"The Emperor is looking for a son-in-law? Why are you looking at me like that? " Chen Jiu couldn't help but glare fiercely at him. He already had so many wives, was there a need for him to chase after them?
"Senior, you don't look old at all. You're as handsome as a tree in the wind. With just one look, I can tell that you're the cornerstone of our Flying Celestial Kingdom. If the Emperor can get a son-in-law like you, he won't have to worry about the Celestial Temple!" Hai Feng immediately complimented Chen Jiu.
"Cough, I'm actually not as good as you say!" Chen Jiu was a little embarrassed by the compliment.
"Senior, let me tell you something else. The current Emperor only has one daughter. Her looks are earth-shattering, and she's like a celestial being. If you can marry her, not only will you have endless fortune and longevity, it's not impossible for you to inherit the throne in the future!" Hai Feng exclaimed once again.
"Pink skeletons, senior, I've seen many beauties. Besides, I don't have any desire for power!" Chen Jiu shook his head. He wasn't interested at all.
"Senior, even if you don't care about these things, you are still a cultivator. Are you really going to watch as our Flying Immortal Kingdom is devoured by the evil Ferocious Divine Temple?" Hai Feng immediately became distressed.
"This …" Chen Jiu hesitated. Disregarding the purpose of his trip here, just the fact that he had a heart of chivalry and justice to begin with, even without the matter of the Flying Celestial Palace Master, he still wanted to eliminate the Demon God!
"Senior, I can tell that you're a good person just by looking at you. You won't leave us in the lurch, right?" Hai Feng asked eagerly.
"But, although I want to help the world, Demon is too strong. I can't compare to him!" Chen Jiu's face was full of difficulty.
"Senior, don't worry. I heard that once the son-in-law selection is successful, the Emperor will definitely give him a good fortune. As long as he obtains this good fortune, surpassing the Emperor won't be a problem. When that time comes, even Demon will only be able to look at his back!" Hai Feng kindly advised.
"Really? There's such a good thing? " Chen Jiu immediately perked up. He could ignore beautiful women and power, but when it came to increasing his strength, he was especially persistent.
"Of course, I, Hai Feng, can guarantee it!" Hai Feng solemnly patted his chest.
"Alright, since you've said so, I'll have to make a trip to the Imperial City!" Chen Jiu stopped hesitating and prepared to leave immediately.
"Senior, wait a moment. If you're going to the Imperial City, I can give you a lift!" Hai Feng stopped Chen Jiu and gave him a token, inviting him to a teleportation array.
The teleportation portal flashed and Chen Jiu's figure disappeared. At this moment, Hai Feng suddenly revealed a sly smile. "Hehe, I've tricked another one. In this day and age, tricking as many as you can is good. Tricking even one is considered a great contribution!"
Bluff? Could it be that Chen Jiu was deceived? Actually, that wasn't entirely true. The news about the Flying Immortal Kingdom and the selection of a son-in-law were all true. It was just that Hai Feng didn't think so highly of Chen Jiu as he had said.
The Flying Immortal Kingdom was sitting on pins and needles as the Divine Temple expanded. Naturally, they needed more power to resist. Therefore, the Emperor of the Flying Immortal Kingdom used the selection of a son-in-law to order many City Lords to trick cultivators from all walks of life into gathering in the Imperial City to be cannon fodder and scapegoats!
Whoosh … The Flying Immortal Kingdom was very proficient in teleportation. A teleportation array directly sent Chen Jiu to the faraway Imperial City.
Before the space around him had completely stabilized, Chen Jiu heard shouts from outside. "Hey, don't push. Everyone, don't push. Those who have already been teleported here, come out quickly. Don't occupy the teleportation space!"
"Aiyo, why are you pushing? You're all men, so why are you pushing?" As the clamor spread, Chen Jiu found himself in the middle of a group of cultivators.
"Young man, just relax and don't push. Aiyo, who's pushing my brother? F * ck his mother …" An elder couldn't help but get angry as he tried to persuade Chen Jiu.
"F * ck, why do I feel like I'm squeezing into a public bus …" Chen Jiu cursed silently. He didn't have time to figure out where he was before he was squeezed out of the crowd.
Chen Jiu was finally relieved. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, someone pushed him and urged him, "Don't just stand there. Hurry up and go over there to register!"
"Register? Register what? " With great confusion, Chen Jiu lined up in front of a table. Here, everyone reported their names and received a number plate to be given food and lodging.
Chen Jiu held the Sea Breeze City token in his hand. Soon, it was his turn. He couldn't help but ask, "Is this the Imperial City? I'm here to be the son-in-law! "
"Of course it's the Imperial City. All of you are here to be the Emperor's son-in-law. Just listen to the arrangements!" The general at the table said impatiently.
"This … but isn't this a little too many people?" Chen Jiu felt that something was wrong.
"The Princess is as beautiful as a fairy. Naturally, everyone wants to marry her. Where are you from? Why are you talking so much nonsense? " The general couldn't wait any longer. He snatched the token from Chen Jiu's hand and registered it. "Sea Breeze City, name?"
"Uh, Chen Jiu!" Chen Jiu hesitated, but he still reported his name. After all, he was already here.
"Alright, you're number 9147. Take this and register it as your master. Go to the Eastern Palace and find a place to stay!" The general then handed over a special number plate and ignored him.
"Sigh …" Chen Jiu did not have time to ask in detail. He was directly pushed out, like a duck being driven onto a perch, and was directly squeezed into the East Palace.
"Phew!" When he arrived at the Eastern Palace, he could finally take a breather. This was because it was relatively spacious and not so crowded.
This was supposed to be an extremely beautiful place for immortals. However, there were too many cultivators at this time, which really ruined the artistic conception of this place!
"Hey, you're new here, right? How about joining the Southern Palace? We can guarantee your safety! "At this moment, a skinny cultivator approached Chen Jiu and invited him.
"The Southern Palace is nothing! The Northern Palace is still more powerful! Little brother, don't go astray! "A burly man came from the other side and said.
"When it comes to freedom, the Western Palace is the most free. Little brother, don't you want to consider it?" Another young scholar came over.
"The Southern Palace? The Northern Palace? The Western Palace? Aren't we all here to be the Emperor's son-in-law? Why are we in such a hurry to establish our power? "Chen Jiu didn't understand.
"Little brother, you're too naive!" In the face of Chen Jiu's question, the three people all laughed.
"Naive? What do you mean? Why did you send me an invitation? " Chen Jiu didn't understand. There were too many cultivators here. Why didn't they go to him?
