Chapter 45
An hour later, Xia Ming appeared outside the mountain pass.

In addition to his own mount, the Dragon-Blooded Pegasus, there are also twenty guards. These people are all carefully selected. Their cultivation is not very high. They are only in the blood-moving realm. As for the armor.

It's not foot armor, just ordinary iron armor.

After taking a look at the people who came out to see him off, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go, I'll leave Huangcheng to you all!"

Then, he rode out on his war horse and led the people towards the imperial city. Along the way, Xia Ming saw that the entire Xia Dynasty was completely deserted.

However, what worried him even more was the people, who were rebuilding their homes among the ruins.

They are all skinny, but there is still hope in their eyes, just because it is peaceful now and there is no war.

But Xia Ming knew that this short-term peace might not last long.

Perhaps, within a short period of time, it will completely dissipate.

Moreover, the troubled times will be more violent and crazy than before.

But now there is nothing he can do. Although Huangcheng has some strength, he is still far behind compared with those people from the sect who come and go.

You can only try your best to protect some people you care about.

Nothing happened along the way. Half a month later, he finally came to the imperial city again.

This huge city is entirely made of bluestone, and is covered with traces of cuts and axes.

The defenders on the city wall were wearing white clothes and armor.

Xia Ming swaggered towards the city.

Early on, some guards showed their royal palace badges.

Therefore, naturally no one stopped him. Instead, the guard knelt on one knee and watched Xia Ming leave.

"Your Majesty, where are we going?"

The guard on the side asked carefully.

"Go to the palace!" Xia Ming said calmly as he looked at the towering palaces in the center of the city.

Chu Qinghuan may be in a very difficult situation now.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The guards around him opened the way ahead.

Went straight to the outside of the palace.

At this time, a chamberlain stood outside the palace gate, seemingly waiting for someone. When he saw Xia Ming, he walked up with a sad face.

"This slave has met King Huang, and His Highness asked me to come here to wait for you!"

As he spoke, Xia Ming was not surprised as he led the way in front of him.

Chu Qinghuan was about to ascend the throne. It would be unreasonable for her not to know about the arrival of a dignified king.

When I first entered the palace, I saw someone walking towards me.

This is a middle-aged woman, wearing a moon-white robe, with a beautiful face and plump body. However, she seems unhappy at this time, giving people a feeling of being thousands of miles away.

Behind her were three people, also wearing moon-white brocade robes, with well-proportioned figures and a flash of light in their eyes.

You can tell he is a master just by looking at him.

The leading woman, whom Xia Ming had seen before, had not changed much now, was Chu Qinghuan's master Wang Mingyue.

"Who is he!" The other party stared at Xia Ming and said lightly.

Chu Qinghuan had not seen foreign ministers for several days because of his father's death, and now someone suddenly arrived.

And he was introduced directly into the palace.

The identity must be different.

Obviously, Wang Mingyue had forgotten Xia Ming's appearance because he had been gone for too long and she didn't pay much attention to him back then.

The chamberlain quickly lowered his eyebrows and said, "Reporting to the Imperial Master, King Huang has just returned to the imperial city and has come to greet His Majesty!"

"I've met senior!" Xia Ming said hello.

After all, he is Chu Qinghuan's elder.

"Huh!" Wang Mingyue just snorted coldly, and then led his apprentice towards the outside of the palace.

As for Chu Qinghuan's three junior brothers, they cast unkind glances at Xia Ming.

Obviously, the other party became a king, which made the four masters and disciples very unhappy.

Xia Ming smiled and shook his head, not caring at all.

He followed the chamberlain directly into the newly built Chaotian Palace, where Chu Qinghuan was sitting above in a white robe.

She seemed very tired.

He was leaning on his arms and dozing off.

After hearing the movement outside, he opened his red eyes.

"You're here, sit down and talk!" Chu Qinghuan looked at Xia Ming and said, while waving to the waiter.

Signal the other person to go out.

Then, he walked down the steps and came to Xia Ming's side and continued, "You shouldn't have come. Today's imperial city is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. Many people want to cut my flesh off, even the people who were closest to me. Tomorrow Go back early in the morning!"

"No wonder you didn't let someone inform me that Uncle Chu passed away. I couldn't see him off for the last time!" murderous intent.

When we first met at the border of Yunzhou, the other party was still so bright and charming, but within a month, he had become so haggard.

Okay, everyone wants to bully their sister Qinghuan, but he wants to see if these people really have that ability.

"I saw your master. She just came to see you?" Xia Ming continued to lower his head.

"You don't need to worry about this. I will handle it myself. I will have someone take you back later. Have a good night's rest and return to Huangcheng tomorrow!"

"I won't reply!" Xia Ming said slowly, looking up at Chu Qinghuan.

Obviously, he used this method to express his attitude.

Helplessness appeared on the latter's face, he shook his head and said, "If you don't reply, then you won't. Why are you still acting like you were a kid?"

There was nothing she could do about Xia Ming.

However, while the two were chatting, the chamberlain hurriedly walked in.

"Your Highness, what's wrong, the Imperial Master has left the imperial city with the three princes. He said that there is something wrong with the sect and he will go back soon!"

The voice sounded, and his face turned pale.Everyone knows that it is because of the presence of Master Chu Qinghuan.

That's why the people from various forces hiding in the dark didn't show up. If the other party left, these people might be able to jump out tonight.

Chu Qinghuan pursed her lips stubbornly. She knew that all this was caused by her refusal to confer the title of Wangjue on her three junior brothers. The master must make her bow her head.

It's not that the kings can't be conferred. She originally persuaded her father to give the three kings the title, but Marquis Linjiang refused to agree. It seemed that he had already seen the thoughts of the people in the sect.

But who would have thought that just after such a big thing happened in his family, the master would mention it again and ask for the land of Sanzhou as the fiefdom of the three junior brothers.

How is this possible? If it is really sent, will Daxia still be Daxia?

Therefore, when the master left, she was sure that there were no strong people gathered in the Linjiang Marquis Mansion and could not deter all forces, so that was why she did so.

"I have something to do and I can't accompany you anymore. I'll go back to my mansion immediately. Remember not to come out at night!" Chu Qinghuan looked at Xia Ming and said with a serious expression.

She knew in her heart that something was going to happen tonight.

This time, Xia Ming did not refuse and nodded.

He left under the escort of the chamberlain.

When Chu Qinghuan was the only one left in the hall, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone's goal tonight is themselves. As long as Xia Ming doesn't come out, he may be able to escape. At the same time, tears fell in his eyes.

The master who had trained him for many years actually turned against him for the sake of profit.

The person who loved him so much back then has now become so terrifying.

We have already dedicated the land of a state, why can’t we feed them?

Her heart was gradually getting colder and hardening.

On the other side, after Xia Ming returned to his palace with his guards, he walked straight into the courtyard. When the guard at the door saw him, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He knelt on one knee and said, "Welcome the prince to return!"

As soon as Xia Ming waved his hand to signal them to level up, someone was already running towards the yard in a hurry.

He shouted, "The prince is back, the prince is back!"

Everyone in the mansion was alarmed and came out to greet him.

A moment later, when Xia Ming entered the backyard.

Then he saw a girl, with everyone in the palace, standing in front waiting for him.

"Congratulations to welcome the prince back!"

Everyone spoke together.

He saluted Xia Ming with excitement in his eyes.

"Everyone is rewarded with ten taels of silver, so let's scatter them all!"

Xia Ming said with a smile, and all the servants cheered, and then they dispersed obediently.

Only one person was still standing, and it was the girl who was leading the group. She was wearing a warm-colored dress and was 1.6 meters tall. According to her age, she was considered tall.

Although it is still a little immature, it has already shown the flavor of causing harm to the country and the people.

Of course it is Xia Ming's adopted sister, Xia Chan.

"Chan'er, don't you recognize my brother?" Xia Ming said with a smile, stepping forward to take Xia Chan to reminisce about the past.

When I was little, the other person was very clingy to me, when he left.

I can't forget that Xia Chan burst into tears.

"Natural understanding!" Xia Chan whispered softly.

Then, he let Xia Ming pull him into the hall.

At this time, a strange light appeared in the other party's eyes, and he began to look at this sister.

[Name: Xia Chan]

[Favorability: 90 (very complicated feelings towards the host, including gratitude, family affection, and a little like)]

[Skill: Saint-level low-grade skill "Red Dust Heart Refining Technique"]

【Cultivation: Innate Peak】

[Fate: Unknown (the host level is too low and cannot be obtained)]

[Talent: Unknown (the host level is too low and cannot be obtained)]

Looking at this data, Xia Ming was surprised.

How could the opponent's cultivation techniques be so advanced? Saint-level techniques are beyond the existence of heaven-level techniques. It is said that only some saint-level disciples have the opportunity to practice.

And what's even more frightening is that with his strength, he can't even see Xia Chan's talent.

Is this what happened?

Then, he tried to open the data panel again to see if the system had given rewards.

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the Golden Fate Subordinate, and will be rewarded with a Realm Breaking Pill, which can allow the host to break through a large realm without any obstacles (because the attributes of the person observed by the host are too high, and it is temporarily unable to detect all the information, the reward will be reduction)]

Although Xia Ming didn't know what happened to Xia Chan, he was very satisfied.

Then, he stared at his sister, hesitating to speak. He had a lot to say just now, but now he found that he didn't know what to say.

After a moment, he said, "Cicada, after traveling for several days, brother is a little tired. Is it okay to chat with you tomorrow?"

"Brother, please take a rest. Chan'er will come back tomorrow!" Xia Chan nodded and left, with a sense of maturity that was inconsistent with her age.

Xia Ming was a little surprised.

However, there is no need to think too much now. It is already noon, and in the evening, something big will happen to the palace.

It's better to improve your cultivation first.

Then, he turned his palm, and the pill rewarded by the system appeared in his palm.

Without hesitation, Xia Ming swallowed it directly.

Once he breaks through to the second realm of Juding, he should be able to be much more relaxed when facing off against masters from all sides.
