And when more and more people gathered, and the discussions and noises became more and more intense, finally, the commander of the Royal Forest Army who entered the palace to report came out.
"Master Liu Qi, I have a request from your Majesty!"
A respectful voice sounded, and upon hearing this, Liu Qi also smiled lightly, "Thank you."
With that said, Liu Qi led the people directly into the palace.
This naturally made the gathered people even more excited. They were discussing and waiting impatiently, because they knew that news would come from the palace soon.
At this moment, in the palace, the civil and military ministers of the Shenlong Dynasty and hundreds of officials stood nervously on both sides of the hall.
At the same time, there was a middle-aged man at the top of the hall.
This middle-aged man was wearing a golden dragon robe and had a majestic face.
And he is none other than the emperor of the Shenlong Dynasty, Chen Xiu!
But at this time, Chen Xiu was obviously not the one who made the ministers in the palace nervous.
Because even Chen Xiu, the supreme leader of the Shenlong Dynasty, was standing at this moment.
And sitting on the dragon chair in the palace, which symbolized supreme power, was another person.
This person is also a middle-aged man.
And this middle-aged man is very ordinary.
Compared with Chen Xiu standing on the right, this middle-aged man seems to be an ordinary citizen.
There is nothing outstanding about it, and it is even so ordinary that people will forget about it after just one glance.
However, the ministers in the palace did not dare to look down upon this middle-aged man.
No, in other words, not only did they not dare to look down upon this person, but they were filled with infinite awe and fear for this person.
Because they know how terrifying this middle-aged man who looks so ordinary and forgettable in the blink of an eye is.
Because he is the leader of the Dragon Land Realm and the master of the Immortal Sect, the true legendary supreme!
Li Jiutian!
And this kind of terrifying figure, this kind of figure who only existed in legends, has now arrived in the palace of their Shenlong Dynasty and sat on the dragon throne of their emperor.
How can these ministers not be in awe? How can we not be afraid?
Even Chen Xiu, the emperor, looked at Li Jiutian with nervous eyes.
Because he knew very well that although he was the supreme leader of the Shenlong Dynasty, in front of Li Jiutian, there was no difference between him and an ant.
As long as the other party thinks about it, he can erase everything about him at any time.
"Haha, His Majesty the Emperor, you don't have to be nervous."
But at this time, a burst of laughter suddenly sounded.
But it was a young man standing on the side of the dragon chair who spoke.
And this young man is none other than Xiao Guanlan! ww
Xiao Guanlan actually accompanied the Immortal Sect Master to the palace of the Shenlong Dynasty!
"The sect master and I came here this time mainly to deal with the people from the Star Gate."
Xiao Guanlan smiled and said, "After all, Star Gate is an important force in our Dragon Continent Realm. Now that they have sent people here, we always have to meet."
"Yes Yes!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiu nodded immediately and forced a smile to express his understanding.
But all the ministers in the palace smiled bitterly in their hearts.
They knew that although Xiao Guanlan's words were polite, in fact, they were a reminder to them.
This is to remind them that they are under the control of the Immortal Sect, not the Star Gate.
At the same time, it also shows authority to them.
After all, they didn't know about the arrival of the Star Gate people, but the Immortal Sect knew about it, and the moment they knew it, they came here.
This is obviously telling them that the Immortal Sect knows all the trends of the Shenlong Dynasty?
How could they not smile bitterly?
Fortunately, they weren't surprised by this either.
After all, the Immortal Sect is the leader of the Dragon Land Realm. They have known this for a long time, and they have expressed their absolute surrender to the Immortal Sect.
So from now on they just need to keep quiet.
They only need to quietly watch the fight between the Immortal Sect and the Star Gate people, and then quietly wait for the arrangements of the Immortal Sect.
And just when all the ministers in the palace were thinking this, a sharp voice came from outside the palace.
"Representative of the Royal Family of the Holy Dynasty, Star Gate Grand Elder Liu Qi, Master Liu is here!"
After hearing this, the middle-aged man who was sitting on the dragon chair and remained silent nodded slightly to Xiao Guanlan.
Xiao Guanlan immediately looked at Chen Xiu with a smile, "Your Majesty, please call them in."
"yes!"
Chen Xiu nodded immediately and shouted the next moment, "Pass!"
As soon as this word was spoken, a group of people walked in outside the hall, and the leader was none other than Liu Qi!
When Liu Qi entered the palace, Liu Qi's always smiling cheek also stiffened.
But in an instant he recognized who the middle-aged man in white was sitting on the dragon throne.
It is the leader of the Immortal Sect, Li Jiutian!
And not only Li Jiutian has arrived, but Xiao Guanlan has also arrived!
Naturally, this made Liu Qi's thoughts change. After all, he really didn't expect that Li Jiutian and Xiao Guanlan, the masters of the Immortal Sect, would actually come directly to the palace of the Shenlong Dynasty!
So what does this mean? According to their status, they shouldn't come here. Why are they here?
Could it be that Li Jiutian will oppose their Star Gate's canonization of Zhao Zhen next?
Or is Li Jiutian planning to attack them?
Countless possibilities flashed through Liu Qi's mind. Fortunately, he was the royal representative of the Holy Dynasty after all. Although he was shocked, he reacted very quickly. He quickly stepped forward and faced Li Jiutian, the leader of the Immortal Sect. He knelt down and kowtowed respectfully, "Liu Qi, the Holy Dynasty, pays homage to the lord of the sect. The lord of the sect will live for thousands of years and live forever!"
As soon as he said these words, the expressions of the Holy Dynasty sergeants who followed him immediately changed. They obviously did not expect that the middle-aged man sitting on the dragon chair was the legendary master of the Immortal Sect!
Fortunately, they were not slow to react, and they also knelt down and said, "Greetings to the lord of the sect, the lord of the sect will live for thousands of years and live forever!"
After hearing this, finally, the middle-aged man sitting on the dragon throne said calmly, "Get up."
The three words came out like a calm stream of water. There was nothing special about them, but they penetrated directly into the hearts of everyone in the hall.
This made Liu Qi feel nervous, but he kowtowed again and said, "Thank you, Master!"
After saying that, Liu Qi stood up, and the sergeants behind him also kowtowed again and stood up.
"I heard that you are here this time to canonize a disciple of my Immortal Sect as the Great Protector of your star gate."
The moment Liu Qi stood up, Li Jiutian's faint words sounded again, and his calm eyes looked directly at Liu Qi, "Is that so?"
Liu Qi's body immediately tensed up.
Although Li Jiutian's words were very indifferent and his eyes were calm, this was the question from the head of the Immortal Sect!
Especially what they did was not so much a canonization of Zhao Zhen as a provocation to the Immortal Sect.
How could he not be nervous?
However, considering what Mrs. Liu told him before leaving and Star Gate's future plans, he knew that he could not back down at this moment.
Naturally, he took a deep breath, and the next moment he nodded respectfully and said, "Sir, that's exactly what it is."
As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly became even quieter, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Countless ministers, including the Shenlong Emperor Chen Xiu, were so nervous that they even forgot to breathe.
Because they knew that Liu Qi's words were obviously an admission that they would next infiltrate the Immortal Sect.
And it was in front of Li Jiutian!
This is obviously a provocation to the Immortal Sect and Li Jiutian!
So how could they not be nervous?
Xiao Guanlan's eyes also flashed.
Obviously, he did not expect that people from the Star Gate would dare to say this when Li Jiutian came in person.
Li Jiutian's eyes were still calm, and he looked at Liu Qi quietly.
Facing Li Jiutian's calm eyes, Liu Qi's body became tense again.
However, he did not dodge.
He just maintained his bent posture and stood quietly, looking at Li Jiutian respectfully.
After a long time, Li Jiucai's eyes flashed and he said calmly, "Who is it?"
This made all the nervous ministers in the palace feel moved and looked at Liu Qi involuntarily.
Obviously, this is what they want to know.
They also want to know who is the person who won the first place.
But Liu Qi trembled.
Because he knew that it was impossible for Li Jiutian not to know who it was.
As the leader of the Immortal Sect, he must know everything that happened in the competition.
But now, Li Jiutian deliberately asked questions knowingly.
This is obviously an expression of dissatisfaction.
However, he still gritted his teeth and said a name.
"Zhao Zhen."
Buzz!
There was a vibrating sound.
But countless ministers in the hall trembled!
Zhao Zhen!
It’s actually Zhao Zhen!
Originally, in their imagination, Hua Tian was most likely to win the first place in the competition.
Although they had thought about Zhao Zhen, they did not think that Zhao Zhen was Hua Tian's opponent.
But now, it is Zhao Zhen, that madman Zhao Zhen!
How could they not be shocked?
Of course, despite being shocked, they instantly understood the meaning of the Star Gate, and even more instantly understood why the Immortal Sect Master and Xiao Guanlan came here at the same time.
After all, Zhao Zhen's identity is too complicated.
On the surface, he is a disciple of the Immortal Sect, but secretly, he is a member of Xiao Guanlan.
At the same time, he has an unbroken blood relationship with the Hua family, and his second uncle Kong Wuliang is the top master in the Star Gate.
The combination of these identities makes Zhao Zhen the best person to balance the situation.
The reason why Star Gate wanted to canonize Zhao Zhen was because it must have taken a fancy to Zhao Zhen. Star Gate wanted to shape Zhao Zhen into a being who could balance the three forces.
This is obviously not in line with the interests of the Immortal Sect, and can even be said to pose a huge challenge to the interests of the Immortal Sect.
How could the leader of the Immortal Sect not come?
Naturally, they soon became quiet and looked at the master of the Immortal Sect silently.
They wanted to know what the leader of the Immortal Sect would do next and whether he would directly stop it.
"Zhao Zhen is a disciple of the Immortal Sect, and disciples of the Immortal Sect are not allowed to join other organizations."
Sure enough, Li Jiutian said simply. His words were still plain, but his meaning was very direct.
"So we didn't let Zhao Zhen join our star gate directly, we just made him a guest guest."
Liu Qi was obviously willing to go all out and said directly, "The most important thing is that this is what Zhao Zhen agreed to."
As soon as these words came out, Li Jiutian fell silent, and the pupils of the people in the palace shrank.
Zhao Zhen himself agreed!
With just this sentence, they understood what Liu Qi meant.
This clearly means that Zhao Zhen has agreed to join forces with their Star Gate to strengthen his own power, instead of blindly following the Immortal Sect!
"Zhao Zhen is just a disciple of the Immortal Sect."
At this time, Xiao Guanlan also spoke lightly, looking at Liu Qidao, "And since he is a disciple of the Immortal Sect, he can only listen to the arrangements of the Immortal Sect."
"That's what I said, but as far as I know, there are many disciples in the Immortal Sect who are also guest ministers of other organizations, and the Immortal Sect has not interfered, and they all acquiesce."
Liu Qi said directly, "Then since other disciples can concurrently serve as guest ministers of other organizations, why can't Zhao Zhen concurrently serve as guest ministers?"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Guanlan frowned slightly, as if he wanted to continue talking.
However, Liu Qi raised his hand and said directly, "Mr. Xiao, actually it's useless for us to say all this. You don't have to explain it to me. After all, I don't understand the rules of the Immortal Sect."
