The soldiers around him immediately became alert, and the air suddenly became more solemn and murderous. Their sharp eyes were fixed on the position of the figure, and their palms were placed on the position of the weapon. Li Hun narrowed his eyes, suddenly pulled out the big knife from his waist, rushed to the front, and asked them. "Who is coming?" Qingyun disintegrated into spiritual energy, and after it disappeared, two figures were revealed, which were Lin Chen and Li Yi. Li Yi saw this and quickly stood up, bowed and explained. "Father, it's me." "This is Master Lin of Lingyun Sect." Lin Chen also showed the inner disciple token on his waist, indicating that the other party should check it. Li Hun heard the words, looked at Lin Chen, and then looked at the token, and confirmed that it was correct.

He hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and saluted, and said respectfully.

"So it's Master Immortal. I'm sorry for offending you just now. Please don't blame me."

Lin Chen raised his hand and motioned the other party to stand up, saying in a calm voice.

"It's okay, General, there's no need to be polite. It's a mission, so it's good to be cautious."

Then, after scanning the circle, he found that there were hundreds of soldiers on the scene, and he was a little puzzled, so he asked.

"It's just that the mission stated that only one person was protected to go to Daxuanwang City. Why are there so many soldiers?"

Li Hun heard the words, hesitant, not knowing how to answer.

"This..."

Just when he was in trouble, a voice came from a carriage.

"I didn't expect that Master Lin would come for this mission. We are also destined to be together."

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing the figure of a young man, who was quite heroic.

Lin Chen looked at it carefully and said with some surprise.

"Mingyang County Magistrate?"

Along the way, Li Yi did not tell him the identity of the mission person, but just said that he would know when he arrived, so he did not ask much, but he did not expect it to be this person.

The young man smiled faintly and spoke to the other two people beside him.

"General Li Hun, you go down and prepare to set off first, I will talk to Master Lin alone."

"Yes."

After hearing this, Li Hun and Li Yi immediately retreated and called the soldiers to prepare to set off.

Lin Chen and Mingyang County Magistrate took two steps and came to the side.

After a moment of hesitation, the Mingyang County Magistrate slowly spoke.

"I am Yu Qiheng, the seventeenth prince of the Great Xuan Kingdom. My goal this time is to enter the royal city and inherit the throne. These are the secular forces escorting me to the royal city. They can handle the trivial matters on the way."

"But if there is any danger, or if the cultivators take action, I still have to rely on Master Lin."

"Seventeenth prince? Inherit the throne?"

"Will there be cultivators taking action?"

Lin Chen was a little surprised when he heard this, and was silent for a while, then asked back.

"Why are these things not marked in the mission, and which cultivators will take action?"

Yu Qiheng said.

"There are still several other princes in the city. They don't want me to go back to inherit the throne, and they are likely to go to other immortal sects and invite immortal masters to stop me."

Lin Chen's eyes sank, and he didn't rush to speak.

Originally, he thought it was just a simple escort of a mortal. If so, as long as he took the other party on the cloud, he would arrive in a few days.

But now that he had to bring such a large group of people, he could only follow the car, and the speed was greatly slowed down.

Although the mission itself had no time limit, it would delay him from earning spirit stones, and there might be cultivators from other sects who would take action, so he was a little hesitant.

Seeing Lin Chen's expression, Yu Qiheng continued to increase the stakes and spoke.

"I am the heir designated by my father, and only I have the right to open the royal treasury."

"As long as Master Lin can safely send me to the gate of the royal city, this mission will be completed, and an additional 200 spirit stones will be given as a reward."

After hearing this, Lin Chen thought about it for a while and nodded in agreement.

"In that case, Lin will accept it."

After all, the mission had been accepted, and he had spent ten spirit stones, plus there would be another reward after the escort was successful, so he naturally agreed.

If there were any cultivators from other sects, it would be a good opportunity to test the power of his mountain-driving whip.

Yu Qiheng heard this, his eyes lit up, and he bowed his hands to thank him.

"Okay, thank you, Master Lin."

After that, the two returned to the team, and Lin Chen was arranged to rest in the carriage near Yu Qiheng.

The group of hundreds of people continued on their way.

After Lin Chen got on the carriage, he sat cross-legged. Only the sound of the carriage and horses moving could be heard outside, but no one could hear him.

When anyone spoke, the silence was a little scary.

This shows the iron-blooded and serious nature of this army.

The group took the main roads along the way and tried to avoid some remote paths, so there was no trouble.

They could travel about a hundred miles a day.

But sometimes, the road was rugged and it was inevitable to cross some mountain roads.

On the third day, it was already dusk, but there were still dozens of miles to the next post station.

The team was now near a mountain range.

In desperation, they had to set up camp in the wild.

As the saying goes, don't enter the forest. For safety reasons, the team set up camp on the edge of the jungle. The surrounding field of vision was wide, and it was impossible to sneak attack.

Hundreds of soldiers were busy setting up tents next to the jungle. All the tents here were the same, and no one would know which tent the seventeenth prince Yu Qiheng was hiding in.

Lin Chen stood on the edge of the jungle, looking at the busy soldiers.

Soon, a simple camp was set up, and soldiers were sent out to guard the camp.

In the middle of the camp, piles of dry firewood were piled up, which illuminated the camp and could also be used to deter wild beasts in the wild.

Some soldiers who went out also quickly returned, catching some rabbits and pheasants in their hands.

After cleaning, a big pot was set up in the camp to cook a pot of meat soup. Many soldiers ate dry food and drank meat soup to restore their strength.

Li Hun came over and handed Lin Chen a bowl of meat soup and two big cakes.

"Master Lin, do you need to eat something?"

Lin Chen shook his head and said.

"I have already fasted, and I don't need these grains."

Li Hun chuckled and complimented.

"Master Lin has a profound cultivation. I wonder if you can check the surroundings to see if anyone is spying?"

Lin Chen heard this and put his two fingers together, condensed a little fire spirit power, and wiped it on his eyes. Suddenly, a little red light flashed in his eyes.

He looked around, and some light red scenes appeared in his eyes. It was a small magic of fire attribute, called Fire Eyes, which could detect scenes within a hundred feet.

After scanning the circle, he spoke.

"I didn't find anyone else, but for safety reasons, it's better for the seventeenth prince to live in two adjacent tents with me."

Li Hun naturally agreed.

"Master, you are right. I wonder which tent Master Lin likes."

Lin Chen casually scanned the surroundings and pointed to a tent on the right.

"Choose this one."

Li Hun replied immediately.

"Okay, I will arrange it right away and report to His Highness by the way."
