King Peacock Ming couldn't help but look up at the Pearl Tower. After a while, she shook her head gently and said: "The Pearl Tower is as profound as the sea. Standing on it is like a drop of water in the ocean. I am so insignificant, so clueless, I don’t know where to start.”
Li Qiye just smiled faintly and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. No matter how vast the sea is, no matter how vast the secret is, it all has its source. If you take it step by step and don't accumulate steps, how can you reach a thousand miles. Walk up step by step from the bottom of the tower, walk up with the most pious attitude, until you reach the top of the tower. If it doesn't work once, try it twice. If it doesn't work twice, try it three times... As long as you persist, you will gain something."
"Step up to the top of the tower?" King Peacock Ming was also quite surprised. She couldn't help but look at the top of the tower, because she had heard the Holy Ancestor say that the most precious place in the Pearl Tower was at the top.
"There are no castles in the air in the world." The expression of King Peacock Ming made Li Qiye laugh and said: "Yes, the power of the Pearl Tower lies at the top of the tower, but without the support of the entire Pearl Tower, the top of the tower is just It’s just a round ball.”
"How did Young Master Li know this?" It seemed that Li Qiye had narrated all the things they had done in Suppressing Tianhai City. This could not have been told to him by Zi Cuining. Although Zi Cuining was the master of Suppressing Tianhai City, However, she is not in charge of the Pearl City. Even Zi Cuining doesn't know about secrets like the Pearl Tower.
Li Qiye just smiled casually and said: "If I don't know about things in the world, it would be a strange thing. The things I know are not strange at all. Go and understand. If you can understand the Transparent Pearl Pagoda , that will benefit you for a lifetime.”
"Thank you for your advice, sir." King Peacock Ming bowed slightly. In fact, she was surprised that Li Qiye knew so many secrets of Zhentianhai City. Li Qiye was unwilling to tell, and King Peacock Ming stopped asking.
King Peacock Ming and Li Qiye walked into the Peacock Mansion when they first entered the Peacock Mansion. Immediately, a confidant walked over quickly. When he saw Li Qiye next to King Peacock Ming, he couldn't help but take a second look. Without paying much attention, he whispered to King Peacock Ming: "City Lord, there is someone from the sect."
"Who is here?" Upon hearing these words, King Peacock Ming suddenly focused his eyes and said in a deep voice.
The disciple whispered: "Elder Sun." At this point. He couldn't help but glance at Li Qiye, and then said in a low voice: "He is from Ancestor Ye."
The Patriarch Ye mentioned by this disciple is Gu Zun’s eldest disciple Ye Jiuzhou!
"I'll go see him." King Peacock Ming calmed down and said commandingly, and then walked inside.
"City Lord, this person is coming with bad intentions, are you prepared?" The disciple said as he made a killing move. For their Pearl City, they have always been very wary of Ye Jiuzhou's people.
"Go." King Peacock Ming ordered, and then walked quickly inside.
These words. Li Qiye heard everything, he just smiled and walked inside with King Peacock Ming.
In the main hall, there was already an old man sitting there. This old man was wearing a robe and his eyes were very sharp. The aura emanating from him was enough to know how powerful this old man was.
There was a thin disciple standing next to the old man, serving tea to the old man, on the left and right sides of the main hall. There was a row of strong men standing. These strong men were all strong men in Tianhai City. They were wearing powerful clothes and had a sharp aura about them.
These are not disciples of Pearl City. He was the disciple brought by Elder Sun of Zhentian Hai City. Just imagine, in Pearl City, in this Pearl Mansion, Elder Sun, who came from Zhentianhai City, actually brought so many powerful people, it was indeed quite a bad intention.
After King Peacock Ming came in, Elder Sun stood up. He said slowly: "Prince Ming, long time no see."
Although Elder Sun came from Zhentianhai City, and he has been an elder for a long time, in terms of status and identity, King Peacock Ming is higher. Although King Peacock Ming is young, as the city lord of Pearl City, she is Ancestor level status.
"Elder Sun, I've been waiting for a long time." After King Peacock Ming sat down, he nodded in greeting.
Li Qiye was also an old god. He sat down on the big chair beside him. He glanced around and looked at the people brought by Elder Sun.
The strong men brought by Elder Sun stood on the left and right sides of the hall. Each strong man had a strong momentum, like a taut bow string, as if they would rush forward when Elder Sun gave the order.
Only the young disciple who was following Elder Sun was less courageous. He held the cup in both hands and glanced at King Peacock Ming and Li Qiye without knowing it.
Elder Sun was also very surprised when he saw Li Qiye sitting down in a majestic manner. At first, he thought that Li Qiye was just a follower of King Peacock Ming.
However, Elder Sun did not think too much about it. He stood in the center of the hall, with strong men standing on both sides. He clasped his fists towards King Peacock Ming and said: "King Ming, I am here this time to be entrusted by the master to pay tribute to King Ming." Congratulations."
"Where does happiness come from?" King Peacock Ming said slowly, unmoved.
"King Ming is in charge of Mingzhu Jiangzhu, which is a good way to govern and benefit the people. In Mingzhujiangzhu, not only the people live and work in peace and contentment, but also all the sects and factions are submissive to Mingzhujiangzhu. The great contribution of King Ming is within the sect. I am just looking forward to it..." All the kind words came out of Elder Sun's mouth.
If ordinary people hear such nice words, they will feel happy, as if they see that they will rise step by step, reach the top, and be proud of the world.
Only King Peacock Ming had a calm expression, sitting there unmoved, and said calmly: "It's just a trivial matter, why is it enough to be happy?"
"No, no, no, King Ming is too humble." Elder Sun shook his head hurriedly and said: "All the ancestors think that King Ming has made great contributions, and the leader also feels that King Ming's staying behind is really a disgrace to his talents. Therefore, after the leader and you all The ancestor decided that he would like to be promoted to King Ming as the chief elder, sit in command of Tianhai City, and assist the leader in managing the world."
Although King Peacock Ming is now at the level of ancestor, of course, if he is promoted to Chief Elder, his status will be improved even more. Moreover, becoming the right-hand man of the leader will be a more powerful stage for King Peacock Ming in the future. Big, no longer limited to Pearl City, but looking at the entire Zhentianhai City and even Beiwangyang.
"Really?" King Peacock Ming was not happy about such a promotion, and his reaction was very dull. She just said lightly.
"It's absolutely true, this is the sect's decree." At this time, Elder Sun took out the scroll, placed it in front of King Peacock Ming, spread it out, and said, "This decree is signed by all the ancestors and the sect leader."
King Kongque Ming glanced at it, just smiled faintly, shook his head, and said: "Elder Sun, as an elder, you should also know that I am the lord of Pearl City and I will not accept such orders. If you want an order, I will What we want is the decree, the decree of the leader, not this kind of signing order!"
"Without a legal decree, all signed orders are invalid in Pearl City." Having said this, King Peacock Ming put away his smile and looked majestic.
This is what King Peacock Ming said, the decree is higher than the signed order, because the decree is not only as simple as a signature, the decree also has the supreme will of the leader!
Elder Sun laughed dryly and said: "King Ming, you should also know that the sect is at a different moment now. If King Ming doesn't believe it, you can go to Zhentianhai City in person. When King Ming meets the leader, everything will be understood. , even if Prince Ming doesn’t believe me, he can always believe in the leader.”
King Peacock Ming shook his head and said: "Elder, friendship is friendship, but sect rules cannot be abolished. First, in Pearl City, only decrees can take effect; second, if you want to mobilize Pearl City, in addition to the decree of the leader, The Black Dragon Legion lineage, the Saint Ancestor lineage, and the elders of Xiaohai Village must also sign the edict at the same time for this to take effect, otherwise, no one can mobilize Pearl City."
Having said this, King Peacock Ming looked at Elder Sun and said: "As an elder, Elder Sun shouldn't know this, right? Without these two things, I will not enter Zhentianhai City, nor will I mobilize Pearl City. One soldier at a time!”
Elder Sun laughed dryly, rubbed his hands, and said: "King Ming, it's not like you don't know the situation in the sect now. Many ancestors are trapped and locked in the Black Dragon Hall, including the elders of Xiaohai Village. At this time , the elders will not be able to sign the decree for King Ming..."? "... Of course, King Ming can rest assured that after the Black Dragon Hall is opened, the elders will definitely sign this appointment decree for King Ming. I believe that King Ming's The appointment is still valid. King Ming has worked hard and made great achievements, so it is natural for him to be promoted."
Regarding such words, King Peacock Ming couldn't help but smile. Her smile could be said to be overwhelming.
The so-called promotion is just to move the tiger away from the mountain. Now for Ye Jiuzhou and his group, what they cannot control is Pearl River Zhu, and outsiders cannot take over Pearl City at all.
The status of King Peacock Ming is legal, and her position as city lord is not something that can be withdrawn if she wants. Even if Ye Jiuzhou can control the entire Zhentianhai City, he cannot remove King Peacock Ming from his position as city lord at will.
Therefore, now Ye Jiuzhou and the others are using promotion to transfer King Peacock Ming away from Pearl City. As long as King Peacock Ming leaves Pearl City, even if Ye Jiuzhou and the others cannot establish a new city lord, without a legitimate city lord like King Peacock Ming, Ye Jiuzhou and the others have a great chance to take control of Pearl City.
Of course, regarding things like promotion, benevolent people have different opinions and wise people have different opinions. If you want to achieve a higher status and achieve more achievements in Zhentianhai City, promotion is indeed a good way out.
However, for King Kong Ming, this is different. Now that Zhentianhai City is in danger, just as Zi Cuining entrusted her before, Pearl City will be the last stop for Zhentianhai City! (To be continued.)
