The Alchemist God

In the Zetian Temple, twelve golden dragon pillars support the glazed jade tiles on the main hall, and the lustrous jade stone pavement reflects the light of glazed lamps. In the afternoon, this is another court meeting for the officials to meet the emperor.

...

Qin Jin stood in front of the throne with a face full of joy, watching Su Muyun, Qin Yin, Feng Jixing and others come in from outside, with a wider smile on his face, he opened his arms and said, Xiao Yin, you are finally back...

Qin Yin lightly moved her lotus steps, and lightly held the tassels on her skirt with both hands, and walked to her father in small steps. She stuck out her tongue and said with a playful smile: Father, Xiao Yin is back!

Qin Jin supported his daughter's fragrant shoulders, and asked with kindness in his eyes, Did you encounter any danger along the way?

Qin Yin was stunned, but thought of the terrifying killer she met by the Daojiang River. The scene of surviving a near death was still in front of her eyes. She couldn't help trembling slightly, and said, It's okay, this is not coming back alive. What's the matter, royal father, grandpa also came back with me.

Um.

Qin Jin nodded and smiled, stepped down from the gilded steps, came to the front of Su Muyun, clasped his fists and said, Mr. Yun, Qin Jin is being polite. Mr. Yun has been traveling so hard!

Su Muyun hurriedly helped the emperor up, and said with a smile: Your Majesty is so old, there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony. As the governor of the Yunzhong Province, this old man naturally has to share his worries for His Majesty. I hate that Hu Tiening minted gold coins privately. If there is nothing in the laws of the empire, you really deserve to die. This trip to the Cangnan Province has been completed, and we have returned with Hu Tiening's head!

Su Qin, who was behind him, walked forward holding the gold-plated box, opened it and said, Your Majesty, this is Hu Tiening's head!

Qin Jin didn't look at it at all, nodded and said: General Su Qin has worked hard, and after the reward, he will send it to Muyu City.

Thank you, Your Majesty!

Qin Jin said with concern: Duke Yun, let's live in Zetian Palace today, anyway... there are many side rooms, even if Duke Yun, General Su Qin, and General Su Yu live in Zetian Palace with their entourage, there is no problem. You are all your own family, don't see outsiders, just treat it as going home.

However, Su Muyun clasped his fists and said with a smile: Your Majesty, we are all courtiers, how can we be so overbearing, the ancestors said that only Your Majesty, concubines, and descendants can live in the Zetian Palace, and we still live in the posthouse in the imperial capital. Bar.

Then... that's the best thing to do. There is a banquet in the Zetian Palace tonight, and Mr. Yun should stay here. If we don't get drunk, we won't return.

The old minister leads the order!

...

In the afternoon, Qin Lei led a group of imperial guards to escort Su Muyun, Su Qin, and Su Yu to the post house to rest. Su Muyun didn't bring many guards, only 500 Muyucheng guards. This was also to avoid suspicion. After all, he led too many people. Entering Lanyan City is tantamount to colliding with the emperor, and Su Muyun, as an honored official of two generations, naturally knows how to do it.

In Zetian Hall, Qin Yin, Feng Jixing, Lin Muyu, Chu Huaimian and others were still there. Lin Muyu and Chu Huaimian chatted about the past for a while, and when they talked about Chu Yao's recent situation, Chu Huaimian smiled proudly: Ah Yao's refining skills, medical skills, and cultivation have improved a lot, and it is said that she has been able to refine level 7 potions, and the head deacon of the Spiritual Medicine Department is considering whether to promote A Yao as one of the deacons of the Spiritual Medicine Department!

Wow, sister Chu Yao is so powerful now? Lin Muyu said happily: Then congratulate her first, once she is promoted to the deacon of the department of elixir, she will have enough status in the imperial capital.

Chu Huaimin chuckled: No matter how powerful Ah Yao is, she can't compare to you...

Lin Muyu touched his nose and said modestly, I... what kind of onion am I?

Haha, don't be modest. Your Majesty will definitely reward you for your extraordinary achievements this time. Just wait and see!

I hope so!

At this moment, Tang Xiaoxi came to Zetian Hall and was brought in by the courtiers. She was dressed in red, with a charming smile on her pretty face, and said angrily, Mumu, you won't even come to see me when you come back!

Ouch, your enemy is here, I'll back off for a while! Chu Huaimian cupped his fists and smiled: The last general, Chu Huaimian, bids farewell!

Lin Muyu didn't have time to greet him, so she turned to Tang Xiaoxi and said, Didn't you just return to the imperial capital to pay the order... I don't have time to visit you yet, but Xiaoxi, you're very well informed, so you'll know I'm back soon .”

snort.

Tang Xiaoxi folded her arms in front of her chest, but squeezed the pair of peaks even more plump: You are right! If it weren't for the rumors everywhere on Tongtian Street that Mu Yungong and His Royal Highness Yin have returned to Lanyan City, I would have Didn't know you were back too!

Lin Muyu smiled apologetically: This mission is very confidential, so I didn't have time to inform you. Don't be angry, but how is your cultivation going during the time I'm away?

Tang Xiaoxi smiled slightly: Hehe, I have already refined the fifth layer of the Firefox seal!

So fast?! Congratulations, Xiao Xi!

whee.

At this time, Qin Yin walked down the steps and said with a smile, Xiao Xi, you are here too!

Tang Xiaoxi curled her lips: Xiaoyin, you are so mean. You secretly went out to visit the mountains and rivers with Mumu, leaving me alone in Lanyan City to practice boringly. You must bring me next time!

Hmph... Qin Yin pouted: Ah Yu and I almost lost our lives in Daojiang, what are you talking about!

Huh? What happened?

Qin Yin briefly narrated the incident of meeting that person on the Daojiang River. At this time, Qu Chu also came and listened to him for a while, and couldn't help but look stern.

Your Highness, the person you met really used black grudge.

Well, Ah Yu and I both saw it. Qin Yin nodded heavily.

Really, Ayu? Qu Chu confirmed again.

Lin Muyu clasped his fists and said, Yes, Elder Qu, his dark grudge is very powerful, but what is even more powerful is his swordsmanship, which is a swordsmanship that I have never seen before. Under his sword, I can't go three rounds. If it wasn't for the help of the Frost Armored Horned Dragon in Daojiang, I'm afraid Xiao Yin and I will both die in Yunzhong Province this time.

Excellent swordsmanship?

Qu Chu frowned and said, Ah Yu, Xiao Yin, follow me!

yes.

Qin Yin and Lin Muyu left Zetian Palace with Qu Chu, Feng Jixing and Chu Huaimian went to carry out inspection missions, Tang Xiaoxi had nothing to do, so the uninvited ones followed, and the four of them came along the King's Corridor Zangshu Pavilion, at the moment of entering Zangshu Pavilion, Qu Chu turned to the officials of Zangshu Pavilion and said, Close the gate, and no one can enter without my order.

Yes, Master Qu Chu!

With a creak, the door closed, and there were only the four of them left in the Library Pavilion. The candles flickered, and there was an indescribable silence. There are many things I want to know.

Um.

Although Lin Muyu and Qin Yin didn't know why Qu Chu was so nervous after hearing about this person, they knew that there must be some great event hidden in it.

...

Tang Xiaoxi did not personally experience this assassination, so he made tea obediently by the side, while quietly listening to the three of them chatting about the assassination by the Daojiang River. On the other hand, he crawled aside like a big dog, wagging his tail to flatter Tang Xiaoxi, which made Lin Muyu look down on him very much. This guy only knows how to be coquettish and cute to beautiful women, so he should be decisive.

Ah Yu, apart from his dark fighting spirit and superb swordsmanship, what other characteristics does he have? Qu Chu asked.

Others...

Lin Muyu groaned, trying to remember and said: That's right...every time he attacks with energy, his eyes will turn into blood red, just like the blood color of sunset.

Qu Chu's body trembled slightly: And then?

Then... it seems that there are no special features, but it is very arrogant, and seems to look down on me and Xiao Yin, although I don't know where his self-confidence comes from.

...

By the way, we found something like an iron ruler in the ruins of a temple. This person came here to seize this iron ruler, and he said it was a sacred artifact.

Really? Qu Chu opened his eyes wide: Then, where is this iron ruler?

It was refined by me... Lin Muyu said with some embarrassment: At that time, thousands of horned dragons in Daojiang attacked me and him, he tore up and ate him, and it was difficult for me to escape. Bite, so I cut off my left arm to escape. After losing an arm, I sensed that there was a strong life energy in this iron ruler, so I refined it. I didn't expect to really reshape my left arm .”

What!?

Tang Xiaoxi put down the teacup, hurriedly stepped forward to support Lin Muyu's arm, observed it carefully, raised her head in astonishment and said, Mumu, your arm...was broken before?

En. Lin Muyu nodded: The arm you see now is actually a new arm reshaped by the fusion of my blood and the iron ruler.

Qu Chu stroked his white beard with a solemn expression, and said, After you refined this iron ruler, did you gain any kind of ability?

Well, the strength of the left arm has been greatly improved, and it seems to be able to condense an energy layer capable of self-protection.

Come on, run it out, let grandpa see.

yes.

Lin Muyu stood up and left the table far away, suddenly full of fighting spirit, and a faint sound of dragon chant came from the sound of drinking, and the image of a golden dragon lingered around the left arm, and the whole arm was glowing with transparent luster , During the period of endless righteousness, people have a posture that they must kneel down and worship.

This... Qu Chu was stunned, his eyes couldn't hide the astonishment and admiration: Ayu, you are truly favored by the heavens, and you can still get this kind of ancient divine power after narrowly dying!

Ancient divine power?

Lin Muyu asked in surprise: Old Qu, is this ancient divine power?

Yes, you don't know the origin of this iron ruler, do you?

Well, I really don't know.

Qu Chu said leisurely: Xiao Yin, go and get the Gods and Demons from the deepest part of the Zangshu Pavilion. Yes, it is the handed down history book written by Dong Hanshu 28,000 years ago.

Yes, old man Qu.
