At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

Lin Chen thought of the two women who had escaped with Chen Lei before. One of them was flying southward. His face was slightly condensed.

Queen Yunzhi saw Lin Chen's face change and hurriedly said, "Do you suspect she is a traitor?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen nodded.

Queen Yunzhi said, "If you want to find her, I can send someone to help you track her down! However, the traitor is cunning, and her strength is amazing. Don't be impulsive!"

"It's okay, I'll be careful."

Lin Chen comforted Queen Yunzhi and then left the palace.

"Alas."

As soon as Lin Chen left, Queen Yunzhi's face was full of sorrow. She muttered resentfully, "How many times have I told you not to call me my wife? If you call me like this again, I will be angry!"

...

Night fell.

The night enveloped the entire continent.

Tall buildings rose from the ground, and the lights flickered and intertwined like a galaxy.

On the top floor of a skyscraper over 400 meters high, Lin Chen stood with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance, his face somewhat solemn.

Just now, he rushed here immediately after sensing the breath of Queen Yunzhi.

Although Queen Yunzhi did not say it, Lin Chen knew that the cold poison in her body must be suppressed by the Fire Lotus Pill.

Lin Chen did not know what the Fire Lotus Pill was, so he did not hold much hope. Unexpectedly, this Fire Lotus Pill was actually a seventh-grade spiritual pill!

"As expected of the most famous alchemy sect on the continent, such a Fire Lotus Pill is worth hundreds of millions of spiritual stones!"

Lin Chen was shocked and immediately looked forward to it.

The function of the Fire Lotus Pill can help martial artists improve their skills. He is now only one step away from the Heavenly Saint Realm. With the help of the Fire Lotus Pill, perhaps he can enter the Heavenly Saint Realm.

Lin Chen sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.

The formula of the Yanyang Holy Scripture emerged in his mind.

"After swallowing the Fire Lotus Pill, practice the Flame Sun Sacred Scripture, absorb the essence of the flame, and refine it into fire-attributed spiritual energy, which can transform your own true energy."

Lin Chen's mind echoed the formula of the Flame Sun Sacred Scripture, and slowly guided the Cang Qiong Ba Canon true energy in his body to operate according to the path of the Flame Sun Sacred Scripture.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

As Lin Chen's skills were running, thunderous sounds rang out in the house, the air seemed to boil, and the room was full of heat.

Strands of light blue true energy drilled out from his pores, swirled around him, and finally all flowed into the blood-red bead on his wrist.

This bead emitted a faint fluorescence, as if it was a burning flame.

Gradually, the light blue true energy became more and more, and the blood-red bead became more and more blazing and dazzling.

The true energy in Lin Chen's body also became more and more, and there was a sharp pain in his dantian, as if it was about to explode.

But he gritted his teeth and held on without stopping.

This process lasted for about an incense stick of time, and finally, Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes.

He stood up, his whole body crackled, his clothes fluttered, and he exhaled a long breath.

"In the six realms of Tiansheng, the fifth realm, the five tribulations of the transformation of the spirit, a breakthrough!"

At this moment, Lin Chen's face was full of joy, and he felt that his body was full of strength.

His physical strength has exceeded 30,000 pounds.

Although it is still far behind the strong men in the transformation of the spirit, he is still very excited.

He can now completely rely on his physical strength to hit the peak of Guixu, and even kill the existence of the peak of Guixu.

"Hahaha..."

Thinking of the black-clothed man at the peak of Guixu who he met before, who was killed by him in a few moves, Lin Chen couldn't help laughing wildly.

His mind moved, and a surge of true energy surged from his dantian and injected into his right arm.

He threw a punch.

Bang!

The air made a loud noise, and a red fist print, with destructive power, blasted towards a wall not far away.

Crack, crack—

The wall shattered instantly.

This punch actually turned the tough steel into powder, which shows the power of this punch.

"With a body of five tribulations of transformation, plus the flame holy armor, my current combat power is definitely comparable to that of ordinary people in the seventh or eighth level of the free and easy realm!"

Lin Chen's mouth was wide open, and he was very excited. Now he is completely standing on the top of this world.

He looked out the window and saw the stars.

"I don't know if this star field also has a powerful force like Yunmeng Tianwang Mansion."

Lin Chen muttered to himself, and then shook his head. He knew that he was thinking too much. The most important thing to do now should be to find Yunmeng Tianwangfei as soon as possible and save her parents!

Lin Chen was a little worried.

According to Yun Zhi, there has been no news of his parents since they were captured.

The power of Yunmeng Tianwang Mansion is huge. If the other party wants to hide two people, it will be difficult to find them!

He was anxious, tapped his toes lightly, and his figure swept out like the wind.

Swish!

He was very fast, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a trace of afterimage.

Half an hour later, he slowed down and frowned at a shop on the corner.

It was a shop selling clothes and jewelry. The name was also very cliché, called "Tianbao Pavilion". It was one of the famous shops in the imperial capital, specializing in selling clothes, jewelry and other accessories.

However, in a place like the imperial capital where there are all kinds of people, even an ordinary shop, the things inside may not be cheap, because the people living here are basically warriors, who are not short of money, and they buy things to spend money.

At this time, a long queue formed at the entrance of Tianbao Pavilion. Lin Chen squeezed into the queue and asked, "Excuse me, has anyone here lost a silver-white robe?"

Lin Chen's words stunned everyone.

"Did you lose a robe?"

A young man wearing brocade clothes and a gold and jade belt around his waist, who looked very noble, glanced at Lin Chen doubtfully, "Brother, my Tianbao Pavilion is the best trading firm in the imperial capital, and our shopkeeper is How can a master of the Four Heavenly Tribulations lose something?"

After hearing this, Lin Chen frowned.

Yunzhi had described to him that his parents were abducted in silver-white robes. Since the shopkeeper of Tianbao Pavilion was a powerful person in the Four Tribulations of the Heavenly Sage, it should not be him.

He asked again: "Are you sure that the shopkeeper of Tianbao Pavilion hasn't lost anything? I mean, some guests have come here to buy things. Is there anything left behind?"

"My friend, are you questioning our Tianbao Pavilion?"

The man's tone was a little unhappy, "If our Tianbao Pavilion loses something, will we continue to operate?"

"Sorry, I was reckless."

Lin Chen quickly explained.

It wasn't that he thought Tianbao Pavilion would steal other people's things this time, but he just sensed that the blood in his body was glowing with a red glow.

Not long ago, Yunzhi told Lin Chen that his father and mother were imprisoned in the Tianwang City's Tianlao, and the Tianlao was under the jurisdiction of Tianwang City.

Perhaps, it is not certain that traces of parents can be found in Tianbao Pavilion!

Thinking about this, Lin Chen asked again: "Sorry, I am a casual cultivator and don't know much about the situation in the imperial capital, so I take the liberty of disturbing you."

While speaking, he took out a spirit stone and handed it to the young man in brocade clothes.

"Hmph!" The young man in brocade clothes did not reach out to take it, but snorted coldly and said sarcastically: "You think you can bribe me with just a piece of spiritual stone? You look down on me too much!"

Lin Chen frowned, but soon understood that this man was obviously jealous that she was handsomer than him.

However, Lin Chen didn't bother to pay attention to this kind of stuff.

"You misunderstood, I really need help!" Lin Chen said.

"oh?"

At this time, the young man in Jinyi became somewhat interested, but he still said calmly, "If you have any questions, just tell me directly. Since you are so sincere in asking for advice, I might as well give you some guidance."

This guy looked like he was showing mercy, and Lin Chen said impatiently: "Hurry up, I have something urgent to do!"

He didn't want to waste time.

"good!"

When the young man in Jinyi saw this, he was not angry at all and said: "If you want to obtain information, you must first figure out what you want to get."

Lin Chen frowned and said, "Stop talking nonsense and tell me the information quickly!"

"Okay, I'll tell you."

The young man in golden clothes raised his head slightly and said: "The person you are looking for is in the Heavenly King's Mansion. And in the Heavenly King's Mansion, the royal members of the Great Qin Dynasty live there. As for why, you understand."

"Furthermore, according to rumors, there is such a terrifying existence as the 'Heavenly King' in the Heavenly King's Mansion! Although the 'Heavenly King' has not yet broken through to the Nine Tribulations of Sainthood, he is an unparalleled ferocious beast who once broke into the Heavenly Demon Forest alone! You Do you think you can go head-to-head on your own?"

When talking about it later, the man's face was full of contempt, "I advise you not to destroy yourself!"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes, glanced at the young man in brocade clothes, and said indifferently: "No one in this world dares to block my way. Anyone who blocks me will die!"

The young man in golden clothes sneered: "You are quite arrogant. No wonder you are being hunted down! Haha, but who do you think you are? It's just the strength of the Three Tribulations of the Heavenly Saint!"

"You are the fifth calamity of the heavenly saint, and I am the second calamity of the heavenly saint." Lin Chen said calmly, thinking that you, a piece of rubbish from the fifth calamity of the heavenly saint, are here to show off.

The young man in brocade sneered: "So what, I am the Heavenly Saint for the fifth calamity, and you are only the Heavenly Saint for the second calamity!"

"That's because you are too weak!" Lin Chen said without mercy.

"You! Okay, great! I remember you!"

The young man in brocade clothes was extremely angry. He glared at Lin Chen fiercely and turned to leave. Before leaving, he threatened fiercely, "When I find out who is responsible for this, I will let you know what the consequences will be if you offend our Prince Yun Mansion!"

Lin Chen didn't take it to heart at all. In his opinion, the other party's threats were as insignificant as farts.

"Ouch, my ears!"

Suddenly, there was a sharp and piercing scream nearby, but it was the shop owner who just covered his ears and howled, looking like he was in extreme pain.

"What's wrong with you? I just reminded you not to make any noise, but you still want to shout out here!" The young man in brocade looked at Lin Chen and scolded him in a condescending manner.

Lin Chen glanced at him and ignored him.

"you--"

The young man in brocade clothes was furious, but he finally endured it and shouted coldly: "You're lucky, I won't argue with you today! Humph!"

After saying that, he left angrily, looking like he had eaten a fly.

There is no other reason. Lin Chen's rebuttal just now directly exposed him as a bully who fears the strong.

As soon as the young man in brocade left, Lin Chen continued walking towards Tianxiang Tower.

"Hey, what are you going to do?" A waiter was startled when he saw Lin Chen walking in, and immediately ran over to stop Lin Chen.

The waiters in these shops are basically warriors or alchemists, and their cultivation levels are generally above the Guixu realm.

They generally don't entertain guests.

Lin Chen said: "Excuse me, where is Yun Shang now?"

"Our young lady..."

Hearing the name Yun Shang, the waiter's eyes twitched, and then he said quickly, "Are you young lady's friend? Go find her, she is in trouble now! She was taken to the hall of the Ministry of Justice and has not come out yet. She is probably going to be executed!"

"Thank you!"

Lin Chen nodded to the waiter, and then hurriedly walked towards the door of the Ministry of Justice.

"Alas! Why don't you listen to me? That's the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Entering it is a dead end!"

The waiter sighed, and then muttered: "He doesn't know what's good for him. Young lady is so good to him, but he doesn't appreciate it!"

………

At the door of the Ministry of Justice.

Many people gathered around, and there were huge crowds of people.

Among them were many officers and soldiers, who were maintaining order and keeping everyone away from here.

Zhao Dehai, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, also stood in front of the crowd, his face was ashen, and he was obviously in a very bad mood.

He didn't expect that Yunchang would steal the secret medicine of the palace, and was discovered and arrested for interrogation in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. This was simply a naked provocation to the Great Zhou Empire.

If this matter is not handled properly, not only will Yunchang be punished, but even the entire Great Zhou Empire will lose face!

He was so angry that he wanted to send someone to arrest Yunchang right now, but the emperor summoned him at this time and asked him to deal with the matter personally!

"Minister Zhao!"

At this time, a thin and wretched middle-aged man ran over quickly.

Seeing the middle-aged man, Zhao Dehai hurried over and smiled: "Lord Li, are you here too? I wonder if you have a way to solve this matter so as not to be criticized!"

As Zhao Dehai said this, a trace of disgust flashed in the depths of his eyes. Lord Li was just a person who relied on nepotism to climb to the position of the Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

In his eyes, he was just a lowly villain!

"Hey! Minister Zhao, don't worry, I'll take care of this matter, I'll give you an explanation!" The middle-aged man vowed.

He thought, if I could help you solve it, I would have put this maid to bed by myself, why would I need to wait for you!

He stepped forward and said to the officers and soldiers who were escorting Yun Shang: "Everyone, since the matter is clear, then let her go quickly! I'm from the Ministry of Justice, I'll take people back to judge!"

Several officers and soldiers hesitated, and one of them said: "This Yun Shang has committed a heinous crime and must be severely punished! But now His Majesty the Emperor has summoned you, Minister Zhao, to the palace to discuss politics, you can't leave your post without permission! I suggest that you follow us to the prison of the Ministry of Justice!"

Another person also said: "This Yun Shang is indeed daring, and she is also a foxy embryo. Not only did she seduce His Majesty, but now she even dared to steal the elixir. She deserves to die, and she must be executed!"

Zhao Dehai's face was extremely ugly when he heard this, and he thought it was really unlucky!

He also knew that if he didn't cooperate, these guys would definitely dare to chop Yunshang!

He looked at the middle-aged man coldly and asked, "Lord Li, let me ask you, are you sure Yunshang stole the elixir?"

This man was Li Mingyu, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Li Mingyu snorted coldly, "If I say no, then no, can I, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, frame a weak woman like her?"

As Li Mingyu spoke, he took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Lin Chen, saying, "See, this is what Yunshang took out of the storage bag. She must have stuffed it into her sleeve when I wasn't paying attention!"

Li Mingyu's jade pendant was dark green, looked simple and heavy, and was engraved with patterns. It looked very delicate and gorgeous. It was a jade pendant of the top-grade spiritual weapon level.

"Yun Shang's jade pendant?"

Lin Chen looked at the jade pendant, frowned slightly, and felt that the jade pendant was very familiar. After a moment, a face appeared in his mind, and he was surprised: "It's her jade pendant?"

Li Mingyu looked at the shock on Lin Chen's face and sneered: "Boy, do you know who this jade pendant belongs to? Now you should believe what I said, right?"

"You are talking nonsense! I don't have it! You framed me with this thing!" Yun Shang gritted her teeth and looked at Li Mingyu, extremely angry.
