The martial arts performance was unexpected, but the ceremony still had to continue.
At that time, Zhan Changfeng took three sticks of incense from Xiaodao, and followed the elders, princes, and other fourteen people into the ancestral hall to offer incense to the Lord of the Winery.
A majestic roar suddenly came from the Chaotian Temple and hovered over Qiankun Mountain for a long time. Everyone's hearts were numb, as if they heard the order.
"This is?" Wei Minghou's expression was very exciting. Could it be the water unicorn he asked Wu Yuan to send? !
The seriously injured water unicorn was actually cured? !
Mingrui smiled and looked at the princes with different expressions, "Don't panic, everyone, this is a water unicorn."
Although the princes had doubts about how such a king and divine beast could appear, they couldn't openly question it.
When the Marquis of Zhegui responded to the invitation of Marquis Weiming and jointly attacked the Marquis of Qibei, they found out that he had used Shui Qilin's hair and blood, which aroused a tide of wild beasts. Seeing that Weiming Marquis pretended to be dead after hearing Shui Qilin's name, he told Ming Rui asked, "Elder, can I meet Qilin later?"
Mingrui and Bai Hen looked at each other, nodded and said, "Of course, you can follow me."
Juniors such as Zhan Changfeng were also brought over, following the elders and princes and listening silently.
Before going up to the Temple of Heaven, everyone felt a heavy power pressing down on them. The vitality of the surrounding heaven and earth surged up and down, like a spiritual tide. As they climbed up the steps, they finally saw a strange beast lying on the ground, with a dragon's head and a lion's body, covered in scales. , with green beard and hair, as quiet as cold water, it is the king of mythical beasts!
Just this power seems to be above the realm of life and death!
"Sorry to bother you, Lord Runyan." The elders bowed their hands in greeting.
Hearing the word "true king", the princes who didn't know why were also busy making rituals.
"No courtesy." Shui Qilin lazily opened his eyes, "What's the matter?"
"These few princes from Zangyunjian came here to pay homage to the true king." Mingrui said.
The princes looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to say for a moment. Only Gongsun Zhenglong took a step forward and said, "It's a blessing that the true king is here. I wonder if the true king is passing by here or staying here forever?"
Shui Qilin said straightforwardly, "I will guard the Council of Elders for a hundred years."
Wei Minghou's heart twitched and he tried hard to hold back his breath, hoping that it would not realize that he had cut its hair and drawn its blood while it was seriously injured and sleeping. If he had known this, he should not have listened to Xun Mo and asked Yu Yuan to take Shui Qilin to serve the Elders Council.
Gongsun Zhenglong's face showed no strange color, but he saw that the water unicorn's aura was actually a little weaker than that of Zhenjun. It seemed that he was in a weak stage. He congratulated happily, "The Council of Elders is fortunate to have Zhenjun sitting in charge. It is safe and sound. Juniors." I have heard that you are a strange beast in the world, with a kind nature, a deep understanding of the world, and an understanding of God's will. Every time you are born, you are to convey God's mandate and assist the monarch."
"Junior, I dare to ask, is there a king you like in Zangyunjian, or in this elders' meeting?"
If it were left to the dynasty, it would be punishable. Unfortunately, the Council of Elders was not the one, and the Council of Elders' binding force on these princes was in name only.
But his question still caused an uproar in the crowd.
There are factions within the Council of Elders. If Shui Qilin chooses someone from among them and says "he or she can be the king," I don't know how many changes will happen.
The princes are very ambitious. If Shui Qilin picks a prince and says, "He or she can be the king," well, the banner of "Destiny" can be raised.
Fortunately, the relationship between the elders and the water unicorn is a transaction, and they are not afraid of it saying shocking things.
"The king is blessed by destiny. The Council of Elders proclaims it on behalf of heaven. The destiny lasts for three thousand years, and no one can compare it." The water unicorn closed its giant eyes and did not want to say more.
His words made several princes heavy-minded and confused. The meeting of elders was still broken. The elders were also very worried. They did not dare to influence Shui Qilin's words and deeds. They did not expect what it said now, and they were naturally happy when they first heard it.
Zhan Changfeng secretly shook his head, no one can compare, not that no one can compare, the larger the territory divided by the princes, the more natural disasters occur, the faster the luck of the Council of Elders is consumed, the last time she got a glimpse of the Council of Elders' luck When she picked up the tree, she found that it was very weak, almost like her personal luck pillar.
Speaking of luck, she has always been curious about how the luck tree in Zangyunjian was condensed and how it fed luck back to the officials.
Mirror mentioned the Tianyun Emperor's Luck, but did not go into details. She only said that one of the five levels hid the secrets in this regard and asked her to find it herself.
After the political meeting is over, she will shift her focus to this aspect.
In the daytime, after a series of ancestor worship rituals, the excitement finally ended.
Bai Hen took a breath and asked Zhan Changfeng what happened during his martial arts performance.
There was an accident, so Shui Jing was cut off to prevent any negative impact from being leaked. He only heard Yuan Heng say it was because of young people's impulsiveness.
Zhan Changfeng truthfully stated the scene at that time.
"You have done a good job. You have finally suppressed the storm in Zangyun Stream through political means. You must not provoke new conflicts at this juncture." Bai Hen fell into thinking, "What do you think of He Yuntian?"
Zhan Changfeng sat quietly on the table, folded his wide sleeves and poured two cups of tea, "Why does the elder ask this?"
"The Sky-Eyed White Tiger is the two great demons who stayed to guard the land. Many elders and councilors believe that the descendants of the Sky-Eyed White Tiger must be on our side, so they want to tie He Yuntian to our side. As for the binding method," Bai Hen He said, "Gu Hanzi hopes that he will inherit the Junzi Courtyard in the future, and after he retires, he will be recommended as an elder to replace Gu Hanzi's position."
Zhan Changfeng raised his lips and smiled, "Elder, do you want to listen to the truth?"
She had always been calm and gentle in front of Bai Hen. With this smile, Bai Hen felt the edge in it. He also understood that his feelings were correct. She was different after coming back from outside the world.
Before Bai Hen could figure out what the difference was, he replied, "But it doesn't matter."
"This son is extremely and surly in his behavior and has no hope for the country or his family." Zhan Changfeng said bluntly, "If a person like him becomes an elder of the Council of Elders and Masters of the Junzi Courtyard, I will resign and leave. This place is hopeless."
Bai Hen held it in for a while, but still couldn't hold it in, "Changfeng, I went to the outside world, but what stimulation did I receive?"
How does Hua Jianci look at people? They won't reveal their inner demons.
Zhan Changfeng calmed down and said, "It's really exciting to go to the outside world."
She did not continue, but instead said, "He Yuntian has the descendant of the White Tiger with Heavenly Eyes, and may also have the Wheel of Luck. However, if his character is not up to par, how can he be entrusted with such an important task? Elder Kuang Gu Hanzi's job is to oversee the internal affairs of the Elders' Council. Equivalent to the head of the ten elders."
She didn't say anything, so Bai Hen decided to go to Hua Jianci to ask for details. He couldn't just watch a child being harmed. "But the Junziyuan said that He Yuntian respects his teachers and is decisive in protecting his classmates. His tutor is very loyal." Qing Guan and other gentlemen were very optimistic about him, and Gu Hanzi also took him with him to teach him for a period of time, saying that he was very talented and practiced hard and diligently."
Bai Hen knocked on the table, "But judging from his performance in martial arts, he is indeed too ruthless and extreme."
"It's okay to be cruel and extreme. The point is that he has no overall view, is self-centered, and often maliciously speculates on others. If you are kind to this kind of person, he may repay you a thousand times, but if you hurt him If he doesn't do anything, even if his pride is accidentally touched, he will kill you and even anger the people around you."
When he was in China, Zhan Changfeng had a rough estimate of He Yuntian's character and behavior. Unexpectedly, a few years had passed and nothing had changed. He had become even worse because of his strength.
