Outlaw

hiss!

More than a dozen guards gasped at the same time, staring at Xiao Beichen in disbelief with their eyes wide open.

"What? Is this the Dragon King of Great Xia, Xiao Beichen, who has been issuing notices everywhere recently?"

"Why does he look so young? Is this really the guy who founded the Kowloon Alliance?"

"The peak Nine Dragons Alliance made its way into Shangjing. It almost destroyed the entire Daxia Empire!"

"He actually came back as a gift? Just three people with him?"

"..."

The leading guard seemed not to believe his ears, looked Xiao Beichen up and down, and finally said: "Are you really Xiao Beichen?"

Xiao Beichen put his hands behind his back and said calmly: "I don't want to change my name, I am Xiao Beichen. Go report it!"

The leading guard said: "Okay, don't leave here. I'll make a call right away."

With that said, the leader of the guards rushed into the pavilion not far away as quickly as possible. After making a phone call, his attitude changed [-] degrees when he came back: "I just got the order from the commander of the imperial army. You are a distinguished guest of the palace. You can enter the palace at any time. Please follow me."

The leader of the guards personally led the way into the palace.

Xiao Beichen and four others entered the palace.

Great!

Outrageously large.

This is not so much a palace as it is a huge city-state. Patrolling soldiers can be seen everywhere inside, as well as various foreigners and martial arts masters. The staff is very complex. Everyone is very powerful. It is stronger than the outer courtyard of True Dragon Academy.

It's not even much worse than the inner courtyard of True Dragon Academy.

Xiao Beichen's scalp felt numb when he saw it, and he couldn't help but ask the leader of the guards: "Why are there so many martial arts masters gathered in this palace?"

The leader of the guards did not know the inside story and thought that Emperor Yu really valued Xiao Beichen, but he did not hide it: "Recently, major events have been held in the palace, and countless experts have been specially invited to attend. Moreover, since Emperor Yu entered the palace, the number of people in the palace has increased. There are countless martial arts masters in Zhongben. I don’t know the situation very well.”

He was just a small guard, so he didn't know what was going on. Xiao Beichen didn't ask any more questions and continued to move forward.

The palace city is too big. In addition to the core palace, there are also some commercial streets and other ministers' residences. In order to facilitate their work, many top ministers have temporary residences here.

Soon the captain of the guard led Xiao Beichen and four others to the entrance of a large mansion.

Yes, a huge mansion!

There were powerful Forbidden Army men everywhere, the guards were extremely tight, and a chilling aura was flowing freely and suffocatingly.

Even powerful men like Xiao Beichen and the other four could feel the astonishing murderous intent surging from the mansion's gate.

This place is not easy.

Xiao Beichen couldn't help but ask: "What place is this?"

The captain of the guard said: "The Palace of the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army! Our four deputy commanders and the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army have all settled here. According to etiquette and customs, you are the Dragon King of Great Xia. You need to stay here for a few days to thank you for entering the palace. After bathing and changing clothes, You will have to go to court early on another day before you can enter the palace."

It turned out to be the case.

Xiao Beichen nodded without thinking too much: "In that case, let's go in."

Seeing that Xiao Beichen was not angry, the captain of the guard nodded and bent down: "Lord Dragon King, please!"

After entering the mansion, I realized the grandeur of the mansion.

Military training grounds and martial arts fields can be seen everywhere in the front yard. Countless martial arts masters wear iron-blooded armor to practice and fight here.

Shocking!

Among these warriors, there were actually a large number of strong men in the Creation Realm, and even strong men in the Human Tribulation Realm.

There are so many strong men in the imperial army of a palace city.

Just outrageous!

It seems that after the birth of Emperor Yu, the changes brought to the palace and city were huge.

All the way across the front yard to the backyard.

The backyard is a quiet and elegant garden with water pavilions and terraces, which are so beautiful. The captain of the guard stood at the gate but did not dare to enter. He shouted into the inner courtyard: "Dragon King of Great Xia, I came here to bathe and change clothes, and prepare to enter the palace."

Deng Deng Deng!

With the sound of high heels hitting the ground, a tall and beautiful woman wearing a green cheongsam slowly walked out.

This woman is about [-] meters tall, with a devilish figure, tight skin and muscles all over her body, a face like a moon disk, and exquisite facial features. Coupled with this aqua cheongsam outfit, walking in the garden really feels a bit picturesque.

Swish!

When the captain of the guard saw the woman, he immediately raised his hands and saluted: "Chief Supervisor."

The cheongsam woman nodded slightly: "I know it. You go down and receive the reward."

"Thank you, Chief Supervisor!" The guard captain left happily.

The cheongsam woman then raised her head and looked at Xiao Beichen, a bright smile appeared in her beautiful eyes, and she stretched out a delicate hand: "Dragon King, hello."

Xiao Beichen did not reach out: "Who are you?"

The woman in cheongsam said: "The Chief Supervisor of the Palace City. You can understand that I am the absolute confidant around Emperor Yu and the chief steward of the entire Palace City. Like you, I am a member of the Yu clan. But I follow Emperor Yu. My surname is Xiao, Xiao Yue."

Xiao Beichen stretched out his hand, shook it gently, and said coldly: "Hello, Xiao Yue. But let me correct you. I am not from the Yu tribe, my surname is just Xiao."

After being almost killed by the Yu clan at the tomb of Emperor Yu last time, Xiao Beichen no longer had any feelings for the Yu clan.

The mastermind behind the killing of the son-in-law of the Xiao family in Huaidong was Emperor Yu!

And Xiao Zhou, who claimed to be his great-grandfather, was also a deeply hidden old fox. Help Emperor Yu and lead himself into Emperor Yu's tomb. If Xiao Beichen hadn't given up his second life body, he would have died at the hands of Emperor Yu.

Each of these people is more hateful than the last.

If Xiao Beichen still cares about them, he would really be a fool.

Xiao Yue had no expression, and said with a faint smile: "What happened in the past is in the past. Don't worry too much. I will take care of all your activities and affairs in the palace. Don't worry, I will take you there. The palace, enter the palace to meet the saint."

Xiao Beichen: "Okay."

Xiao Yue said: "Please come with me."

In the large garden in the backyard, there are seven huge villas and estates.

Xiao Beichen settled in Manor No. 7.

After settling in, Xiao Yue was very "considerate" in taking care of everyone's food and daily life, and the services provided were still in place. After everything was arranged, he handed his business card to Xiao Beichen: "I'm nearby. If you need anything, just call me at any time."

"By the way, let me remind you. There are distinguished guests living in these seven manors. If you have nothing to do, don't go out, let alone have any conflicts with them. Otherwise, once things get out of control, it will be difficult to deal with."

After leaving a word, Xiao Yue turned around and left.

The living room immediately became quiet.

Xiao Beichen opened the ring and released several people from it.

Puyang Qian, Bai Yuege and Huangfujun. As for Jade Butterfly, Xiao Beichen asked her to go back to Bai Yujing to assist Bai Yujing, and be ready to launch a direct attack on the imperial capital at any time.

Among them, Puyang Qian has not yet broken through the realm of land gods, while Bai Yuege's strength has reached the astonishing virtual realm. This is the first time she has appeared in public in such a long time. As for Huangfujun, he still had the same cold personality as before. He sat aside, drank tea with his head down, and then stopped taking care of things.

Xiao Beichen said: "Bai Yuege, Puyang Qian. Please go nearby and see who lives in the surrounding manors. On the way here, I felt that the people living in the other manors were all It’s extraordinary.”

Swish!

Bai Yuege and Puyang Qian immediately disappeared.

Xiao Beichen glanced at Huangfujun who was not far away: "Pope, the two of them haven't entered the land of immortals yet. I'm worried that something will happen to them. Otherwise, could you please go there."

Xiao Beichen's attitude was still very humble when he ordered the former supreme master of martial arts to do things.

Huangfujun took a sip of tea and said, "Okay."

When the words fell, Huangfu Junren rushed out of the room and disappeared.

There were only four people left in the room: Wen Lingxi, Li Buyi, Xia Mengyao and Xiao Beichen.

No one is in the mood to rest, but sitting here.

They all knew that the battle in the imperial capital was about to begin.

How can I sleep when a life-and-death battle is imminent?

Xiao Beichen took the initiative to make tea for everyone and said calmly: "Mengyao, have you also noticed the extraordinary atmosphere in the manors next door?"

Xia Mengyao said slightly: "Yes. All the top foreign guests who want to enter the palace to meet the saint will be arranged to stay in the Commander's Mansion. The Great Xia Empire is so big, there are some top foreign guests. It is not a rare thing. There are some among them. The auras of the two manors are too weird. Even I can't see through them."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the field suddenly became much more solemn.

Li Buyi said slightly: "I feel two very extraordinary auras. Preliminary estimates suggest that among them are powerful people at the Seven-Star Immortal Realm level, at least..."

Xiao Beichen held the tea cup and began to think deeply.

On the way here, Xiao Beichen heard everyone discussing two important things.

First, Emperor Yu offered sacrifices to heaven and enshrined him in Zen. At that time, Emperor Xia publicly abdicated and abdicated the throne. Emperor Yu took over the throne. From then on, Emperor Yu was the only one left in the land of Daxia. This shows how ambitious Emperor Yu was.

Second, Chao Peacock, the top boss of the Peacock clan, wants to marry Emperor Yu and become the empress.

The first question is easy to understand.

It was only a matter of time before Emperor Yu came to power.

It's just that Xiao Beichen didn't understand that a top powerhouse like Chao Peacock was in the realm of Seven-Star Immortal. How could she marry Emperor Yu?

unreasonable.

Xiao Beichen said in a deep voice: "Meng Yao, don't you think... Chao Kongque's decision to marry Emperor Yu is very abrupt?"

Xia Mengyao frowned slightly: "It is indeed very abrupt. From the information we know, Emperor Yu is not worthy of Chao Peacock. There is a big gap in strength and status between the two sides. There should be something unknown that happened in the middle. Something unexpected happened, otherwise it wouldn’t have happened.”

Xiao Beichen pointed to the two manors outside: "Could the mysterious strong men in Manor No. [-] and Manor No. [-] be related to Chao Peacock marrying Emperor Yu?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. I just felt that Xiao Beichen's idea was too unreasonable.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible.

Xia Mengyao asked seriously: "Tell me what you think."

Xiao Beichen said: "Emperor Yu was once the younger brother of Chao Peacock, and the War between Chao Peacock and Chao Peacock broke out. After the failure, Emperor Yu moved to the tomb of Emperor Yu and began to retreat. He tried every means to extend his life. It has been a full [-] years now. I feel that Emperor Yu is very ambitious. In addition to using my life to revive, he should have even greater ambitions - he is not willing to be a dog of the Peacock clan anymore."

hiss!

Xia Mengyao took a deep breath: "So the strong men in Manor No. [-] and No. [-] outside are Emperor Yu's trump cards against the Peacock Clan? Because of these trump cards, the Chao Peacock of the Peacock Clan is willing to marry?"

Xiao Beichen nodded heavily: "This is just a strong hunch of mine."

Xia Mengyao said deeply: "In this case, it all makes sense."

Xiao Beichen said: "We will know everything when Huangfujun and the others return from inquiring about the news. If my speculations are true, then... the difficulty of our battle in the imperial capital this time will probably exceed our imagination again."

quiet!

Dead quiet!

Everyone present was under great pressure.

Emperor Yu... dared to fight with the Peacock clan. Such a peerless figure, his terror... would be beyond people's imagination.

Not long after, Bai Yuege and Puyang Qian came back.

Xiao Beichen asked: "How is it?"

Bai Yuege shook his head: "The situation in several other manors has been figured out, but the defenses of No. [-] and No. [-] villas are particularly tight, and there are magic circles to isolate the internal and external atmosphere. We can't get close at all."

Puyang Gan said: "That's true. But it's not completely without gain. There are acquaintances of yours in No. [-] Villa. Look."

There were two footsteps outside the door.

I saw Concubine Chen and Elder Chen Ge walking in.

Concubine Chen was very happy to see Xiao Beichen again and greeted her warmly. However, she restrained herself when she saw that Xia Mengyao seemed a little unhappy.

"Hahaha, my good brother!" Mr. Chen Ge was so excited that he stepped forward and gave Xiao Beichen a big hug: "I haven't seen you for so many days. I miss you so much."

Xia Mengyao glanced at Mr. Chen Ge: "How decent is it for a grown man to hug you?"

Mr. Chen Ge was trembling all over, but in the end he did not dare to say anything more and restrained himself a lot.

After some pleasantries, Xiao Beichen invited the two of them to sit down and drink tea: "Mr. Chen Ge, why are you here?"

Chen Ge said: "The day after tomorrow, Emperor Yu will publicly worship heaven at the Chao meeting, and then take over the throne. He will also marry Chao Peacock. I was invited to attend the wedding."

It turned out to be the case.

Xiao Beichen asked straight to the point: "Mr. Chen Ge, do you know who lives in Manor No. [-] and No. [-] next door?"

Mr. Chen Ge's face immediately darkened, he looked around, and lowered his voice and said, "Of course I know that these two people living in the other courtyard have a big background. I tell you, you can't tell anyone."

Xiao Beichen said: "We are brothers, you say."

Chen Ge said: "The top bosses in ASEAN live in the second courtyard."

hiss!

Xiao Beichen took a breath of air: "ASEAN... Emperor Yu is actually related to ASEAN?"

ASEAN, like the Chenzhou Alliance, is Daxia's top global expedition team.

It turns out that Emperor Yu made friends with ASEAN.

Is this the trump card used by Emperor Yu to fight with the Peacock clan?

After a while, Xiao Beichen finally came to his senses: "What about the No. [-] annex?"

Mr. Chen Ge's expression became particularly solemn: "The big guy who lives in the No. [-] annex has a bigger background. He will scare you to death if he says it."

Xiao Beichen: "Don't worry, I won't scare you to death, that's all you say."
