Chapter 164

"Young Master Luo Tian, the Divine Martial King is about to commit treason. Please come to the capital quickly!" On the other end of the talisman was Princess Gu Ye Yu Ning of the Night Wind Kingdom.

"Oh? I almost forgot about that trash. I'll set off immediately," Luo Tian said.

Things had been too busy these past few days; he really hadn't had time to think about the Divine Martial King.

Gu Ye Yu Ning was speechless for a moment, and after a long while, she continued, "Young Master Luo Tian, there is one thing I must tell you in advance!"

"What is it?" Luo Tian said nonchalantly.

Gu Ye Yu Ning gritted her teeth and said, "I investigated in secret and found that behind the Divine Martial King are the shadows of the Jade Dragon Kingdom and the Cloud Martial Kingdom! The national strength of these two countries is far superior to ours. I suspect that this time, they have even sent Return to Ruins Realm experts! So, if you refuse to help me, I can understand..."

Luo Tian asked in surprise, "Refuse? Why would I refuse?"

Gu Ye Yu Ning was stunned and said, "Did you not hear clearly? The other side might have Return to Ruins Realm experts."

Luo Tian picked his nose and said, "Return to Ruins Realm is nothing. Just wait, I'm setting off now. The Divine Martial King must die, no one can protect him, I said so!"

After speaking, he directly turned off the sound transmission talisman.

Leaving Gu Ye Yu Ning alone in the wind, confused.

On the other side, Luo Tian left the room, went to the Luo family hall, gave some instructions, had Niu Wufang guard the family, and then headed to the capital with the Jin Peng King.

After breaking through to the Return to Ruins Realm, the Jin Peng King's speed had been greatly improved.

The distance that used to take days to reach now took only half a day.

Looking ahead, the capital was in sight; viewing it from the air, it was more than dozens of times larger than Bianbei City.

Above the capital, it was shrouded in a powerful formation.

"Master, should we attack by force?" the Jin Peng King asked.

With the strength of the two of them, this formation couldn't stop them.

But Luo Tian shook his head and said, "No, we aren't here to destroy the country. Let's just enter through the gate normally."

"Yes!" The Jin Peng King replied, landed, transformed back into human form, and walked toward the city gate with Luo Tian.

"Everyone, accept the inspection! Anyone who dares to resist, kill without mercy!" At the city gate, a Divine Martial Guard held a long spear and shouted sternly; those entering the city all looked terrified.

"Hm? What is going on?" Luo Tian looked at this scene, his face full of astonishment.

A middle-aged man in line in front of him turned back to look at Luo Tian and said, "Little brother, from out of town?"

Luo Tian nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

The middle-aged man said, "Oh, that's no wonder. I advise you, don't wait in line here. You won't be able to enter the city."

"Why?" Luo Tian asked in surprise.

The middle-aged man looked at the guards still in the distance and whispered, "The capital is now in turmoil. The day after tomorrow is the once-in-a-decade Royal Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, but there are rumors that our Night Wind Kingdom is going to change dynasties that day, so the guards in the city are checking very strictly. If you don't have the documents issued by the Divine Martial King's Mansion, you can't enter the city."

Luo Tian frowned and said, "Documents issued by the Divine Martial King's Mansion? Shouldn't they be issued by the imperial court?"

The middle-aged man curled his lip and said, "The imperial court? Heh, who recognizes the imperial court now? Our Night Wind Kingdom is about to become the Divine Martial Kingdom! Forget it, it's useless to say these things, you guys should just leave."

Luo Tian nodded and said, "Thank you. In that case, we won't wait in line."

As he spoke, Luo Tian grabbed the Jin Peng King with one hand and then disappeared from the spot.

"Hm? Where are the people? Did I see a ghost?" The middle-aged man watched Luo Tian disappear from before his eyes and was stunned.

On the other side, at a street corner on the other side of the city gate, Luo Tian and the Jin Peng King suddenly appeared.

Clearly, Luo Tian had brought the Jin Peng King and teleported directly into the city.

"Master, it seems the situation is a bit complicated. What should we do?" The Jin Peng King said to Luo Tian.

Luo Tian frowned and said, "Let's meet up with Gu Ye Yu Ning first."

As he spoke, he took out the sound transmission talisman.

"Hello, Princess Gu, I've arrived at the capital," Luo Tian said.

Gu Ye Yu Ning on the other side was clearly very shocked and said, "So fast? Where are you now?"

Luo Tian looked around and said, "South city gate, just entered."

Gu Ye Yu Ning said, "That's good. Come to the west gate of the imperial palace in a while, I'll go there to pick you up!"

Luo Tian nodded and said, "Okay, see you in a while!"

After speaking, he put away the sound transmission talisman and said to the Jin Peng King, "Let's go, to the imperial palace!"

Although the capital of the Night Wind Kingdom was large, finding the imperial palace was too simple.

Very quickly, the two arrived at the west side of the imperial palace.

After waiting outside for a long while, they finally saw the side gate of the palace open, and Gu Ye Yu Ning walked out in plain clothes, looking hurried.

"Young Master Luo Tian, you've finally come!" Gu Ye Yu Ning said excitedly.

It had only been half a month since they last met, but at this moment, Gu Ye Yu Ning had lost a lot of weight, almost skin and bones.

Luo Tian looked at her and asked in surprise, "What happened to you?"

Gu Ye Yu Ning secretly looked behind her and said, "Don't talk about this for now, please follow me inside..."

As she spoke, she pulled Luo Tian and walked toward the imperial palace.

But who would have thought that at this moment...

Clatter!

A sound of armor rang out, and dozens of imperial guards suddenly appeared at the previously empty side gate.

"Princess, what are you doing?" The leading general held the hilt of his sword and said with an indifferent expression.

"General Mu? I... I am acting on the orders of my father to bring two extraordinary guests into the palace!" Gu Ye Yu Ning seemed a bit lacking in confidence, her eyes constantly flickering, and her hands were tightly clutching her clothes, looking very nervous.

General Mu on the other side had an arrogant look, looking down from above, "Sorry, acting on the orders of the Divine Martial King, without the command of the Divine Martial King, no one is allowed to enter or leave the imperial palace. Those who violate the order will be executed!"

Gu Ye Yu Ning's face turned red, "General Mu, is my father's decree not as good as the Divine Martial King's?"

General Mu snorted, his gaze swept past Gu Ye Yu Ning, turned to look at Luo Tian and the Jin Peng King, and said coldly, "You two dogs, I'll give you three breaths of time to get out, otherwise, die!"

Luo Tian raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "What did you say?"

General Mu didn't answer Luo Tian, but said coldly, "Three breaths have passed, you can go to hell!"

As he spoke, he was about to draw his sword.

But just then, his vision blurred, and Luo Tian had already arrived in front of him, one hand gripping his chin.

The next instant.

Bang!

Luo Tian exerted force, and General Mu's chin shattered into powder, flesh and blood flying everywhere.

"Ah..."

General Mu let out a miserable howl, but before he could make his next move, Luo Tian flipped his hand and directly tore his head off.

"Jin Peng, you say, does my face look that much like a soft persimmon? Every cat and dog wants to come and step on me a few times?" Luo Tian looked at the head in his hand, threw it on the ground, and then stepped on it until it exploded with a bang.
