Flame Emperor Palace.
As the holy land of the entire Yan Dynasty, the palace was surrounded by steaming clouds and fairy aura, filled with indescribable pressure and mystery.
In the splendid hall, on the throne, he is wearing a tasseled phoenix robe. He has a dignified temperament without losing his majesty.
At this moment, five figures stood quietly in the main hall.
Prince Jiang's Mansion, Jiang Taiyuan.
Prince Qi's Mansion, Qi Yuan.
Prince Qi's Mansion, Qi Jin.
In addition, there are two figures.
One of the figures was a burly middle-aged man with red hair and a burning flame all over his body.
This is the owner of Fenyan Valley, Huang Yichu.
The other figure is a beautiful woman. She has a delicate face and an explosive figure. She exudes an indescribable charm, like a foreign girl.
This woman's name is Munan Zhi, and she is the patriarch of the Qingluan tribe.
In a corner of the hall, Qin Sheng stood quietly, frowning slightly. These people in the hall could be said to be the top group of people in the Yan Dynasty.
Behind each are the top forces of the Yan Dynasty.
Now that these big guys are gathered together, I guess they have something important to discuss.
In the main hall, the silence lasted for a few moments. King Qi slowly spoke and said: "Recently, the Northern Desert Nebula Legion seems to be ready to make a move. Several actions have been directed at our Yan Dynasty."
Munan Gardenia nodded slightly, with a charming look in her eyes, and said: "The Nebula Legion and I, the Flame Emperor, have long had a grudge, and what is supposed to come will come sooner or later."
"Yes, when the Nebula Legion was imprisoned in the past, the previous Flame Emperor led the nine royal palaces with the intention of annexing the Nebula Legion. Unfortunately, it was a waste of time. From then on, the two tribes were almost mortal enemies." Qi Jindao sighed and continued road:
"Although the previous Flame Emperor has died, a rift has been formed after all. Now the Nebula Legion is as powerful as a rainbow, and its strength is not weaker than that of our Flame Dynasty. We must guard against it."
On the phoenix throne, the Flame Emperor stared at everyone and said: "In this case, how do you think we should set up defenses?"
King Qi said: "If we want to eliminate external troubles, we must resolve internal ones."
"Oh?" Yan Huang stared at him, his bright eyes flashing slightly, and said, "Where is the internal worry?"
King Qi thought for a while and said: "The younger generation of our Yan Dynasty are all in the four pavilions. They are the middle-class support of our dynasty. However, since the death of the previous chief pavilion master, there has not been a real member of the four pavilions in these years. The chief pavilion master who serves everyone."
"Although there are many heroes in our four pavilions, without the chief pavilion master, the younger generation of the four pavilions cannot be united. How can they compete with the star card masters of other forces if they are so scattered and have no cohesion?"
"Therefore, I would like to boldly request the Flame Emperor to select a candidate for the Chief Pavilion Master."
The Flame Emperor nodded, and his ethereal voice, without a trace of emotion, resounded from the hall.
"The position of Chief Pavilion Master should indeed not be vacant, but there has never been a suitable candidate."
"Since you are looking forward to it so much, you might as well tell me who should be chosen."
King Qi and Munan Zhi looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, then gritted their teeth and said, "I think Zhou Sheng is good."
"He once won the Holy Land League championship, and now he is the master of the Lei Pavilion. He is also the youngest card master in our dynasty. The position of chief master belongs to him."
Munan Zhi nodded and said: "There is indeed no more suitable candidate than Zhou Sheng."
Hearing this, Qin Sheng's eyes narrowed. Could it be that Zhou Sheng, who had always been neutral, had been won over by the Jiang Wang faction?
However, if you think about it, it makes sense.
This Zhou Sheng was a disciple personally trained by the previous Flame Emperor, and the Empress personally killed the previous Flame Emperor, so it was indeed reasonable that he favored the Flame Emperor and kissed Prince Jiang.
Yanhuang looked calm and could not see the slightest disturbance.
"I don't think so." Qi Jin.
King Qi narrowed his eyes and said, "Why?"
Qi Jin said: "The previous Flame Emperor sent him to the Nebula Legion to challenge him, but he was beaten to death by a refugee from the Nebula Legion."
"This battle has made our Yan Dynasty lose face and almost become the laughing stock of the entire Tianyuan Continent. So, why is he qualified to be the chief pavilion master?"
Qi Yuan smiled and shook his head, saying: "What King Qi said is different. Although Zhou Sheng lost, his opponent was not an easy person. He was not an ordinary refugee."
"That person's name is Xiao Xuan. He was the former Tianyuan Continent Star Card League champion. He was the one who killed him when he became the Chief Pavilion Master. Therefore, losing to him is not a shame."
Qi Jin sneered: "I'm afraid that if Zhou Sheng really becomes the chief pavilion master, these four pavilions will become the second Prince Qi's palace."
Hearing these words, King Qi's face suddenly sank. He slammed his palm on the table and said, "Qi Jin, don't go too far!"
"What, when it comes to pain, you are so angry?" Qi Jin retorted.
Qi Yuan's face turned cold, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and the star energy around him filled the air, shaking the void.
Qi Jin's eyes suddenly became sharp and he said, "What, you want to fight me?"
Suddenly the star energy filled his body, and the star card appeared in his palm.
"You two, please don't be too unruly."
At this moment, Zhuo Ying's ethereal voice slowly sounded from the phoenix seat.
Seeing the Flame Emperor speak, the two men snorted coldly and took back all the star energy around them.
"That's not possible, Zhou Sheng," Yanhuang said.
Jiang Taiyuan, who had been silent all this time, his eyes flashed at this moment and he said: "Forgive me, Emperor Yan, can you tell me why Zhou Sheng can't do it?"
Hearing this, Zhuo Ying felt a little unmotivated. She lowered her starry eyes and said casually: "I don't like it. Is this a good enough reason?"
That slightly sharp tone made the air in the hall suddenly freeze, and even the atmosphere seemed depressing, making people breathless.
King Jiang frowned slightly and said: "If Emperor Yan feels that Zhou Sheng is not good enough, there are many other leaders in our four pavilions. All in all, the position of chief pavilion master cannot be delayed any longer."
Zhuo Ying raised her pretty face slightly, and a stream of light appeared in her starry eyes, saying: "Nowadays, although there are many leaders in the four pavilions, it is difficult for them to convince everyone."
"So, I suggest you wait a little longer to see if there are talents who can convince the public, and wait until the end of next year before making a decision."
King Jiang: "Yan Huang, who are you waiting for?"
Zhuo Ying: "When the Nebula Legion was in decline, that refugee appeared, and from then on the entire legion began to rise."
"His Nebula Legion can have such talents, but our Huanghuangyan Dynasty may not have them."
Qi Yuan chuckled and said: "A proud man like Xiao Xuan is rare to see in a hundred years. It is a blessing to be one of them. How can he appear so often?"
"Just because he didn't show up, it doesn't mean he won't show up." Zhuo Ying shook his head and said, "I think that before Xiao Xuan appeared, Yan Wangqing, the former leader of the Nebula Legion, never thought that a refugee would appear and lead The whole legion rises.”
Qi Yuan and Munan Zhi looked at each other, and their eyes turned to Jiang Taiyuan in unison.
Jiang Taiyuan fell into silence. After a long while, he looked up at Zhuo Ying and said: "Since the Flame Emperor insists on this, I have nothing to say. I just hope that by the end of next year, whether there is a suitable candidate or not, the Flame Emperor can take over the position of President." The position of Pavilion Master has been decided.”
"This is my last concession."
When the voice fell, he suddenly turned around and walked towards the outside of the hall.
"I'll take my leave."
Qi Yuan and Munan Zhi followed closely behind and left the hall.
On the phoenix throne, the Flame Emperor stared at King Jiang's retreating figure, holding his jade hands tightly, with a hint of helplessness and anger flashing through his eyes.
"Are you forced to have a baby? Haha."
…
After the game, Luo Feng quickly returned to the cave.
He didn't dare to slack off at all, because the end was also a new beginning.
The next enemies are each more difficult to deal with.
In the courtyard.
Luo Feng sat cross-legged, using the Taiyi True Water Technique, and his whole body suddenly became exquisite and translucent.
He gently rubbed the star ring and took out the pulse-opening pill from the jade box.
The fragrance spread out, and the star energy in the entire cave seemed to become much richer.
"I hope I can break through to five stars in one fell swoop."
Luo Feng's mind surged, he opened his mouth and swallowed the pill in one gulp.
boom!
When the Vein Opening Pill enters the body, it turns into a majestic warm current, like an explosion of magma, flowing towards the limbs and bones.
Luo Feng's face also became solemn at this moment, running the Taiyi True Water Technique, manipulating the power to flow into the sea of qi, and then began to pulse.
In the courtyard, the scent of Danxiang filled the air, getting stronger and stronger.
Uchiha Pikachu and SpongeBob were attracted, thinking that Luo Feng had secretly eaten something good.
As time went by, the congestion in the fifth star vein became weaker and weaker.
Shit!
A sound like a membrane cracking sounded.
Luo Feng looked down and saw that the fifth star vein had been washed away!
boom!
His momentum was rising steadily, and his level of power was far beyond what he could compare to before.
"The feeling after washing is so refreshing." Luo Feng's body was soft and soft, and his face was red. He felt that his body had become much lighter at this time.
At the same time, some impurities are expelled from the body.
The feeling of increased strength and comfort.
"Five-star card disciple."
Feeling the expanding power within his body, Luo Feng felt at this moment that everything was worth it.
He took a bath, changed his clothes, and then walked out of the cave, staring at the waterfall opposite in a daze.
"I haven't seen the empress for a long time since my last walk." For some reason, Luo Feng suddenly thought of her.
I miss those little hands a bit.
He still clearly remembers the cold touch of his hand.
"What are you doing in a daze? Do you miss me?"
At this moment, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
Luo Feng was slightly startled when he heard the sound, turned around suddenly, and then saw Zhuo Ying leaning at the door of the cave, looking at him with a smile.
Today, she is wearing a bright red dress, her face is as beautiful as a painting, her skin is as crystal clear as snow, and when her long and narrow phoenix eyes are narrowed, she exudes a majesty, like a true phoenix who has not fallen from the mortal world.
The golden setting sun seemed to be her background, making her look like a fairy.
"I've seen the Flame Emperor." Luo Feng looked stern and bowed to him.
"Hey, I've already held my hand, so stop pretending." Zhuo Ying looked at him, blinking her eyelashes, and said, "Don't you want to admit that you held my hand?"
Luo Feng twitched the corner of his mouth. One second he was the spotless Jiutian Xuannv, and the next moment he turned into a cute girl next door.
"Yan Huang, you ordered me to hold it for you that day. If I didn't give it, I would be disobeying the order."
"What do you mean?" Zhuo Ying's pretty face was slightly condensed, with a faint coldness lingering in her eyes, and she said: "If I were not the Flame Emperor, wouldn't you help me?"
"No, no, no, no, that's not what I meant, Emperor Yan." Luo Feng suddenly felt a little dizzy. He rubbed his brows and suddenly realized: "Emperor Yan, I already know how to cook the dish you asked me to learn last time." Done."
"Come in and I'll do it with you."
…
"For this fish fillet and seafood porridge, you first need to use cornstarch and egg yolk to catch the fish fillet to ensure it tastes fresh. Remove the shells from the back of the shrimp and chill it slightly."
"Then add shiitake mushrooms and scallops with star rice to cook the porridge. When done, add the marinated sashimi and shrimp to the porridge along with shredded ginger. Add a small spoonful of butter. When it's about to come out of the oven, add a few slices of lettuce and green onions. It’s done.”
Luo Feng vividly described the fish fillet and seafood porridge on the round table.
Looking at it with beautiful eyes, I saw the porridge rice cooked until it is thick and soft, plump and beginning to bloom. The snow-white rolled sashimi, tender red shrimps, and fresh lettuce in the porridge are shining with translucent color, making people salivate. .
"It tastes great, like..."
Luo Feng wanted to continue describing, but was interrupted by Zhuo Ying.
"Stop talking, no spoilers, I want to taste it myself." Zhuo Ying's eyes were bright, her throat was crawling, and she took a spoonful and tasted it carefully.
The rice porridge is soft and fragrant, and the sashimi is soft and tender, melting in your mouth.
The shrimps are crispy and refreshing, retaining their original umami flavor without any fishy smell.
After one bite, you will feel warm from your stomach to your whole body, and the taste is incredible.
Looking at the expression of enjoyment on the empress's face, Luo Feng sighed in his heart, she is really a foodie.
"You're not afraid of gaining weight." Luo Feng said.
Zhuo Ying was stunned for a moment, staring at him with her beautiful eyes, and said, "Did you dislike me because I gained weight?"
"No, no, no." Luo Feng looked at her beautiful but haggard face, suddenly feeling a little distressed, and said, "Eat, eat big."
While Zhuo Ying was eating, he said casually: "Didn't you meet Mu Qingluan in the morning forty-three years ago?"
Luo Feng's eyelids twitched and he said carelessly: "Well, I went to the Star Tower to collect materials and happened to see her."
"Oh, what a coincidence." Zhuo Ying was still eating porridge by herself and said without raising her head: "Did I tell you anything?"
"Just wish me good luck in the competition and make my name famous in the Holy Land."
"anything else?"
"That's roughly it."
"Details, I want details."
Luo Feng thought for a while and said, "She said that Prince Qi's palace sent people to the Qingluan tribe to urge her to marry Qi Xiao."
Zhuo Ying raised her eyes and said, "What next."
Luo Feng: "Qingluan said that she already has a heart, but she is still a better person than Qi Xiao."
"Qingluan?" Zhuo Ying stared at him and said in a faint tone, "You sound so friendly."
"That person shouldn't be you, right?"
Luo Feng smiled bitterly and said: "She said that if I can really shine in the Holy Land League and overwhelm all the proud people, then even if I am her husband, she will not suffer... Of course, even if she is like this I think I will reject it too. I am a tall and handsome man with arms and legs. Do I want to marry into her Qingluan clan and be supported by a woman?"
Zhuo Ying squinted her eyes and smiled, and said: "The Qingluan clan is quite good, the Huanghuang clan is rich, and Mu Qingluan is beautiful and beautiful. If he becomes a wife, he will save decades of hard work and be blessed for three generations."
Luo Feng said seriously: "Emperor Yan, I am not such a person."
"Then what kind of person are you?" Zhuo Ying put down the spoon, held her cheek in her jade hand, looked at him with bright eyes, and said: "For a person with no background like you, just relying on your own efforts will be a long way. not enough."
"If nothing else, when you graduate from Holy Land College, you will have to consider buying a house. This will be a big obstacle in your life."
Luo Feng was startled when he heard this, and his face looked a little funny. He had never seen the protagonist in any fantasy novel need to consider buying a house.
"In Yanhuang City, are the housing prices very expensive?"
"It's a bit for ordinary people. You can move to my place and I can lend you a place to live in first."
"No, no, no, I'm afraid I can't afford it."
"Then there's no need to pay it back." Zhuo Ying said.
Luo Feng's lips twitched: "Aren't you afraid that I will sell the house and run away with the money?"
Zhuo Ying raised her eyes, looked at him with her beautiful eyes doubtfully, and said, "If you are short of money, you can just ask me for it. Why do you want to sell the house?"
Luo Feng: “…”
"It's delicious." After eating half of it, Zhuo Ying smiled like a flower. Perhaps because she was too happy, she patted Luo Feng's shoulder with her jade hand.
That hand just rested on it quietly.
Luo Feng trembled all over, a look of pain flashed deep in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
At the same time, Zhuo Ying also noticed something and said, "What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." Luo Feng said.
Zhuo Ying glanced at him suspiciously, as if she had thought of something, and said, "Expose your shoulders."
Luo Feng took off his clothes, exposing his shoulders, and saw a bruised palm mark on it.
"Luo Feng! You, why don't you cry out in pain?"
Zhuo Ying suddenly felt guilty. She was a strong person in the Kahuang realm, and her body contained rich star energy. If she was not careful, she might have killed Luo Feng.
Maybe he was too excited just now, his hands were wrapped with a faint star energy, so when he patted Luo Feng's shoulder, there were palm marks.
If she hadn't noticed the painful look in Luo Feng's eyes, she wouldn't have known that Luo Feng was injured.
"It's okay, I'm fine." Luo Feng forced a smile.
"What are you doing? If you don't take care of it in time, your shoulder will be ruined." Zhuo Ying was a little angry and a little guilty. She silently stretched out her white jade hand and put it on Luo Feng's shoulder, stimulating the star energy in her body to help him. Remove blood stasis and heal injuries.
Luo Feng leaned on the chair and enjoyed it quietly. Zhuoying's jade hands were pressed against his shoulders. That feeling was soft and smooth, smooth but not greasy. He was afraid that it would stay deep in his heart forever and he would never forget it. .
The sun sets in the west, and the waning moon is like blood.
Zhuo Ying guarded Luo Feng, carefully helping him deal with his injuries, with such a caring look, she was like a little daughter-in-law.
As for Luo Feng, his eyes gradually narrowed, as if he was too tired. His body fell sideways, and he fell asleep with his pillow on Zhuo Ying's slender legs.
"I don't know if I'm really asleep or pretending to be asleep."
Zhuo Ying lowered her beautiful eyes slightly, looking at the young man in her arms, her long eyelashes blinking.
"Heh, man."
