Jiang Wang could feel the weight of their gazes.
He could also feel the emotions in their gazes.
Amidst the heated, envious, and suspicious gazes of the crowd, Jiang Wang thought of the widely circulated words that were used to evaluate the current Emperor.
"The current Emperor is a mighty ruler. No matter if it's kindness or punishment, there's no difference!"
There was no reward, no punishment.
Today, because he helped Qi take first place at the River Viewing Platform and spread his name across the world, Emperor Qi was extremely honored.
If he made a mistake in the future, what would happen when the Emperor got angry?
It wasn't that today's Son of Heaven Qi was so fake. In fact, Emperor Qi's reward this time was already very exceptional. Everyone could feel how important Emperor Qi was to him.
His performance at the Master's Ceremony had already received the Emperor's praise. This time, his performance at the River Viewing Platform was undeniable. There was nothing to nitpick about, and he had made Qi proud.
Although the reward was heavy, he could accept it!
Jiang Wang just reminded himself that he still had a long way to go, and he needed to be careful.
Today was his most glorious moment in Qi. With the title of Yellow River Champion and the number one Inner House in the world, he was rewarded by Emperor Qi in front of Da Qi's Imperial Ancestral Temple.
He was already Grade 3 and had a sword with him!
Although he didn't have any real power, at least in name, he had already jumped into the upper echelons of Qi. His future was also filled with expectations.
However, the Emperor's kindness and punishment were all up to the Emperor.
He should know what was the true foundation of a person's life.
The glory in front of him stopped in front of him. As for the future, it would depend on how he walked.
Jiang Wang took three steps forward. Every step was firm and steady.
He didn't show any arrogance or fear.
He just cupped his hands in front of him and bowed deeply, "I'm deeply grateful and thank the Emperor for his kindness! I will work hard and don't dare to slack off! "
On the viewing platform, the current Marquis of City Destroying Li Zhengyan looked at the youth in the center of the square and was amazed. At such a young age, he had achieved so much and enjoyed so much glory, but his eyes were still so clear.
People like him knew the importance of being 'clear-headed.' Those who weren't clear-headed enough might be able to make a name for themselves for a while, but they couldn't make a name for themselves forever.
It was even more commendable that a nineteen-year-old Tianjiao was able to remain clear-headed in the face of unprecedented glory.
It was no wonder that someone like his brother would praise this young man so much.
Back then, Li Longchuan was on good terms with Chung Geng Sheng and Jiang Wang. Naturally, he stood against Jung Genzun and Wang Yiwu. He was still somewhat dissatisfied. It was only because he trusted Li Longchuan and knew that his son always had a sense of propriety that he didn't say anything.
Now it seemed that among all the sons and daughters of noble officials, there really weren't many who could compare with Jiang Wang.
From a utilitarian point of view, Li Longchuan's friendship was worth it!
Thinking of this, Li Zhengyan suddenly laughed.
If his elder brother were to hear his thoughts, he would reprimand him for thinking too much about mundane matters and being tainted with vulgarity!
However …
How many of the court officials and nobles in the world could be exempt from this "vulgarity"?
He thought to himself. Who knew how long the clarity in this young man's eyes would last!
After the ceremonial official finished announcing the decree, a group of eunuchs walked out in a line, carrying the rewards on jade trays.
On the first jade tray, there was an exquisitely made storage box, and the thousand primeval stones were stored inside.
On the second jade tray were land deeds and house deeds. They were held down by a key, representing a mansion in Linzi City. Qi had dominated the east region for decades. The mansions in Linzi City were different from other places, and it was difficult to buy one even if one had money. If one didn't have the corresponding power and status, one wouldn't be able to stay for long even if one bought one.
On the third tray was a jade token. It was the proof to go to the emperor's treasury to choose a supreme dao technique.
On the fourth jade tray, there was a neatly folded outer garment. It looked really bright, but he didn't know what was so special about it.
It was only now that Jiang Wang realized that the Ruyi Celestial Robe was probably the most valuable one among all the rewards!
It wasn't that he had a discerning eye and was able to tell the difference in one look. It was that among the four eunuchs who brought out the trays, the first three were ordinary eunuchs. Only the last one was the eunuch of the Ceremony Directorate, and it was Qiu Ji, whom he was familiar with!
The statuses of the recipients were so different, so the "gifts" were naturally divided into noble and lowly!
In particular, Qiu Ji's eyes were smiling. It was obvious that he approved of this "gift". This was a silent hint.
Speaking of which, the emperor really put in a lot of effort into the rewards this time.
Even the last reward was given by Qiu Ji, who had already met him once, to deliver it.
The eunuchs holding the jade trays walked forward one by one and presented the rewards.
Jiang Wang didn't hesitate and accepted them one by one in the square in front of everyone.
Strictly speaking, it was slightly rude here. Under normal circumstances, such rewards would be sent to the residence after the event. However, everyone knew that before receiving the deed for the house and land, Jiang Wang didn't have his own residence in Linzi.
He had always been living in Chung Geng Sheng's residence and didn't have a housekeeper or the like to receive it on his behalf …
Before a wild grass could become a dragon, it would take some time to make up for it.
It was worth mentioning that when Jiang Wang received the storage box, he deftly moved all the primeval stones in the box back into his own storage box. Then, he planned to return the empty storage box to the jade tray.
However, the eunuch took a step back and avoided it.
Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment before he understood. His liver was burning with anger.
That despicable Chongxuan Fatty!
Why would he be so calculative about the rewards given by Qi Ting and insist on taking back a storage box? When he received the title of Qing Yang Man, he was clearly tricked by that fatty!
On both sides of the high platform, many people laughed softly.
Obviously, they didn't expect that the hero of Da Qi, Tianjiao, would be so "honest and simple". When he heard that it was a thousand primeval stones, he really thought that it was only primeval stones and even wanted to return the storage box!
At first, some people frowned and thought that he was so stingy that he even wanted to check it in front of the emperor!
Jiang Wang forced himself to calm down and not let his embarrassment be too obvious. He put away the storage box made by Qi Ting as if nothing had happened and looked at Qiu Ji as if nothing had happened.
Qiu Ji was still smiling gently and didn't have any intention of mocking him. The last person held the jade tray and moved his feet.
Suddenly, Jiang Wuyou's voice came from the Pill Emperor's seat.
"The Tianjiao of the countries will compete, and the winner will be the good man of Da Qi!"
She stood up from the table and revealed a heroic smile. "I will personally wear this robe for Jiang Wang!"
On the phoenix chair, the Empress turned her head to look at the Emperor. She still couldn't see his expression. She also didn't say anything.
Crown Prince Jiang Wuhua's expression was calm, as if he didn't hear anything.
Jiang Wuxie put a red fruit that was already in her mouth back on the tray.
It was worth mentioning that compared to the Master's Ceremony last time,
Jiang Wuqi's seating position didn't change. He was still next to his brothers and sisters, and it seemed that he was still one of the four palace lords with the highest chance of competing for the throne.
However, he could no longer sit in front of Son of Heaven Qi like last time.
At this moment, he was sitting with a fox fur coat draped over his shoulders, and his face looked paler than usual. Although he was smiling, he felt that it was very difficult.
Jiang Wuyou's strong and long legs seemed to be stepping on many people's hearts.
She walked down the Pill Emperor's seat step by step and walked to Qiu Ji's side. She picked up the immortal robe and held it in her left hand. Then, she walked past without looking back.
From the beginning to the end, Qiu Ji lowered his head slightly and was very respectful.
Jiang Wuyou held the Ruyi Immortal Robe with one hand and walked in front of Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang looked into her eyes and felt that she was hinting at something.
However, Jiang Wuyou didn't make any small talk. She just smiled at him and said, "In the ancient times, the Nine Great Immortal Palaces dominated the world. This Ruyi Immortal Robe came from one of them. "
Jiang Wang's heart skipped a beat.
Another thing related to the Nine Great Immortal Palaces!
If one were to say that Tianjiao Qi had put in a lot of effort in rewarding him, then this reward was the one that showed his effort!
His Instant Meteoric Success Technique had been seen by the world at the Riverview Platform. There were so many powerful cultivators in the various countries, and there were definitely many that recognized the Immortal Palaces.
To Qi Ting, it was no secret that Jiang Wang had part of the Immortal Palaces' inheritance.
That was why he had this Ruyi Immortal Robe!
It wasn't just a formal reward, but also a reward that was just right and useful.
It was found in Da Qi's treasury and specially given to Jiang Wang.
Emperor Qi either didn't reward him, or he would make people die for him.
Jiang Wang didn't show any emotion on his face.
However, Jiang Wuyou only shook the Ruyi Immortal Robe open, and the light flowed in the air until she took a few steps forward. It seemed that there were still remnants of the light, which was dazzling.
Jiang Wuyou walked behind Jiang Wang. At this distance, she could feel Jiang Wang's unique temperament.
She seemed to be able to hear his heartbeat. It was so calm and steady, like a song. Singing the story of this young man's journey.
With her status as the Empress, she had undoubtedly made a very successful investment. As for how successful it was, she could tell from how unwilling her Ninth Brother was.
As the Empress, "vision" was also a very important talent, which could add a lot of color to her.
Putting aside her status as the Empress, she did see a special characteristic in Jiang Wang that was different from others. Obviously, he was still very young, and his strength was far from those true powerhouses, but he gave off a very reliable feeling.
It seemed that there was nothing this person couldn't do.
If there was a day when they could get along purely as friends, it would be a different feeling.
After hearing that Jiang Wang had won first place, Chung Geng Sheng was so excited at the Riverview Platform that he was about to go crazy.
With her understanding of that fatty, she only felt that it was very rare. Although Chung Geng Sheng was always smiling and cheeky and shameless, there were really too few moments when he truly let go.
From this angle, Jiang Wang's long black hair quietly hung down, simply tied up with a hair band.
Of course, she could also feel that there was a mysterious pattern on his back, where his spine and cervical vertebrae intersected.
In it, the will of "God" had been obliterated, and only some kind of original aura remained.
It was said that when he was at the Riverview Platform, it guided the starlight, causing the stars to suddenly appear and the sky to fall into night, helping him to nail down Qin Zhizhen's magical iron wall.
She suddenly wanted to see what kind of magnificent scene that was.
Of course, there was a matter at this moment.
She unfolded the Ruyi Immortal Robe and personally put it on Jiang Wang's body.
The colorful immortal robe silently hid its brilliance and turned into an ordinary green robe, covering Jiang Wang's original clothes.
On the high platform, Chongxuan's Mingguang was so envious that his teeth ached.
The Son of Heaven bestowed a gift, the Empress put on a robe!
What kind of glory was this!
He looked at his Tianjiao son, who was peerless and peerless, but was casually sent away.
He couldn't help but curl his lips.
Hmph, a mere guest!
When Jiang Wang put on the Ruyi Immortal Robe, he already understood the ability of this immortal robe.
The size of this robe could change at will. Needless to say, it was comfortable to wear, and almost all treasured robes had the effect of avoiding dust.
From the moment it was put on, it was absorbing his power in a way that he still couldn't fully understand. Dao essence, blood qi … it seemed that any kind of power could be used. It was not "picky" and would stop when it reached a saturation level.
At first glance, it felt very strange. But this kind of absorption was very subtle and gentle, and would not cause harm to the host. The speed of absorbing Dao essence was far slower than the speed of automatically producing Dao essence in the Heavenly Palace. The speed of absorbing blood qi was not as fast as the speed of the human body automatically recovering blood qi.
This method of absorption gave him the feeling that it was very similar to the feeling of the Ethereal Palace absorbing vitality in the void. It might be some kind of method that was common in the Immortal Palace era.
At the same time, he could also take the initiative to pour power into it to speed up its absorption.
And the power absorbed by the Ruyi Immortal Robe formed a hidden array pattern.
This array pattern had two effects. One was to preserve power and return it to the host at any time. The second was to resist different degrees of damage according to the consumption of power. At present, the limit of its defense was unknown.
Compared to its defense, Jiang Wang was more concerned about the former.
In a sense, this immortal robe could be equivalent to twice the amount of Dao essence or blood qi reserves!
The so-called Ruyi Immortal Robe seemed to not only be able to change size at will, but also "Ruyi" here.
It was a pity that it could not absorb the light of the divine ability. Jiang Wang secretly tried it, but there was no reaction.
In the end, it could not be compared to Qin Zhizhen's Myriad Transformations …
As for the information of the Immortal Palace that this immortal robe represented, he did not obtain any.
These feelings only turned in his heart, and Jiang Wang bowed softly. "Thank you for your trouble, Palace Master Huaying."
"For my Da Qi warrior, I also feel honored. What trouble is there?"
Jiang Wuyou pulled away, looked at him from afar, and nodded in satisfaction. Only then did he walk back to the high platform openly and without any hesitation.
Truly valiant and formidable.
Civil and military officials, nobles, and the common people were all watching.
She walked between Jiang Wang and Son of Heaven Qi, wearing a gorgeous palace robe, like a dragon walking.
At the end of the path of the "Dragon Walking", Son of Heaven Qi sat alone on the dragon throne, silent and imposing.
And at the starting point of the "Dragon Walking", Jiang Wang, wearing the Ruyi Immortal Robe, stood calmly in the huge square in front of the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
He was 19 years old, and his words and smile were all focused on.
The corners of his eyebrows and the tips of his hair were full of spirit.
At the same time.
The officials were illustrious, full of clothes.
He was in the center.
It was the day, the 55th year of the Yuanfeng Da Qi, the 21st of July.
It was already the end of summer, and autumn was still far away.
There was no need for spring breeze, so naturally, he was proud!
