This could be considered a promise from the Haotian Emperor. At the very least, if there was any trouble in that province in the future, the Haotian Sect could be directly used.
This was a rare opportunity. Xiao Chen took the opportunity to ask the two Sect Masters some questions about Martial Techniques. Furthermore, he asked about the Thunder King.
However, the Haotian Emperor was tight-lipped and did not reveal too much to Xiao Chen.
Only after Xiao Chen left did the Haotian Emperor's expression change slightly. He asked, "Ao Gu, what do you think of this Xiao Chen?"
Ao Gu thought for a while before replying, "At such a young age, he already has the air of a grandmaster. If nothing unexpected happens, he might grow to the level of the Qing Emperor back then."
The Haotian Emperor whispered, "The Thunder King made a move on his behalf!"
When Ao Gu heard this, his expression suddenly changed. He exclaimed, "Is that true? The Thunder King made a move? "
The Thunder King was a powerful Sovereign Martial Emperor of the same generation as the Qing Emperor. However, the Qing Emperor's brilliance was too great, causing the Haotian Emperor to overlook this person.
It was only after the Qing Emperor died that the Thunder King made a move a few times, easily destroying a few Deity Race Divine Kings. Only then did the Haotian Emperor start to take this incredible major character seriously.
However, the Thunder King had not made a move for many years already. He rarely even showed himself. The matters of the Bushin Palace had also been neglected for many years, handed over to the strongest Holy Lord, the Holy Lord Vermilion Bird.
Everyone had nearly forgotten this name. Unexpectedly, the Thunder King made a move again.
The Haotian Emperor nodded and said, "At our level, the news has already spread. With one bolt of Heavenly Lightning, he destroyed two of the Deity Race's Blue Robed Emperors. The Deity Race's Deity Sovereign did not say anything. Instead, he sent someone to apologize. "
"It seems that the Qing Emperor really had a backup plan and asked this old friend for help."
Ao Gu said, "However, the Thunder King doesn't have much time left in his lifespan. The Qing Emperor has been dead for over ten thousand years. For him to be able to live until now is already quite heaven-defying. The next ten thousand years tribulation should be coming soon."
A Sovereign Martial Emperor would go through a Time Tribulation every one thousand years. If one did not die and lived for more than ten thousand years, they would die. Every thousand years, this tribulation was called the Ten Thousand Lifespan Tribulation, and each tribulation was harder than the last.
A large part of the reason why the Thunder King was a legendary character was that he was the Sovereign Martial Emperor who had undergone this tribulation the most times.
The time tribulation was the harvest of the Heavenly Dao on Sovereign Martial Emperors. Normally, if one could clear it once, one would be lucky to not die. Someone who could clear it again and again was truly heaven-defying. The Thunder King was such a heaven-defying character.
The Haotian Emperor said, "That is hard to say. The Thunder King is a living legend. From a certain point of view, he is even higher than the Qing Emperor. After all, he is still alive, but the Qing Emperor is already dead."
Ao Gu thought of something and asked, "Sect Master, what do you mean?"
The Haotian Emperor nodded and said, "That's right. What I mean is to tie the fate of the Haotian Sect to Xiao Chen's. Back then, I stood on his side. In the future, I will stand on his side to the end."
Ao Gu could not help but admire the Haotian Emperor's courage. Back then, the Qing Emperor had left behind many enemies. Despite the situation being unclear, Ao Gu chose to stand on Xiao Chen's side. Most Emperor Wu would not have had the courage to do so.
However, if Xiao Chen really rose up, the Haotian Sect would gain endless benefits. However, if it failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Risk and opportunity coexisted. Only a truly bold person would dare to play this game of chess. The Thunder King's move gave the Haotian Emperor great confidence, allowing him to continue playing this game of chess.
The Haotian Emperor also had his own goals. The human race needed a leader, and the Kunlun Great Realm needed a leader. He needed to complete the path that the Qing Emperor did not complete, to complete the path that the predecessors did not complete.
The Haotian Emperor could not continue, but that did not mean that Xiao Chen could not.
After Xiao Chen left the inner hall, he did not know that the Haotian Emperor had already decided to stand behind him because of the Thunder King's move.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was preparing to use the space-time tunnel to return to the Kunlun Continent's Haotian Province. He had a mountain peak with a Peak Spirit Vein there. He could use it to stabilize his cultivation and cultivate the Firmament Body Tempering Art to Great Perfection.
"Haha! Junior Brother Xiao Chen, you really made Senior Sister wait for a long time. That's not right. I should call you the White Robed King now. With one million military merits, you are the youngest conferred Sovereign Personage of the Bushin Palace. "
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared before Xiao Chen at the corner of the corridor.
When Xiao Chen saw who it was, he could not help but rejoice. He exclaimed, "First Senior Sister, why are you here?"
That was right. The person who came was his First Senior Sister, Shui Lingling.
After not seeing her for two years, she had become even more elegant. Her gentle face looked even more exquisite. When she smiled faintly, no one dared to look at her carefully.
Beside the Haotian Planet's space-time tunnel, Xiao Chen and Shui Lingling casually sat under a lush Spirit Tree, chatting about their experiences.
"White Robed King? Who spread that nickname? I don't think I have a Sovereign Personage yet. "
Naturally, Xiao Chen found the White Robed King that Shui Lingling mentioned funny and helpless. Could it be that one had to be called such an unsophisticated name just because they wore white?
Shui Lingling covered her mouth and smiled gently. "I think that's pretty good. When the Bushin Palace conferred you a Sovereign Personage, you can go and fight for it. This Sovereign Personage sounds pretty nice."
"Oh, right. This is a greeting gift for you."
A crystalline silver flower petal with bubbles floating on it appeared in her palm. Then, Shui Lingling handed it to Xiao Chen and said, "This is a specialty of the Starry Heaven Silver Lake, the petals of the Heavenly Silver Flower."
Xiao Chen received the silver flower petal and looked at it silently. The silver flower petal looked incredibly fresh and tender. He could even see the pathways on the leaves clearly. Strands of glassy silver energy flowed rapidly within it.
When Xiao Chen felt the energy contained in it, he was startled. Unexpectedly, this tiny silver flower petal contained vast and pure Law Energy.
That was right. This was Law Energy, not some Spiritual Energy of the world. After one absorbed it, one would need to convert it into their own Law Energy.
If one consumed it directly, one would not need to do anything, and one's Law Energy would increase by ten to twenty percent.
This was too precious. Such a natural treasure that could allow a Martial Sage to increase their cultivation was simply too precious.
Shui Lingling could tell what Xiao Chen was worried about. She consoled him softly, "Just take it. The flower petal is only effective the first time. I already used it once. If I used it again, it would be a waste."
Xiao Chen put away the flower petal. He could not help but feel somewhat embarrassed. Unexpectedly, he did not have any presentable gift on hand.
Naturally, the most valuable thing in the Universe Ring was the twenty Longevity Fruits. However, Shui Lingling was still in her prime. She still had a long lifespan left. It would not be appropriate to give them away.
There was also the Lunar Cassia Flower in the Immortal Spirit Ring. The Lunar Cassia Flower was pretty good. Unfortunately, it was not as good as the Heavenly Silver Flower.
Xiao Chen could only make a mental note of this. In the future, when he obtained something good, he would return the favor.
After undergoing experiential training in the Starry Heaven Silver Lake, Shui Lingling's current strength had already reached peak Medial Grade Martial Sage. She was only a step shy of advancing to Superior Grade Martial Sage.
Shui Lingling's aura was even more withdrawn and drawn out. Her cultivation was not exaggerated at all. In fact, it was even more stable than Xiao Chen's.
"The sons of the Three Holy Masters have not been conferred Kingship, but you have. I received news that Xiao Hou Jue and Feng Wuji are very dissatisfied. I'm afraid that the King conferral ceremony will not be peaceful," Shui Lingling said when she thought of something.
Xiao Chen leaned against a tree trunk as leaves drifted before him. When he heard this, he smiled and said, "I expected it long ago. What will come will come. I will wait for them."
"There is one more thing. Di Wuque has decided to hold a Heroes' Convention two years from now and erect a Heroes' Monument. Right now, he is trying to gather all the outstanding talents of the younger generation. "
Heroes' Convention? What is Di Wuque trying to do?
Shui Lingling said cautiously, "Don't underestimate Di Wuque. He is very ambitious. If the Heroes' Convention can be held as scheduled, he will establish his supreme prestige and gather a vast amount of Luck."
Who in the world is a hero? Who dares to call themselves a hero?
Since ancient times, no one had ever held a Heroes' Convention. The reason was none other than the word "hero" being too heavy.
If Xiao Chen really erected the Heroes' Monument and carved the names of all the outstanding talents of this era on it, he would be able to gather a large amount of Luck.
Xiao Chen frowned and said, "His ambition is too blatant. What if others do not come?"
Shui Lingling said helplessly, "This is his scheme. If you do not come, you will worry about others going. If someone else's name is carved on the Heroes' Monument, you will suffer a great loss. If your name is not on the Heroes' Monument, you will naturally be excluded.
"In the end, he is using his current prestige to gather Luck, gathering all the geniuses of this era by his side. He is taking the initiative to become the only main character of this era.
"If you follow his wishes, you can be a supporting character. If you do not, you will not even be considered a supporting character when your name is not on the Heroes' Monument."
Xiao Chen looked into the distance and entered deep thought. Di Wuque was forcing him to a dead end.
Given Xiao Chen's character, he naturally could not participate in the Heroes' Convention that Di Wuque held. However, if everyone in the world participated in this Heroes' Convention, what would happen to Xiao Chen?
When a great "influence" was formed, one would often be helpless. If one did not look down on the Heroes' Monument, the prestige of the Heroes' Monument would not exist.
If everyone in the world believed in the word "hero," then one would not be a hero if one's name was not on the Heroes' Monument.
Xiao Chen organized his thoughts and said, "First Senior Sister, you must have other intentions for telling me all this, right?"
Shui Lingling nodded and said, "I got to know a good friend during the battle at the Starry Heaven Silver Lake. He fought with Di Wuque three times and did not end up at a disadvantage in any of them. He asked me to tell you that he wants to work with you to hold a Blue Dragon Convention as well. "
Xiao Chen moved his body somewhat lazily. He tapped the ground with his right hand and smiled at the empty space in front of him. "This friend of First Senior Sister's is rather unique. He likes to eavesdrop on others. Unfortunately, while he hid his head well, he did not hide his tail well. "
"Ka ca!
Ka ca! "While Xiao Chen tapped the ground casually, strands of saber Qi were hidden in it. Suddenly, strands of purple electric saber Qi shot out from the ground five hundred meters in front of him.
The person hidden in the air had not expected Xiao Chen to discover him. He had not expected Xiao Chen to attack without saying anything.
He revealed himself and gently drifted away, leaving behind blood-red afterimages. When the afterimages merged with each other, Xiao Chen's eyes lit up.
