"Let's do it!"
Finally, a ruthless expression appeared on Elder Tian Xiang's face. At that moment, the ripples of energy from his sleeves grew stronger.
Rumble! Rumble!
But under Elder Tian Xiang's pressure, the dusty throne began to rumble. Upon closer inspection, the dusty throne, which had been silent for thousands of years, was actually trembling slightly.
"Sir King Level Expert has moved! Sir King Level Expert has moved! Could it be that Sir King Level Expert has approved of Tian Zhong?"
"Has the throne finally approved of the new city lord after thousands of years of silence?"
At the same time, the three elders were ecstatic. They were not fighting for their own interests. They were happy from the bottom of their hearts.
These were the people of the Dusty Monarch City. Nurtured by the thousands of years of history, they had great faith in the dusty throne.
No matter how much they disliked someone, as long as the dusty throne approved of them, they would be willing to work for him.
Buzz!
However, just when all the elders thought that the dust-laden throne had acknowledged Tian Zhong, a strange rune suddenly appeared around the dust-laden throne.
The rune was circular and emitted a deep blue light. It was like a small formation that enveloped the dusty throne.
The light grew brighter and brighter, so much so that the entire main hall was dyed a deep blue. It was so bright that no one could open their eyes.
Boom!
"Ahh!"
Just at that moment, there was a miserable shriek. A figure shot out of the blue light and flew out of the main hall.
When everyone saw the figure clearly, they could not help but be shocked. It was Tian Zhong, who they thought had received the throne's approval.
"Tian Zhong was sent flying? Could it be that he didn't receive the throne's approval?" Everyone was dumbstruck and extremely shocked when they saw this scene. At the same time, extreme disappointment surged onto their faces.
"Damn it. Even the treasure that I prepared meticulously couldn't suppress him?" At that moment, Elder Tian Xiang's sleeves trembled slightly. The strange energy finally retracted. His deathly pale face was filled with unwillingness.
At the same time, the slumbering Xing Jue suddenly sat up in the dungeon below the main hall. His face was filled with shock.
"Master, what's wrong?" Xing Jue suddenly got up and woke Xiao Lian up.
"Ah! That Half Exalted Artifact has awakened! It is currently making a contract with master!" Xiao Lian cried out in excitement.
At that moment, Xing Jue did not speak. He quickly closed his eyes as if he was doing something. Xiao Lian, on the other hand, stared straight at Xing Jue. His big eyes did not even blink.
After a while, Xing Jue finally opened his eyes again. At this moment, an extremely excited smile appeared on his face.
At that moment, he was extremely excited, because he had just successfully formed a contract with the Dusty Throne. He was now the owner of the Dusty Throne.
"Three old farts, let's see what you're going to do next!" Xing Jue looked at the top of the dungeon.
"What's going on? The light has dissipated! "
At that moment, the dazzling blue light in the main hall above the dungeon had already dissipated. Everything was the same as before, as if nothing had changed.
However, all the elders were staring at the dust-covered throne above them with faces filled with shock. They were still unable to recover from the previous change.
"Everyone, not only did Tian Zhong successfully get onto the high platform, but the Throne also reacted."
Elder Tian Xiang suddenly walked to the center of the main hall and said to everyone with a grave expression, "Everything is clear. Tian Zhong has already obtained the Throne's approval. I feel that from today onwards, Tian Zhong should be appointed as the City Lord."
"This …" After hearing his words, the elders discussed among themselves. They did not express their opinion.
Previously, they had indeed thought that the Dusty Throne had approved of Tian Zhong. However, when they saw Tian Zhong being sent flying by the Throne, they dispelled that thought.
"Elder Tian Xiang, Lord Wang Zhong has indeed reacted earlier. However, he blasted Tian Zhong off the high platform. Could this be the acknowledgement you speak of?" Elder Xuan Xiang sneered. His attitude had once again returned to his previous hostile attitude.
"Hmph, who in the past thousands of years could make the Throne react in such a way? Is that not enough to say that Tian Zhong has the qualifications to become the City Lord? "
"Let's not talk about the Throne's reaction. Just the fact that Tian Zhong stepped onto the 48th step means that he has the qualifications to become the City Lord. Do you think you can find a disciple who can step onto the 48th step?"
Elder Tian Xiang became agitated when he heard Elder Xuan Xiang's objection. He did not want to fail at the last moment after spending so much effort to reach this step.
"My Black Camp's Xuan Awakening hasn't been tried yet. I suggest that he try!"
"Xuan Awakening? How can an outsider like him be the City Lord of our Dusty Royal City? He doesn't have the qualifications to get close to the Throne. That is simply a stain to the Throne! "Elder Tian Xiang rejected.
* Rumble * But at this moment, the Dusty Throne on the high platform began to shake violently again.
"Whoosh." Then, it turned into a black light and shot out. It flew out of the main hall and rushed towards the dungeon.
"Heavens, the Throne actually moved? The Throne actually understood!!! "
The sudden turn of events shocked everyone. All of them stared dumbfoundedly at the dust-covered throne as it left. However, not a single one of them chased after it. They were all completely stunned. It could even be said that they were frightened.
Because in the Dusty Royal City's nearly ten thousand years of history, no one had ever heard of the Dusty Throne moving. But it was happening right in front of them. How could they not be shocked?
* Swoosh * Elder Tian Xiang's expression changed drastically when he saw the Dusty Throne fly into the dungeon. A gust of wind blew past and he chased after the Dusty Throne.
At the same time, the other three elders also reacted and chased after it.
* Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh … *
Only after the three elders left did the elders and disciples in the hall react. All of them flew up in unison and leaped into the dungeon.
"Heavens, this …"
When all the elders and disciples entered the prison, the already shocked crowd became even more dumbfounded. They did not know what to do because they were shocked to discover that the dust-covered throne was currently lashing out at the prison that was used to hold the executions.
* bang, bang, bang. *
Once, twice, thrice. The powerful sounds of collisions continuously entered everyone's ears, shocking everyone's requests and attacking everyone's hearts.
As they looked at the Dusty Throne that was attacking the iron dungeon, the crowd entered a sluggish state. All of them were dumbfounded and all sorts of complicated emotions filled their faces.
However, Xing Jue had a light smile on his face as he looked at the crowd in front of him. Especially when he looked at Elder Tian Xiang, Elder Di Xiang and Elder Huang Xiang, his gaze was filled with ridicule.
"Quickly!!!"
"Quickly open the dungeon and let Xuan Xuan out!!!"
Suddenly, an explosive shout that sounded like a thunderclap rang out. To Xing Jue's surprise, it was actually Elder Tian Xiang.
* whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh *
With Elder Tian Xiang's reminder, the four management elders uniformly soared into the sky and began to fly toward the underground prison. However, before they could even approach the underground prison, the might of the dust-covered throne stopped them in their tracks.
"We can't. With the Throne here, we cannot approach." Elder Di Xiang said helplessly. After the four management elders looked at each other, helplessness filled their faces as well.
Although they could use their power to suppress the Dusty Throne, as a person of the Dusty Throne, they simply did not dare to do so. That was because the Dusty Throne had already been branded with a supreme and inviolable label in their hearts.
* whoosh * But just at this moment, as if it possessed intelligence, the Dusty Throne actually moved to the side on its own and made way for the four elders.
"This …"
Seeing this scene, the four elders were all taken aback. However, they did not hesitate too much and hurriedly arrived before the dungeon to break the Spirit Formation they laid together.
* bang * In the instant the Spirit Formation was undone, the Dusty Throne broke through the dungeon and landed beside Xing Jue.
"He … he … he's actually not affected by Lord Throne in the slightest?"
Seeing Xing Jue standing beside the Dusty Throne being able to remain calm and composed as if nothing had happened, the crowd's mouths formed an 'O' shape.
However, at this instant, the faces of the four management elders were filled with excitement and excitement.
At this instant, the aged bodies of the four management elders started to tremble uncontrollably. The four old people who had lived for several hundred years were actually trembling, as if something they had anticipated for a long time had finally happened in front of their eyes. They were unable to control their excited emotions.
"Awaken, sit on it and try!" Just at this moment, Elder Tian Xiang spoke first. His tone was extremely gentle, and even contained a trace of fear. The difference between his attitude towards Xing Jue before could be said to be like the difference between heaven and earth.
Seeing the enormous change in Elder Tian Xiang's attitude towards him, Xing Jue's expression couldn't help but change slightly. Then, he turned his head around to look at the Dusty Throne next to him and thought, "Is this the status of the Dusty Throne in the Royal City?"
"Awaken, sit on it!" The other three elders also spoke at the same time. Their gazes were filled with anticipation.
"Awaken, sit on it!"
At the same time, the hundred elders behind them also spoke at the same time. Moreover, their voices were filled with reverence, as if they were speaking to an incomparably respectful person. Their attitudes were extremely humble.
"Master, sit on it!"
At this moment, Xiao Lian's childish voice suddenly came from behind Xing Jue. Looking over, Xing Jue realized that Xiao Lian, who was originally beside him, was actually sitting on the ground outside the dungeon. He was looking at Xing Jue with a bright and cute smile. Presumably, even he was resisted by the Dusty Throne and was pushed out.
Xing Jue smiled and waved his sleeve. Under everyone's extremely expectant gazes, he sat on the Dusty Throne.
Buzz.
The moment Xing Jue sat on the Dusty Throne, the color of the Dusty Throne actually began to change. The layer of black stony skin actually began to gradually fall off.
As the black stony skin fell off, the Dusty Throne actually began to emit rays of dazzling golden light. More and more stony skin fell off, and the light became brighter and brighter.
When all the stony skin had fallen off, the Dusty Throne that Xing Jue sat on actually turned into a giant golden square chair.
The golden radiance brightened up the dark dungeon. All sorts of ancient characters were engraved on the surface of the Dusty Throne, showing the ancient civilization.
But at that very instant, to the people in the Dusty Royal City, it was even more of a mental impact.
* whoosh *
"We pay our respects to the city lord!" Just at that time, the four manager elders actually uniformly half-knelt on the ground and paid their respects to Xing Jue.
"Elders, you …" Seeing that, Xing Jue's heart couldn't help but tighten. The thing he could not accept the most was elders paying their respects to him.
"We pay our respects to the city lord!"
But before even letting Xing Jue finish speaking, a thunderous voice already resounded within the dungeon.
Looking over, the hundred or so elders and disciples all uniformly knelt on the ground and paid their respects to Xing Jue!
