"Changqing, come, come, come."

"Why have you never told me that Mr. Gao is your grandmaster?"

"We are one family."

The Holy Emperor's hearty voice rang out.

Li Rui blinked.

First, he looked at his grandmaster, then looked at the Holy Emperor and Gu Changsheng beside him.

This grandmaster of his rarely went out, and he never expected him to come to the Ding Mountain villa today.

The gazes of the three fell on him.

And so.

Li Rui first bowed respectfully to Gao Tianxia: "Disciple's disciple Li Rui, pays respects to Grandmaster."

Then he said: "Greetings, Your Majesty, Lord Gu."

Regarding Li Rui bowing to Gao Tianxia first.

There was not the slightest displeasure in the Holy Emperor's eyes.

According to ancestral ritual and law, filial piety comes first; a master is like a parent, and a grandmaster is naturally equivalent to a real grandfather; not bowing would be a lack of virtue.

Not to mention, Gao Tianxia was the only Heavenly Human Realm figure in the world.

Compared to him, this emperor, his status was even higher.

Gu Changsheng spoke at the right time: "Brother Li, Mr. Gao cares about you, his disciple's disciple, and came all the way from East Sea City; he originally didn't want to enter the mountain, but was dragged here by me."

Li Rui's heart warmed.

He was still guessing why his grandmaster, who had spent most of his life in East Sea City, had suddenly come to Ding Mountain.

It wasn't for the emperor.

But for him, his disciple's disciple.

In other words.

In Gao Tianxia's eyes, the weight of this disciple's disciple of his was higher than the Holy Emperor's.

This protective spirit was truly likable.

Li Rui stood behind Gao Tianxia consciously and did not sit down.

This was the rule that a disciple's disciple should have.

If the grandmaster is present, and he sits on equal footing with the grandmaster, what kind of system is that?

Only when the disciple's disciple respects the grandmaster will the grandmaster think more of the disciple's disciple.

If Li Rui didn't even understand this principle, he would have walked the Jianghu in vain.

Those who always want to be on equal footing with their elders and rack their brains to surpass their elders won't go far.

Gao Tianxia: "I hope Your Majesty will take care of this disciple's disciple of mine who serves in the court."

Hearing Gao Tianxia call him "Your Majesty."

Great joy appeared in the Holy Emperor's eyes.

Gao Tianxia saying this naturally couldn't be out of fear of the court's power, but to pave the way for his disciple's disciple.

"Bi" is the step of the imperial palace.

The minister is below the palace steps, and the emperor is above the steps.

The status of superior and inferior is clear at a glance.

That's why there is the term "Your Majesty."

Gao Tianxia, as a Heavenly Human Realm figure, is a person who stands on the steps just like him; the reason he is willing to call him "Your Majesty" is for Li Rui's sake.

It's roughly the same meaning as calling oneself "this humble person."

The Holy Emperor wouldn't feel that he was going to suppress this East Sea City Lord.

And as long as he can win over this Heavenly Human Realm figure, the Yu Kingdom's court is willing to exhaust everything.

Before.

Although this East Sea City Lord was a guest minister of the court's secret guards, it was because both sides had a common enemy.

The Holy Emperor had never seen Gao Tianxia.

Gao Tianxia had never been to the capital.

But now with Li Rui as a bridge, the two had the opportunity to meet.

"Changqing is a pillar of the court; it is I who need to rely on him more. Mr. Gao need not worry about Changqing in the capital."

The Holy Emperor called him Changqing one after another.

He even rarely used "Zhen" (I, the emperor), but changed it to "I."

Since Gao Tianxia called him "Your Majesty," if he still insisted on calling himself "Zhen" at this time, he would be too lacking in discernment.

Not bad.

Compared to his ancestors, this Holy Emperor now knows better what the vast sky and sea are, and is more willing to bow his body.

In the cultivation world, strength is respected.

Even an emperor of an immortal dynasty must bow when meeting someone stronger than himself.

The emperor is not supreme.

Strength is.

Just as the Holy Emperor wanted to speak, Gao Tianxia suddenly snorted coldly.

Then.

An old Confucian scholar in a corner of the dense forest outside Ding Mountain let out a muffled groan.

Gu Changsheng stood up with a "whoosh."

He had already reacted; it was Gao Tianxia who noticed someone spying, and if he wasn't mistaken, that person must be Huang Longzi.

Just as he wanted to chase.

He heard Gao Tianxia speak: "That person has already gone far, no need to chase."

Hearing this.

Gu Changsheng sat down again.

He was also shocked by Gao Tianxia's ability.

'The Heavenly Human Realm is truly formidable.'

Separated by a hundred miles, he could seriously injure a Land Immortal with a single thought.

Truly domineering.

The Holy Emperor spoke: "Mr. Gao, what do you think of this Huang Longzi?"

Gao Tianxia said indifferently: "Your Majesty, I once told Changsheng that this world is still quite good, so I don't want it to change; it was like this before, and it is still like this now."

Hearing this, a heavy stone in the Holy Emperor's heart finally landed completely.

Back then.

It was Gao Tianxia who took action and killed the exiled immortals of the world until they didn't dare to show their faces.

Only then was there a hundred years of peace.

If Gao Tianxia's mind changed, it would be a calamity for the Yu Kingdom.

Coming to Ding Mountain this time.

It was called offering sacrifices to heaven, but in fact, it was for these words of Gao Tianxia.

Even if Gao Tianxia didn't come to Ding Mountain today, he would have personally made a trip to East Sea City.

This matter was the most important for the Yu Kingdom.

Gao Tianxia's attitude determined the direction of the world in a certain sense.

Afterward.

Gao Tianxia stayed in the villa for a stick of incense.

The tea was finished.

He also stood up to leave.

Li Rui sent his grandmaster down Ding Mountain, and along the way, Gao Tianxia didn't say anything.

Until they reached the foot of the mountain.

Gao Tianxia looked at Li Rui: "You have done very well; you must not be lazy in practicing martial arts in the future, at least three times a day; laziness leads to slowness; of course, don't make it too bitter for yourself; your grandmaster is here, so I can't let you suffer any grievances."

"Yes, disciple's disciple will keep Grandmaster's teachings in mind."

"Good, very good."

Gao Tianxia revealed a satisfied smile.

If this scene were seen by those few people in East Sea City.

They would surely be shocked until their jaws dropped.

Gao Tianxia had always had the attitude of a strict master toward them.

Let alone concern, they hadn't even heard a word of praise in a hundred years.

No wonder they say the generation between is close.

It seems those things about being scolded were all borne by Li Rui's senior uncles whom he had never met.

After speaking.

Gao Tianxia took a step.

And then vanished instantly.

It is estimated that he had already arrived at East Sea City.

A corner of the Northern Plains.

Two figures appeared out of thin air on the desolate ice sheet.

"So strong!"

He Jiuxuan only felt lingering fear.

Just now, he was also in the mountain forest outside Ding Mountain; Gao Tianxia's intent was not only aimed at Huang Longzi, but also at him.

That instant.

He truly felt the threat of death.

"Senior Uncle, why is that Gao Tianxia so formidable?"

He came from the Wan Fadian; it wasn't that he hadn't seen powerhouses in the Heavenly Human Realm take action, and his master was even a Heavenly Human Realm figure.

But that Gao Tianxia had only just entered the Heavenly Human Realm, yet his momentum was even above his master's.

It was completely unreasonable!

Huang Longzi still had an indifferent look, and he spoke slowly: "Time comes, heaven and earth all exert force; he is the first Heavenly Human Realm figure of this Small Grotto-Heaven, a person who has broken the limit, so the fortune he obtained naturally won't be little."

"And with this person's talent, he will only be more stunning when he goes to the cultivation world."

"Jiuxuan, you must cultivate well."

"The road has already been walked by others, and those who come after can walk it much more easily."

"We should thank City Lord Gao."

He Jiuxuan blinked.

He suddenly thought of someone: "Senior Uncle, that... that person named Li Rui?"

Huang Longzi turned to look at He Jiuxuan with a smile that was not a smile: "Are you referring to the Great Dao of Azure Profundity?"

He Jiuxuan nodded decisively.

Immunity to all evil.

He admitted that Li Rui could be counted as his opponent.

"If you want to take action, I can help you cover it up."

Hearing Huang Longzi agree.

He Jiuxuan was overjoyed.

"Senior Uncle, rest assured, in this struggle of the Great Dao, the one who walks to the end will surely be me!"
