While Chen Tian and the two were talking, Xiaoyu also opened the door and walked out, rubbing her eyes, obviously she had just woken up.
Chen Tian stepped forward and picked up Xiaoyu and said, "Let's go, big brother will take you to find something to eat!"
"Okay!" Xiaoyu happily hugged Chen Tian's neck and rested her little head on Chen Tian's shoulder.
Chen Tian held Kan Yue in one hand and Xiaoyu in the other as he walked out of the luxuriously decorated courtyard and walked all the way to the main hall. If he wanted to find food, he had to find Ke Hong first.
When several people came to the main hall, Ke Hong was discussing with Xu Shu who should be taken. Seeing Chen Tian and others coming, Ke Hong hurriedly stepped forward, handed a list to Chen Tian, and said, "Come here.
It's just right, help me see if these people can do it."
Chen Tian took the list handed over by Ke Hong. There were a lot of names written densely on the list, and their specific strengths, including the skills they were good at, and even their personalities were introduced below the names.
Chen Tian counted carefully and found that there were a hundred names on the list. Their strength was generally in the middle stage of the Sword Calling Realm. There were five who entered the late stage of the Sword Calling Stage. There were two who were in the early stage of the Summoning Sword Realm. They were considered to be very powerful.
A strong force.
After briefly scanning it, Chen Tian handed the list back and said, "You know your people, so you can do whatever you want!"
"Okay!" Ke Hong took the list and was about to discuss it with Xu Shu again. He seemed to remember something and turned around and asked, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
As he said that, he glanced at a few people. They couldn't be here to hang out, right?
Kan Yue reacted and said: "We are here to find some food for Xiao Yu'er. General Ke, you go ahead and talk about it later."
As soon as Kan Yue finished speaking, Ke Hong ordered his servants to prepare the meal, and specifically asked to beat more rice. Then he said to Kan Yue and others: "Your Highness Princess, Brother Chen Tian, you guys rest here first, the food will be ready soon.
"
After saying that, he took Xu Shu and left the hall, presumably to select people.
Chen Tian and the others had nothing to do, so they could only sit in the main hall and chat. About half an hour later, a maid slowly walked into the main hall and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, Mr. Chen,
The food is ready, please go to the side hall to eat."
Chen Tian and others followed the maid to the side hall. As soon as they sat down, Ke Hong also walked into the side hall and sat down opposite them. Chen Tian asked: "General Ke, have you selected the people?"
Ke Hong nodded and said: "We have selected, there are a total of one hundred and twenty people, six of them have led Gang to the late stage of the Sword Realm, two have entered the early stage of the Sword Calling Realm, and the others have all led to the middle stage of the Sword Realm."
Chen Tian nodded, Kan Yue said softly: "I'd like to bother General Ke."
Ke Hong quickly shook his head and said: "Your Highness, Princess, you have spoken harshly."
After the meal was finished amidst the laughter of several people, after putting down the bowls and chopsticks, Chen Tian stood up and said: "Now that you are ready, let's go!"
Several people were led by Ke Hong to a martial arts arena. At this time, there were more than 100 people in casual clothes standing in the martial arts arena. They were the 120 carefully selected people. Everyone saw Ke Hong leaving.
Come, they all said in unison: "Welcome to you, General, Your Royal Highness the Princess!"
Ke Hong waved his hands to them and said loudly: "Do you remember everything I told you?"
"Remember, the priority is to rescue General Kan Jie, and no extraneous matters should be allowed." Everyone shouted in unison.
"Okay, let's go!" Ke Hong gave the order, and everyone walked out of the city lord's palace in several groups, then left Zhenguan City and gathered in a dense forest outside the city.
This is also done to avoid alerting others. Otherwise, a large number of people leaving Zhenguancheng in a mighty manner will inevitably attract the attention of others and cause unnecessary trouble.
After everyone left, Chen Tian and the others, as well as Ke Hong and Xu Shu, who were dressed in black robes, also left Zhenguancheng and came to the woods that they had agreed upon in advance, where others were already waiting.
Ke Hong didn't say much, he just said, "Let's go!"
Everyone rushed towards the imperial city in a mighty manner. They did not choose to ride on mounts, but pretended to be ordinary casual cultivators and rushed on. Although this was very slow, it was not easy to be exposed.
After seven days of traveling, everyone finally arrived outside the imperial city. What they saw was a majestic and domineering city wall that stretched for tens of thousands of miles. They could only see it extending into the distance like a giant dragon.
Everyone did not rush to enter the city, but first observed outside the city. The gates of the city were heavily guarded. Everyone who entered the city must be strictly inspected. If anything was wrong, they would be subdued immediately.
Kan Yue couldn't help but frown and said: "The control in the Imperial City is much stricter than before."
Chen Tian nodded and said: "This is normal. There are not enough troops in the imperial city now, so the security must be much tighter."
After several people observed again for half an hour, Chen Tian suggested: "General Ke and I will go in to inquire about the situation. If there are no problems, you can come in again."
Kan Yue immediately said: "I'll go with you!"
Chen Tian shook his head and refused: "Your identity is special and easy to be exposed. Just stay here and wait for our news!"
Then Chen Tian handed Xiaoyu in his arms to Kan Yue and said, "Also, Xiaoyu will be left to you."
Xiaoyu looked at Chen Tian with a look of reluctance, but she also knew the importance of this matter and did not cry. Chen Tian reached out and touched her little head and said: "Please stay with your sister in red for a while first.
, I’ll pick you up later.”
"Okay! I will protect Sister Hong." Xiaoyu said in a sweet voice.
Chen Tian smiled and said: "Xiaoyu is so good, you must protect your sister in red!"
"Yes!" Xiaoyu nodded seriously.
Then Chen Tian looked at Kan Yue and assured: "Don't worry, I'll be fine!"
Kan Yue nodded and said: "I believe you!"
Chen Tian no longer hesitated and said to Ke Hong on the side: "General Ke, let's go!"
Ke Hong just nodded, and then the two of them walked towards the city gate. There were so many people who wanted to enter the city, and they had to go through strict inspections, there was already a long queue outside the city gate.
Chen Tian and his two men, dressed in casual clothes, blended into the crowd and lined up at the back of the long queue. It was not until half an hour later that Chen Tian and his two men arrived at the gate of the city.
These soldiers had never seen Ke Hong, so they naturally did not recognize him, let alone Chen Tian. The two simply sneaked into the city.
The city is very lively, and since it is noon, a wide street is full of people. People are constantly entering and leaving the city.
Chen Tian and the two were wandering around casually among the crowd, but their eyes kept observing the surroundings, but they did not find anything unusual.
Chen Tian got closer to Ke Hong and whispered: "There are not as many guards in this city as in your Zhenguan city. It seems that the imperial city really doesn't have many troops."
Ke Hong was noncommittal and said slowly: "I think those 50,000 imperial guards should all be in the palace, and the level of security should not be lower than before."
Chen Tian nodded in agreement, and the two of them continued to walk around the city, wanting to further confirm their ideas and make sure they were foolproof.
