into the city."
When Lu Chen arrived, he led Chu Zhong and Ji Sunying into the imperial city as if there was no one around.
The expressions of both Lecturer and his cousin changed.
The cousin shouted: "Cousin, why didn't you stop them?"
The lecturer's face darkened: "This person is very powerful and is by no means an ordinary person. When I go back to find out where he came from, I will settle the score later!"
After that, he took his cousin into the imperial city.
Being able to achieve the Great Emperor's Lectureship of the Holy Path is naturally not a simple person, and he will not make enemies easily.
But just now Lu Chen and the two of them passed by him, and he didn't even react.
This shows how terrifying Lu Chen is.
How can you provoke such a person at will?
You must plan clearly before making plans.
On this side, Lu Chen, along with Chu Zhong and Ji Sunying, had entered the Xiongwu Taoist Academy.
There is no need for Lu Chen to waste time solving such small matters as Chu Zhong.
Anyway, I have my own yard, so if Chu Zhong and the others can live there, there won't be any problems.
The rules of Xiongwu Taoist Academy are strict and killing is impossible. No one dares to kill here.
No matter how strong he is or how high his status is, when this rule is set, it is an ironclad order.
Not even the Holy Path Emperor Lecture.
Unless you leave the city.
Therefore, the problem of Chu Zhong and Ji Sunying is not a problem here.
Let them solve the next thing by themselves.
Now that I have come to Xiongwu Taoist Academy, I naturally want to become a peerless strongman.
I have given them the opportunity to move in, and they will find their own way out after that.
Lu Chen couldn't always protect them.
The most important thing at the moment is to quickly complete the practice of the "Great Sleep Heart Sutra".
After experiencing the life of a mortal and gaining the benefits of peace of mind, Lu Chen has found a way to improve his strength.
Entering the small world, he immediately took out the grains he had collected and the animal bag used to capture wild beasts.
After that, he began a life of sunrise and sunset, and rest at sunset.
The days were very leisurely.
The days of idle clouds and wild cranes caused Lu Chen's aura to change significantly.
He deliberately kept his mind completely empty and did not think about anything.
Because he gave up the nourishment of spiritual energy, his strong body required a lot of energy, so he had to eat constantly.
After eating too much, I started to be particular and wanted to eat better.
So my whole day is spent studying how to eat.
After eating, I rested, then hunted game, planted flowers and trees, chopped firewood to feed the horses, and studied seasonings...
day to day.
Lu Chen's mind was completely filled with these daily life, and for a moment, he forgot his identity.
He no longer thinks about other things, the past or the future, or worries.
All you think about is the present.
Before I knew it, several years had passed.
The wild beasts raised by Lu Chen were all tamed into poultry by him.
On this day, he was lying on a bench in the courtyard, looking at the sunset, and couldn't help but feel satisfied.
Sleepiness slowly came over me.
Lu Chen closed his eyes.
At this moment, he felt extremely peaceful.
All spiritual power and aura were left behind by him.
But somehow, he seemed to be able to hear the sound of his body transforming.
It was a cheering cry.
It was as if my body had finally been nourished and it was about to enter another level.
Lu Chen was surprised and delighted: "Is this the benefit of deep sleep?"
He was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that he had succeeded unknowingly.
Once your body improves again, your strength will improve greatly.
Originally, I had a strong body that was baptized by lightning. I didn't know how tough my body would become after this promotion.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen immediately unlocked the seal on his body, threw out more than a billion Xuan Crystals, and practiced crazily.
Take this opportunity to replenish your body with spiritual energy, and you will also be able to improve your cultivation level.
Another year passed quickly.
Lu Chen's cultivation level was successfully promoted to the ninth level of the void realm, and he also absorbed the cold air of the ice crystal water, and his small dantian was promoted to the sixth level of the void realm.
He has completely entered the top level, the fifteenth level of the Void Realm!
In addition, even his mental power has made a breakthrough, reaching the ninth level of delusion!
