He chatted with Chu Qingshan for a long time. Of course, most of the topic was Chu Qingshan and Chu Qingshan testing whether or not the Burning Sky Ruler was willing to protect the Moonless Empire. A retired emperor had supreme status and position in the Moonless Empire. While having such status and position, he naturally had to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the Moonless Empire.
They seemed to be chatting casually, but in this conversation, the Burning Sky Ruler acutely sensed that Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai weren't as united as they seemed on the surface. There was a bit of conflict between them.
The Burning Sky Ruler naturally didn't know that the conflict between Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai was no longer a secret in the imperial family. The two retired emperors had their own followers in the imperial family. The first prince Chu Wuque and second prince Chu Wushuang were their disciples.
Thus, it wasn't strange that Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai chose to support Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang.
The imperial family wasn't as peaceful as one would imagine, especially after the conflict for the position of crown prince erupted. The entire imperial family was divided into several large factions, and these factions were currently crazily fighting for power.
Facing the temptation of power, Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai didn't care because they already had supreme status and position. However, the younger generation below them couldn't.
However, although they fought, Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai were extremely united against outsiders. Just like when they faced the Burning Sky Ruler, the two of them were clearly grasshoppers on the same rope.
At the same time, the most important point was that no matter what level a martial artist was at, they needed resources to cultivate. The further they went, the more resources they needed to cultivate.
In the Moonless Empire, although the retired emperors would be provided with a considerable amount of cultivation resources every month, the distribution of resources naturally couldn't be completely equal. It could be said that before the Burning Sky Ruler came, Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai's distribution of resources was pretty much based on the strength of their respective factions.
Most importantly, the little bit of cultivation resources the Imperial Family provided to the Retired Emperor was utterly insufficient to fill the gaps between the teeth of a Dao Emperor Realm expert. If he wanted even more cultivation resources, then he naturally could only ask his subordinates to search for them. As for how much he could find, it depended on the ability of his subordinates.
It was also because of this that Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai would participate in the fight for the position of crown prince and support the first prince Chu Wuque and second prince Chu Wuming. They weren't interested in the position of crown prince, but they needed people to help them find cultivation resources.
After all, as a Dao Emperor Realm expert, it was impossible for him to search for the cultivation resources he required himself, right? This was clearly unrealistic.
Therefore, Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai supported Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang. Both sides took what they needed. Chu Qingshan and Chu Wushuang used Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang to find the resources they needed, while Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang used Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai to fight for the position of crown prince and control more power in the Moonless Empire.
Having somewhat understood the way to survive in the Moonless Empire, the Burning Sky Ruler had become the retired emperor of the Moonless Empire. Thus, the Burning Sky Ruler naturally had to support a faction of his own. Otherwise, not only would the Burning Sky Ruler obtain less cultivation resources than Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai, it would also be much more troublesome.
Understanding this, the Burning Sky Ruler already had an answer. Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai had already chosen the first prince Chu Wuque and the second prince Chu Wushuang. Thus, the Burning Sky Ruler naturally chose the third prince Chu Wuming.
After chatting for a long time, an entire day later, the Burning Sky Ruler finally left Chu Qingshan and Chu Wuming's place. Afterwards, he was personally brought to his residence by Chu Wuming.
The Heavenly Stellar Residence in the imperial capital was currently being built. The residence was naturally ready-made and had already been chosen. It was a large residence not far from the imperial palace, located in the heart of the imperial capital.
The entire residence took up an enormous area. Compared to the Heavenly Stellar Residence in Moon Trace City, this residence was at least five times larger. Even if tens of thousands of people lived here, it wouldn't be crowded. There were gardens and courtyards everywhere, and the environment was extremely beautiful. Now, it only needed a bit of work to be able to move in. Presumably, it wouldn't take more than a few days.
The construction of the new Heavenly Stellar Residence was given to Chu Wuming to handle. With his abilities, such a small matter naturally wasn't a problem.
In a short three days, Chu Wuming successfully completed the construction of the Heavenly Stellar Residence. Xiao Chen, Burning Sky Ruler, and Zhang Qi personally went over.
After circling around the imperial capital's Heavenly Stellar Residence, Chu Wuming respectfully asked, "Is there anything senior Burning Sky is dissatisfied with?"
"Not bad, Zhang Qi, you can let Sikong Ming and the others leave." Hearing Chu Wuming's words, the Burning Sky Ruler slightly nodded. This residence wasn't bad. Immediately after, he ordered Zhang Qi to let Sikong Ming and the others leave for the imperial capital.
Seeing that the Burning Sky Ruler was very satisfied with his arrangements, Chu Wuming secretly sighed in relief. Currently, the Burning Sky Ruler was Chu Wuming's biggest backer, so he naturally didn't dare to displease the Burning Sky Ruler.
Respectfully bowing, Chu Wuming very sensibly said, "If that's the case, then this junior will no longer disturb Senior Fen Tian and Brother Xiao Chen. This junior will take his leave first. If Senior Fen Tian has any instructions, please send someone to find me."
Knowing that the Heavenly Stellar Residence was successfully built, the Burning Sky Ruler and the others obviously had something to say. At this time, if Chu Wuming continued to stay here and didn't leave, it would only annoy the Burning Sky Ruler.
Hearing Chu Wuming's words, the Burning Sky Ruler slightly nodded, but he said indifferently, "I need some cultivation resources. Get me some."
Now that he knew how to obtain more cultivation resources in the Moonless Empire, the Burning Sky Ruler naturally wouldn't be polite at this time. Hearing this, Chu Wuming directly agreed without the slightest hesitation.
He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the Burning Sky Ruler's words. After all, the cultivation resources required by a Dao Emperor Realm almighty was indeed an astronomical figure, and to support such consumption, relying on the cultivation resources provided by the imperial family was clearly insufficient. Moreover, although the imperial family had a treasury, many of them were useless to Dao Emperors. If one wanted to obtain true treasures of heaven and earth, then one had to go to various places to search for or purchase them.
In this way, Chu Wuming naturally played the role of running errands. Of course, it was impossible for Chu Wuming to go personally, but he could send someone below him.
This would allow Chu Wuming to start searching for the various treasures of heaven and earth needed for his cultivation.
Along with the establishment of the Heavenly Stellar Residence in the imperial capital, the Burning Sky Ruler's Bestowment Ceremony should be held in a few days. At that time, the imperial family would announce it to the world. In this way, the Burning Sky Ruler would truly become the third retired emperor of the Moonless Empire, and Xiao Chen and the others could be said to have successfully established themselves in the imperial capital.
