, the fastest update to The Shocking Sword Emperor!
After the end of the Nantian Hunting Garden, the power structure of the imperial capital began to change subtly.
Ancestor Pan Qing stayed up all night, using secret methods to contact the sect master and the ancestors in the sect to discuss countermeasures.
At dawn the next day, ancestor Pan Qing got up and entered the palace to meet Emperor Chu. He wanted to find out what Emperor Chu meant first.
Did he really intend to grant a marriage to Lin Bai and Miss Shen Xian...or did he just not want Lin Bai to fall into the hands of the Third Prince and Prince Liang's Mansion.
Lin Bai and his ancestor Pan Qing left the palace, Pan Qing entered the palace, and Lin Bai went straight to Tianji Pavilion.
Today he is going to visit Mr. Wuchuan to see if he can ask the chief weapon refiner of Tianji Pavilion to repair the Underworld Demon Bones for him.
Arriving at Tianji Pavilion, it didn't take much effort to meet Wu Chuanweng's eldest disciple "Meng Ye".
Tianji Pavilion specially prepared a room for Meng Ye, and Meng Ye played with all kinds of strange things in it.
When Lin Bai walked in under the guidance of the maid, Meng Ye was staring attentively at a piece of jade in his hand.
Just by glancing at it, Lin Bai felt the aura of the ultimate Taoist weapon of the owner of this jade, tending to defend the inner treasure.
"Brother Meng." Lin Bai entered with a smile, cupped his hands and made a salute.
Meng Ye raised his head and saw Lin Bai, with a smile on his face, "It turns out to be Lord Wolf. He just returned from hunting. Why don't Lord Wolf take a good rest?"
"I heard that Lord Lang Hou displayed his power in the Nantian Hunting Garden. He not only slaughtered the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect, but also made the saints from outside the territory run away with their heads covered."
"Emperor Chu must be very happy."
Lin Bai smiled and didn't answer much.
Although Kirikawa Ong returned to the imperial capital, he did not participate in the hunting at the Nantian Hunting Garden.
Instead, he made an excuse, saying that he was unable to leave the border at the critical moment of refining a certain treasure, and declined Emperor Chu politely.
Obviously, Wu Chuanweng was still a little dissatisfied with returning to the imperial capital, and he was still worried about Emperor Chu, but he could not speak out.
After some pleasantries, Meng Ye smiled and said: "Brother Lin, after returning from Nantian Hunting Garden, you can't wait to come to Tianji Pavilion. You must be trying to refine some treasure, right?"
Lin Bai didn't say any more nonsense, "That's true. I wonder if Brother Meng could ask Senior Wu Chuanweng to tell me that junior Lin Bai is here to visit."
Meng Ye rubbed his eyebrows and said helplessly: "Hey, now that my master hears your name, he keeps shaking his head. I don't know if he wants to see you again."
Lin Bai knew that Wu Chuanweng did not want to get involved in the troubled waters of the Imperial Capital, but Emperor Chu suddenly summoned him to the Imperial Capital with a secret order, and he guessed what happened.
As expected, not long after returning, Lin Bai paid a visit and asked straight to the point about the causes of death of the eldest prince and the second prince.
Wuchuan Weng then guessed that Lin Bai must be the reason why he was recalled to the imperial capital by Emperor Chu.
Therefore, he was somewhat unfavorable to Lin Bai.
"Brother Meng, please report."
Although Mr. Kirigawa didn't want to see him, Lin Bai still wanted to see him. After all, the matter of repairing the Underworld Demonic Bones could only be left to Mr. Kirikawa so that Lin Bai could rest assured.
Meng Ye didn't say much and asked Lin Bai to wait a moment while he used a secret method to transmit his voice into the yellow-skinned gourd.
Not long after, Meng Ye calmly smiled and said, "Master has promised to see you, go in."
Immediately, Meng Ye opened the stopper of the yellow-skinned gourd, which was filled with gray-white mist. A weak suction force fell on Lin Bai, pulling him into the gourd world.
This is a cave-heaven magic weapon, and the place where Senior Wu Chuanweng practiced was inside the gourd.
Gourd, the sky is gray, a clear pool has rippling blue waves, a light mist floats on the water, and there are several small wooden houses sitting on the shore.
As soon as he fell into the gourd world, Lin Bai heard the sound of "dang-dang-dang" hammering.
Lin Bai stood by the lake with a smile and a calm expression, and did not approach the wooden houses.
About a moment later, the sound of hammering slowly stopped, and Kirikawa Ou, who had an unusual figure and well-defined muscles all over his body, came out.
His white hair was neatly combed, his chin beard was braided, his face was gloomy, and he looked at Lin Bai with round eyes.
"I've already told you everything I can tell you. Why are you still looking for me?"
"Did you find out something?"
When Kirikawa opened his mouth, his tone was particularly unkind, almost an angry one.
Lin Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No, since the orphan of the Twelve Princes was released, the Third Prince has been unusually peaceful." "Humph." Wu Chuanweng sneered twice, "The Third Prince is smarter than you think. He
He is an old fox, and there are so many secretaries in the Riyue Pavilion giving him advice. He naturally understands that the wiser thing is to keep a low profile and bide his time.
A smart move.”
"After all... his foundation within the dynasty is now solid. Even if he temporarily loses some of Emperor Chu's favor, his foundation will not be shaken!"
The Sun and Moon Pavilion was the place where the third prince raised strong men. Lin Bai had also dealt with several strong men in the Sun and Moon Pavilion.
After all, we are talking about the "Twelve Sword Slaves" and the mysterious warrior from the Worm Valley in southern Xinjiang who possesses the "Tribulation of Gods and Demons".
Just as Mr. Kirikawa said...the third prince has a solid foundation in the imperial capital and the dynasty, and he almost responds to everything inside and outside the court.
Although His Highness King Chen said that after returning to the imperial capital, he would get wind and rain, but in fact, he was relying on Emperor Chu's grace.
Without the Emperor of Chu, His Highness King Chen would not receive any support in the court.
Therefore, even if the third prince temporarily loses some favors from Emperor Chu, it will not hurt him. This will not shake his foundation.
"So if you want to take down the third prince, you must start with the causes of death of the eldest prince and the second prince..."
Lin Bai smiled continuously and continued: "His Majesty the Emperor of Chu is obviously partial to His Royal Highness King Chen. Otherwise, he would not have secretly summoned you, an old minister, to return to the imperial capital."
Wu Chuanweng's expression condensed, he puffed out his cheeks and took a deep breath, staring at Lin Bai like a hawk with his eyes.
He was silent for a while and sighed: "If His Highness Prince Chen had you as his assistant a thousand years ago, the Third Prince would not have dared to be so arrogant."
"Since you haven't found anything, you should continue to investigate. Why are you looking for me?"
"I have nothing more to tell you."
"Now I just want to work quietly and stare at Emperor Chu before he bids farewell and returns to his hometown after his birthday."
It seems that Mr. Kirikawa is really tired of the intrigues and treacherous situations in the imperial capital. He really just wants to spend his old age in peace.
Hearing Wu Chuanweng's words, Lin Bai felt a little guilty. If he hadn't insisted on investigating the death of the eldest prince and the second prince, Wu Chuanweng, who had already spent his old age peacefully, would not have been summoned by Emperor Chu's secret order to return to the imperial capital.
But these guilts could only be temporarily suppressed. Lin Bai explained his purpose: "Senior, this junior is here to entrust me to help me repair a Taiyi Divine Weapon!" As he spoke, Lin Bai came from Chu Chu.
The object bag took out the Underworld Demonic Bones and the Underworld Ancient Tree.
