Eternal gate

At night, the imperial capital is even more prosperous than during the day.

There are many figures on the arch bridge, pairs of handsome men and pretty women having a tryst under the moonlight.

Entering the street, there were still crowds of people. Almost every attic and every stall was hung with red lanterns, shining bright red. There were also many shining crystals hanging on the roof of the attic, shining into the darkness. The shouts and shouts reflect the prosperity of the world.

Zhao Yun walked along and saw soldiers patrolling with swords.

This is only on the surface, but there are countless plainclothes guards secretly there.

When he settled down again, he was already in front of a mansion.

The Chu family's mansion is majestic and majestic. There are more than a dozen stone steps in front of the door. There are also huge stone lions on both sides. They are carved from special rocks. The carvings are so lifelike that they are intimidating to look at. Looking at the plaque, it is also... I don't know who wrote the words "Chu Family". They are really brave and vigorous, and the words have a frightening power.

"Stop." As soon as Zhao Yung approached, Bingwei shouted.

"I'm here for a banquet." Zhao Yun smiled.

"Going to the banquet? Are you the only one?" Bingwei's eyes were full of contempt, he didn't know whether to squint or look down.

Zhao Yun was too lazy to talk nonsense and just took the invitation.

Bingwei also took it casually.

After seeing it, this guy swallowed a mouthful of saliva subconsciously.

He was not mistaken, it was the ancestor of the Chu family who personally invited him. This was an unprecedented first time!

"You...are Ji Hen?"

"it's me."

"The little one is blind, disrespectful and disrespectful."

After receiving the name, Bingwei bowed down and held his hands, while wiping a cold sweat on his face.

Ji Hen's name has been spread all over the imperial capital, and he has been listening to it for a day. Unexpectedly, the rightful owner has come, and he was blind to Taishan's collision. If the ancestor knew about this, it would be a big surprise. The palm struck him, and the guards on both sides looked up and down, their eyes filled with awe.

"Can I...can I go in?"

"Can, can, please...please."

Bingwei no longer had a condescending attitude, he smiled and flattered, and personally led the way.

Zhao Yun followed him, looking left and right like a bumpkin.

This journey made him sigh. The Chu family was ridiculously big. There were palaces and pavilions, rockery stone bridges, lakes and springs, exotic flowers and plants... everything. When he came back for the first time, he thought it was an imperial palace. ? He didn't know if he could go out without anyone to guide him, but the secret restriction was absolutely immovable. He didn't know how many formations were carved into it. If he walked through it in one step, the consequences would definitely be great. For someone at his level, 80% of the time he would be able to get out. Not even the dregs were left after being hacked.

There were many servants of the Chu family whom I met on the road, and when they saw Ji Hen, they all looked strange.

Everyone knows that the Chu family has invited many distinguished guests tonight, including many young talents, but I have never seen this one before. He has a popular face, nothing surprising, and it is not easy to find him in a crowd.

"There are so many good things."

When passing by a garden, Zhao Yun's eyes sparkled. There were many exotic flowers and plants, many of which were not found in the outside world. The alchemist would probably be more greedy when he came here. Many of them can be used to make alchemy materials.

Ahead, there is another stone bridge with a pavilion on one side.

In the pavilion, there was a person sitting there who was reading ancient books. It was the middle-aged man in black who sent the invitation yesterday. When he saw Zhao Yun, he stood up from afar and said with a smile, "You are really punctual, little friend."

"It's a great honor to be invited by the Chu family." Zhao Yun smiled.

Bingwei was very sensible and left as soon as he arrived. He didn't forget to wipe his hands with cold sweat after walking a long way.

For the rest of the journey, the middle-aged man in black personally led the way. Ksitigarbha had no airs at his peak.

"Senior, your ancestor has a good temper." Zhao Yun asked in a low voice.

The middle-aged man just smiled and said nothing. He stepped on the stone bridge and led Zhao Yun deeper. The further he walked, the more clouds surrounded him. Deep in the clouds, there was a quiet garden.

Before entering, I heard cheers and laughter.

When they saw Ji Hen, their laughter stopped and they all looked over. They were all young talents, both male and female. They were either young masters of aristocratic families or young ladies of wealthy families. All of them had extraordinary status and could be invited by the Chu family. , none of them are ordinary people, and the tacit understanding is that they don't recognize Zhao Yun. Whose descendant is this? He doesn't look very good!

"Ji Hen?" Chu Wushuang was also there and couldn't help but be stunned.

"We meet again." Zhao Yun laughed dryly.

"Please come inside." Chu Wushuang smiled softly.

"Is he Ji Hen?"

The atmosphere of the whole place suddenly changed. The depressed and doubtful eyes all flickered with light. The first place in the new sect competition and the ruthless man who defeated Chu Wushuang turned out to be this guy!

Zhao Yun stepped in and suddenly felt that he had turned into a monkey.

And these young talents, the monkey watchers, were scanning him up and down.

Look, we have to take a good look and see what kind of breed you are.

This sentence was the meaning in the eyes of the people present, and they really looked at Zhao Yun as a monkey.

"Uncle Qin, father also invited Ji Hen?" Chu Wushuang looked at the middle-aged man in black.

"Not invited..."

"Then he...."

"The ancestor personally invited me." The middle-aged man in black panted heavily and filled in what he didn't finish.

"This..." Chu Wushuang was shocked.

"The ancestor of the Chu family invited him personally?"

Although the middle-aged man spoke softly, everyone present heard it and burst into shock. They were all invited by the head of the Chu family. This man is awesome! It was actually the ancestor of the Chu family who personally invited him, so he was a bit different in rank!

The middle-aged man smiled and quietly retreated.

Chu Wushuang took a deep breath and looked sideways at Zhao Yun.

That guy, where are you enjoying the flowers and plants? Except for Chu Wushuang, he didn't recognize anyone here, so he had to chat with flowers and plants, thinking to himself... Why haven't we started dinner yet? I'll leave after eating.

"I didn't expect grandpa to invite you." Chu Wushuang arrived gracefully.

"I... didn't expect that either." Zhao Yun smiled awkwardly.

Just a few days ago, he and Chu Wushuang were fighting at the battle platform, and tonight he came to Chu's house. I don't know... whether he was invited to eat or to be beaten.

"Where the previous words clashed, I still hope Haihan." Chu Wushuang handed over a glass of wine.

Zhao Yun hurriedly took it and didn't know what to say. He just smiled and secretly thought that Chi Yan's handsome niece is indeed the proud daughter of heaven. After losing a battle, she actually lost her arrogant attitude and actually started eating the fireworks of the world. Obviously she is She was in Nirvana. In the past, she would never have smiled.

In the attic not far away, there were many people standing in front of the fence.

They are all from the Chu family. The ancestor of the Chu family, Chu Cangqiong, the head of the Chu family, Chu Xuanhe, and the red flame handsome girl Chu Lan are all among them. They can clearly see this side.

"The person my sister introduced is really extraordinary." Chu Xuanhe said with a smile.

"I'm satisfied with the son-in-law I chose for you." The handsome woman looked sideways and smiled.

"Except for the unattractive appearance, everything else is good."

"People...should not be judged by their appearance."

Chu Cangqiong smoothed his beard and found the little boy very pleasing to his eyes.

Among his peers, there were not many who dared to throw his granddaughter.

Among his peers, there were very few people who could defeat his granddaughter. The unparalleled genius named Ji Hen had unlimited potential and was worthy of his precious granddaughter, so he was not worthy of his personal invitation.

"Oh my god! Wu Qi is here too." Just as he was saying this, there was a sudden shout of exclamation below.

Zhao Yun also heard it and looked back subconsciously.

Upon entering his eyes, he saw a young man in purple clothes walking in. His physique was majestic, he was at the peak of Xuanyang, there was purple energy wrapped around his body, and there was a small fire cloud lingering above his head. It should be a kind of external appearance of his bloodline, that His eyes were as sharp as those of an eagle, and sometimes they even flashed a red light. He was full of vitality and blood, and he walked with the roar of a dragon. He could be described as majestic and domineering.

"This guy... is very strong." Zhao Yun murmured.

"His name is Wu Qi, the commander-in-chief of the Great Xia Tiger Army...he is his grandfather." Chu Wushuang said, "Now, he is the commander of the seventh battalion of the Imperial Shadow Guard, under the account of the Purple Cloth Marquis."

Zhao Yun couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this.

With such a level of cultivation...how can he be a leader?

"Sister Wushuang...she is getting more and more beautiful." Wu Qi walked in and came straight to her. His laughter was vigorous, not only with the dragon's roar, but also with a strong wind, which was full of force.

"Senior Brother Wu was joking." Chu Wushuang said with a smile.

"Who is this?" Wu Qi glanced at Zhao Yun, but he had never seen this guy before.

"Ji Hen."

"Are you Ji Hen?" Wu Qi's eyes suddenly flashed with light.

He has been hearing this name for a whole day, and he can hear it wherever he goes.

I thought that when I came to the Chu family, I could calm down for a while, but I never thought... I bumped into the real owner.

I heard that you are almost on fire.

Just because he was the real master, his eyes had a hint of ambiguity. He was peering at Zhao Yun. Just like the young talent before, he looked up and down, as if looking at a monkey, with a hint of confusion hidden in his expression. In fact, I can’t imagine how Chu Wushuang, who was in the True Spirit Realm that day, was defeated.

"It's me." Zhao Yun smiled politely.

"They say...you are good at fighting?"

"good."

"How about we compare with each other?" Wu Qi's words were quite playful.

As soon as the word "sparring" came out, all the young talents not far away gathered together.

Just say it! Tonight was more than just a banquet, there was probably a good show to watch. They all knew that Wu Qi was a ruthless character and would not allow others to be better than him, not to mention that Chu Wushuang was still there.

The entire imperial capital knew that this guy was attracted to Chu Wushuang and wanted to take her home as his wife.

Both inside and outside the court, including the royal family and the Tianzong, were very optimistic about them.

The niece of a handsome red flame girl.

A grandson of Marshal Huwei.

It can be said that they are well matched.

Besides, talent and qualifications are equally comparable.

It is most accurate to describe it as a creation made in heaven.

It was still necessary to show off in front of Chu Wushuang and find a place to come back.

"Senior Brother Wu, he is a guest of the Chu family."

Before Zhao Yun could say anything, he heard Chu Wushuang speak in a deep voice.

This has always been a rule of the Chu family. You are not allowed to use force among members of the family, let alone guests.

"Senior Brother Wu, let's wait another day! He was personally invited by Mr. Chu." A young man waved his folding fan and said with a smile. He was trying to persuade Wu Qi to fight, but in fact he was provoking Wu Qi to continue to attack.

Don't tell me, as soon as he said these words, Wu Qi suddenly frowned.

He was invited by Chu Xuanhe, and compared with this one, he was obviously one level behind.

This made him... very uncomfortable. I am the grandson of Marshal Huwei and the commander of the 7th Battalion of the Imperial Shadow Guard. What a noble status I have. Why does this little martial artist named Ji Hen have the right to do it?

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

Qi returns to Qi, but it cannot be expressed.

"It's rare to see the number one in the new sect, and it's rare to see such a lively atmosphere tonight. I'll give you a few tricks... to help everyone enjoy it." Wu Qi smiled, hiding all his unhappiness, but his eyes when he looked at Zhao Yun were full of hostility.

Without waiting for Chu Wushuang to say anything, he jumped out of the garden in one step and landed smoothly on the water of the lake. Then, another word came back: "Ji Hen, come here, you and I will stop."
