Feitian Sect is located on a lush mountain peak two hundred miles outside Yujing City.

There are many peaks around, one after another, stretching seemingly endlessly. Each mountain is lush and green, and the cold winter has not damaged their vitality.

The many strange trees Chu Zhiyuan saw were different from the trees he saw in Yujing City or Yaoyue Palace.

These trees are similar to pine trees, but are taller and stronger than pine trees, with straight roots rising into the sky.

Chu Zhiyuan rode a white horse, followed by Huang Cheng and Zou Fang. In addition to the two, there were four red-robed eunuchs.

Eighteen guards were all guards of the Forbidden Palace. Among them were four grand masters and fourteen ancestors. Chu Zhiyuan sat on the horse, looked at the mountain peaks in front of him, and said with a smile: "Have Huang Zhongshi been here before?"

"I've been here a few times." Huang Cheng said with a smile: "These Feitian Sect members are all a bit straight-minded, and it's also due to their martial arts. Their sword skills are about being straight to the point, so there's no need to be too tactful when talking to them, and there's no need to beat around the bush. , whatever is the best thing to say.”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Isn't it easier to get along with such a person?"

Huang Cheng laughed and said, "Sometimes it's quite irritating. His words are too straightforward and hurtful." Chu Zhiyuan was surprised: "They still dare to say unpleasant things to you, Huang Zhongji?"

"It is inevitable that there will be some complaints, and it is not appropriate for a servant to pass them on to the Emperor after hearing them. Alas... it will be embarrassing."

"The Feitian Sect is quite dissatisfied with the imperial court?"

"They think the court interferes too much. They want more freedom and don't want quota restrictions.

"Want more disciples to join the Zhenwu Division?"

"Sect Master Lu doesn't want so many disciples to enter the Zhenwu Division." Chu Zhiyuan was curious: "How can we improve if we don't enter the Zhenwu Division?"

He originally thought that the Feitian Sect was complaining that there were too few places in the Zhenwu Division and there were not enough places for the disciples.

The result was just the opposite. He thought there were too many places and didn't want so many disciples to enter the Zhenwu Division. "Sect Master Lu believes in practicing without any external objects, and it is purely self-study and self-realization."

Chu Zhiyuan asked curiously: "If they don't want to enter the Zhenwu Division, will the imperial court force them to enter?"

Huang Cheng said: "The annual quota for the Zhenwu Division is divided equally among the four sects. If the Feitian Sect doesn't want it, then it will be given to the other three sects. But there are three sects again, so it is difficult to separate them."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "It is indeed troublesome to divide it evenly among the three sects."

Huang Cheng shook his head: "And once the rules are formed on this matter, if the Feitian Sect wants it again in the future, will it be given or not?... Then it will inevitably be a mess. It is best to follow the rules and keep them."

"Rules..." Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "You should indeed abide by the rules. The Feitian Sect must abide by the rules of the Feitian Sect, and the Zhenwu Division must abide by the rules of the Zhenwu Division."

The Zhenwu Division has a transcendent status and is under the jurisdiction of the emperor.

The emperor issued orders directly to the Zhenwu Division without having to go through various government offices.

The Zhenwu Division was not subject to the various government offices in the imperial court, but it usually worked with the Zongwu Division to help manage martial arts affairs.

The Zongwu Division is responsible for civil affairs, and the Zhenwu Division is responsible for military affairs. Each of them performs his or her own duties.

Zongwusi can handle the affairs of various martial arts sects, but Zongwusi has no power to handle matters involving Zhenwusi.

Therefore, I have no way to interfere in this matter.

He put aside his thoughts and said with a smile: "I wonder if I can meet this Sect Leader Lu this time?"

"Sect Master Lu wants to welcome the imperial edict."

While the two were talking, they saw a group of people floating down the mountain in a mighty manner.

A blue stone step goes straight up to the top of the mountain. These Feitian Sect disciples are wearing green robes, tapping their toes on the step, like pieces of feathers floating down.

After a while, we arrived at the foot of the mountain.

The middle-aged man in front of him was a handsome middle-aged man with a face like a crown jewel and an elegant demeanor. Chu Zhiyuan was surprised.

Judging from his appearance and temperament, he is indeed not a crazy person, but a person with clear eyes and a clear mind.

Is it because people cannot be judged by their appearances, or is there some secret behind them?

Lu Donghu smiled and clasped his fists from a distance: "Haha..., the angel is coming, Lu is coming from afar, please forgive me!"

Huang Cheng took a step back, highlighting Chu Zhiyuan. Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists and smiled: "Master Lu, Mr. Chu was ordered to announce the decree. The emperor's grandfather was extremely satisfied with the performance of the disciples of your sect in the Zhenwu Division. The disciples of your sect were helpless in the face of the masters of the evil sect. Even though he was afraid, the emperor's grandfather was also filled with admiration and gave him a special commendation."

As he spoke, he uncovered the yellow silk from the sandalwood tray held by a red-robed eunuch and handed over the imperial edict.

"Since my disciple has entered the Zhenwu Division, he should fulfill his duties faithfully, as it should be. Your Majesty has commended you."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Not everyone who enters the Zhenwu Division is as loyal and upright as the disciples of your sect."

He still has a good impression of Feitian Sect disciples.

Among the four major sects of the Zhenwu Division, the disciples of the Feitian Sect have the lowest sense of existence, but the most painful and tiring work often falls on them.

They don't care and work hard without complaining.

As for the other four major sects, the same is true for Dalingyan Peak. Baiyun Sword Palace is better at using their brains and more clever, while Qingluya disciples seem a bit mediocre.

"The prince is...?" Lu Donghu hesitated.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Chu Zhiyuan, ranked fourth."

"..Fourth Prince, you are disrespectful and disrespectful." Lu Donghu immediately clasped his fists and said: "The name of the Fourth Prince is as loud as thunder in my ears. Now that I can see your face, I am indeed the Fourth Prince!"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and waved his hand: "Sect Master Lu, thank you for the reward, it's just good luck." "Your Majesty, please, Lord Huang, please."

Lu Donghu smiled and invited.

Chu Zhiyuan saw that he acted calmly and had no objection to him, so he knew that he was not as reckless as he thought.

He is such a straightforward person. When he hears his name, his color will change immediately.

Even if there is no embarrassment, there will still be something strange.

But there is no change in Ludong Lake. It seems that it has never refused to watch the Heavenly Sword. This is not something ordinary people can do.

Everyone climbed up the steps and came to a large hall halfway up the mountain, which was the Guest Hall. Chu Zhiyuan sat at the table in the main hall, took the tea cup, took a sip and looked around. Sitting in the main hall, the curtains had been raised. , you can see the lush mountain peaks, and the view is broad and bright.

Chu Zhiyuan put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "The most attractive thing about Feitian Sect is the Heavenly Sword. It's a pity that outsiders can't see it. Master Lu, do you know where the Heavenly Sword is?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Lu Donghu smiled and clasped his fists: "The Heavenly Sword requires disciples of our sect to realize it. This is a rule set by our ancestors."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and nodded: "The rules must be followed and cannot be broken at will, otherwise the majesty of the sect will be lost."

Lu Donghu smiled and said: "The reason why we had this rule in the first place was not because our sect was stingy, but to save us from trouble."

"What's the trouble?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Lu Donghu said: "If you have not practiced our sect's mind method, you will be attacked by the heavenly sword if you get close to it. It is an attack comparable to that of a great master. Under a great master, you are almost certain to die."

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly realized: "So it turns out that I have misunderstood Sect Master Lu."

If I had seen the silver-sheathed sword before, I would have been dubious about his statement.

After seeing the long sword with a silver scabbard, I knew how powerful the sword was, so I didn't find it strange that the Heavenly Sword had such power.

Seeing him like this, Lu Donghu was a little surprised, thinking that Chu Zhiyuan would not believe it. But looking at Chu Zhiyuan's appearance, he already believed it.

"As for the Heavenly Sword Pavilion, there is actually no sword." Lu Donghu continued to explain: "The great masters of all dynasties have abandoned their swords. The Heavenly Sword Pavilion is only a place for studying the Heavenly Sword. Our sect does not have the sword of a great master. "

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Isn't it a pity to abandon the sword after practicing it for so long?"
