Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 259 A Net of Heaven and Earth is Spreads Across the Capital

Immediately afterwards, the carriage slowly began to move.

There were four people in the car at the moment. Chi Yanfei and Xiao Si were holding Zhou Heng hostage.

Xiong Er sat outside, cracking his whip and urging the horse forward at full speed.

After they left, Chen Qingxuan peeked out and discovered that they had already arrived at an abandoned house outside Andu City.

"You idiot, I've already left the city through the secret passage. Come here."

Chen Qingxuan's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

After leaving the city and bidding farewell to Na Muzheng, he hopped on a motorcycle at the foot of the city wall and headed towards the capital.

Meanwhile, inside Zhou Heng's carriage...

Zhou Heng looked at Chi Yanfei in front of him and weakly called out, "Royal Uncle!"

"Haha, Imperial Uncle, how long has it been since I heard that call? You must have been only six or seven years old when I left."

"It's a pity, you're a good kid, but your mistake is that you don't have a good father!"

Chi Yanfei looked at Zhou Heng and said with a smile.

“Uncle, the people of Great Xia are now living in peace and prosperity. Although there are natural disasters, at least there have been no large-scale rebellions. As an imperial family, the purpose of my Zhou family is to be responsible for the world. Why are you so obsessed with the throne?”

"Look at my father, the emperor, toiling away every day, constantly worrying. Is the throne really that good?"

Seeing that Chi Yanfei remained silent, Zhou Heng began to persuade him.

Chi Yanfei looked at Zhou Heng with some surprise.

She thought to herself that Zhou Shixun and she didn't get along, but he had a son who seemed alright.

What surprised him even more was that this kid was now a prisoner.

He still maintained a calm and composed demeanor; such composure is truly admirable.

If Zhou Heng knew what Chi Yanfei was thinking, he'd probably curse in his heart.

This was the first time in Zhou Heng's life that someone had held a long sword to his neck.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't afraid. When those towering bear-like people charged at me, I was almost scared to death.

"Alright, put down your sword, Xiao Si, he can't escape."

Chi Yanfei turned to Xiao Si and said.

Xiao Si was somewhat dazed, because she was sitting right next to Zhou Heng.

Therefore, there's always a vague feeling that Zhou Heng has a familiar aura about him.

It's as if they're naturally approachable.

After breaking free of his restraints, Zhou Heng twisted his neck and looked at the girl named Xiao Si.

From the side, Zhou Heng already understood most of it.

This must be the little princess that the Emperor mentioned, the one whose mother was killed and who was kidnapped by Chi Yanfei, also known as Zhou Shiji.

Perhaps it was due to their bloodline, but Zhou Heng also sensed a familiar aura.

And her profile, though faint, bears a resemblance to her father.

But he only glanced at it before turning his head away to look at Chi Yanfei without making a sound.

This is not the time to reveal the truth.

Whether this young lady believed it or not, there was a monster that looked like a bear outside the carriage.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became awkward.

Seeing this, Zhou Heng closed his eyes and quietly considered a solution.

Previously, it was said that she would use herself as bait to lure the imperial uncle and the girl beside him to the capital.

But now there are two more people from the Great Bear Kingdom.

Although I haven't seen the other one, my sworn brother said it's even more powerful than the one outside.

Among the experts in the capital, only Zhu Liuxiang had reached the tenth-grade grandmaster level.

Can Eunuch Wei and Daoist Qingxuan withstand the warrior from the Great Bear Kingdom outside?

Although his sworn brother possessed incredible skills with hidden weapons, some people with strong physical bodies could actually achieve invulnerability to blades and spears.

And this fourth one, now that we've basically confirmed her identity, we absolutely must not harm her.

Therefore, it's difficult to strike a balance. Judging from Xiao Si's attitude towards Chi Yanfei, it's probably hard for her to believe that the person she has followed for many years is actually her mother's killer.

I continued walking and thinking along the way.

Chu Chen, on the other hand, took Chen Qingxuan with him, riding an off-road motorcycle and taking a shortcut towards the capital.

How could his carriage possibly withstand the speed of this motorcycle?

Besides, taking a shortcut is much faster.

That night, Chu Chen brought Chen Qingxuan to the gates of the capital.

Without taking a break, the two drove straight to the palace.

Compared to the outside of the capital, the palace seemed much safer.

The Tongtian Divine Sect has a large number of followers; heaven knows how many people Chi Yanfei has arranged outside the capital.

He actually managed to expose himself and use Zhou Heng to threaten Zhou Shixun into stepping down.

Then there's no way there wouldn't be a plan.

Moreover, Zhou Shixun had previously ordered the arrest of this Tongtian Divine Cult member, namely the one with the sun tattoo on the back of his neck.

However, the results were not satisfactory.

Those people vanish as soon as there's the slightest disturbance.

It is estimated that by now, there are quite a few Tongtian Cult members mixed in with the capital city.

In fact, Chu Chen's guess was correct.

Long before the Crimson Swallow flew to Great Xia, almost every branch in every city was ready to go.

After they entered Andu, Chi Yanfei ostensibly ordered Xiao Si to lie low.

But there was another order: to gather in the capital city slowly by various means.

Their purpose was to kidnap Zhou Heng and bring him to the capital, where they would enter the palace, where all these people would be exposed.

But Zhou Shixun was well aware of these things.

On the surface, the entire capital city appeared to be operating as usual.

But secretly, the number of soldiers on the city wall had already doubled, and nearly three soldiers were equipped with a crossbow.

Leaving aside the soldiers who have gone to the far north, the capital city is currently well-equipped with troops.

Furthermore, there's the entire palace, and Zhou Shixun's ten thousand secret guards. If something were to happen to Zhou Shixun, all ten thousand of them could rush in and wear down even a grandmaster.

Chi Yanfei's fighting style was different from that of the previous three major families. Since he had Zhou Heng in his hands, he planned to use his superior martial prowess to directly enter the palace and coerce Zhou Shixun.

The followers of the Tongtian Divine Cult merely harassed the city's guards outside, preventing them from returning to their base.

Three days later, a man led a group of people in a caravan of merchant carriages and successfully entered the capital.

If Qingshan had been there at that time, he would definitely have gone up to greet the man properly.

That's right, he is Feng Xiuyuan, the head of Andu Hall.

After Feng Xiuyuan's caravan entered the capital, it hurriedly headed towards a group of houses.

Once inside the courtyard, people instantly emerged from all sorts of places inside the carriages.

Such incidents were happening all over the capital.

Not long after Feng Xiuyuan and his group went inside.

Zhou Heng's carriage slowly drove towards the distance behind them.

Fang Shuzhen, who was temporarily assigned to guard the city gate, recognized him instantly.

Following Chu Chen's instructions, he picked up a black lump in front of him and pressed a button.

"Attention everyone, they're coming!"
