Almu took the grass off his arm and threw it aside, then quickly returned to his master.

"This old man is extraordinary. Even with my strength, I may not be able to defeat him. It seems that there are indeed some mysterious strong men in the Central Plains!"

"We admit defeat this time. Next time we will pick up everything we left behind. We'll see."

They only saw Qi Qige hurriedly supporting Tuoba Hu, and these people turned around and left the prince's mansion.

Just as Chen Xiaonian was about to go forward and chase after him, he was stopped by the old beggar.

"Why are you stopping me? Get rid of them quickly while they are weak. Otherwise, let them go back and help the evildoers to do evil."

The old beggar shook his head slowly.

"It's impossible for these people to fight an unprepared battle. I'm afraid they have people outside. Although Tuoba Hu was seriously injured this time, they can't kill him directly."

"Given our current situation, if we get strong, the reckless people will come over in an instant. We may win, but many people will die in the end."

The prince looked at the beggar, and the old man suddenly felt an indescribable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him decades ago.

It seemed as if I was in the imperial palace, but I had forgotten everything. I was filled with admiration for the old man when I saw that he had such a long-term vision.

"Mr., may I ask your name? Please excuse my rudeness. Please take a seat."

The prince hurried forward and bowed politely.

Chapter 853: Royal Sword Immortal

The old beggar turned his head and looked at Chen Xiaonian, then looked at the other people.

"It seems that we can't stay here for long. We can't stay in the capital any longer."

Before Chen Xiaonian could say anything, the old man turned around and flew away.

Everyone looked at the old man's figure walking slowly away, and for a moment everyone was stunned.

No one knows the identity of this old beggar.

There are not many people in this world who have such strength, but they look like this, and this is the first time they have seen one.

"Who on earth is this old man?"

"Why haven't I heard of this kind of person before?"

"Could it be that this old man was once a sword immortal~?"

"Look at his strength just now. His move was extraordinary. Even Tuoba Hu was afraid of him."

Everyone in the martial arts world was speculating about the old man's background, and at this time, the prince probably had an idea in his mind.

I only saw the prince walking slowly forward and speaking loudly.

"What happened today opened everyone's eyes, as did I. These reckless people have become so rampant. We need to join forces and fight back immediately."

"Today, Tuoba Hu passed away seriously injured, which shows that there are still capable people in our Central Plains. We can definitely win."

"So please leave first. Stay in my house for a while, and then we will discuss it slowly. I believe it won't be long before Tuoba Hu will repeat his mistakes."

These people from the martial arts world gradually dispersed and returned to the house that the prince had arranged for them.

Chen Xiaonian watched the people around him slowly leave, leaving only the prince.

The prince was seen motioning Chen Xiaonian to come into the house.

"My Lord, do you have anything to say?"

The prince spoke in a deep tone, nodded slowly, and spoke slowly.

"Do you know who that old man is?"

Chen Xiaonian looked confused.

"I don't know, I just know that he is very powerful."

The prince nodded slowly and stroked the beard on his chin.

"Once in the palace, there was a person from a royal family, but he went to the famous Longhu Mountain halfway and didn't like staying in the capital."

"Later, he traveled around incognito, learning martial arts, and eventually became a powerful warrior. However, the world had long forgotten that he was a member of the royal family."

·· 0Request flowers0 ······

"This old man looks very familiar to me. He must be the uncle of the current emperor. He was also above the sword immortal back then and almost ascended to become an immortal."

After hearing the prince's speculations, Chen Xiaonian was shocked for a moment. He did not expect that this old man was actually a member of the royal family.

"Why did he become like this?"

The prince frowned and recalled slowly.

... .... 0

"When a person becomes strong enough, he will want to become even stronger, and this old guy is no exception. He wants to become an immortal, so he wants to take this opportunity to open the gate to heaven and ascend to heaven."

"However, the Drunken Sword Immortal is extremely disdainful of the existence of immortals, and he does not allow anyone to become an immortal."

"So when this guy was ascending, he was interrupted by the Drunken Sword Immortal. Since then, the Heavenly Gate has been closed, and he has become the miserable person he is now."

When Chen Xiaonian heard the Drunken Swordsman mentioned by the prince, his face turned pale for a moment.

Isn’t this Drunken Swordsman the same swordsman who taught me swordsmanship on that small island a year ago?

I didn't expect that he was related to the Drunken Swordsman.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened and a group of black-armored soldiers surrounded them.

Chapter 854: Eunuch Chen's Uninvited Appointment

After several black-armored soldiers rushed over, the one leading them turned out to be Eunuch Chen.

All I saw was Eunuch Chen walking towards the prince in an orderly manner.

When the prince saw Eunuch Chen, he changed into ancient costume and looked at him calmly.

"Eunuch Chen pays his respects to the prince."

The prince bowed politely and joined in the greeting.

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. Eunuch Chen, I am a favorite of the emperor. I don't know you have such an attitude. What is the matter with you coming to my "340" today?"

Seeing this, Eunuch Chen looked around and spoke slowly.

"I heard that a ruffian broke in here just now. We followed orders and came here to protect the prince. It seems that a beggar came to your house to cause trouble, so we hurried over to take a look."

The prince looked at Eunuch Chen and muttered to himself for a moment.

"The cat cries out for the mouse in false sympathy, but the weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken with no good intentions."

At this time, Eunuch Chen was looking at Chen Xiaonian next to him.

"Hey, General Chen is here too, I'm sure you know what happened just now."

Chen Xiaonian glanced at the prince, then looked at Eunuch Chen and answered politely.

"There were indeed a few reckless people who came to cause trouble just now, but they have all been taught a lesson and left. They should be fleeing in a hurry now. Eunuch Chen should go out and chase them."

When Eunuch Chen heard this, he asked again.

"So what about the beggar from before?"

Chen Xiaonian's eyes rolled.

"What beggars? I didn't see any. It was just those reckless people making trouble here. Fortunately, I and a few people under the prince's command fought them off together."

After hearing this, Eunuch Chen also knew that Chen Xiaonian was hiding the truth from him.

I only saw the prince speaking quickly.

"Since Eunuch Chen is here, let's sit down and have a meal. It's still early."

The prince deliberately spoke politely, hoping to keep Eunuch Chen in this way.

But now Eunuch Chen only wants to find the beggar and those ruffians.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I have something important to do and cannot stay any longer. We will take our leave now. Sorry for disturbing you."

After Eunuch Chen finished speaking, he turned around and left the prince's mansion.

The prince looked at Eunuch Chen's anxious expression and was afraid that the beggar's suspicions were not much different from what the prince had in mind.

After seeing them walk away, Chen Xiaonian said... 0

"Your Majesty, it seems that your guess is correct. This beggar is indeed of some status. If he is really a member of the royal family, it seems that the actions of Eunuch Chen and his men have also confirmed it."

"But why would they go looking for this beggar? Is this royal family member really that important?"

The prince shook his head slowly and took Chen Xiaonian back to the house.

"You may not understand, but any blood relative of the emperor, once discovered, will either be beheaded or placed under house arrest."

"Because they are likely to rebel in the next second to fight for the position of emperor, and Eunuch Chen and his men are so anxious just to prevent this from happening."

After hearing this, Chen Xiaonian suddenly realized that there was such a troublesome situation in the court.

 0.6 It seems that I don’t understand anything either.

"Chen Xiaonian, I think you are not suitable to stay in the court. Be a free bird and let yourself fly."

"You won't get any chance to show your talents here."

Chen Xiaonian also kept the prince's words in mind, as he had once had such thoughts.

Maybe I really don't fit in here.

Chapter 855: The Rogue's Trick

Chen Xiaonian returned to the room alone, constantly thinking about what the prince had just said. Since he came to the capital, he had been given an official position by the emperor.

Although this period of time was very fulfilling, I still felt unhappy.

I felt as if my freedom was restricted, like a bird trapped in a cage.

Chen Xiaonian looked out the window at the once blue sky and the world where he once roamed.

Maybe I really should belong to this world and find what I yearn for.

Chen Xiaonian blinked his eyes, still a little hesitant, not knowing whether this decision was right or wrong.

After this incident, there was chaos in the capital city, and the officers and soldiers around the capital city were guarding it strictly.

At the same time, turmoil and bloodbath slowly arose in the martial arts world.

I don’t know if it was Mang Ren’s strategy that spread the word of a special treasure throughout the world.

This protection originated from the Western Regions and was something like a jade seal.

It is said that if someone gets hold of it, he will gain a lot of military power. Some people even say that this thing comes from the underworld.

It is said that he can control the ghosts and use this power to rule the world in the near future.

And after hearing about this thing, these people in the capital also started to take action.

For a time, forces from various places slowly chased to the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Chen Xiaonian was patrolling at the foot of the mountain. He walked to a small teahouse and drank tea slowly.

Although he was wearing casual clothes, his righteous look still made everyone shudder.

Especially when thieves saw it, they were even more frightened.

At this moment, a man suddenly crawled out from the haystack opposite, covered in blood.

Chen Xiaonian walked forward with a frown, only to see the man immediately draw out his sword and start swinging at him.

"Get out of here, get away from me. This treasure can only be mine. Get out of here."

Faced with the man's constant roar, Chen Xiaonian continued to move forward. No matter how the sword swung, it could not hit Chen Xiaonian's body.

Chen Xiaonian grabbed the man and pushed him to the ground.

Looking at the blood on his body, but there are no scars on his body, it is obvious that this guy has killed someone.

After Chen Xiaonian pinned him down, he pulled down his bag and opened it. Surprisingly, there was a pitch-black box inside.

This box is also very strange. The top and bottom are buckled together like a trapezoid, and each surface has four small surfaces, tilted at different angles.

There were also some special symbols engraved on these small faces. Chen Xiaonian frowned and still couldn't understand them.

A lot of people suddenly appeared at the back today.
