On the morning of the third day after the World Wulin Conference ended, Jiang Feng woke up early and "dressed" himself in a new set of white clothes. He combed his hair back into a bun and then looked carefully at the copper mirror for a long time. The window opened, letting in a few rays of sunlight. When the sunlight shone on the silver spear, it reflected a bright silver light. Jiang Feng slowly closed his eyes, thinking back to the competition these few days and could not help but sigh. He took a deep breath, and his entire being suddenly became spirited. Today's dressing should be the most handsome time since he went down the mountain.

"My hero, Chiang Feng, have you done it yet? I'm going to come in! " A man with a helpless expression pushed open the door and said. Jiang Feng looked at him and laughed, then asked: "How is it? It's not a disgrace to be dressed like this, is it? " The man looked at Jiang Feng, and could not help but exclaim: "In my opinion, you do not seem like you are going to meet the current emperor, but more like a blind date." Jiang Feng spat and said: "Stop with the nonsense." So that person was actually the "Clever Hands" Wang Yixin. He sighed softly and said, "Sigh, if one day I could also have such a good opportunity to wear such handsome clothes, to see such a great character, how great would that be!" Jiang Feng patted his shoulder as he consoled him, "Don't worry, there will be chances in the future. Wang Yixin pushed his hand away and said: "Don't say that, you're obviously standing here with your waist hurt!" Jiang Feng poured a cup of tea and drank it, causing a cool sensation to spread throughout his body. He walked to the bed, picked up his bag, and smiled. "Whatever you say, I'm leaving now." Wang Yixin nodded, and said: "Alright, I'll send you downstairs."

Just as the two of them walked out of the inn, four people dressed in imperial guards' clothing rode their large horses towards them. The two people behind them were clearly the "Big Blade" Yan Kuo and the "Thunderbolt Twin Hammer" Xu Yuan. From the looks of it, Jiang Feng was the last one to be invited. Jiang Feng hurriedly straightened his clothes again and waited for them to arrive.

The leading guard who was the first to dismount walked over and asked: "May I ask if Sir is this year's Wulin Conference Champion, Participant # 49 — — Chiang Feng?" Jiang Feng cupped his hands, and said respectfully: "Yes, that's me!" He took out a wooden tablet with the number 49 engraved on it and handed it over to the head guard, indicating his identity. After confirming that there were no mistakes, the leader of the guards said, "Take your weapons and a few coils before you leave with us." Jiang Feng replied, "Okay, please wait for a moment, I will pass the package to my friend for safekeeping." The leader of the guards nodded his head. Jiang Feng turned around and walked into the Pleasant Inn.

He solemnly handed over his bag to Wang Yixin and said, "I will leave my bag with you right now. If I find anything that's missing when I return, you should know what the consequences will be, right?" Wang Yixin squinted at Jiang Feng, and disdainfully said: "Tch, forget it, let me go, you can rest easy. "If I want to covet a burden from you, you will pester me and chase me down for the rest of my life. I have never done anything that would make me lose money." Jiang Feng laughed out loud and said: "Alright, I'll go with them to see the emperor then. We'll meet again in the future!" Wang Yixin sent him out, then suddenly thought of a sentence. "Chiang Feng, be careful on the road, take care!" Jiang Feng was startled for a moment, he turned his head and waved his hands, making a gesture of farewell.

The guard leader pulled a brown horse, placed the reins in Jiang Feng's hands, and said: "This yellow maned horse is for you, we will immediately set off on the road, so as to prevent the Emperor from waiting too long." Jiang Feng tied the Cold Iron Silver Lance onto his back and then leaped onto the Yellow Maned Horse. Then, he, Yan Kuo and the rest of the four guards rode towards the imperial city gate together.

On the way, all the citizens made way for them, praising and congratulating them. Jiang Feng and Xu Yuan had known each other since the last intense battle, and now they were taking the opportunity to chat for a while. However, Yan Kuo still had that ice-cold look on his face, not saying a single word, as if he was a wooden person. Interrupting the topic, Du Shaoyang, Taoist Tai Xu and Lee Qingshuang left the capital the second day after their Wulin Conference ended, returning to Qing Xu Sect of Henan)

Wang Yixin watched Jiang Feng and the others leave, and just as he was about to go back to his room and put down his bag, he decided to rest afterwards. At this moment, a purple dressed lady entered the inn. She called out to Wang Yixin and said: "Big Brother Wang, please halt. Hearing the beautiful voice, Wang Yixin turned his head and said with a smile: "Oh, so it's Lady Faang. You came late, and Chiang Feng was just taken away by a few imperial guards." Faang Xinyao was a little dejected, and softly sighed: "Really? Sigh, I had originally wanted to send you off, Young Master Chiang, but I came too late. " She laughed bitterly again, but Wang Yixin suddenly remembered something, and said: "Oh, right, Lady Faang, Chiang Feng told me something last night, he wanted to tell you face to face." Faang Xinyao asked: "Oh? What is it? " Wang Yixin enunciated each word clearly: "He said 'I will remember that matter', and that's all. As for what it was, he did not say it clearly." When Faang Xinyao heard this, he naturally understood in her heart. She nodded slowly and said, "Alright, I understand. Since Young Master Chiang has already left, then I will take my leave. " Seeing this, Wang Yixin kept it a secret. Originally, he would have been curious and asked him to investigate it to the end, but he was afraid that Chiang Feng and Faang Xinyao would be unhappy, so he could only give up.

After some effort, Jiang Feng and his group finally arrived at the majestic and grand entrance of the imperial city. At this moment, a dignified looking man, dressed in the robes of a tiger and leopard, was seen riding over. The four guards who were there to welcome the participants immediately dismounted, while Jiang Feng, Yan Kuo and Xu Yuan had no choice but to dismount. The leader of the guards bowed and said respectfully, "This lowly one greets Master Lu." A trace of righteousness was emitted from that person's square face between his brows. The four words tall and mighty were extremely suitable to be used on him. The middle-aged man who was referred to as Master Lu asked with his robust voice: "Are these three the top three competitors in World Wulin Conference this time around?" The leader of the guards lowered his head and replied, "Reporting to Master Lu, it's these three people." Seeing this, Xu Yuan did not dare be rash, and said to Jiang Feng in a low voice: "Hey, Chiang Feng, look at these people, their attitudes towards us and toward this Master Lu are completely different!" Jiang Feng did not say anything, he only laughed, but in his heart, he thought: Of course, but what kind of person is Master Lu? From the looks of it, he was at most in his prime. However, his status in the imperial court was not low at all. The words of Master Lu interrupted Jiang Feng's thoughts, and he shouted loudly: "The four of you should return to the palace to rest, I will personally take these three with me." The four guards replied in unison, "Yes, this subordinate understands!" The four guards immediately mounted their horses and entered the imperial city. Xu Yuan could not help but ask, "Master Lu, aren't we going to see the current emperor? Why aren't you letting us in when we're already at the door? Where are you taking us again? " These words were the questions in Jiang Feng and Yan Kuo's hearts, but the two of them were older than Xu Yuan after all, so they wouldn't be so reckless. Master Lu's face was filled with the word 'strict', and he shouted fiercely: "Don't be so long-winded, you three follow me on horseback, I will naturally bring you to see the Emperor." When he spoke of the emperor, he cupped his hands over his head to show his reverence for him. The Master Lu rode his horse towards the north gate, causing Xu Yuan to feel bored. He stayed silent and followed Yan Kuo and the others to catch up to the Master Lu in front.

On the way, Yan Kuo suddenly spoke out, and said to Xu Yuan: "Child, you are truly rude, do you know who the Master Lu is?" Xu Yuan's expression changed as he said angrily: "Cold Face, how many times have I told you this? Don't call me child, who is he and what does it have to do with me?!" Jiang Feng was curious, he took over and asked: "Big Brother Yan, may I ask, do you know this Lu Da? No, it should be said that you have met Lu Shen Zhui once." Xu Yuan's anger slowly faded and he asked, "What? Have you really seen him before? What's the meaning of this? " Yan Kuo also did not look at him, and said: "This Master Lu is the famous arrest in the capital ten years ago." Jiang Feng was shocked, and said: "What? You're saying that he was arrested ten years ago? Could it be him? " Yan Kuo slightly nodded, and said. "I didn't think that even you had heard of his great name."

What about later?

And then we'll see how it breaks down in the next round.
