"Hmm?" Gu Wuyou froze when he saw Nie Tian's rare serious expression.
"General Gu, I want to see the emperor of Great Chu before I die. Can you do that for me?" Nie Tian asked in a deep voice, his face somewhat grim.
"See His Majesty the Emperor?" Gu Wuyou's voice changed, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
"Yes." Nie Tian had expected Gu Wuyou's reaction, but he still nodded seriously.
What was the most difficult person to see in the world?
It wasn't the sect masters of the major sects or the patriarchs of the aristocratic families, but the emperors of the various empires.
Empires were different from sects and aristocratic families.
In sects and aristocratic families, the strongest person was usually the sect master, the sect master, and the patriarch.
But in empires, the emperor wasn't usually the strongest person in the country.
This created a common problem among emperors: fear of death.
Because they weren't strong, emperors were afraid of death and rarely saw them.
When Nie Yurou was kidnapped, Nie Tian had to ask the crown prince to see the emperor of Blue Cloud. Otherwise, he would have to barge into the palace.
The emperor of Blue Cloud was only the emperor of a third-rate empire, but the emperor of Great Chu was the emperor of a first-rate empire. It was even more difficult to see him.
Moreover, Nie Tian was a stranger from the northern sea region. Now that he was a sinner, it was almost impossible to see the emperor.
When Nie Tian said he wanted to see the emperor, Gu Wuyou's eyes were filled with killing intent. He even suspected that Nie Tian was an assassin!
Saving someone for no reason, entering the prison shamelessly, and now he wanted to see the emperor.
No matter how he thought about it, Nie Tian's behavior was very strange.
"General Gu, don't misunderstand. I'm definitely not an assassin. I just want to talk to your emperor about the crown prince." Nie Tian could tell what Gu Wuyou was thinking.
"Talk to the crown prince?" Gu Wuyou's eyes were filled with mockery. His expression was clearly saying: Who do you think you are? The sect master of Battle Cloud Sect? Do you want to interfere in the affairs of Great Chu?
"I can't do it." Gu Wuyou didn't hesitate and refused Cold.
She was not heartless, and she really could not do it.
To suddenly bring a prisoner on death row from the Celestial Prison to see the Emperor, this action almost made people think of it as a rebellion.
Nie Tian knew that Gu Wuyou really didn't have this ability, so he could only look at Duanmu Lu. He curled his lips and said, "Duanmu Lu, since General Gu can't help, you'll have to think of a way to meet the Emperor. My old life is in your hands. Whether or not I can see the Emperor depends on you. "
"Teacher, I …" Duanmu Lu's expression actually carried a trace of sorrow, and then he nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry Teacher, even if I have to risk my life, I'll surely allow the Emperor of the Darchu Dynasty to meet you."
Gu Wuyou frowned slightly and looked at Duanmu Lu speechlessly. He thought to himself, 'Can't you tell that your weird teacher is teasing you?'
To be honest, Nie Tian wasn't really teasing Duanmu Lu. Although there was no danger when he entered the Celestial Prison, the matter of meeting the Emperor of the Darchu Dynasty really fell on Duanmu Lu.
This fellow, Duanmu Lu, was too straightforward. Leaving this matter to him was also a form of training.
"Alright. Teacher's life is in your hands. You must let me meet the Emperor of the Darchu Dynasty. "Nie Tian nodded heavily, his expression tense. After speaking, he turned and walked towards the Celestial Prison.
Duanmu Lu looked at Nie Tian's back, hot tears already flowing out of his eyes. He said solemnly, "Teacher, don't worry. I definitely won't disappoint you."
Gu Wuyou was speechless when she saw Duanmu Lu's sorrowful expression. This pair of teacher and disciple are the weirdest of weirdos. The teacher is as slippery as a loach, and the disciple is as honest as an old bull.
Nie Tian's figure quickly disappeared, but Duanmu Lu was still looking at him with a sorrowful expression.
"Let's go." Gu Wuyou looked at Duanmu Lu and couldn't help but shake her head and frown. She turned his head around and said rudely.
"Go?" Duanmu Lu finally reacted. He asked in a daze, "Where are we going?"
"Think of a way for your weirdo teacher. Beg Old Master to pray to Bodhisattva. See how you can let him meet the Emperor before he 'dies,'" Gu Wuyou said with a sigh. Her tone was extremely helpless.
Although she refused verbally, Gu Wuyou would still help Nie Tian.
When she saw Nie Tian's gaze just now, that kind of strong confidence made her, a soldier who came from the battlefield, shiver involuntarily.
Therefore, she concluded that Nie Tian definitely couldn't be an assassin.
Moreover, this Duanmu Lu in front of her was also a weirdo. If she relied on him to think of a way for Nie Tian, he would probably barge into the palace.
The Darchu Dynasty was a first-rate empire. The security of the palace was unimaginably tight. There were tens of thousands of Imperial Guards and countless imperial Secret Guards. If Duanmu Lu barged in, it was guaranteed that not even dregs would be left of his corpse.
Gu Wuyou didn't know why, but she had a strange feeling about Duanmu Lu. She had an impulse to help him.
"Thank you, Miss." Duanmu Lu was extremely grateful. He said, "I am Duanmu Lu. May I know your name?"
"Gu Wuyou," Gu Wuyou replied Coldly. She thought to herself, "You're really wooden. You live up to your surname."
"Mm, carefree. Good name. I'm guessing that your younger sister must be called Gu Wuyou. "It was rare for Duanmu Lu to make a corny joke.
"…" Gu Wuyou's face darkened. She couldn't be bothered with him.
On the other side, Nie Tian was led by two prison guards into the Darchu Heavenly Prison that he had "dreamed of."
This was a deep tunnel with dim lighting. On both sides were cells that looked like iron cages.
The prisoners in the cells on both sides ran out and stretched their hands out of the cages, all of them looking extremely excited.
"Look, there's new meat. And a handsome youth. "
"Yes. Look at him. He's very handsome. His skin is also tender. I wonder who's lucky enough to be in the same cage as him. "
"I'm so envious. Someone will be able to enjoy themselves at night."
The two prison guards heard the prisoners' shouts and snickered. They would glance at Nie Tian from time to time as if they wanted to see him pee his pants.
Unfortunately, Nie Tian was as calm as a pool of stagnant water. He didn't react at all and treated the shouts as if they didn't exist.
In fact, Nie Tian thought that there was some reaction. He thought to himself, 'These prisoners have good taste. They can actually see my handsomeness.'
Very quickly, Nie Tian passed through many iron doors and was brought to a place without any light.
The two prison guards snickered. One of them went to pull a short and heavy iron door.
"Clatter clatter!" With the sound of iron chains being pulled, the iron door was opened. Dazzling light shone in. Soon after, the sound of a tsunami could be heard, as if a crowd was boiling over.
"You dog, you dared to kill the Crown Prince's brother-in-law. You must be tired of living. Go to hell." One of the prison guards behind Nie Tian pushed him fiercely. A cold laugh came from behind him.
