"Stop it!"
At the moment when Lin Feng had nowhere to hide, the gentle voice of the old man spread throughout the entire palace. Lin Feng had the feeling that he was bathing in the spring wind. His body felt warm and comfortable. Lin Feng also had the feeling that his pure Qi, which had been sealed, had returned to him.
Since that's the case, haha, bring it on!
In a flash, Lin Feng punched out, condensing an incredible amount of strength. A terrifying fist silhouette appeared in front of Dongfang Yuqing. Dongfang Yuqing's facial expression drastically changed, he was furious. He punched out again. Their fists and fists were dazzling and dazzling.
Boom! Lin Feng was blasted away and slammed into the wall of the hall. Lin Feng felt that his internal organs had shifted and the bones in his back were about to break. Dongfang Yuqing didn't feel any better either. Lin Feng's Overbearing Fist was so terrifying that even an Earth Grade God Ancestor wouldn't dare to take it head-on. Even though Dongfang Yuqing was able to withstand it, he still spat out a mouthful of blood.
Instantly, the officials exclaimed and the hall fell silent. Lin Feng's punch made Dongfang Yuqing spit out blood? Was this a joke? Lin Feng was just a Saint Grade God Ancestor, how could he make an overlord retreat?
Shock, fear, all kinds of emotions gathered on Lin Feng. But Lin Feng didn't have time to care about the complicated expressions on the people's faces. His bones felt like they were broken. The huge energy had shattered the bracelet. One could only imagine what would happen if the energy rushed into his body.
If it weren't for the Ancestral Body, he would have already died. Even so, the Ancestral Body started to dim and the dragon and phoenix bloodlines weakened. It seemed that he had made Dongfang Yuqing retreat in this battle, but he had to pay a higher price.
"How is this possible?" Dongfang Yuqing stood on the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He was completely stunned. He never thought that Lin Feng had the strength to injure him. Wasn't this a joke? But it had indeed happened.
"Father, let me help you."
Just as the atmosphere in the hall became silent, Nian Lingjiao's voice rang out. Very quickly, the father and daughter pair walked out from the back of the hall. The officials quickly took their positions. Dongfang Yuqing could only swallow his humiliation and stand on the main seat.
The Grand Elder, who was wearing a purple robe, walked to the Dragon Throne. He looked at Lin Feng, who was sitting beside the Dragon Throne, and nodded secretly. After learning about Lin Feng's identity and strength, the Grand Elder was indeed shocked. He did not expect there to be such a genius in the Northwest Continent. It was amazing. A Saint-grade God Ancestor could compete with an Earth-grade God Ancestor.
"Take him away," she said. Said the great ancestor to Nian Ling Jiao. Nian Ling Jiao silently walked to Lin Feng and helped him up. At the same time, she poked a few acupuncture points and Lin Feng felt much better.
"Thank you, Eldest Princess." Lin Feng looked at Nian Ling Jiao gratefully. Nian Ling Jiao remained silent and led Lin Feng to Dongfang Yuqing's side. Lin Feng's position was strange, he was standing in the position of the emperor's son-in-law.
"As expected, Eldest Princess …" When Dongfang Yuqing saw Nian Ling Jiao and Lin Feng together, he understood that Nian Ling Jiao had hidden Lin Feng from them the night before. He couldn't control his anger, he wanted to expose Nian Ling Jiao but before he could say anything, Nian Ling Jiao looked at him coldly.
If he dared to expose the truth, Nian Ling Jiao would report that he had trespassed into Nian Ling Jiao's courtyard and even her room. If that happened, it would be difficult to deal with.
Nian Ling smiled at Dongfang Yuqing and pretended to be innocent. She asked, "Prime Minister, what do you want to say?"
"I'm fine, hehe." Dongfang Yuqing had already clenched his fists under his robe, but he had no choice but to relax and ignore the two of them.
The Grand Elder looked at Lin Feng and Nian Ling Jiao and nodded. He couldn't help but stroke his beard and smile.
"Today is the third time the Eldest Princess has taken the initiative to come to court. I'm very happy." The Grand Elder sat on the Dragon Throne and laughed. He hadn't been this happy in a long time. Even though there had been a chaotic battle, it was just an interlude. It wouldn't affect his reunion with Nian Ling Jiao.
"Congratulations Your Majesty, congratulations Your Majesty!"
"Congratulations Your Majesty, congratulations Your Majesty!"
As soon as the Great Ancestor's voice fell, all the officials below shouted in unison. Their loud voices shook the entire hall.
Lin Feng couldn't help but nod. The Zhen Wu Dynasty had indeed played with the secular world to the extreme. They had fooled these strong cultivators. Lin Feng felt that it was a pity. There were more than a hundred officials in the hall and almost all of them were Saint God Ancestors. The four people in front were even Earth God Ancestors.
There were so many experts, but they were being toyed around by a worldly power. It was really hard to understand. Could it be that power was really so attractive? Lin Feng didn't understand.
"Father, I have a request." Nian Lingjiao cupped her fists and looked at the Great Ancestor with a request.
"Say it, father will agree." The Grand Elder smiled and nodded his head lovingly. No matter what Nian Lingjiao asked for, he would agree to it unconditionally.
Nian Ling smiled and looked at Lin Feng. She then looked at the Minister of Law and said slowly, "I want father to appoint Lin Feng as the Minister of Law!"
"What? Your Highness, w-what are you doing? " The Minister of Law, who was also the burly man, turned pale when he heard Nian Ling's request. He almost cried.
"You didn't forget what happened yesterday, did you?" Nian Ling sneered and stared at the Minister of Law. The burly man was stunned and then looked at Dongfang Yuqing. Dongfang Yuqing was staring at him threateningly, meaning that if he dared to say it, he would kill him.
The burly man sighed helplessly. He could only admit that he was unlucky. The two immortals were fighting and he was the unlucky one.
The Grand Elder was surprised. What happened last night? He was in the palace and didn't notice anything unusual.
"Daughter, what happened last night?" Asked the Grand Elder curiously. His question made the officials break out in a cold sweat. Last night, almost all the officials had gathered outside the Grand Princess' mansion. Although they didn't go in, Nian Ling remembered them one by one.
If Nian Ling told them now, they would all be in danger.
Nian Ling smiled when she saw so many officials looking at her. She couldn't help but laugh. Now they were scared. If they had known that things would turn out like this, they wouldn't have done it in the first place.
"Do you agree to appoint Lin Feng as the Minister of Law?" Nian Lingjiao did not answer the Great Ancestor's question. Instead, she turned around and looked at the officials. Her tone was calm, but there was a chilling aura in it.
When the officials heard her, their facial expressions changed. They all started replying, "Of course, Lin Feng is the Minister of Law, he's the most suitable person."
"Lin Feng is young and strong, he's the Minister of Law, he's the most suitable person."
"Indeed, Lin Feng is strong and courageous, he's the most suitable person to be the Minister of Law."
At that moment, Lin Feng felt a chill run down his spine. These people were all hypocritical. Lin Feng couldn't stand it. Could it be that all officials were like that?
Dongfang Yuqing frowned even more. He finally understood how powerful Nian Ling was. If Lin Feng became the Minister of Law, Lin Feng would be in charge of all the laws of the Zhen Wu Dynasty. Dongfang Yuqing wouldn't be able to put Lin Feng in jail anymore, he wouldn't even be able to do anything to him.
What a cruel move. Dongfang Yuqing looked at his cousin coldly. If Lin Feng became the Minister of Justice, he would lose a lot of power.
The Minister of Law, the Minister of Wealth, the Minister of War and the Minister of Appointments were all under his control. Now that the Minister of Law was gone, it was like losing an arm.
But he had no choice. If he dared to object, the Great Ancestor would find out about what happened last night. The Great Ancestor spoiled Nian Lingjiao so much that he wouldn't let him go.
"Great Ancestor, as the head of the officials, I'm really distressed. The Minister of Law, Lu Zhan, has committed a heinous crime. He wanted to kill Lin Feng last night. Thank you, Elder Princess. Otherwise, the Zhen Wu Dynasty would be in trouble." Dongfang Yuqing had to betray his subordinates.
Dongfang Yuqing reported. The Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Lu Zhan, turned pale. He realized that he had been abandoned by Dongfang Yuqing. With a thud, he collapsed on the ground. He did not look like an Earth-Grade God Ancestor at all. He was just like an ordinary Minister of the Ministry of Justice. He was scared out of his wits.
Lin Feng sighed. An Earth-Grade God Ancestor had been ruined by a false reputation. He had completely forgotten what an expert should be like. If it was outside, an Earth-Grade God Ancestor would be the supreme master of the Battle World, but in the Zhen Wu Dynasty …
Lin Feng felt bitter. If there were a few more Earth-Grade God Ancestors in the Octagon Territory, they would have unified the Northwest. The Battle Spirit Clan, the World Dragon Clan and even the Jun Temple wouldn't have been so arrogant.
"There's actually such a thing?" After hearing Dongfang Yuqing's report, the Great Ancestor's face changed. His killing intent filled the hall. Everyone felt suffocated, especially Lin Feng.
"This old thing is really powerful." Lin Feng thought. After seeing the Great Ancestor and comparing the strength of the Earth Ancestor, Kun Dao, Ni Huang, Female Ancestor and Dragon Ancestor, Lin Feng had a definite answer.
The Dragon Ancestor was the most powerful, followed by the Great Ancestor, Kun Dao, Earth Ancestor, Ni Huang and Female Ancestor. This was the basic strength ranking. Of course, they all had their own trump cards.
"Alright, my daughter didn't beg me, so I agree. Lin Feng, are you willing to be the Minister of Justice?" The Great Ancestor was ready to make Lin Feng the Minister of Justice, but he still wanted to ask the outsider's opinion.
Lin Feng frowned. To be honest, he didn't want to be the Minister of Justice. He had to return to the Octagon Territory. After all, his family and friends were there. However, it was impossible in a short time. Dongfang Yuqing wasn't dead, so he wouldn't leave. He had to take revenge.
If he wanted to take revenge, he couldn't do it without becoming an official. That was the system of the Zhen Wu Dynasty.
"Thank you, Great Ancestor. I'm willing." Lin Feng clenched his fists, but he didn't kneel.
Nian Lingjiao took a deep breath. She was worried that Lin Feng would refuse. Then all her efforts would be in vain.
"Haha, good, good." The Great Ancestor stroked his beard and smiled brightly. The Zhen Wu Dynasty was really lucky to have such a genius.
