"Who's there?"
In the middle of a meeting, Ling Xiao suddenly frowned and looked out the window.
"I'm a messenger from the Tianhai Empire. Since Ling Xiao has returned, please hurry to the Dragon-slaying Forest."
A voice came from outside, but the speaker refused to show himself.
"Sneaky and deliberately mystifying things! You didn't even come to greet me. Is this the rule of the Tianhai Empire? Get out here! "
Ling Xiao frowned. This person actually trespassed into Qingxu College. This was a big taboo for both Lin Hai City and Qingxu College.
On one hand, it showed that this person was powerful.
On the other hand, it showed that this person didn't take Ling Xiao seriously at all.
How could he not flip out?
Although he wouldn't kill the other party, he still had to show his strength.
Following his angry roar, an explosion came from outside the window.
That person was actually blasted out from his hiding place.
His face was in a sorry state.
Before he could say anything, Feng Qingyan had already captured him alive.
"Your Majesty, this is my responsibility. The recent war just ended and I was a little lax. This will never happen again."
Feng Qingyan threw that person to the ground and said to Ling Xiao.
"Don't do it again. This is related to the safety of Forest Sea City and Qingxu Academy."
Ling Xiao glanced at Feng Qingyan and said coldly.
Being polite was one thing, but when it was time to be serious and show the power of a Celestial Emperor, he would never be soft-hearted.
He knew very well whether it was public or private.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Of course, Feng Qingyan also knew that he had made a big mistake. Fortunately, the other party wasn't here to assassinate anyone, but to pass on a message. Otherwise, there would be a big problem.
"Ling Xiao, how dare you. Dragon Phoenix Mountain is also under the jurisdiction of the Tianhai Empire. How dare you be disrespectful to me!"
The messenger was thrown to the ground. His acupuncture points were sealed and he couldn't move, but he could still speak.
Slap!
Ling Xiao didn't need to speak. Naturally, someone slapped this guy hard in the face.
"This is the Divine Phoenix Continent, the Celestial Empire. You better be clear about this."
Ling Xiao glanced at the emissary and said, "You can pass on the message openly and respectfully. Are all of you from the Tianhai Empire so unruly?"
"You!"
The emissary wanted to roar, but the blood at the corner of his mouth made him grit his teeth. In the end, he didn't shout.
"Take this person away, flog him 20 times, then throw him out of Forest Sea City."
Ling Xiao saw that he didn't say anything, so he sneered and said, "This is a lesson for you. If there's a next time, I'll kill you without mercy!"
"Ling Xiao, you self-proclaimed idiot. If you dare to touch me, you will definitely die a horrible death."
At first, the messenger was already silent, but when he heard that Ling Xiao was going to hit him with the staff, a burst of anger immediately erupted.
He was the Tianhai Empire's emissary, representing the Tianhai Empire. To actually be humiliated in a mere small country, how could he endure it?
Not to mention that the staff wasn't light. Simply put, the staff was a military staff fused with secret arts. Although 20 flogs wouldn't kill him, he would definitely be crippled.
"Say that again?"
Ling Xiao stared at the emissary and revealed a hint of a cold smile, "I'll give you a chance to live. Don't seek your own death!"
"Bah! Kid, if I give you face, you're some dogshit Celestial Empire's Heavenly Emperor. If I don't give you face, you're nothing. Your father doesn't believe that you really dare to kill me! "
The emissary directly spat a mouthful of saliva at Ling Xiao. Although it didn't hit, it was very obvious that Ling Xiao's expression didn't look too good.
And this guy actually continued to roar recklessly, "You better hurry up and let me go, and kneel down to apologize. Otherwise, I'll destroy your Celestial Empire!"
"Is that so?"
Ling Xiao glanced at the emissary coldly. Suddenly, he raised his hand, and a cold light tore through the void.
The emissary's head rolled to the ground.
"Wrap his head up. I want to give it to the people of the Tianhai Empire. Let them know that although my Celestial Empire is small, it definitely can't be humiliated."
Ling Xiao said coldly.
"Yes!"
Immediately, someone wrapped the head up and put it into a gorgeous box.
Ling Xiao held the box and smiled. Then, he stood up and said, "Let's go. Since they've invited us, it won't do if we don't go."
"Your Majesty, there are some words that you might need to hear."
Feng Qingyan suddenly said, "Originally, the people of the Tianhai Empire came to the Divine Phoenix Continent to select people to participate in the White Tiger Meet.
Although the Five Immortals Island doesn't belong to the Tianhai Empire, they have always been subjects of the Tianhai Empire and have always paid tribute.
The countries on the Divine Phoenix Continent are all vassals of the Five Immortals Island, so they are naturally treated as subjects by the Tianhai Empire.
A subject's subject is still a subject, and an even more lowly one.
However, Phoenix Cry Mountain's outstanding performance and the rise of the Divine Phoenix Empire still made the Tianhai Empire give the Divine Phoenix Empire some face. If it was in the past, the Tianhai Empire would only let Dragon Phoenix Mountain handle the matters here. They simply couldn't be bothered to care about this backward continent. "
"Principal Qingyan, what do you mean by telling me all this? I don't understand."
Ling Xiao asked doubtfully.
"What I want to say is that the Tianhai Empire thinks highly of themselves and considers everyone beneath their notice. You have killed their people, so you should be mentally prepared."
Feng Qingyan finally voiced out his worries.
"I thought it was something big. In any case, I originally didn't plan to be a vassal of the Tianhai Empire. If their attitude is better, it's fine to participate in the White Tiger Meet in their name.
But if their attitude isn't good, then at worst, we can just start another furnace. "
Ling Xiao said indifferently.
He had always felt that there was no problem in this world that couldn't be solved. Panicking whenever he encountered something was definitely not his style.
"Your Majesty, if you ask me, it's better for you to follow the Tianhai Empire to participate in the White Tiger Meet.
After all, the White Tiger Continent is extraordinary! "
Feng Qingyan knew that although Ling Xiao was arrogant and stubborn, as long as what he said was reasonable, the other party would still listen. That was why he suggested it.
"Mn, you're right. I'll try my best. But if others aren't willing, then there's nothing I can do."
Ling Xiao also didn't want to make a big deal out of it. After all, the Tianhai Empire's accumulation wasn't enough.
But he wasn't someone who liked to be bullied. If the other party didn't let him have an easy time, then at worst, he would just shed all pretense of cordiality.
"Then Your Majesty, and the few of you, you have to be careful."
When Feng Qingyan saw that Ling Xiao had accepted his advice, he nodded his head in satisfaction. Then, he reminded him again.
After all, the situation this time was different from the Dragon-slaying Forest.
At that time, only the Divine Phoenix Continent, Sky Dragon Continent, and the affiliated islands participated in the selection.
And this time, the Tianhai Empire brought the geniuses of Dragon Phoenix Mountain and Water God Hall.
How could there be any weaklings?
Why was the selection condition raised to the sixth Grotto-Heaven Realm this time? It was probably because the weakest cultivator coming was at the sixth Grotto-Heaven Realm.
