People write diaries in Zongwu, and the heroes collapse

"boom!"

"boom!"

The two men exchanged palm strikes in mid-air, and Lu Chen was knocked back to the ground with his feet sinking into the mud, while the mysterious man disappeared without a trace in a flash.

"Lu Lang, you are not hurt, right?"

Mu Wanqing walked over with an anxious look on her face.

"I am fine."

Lu Chen shook his head slightly.

"This man is so powerful that even you can't take him down."

Li Mochou walked over with a very solemn expression.

Such a master has appeared before we even reach the capital. If we were to reach the capital, who knows how much danger we would be in.

"This person is indeed powerful, but he should not be from the Song Dynasty."

Lu Chen said.

"If they are not from the Song Dynasty, then who are they?"

The two asked curiously.

"When I fought him, I found that he didn't use his full strength. He seemed to be hiding his identity."

Although Lu Chen could not tell the true origin of the mysterious man, he was sure that this person was most likely not from the Song Dynasty.

The reason why the other party did this was to hide his true identity.

However, since he has such strength, he definitely cannot be an unknown person.

"Whether he is from the Song Dynasty or not, he is so powerful. I'm afraid he will be even more dangerous when he arrives in the capital. We still have to be careful."

Li Mochou reminded.

"That's right, we really need to pay more attention to it."

Mu Wanqing nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, I'm prepared. Let's find a place to rest for the night and then get ready to hit the road tomorrow."

Lu Chen said.

The next day, Lu Chen and his companions continued their journey to the capital.

In a remote palace in the imperial palace of the capital.

Zhuge Shenhou was sitting cross-legged in mid-air with his eyes closed.

If you look closely, you will find that there are wisps of black air around Zhuge Shenhou, which is a sign of poisoning.

"How is the Lord God?"

A deep voice suddenly sounded.

At some point, a person was already standing in front of Zhuge Shenhou.

This is an old eunuch.

Zhuge Shenhou opened his eyes and looked at the old eunuch. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Did you do all this?"

The person in front of him was the eunuch Kuihua who had previously killed Lu Chen.

"Goddess, I don't want to trap you, but Lu Chen must die."

The sunflower eunuch said.

"He saved the Song Dynasty, why did you want to kill him?"

Zhuge Shenhou asked in confusion.

Eunuch Kuihua is the most skilled warrior in the royal family and is only loyal to the royal family.

He believed that the eunuch Kuihua must know about Lu Chen's victory over the enemy in Xiyun City.

He didn't quite understand why the Sunflower Eunuch was determined to deal with Lu Chen.

"His existence is too dangerous for the royal family."

Eunuch Kuihua said bluntly.

"I know him a little bit. He won't interfere with the royal family, nor will he betray the Song Dynasty."

Zhuge Shenhou knew a little about Lu Chen, so he trusted Lu Chen very much.

After hearing this, Sunflower Eunuch shook her head gently: "Shen Hou, you think too simply. Today, he may not interfere with the royal family, but what can he guarantee tomorrow?"

"Who knows what will happen tomorrow?"

Zhuge Shenhou laughed and said, "Killing a person without a single piece of evidence. So, I can also kill someone with this reason."

Zhuge Shenhou was obviously a little angry. If he could kill people with this reason, his political enemies would have died in his hands long ago. Who in the entire capital could stop him, not even the eunuch Kuihua in front of him.

This time, the reason why he fell into the trap was entirely out of his trust in the emperor, but he did not expect that he would be plotted against, so he was poisoned and trapped in the palace.

Although he was trapped, he was not worried about his safety.

The current emperor is not so foolish as to want to kill him, but he is afraid that he will ruin their plan to deal with Lu Chen, so he agrees to trap him.

If Lu Chen was really detrimental to the Song Dynasty, he would do it himself without the need for an imperial decree. However, Lu Chen had clearly made contributions to the court, but the court could not tolerate him, which made Zhuge Shenhou indignant.

In fact, he also guessed why the emperor and the sunflower eunuch must get rid of Lu Chen. The main reason was that Lu Chen was growing too fast. If he was allowed to grow further, no one in the entire Song Dynasty would be able to suppress him.

This is the real reason why they must get rid of Lu Chen.

"Don't be angry, Lord Shen. We are doing this for the good of the Song Dynasty. If this boy is not eliminated, he will be above the government in the future. How can the Song Dynasty still have the face to survive?"

Eunuch Kuihua advised.

Zhuge Shenhou didn't say anything, but just snorted coldly and said, "I am now poisoned and trapped here by you. I can't stop you from doing anything you want to do. However, I also remind you that although Lu Chen looks young, he is not that easy to deal with."

Zhuge Shenhou knew very well in his heart that Lu Chen was growing very fast and was not so easy to deal with.

In terms of cultivation, the Sunflower Eunuch might be superior to Lu Chen, but it is not so easy to kill Lu Chen.

In his opinion, even if Lu Chen was tricked into the palace, with Lu Chen's intelligence and martial arts, he would be able to escape from the palace smoothly.

"Please rest assured, Lord Shen. I have already thought of this, so I have a plan in place. I guarantee that this time he will not be able to return."

Eunuch Kuihua said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Shenhou's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he said in a deep voice: "Have you asked an expert to help you?"

"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the Divine Marquis."

Eunuch Sunflower said with a smile.

"There are only a handful of experts in the Heavenly Man Realm in the entire Song Dynasty. It is not easy to ask them to take action."

Zhuge Shenhou muttered to himself.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he looked at the Sunflower Eunuch in surprise: "You have allied with other countries?"

"Goddess, take good care of your wounds. Once you force the poison out, this matter will be over."

Eunuch Kuihua did not answer Zhuge Shenhou. He said something lightly, turned around and left the palace.

After walking out of the palace, a eunuch walked over quickly, whispered a few words, and then retreated.

Eunuch Sunflower's expression suddenly turned very ugly. "I didn't expect that even he is no match for Lu Chen. It seems that I still underestimated this boy."

After looking back at the palace, Eunuch Kuihua left.

Zhuge Shenhou in the palace was indeed not as relaxed as before. He was very optimistic about Lu Chen and believed that he could take his place in guarding the Song Dynasty. After all, he would retire sooner or later.

However, he did not expect that the current emperor would not tolerate Lu Chen, which made it very difficult for him.

Lu Chen might already be on the way. He really couldn't help Lu Chen. Whether he could turn danger into safety this time depended on Lu Chen himself.

"I don't know what happened to Tieshou, Wuqing and the others."

Zhuge Shenhou was a little worried about his beloved disciples. He was trapped here, and his disciples must not be in a good condition either.

He shook his head. What's the point of thinking so much? He could do nothing now. He could only calm down and force the poison out of his body first.
