"I hope you can make it to my coronation ceremony." That was the first thing Xiao Gu said when he saw his friends.
It was very surprising.
"You're going to be crowned?" Ji Chae Yi looked at Xiao Gu.
"Yes, the earliest should be next month." Xiao Gu smiled bitterly. "Of course, that is if everything goes smoothly."
"Then … what about your father?" Lin Zijin looked at Xiao Gu.
"You all know the specifics. He shouldn't be able to last long. Two days ago, I met with King Qi … "Xiao Gu said as he glanced at Shirō Makino.
Xiao Bai also glanced at Xiao Gu.
"He said he will support me fully." Xiao Gu's expression was confused. "But I don't know if he's telling the truth."
"A person of King Qi's status shouldn't be lying," Xiao Bai said.
Everyone looked at Xiao Bai strangely. They didn't expect him to speak up for King Qi.
"That's a different matter." Shirō Makino smiled. "If he continues to find trouble with me and wants to kill me, I will fight him to the end."
"Even if I can successfully ascend to that position, I will still face a huge problem. That is … the enfeoffment of the kings. It will break the centralized power of the emperor." Xiao Gu sighed.
"Why would your father agree to something like that?" Liu asked.
"If nothing happened to father, of course he wouldn't agree. At that time, it was King Qi who pushed for this. If father didn't agree, after he left, King Qi would definitely support a puppet to take power. By then, the whole royal family … even the whole Ancestral Dragon would be in danger. If that's the case, it's better to agree. That way, after I ascend, even though I might have to face the disobedience of the kings, at least it's better than the kingdom being torn apart. "
Xiao Gu said in a low voice, "Once father leaves, regardless of the enfeoffment or not, the kings who hold the military will not stay still. Instead of that, it's better to give them a name, and then … "
He looked at Bai Muye and said, "What happens next will be a test for me!"
"If I can successfully resolve this matter, then the Empire will once again return to a highly unified era."
"If I fail, that means this is the fate of the Li royal clan."
Liu couldn't help but sigh, "It still sounds too risky."
"It is risky, but my father has no other choice." "But don't worry, I will take care of myself. I won't do anything stupid. Furthermore, don't I have Liu by my side to help me?"
Liu Zhiyuan smiled bitterly. "Your Highness is too kind. What can a young man like me do?"
Xiao Gu said, "Don't underestimate yourself. In reality, your talent is far beyond your age. Even someone in their forties or fifties might not be as capable as you in many aspects. Age does not determine one's ambition. Please guide me in the future! "
Liu said with a serious expression, "You're too polite."
Then, Xiao Gu came before Shirō Makino and said softly, "Boss, I'm sorry I can't roam the martial world with you anymore."
Shirō Makino looked at him and said, "Take care, don't delay your training. When we return, we will definitely be able to help you!"
Xiao Gu nodded vigorously. "I'll be waiting for that day! Don't make me wait too long! "
…
…
A starship silently passed through the atmosphere of Purple Cloud and quickly left the Purple Cloud System, flying toward the unfamiliar Tianhu System.
In the starship, the group of young people who had just won the Empire League were not in high spirits. Instead, they seemed a little down.
"It's not easy for Xiao Gu. He should have become a Super Soul Warrior." Shan Gu leaned back in his seat and said with a gloomy expression.
"Don't worry too much. The Emperor is much smarter than we thought. He will definitely pave the way for him," Shirō Makino said.
"Big brother, do you think the Emperor was really killed just like that? Why don't I believe it? "Lin Zijin looked at Shirō Makino.
"That's right. The Emperor is so wise. Besides, even if he was killed, he could have stored his memories. Why didn't he agree?" Ji Chae Yi also found it strange.
However, how could a group of youngsters possibly figure it out?
Soon, the starship was about to make a spatial jump. The group of people returned to their resting cabins to rest.
At the same time, on another starship, a group of people sat together and chatted with smiles on their faces.
This starship was not in a hurry to make a spatial jump. In fact, it even flew out of the Purple Cloud System.
Lin Qi, Lin Yue, and … Shangguan Wenping, who had changed his name to Duan Yong.
"Young Master Duan is amazing! The Duan family's golden name is also amazing, hahaha. "Lin Qi laughed proudly." A group of arrogant little brats. They won the Empire League and are so proud of themselves. But in the end, they still have to drink the water that Young Master Duan uses to wash his feet. "
"Haha, Elder Lin, you're too kind. You can't say that. It's the Tianhu Holy Land that's attractive, not that I have that kind of ability." Shangguan Wenping smiled.
Lin Yue sat to the side, his face full of joy. He did not think that this matter would go so smoothly.
The other party had actually been "tricked" into going to the Tianhu Holy Land.
Actually, it was not really a trick, because this was an open and aboveboard plot!
But this also showed how high Young Master Duan's status in the Tianhu Duan family was.
In a few minutes, he had settled the three Empire League League champions and entered the Duan family for training … What was ability? What was courage? What was ability?
And Young Master Duan had done all this just to pick up girls!
Who the f * ck would believe that?
Speaking of which, Lin Yue even felt a little envious of Lin Zijin.
Even if you were a super genius, even if you had the backing of the Lin family, which was not inferior to the Duan family.
But as a girl, to be able to meet someone of Young Master Duan's status was actually a very fortunate thing.
Why should she find someone she liked?
What did young people know about love?
If Lin Zijin could really get together with Young Master Duan this time, then one day in the future, she would definitely be grateful to me!
Lin Yue thought to himself.
After that, Shangguan Wenping left for a while. Then, everyone went to their respective rest cabins to rest.
This starship also began a space jump.
A few days later.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Muye's starship entered a very unfamiliar galaxy.
Unless one had a special interest in astronomy, it was impossible to recognize such a small galaxy.
And this was the Tianhu galaxy, the territory of the ancient Duan family.
After the starship flew in this galaxy for about two hours, a blue planet appeared in everyone's sight.
Everyone who had already woken up from their rest cabins came to the porthole to take a look.
"Wow, what a beautiful star. It looks a bit like the star our ancestors had in the Milky Way!" Lin Zijin held onto Shirō Makino's arm and looked excitedly at the blue planet in the depths of the universe.
"This kind of dark blue planet is usually caused by the vast ocean and relatively little land," Ji Caiyi said as she stood at the side.
"This is the Tianhu Star? The Duan family can actually have such a planet? This is unbelievable! One day, I'm going to build a planet like this. Then, I'll get some beautiful women from the Divine and the Blue Seas. Give me a few years, and I'll be able to create a race! "Shan Gu said with a serious expression.
Everyone rolled their eyes. They were speechless at this guy who always had wild ideas.
He only knew how to brag all day long. In fact, he was still an innocent little boy.
He didn't even know how to flirt with girls, and he still wanted to use a starship to get them back?
Was he engaged in human trafficking?
Soon, the starship from the Ancestral Dragon Royal Family sent an identification code to the other party and transmitted the information on this side.
Then, everyone saw a layer of light screen that looked like a beehive that enveloped the Tianhu Star first appeared. Then, a door seemed to open on it.
The spaceship flew into the door silently … Then, it was also sealed by the light screen.
"F * ck … This is the planet's defense system? This Tianhu Duan family … is so rich? "Shan Gu was a little stunned.
Xiao Bai and the others were also shocked. Zi Yun should have this thing, but they had never seen it used.
After all, the Flying Immortal Realm, which was often invaded by dimensional beings, did not have this thing.
It was not that they could not afford it, but the key was that it was useless.
This was because the planet's defense system could only be built outside the atmosphere. As for the invasion of the dimensional creatures, they always happened within the atmosphere!
They appeared in the sky not far from the ground.
Setting up this thing was extremely expensive, and it was not very practical. A powerful God-rank expert could break it in one blow.
Therefore, it was somewhat flashy but not practical. That was why Shan Gu said they were rich.
The spaceship passed through the atmosphere of the Tianhu Star and began to descend slowly.
The Tianhu Star was a three-star system!
Every day, three suns could be seen hanging high in the sky.
Two of the suns were relatively dim, and one was relatively bright.
The spaceship followed the ground navigation and slowly landed in the space center of an ancient city.
The moment the spaceship stopped, the empire's officials from the Ancestral Gragon went out to communicate with the Tianhu Duan Family, submit the information, and explain the situation.
"Why do I feel that coming here is like going abroad? They came out with us and acted so arrogantly. Those empire officials are quite polite to the Duan Family. "Shan Gu looked at the situation outside and could not help but laugh mockingly.
"Don't talk nonsense. The Tianhu Sacred Land's Duan Family is basically an independent country with complete sovereignty to the three empires. It's just that they have not publicly established a nation, "Ji Chae Yi said.
"There are less than one billion people on this planet, right?" Shan Gu looked at the information about the Tianhu Star on the screen in front of him and could not help but show some disdain.
It was not that he was arrogant. The key was that there were more than 50 billion people on the Flying Immortal Planet.
The Tianhu Star was not a small planet. On the contrary, it was huge!
The diameter of the planet was more than 200,000 kilometers!
It was not a big deal for such a huge planet to be inhabited by tens of billions of people.
Soon, the Ancestral Gragon officials finished their negotiations with the Tianhu Duan Family. When they returned, a woman who looked to be about 40 years old looked at Shirō Makino and the others and said in a low voice, "We have finished our negotiations. Now, I will give you a few instructions. Listen carefully.
"First, the Tianhu Sacred Land is not our Zulong Empire. So, your every word and action here represents the image of the entire empire.
"Second, try not to cause trouble. If trouble really comes knocking on your door, don't be afraid. The Tianhu Sacred Land will not specifically protect anyone. However, if there is a problem, they will not specifically help anyone! After entering the Tianhu Sacred Land, you will have to rely on yourself.
"Third, this time, there will be a total of three teams from the Sacred, Vast Ocean, and us. There will also be some people from the Tianhu Sacred Land who will enter the Tianhu Sacred Land for training. So, try to avoid conflict with others and learn to protect yourself.
"Fourth, we will wait here for you for a maximum of two months. In other words, after entering the Tianhu Sacred Land, you have to pay attention to the time. Once the time is over, we will leave immediately regardless of whether you return or not. "
Her gaze swept across the faces of Shirō Makino and the others. "Did you hear what I said? Do you understand? "
Shirō Makino glanced at the woman. In the end, the general meaning was actually one sentence: Don't cause trouble, don't embarrass the empire. If you really want to cause trouble, you can settle it yourself. If you come back late, we won't wait for you …
Alright, I will rely on myself. I have gotten used to it since I was young.
"Teacher …" Shan Gu raised his hand.
The woman glanced at Shan Gu and said indifferently, "What is it?"
"If the people from the other two empires secretly attack us and want to assassinate us, what should we do?" Shan Gu asked.
The woman frowned and glanced at Shan Gu. "If we are really bullied, we can't be too indifferent. Otherwise, it will damage the prestige of the empire."
Shan Gu rolled his eyes inwardly. "Will it be fine even if someone dies?"
The woman said, "I said before, after entering the Tianhu Sacred Land, you will rely on yourself! But I suggest that you do not touch the people of the Tianhu Duan Clan. I know that you young people are arrogant and full of youthful vigor, but it is best not to provoke them. After all, this is their territory. "
"Don't worry, Teacher!" Shan Gu smiled. "We will definitely be obedient!"
The woman glanced at Shan Gu and thought to herself, I hope so. But I heard that these people are quite good at causing trouble … In any case, I don't care anymore. They are all adults, and I will take responsibility for my own actions.
After that, Shirō Makino and the others left the spacecraft and sat in the commercial flying car sent by the Tianhu Sacred Land.
The flying car flew unhurriedly in this main city called Tianhu. Just like the other flying cars, there was nothing special about it.
But along the way, all the flying cars that met them would actively avoid them.
The person in charge of receiving them was a young man in his twenties. When he saw Lin Zijin, Ji Chae Yi, and Si Yin, these beautiful girls, he couldn't take his eyes off them. He basically stared at the three of them as he spoke.
To be more precise, he was bragging to the three girls … no, he was introducing Tianhu Planet.
"The surname Duan is a common surname on this planet, but almost all of them are remote branches of the Duan Clan. My name is Duan Feixing, and I am the great-great-grandson of the Duan Clan's Ninth Elder. Although I am not a direct descendant, my status on this planet is not bad. So if you need anything in the future, you can use my name, Duan Feixing. "
"Tianhu Planet is a habitable planet that our Duan Clan's ancestors chose with great difficulty. Actually, this planet is much better than the 72 Earthly Fiend Stars of your three empires! Hehe, not only is there the Tianhu Sacred Land, but there are also many scenic spots and special areas. If you are willing, I am willing to be your guide and bring the three of you to experience the customs of Tianhu Planet. Yes, there are many delicious foods! It will definitely be different from your Zulong Empire. "
F * ck!
You dare to seduce our young lady so blatantly?
Shan Gu was a little displeased. If it wasn't for the fact that he still had to go to the Tianhu Sacred Land, he almost couldn't help but fall out with them.
What the hell?
No matter how small the population was, there were still more than a billion people. How could they not find a beautiful girl?
They looked like they had never seen the world before!
Shan Gu glanced at Shirō Makino, but found that Xiao Bai seemed to be tired from the long journey and had already fallen asleep on the chair.
Brother Bai is really magnanimous!
Shan Gu muttered in his heart. He didn't think much of this Duan Clan kid either.
Similarly, Duan Feixing didn't think much of Shan Gu and Shirō Makino either.
Even if Shirō Makino was especially handsome, he didn't think much of it.
This wasn't the three empires!
This was the Duan Clan!
Here, only one voice was allowed, and that was the voice of the Duan Clan.
Didn't you see that even the officials of the three empires had to be polite when they came here?
"I still don't know your names?" Duan Feixing smiled at Lin Zijin, Ji Chae Yi and Si Yin.
He was mainly interested in Lin Zijin and Ji Chae Yi. As for the cute loli Si Yin, he wasn't too interested.
She was too short!
He didn't like short girls.
However, if he could take her in as a concubine, he would be happy to have sex with her once in a while.
Although the Duan Clan didn't establish a nation or become an emperor, on this planet, the Duan Clan wasn't much different from the royal family.
Someone with Duan Feixing's status could barely be called a prince.
Lin Zijin was expressionless. She leaned lightly on Shirō Makino's shoulder and pretended to sleep.
Ji Chae Yi couldn't be bothered to feign civility and didn't want to look at Duan Feixing anymore. However, since Xiao Bai didn't care about her, it would be rude if she didn't say a word.
Thus, she reluctantly replied, "Thank you, Young Master Duan, for your kind intentions. My name is Ji Chae Yi. She is Lin Zijin, and she is Si Yin … Our main purpose here is the Tianhu Sacred Ground."
Duan Feixing chuckled. "Actually, how should I put it … Sigh, forget it. I'll tell you. Who asked me to be so soft-hearted? I can't bear to see a beautiful lady being wronged."
Ji Chae Yi raised an eyebrow. She stared at Duan Feixing with her beautiful eyes. "Why do you say that, Young Master Duan?"
"Miss Chae Yi, you should know that the champion team of the Zulong Empire isn't the only one coming to the Tianhu Sacred Ground this time, right?" Duan Feixing looked at Ji Chae Yi with a burning gaze.
Ji Chae Yi resisted the urge to slap his face and nodded slightly.
"The champion teams of the high school league from the other two empires, the Holy Empire and the Vast Ocean Empire, will also be here," Duan Feixing said. "Actually, the Tianhu Sacred Ground isn't a place that we can enter even if we want to. So, it looks like you've obtained a great opportunity and creation. "
"Isn't that so?" Ji Chae Yi asked.
"You can say that it is, but … you can also say that it isn't." Duan Feixing smiled. "There are countless rare treasures in the Sacred Ground. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be easily opened to the outside world. But this time, although the Duan Family has given you these slots in order to befriend the three empires, in reality, it'll be very difficult for you to obtain those treasures even if you enter! "
"Why do you say that?" Ji Chae Yi asked.
"It's very simple. You don't know where the truly good things are, and you don't know how to obtain them. If you wander around on your own, you'll be in danger if you're not careful. Don't think that I'm joking. Although the Tianhu Sacred Ground belongs to the Duan Family, countless Duan Family disciples have died in there over the years. "
Duan Feixing said, "Not to mention that the elite prodigies of the Duan Family will also be entering this time. Do you think those people will let you obtain the benefits easily?"
"Then what do you suggest?" Ji Chae Yi glanced at him.
"Hehe, if there's someone from the Duan Family to guide you, this matter … will be much simpler!" Duan Feixing smiled. "I'm not talented, but I'm willing to be your guide. This is because I happen to be the next person to enter the Tianhu Sacred Ground!"
"Congratulations, Young Master Duan. It seems like Young Master Duan is also a young prodigy of the Duan Family." Ji Chae Yi glanced at Shirō Makino, who was still sleeping. She smiled and declined politely. "However, I still have to thank Young Master Duan for your kind offer. We're only here to broaden our horizons. We don't have any other intentions."
Duan Feixing looked deeply at Ji Chae Yi, then at Shirō Makino, who was resting with his eyes closed. He smiled and said, "Oh? That's fine too. In any case, it's fate that brought us together. I'll give you my contact details. Miss Chae Yi, if you encounter any difficulties, feel free to contact me. "
"If that's the case, I'll have to thank you." Ji Chae Yi nodded.
Faced with such people, if there wasn't any deep hatred between them, one couldn't ignore them completely. Moreover, one couldn't offend them.
A gentleman could be deceived, but a villain couldn't.
Those who did bad things were usually petty and narrow-minded villains.
Although Duan Feixing couldn't be certain that he was such a villain, it wouldn't hurt to be cautious.
Heroine Ji was reckless, but when she wasn't reckless, she was also very rational, especially when she was outside.
Just look at the rest of them, including Xiao Bai. Deep down, they weren't people with good tempers.
That was a little worrying.
