Chapter 145: The current Emperor is the supreme master of the Tian Ce Dynasty

~19 min read 3,653 words

As soon as Li Chen arrived near Huju City, he saw that the surrounding walls were tall and majestic, like a natural barrier.

According to Wu Nanzhi's introduction, this wall was cast from thousand-year mysterious iron wire mixed with rare stones, and after the baptism of time, it was still as solid as ever.

On the city walls, runes flickered, flowing with mysterious aura; that was the powerful formation silently operating, guarding this city located near the Azure Dragon Mountain Range.

After entering the city, one could see streets crisscrossing, buildings standing in great numbers, flying eaves and upturned corners, in good order.

The city had a population of one million; besides local residents, there were cultivators from all walks of life, merchants, and many adventure teams from other places.

They traded spiritual herbs, pills, magic treasures, animal skins, etc., here.

The Azure Dragon Mountain Range was full of treasures everywhere.

Wu Nanzhi, as a local, began to introduce the origin of this city to Li Chen.

To put it bluntly, it was boasting about how awesome her family was; at first, there were only three major families here, relying on the mountains to eat mountains and the water to eat water.

But this place was truly a treasure land of wind and water, and the three major families also began to grow slowly.

As more and more people came to explore from the outside, the three major families also started businesses, and then branched out.

After thousands of years of development, it formed such a scale.

During this period, it was inevitable that there would be various struggles; whether it was monster beasts attacking the city or challenges from other families, the Wu family repeatedly turned danger into safety and saved the people from disaster.

It could be said that the Wu family was the pillar here, supporting a piece of sky.

Without the Wu family, Huju City would have been finished long ago!

As a disciple of the Wu family, Wu Nanzhi spoke these words logically.

As for the other two families, Wu Nanzhi didn't mention a word.

Li Chen even suspected whether what she said was the family motto of the Wu family, something every disciple had to memorize.

However, for thousands of years, most of the city lords were served by people from the Wu family, which was enough to prove that the Wu family still had a certain authority here.

The two came to the city area, and many onlookers appeared nearby.

Li Chen glanced at Wu Nanzhi and teased: "Yo, I didn't expect Miss Wu to be quite famous here."

Hearing the flattery, Wu Nanzhi straightened her waist and said with a crooked mouth: "That is, in any case, I am also the existence pursued by thousands of people in Huju City; you have earned it this time!"

Seeing the amiable elders and fellow villagers, Wu Nanzhi felt at ease in her heart.

It was still better at home; in the Imperial Capital, where dragons and snakes were hidden, she was just a small transparent person.

Feeling these gazes, Wu Nanzhi knew that the fellow villagers were about to start talking about her deeds!

Say it quickly, say it quickly, let Li Chen know how popular I am in Huju City!

But the next words of the passersby almost made Wu Nanzhi break her defense.

"Whose disciple is that, how can he be so handsome."

"What disciple, you don't have any vision; this is clearly a person from the Immortal Sect; the Wu family head broke through to the Sage Realm this time, and many hidden powerhouses came to congratulate."

"If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense; the attire of that young master clearly shows he is a powerful person from the Imperial Capital; I used to do business in the Imperial Capital."

"Old Wu Wu Laoyezi also has face; even the powerful from the Imperial Capital came; speaking of which, do people in the Imperial Capital grow so handsome?"

Hearing these discussions, Wu Nanzhi's small face turned red.

Even if she were shameless again, she wouldn't feel that the crowd of onlookers was talking about her.

Originally, she intended to let Li Chen know her reputation in Huju City, but she didn't expect that Li Chen gave her a lesson instead, telling her that as long as you are outstanding enough, you will shine wherever you are!

"What a bunch of superficial people, they only know how to look at the appearance, bah!"

Just now they were amiable elders and fellow villagers, but now Wu Nanzhi looked at them more and more displeased.

I thought you recognized me, but who knew not a single one recognized me; it really makes me angry!

Li Chen was used to this; to ease the embarrassment, he said: "Nanzhi, when will we arrive at your house? I'm a bit hungry."

Hearing Li Chen say he was hungry, this tone, Wu Nanzhi didn't know if Li Chen wanted to eat food or eat her; after all, she had promised everything this morning in order to catch up on the journey.

Thinking of this, her legs were trembling.

"Look, that is the location of my house." Wu Nanzhi pointed in one direction and said.

Li Chen looked in the direction she pointed; this should be the center of Huju City.

An ancient and solemn cultivation family mansion stood towering.

The big gate of the Wu family was carved from rare thousand-year ancient wood, and the door was carved with patterns of dragons and tigers, implying the prosperity and flourishing of the sect.

On both sides of the big gate stood two stone lion sculptures, with eyes wide open, as if they were alive.

Above the big gate hung a huge plaque, with the two big characters "Wu Family" engraved on the plaque.

Even before entering, one could see the buildings inside arranged in good order, layer upon layer.

The main building was even towering into the clouds, with carved beams and painted buildings, golden and brilliant.

On the flying eaves and upturned corners of the buildings hung various magic tools, including swords, bells, and tripods, all emitting different luster, showing the strength and foundation of the Wu family.

Outside the big gate, two rows of disciples were already standing, and guests were coming to congratulate the Wu family one after another.

In any case, they had arrived at their own door, and finally someone recognized Wu Nanzhi.

Only to see a young disciple run over and say: "Aunt, finally waited for you; the family head asked me to wait for you here, please come in; eh, who is this?"

This one looked a bit like Wu Qi, and was Wu Qi's clan brother Wu Xing.

Just as Wu Xing was about to stretch his head to look at Li Chen, he was twisted by Wu Nanzhi.

"Don't care who he is; you know your aunt is me! The two of us will go in ourselves; you go and greet other guests well."

In any case, they had arrived at their own home, and Wu Nanzhi didn't plan to expose Li Chen's identity for the time being.

She had her own plans; first introduce Li Chen to her father as her man, and then reveal Li Chen's identity as the Emperor, shocking the whole audience.

In any case, she also wanted to pretend to be big with Li Chen's identity! She also wanted to see the surprised expressions of her father and eldest brother.

Just at this time, a powerful Meridian Art fluctuation erupted in the inner courtyard of the Wu family.

Wu Nanzhi was very puzzled; who exactly dared to fight in the Wu family?

At this moment, in the main hall of the Wu family, two proud sons of heaven were fighting, as if competing for something.

Both were at the Observing Heaven Realm, but the momentum they fought out was several times stronger than ordinary Observing Heaven Realm.

Every move could erupt with a roar that shook the world!

A look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the surrounding guests; is this the person who possesses ancient inheritance? It is indeed extraordinary.

"Yiyu, your level is still fighting with me; you'd better go back and practice in seclusion."

The one who spoke was the God Child of the ancient sect, Lin Xun; the powerful foundation of the ancient sect was fully displayed on him, and all kinds of trump cards emerged one after another.

There were not many people in the world who could be called God Children, which was enough to see how strong his ability was.

"People with clear eyes can see that you are not my opponent, and you are still arguing."

Returning to Lin Xun was the ancient royal family member Yiyu, who possessed powerful bloodline power, was born different, and seized the creation of heaven and earth.

That was also an existence famous in one area.

The two fought back and forth, regardless of the outcome; the fluctuation just now was caused by them.

The reason why these two came here was to recruit the Wu family old master.

As long as a Sage Realm powerhouse appears, they will become the object of pursuit by major top forces.

According to them, the Golden Great World will appear, and by then the Immortal Road will open.

Ask, which Sage Realm powerhouse doesn't want to become an immortal, but how many can ascend to become an immortal?

Ascension is only possible for top Sage Realm powerhouses to succeed, and the Wu family old master can only barely become a Sage Realm powerhouse.

As Lin Xun, who possesses the powerful foundation of the ancient sect, his goal is to become an immortal.

He promised the Wu family old master that as long as the Wu family old master is loyal to protect him, when he reaches the Great Perfection of the Sage Realm, and waits for the Heavenly Opening Gate to open, which is the appearance of the High-Level Mystical Realm.

Then he will take the Wu family old master into the mystical realm, not only will he snatch an Immortal Fate for the Wu family old master, but also provide various resources to let the Wu family old master improve his strength.

With Lin Xun's ability, passing the trial of the Heavenly Opening Gate is certainly not a problem.

Immortal Fate is a necessary prop for opening ascension.

Hearing this, the Wu family old master was very tempted; with the help of the ancient sect, he would certainly go further in the Sage Realm.

Maybe he could really go to the legendary Immortal Realm and increase his longevity.

But just at this time, the ancient royal family's Yiyu also came here, and also recruited the Wu family old master for the same reason.

Being able to possess a Sage Realm powerhouse as a guard is comparable to a rare treasure.

Lin Xun heard this, and someone dared to compete with him? He was angry at the time.

As the God Child of the ancient sect, he never intended to let go of what he liked.

The ancient royal family's Yiyu was even more arrogant; he felt that not everyone was qualified to compete with him. The Wu family old master also began to hesitate about who to follow and who to bet on for more security.

Lin Xun and Yiyu couldn't talk to each other, so they had to see the truth under their hands.

So they fought until now.

There were not a few guests who came to participate in the Wu family banquet today; they were all regional powerhouses famous in the cultivation world.

The Wu family had a very high status in Huju City, and the Huju City Prefect and Lin Chengjian naturally arrived at the scene to congratulate.

The hundreds of onlookers were also very curious about who would win today.

However, there was one point that the guests were very clear about, which was that their talent was unquestionable and absolutely incomparable to ordinary people.

But just at this time, the appearance of a figure attracted the attention of Lin Xun and Yiyu.

That's right, it was Li Chen beside Wu Nanzhi.

When Li Chen appeared among the onlookers, the two suddenly stopped, their eyes skipped Wu Nanzhi and looked at Li Chen, with a look of facing a great enemy.

!

"I didn't expect another one to come."

"What do you say, shall we continue or solve him first."

Lin Xun and Yiyu saw Li Chen at that moment and felt that this fellow had the appearance of a dragon and phoenix among people, his every move was integrated, and he was absolutely a powerhouse with "similar" talent to them.

Only top geniuses can detect people who are "similar" to themselves.

According to their judgment, this young genius who came was even younger than them.

This young genius came to the Wu family, and his purpose was naturally to recruit the Wu family old master.

Then they obviously regarded Li Chen as an opponent.

Wu Nanzhi saw two powerhouses with extraordinary momentum walking towards her, and thought her beauty caused trouble again, and was preparing to explain that she had a man, but these two powerhouses bypassed her and walked towards her man.

This made Wu Nanzhi unable to understand; why is it that beside Li Chen, she doesn't even have the script of being snatched as a heroine?

If you talk about this, Chu Ruoyan has too much feeling.

Li Chen was also a bit puzzled at this moment; I just followed to eat melons and watch the show, do you two have something to do with me?

Lin Xun and Yiyu seemed to reach an agreement, preparing to drive Li Chen away first, and then decide the winner.

Lin Xun said: "Newcomer, you must beat the two of us to be qualified to enter this place."

Yiyu echoed: "Don't say the two of us are bullying you; this is the rule."

Hearing this, Li Chen thought, is the folk custom of Huju City so fierce? You have to fight a game to eat a meal at someone else's house?

Wu Nanzhi told me a lot, but she didn't say there was this rule.

But with your strength, fighting me is looking for a beating.

"Okay." Since it was the local rule, Li Chen followed the local customs.

It was just a discussion, so Li Chen followed them to the center of the main hall.

The guests who were watching were even more excited to see another proud son of heaven.

This was a battle of geniuses that they might not see once in their lives; they must observe every detail carefully; not to mention learning anything, it was capital to brag to people when they went back.

Seeing Li Chen standing with his hands behind his back, Lin Xun and Yiyu both felt that he was pretending to be cool, and you would know you were wrong when you took action.

Both of them had fought for a while, and their meridians had consumed a lot, so they could only choose to use big moves to defeat Li Chen first.

Only to see Lin Xun suddenly urge his meridians, the blue veins on his head were exposed, and his strength soared again; when he swung his fist, the violent fist light came overwhelmingly.

Yiyu was not to be outdone; his palms condensed powerful energy, like a whirlwind, blowing so that many people around couldn't open their eyes; the wind blades in his palms were terrifying, attacking Li Chen.

These two moves made many guests nearby applaud.

In their view, Lin Xun's fist technique had entered the realm of transformation, and it was not at the level that a cultivator of this level could use.

Yiyu's control over energy had long exceeded cultivators of the same level; being able to rub out wind blades with one hand was how terrifying; the ancient royal bloodline was indeed powerful.

The guests wanted to know more about how this new genius would deal with the enemy, and they were all looking at Li Chen with expectant eyes.

Just when Lin Xun and Yiyu were approaching quickly, Li Chen stretched out his right hand.

One slap, one backhand slap, and two big mouths were slapped over.

Slap! Slap!

Two crisp sounds appeared in the Wu family main hall, and Lin Xun and Yiyu were slapped to the ground on the spot.

Their mouths were bleeding, and they were rolling on the ground covering their flushed faces, looking like they were indeed in great pain.

This scene made all the guests watching shocked beyond words.

What's the situation? Two big mouths solved it?

They had thought of countless ways for Li Chen to deal with the enemy, but didn't expect Li Chen to solve it so easily.

In addition to shock, the guests were also thinking about who this new unknown genius was.

A look of joy flashed on the Wu family old master's face; in his view, perhaps if he protected this one to reach the Sage Realm, he should be able to take me to ascend, right?

Now that the winner was decided, the Wu family old master greeted the guests to take their seats and personally came to entertain Li Chen.

Yiyu was helped up by his subordinates; he knew that he was inferior to others this time; the opponent's move, don't look at it as just two slaps, but it was a superior martial art that turned complexity into simplicity.

After getting up, Yiyu came to Li Chen and arched his hands: "Your Excellency is so powerful; my name is Yiyu, a descendant of the ancient royal family; I don't know how to address you."

For the identity of a descendant of the ancient royal family, he was still very proud; after all, comparing bloodlines, not many could compare to him.

The reason he put out his identity was because he wanted to see if this person's status was not high, then he could rely on his identity to snatch it.

At this time, everyone's eyes looked at Li Chen, including the Wu family old master.

They were all curious about Li Chen's origin.

Li Chen glanced at Wu Nanzhi, which meant: it's time for you to pretend to be big.

Wu Nanzhi understood, and came to Li Chen.

At this time, Old Wu Wu Laoyezi discovered that his daughter had returned.

Fortunately, Wu Nanzhi didn't know what her father was thinking, otherwise she would be furious.

After a long time, you only have Li Chen in your eyes, not me!

At this time, the ancient royal family's Yiyu knew that the person opposite him was about to start pretending to be big, and he lost this time.

Because he said his identity himself, and the opponent let a "maid" say it, it was indeed a higher grade than himself.

What he didn't expect was that he would lose even more thoroughly later.

Wu Nanzhi felt that the eyes were looking at her, so she grandly introduced: "This is the Emperor of the Li Clan Royal Family."

As soon as the words fell, Li Chen's nine-shining divine rings appeared, and the strength of the Sage Realm was fully displayed!

The purple energy symbolizing the royal family surged out, and a dragon roar shook the entire main hall!

The terrifying aura covered it, making the whole world roar!

The first to react was the Huju City Prefect.

"Your humble servant Yu Kai pays respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

The second to react was the Huju City Lin Chengjian.

"Your humble servant Zhao Jichuan pays respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

They both had official positions; if they didn't react quickly, that would be a big mistake.

Immediately after, the surrounding area knelt down.

"Your humble citizen pays respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

"Your humble citizen pays respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

"Your humble citizen pays respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

Whether it was the family head of the local powerful family, or the disciples and elders of the nearby sects, and even the people of the Wu family and Old Wu Wu Laoyezi, all knelt on the ground.

One by one, they were filled with anxiety and trembling.

Regardless of how high their power is locally, that is only local—they are just regional-level strong people. The person in front of them is the current emperor, the supreme master of the May Tian Ce Dynasty!

Especially after personally feeling the terrifying strength of this emperor, the Nine-Glory Divine Rings and the Imperial Purple Qi are scenes that people in these remote cities might never see in their entire lives.

And now, all kinds of rumors about the emperor are self-defeating.

This is no old and ugly puppet emperor; such a Sage Realm emperor is so weak that even the old master of the Wu family is like an ant in front of him—how could he be a puppet?

Not only that, he is simply young and possesses a divine appearance that covers the world.

Seeing the holy face today, most of the people kneeling on the ground felt fear, but even more so, a sense of honor.

Don't look at these guys as usually self-righteous; ever since they saw Li Chen, they immediately had a sense of belonging to the May Tian Ce Dynasty.

May I ask, with such an absolutely strong emperor, which subject would not feel proud!

No matter what their status is, in front of Li Chen, there is only one: subjects.
