Afterwards, the imperial capital was shrouded in an invisible tense atmosphere, even if the new year is approaching, this atmosphere has not diminished in the slightest.

This year, too many unexpected things happened in the imperial capital, and the level of excitement was far better than previous years.

The Centennial Star Festival failed unexpectedly.

The salted fish of the second son, the civil servant in the General Zhen Guo's mansion, turned over.

The glory of the Zhen Guo General's Mansion!

The birth of Princess Suzaku and Marquis of Seven Colors!

The appreciation of Xu Luo from Feng Yue Lou, the owner of Feng Yue Lou, and the mysterious Mr. Feng...

Several major cases that shook the imperial capital, the warehouses of seven or eight families were looted!

All kinds of strange things happened to Wei Xiang's family, 78 big shops of the Wei family all over the imperial capital were destroyed, Mrs. Wei committed suicide in shame and indignation after being exposed for having an affair with her servants...

The 'book post' incident vaguely circulated in the upper circles...

It can be said that everything is interesting to talk about.

In the eyes of many people, this year belongs to the Xu family of General Zhen Guo's Mansion... It is also the year that belongs to Xu Luo, the second son of General Zhen Guo's mansion!

What else could be more surprising than Xu Luo's transformation?

Originally a young man whose body was so weak that he often fainted, after a few months, he became a martial artist not inferior to any of his peers.

Even though it's only been done a few times, it's amazing every time!

Even Wei Yun, the instructor of Zhenwu Academy, who had the level of an eighth-rank great swordsman a few years ago, and is now a strong man who has reached the level of a ninth-rank peak great swordsman, used [-]% of his skills, but Xu Luo could only let him go. Suffered a little injury.

As soon as this incident got out, countless people became very interested in that lofty, mysterious and powerful hermit sect!

Because it is said that the reason why Xu Luo's body can undergo such a big change is precisely because his mother, who was born in the sect, returned to the master's sect to ask for medicine!

Otherwise, Xu Luo would still be the medicine pot, the little waste, and the civil servant's job in the past!

It's a pity that the reason why those big sects are called hermit sects is because they are mysterious and aloof. How can ordinary people have such blessings to be in the eyes of the sects?

Sects are hidden from the secular world and are higher than the secular world, but they influence the secular world all the time.

The day before Zhenwu Academy's holiday, Seventh Princess found Xu Luo and told Xu Luo unhappy that she was leaving.

"My royal father contacted me with a big sect, who also sent people to check my physique, saying that I can enter that sect and become the registered disciple of the suzerain..."

When Seventh Princess said these words, she looked at Xu Luo reluctantly: "I don't want to go, I don't want to leave you."

Xu Luo's heart was also full of reluctance, and at the same time, he was a little surprised, because he suddenly remembered what Fenghuang had said when he had quietly left.

"You think of imperial power... too simply!"

"Could it be that behind the royal family... is there really a shadow of sect?" Xu Luo shook his head slightly, not wanting to think about these questions. He raised his head and looked at the stunning girl in front of him.

"Qiqi, it would be a good thing if he had the opportunity to join the sect, and he could directly become the suzerain's disciple..."

"It's a registered disciple!" Seventh Princess emphasized, and then looked at Xu Luo: "Do you also think it is a good thing to enter the sect?"

"Hehe, at least, it can make you stronger than you are now, right?" Xu Luo said with a smile.

"Actually, I know that my father seems to be very honored and favored by your family, but in fact he has been on guard. I don't want to see these things. Maybe you are right. Entering a sect is also a matter for me. Good thing." Seventh Princess smiled playfully and said, "At least, within a few years, I won't have to face those endless suitors anymore."

"Huh? Is there anyone else who dares to plot against you?" Xu Luo raised his eyebrows and said.

"Wei Xiang has been actively running around recently. He wants to propose marriage to his son. My father is also a little disturbed, so he decided to send me to the sect?" Seventh princess said lightly, raised her head, beautiful Her eyes stared at Xu Luo: "No matter when, Qiqi is brother Xu Luo's. No one can change this!"

Xu Luo gently hugged the girl in his arms, was silent for a while, and said, "Shadow Luminous Mind Technique and Luminous Steps should be practiced diligently, so as not to be seen by others."

"En." The girl responded softly, leaning her head on Xu Luo's shoulder, and then said: "I heard that Phoenix has also left, you are so pitiful, and only sister Lianyi will be left by my side..."

The corners of Xu Luo's mouth twitched slightly. The few women who were close to him were all extremely intelligent women. Although they would not reveal anything on weekdays, such inadvertent mocking of him made him helpless. very.

"Hee hee, I won't mess with you anymore. He's leaving, remember to miss me. When I return from the school, you won't be defeated by Qi Qi!" The girl raised her head from Xu Luo's arms and said with a coquettish smile.

"Hmph, is your butt itchy?" Xu Luoxie smiled and looked at the girl.

"Ah, you're necrotic! It's so ugly! I won't play with you anymore..." The girl blushed and jumped away.

As if unwilling to let Xu Luo see the mist condensed in her eyes, the girl quickly disappeared from Xu Luo's sight without even turning her head.

Xu Luo stood in his small courtyard, stared blankly for a while, and then said lightly, "Aren't you tired after staying in the tree for so long? You don't need to be so shy as you have been neighbors for so long? If you want, you can Come here and sit down, I have... some good tea."

Whoosh whoosh!

Following Xu Luo's words, several figures jumped down from the surrounding trees.

A girl who looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate features and fair skin, and a smile in her two phoenix eyes, first said: "It seems that Xu Xuedi has discovered us a long time ago, and his skills are not bad!"

The other two young people in their 20s also had calm faces, and they didn't show any embarrassment at all because they were discovered.

"The spiritual sense is good." A tall and thin young man looked at Xu Luo and said, "My name is Xiahou Changyou."

"Lu Yu." The girl of eighteen or nineteen said.

"Tan Tai Ming Mie." The third handsome young man had a faint smile on his face, but when he looked carefully, there was no smile in his eyes, it seemed that the smile on his face was just a habit and politeness.

"Tan Tai Ming Mie... What a strange name." Xu Luo muttered inwardly, and then made a gesture of invitation to the three of them, letting them into his dormitory.

The three of them were not polite, and after they came in, they finished their work separately, and then watched Xu Luo make tea there.

"As expected of a son of a nobleman, he is so proficient in the tea ceremony." The young girl Lu Yu said with a smile, "No wonder the Seventh Princess likes you."

Xu Luo smiled slightly, and just about to speak, Xia Hou Changyou suddenly interrupted: "If she joins the sect, you may lose your chance, you should prevent her from entering the sect."

Tantai Mingmie also nodded at the side, and said: "That's right, the Seventh Princess is beautiful and extremely intelligent, but she doesn't know anything about the sect. Otherwise, I believe she would not be so happy to join the sect. "

Xu Luo poured tea for the three of them, and asked with a smile, "Could it be that the three seniors are from sects?"

"Sect?" Lu Yu and the other three shook their heads with a smile. Lu Yu said, "We are not from the sect."

Tantai Mingmie said: "It's just that I have some understanding of the sect."

Xiahou Changyou smiled: "The dominance of the sect is beyond your imagination. A woman like the Seventh Princess has entered, and there is no way she will be released easily..."

"I believe her." Xu Luo said lightly, unwilling to talk more about the Seventh Princess.

In Xu Luo's heart, he doesn't have any good feelings for the sects. His mother's sect, Fenghuang's sect, and now there is another Qiqi sect.

"Sooner or later, I will cross paths with these sects. If they dare not let Qiqi go, then they will grab it back." Xu Luo thought in his heart.

Lu Yu and the others only regarded Xu Luo's confidence in Xu Luo as young people who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, so they didn't say any more.

After drinking a cup of tea, they all bid farewell and left.

Tantai Mingmie walked at the end, when Xu Luo sent him out of the small courtyard, the handsome senior looked at Xu Luo meaningfully and said, "Young brother has a treasure hidden in his chest, in fact, the sect is nothing more than that, it's really nothing So scary."

Xu Luo smiled and said, "Thank you senior for your encouragement!"

Turning around and going back to the room, packing up and preparing to leave, there was another uninvited guest in the small courtyard.

This time, it was Zhou Liang, the dean who hadn't seen him for a long time.

"Hey, little guy, aren't you going to invite me in for a cup of tea?" The dean smiled and looked at Xu Luo.

"I always feel that you are an unexpected visitor..." Xu Luo muttered, and invited the dean into his dormitory.

"You kid, didn't you invite three uninvited guests just now? I'm the one missing?" Zhou Liang said meaningfully.

"Huh? Your Excellency is really powerful, and you can't hide anything from you." Xu Luo said.

"Don't run on me, kid. I just saw them leave when I came over. My old man doesn't have time to watch you every day."

"The dean knows the origins of the three of them?" Xu Luo was also somewhat curious about the identities of Lu Yu, Xiahou Changyou and Tantai Mingmiie.

"Those three little guys? I don't know, they are all very talented. Maybe they came out from some big sect to practice." Zhou Liang shrugged and said, "You also know that Zhenwu Academy never asks about their origins, even if they are Young people from the Korean Empire are here, and they are welcome."

"You are really free and easy." A smile appeared on the corner of Xu Luo's mouth. Isn't the Korean Empire the same country that the dean ran for thousands of miles back then, and caused all the chaos?

The country that is most ready to move now is also the Korean Empire.

"I came to you today to tell you one thing. You need to be mentally prepared." Zhou Liang ignored Xu Luo's teasing, and said seriously: "In the next year, a large number of your young children may be Leaving the campus early and entering the army. Let me ask you, after all, you are the only male left in your Xu family, if you don’t want to, I won’t force you.”

"Leaving the campus early and entering the army?" Xu Luo raised his head in surprise and looked at Zhou Liang: "Is there something wrong with the front line?"

"The Korean Empire suddenly increased its troops by 30 a few days ago, pushing them to the border in one fell swoop. The Southern Dayan Empire also increased its troops by 20 to station troops on the border. Some other small countries are also increasingly harassing the border."

Zhou Liang said solemnly: "The consequences of the failure of the Star Festival finally erupted in full force. War... may come at any time. Our Sky Kingdom has been peaceful and stable for too many years. No matter how powerful the empire is, it will decline one day, and what we have to do now The thing is to let this day come as late as possible."

"So... this is also an opportunity for young people to make contributions, right?" Xu Luo followed Zhou Liang's words and said something.

"Hehe, it's not impossible for you to think so. In fact, all the major families in the imperial capital may think so."

Zhou Liang looked at Xu Luo, and said seriously: "War is not a child's play. It is okay to go to the battlefield with the intention of making contributions, but if you want to regard this as a pure gold-plating journey, then... it may be a bamboo basket to fetch water." , in the end, if you don’t do it well, you will have to stay on the battlefield.”

Xu Luo nodded: "I understand, I promise you, I will go to the front line with my head, and I will come back with my head."

Zhou Liang smiled and said: "Sure enough, you are a child of the Xu family, and there are no cowards. In fact, I am also curious, how long can you continue to be like this little guy who has given us countless surprises in only half a year? "

"It will be a long time..." Xu Luo muttered a little uncertainly.

"It's nice to be young!" Zhou Liang smiled, and suddenly took out a sign from his pocket, and threw it to Xu Luo: "This time, you and some people went to the south, and this sign is my token. If you really can't get past the hurdle, take this sign and go to General Yuwen Shentong, he will help you."

"Why not General Xu Zhongtian?" Xu Luo understood the meaning when he heard that he was going to the south instead of the north to his father and elder brother.

It is a very sensitive matter that all three generals of one family gather together, and it will make people uneasy.

Even though Xu Su is currently in the north, he is not directly under the management of his father Xu Ji, but works under the account of another general.

"The place you went to this time is not the area guarded by Champion Hou, but the territory of General Yuwen Shentong. The situation there is not serious, so for you, it is more of a kind of experience.

When you get there, you young people who have never seen a battlefield or experienced a war, you can do everything for yourself. If you can use this brand, try not to use it. After Zhou Liang handed the sign to Xu Luo, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Not letting Xu Luo send it out, and walking to the door, Zhou Liang looked back at Xu Luo and finally said: "Don't get too close to the princes."

"Huh?" Xu Luo was slightly taken aback, but when he wanted to ask, he found that the dean had disappeared.
