When Lin Bai walked out of the courtyard, he had already changed his appearance. His white clothes turned into black robes, his hair was shawl-length, and his facial features were shadowy.
The aura on his body was deliberately concealed, so even people who were familiar with Lin Bai such as Bai Yifei and Qiao Mo might not be able to recognize Lin Bai's traces.
Lin Bai hid his breath and walked on the streets of the imperial capital.
At noon at this time, Master and the Imperial City are the busiest. There are many restaurants in the streets and alleys, and the crowds of people are crowded.
The sound of hawking can be heard all the time, and the street teahouses and wine shops are also filled with warriors.
The most violent incident inside and outside the imperial capital in the past few days was the killing of warriors from the Northern Territory in the Divine Weapon Tower.
When Lin Bai was walking on the street, he would hear such discussions all the time.
"I really didn't expect that the disciples of the Flying Sword Demon Sect were just suppressed by Lord Lang under the water pool."
"They haven't been rescued yet."
"As a result, the warriors from the Northern Territory made such a big fuss in the Divine Weapon Tower again. The three major sects, Chen Family, Tianshui Sect, and Tianxian Sect, were successively defeated by the warriors from the Northern Territory!"
"..."
What? The disciples of the Flying Sword Demon Sect are still under the pool? They haven't been rescued yet?... Lin Bai was a little shocked when he heard the news.
Luo Yu from the Flying Sword Demon Sect made trouble in Lutai Palace, and Lin Bai used the flying sword to suppress him under the pool.
After so many days, Lin Bai thought that the disciples of Feijian Demon Sect had already rescued him.
After all, although Lin Bai's flying sword suppression technique is not weak, as long as Luo Qiu, the holy son of the Flying Sword Demon Sect, is willing to take action, Luo Yu can still be rescued easily.
But Lin Bai never expected that... Luo Qiu of the Flying Sword Demon Sect seemed to be unaware of this matter and had no intention of saving Luo Yu.
Lin Bai thought about it carefully... That's right, his flying sword hasn't come back yet, Luo Yu is probably still soaking in the water.
"Are this year's Northern Territory warriors so powerful? The three major sects among the five Chu sects and seven sects are actually no match for the Northern Territory warriors?"
"The master disciples of the Tianshui Sect, the masters of the Tianxian Sect, and the masters of the Chen family were all defeated by the warriors of the Northern Territory."
"Humph, it seems that we have overestimated the capabilities of the Five Families and Seven Sects. The Five Families and Seven Sects are getting worse every year. I think in a few years, the Five Families and Seven Sects will have to replace themselves."
"..."
"I think it's not that the disciples of the five and seven sects of the Chu Kingdom are too weak, but that the warriors from the Northern Territory are too strong."
"Those Northern Barbarians from the Northern Territory are born to be brave and warlike. There are very few people who can rival them in the Demon Realm."
"..."
"Yes, I saw a warrior from the Northern Territory some time ago. Oh my God, he is more than two meters tall, and his muscles are exposed all over his body. He is really scary."
"If there really is a war between the Northern Territory and the Eastern Territory, I don't think the Eastern Territory can withstand the Northern Territory's move."
Lin Bai walked on the street and smiled bitterly in his heart... Sure enough, some people in the imperial capital had already begun to speak ill of the five families and seven sects.
Some people began to spread the word about the power of the warriors from the Northern Territory, while at the same time they began to spread the word about the incompetence of the warriors from the Eastern Territory.
Public opinion on the matter seems to be developing in the direction that Beiyu wants.
"It won't be long before this matter will spread throughout the territory of Chu State."
"If someone can arrange it, it will probably spread to the frontier soon, to the ears of the soldiers on the frontier, and also to the ears of the warriors in the northern region."
Lin Bai took a deep breath, "But there is no need to worry, since His Majesty Emperor Chu has given an order to keep the Holy Son from ending."
"Then Emperor Chu must have also sent news to the border area, so that the border area can be prepared."
"But we can't let the Northern Territory warriors continue to act like this, otherwise, there will definitely be chaos!"
Lin Bai walked among the endless crowds in the imperial capital, meditating as he walked.
Before I knew it, the sun was setting and it was already night.
The bright moon hangs in the sky, like a jade plate, and the clear light it emits is charming and dazzling.
After Lin Bai disguised himself, he unknowingly walked outside the Chen family's residence.
The Chen family is worthy of being the first among the seven sects of the Five Families of Chu State and one of the five major families in the imperial capital. The grandeur of the family is no less than that of the imperial palace.
But Lin Bai did not stay in front of the Chen family's house. Instead, he turned around and walked into a dark alley near the Chen family's house.
In the dark alley, Lin Bai leaned against the wall, holding chestnuts bought from the market in his hand. While eating, he looked towards the entrance of the alley, as if he was waiting for someone?
Suddenly, a cold voice sounded in Lin Bai's ear, "Chestnuts from Zhengdefang?"
"Chestnuts, you still have to eat chestnuts from Beichengyuan, they are truly delicious."
Hearing the voice ringing next to his ears, Lin Bai knew who it was without even turning around.
"I've been in the imperial capital for so long, and you still don't want to take me to try it?" Lin Bai turned around with a smile and looked at the person behind him.
It is Chen Yule.
"Master Lang Hou is so busy, how can he have time to eat chestnuts?" Chen Yule smiled, then noticed Lin Bai's dress, and suddenly frowned, "You have become like this?"
"I remember that you don't seem to like wearing black clothes? Why did you change your temper today?"
"Even the face has changed?"
"If you hadn't deliberately exposed your breath in order to wait for me, I probably wouldn't have discovered you."
Lin Bai looked at the black clothes on his body and said, "Wearing black clothes is mainly for the convenience of doing things that are not easily discovered by outsiders."
"I changed my appearance because I didn't want to be discovered by outsiders."
Chen Yule frowned immediately, "What do you want to do?"
Lin Bai asked with a smile: "Do you want to avenge the warriors of your Chen family?"
"Should we suppress the arrogance of the Northern Territory warriors?"
"That's what I wanted to do, of course." Chen Yule said seriously, "But...His Majesty the Emperor of Chu has issued an edict that the Holy Son must not end."
After Chen Yule finished speaking, he frowned and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Lin Bai smiled and threw a mask from his storage bag, "If you want to avenge the warriors of the Chen family and suppress the arrogance of the warriors of the Northern Territory, then put on a mask and follow me."
After saying that, Lin Baitou didn't know how to walk out of the dark alley.
Chen Yule lowered his head and looked at the mask in his hand. It was made of gold and engraved with a blooming... rose?
Chen Yule frowned deeply, "Why does it look like a mask worn by a woman?"
"Can't you be more serious when it comes to masks? Just be a mask that a man should wear?"
Chen Yule complained in his mouth, but his hands were honest. He put the golden mask on his face, immediately calmed down his aura, put on a black robe, and followed Lin Bai out of the alleyway.
The birthday of Emperor Chu was approaching, and there were more and more people in the imperial capital wearing strange clothes. Chen Yule walked in the market wearing a gold mask, but he did not attract much attention.
"Haha, listen to what suits you." Lin Bai felt Chen Yule walking out and looked back. The gold rose mask fit Chen Yule perfectly. The mask made of gold has a strong sense of solemnity and mystery.
, coupled with Chen Yule’s unique unruly temperament, his whole body was filled with
A strong air of chilling and majesty.
And because the golden mask is engraved with a soft rose pattern, the mask has a unique feminine beauty. In this way, this golden rose mask is worn on Chen Yule's face, revealing a sense of solemnity, mystery, distortion, heaviness, etc.
A variety of twisted and intertwined feelings make Chen Yule even more confusing and unpredictable.
