When Tan Xiu and Gu Yan 'er came out of the Heavenly Abode artifact, Tan Xiu brought the two mid-stage Perfected Golden Immortals into the artifact. Looking at their indifferent expressions, Tan Xiu slowly took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff. Then, he said, "Do you two think that I'm inferior to an ant just because I'm only an ordinary Immortal?"
"I dare not."
Their lives were in Tan Xiu's hands, so they still shook their heads despite having such thoughts in their hearts.
"I don't like subordinates who only agree on the surface but oppose on the inside," said Tang Xiu lightly. "What's more, I don't like subordinates who speak insincere. "You just need to answer me truthfully, don't you?"
"Understood!"
Zenith Venerable and Seaway Monarch answered at the same time.
Tan Xiu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then, you two answer my question. How long has it taken you to embark on the path of cultivation until now? "
"6,432 years," answered Zenith Venerable.
"5,320 years," answered Seaway Monarch.
Tang Xiu asked again, "With your memories, do you still remember how long it took for you to become an Immortal from the time you set foot on the path of cultivation? Tell me. "
Zenith Venerable and Seaway Monarch exchanged glances. They faintly realized what Tan Xiu wanted to say and immediately sneered inwardly. They were once peerless geniuses of their respective Immortal Domains, and their cultivation speed was countless times faster than others.
"This subordinate took 423 years," answered Zenith Venerable.
"This subordinate took 399 years," answered Seaway Monarch.
"It's so-so. Not bad." Tan Xiu nodded. "But do you know how long it has been since I embarked on the path of cultivation?"
Both shook their heads at the same time.
"I'm not even 30 years old yet," said Tan Xiu indifferently.
"What?"
Disbelief was written all over their faces as they exclaimed at the same time.
They were all Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals, and their willpower was already very heaven-defying, but they were still frightened by Tan Xiu's words. This was because they had never heard of anyone who could cultivate from a mortal to the Immortal Realm in less than 30 years. Even the Supreme Martial Artists of the past had not been able to do it. Even those who became immortals within a hundred years could only be counted on one hand, right?
Tan Xiu said indifferently, "You don't need to be shocked, and you don't need to suspect that I have a noble bloodline. I'm just an ordinary person. It hasn't even been thirty years since I was born, and I've already become an immortal. Now, you should understand what I want to say, right? "
Zenith Venerable and Seaway Monarch glanced at each other again. Although they still found it hard to believe, their attitudes had greatly changed. With a hint of respect, they said, "We understand. Master, your aptitude is heaven-defying, more terrifying than any peerless genius in the past. In time, I believe Master will become even stronger and cultivate even faster. "
"It's good that you understand," Tan Xiu said with a faint smile. "So, the reason why I'm talking to you today is to tell you that if you do your best to serve me, I'll return your freedom to you as long as you serve me for 5,000 years."
"5,000 years?"
Both of them smiled bitterly at the same time. They were already very old now, so who could guarantee that they could live for another 5,000 years?
Tan Xiu said lightly, "I'll provide you with a lot of cultivation resources during these 5,000 years. Similarly, I won't restrict your freedom too much. Although your lives are under my control, I'll give you the respect you deserve during these 5,000 years. I can even give you a very high status, even if you become the Imperial Protector of my Great Tang Empire. "
"The Great Tang Empire?"
Both of them looked confused at the same time.
Tan Xiu said lightly, "To tell you the truth, I've just led my people to the Immortal World using a special method. The population of the entire Great Tang Empire is very small, only about 200,000 people so far. "
"We agree."
Both of them agreed, but they smiled bitterly inwardly. An empire with more than 200,000 people was something they really couldn't complain about. Even if it was an ordinary human country, wouldn't it have a population of more than 10 million people? Just 200,000 people, yet they still dared to call it an empire?
Suddenly.
Both of them realized a problem. Since the master in front of them had just arrived in the Immortal World, where did he get so much wealth? It must be noted that he had bought three Perfected Golden Immortal gladiators at once this time.
"Can I ask you a question, Master?"
Seaway Monarch hesitated for a moment and asked carefully.
"Ask away!" Tan Xiu said.
"Do you have a lot of Immortal Stones or Immortal Crystals in your original pocket world? Crystal Essences? Otherwise, where did you get so much wealth to buy us out of the Convict Arena? "
"What kind of place is the Convict Arena?" Tan Xiu said with a faint smile. "It's a place where guests can gamble. If I can buy you out of the Convict Arena, why can't I win a lot of wealth in the Convict Arena? "
"Hiss …"
Both of them gasped and the shock in their hearts reached an unimaginable level.
Even if they were Perfected Golden Immortals, it would be very difficult for them to win hundreds of millions of Immortal Crystals from the Convict Arena. After all, winning every time required not only terrifying vision but also heaven-defying luck.
Tan Xiu took out 2 million Crystal Essences from his interspatial ring and handed them over to them, saying, "I'll give you two a mission. Kill an enemy who has just become a Perfected Golden Immortal. Remember, don't expose your identity and immediately withdraw after you kill him. "
"Who's the enemy?"
Asked Seaway Monarch.
"He's Hongwu Yelang, the Patriarch of the Yelang Clan," said Tan Xiu. "He lives in this Immortal Domain in Hessen Castle."
"We'll definitely complete the mission," said Seaway Monarch respectfully.
"Remember, you'll only have a short time to act." Tan Xiu said, "Since Hongwu Yelang knows Nine Nether Swordmeister, you must have heard his name. He's in Hessen Castle and has a good friendship with Hongwu Yelang. That's why you must act like a thunderbolt and retreat before Nine Nether Swordmeister gets the news. "
"Understood!"
The two respectfully nodded and were sent out of the Heavenly Abode artifact by Tan Xiu.
Tan Xiu took a deep breath. When he came out of the Heavenly Abode artifact, he saw Gu Yan 'er quietly sipping tea and Star Tears standing quietly in the room with an indifferent expression.
"Come with me."
Tan Xiu opened the Heavenly Abode artifact and took Star Tears inside.
Star Tears quietly observed Tan Xiu and calmly asked, "What's your order, Master?"
Tan Xiu took out 2 million Crystal Essences and put them into an interspatial ring. He then threw them to her and said, "You don't need to call me Master from now on. My name is Great Tang Heavenly Emperor, but you can call me Your Majesty. "
"Great Tang Heavenly Emperor?"
"Your Majesty?"
Star Tears looked a bit confused and slowly nodded.
"I'm the Emperor of the Great Tang Empire," said Tan Xiu. "Although my empire has no territory and only has a population of about 200,000 people, you'll be the Great Tang Empire's Protector from now on. But from now on, you are the Great Tang Empire's Protector of the Earth, and I will provide you with all the cultivation resources you need. You only need to promise me three things. "
"Speak."
Star Tears nodded slightly.
"The first thing is that you must change your appearance from now on and never meet people with this face," said Tan Xiu. "If you want to know the reason, I can tell you that I'm too weak to protect my subordinates at the Perfected Golden Immortal Stage. You've become a deathmatch gladiator in the Convict Arena, so you must have a very powerful enemy. I don't want to be implicated because of you. "
"I understand."
Star Tears nodded silently. Her facial muscles twitched and she quickly changed her appearance. Even those who were very close to her wouldn't be able to recognize her true identity now.
"The second thing is that you must obey my orders unconditionally from now on," said Tan Xiu again. "I won't deliberately send you to your death, and I'll also give you very loose freedom and … respect. But you must temporarily put aside all your past and serve me wholeheartedly. "
"Do I have to restrain myself if I encounter my enemy?" asked Star Tears.
"That's right. Even if you encounter your enemy, you must restrain yourself and not reveal even the slightest trace," said Tan Xiu. "Of course, you can tell me and I'll act according to the situation. If you can deal with the enemy and won't bring me any trouble, I don't mind letting you do it. I'll even send someone to help you. "
Star Tears' eyes lit up and asked in a deep voice, "Are you serious?"
"Yes!"
Replied Tan Xiu firmly.
"I promise you." Star Tears nodded heavily.
"I haven't thought about the third thing yet," said Tan Xiu with satisfaction. "I'll tell you when I've thought about it. You can cultivate in this Heavenly Abode artifact for the time being. If you have nothing to do, you can help me train the Great Tang Empire's warriors in this artifact. "
"Alright!"
Star Tears nodded.
Tan Xiu hesitated for a moment. He looked at the glimmer of vitality in Star Tears' eyes and slowly said, "Since we're on the same side in the future, I, Tan Xiu, will return your freedom once I become a powerhouse on par with you. I'll respect your decision whether you want to stay or leave when the time comes. "
Star Tears' expression drastically changed and disbelief filled her eyes. She quickly retreated a few steps and asked with a trembling voice, "You … what did you say your name was?"
"Great Tang Heavenly Emperor, Tan Xiu," said Tan Xiu lightly.
Star Tears stared at Tan Xiu's face for a long time. Then, she shook her head and said, "No, you're not him. I can tell that your appearance hasn't changed at all. But why do I sense a familiar aura on you? Why? "
"I may have guessed who you're talking about," said Tan Xiu calmly. "I bought a Catwoman in the Convict Arena some time ago, and she also said that I have a familiar aura on me."
Star Tears clenched her fists and asked in a deep voice, "Is she a Chinchilla?"
"That's right." Tan Xiu nodded.
"Where is she?" asked Star Tears hurriedly. "Can … can I see her now?"
Tan Xiu quickly sent a voice transmission to Catwoman. After explaining something to her, he called her over and lightly said, "Catwoman, you should know her, right?"
