Chapter 1419: Yupo’s Appointment
After the tribute ceremony was over, the discussion in the square did not stop.
Demon Emperor looked at the noisy crowd below, smiled slightly, and suddenly stood up.
The family masters below immediately stopped talking.
“Everyone, although today is the tribute ceremony, I have a few things to announce here. One of them is about the rebellion.” Demon Emperor said in a calm tone.
As soon as these words came out, all the family masters looked solemn and attentive.
“The rebellion of the Liu Family and Da Shuo Dynasty is aggressive. It has been more than 10 years, and I have not been able to completely eradicate them. Instead, I even let several states in the border areas suffer the torment of war for years. I’m really guilty.” When Huangfu Yong mentioned this, he showed a trace of shame on his face.
“Today, I want to use this grand ceremony to tell the world that, the Central Dynasty will make every effort to quell the rebellion of the Liu Family and Da Shuo Dynasty. At the same time, I will announce that all the families in various states and counties will be recruited to form an alliance to a.s.sist the dynasty in suppressing the rebellion!” Immediately afterward, Huangfu Yong announced the big news with a solemn look.
After hearing this, the family masters below were astounded.
Huangfu Yong’s words stirred a huge wave in their mind. The next moment, the family masters burst into discussion.
“I will not go into details about the specific matters related to the alliance. The family masters of the Gaohe Family, Long Family, and Kongxiang family will be fully responsible for it.” Huangfu Yong glanced at everyone while saying.
As soon as these words came out, the discussion in the square calmed down. They all looked at the 3 family masters on the high platform.
Liu Ming also looked over. The 3 family families didn’t look surprised at all. Clearly, they knew about this beforehand.
At this moment, Huangfu Yong continued,
“Next, I have decided to take advantage of this ceremony to select the crown prince. I invite all the family masters here to come to Kunxin Hall tomorrow to observe the ceremony of selection.”
As soon as he said this, there was a huge uproar in the square. They were even more surprised than when they just learned that they were going to have a decisive battle with the Liu Family.
The direct descendants of the Huangfu Family on the high platform also had shocked expressions on their faces. It was obvious that they did not know about this in advance.
Huangfu Jiangu, who was standing at the front of the disciples, had a fleeting excited look.
The 3 great family masters were startled too. Huangfu Yong was now in his prime. If nothing happened, he would never select the crown prince at this time, unless he had some special reasons.
Gaohe Rui’s face flashed with surprise as if he had thought of something.
“Could it be…”
The Long Family Master and Kongxiang Wu also thought of something. There was also a strange look in their eyes.
“Hmph! I didn’t expect this kid Huangfu Yong to have reached the point to break through to the Eternal State!” Mo Tian’s voice emerged in Liu Ming’s mind.
“Senior Mo Tian, you’re awake…” Liu Ming hurriedly asked in his mind.
“You are in the palace now, so it was inconvenient for me to show up before for some reasons, but there are some important things I want to tell you.” Before Liu Ming could finish speaking, Mo Tian interrupted him.
Liu Ming was startled.
“Time is running out, so I’ll keep the story short. Since Huangfu Yong invites you to Kunxin Hall to watch the ceremony, you must go. Remember to wear this on you. I will explain other things to you later. Remember, this matter is beneficial to you. It will even be helpful for you to advance to the Mystic Comprehending State in the future.” Mo Tian’s voice gradually became lower, then he fell into silence.
Liu Ming frowned, then a black jade talisman appeared in his hand.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he quickly put away the black jade talisman.
Although his expression was not abnormal at all, his thoughts were racing, wondering what Mo Tian was up to.
In the following time, Huangfu Yong said a few more things, but most of them were about the tribute ceremony.
The tribute ceremony was now coming to an end.
After Huangfu Yong gave another thank you speech, the ceremony finally ended. The family masters on the square began to leave one after another after Demon Emperor left.
Liu Ming was about to leave along with the crowd.
“Liu Ming, I will host a banquet at Millennium Pavilion tonight. Please be sure to attend.” Huangfu Yupo’s voice suddenly reached his ears.
When Liu Ming heard this, his body trembled slightly and he immediately raised his eyes.
On the high platform, Huangfu Yupo, who was standing next to Zhao Qianying, was looking over with a smile.
Liu Ming smiled bitterly in his mind, nodded slightly, and left.
A quarter of an hour later, he returned to Genix Garden.
Qing Yu and others were staying in the garden at the moment and did not go out to hang out. When they saw Liu Ming coming back, they hurriedly came out to greet him.
“Family master, could it be that the tribute ceremony did not go smoothly? I saw that many family masters had complicated expressions when they came back.” Qing Yu asked curiously.
“Not really, it’s just that the Demon Emperor announced a few things in public.” Liu Ming smiled lightly and briefly talked to Qing Yu and others about what happened at the ceremony.
After Qing Yu and others heard the first announcement, they were startled. As for the next few announcements, they weren’t that shocked.
“You don’t have to worry about it. Although this matter is not small, it does not have much to do with our Qing Family. I will handle it properly.” Liu Ming said calmly.
In the eyes of Qing Yu and others, Liu Ming had long been a pillar to them. Seeing Liu Ming so calm, Qing Yu and the others feel rea.s.sured.
“Okay, you all go and have a rest. The ceremony is over now. You can stroll around if you want. After I watch the ceremony tomorrow, we will prepare to return.” Liu Ming ordered lightly.
“Yes, as family master commands.” Qing Yu and others affirmed, then they went back to their rooms.
After a while, Liu Ming returned to his room. As soon as he entered the door, he set up 5 enchantments.
Then he sat down cross-legged and took out the black jade talisman that Mo Tian gave him.
After checking it carefully for a while, he couldn’t figure out what this jade talisman was. He could only feel that it contained a very deep level of demonic qi.
He looked at the jade talisman in his hand with twinkling eyes, and called Mo Tian several times through his mind, but did not get any response.
Liu Ming’s expression suddenly became uncertain.
Although he had already had enough of Mo Tian’s various tricks, he was still moved by the benefits that Mo Tian mentioned.
His cultivation had reached the Celestial State later stage. As long as he persisted in hard training, it was only a matter of time before he reached the peak. However, he was not sure about advancing to the Mystic Comprehending State.
Although the demonic essence sarira could increase the chance of advancing to the Mystic Comprehending State by 10%, Liu Ming felt that it was probably Mo Tian’s exaggeration.
The bottleneck of advancing from Celestial State to Mystic Comprehending State was more than a thousand times more difficult than advancing from Real Pellet State to Celestial State. After all, before Celestial State, advancement mainly depended on the cultivation method and one’s own comprehension of the cultivation method. As for advancing to the Mystic Comprehending State, it involved mastering the law power of heaven and earth.
Although Liu Ming had a slight understanding of law power, and his Mountain River Pearls also contained some law power, it was too early for him to master it.
After taking a breath, he showed a trace of determination and launched a symbol into the black jade talisman.
He still decided to act according to Mo Tian’s words. His strength was greatly improved at the moment, and he was confident that even if something unexpected happened, he would be able to deal with it. At worst, he would perish together with Mo Tian.
However, before that, he had to figure out the role of this black jade talisman.
At this moment, a black light suddenly appeared on the black jade talisman, then it flew into his body.
Liu Ming was startled. The jade talisman turned into an extremely cold demonic qi and merged into his meridians.
The aura he emanated immediately became extremely cold as if he was wearing a cold coat.
The human techniques that Liu Ming had practiced before, such as the yang aura carried by Heavenly Thunder Spell, were completely hidden deep in the meridians by some strange power.
“Could it be that Mo Tian asked me to wear this jade talisman to cover up my human aura…” Liu Ming secretly guessed.
He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn’t figure out Mo Tian’s motives.
Soon, he gave up thinking and decided to wait until tomorrow. There was still a big problem that he needed to deal with tonight.
…
Millennium Pavilion was a large restaurant in the Second City District of Central Imperial City. It occupied a large area, covering half a street.
The sky was dark, but the Millennium Pavilion was brightly lit. It seemed like daytime inside. The sound of silk and bamboo came out from time to time.
At the door on the ground floor of the Millennium Pavilion, people came and went from time to time. The business was thriving.
Not far away, a figure wearing a green robe walked slowly to the door of Millennium Pavilion. After stopping, he looked at the lively scene here with flickering eyes.
This person was Liu Ming.
This large restaurant was of course not just a place for people to drink and chat. Anyone who was slightly familiar with Central Imperial City knew that Millennium Pavilion was also a large-scale auction house in Central Imperial City. The restaurant was just a cover.
It was said that the backing of this restaurant was the Huangfu Family. It had been operating in the Imperial City for tens of thousands of years.
The Millennium Pavilion not only had an extremely quiet environment, but it also had several unique wines with an excellent reputation. Gradually, many people came here just for the drinks.
After Liu Ming took a deep breath, he stepped into the door of the restaurant. The sharp-eyed waiter in a green shirt at the door hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully led Liu Ming into the building.
The hall on the ground floor was very wide. There were more than 10 floors of rooms upwards, which were hundreds of meters high. The interior of the building was very luxurious, and the floors and walls were made of various wooden and jade spiritual materials.
He had already been here once a day ago to partic.i.p.ate in a medium-sized auction.
“Guest, are you here for tea, or…” The waiter noticed that Liu Ming was not weak in cultivation, so he asked cautiously.
