"Grandson, quickly kowtow to this Lord!" Ye Kong sat on the armchair and crossed his legs. It seemed like it was true, but he was also muttering in his heart: This Lord, this phrase is really powerful, no wonder so many people like to call themselves this, so it really is like this, after calling yourself that I feel refreshed, my whole body feels full of energy!
Although Huang Shishi was happy in her heart, she still reminded Ye Kong: "Forget about it, although this Hu Mingyang's cultivation and official position is not very high, but his father is Hu Jun."
Ye Kong did not have time to ask who Hu Jun. He heard Hu Mingyang shout, "Huang Shishi, who is this kid? Be careful, my father will not let you off! "
In fact, with Hu Mingyang's cultivation, he had long wanted to teach Huang Shishi a lesson. But he was not completely brainless, he could also see that this person was probably related to Huang Shishi, if they were to fight, Huang Shishi would also help this kid, he, a late stage Yuanying cultivator, had no chance of winning.
"What are you shouting, isn't your father Hu Jun? Your father is Li Gang, today I will deal with you! "Ye Kong pointed at Hu Mingyang and shouted.
Many people present did not know the inside story, but after hearing what Ye Kong said, everyone was silent, as if this Hu Jun was indeed an extraordinary person.
Good kid, you know my father is Hu Junand yet you are still so arrogant! Hu Mingyang flew into a rage, he opened his mouth and spat out his Life Treasure. At first, Ye Kong thought it was some kind of prayer beads, but after a closer look, it turned out to be abacus beads.
This Hu Mingyang's Life Treasure could be considered not bad, it turned out to be 36 dazzling golden abacus beads, he did not know what material was used to refine it, but he felt that its power was not ordinary.
But at this moment, a loud shout came from behind, "Hu Mingyang! You are too much! "
Looking towards the direction of the voice, they saw a wooden wheelchair rolling over from the other end of the bridge, on the chair, an old man gloomily looked at Hu Mingyang.
Everyone hurriedly retreated. Although this person's cultivation wasn't high and he was incomplete, everyone knew that he was the young master of the Pawnshop Devil Sect.
To Ye Kong's surprise, when Hu Mingyang saw this person, he actually stepped forward and said, "Brother, quickly come and help me, this kid is too much of a bastard!"
Everyone present felt that Ye Kong was in trouble. Hu Hailong was definitely going to help his family.
Unexpectedly, Hu Hailong ignored Hu Mingyang's call. Instead, he waved his hand and said, "Take Hu Mingyang down!"
Although Hu Hailong's cultivation base wasn't very high, he had a few Divine Lord followers behind him. Immediately, one of the Divine Lord's followers stepped forward and collected Hu Mingyang's abacus beads. Then, he used the Immortal-Binding Rope to tie Hu Mingyang up.
Hu Mingyang was dumbfounded. His cousin, Hu Hailong, had always been very protective of him. Why was he helping an outsider to capture him today?
Hu Hailong continued, "Hu Mingyang, quickly kneel before Friend Ye and beg for his forgiveness. I'll help you plead with the Sect Leader when I return."
Hu Mingyang angrily said, "Brother, have you lost your mind? Why would Uncle punish me for an outsider like him? "
"Outsider?" Hu Hailong coldly snorted. "The Sect Leader has already decided to appoint Daoist Ye Kong as the future Prime Minister of our Celestial Kingdom!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned. They didn't expect this kid to be the future Prime Minister. That was a position that stood above tens of thousands of people! Even Huang Shishi's eyes were burning with passion. One had to know that becoming the Prime Minister here meant that one would have unparalleled authority. He would have priority in obtaining all kinds of resources. Even the True Lord, Divine Lord, and even higher cultivators would have to listen to him …
"Him? Prime Minister? " Hu Mingyang looked at Hu Hailong in disbelief. After pondering for a moment, he finally kneeled before Ye Kong and said, "I beg the Prime Minister to be magnanimous and forgive me for my ignorance."
Just as everyone thought that the tyrant would be punished and the Prime Minister would establish his authority, they saw Ye Kong stand up and say to Hu Hailong, "Brother Hu, after knowing you for so long, I thought you were a gentleman. I didn't expect you to be such a character … I'm sorry, I have no plans to become the Prime Minister or the Emperor. Cultivators should seek the Heavenly Dao as their life's goal, their only goal! How can we be like the mortals of the secular world, reluctant to part with worldly power, fighting for power and profit, chasing after fame and power? How can we cultivators do something like this? "
Huang Shishi's eyes became clear. She looked at Ye Kong with approval. At the same time, many of the spectators nodded to themselves. Thinking back on their own actions, they felt that they had indeed neglected the essentials.
There was only one path on the long road to immortality. Everyone knew this, but they were often blinded by it.
Hu Hailong was also stunned. Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to announce it in front of everyone, not only giving Ye Kong face, but also establishing the truth. He did not expect that this fellow would not give him face and scold him in front of everyone.
Only Yi Manying knew the truth. Ye Kong hated people who schemed against him and used him the most. Back at Spiritual Medicine Mountain, Hu Hailong had schemed against him, and he still bore a grudge against him. This time, Hu Hailong's actions had backfired.
Now that things had come to this, Hu Hailong felt a little regretful. He could only smile awkwardly and say, "I only said that it was the Sect Leader's decision. I didn't say that you agreed …"
Ye Kong was really a little angry. He hated Hu Hailong for not being a good friend. If he had been one step slower and agreed without knowing the reason, it would have been difficult for him to get rid of his title as the Prime Minister.
"Then I'll tell you clearly right now. Even if you want me to be the Emperor, I won't do it!"
Hu Hailong smiled bitterly. This fellow really turned against him at the drop of a hat. He could only say, "It's fine if you don't want to do it. No one is forcing you to do it. There are many people who want to do it. Come, come, I'll bring you to visit the temple … Oh, and the stones that you need are all prepared …"
As soon as Hu Hailong said that, the Divine Lord behind him rushed forward and pulled Ye Kong away from the scene, afraid that he would say something else.
After walking for a long time, someone remembered, "Hey, my armchair!"
"Brother Ye, you really didn't give me face. You directly slapped me in the face." Hu Hailong sighed from his wheelchair.
"My motto is that I will treat others the way they treat me. Someone wants to frame me, and I still have to give them face? Ye Kong, I've never been this good-tempered. "Ye Kong was still very unhappy.
Hu Hailong could only smile bitterly and say, "Brother Ye, don't be angry. I was wrong, okay? I didn't have a choice. "
Huang Shishi, who was beside him, also persuaded, "That's right, you had no choice. Actually, everyone knows that Young Sect Master is not bad."
Ye Kong grunted in agreement. He then asked, "That Hu Mingyang didn't do anything to you, right?"
Huang Shishi hurriedly said, "No, no. That Hu Mingyang didn't force me to do anything. He was just like a housefly, buzzing around my ear all day. It's a little annoying. I already told him that I have a dao companion, but he still pestered me. He said that everyone in Yunyao has a dao companion, but life here is monotonous. Why not be a married couple … "
"Oh, he also has a wife!" Ye Kong's suppressed anger flared up again. This person was really too despicable. He already had a wife, but he still pestered a married woman?
"No, I have to go back and beat him up!"
"Ye … Cough cough cough!" Hu Hailong was so anxious that he couldn't tell if it was real or fake. He started coughing at the top of his lungs. The people beside him hurriedly went up to pat him on the back and gave him pills.
Ye Kong looked at him and could only let it go. He said, "Brother Hu, your body isn't good. You should care less about these things and focus on cultivation. When you have some time, go out and search for elixirs."
Hu Hailong coughed for a while before he calmed down. He smiled bitterly, "I don't have many years left in my lifespan. I won't make it in time to cultivate. I might as well do something that the future generations will remember."
Ye Kong wanted to say that it was useless. This place would be blown up by the red giant sooner or later. You wouldn't be able to leave anything behind. Instead, you would harm yourself and others … But looking at Hu Hailong's expression, he was too embarrassed to say it.
"Forget it, forget it. I do have some peaches that can increase lifespan. When we go back, I'll give you a few." Ye Kong thought of the orchard in the Five Elements Immortal Mansion.
Actually, what he said was the truth. But the surrounding people all looked at him strangely. Kid, what are you saying? You're bragging too much! Our sect head spent a lot of effort to find seven to eight peaches. That's why young sect head could live until now. But you, you asked for a few dozen. And you're giving them for free … Don't tell me you're treating them as spirit peaches.
Ye Kong knew what these people were thinking. He couldn't be bothered to explain. Hu Hailong said politely, "Thank you so much. It's just that I've received your kindness time and time again. Just now … I'm really ashamed."
"Forget it." Ye Kong waved his hand and asked, "What's the relationship between you and Hu Mingyang? How powerful is his father Hu Jun?"
As they talked, they came to the front of the temple. Hu Mingyang's matter was clarified. His father Hu Jun's cultivation wasn't that powerful. The problem was that Hu Jun was Hu Ke Zhenyi's younger brother. Thus, the younger brother relied on his older brother's power. The son relied on his father's power to bully other cultivators. This Hu Mingyang was just a second generation who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
"This guy has been spoiled by us. In the future, we'll definitely teach him a lesson. Don't bother with him." Hu Hailong said.
Ye Kong nodded. Actually, he didn't care whether Hu Mingyang had a powerful backer or not. If he wanted to mess with someone, he wouldn't think too much. But since Hu Hailong said so, he let it go.
"Then forget it." Ye Kong replied. Then, he looked at the temple in front of him.
Previously, he couldn't see it clearly. Now that he was in front of him, he realized that it was magnificent. The white building was shaped like a sharp sword. It pierced through the clouds. The entire outer wall was surrounded by exquisite carvings. There were thousands of people standing in front of the square. It didn't feel like there were too many people.
Following the crowd into the temple, they saw that the shiny marble floor was like a mirror. It was flat, reflective, and magnificent.
The temple's area was bigger than the palace. If one spoke loudly on the other side, it would become a very small buzz.
But this was nothing. He looked up from the four huge pillars in the divine temple …
Yi Manying's beautiful eyes widened. She covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Oh my god! That … is a top grade spirit stone? "
