Mantu Villa.

Wang Yuyan and Azhu were competing, and they stopped when they had enough.

Both of them learned martial arts from diaries. Ah Zhu's martial arts talent cannot compare to Wang Yuyan's.

With Wang Yuyan's guidance, Ah Zhu's martial arts improved a lot.

Besides, they have been staying in Mantuo Villa for a while and are very bored, so they usually spend time discussing with each other.

The two of them discussed for a while and then stopped.

Ah Zhu took a deep breath and said, "You seemed absent-minded just now. Were you thinking about Brother Lu?"

When the competition just started, Ah Zhu noticed that Wang Yuyan was a little absent-minded. If she hadn't noticed it and stopped in time, she would have been hurt.

It would be very dangerous if you lose focus when fighting an enemy.

Wang Yuyan snorted, "I didn't."

"You still say no? If I hadn't reacted quickly and stopped in time, I would have hit your vitals."

Ah Zhu said unhappily.

She had been with Wang Yuyan for many years and knew her quite well, so she knew that she must be missing Lu Chen.

Wang Yuyan blushed slightly and said, "I was just distracted for a moment, I wasn't thinking about him."

Ah Zhu shook her head slightly: "I don't know how Lu Chen is doing now. He should be in the capital now."

"He should be back soon."

Wang Yuyan whispered.

Just then, a middle-aged woman came over here with a group of maids.

Wang Yuyan saw the person coming and bowed slightly: "Mother."

Ah Zhu also bowed and said, "Greetings, Madam."

This middle-aged woman is none other than the owner of Mantuo Villa, Mrs. Wang.

Due to the great improvement in her skills, Mrs. Wang's skin became more delicate than before.

Madam Wang just nodded slightly and said, "Pack up, we are going to the capital."

"what--"

Wang Yuyan and Ah Zhu both showed surprised expressions.

Madam Wang said, "Someone from the Six Gates came just now. They received a message from the capital. Lu Chen asked us to go to the capital now."

"Mother, why would Lu Chen ask us to go to the capital?"

Although Wang Yuyan wanted to see Lu Chen very much, Mantuo Villa was quite nice, and she was reluctant to leave suddenly.

"The letter said that Murong Bo and Murong Fu are likely to use us to deal with him, so they asked us to go to the capital first and come back when it is safe."

Mrs. Wang explained.

"Uncle wants to use us to deal with Lu Chen?"

Wang Yuyan found it hard to believe.

Madam Wang disagreed and said in a deep voice, "I know Murong Bo best. He is ruthless and can do anything to restore his so-called Great Yan. Let alone our relationship, even if he is his biological son, he has not seen him for so many years."

"If he gets desperate, there's no guarantee that he won't attack us, so Lu Chen is right. We still have to be careful."

"Pack your things. People from the Six Gates will come to protect us as we head to the capital."

"Yes, mother."

Wang Yuyan heard her mother's serious tone and knew the urgency of the situation, so she nodded immediately.

At the same time, Murong Longcheng suddenly came out and came in front of Murong Bo.

Murong Bo has been entertaining King Zuo Wu, but King Zuo Wu is also an old fox. How could he easily hand over his power before seeing the benefits?

"Ancestor, you are out of seclusion."

Murong Bo was surprised to see the ancestor appear and hurried to pay his respects.

"I heard that you are trying to win over King Zuo Wu?"

Murong Longcheng asked.

Murong Bo said in a deep voice: "Although King Zuo Wu's martial arts are useless, he is a member of the royal family after all, and he still has some power in his hands. If we can obtain his power, it will be very helpful for restoring the foundation of Great Yan."

"You did the right thing, but King Zuo Wu is not so easy to deal with. We need to put in a lot of effort on him."

Murong Longcheng said.

"Ancestor, the reason you are leaving the retreat this time is..."

Murong Longcheng said solemnly: "When I was in seclusion, I suddenly sensed a terrifying aura in the capital. I suspect someone has broken through to the realm of life and death."

Murong Bo's expression changed, and he asked in surprise: "Grandmaster, do you mean that Lu Chen has broken through the realm of life and death?"

"It's not impossible."

Murong Longcheng's expression became more serious. "Lu Chen's rise to power is too fast. He must have some secrets that we don't know. He is difficult to deal with. To ensure the success of the plan, you should kidnap the people around him. With these bargaining chips, it will be much easier to deal with him."

"I understand, Old Ancestor. I will go to Mantuo Villa to arrest him now."

Murong Bo said seriously that although the ancestor did not say it explicitly, Murong Bo knew that the people the ancestor wanted him to capture were Madam Wang and Wang Yuyan.

Murong Longcheng nodded in satisfaction, and then asked, "What did Shaolin Temple say?"

"Replying to the ancestor, the Shaolin Temple has responded. They agree to help us deal with Lu Chen and can also help us restore our great cause in secret, but they have a condition."

Murong Bo said respectfully.

"What conditions?"

"After the success, Shaolin Temple will be made the state religion."

Upon hearing this, Murong Longcheng snorted coldly and said, "Shaolin Temple has great ambitions. They actually want to become the state religion."

After a pause, he continued, "However, it is not a bad idea to agree to their request. The Shaolin Temple is very powerful. With their help, it will be easier for us to succeed. It's just a state religion. Just give it to them. The first priority now is to get rid of Lu Chen, the stumbling block."

Murong Longcheng said seriously.

"Don't worry, Grandpa. I'll send someone there right away. No, I'll let Fu'er go there in person."

Murong Bodao.

After Murong Longcheng left, Murong Bo called Murong Fu over and asked him to take people to capture Madam Wang and Wang Yuyan.

Murong Fu asked in confusion: "Father, why did you arrest them?"

Murong Bo glanced at him and said calmly, "This is an order from the ancestor. The ancestor suspects that Lu Chen is very likely to have broken through the realm of life and death. This makes the ancestor feel nervous. The ancestor hopes that Lu Chen will be cautious."

"But……"

"There is no but. People who have achieved great things do not care about trivial matters. Besides, I didn't ask you to kill them. I just asked you to invite them over. After dealing with Lu Chen, I will naturally let them go."

Murong Bo said seriously.

Murong Fu nodded helplessly, and then personally led dozens of masters to Mantuo Villa.

He was very familiar with Mantuo Villa and reached it easily. However, what surprised him was that Mantuo Villa had no defense at all.

When I entered Mantuo Villa, I found that it was already empty.

"Has the news leaked?"

Murong Fu was surprised. How could it be possible? They had already left when he just arrived. How could the news leak out? He was puzzled.
