Chapter 173: The First Person in Shaolin! Goodbye Emperor, Invisible Veil [Subscribe]

Captain Cao rushed into the Damo Courtyard and shouted at the figure sitting cross-legged in the hall.

Hear this.

Gongjin opened his eyes and frowned.

"How could he be captured while he was in the palace?"

"Wasn't Commander Wang in the palace at the time?"

He had been to the palace before and had solemnly reminded Commander Wang.

Be careful of the revenge of the Black Fox King.

Unexpectedly, this tragedy finally happened.

Was this due to the negligence of Commander Wang, or was it due to the cunning of the Black Fox Gang...

Captain Cao could only smile bitterly and said:

"Commander Wang went to Yangzhou these days to pay respects to his first wife."

"Master Gong, you don't know that there are pawns of the Black Fox Gang in the palace. They colluded with each other inside and outside to kidnap Miss Mengdi."

Wang Mengdi was arrested and the emperor was furious!
The Queen Mother was furious!
If the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard had not been interceded by ministers such as Tang Fuyin, he would have been executed by Your Majesty long ago!
Just imagine how the people from the Black Fox Gang could sneak into the palace quietly and kidnap Wang Mengdi.

Then next time, will it be other royal relatives?
Or maybe, it’s the emperor of the time!
He sighed respectfully and said:
"This child is destined to suffer this misfortune!"

When Captain Cao heard this, he thought that Gong Jin was just standing by and watching, so he asked hurriedly:

"Master Gong, what should we do now?"

"Meng Di is Commander Wang's daughter. We can't just stand by and watch her die. On the night of the incident, the palace sent someone to Yangzhou to inform Commander Wang."

"According to the time calculation, Commander Wang can return to Kaifeng tonight at the earliest."

Gongjin shook his head and said helplessly:

"Right now, we don't know where Commander Wang's daughter has been taken abducted?"

"Based on the information Shaolin currently has, it will be difficult to rescue Miss Mengdi in a short period of time..."

Upon hearing this, Captain Cao's face turned bitter:
"This……"

Even Master Gongjin feels that there is little hope, so could it be that Wang Mengdi is really hopeless?

Seeing this, he comforted her respectfully:

"Captain Cao, there is no need to worry too much. Miss Meng Di's life should not be in danger for the time being. The people from the Black Fox Gang kidnapped her for something."

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to capture her from the palace..."

Captain Cao nodded and said:

"What Master Gong said makes some sense."

"But now the palace is in chaos. Prefect Tang asked me to come to Shaolin to ask Master Gong to come down the mountain and go to the palace to take charge for a few days."

"Sit in charge?"

Gongjin couldn't help but chuckle at Captain Cao's words.

Immediately, he waved his hand and said:
"I'm old and I don't have the energy."

"Why not let Lin Xuan go?"

"Brother Lin?"

Captain Cao glared.

Lin Xuan’s strength is indeed amazing, and he is almost the number one person in the Spirit Refining Realm.

But after all, he is not a spirit cultivator. If he goes to the palace and really runs into the Black Fox King, his life might be in danger.

As if he saw the tangle in Captain Cao's heart, he smiled respectfully and said:
"Brother Lin, you are really powerful right now. I am no match for you."

"He has cultivated a complete soul state, and his cultivation has reached the half-step soul-refining realm!"

"You should rest assured that he will be in charge of the palace."

The words fell.

Captain Cao suddenly turned pale and exclaimed:
"what?"

"Half a step to refine the spirit, a complete spirit form?!"

"This... This is impossible, right? Master Gong, are you kidding me? How long has it been since Brother Lin broke through the Yuqi realm?"

Captain Cao couldn't believe his ears.

The respectful abbot actually said that Brother Lin’s cultivation had reached the half-step spirit refining realm!
But at the beginning of the year, he was not yet at the Yuqi realm...

This progress is too fast!
He just finished speaking.

Outside the door, the young man's clear voice was heard.

"Brother Cao, long time no see."

Turning back, it was Lin Xuan walking towards here leisurely.

At this moment, Lin Xuan's eyes were shining brightly, and the aura around him had completely returned to its original state, without any fluctuation of true Qi being felt.

But there is an indescribable aura and style in his every gesture.

He had only seen this kind of demeanor in Abbot Sanzang and Chief Monk Gongjin!
If Captain Cao had previously felt that Lin Xuan was a surging volcano that could erupt at any time, it would have been a heart-wrenching experience.

But now it is a gurgling stream, which is awe-inspiring!
This is a complete sublimation.

At this time, Captain Cao even began to doubt whether Lin Xuan had already become the number one in Shaolin!

"Brother Lin...Brother Lin, are you really stronger than Master Gong?"

Captain Cao suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and asked.

There was a little more respect in his words than in the past.

Lin Xuan first glanced at Master Gongjin, then smiled slightly:
"That's right..."

Lin Xuan noticed it as soon as Captain Cao arrived in Shaolin.

Right now, Lin Xuan’s spiritual power could already cover the entire Shaolin.

Therefore, he can sense any slight disturbance immediately.

Lin Xuan couldn't guess for a while why Captain Cao came to Shaolin.

However, Captain Cao is Tang Fuyin's man, and every time he comes to Shaolin, there must be something big going on.

This time, no one knows what happened in Kaifeng City?

Hearing this, Gong Jin immediately laughed and scolded:

"What do you mean, you little brat? Even your uncle can't see through your strength..."

Lin Xuan peeped into the Incarnation Kiln and secretly fought with Zen Master Jueyuan using the power of his soul. He listened attentively to what Abbot Sanzang said.

Naturally, he understood that his spiritual power was far superior to his own.

Come to your senses.

Captain Cao looked at Lin Xuan and said truthfully:
"Brother Lin, there's no need to be polite between you and me."

"Right now, Commander Wang's daughter has been captured by the Black Fox Gang, and the palace is in chaos. Prefect Tang asked me to invite Lord Gong to the palace to take charge."

"He recommended you to me. I wonder if Brother Lin is willing to help?"

"Meng Di was captured by the Black Fox Gang?"

Lin Xuan's expression suddenly darkened.

Do not know why.

Whenever he mentioned Mengdi, his mind always emerged of that day in the future world on the streets of Kaifeng, when the grown-up Mengdi looked at him with those cold and heartbreaking eyes.

"How long have you been captured?"

Lin Xuan calmed down and asked Captain Cao.

"It's been almost two days." said Captain Cao.

"Two days?"

Lin Xuan's expression changed.

After a few moments of silence, Lin Xuan clasped his fists and said:

"Uncle, please tell Master that I need to go down the mountain."

"If it weren't for Commander Wang attracting the group of black wolf spiders during the trip to Kaifeng to protect the emperor, we might not have been able to escape the pursuit of the Black Fox King."

He nodded respectfully and said:

"Lin Xuan, don't worry, your master won't blame you."

Lin Xuan turned around and said to Captain Cao:

"Then let's go, Brother Cao."

Captain Cao immediately said:

"The horses are outside the temple. Let's set off immediately."

soon.

The two of them left the Dharma Court together, came to the outside of the temple, jumped on their horses, threw the reins, and headed straight for the palace.

……

The two had just left not long ago.

Tang Xiaolong and Chen Xiaohu heard the noise and ran out.

Looking at the two figures in the distance, Tang Xiaolong felt uneasy. He said:
"Brother, you are so anxious to leave with Uncle Cao. Could something serious have happened in Kaifeng Prefecture?"

"No, I have to go home too!"

Just as he was about to go to the stable to get the horse, Gongjin came out of the temple:
"return."

"Something happened in the palace, and Lin Xuan was invited to stay in the palace for a few days."

"You two should stop getting involved."

"During this period of time, practice well."

"In the palace?"

Tang Xiaolong frowned.

Is it the palace?
What could happen in the palace?

……

"So, the villain kidnapped Miss Meng Di and took Princess Long Xi's car out of the palace?"

"That's right." "The maids and guards around Princess Longxi were suspected to have been manipulated by the Black Fox Gang a long time ago. The Black Fox Gang has definitely had bargaining chips in place for the kidnapping for a long time."

"Where is Commander Wang?"

"He has been to Yangzhou to pay respect to his deceased wife these days. He should be back tonight."

"Brother Cao, we don't need to be so anxious. The Black Fox Gang kidnapped Meng Di not just to take revenge on Commander Wang. There must be other reasons behind this."

"Master Gong also thinks so..."

"but……"

Speaking of it.

Captain Cao seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

"Brother Lin, let me be frank. Compared to Qi Mengdi's life, the safety of the palace is the most important thing right now!"

"If you really go to the palace, it won't be easy to leave calmly before this matter is resolved."

"In my opinion, should we wait for Commander Wang to return before entering the palace together?"

"It's okay. I will explain it to His Majesty then."

"The Song Dynasty is now prosperous. Your Majesty is an emperor and the master of humanity. You have the destiny of Ziwei and worship the mountains and rivers. Therefore, you have the spirit of an emperor and the spirit of humanity. How dare any ordinary demon mess around!"

"Meng Di must be saved!"

"If His Majesty really doesn't agree, I will also rush out of the palace."

"Brother Lin, you really have a chivalrous heart!"

"I don't deserve chivalry...

"..."

On the way back to Kaifeng City, Lin Xuan and Captain Cao talked as they traveled.

I also had a general understanding of the situation in the palace and what happened.

In the original plot, the Black Fox Gang wanted to kidnap Meng Di so that Wang Daosen could steal the invisible veil from the palace.

But what happened now was that the Black Fox soldiers had blatantly exposed the fact that Meng Di had been kidnapped!
From this we can see that the bargaining chips that the Black Fox Gang wants will only be bigger!

It’s definitely not something that can be solved with a simple invisible tulle!
……

Sunset.

Lin Xuan and Captain Cao finally arrived in Kaifeng City.

Soon, the horses galloped towards the palace without stopping.

When they arrived at the palace, Lin Xuan and Captain Cao revealed their identities and the guards immediately let them pass.

……

Baohe Hall.

Emperor Zhao Ning was sitting on the throne with a sad face.

There were several ministers in front of the hall, all with anxious looks on their faces.

at this time.

Tang Fuyin suddenly walked up to the hall and said:
"Report!"

"Your Majesty, Captain Cao has invited Marquis Xuanyong to come from Shaolin Temple."

"Right now, I am waiting outside the palace."

Zhao Ning was slightly surprised.

He thought of Lin Xuan's bravery and said hurriedly:
"Oh, Marquis Xuan Yong is here?"

"Let him in quickly."

"According to the order!"

next moment.

Lin Xuan walked into the hall and bowed to Zhao Ning:
"Greetings to the Holy One!"

"Lord Lin, there's no need to be so polite."

Zhao Ning said.

Say it.

Lin Xuan slowly stood up.

When Zhao Ning saw Lin Xuan for the first time, his eyes couldn't help but freeze.

He and Lin Xuan hadn't seen each other for just a few months.

For some reason, he always felt that the current Marquis Xuanyong had undergone earth-shaking changes compared to a few months ago!
Whether it's temperament or appearance.

Soon, Emperor Zhao Ning asked Lin Xuan:
"Lord Lin, I'm sure you understand what's going on in the palace."

"In your opinion, will the Black Fox Gang cause trouble in the palace again?"

Lin Xuan answered without hesitation:

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, the Black Fox Gang will not commit this crime again. Your Majesty is the supreme ruler of a country, with a noble fate and the aura of an emperor. The Black Fox King is just a demon, how dare he commit this crime?"

"Besides, after this incident, the palace has been strictly guarded inside and outside, like an iron barrel, not even a fly can fly in."

Hear this.

Emperor Zhao Ning was very pleased.

He understood that Lin Xuan had great cultivation skills and was praised by the monks of Shaolin Temple as the reincarnation of Buddha. His aptitude was even better than those three Shaolin monks back then!
If these words were said by those fawning ministers, he would just laugh it off.

But Lin Xuan is different.

Therefore, after Lin Xuan finished speaking, most of the worries in his heart disappeared.

After a while, Emperor Zhao Ning seemed to remember something, and said seriously:

"But Commander Wang's daughter has been captured."

"I have watched this child grow up, and I cannot ignore her. Lord Lin, do you have any ideas to save her from the tiger's mouth?"

Lin Xuan smiled bitterly:
"I don't know where the Black Fox King's lair is. Even if I want to save him, I am powerless."

Emperor Zhao Ning felt nervous:
"Then there is no other way?"

"There is a way. It depends on what chips the Black Fox King offers and your majesty's mercy." Lin Xuan said in a deep voice.

The emperor Zhao Ning's eyes turned, and his majesty became more and more serious:

"Chips?"

"What bargaining chips? Lord Lin, are you saying that the Black Fox Gang dares to blackmail me?"

Hear this.

Lin Xuan didn't say anything.

Just remain silent.

How could Emperor Zhao Ning not understand that he had guessed correctly?

He sneered:

"It seems that this Black Fox King is really bold!"

"What does he want?"

Lin Xuan shook his head:

"I don't know this yet."

Then, the conversation changed:
"But it should be soon!"

Emperor Zhao Ning understood what Lin Xuan said, and asked the ministers:
"How long will it take for Commander Wang to return?"

A minister said:

"Your Majesty, Commander Wang will be back tonight. It's getting late now, so it will probably take another hour."

The minister then suggested:
"Your Majesty, why don't you go have dinner first?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Zhao Ning suddenly said:

"I am a little hungry. I haven't had a full meal in the past two days. Now that Lord Lin is here, I feel much more relieved."

"You have been with me for quite some time, so go down and have a rest first."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

All the ministers bowed and kowtowed.

Having said that, he respectfully escorted Emperor Zhao Ning out of the palace.

After Emperor Zhao Ning left.

Tang Fuyin couldn't help but say to Lin Xuan:

"Marquis Xuanyong, why are you the one coming down the mountain this time? Where is the chief monk Gongjin?"

In his opinion, Lin Xuan was still a little young, and his strength was not as good as Abbot Sanzang and Master Gongjin.

Lin Xuan said: "Master is still in the temple."

"Then he..."

When Tang Fuyin was about to ask a question.

Captain Cao, who followed him into the hall, was the first to reply:
"Sir, Brother Lin's strength is already above that of the Honorable First Lord."

"Everyone can feel more at ease if he comes to the palace."

Tang Fuyin's eyes widened immediately, staring at Lin Xuan:

"what?!"

……

That night.

It's approaching midnight.

Suddenly, the sound of hurried horse hooves was heard outside the palace.

The next moment, the sound of armor colliding rang out.

In the room.

Hearing the noise, Lin Xuan immediately walked out of the house.

He knew that Commander Wang was back!
