Yu Taixu was the lord of the Divine Wind Palace, the most distinguished person in the Four Eastern Regions, the uncrowned king.
Even though the candidate for the Human Emperor had appeared, he did not need to worry and did what he had to do. After all, the candidate for the Human Emperor was distinguished, but he was just a high-level puppet in the hands of the five biggest sects. The only difference was whether the Divine Wind Palace had more control over him or not.
Due to the miscalculation in the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony, the Divine Wind Palace had lost the opportunity to completely control the candidate for the Human Emperor. However, even if the candidate for the Human Emperor was not chosen by the Divine Wind Palace, he would still be constrained by the five biggest sects. In particular, the Human Emperor Palace was located in the Divine Wind Palace, and most of the people under the candidate for the Human Emperor were also from the Divine Wind Palace. Although they usually listened to the candidate for the Human Emperor, at the most critical moment, they would still side with the Divine Wind Palace. The Divine Wind Palace could make the candidate for the Human Emperor disappear at any time and make him a commander without an army.
Therefore, even if the candidate for the Human Emperor was not one of his people, Yu Taixu had nothing to worry about.
He was still the lord of the Divine Wind Palace, and he could still control everything.
His status was still the most honorable and the most fearsome.
"So you are the son of Lord Yu. Hehe, compared with Yu Nantian, you are far inferior!"
"Nantian often mentioned you to me. He said that you helped him a lot in the Sea Area. This time, he has really matured a lot after coming back from the Sea Area!" At the mention of Yu Nantian, a rare smile appeared on Yu Taixu's face. "I heard that you helped him a lot in the Sea Area!"
"In the Sea Area, everyone is in a precarious situation. We just support each other. It's not about helping each other.
Originally, Zhou Bao and Yu Taixu were two people who had nothing to do with each other. Even their statuses were worlds apart. Ten days ago, Yu Taixu would not even look at Zhou Bao. But now, he was talking with Zhou Bao in the Human Emperor Palace as if they were old friends. The reason was that Zhou Bao had defeated his old rival, Hong Taihe, the Family Head of the Hong Family.
No one expected that Hong Taihe was an Eight-tribulation True Immortal. No one expected that Senior Senior Tutor Hong, who was only at Level Nine, was just a puppet.
It was already against the Law of Heaven for a Mysterious Realm practitioner to intervene in mortal affairs, let alone an Eight-tribulation Genuine Immortal, a figure at the Lord of Heaven Realm.
However, after thinking about it, everyone felt that this was a normal thing. If everything went well with Senior Grand Tutor Hong, there would be no need to worry about the punishment for violating the rules of heaven.
The control of the Golden Book of Fate had always been in the hands of the five biggest sects. Among them, the Divine Wind Palace was the most powerful. As the second biggest family in the Divine Wind Palace, the Hong Family also had a certain degree of control over the Golden Book of Fate. It was not difficult to use this control to conceal Hong Taihe's real cultivation.
On the other hand, the candidate of the Human Emperor controlled the general trend of the world. If he stood on the side of righteousness, he had the right to control the Law of Heaven. Although it was only nominal, as long as he insisted, it was very easy to pardon a person who violated the Law of Heaven.
With the strength of an Eight-tribulation True Immortal, Hong Taihe had cultivated the Self-world to the extreme. With such power, it was almost certain that Hong Taihe would help Emperor Yang seize the position of the Human Emperor. If everything went well with Emperor Yang and he ascended to the throne of the Human Emperor, then he would be Hong Taihe's puppet. It would be very easy to pardon Hong Taihe for the crime of intervening in secular affairs in the name of the candidate of the Human Emperor. After all, although Hong Taihe had intervened in secular affairs, he had a sense of propriety and did not go too far. The Li Dynasty was originally a dynasty with great luck. With the help of the dynasty's power, Hong Taihe could stabilize its position. It might have a lot of influence in the secular world, but it did not affect the interests of the five biggest sects at all. Therefore, the other four biggest sects would not make things difficult for Hong Taihe on this matter and would certainly turn a blind eye to it.
Of course, this was if everything went well and everything went according to his plan.
But no one expected that there would be an accident at the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony.
After all, of the two accidents, one was obviously caused by Yu Taixu, and the other was really an accident. But even such an accident did not affect Hong Taihe's plan. His combat capability was not damaged, and the two accidents helped him defeat more competitors. Instead, the situation became more favorable to him. That was why he insisted on continuing the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony, because at that time, he thought that he was the strongest party. But no one expected that he would be defeated by Zhou Bao.
Zhou Bao defeated Hong Taihe head-on, showing a powerful attack that chilled people's hearts, as well as a weird and unpredictable body movement of hollow travel.
These high-ranking experts were taken aback. When they saw the battle between Zhou Bao and Hong Taihe, they did not think of Zhou Bao's terrifying frontal attack. Instead, they thought that if Zhou Bao used this strange space-traveling power to assassinate them, who would be able to stop him?
They were afraid that even a Lord of Heaven could not stop him. Unless they were like Hong Taihe, who could solidify the world.
Solidify the world!
Although it could save one's life, it would destroy more than half of one's lifetime cultivation. Who would be willing to do it until the last moment?
It was for this reason that Yu Taixu was so polite to Zhou Bao. Even for him, it was a headache to face an assassination at Zhou Bao's level, not to mention that the five biggest sects had agreed to secretly kill Zhou Bao in the Infinite Star Sea.
All the people present were cunning. After Zhou Bao showed such powerful strength and saw Zhou Bao chatting happily with Yu Taixu, the suzerains of the four biggest sects secretly winked at each other. Everyone tacitly crossed Zhou Bao's name off the list of the exploration of the Infinite Star Sea.
It did not take too much time to repair the Human Emperor Palace. Everyone present had a lot of Divine Senses. Even the maids and attendants who served at the side were at least experts at Level Seven. Therefore, in just a few breaths, the messy Human Emperor Palace was cleaned up, and the big hole on the top of the palace was repaired in the shortest time. Zhou Bao also returned to his seat. His seat was second only to the suzerains of the five biggest sects, Elder Qing and the others. In fact, he was sitting next to White Tiger.
"King Wuyang, you've really broadened our horizons this time by displaying your invincible might!" As soon as he sat down, White Tiger picked up his wine cup and said, "I wonder if you are interested in joining our Immortal Palace?"
There was another period of silence in the Human Emperor Palace.
Except for the guys from the Immortal Palace, everyone glared at White Tiger. How could he do this? Blatantly trying to rope in Zhou Bao showed that he did not take the other sects seriously. Zhou Bao's combat capability was obvious to all. After he joined the Immortal Palace, even if the strength of the Immortal Palace was not as good as that of the Divine Wind Palace, it would still suppress the other sects. This was not a good thing for others.
"Immortal Palace!" Zhou Bao touched his nose pretentiously. "Hehe, I admire the Immortal Palace very much. I'm especially interested in its way of doing things. But if I join the Immortal Palace, which constellation of the 28 constellations will I be?"
"Hahahaha, in addition to the 28 constellations, there are Four Signs in the Immortal Palace. Elder Qing and I are both part of the Four Signs. With your current strength, you are much stronger than the two of us. At least you will be part of the Four Signs!"
"Part of the Four Signs? Why? You want to give up your position to me? "Zhou Bao joked.
"Hehe, the Four Signs and 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace have been incomplete for many years. I don't need to give up my position to you. You can choose either the Vermilion Bird of the South or the Black Tortoise of the North!"
"Forget it. The 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace are never in charge, but the Four Signs are. Do you think I'm in charge?" Zhou Bao shook his head and laughed. "I can't even manage my own affairs. How can I manage the affairs of the Immortal Palace? Well, you can choose one of the 28 constellations for me!"
"The 28 constellations?" White Tiger thought for a while and said, "Well, the position of Water Leopard of Winnowing Basket is empty. Since your name is Zhou Bao, why don't you take the position of Water Leopard of Winnowing Basket? At the same time, you can temporarily take the position of Black Tortoise of the North. Your position in the Immortal Palace is equal to that of the Four Signs, second only to the Star Master. What do you think? "
"Good, I like this suggestion!" Zhou Bao nodded with a smile and drank up the wine in his cup. "Then, we are in the same sect from now on!"
"Yes, we are in the same sect from now on!" Bai Hu roared with laughter. Everyone present was stunned and didn't know what to say.
They didn't expect such a scene to happen in the Human Emperor Palace after the coronation ceremony. No matter how they looked at it, these two guys seemed to have arranged it in advance. They echoed each other as if they were performing an opera. No one had expected such a result.
However, Yu Taixu's eyes flashed, as if he had suddenly understood. With a long laugh, he picked up the wine cup and raised it to the Star Master of the Immortal Palace beside him. "Hahahaha, good, good, good, Star Master Mo, what a good trick! I'm not as good as you, I'm not as good!"
Star Master Mo smiled and also raised his cup. "Lord, you're too modest. I'm just a figurehead of the Four Signs and 28 constellations. Nominally, I'm the master of the Immortal Palace, but no one can control me. Look, with just a few words, the position of one of the 28 constellations and one of the Four Signs has been decided, and it's a concurrent position. He didn't even ask me. I'm ashamed, really ashamed!"
"What a cunning bastard!"
Hearing Star Master Mo's words, all the people present cursed in their hearts. They also understood that Zhou Bao was actually a spy of the Immortal Palace!
But thinking about it, how could Zhou Bao be so arrogant if he didn't have the support of a powerful force like the Immortal Palace? How could he rise in such a short time? How could his strength be so abnormal?
