"Father." Chen Mo walked into the tent and bowed down.

Sun Shouren rushed to the capital with a thousand soldiers. He could enter the city, but the thousands of soldiers could not for the time being.

We can only set up camp outside the city to make arrangements first, wait for the emperor's order, and then see how to arrange these soldiers.

Sun Shouren looked at Chen Mo in front of him with a complicated expression, including shock, surprise, confusion, and confusion.

As early as two or three days ago, when he was still on the road, he received a letter from his friend Lu Chuan.

The letter said a lot of things, mainly about his adopted son Chen Mo, whose cultivation had already reached the acquired state. Not only that, his combat power was far superior to that of a warrior of the same level.

The most important thing is that he also made a great contribution and saved the life of the eldest prince.

To be honest, if he didn't know his old friend well enough, Sun Shouren would even think that this letter was sent to him because his old friend went crazy.

He knew every word in the letter, but he couldn't understand the whole paragraph.

He couldn't figure out how Chen Mo had acquired the strength.

This is the most important question. Saving the eldest prince can be said to be a coincidence, but when did he reach the acquired realm?

This question really confused Sun Shouren, and he had been on the road in the past few days in order to get to the capital as soon as possible so that he could ask Chen Mo in person.

But until now, he didn't know how to speak.

"Back to my foster father, I asked people to buy vegetables and wine from the city, and hired many carriages. I estimate that these things can be delivered to all the brothers before this evening."

Mo Hu spoke first and said that since they arrived a few days in advance, it was naturally impossible for them to do nothing.

They stationed troops near the capital, and although the court would provide them with food and salary, they had to do the purchasing themselves.

"Okay, you go make arrangements first." Sun Shouren nodded lightly towards Mo Hu.

"My child understands." He bowed his hands and retreated slowly.

He still doesn't know Chen Mo's true strength. Firstly, Chen Mo has not told him specifically. Secondly, because of his official position, no one in the capital will tell him these things specifically.

The fact that Chen Mo rescued the eldest prince that day is indeed spreading, but so far, only a small number of people know about it.

Most people don't know these things.

This matter will not be announced to the world until the great court meeting in a few days.

Chen Mo's name, identity and strength will become known to everyone.

After Mo Hu left, Sun Shouren waved away the other soldiers in the camp and asked them to guard outside. Then he looked at Chen Mo with an extremely confused and puzzled look.

Since getting the letter from his friend that day, Sun Shouren has been thinking about nothing more than food and drink these days, and has read the letters back and forth countless times.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out why Chen Mo was in the acquired state.

He has only been practicing for a long time. Even if he has extremely high qualifications and understanding, and is a rare genius that can only be seen in a hundred years, he is still not so defiant.

In the past two years, I have never been exposed to martial arts training and have reached the acquired realm.

This span was a bit too big, and Sun Shouren couldn't accept it.

Although he has not been practicing since he was a child, he has been practicing foreign martial arts and stretching his muscles and bones since he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and it has been nearly thirty years now.

In the middle of the journey, he switched to practicing internal martial arts. His aptitude was quite good, and his practice went smoothly. Only then did he finally reach the perfection of the meridians, which was only a short step away from the day after tomorrow.

Although he is not as good as Lu Chuan and Zhou Dong who come from a wealthy family, he has good looks and has been exposed to cultivators since he was a child.

But looking at the world, he has worked hard all the way to this day, and his qualifications are by no means bad.

Only he himself knows the hardships and hardships along the way.

But what about Chen Mo?

Two years of practice had far exceeded his thirty years of hard work, and Sun Shouren could not accept it.

Not to mention Chen Mo's poor background, even if he is the legitimate son of a top family, it is impossible for him to cultivate to the acquired realm in just two years.

This is too fast, almost impossible.

Since learning the news, Sun Shouren has been thinking about it every day.

Sometimes when he was lying in bed and about to fall asleep, he would suddenly think of this question and want to know how Chen Mo cultivated and could reach the acquired state so quickly.

If this is a talent, then this talent is too outrageous.

Sun Shouren couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out!

"Have you really acquired the ability now?" Sun Shouren said slowly with a very complicated look on his face.

Chen Mo nodded lightly, and with a wave of his hand, a slightly purple-colored air wall spread from himself and quickly covered the entire camp.

"Ah!" Sun Shouren looked at everything in front of him and felt that his brain was not functioning smoothly.

Of course he knew that releasing inner Qi to the outside was a unique sign of acquired warriors.

Moreover, Chen Mo's inner energy can be released so far, which shows that his cultivation level is by no means beyond the early stage of acquired life.

At least we must completely open the door of heaven and earth and reach the middle stage of acquired life.

He found it difficult to accept this, but at least he had enough psychological expectations because he knew the news two days ago.

However, the amount of inner energy that Chen Mo could mobilize and the range it covered seemed a bit scary to him.

You must know that although his camp is a temporary structure, it is still more than ten feet in area. To completely cover it, the amount of inner energy that needs to be mobilized is massive.

If we say this, there are still people who can do it. After all, Houtian warriors can replenish their inner energy at an extremely fast speed.

As long as the replenishment speed is fast enough, it is indeed possible for them to mobilize internal energy that far exceeds their own quantity.

But not only that, Sun Shouren could also feel how powerful the inner energy was.

It was not that Sun Shouren had no chance to come into contact with the acquired warriors. In fact, he had seen even the acquired warriors at the perfect state when they took action.

However, as far as he knew, no warrior in the acquired realm had an inner energy that was as condensed to the extreme as Chen Mo, and was almost on the verge of becoming a physical entity.

The fact that Chen Mo was able to practice to the acquired state was beyond his expectation and he couldn't accept it for a while.

But at any rate, this matter had been foreshadowed for a long time, and now everything that appeared in front of him made him don't know how to react.

"This...this..." Sun Shouren opened his mouth several times in a row, but he couldn't explain it.

The shock that Chen Mo brought to him in the past few days was really hard for him to accept.

However, the sight in front of him was certainly horrifying, but Sun Shouren had been fighting on the battlefield all year round, so he was not stunned for long. When he recovered, he asked, "Have you really only practiced for two years?"

"This matter is complicated to say. In fact, my child has been exposed to some spiritual practices in Qingzhou, but he has not become famous.

It wasn’t until I fled all the way to Dingzhou and worshiped you as my adoptive father that my path of spiritual practice became smooth.

I only broke through the acquired realm not long ago, but I have both internal and external cultivation, so my combat power is slightly stronger. "

Chen Mo considered his tone and spoke slowly.

Sun Shouren rubbed his face vigorously to make sure that everything in front of him was true, and then he nodded lightly.

He understood that even if Chen Mo had been exposed to martial arts before, he could only do it in a simple way.

Otherwise, it is impossible for him not to know the difference between internal and external warriors, and it is even more impossible for him to not know the internal energy.

These are the basic common sense of cultivation. As long as he really knows something about cultivation, it is impossible not to know it.

The most important thing is that Chen Mo doesn't know many words at all.

That is enough to prove that his previous family background was definitely not good, otherwise how could he not even know the words.

Therefore, he was able to cultivate to the acquired realm only in these two years.

Sun Shouren wanted to understand this and sat quietly in his chair, not wanting to say another word.

He knew that there were geniuses in the world, but this genius was a bit too genius.

He had not reached this stage after thirty years of training, but Chen Mo had far surpassed him in two years.

This was indeed a big blow to him.

But soon he stood up again, smiled and patted Chen Mo on the shoulder. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

"Yes, I knew I was right about the person. You really have talent."

Sun Shouren smiled happily, even a little wildly.

Chen Mo's talent is very good, but he is his adopted son, so the better his talent is, the better it is for him.

Although I don't have the acquired realm yet, Chen Mo can do it.

In this way, he can be regarded as being able to mobilize a strong person in the acquired realm.

The more Sun Shouren thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and he couldn't control the smile on his face.

Although he didn't know exactly how Chen Mo practiced to reach the acquired realm within two years.

But he knows one thing, that is, his adopted son is a strong person, and very strong.

that's enough.

Compared to this, other things are not that important now.

Everyone has secrets, and Sun Shouren had no intention of getting to the bottom of it. He only knew a little.

That is, Chen Mo is still willing to recognize himself as his adoptive father, so that his previous efforts in cultivating him will not be in vain.

"As long as I know that you will reach the acquired state after practicing for two years, please don't tell anyone again.

If someone asks me, I will tell you that you have been practicing cultivation since you were a child, but the conditions at home are not good, so you worship me as your adoptive father.

It takes two years to reach the acquired state. This is a bit too shocking. It is a good thing to attract a little attention, but it is not a good thing to attract too much attention. "

Sun Shouren looked cautious. He was not a young man, and he understood that going too far was not enough.

Chen Mo is now twenty-two years old. Counting that he was introduced to spiritual practice at the age of five, he has cultivated to the acquired state in seventeen years. He can be called an absolute genius, but he can still accept it.

If it only takes two years, it will be unacceptable.

It will inevitably attract a lot of attention, which is not a good thing.

"The child understands that everything is subject to the arrangements of his adoptive father."

Chen Mo bowed and said, this was what he had thought before.

"Now that you have rescued the eldest prince, this is a great achievement. His Majesty will definitely reward you heavily. Maybe your official position will surpass mine soon!" Sun Shouren sighed softly.

Failure to break through the acquired realm is a major flaw for him. Even if he can improve further, it will be difficult to gain real power because he cannot suppress his subordinates.

Chen Mo is different. He has strength and merit. It is only a matter of time before his official position surpasses his own, and it is foreseeable that it will not be long.

"Then you are also my adoptive father." Chen Mo said with a smile.

What he said was sincere, because his adoptive father was really very kind to him.

"Haha." Sun Shouren laughed, looking quite happy.

"Father, someone from the palace is coming." Chen Mo waved his hand to clear away the surrounding internal energy, and then the outside voice came.

"Father, someone from the palace is here to look for you." Mo Hu's voice continued to ring outside the camp.

Chen Mo had previously used inner energy to cover the tent, and the sounds inside and outside were naturally completely isolated.

However, Chen Mo could detect external sounds with the help of his inner energy, but Sun Shouren could not hear them.

Sun Shouren heard the sound and hurried out of the tent. A palace servant wearing a water satin blue robe was standing outside the tent waiting.

"According to His Majesty's oral instructions, Sun Shouren, the guard of Xingyuan Prefecture, and his adopted son Chen Mo, the chief director of the Salt Transportation Department of Xingyuan Prefecture, will immediately enter the palace to see Your Majesty."

Seeing Sun Shouren walking out, the palace servant immediately read out the order.

"I accept your order." Sun Shouren and Chen Mo said in unison.

"It seems that His Majesty values ​​you very much and wants to see you in person before the court meeting." Sun Shouren lowered his voice and spoke to Chen Mo.

As a guard of a government and leading troops to the capital, he would inevitably be summoned by the emperor, but under normal circumstances he would have to wait until the next morning, and it would never be a sudden meeting with him now.

And he had just settled down when His Majesty sent a verbal order and suddenly wanted to see him and Chen Mo.

There was no need to think about it, and he knew that he was probably just a foil, and His Majesty mainly wanted to see Chen Mo.

The two of them walked with the palace servants and arrived at the palace city not long after.

The palace city is built with a luxurious atmosphere, and the palaces are well-proportioned and distributed throughout the palace city.

The carefully fired glazed tiles reflect the various colors of the sunset against the backdrop of the setting sun.

Each palace is designed and built by master craftsmen. The materials of each beam and column are quite special, like fine mutton-fat white jade but extremely strong.

The beams and pillars are carved with dragons and phoenixes, and the exquisite and detailed reliefs cost a lot of manpower.

Even the white marble slabs under your feet should be specially polished and replaced from time to time.

The Yulin guards on duty in the palace patrolled and replaced each other, making the place airtight.

Under the leadership of the palace official who read the oral edict, Chen Mo walked through the palace without any obstruction, and finally came to a side hall.

"Two adults, His Majesty is currently handling political affairs in the palace. We have to wait for a while." The palace minister said with a smile.

"No need to wait, come in." A deep and powerful voice came from the side hall.

In fact, according to the rules, Chen Mo and the others should wait for the announcement before entering the palace to have an audience.

But as the emperor, what he says is the biggest rule.

Sun Shouren looked Chen Mo up and down, straightened his appearance, and then walked into the hall.

Chen Mo followed him step by step.
