Based on Xuan Li Zhu's previous routine, when questioned and reprimanded by the prince, she would definitely burst into tears and defend herself with grievances.
But this time, she spoke righteously and chose to be tough.
"His Royal Highness, Shenjun Chengqi is His Majesty's loyal minister. He is also an elder, superior, and Li Zhu's savior. Li Zhu should respect him as the supreme one in both emotion and reason."
Du Su smiled coldly: "That makes sense, but I don't know, what should be the order among the three realms?"
Xuan Bei said loudly: "The king of heaven and earth, the master, the master, is the eternal truth!"
This is tantamount to accusing Cheng Qi of disrespecting the royal family, and also accusing Xuan Lizhu of not knowing the rules.
Xuan Lizhu's face turned pale.
Seeing that she couldn't catch her, Cheng Qi Shenjun immediately took the initiative to take the move.
"It's my fault. I just wanted to run the errands quickly and explain something to His Majesty. I'm not cautious and respectful to His Highness. Please forgive me. Mr. Xuan and Cheng Qian, please take a seat."
Xuan Lizhu immediately joined Cheng Qian in respectfully saluting Dusu and taking a seat.
So it became the prince's preoccupation again.
Dusu glanced at the two of them, slowly took out the sound transmitting ruler, and said softly and coquettishly: "Father~"
Shuhua suddenly got goosebumps all over her body. She believed that she was not a special case because Yunluo's ears were popping out.
A majestic voice sounded with a smile: "My son Dusu, what kind of injustice have you suffered?"
Du Su smiled and said: "It's nothing. I just want to report to my father that my son and I have made significant progress in killing Tian Pavilion, and Shenjun Chengqi has also arrived at his post."
The Immortal Emperor said happily: "My son is doing things very properly."
Du Su sighed: "There are times when my son is not right. Li Zhu dared not sit down in front of Shenjun Chengqi... Is my son too generous? After all, he is my father's minister, elder, and benefactor..."
The monks were immediately amazed that they could blatantly complain and provoke and confuse the public! Who doesn’t know that the Immortal Emperor has the most important rules!
Divine Lord Cheng Qi quickly stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, I am ashamed to be a humble minister!"
Xuan Lizhu's lips moved slightly, wanting to defend but couldn't, she just hated Du Su.
"Hahahaha..." The Immortal Emperor made a hearty voice and said calmly: "Cheng Qi, the prince is spoiled by me, he is still a child, don't care about it."
Also called Xuan Li Zhu: "Although I feel resentful, I still have to abide by the rules."
"Li Zhu is guilty!" Xuan Li Zhu knelt down and did not dare to raise his head.
The Immortal Emperor gently told Lingze: "Is the injury better? I have a few new high-grade Nirvana Pills here, which I will send to you. You should control your bad temper and be sure to cooperate with the Crown Prince and Cheng Qi. Keep the peace of the three realms.”
Lingze responded calmly, and the Immortal Emperor cut off the sound transmission ruler.
After all this tossing, everyone's status has been sorted out: Dusu is first, Cheng Qi is second, Lingze's position is firm, Xuanlizhu will be punished, and Cheng Qian continues to be transparent.
A deputy minister took the opportunity to please: "Your Majesty is really doting on His Royal Highness."
"That's natural." Dusu smiled sweetly and looked at Cheng Qi: "Does the Lord God have anything else to tell everyone?"
Cheng Qi Shenjun said with a gloomy face: "Keep tapping!"
Unfortunately, the momentum is no longer there.
Light it, light it, and arrive at Shuhua.
"Are you the legendary half-demon Shuhua? I heard that you have repeatedly performed extraordinary feats and are quite famous among the Ruyi Palace followers. That's really good."
Cheng Qi smiled and motioned for Shu Hua to step forward: "Let me test your depth."
Xuan Lizhu showed a terrifying and sinister smile, his nostrils slightly dilated with excitement, he was going to make this tree demon die on the spot today!
Yuelongsha pulled Shuhua in fear and whispered: "You can't go, he will definitely take the opportunity to harm you."
"Don't be afraid." Shuhua brushed away Yuelongsha's hand and walked forward calmly.
What matters today is momentum and bravery.
She can show respect to the new palace master, but she cannot be cowardly or timid. Otherwise, she will lose the respect and trust of the alliance and other colleagues.
As soon as Shu Hua touched Cheng Qi's hand, fierce and powerful divine power roared out, trying to destroy her meridians, Dantian and sea of consciousness.
Shu Hua froze instantly, her skin cracked, and her meridians were exposed and swollen, as if she was about to burst into pieces.
The monks were shocked and frightened, and they all looked at Lingze, hoping that he could come to the rescue.
Xuanli Zhuyun said calmly: "What are you afraid of? Shuhua's cultivation is unpredictable and it is obvious to all. The palace master is just testing her, and he will not kill her."
She covered her lips and smiled, looked at Lingze and Dusu, and poured out all the anger she had just received.
"You two can't take the lead in distrusting the palace master! Oh, I forgot, Lingze Secretary has severed all ties with Shuhuaen, so of course he won't act randomly.
His Highness the Crown Prince is responsible for the affairs of Mietian Pavilion, so of course it is not appropriate to interfere in matters of Ruyi Palace, otherwise it will be a violation of the rules. "
"It's not for the Chairman and the Crown Prince to interfere, let's go!" Seeing this, Yue Longsha decisively sent a message to Yunlu and Su Daji, preparing to rush out at all costs.
But he saw countless green roots protruding from behind Shuhua and piercing the ground hard.
The thunder and fire crackled, and all the monks felt the rich spiritual power centering on the special flower and spreading out to all directions.
Immediately afterwards, the cracked skin on Shuhua's body slowly but surely grew and recovered, and the exposed meridians were gradually covered with flesh and blood.
"Uh~" She embarrassedly covered her mouth and burped, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she smiled "weakly" at Cheng Qi.
"The palace master's power is tyrannical and unfathomable. His subordinates are far from being able to compare with you. I hope the palace master will spare his life."
Cheng Qi Shenjun frowned slightly and decisively withdrew his spiritual power: "The half-demon is magical, and it is indeed well-deserved!"
He knew that Shuhua would absorb the monk's spiritual power, so he directly poured 10% of her divine power into her, trying to kill or cripple her directly.
Unexpectedly, this tree demon has actually evolved another ability, its roots can channel excess spiritual power away!
After careful calculation, about 20% of his spiritual power just now was eaten by Shuhua!
What species is this? He has traveled through the three realms for many years, but he has never heard of it or seen anything.
"Bah bang bang!"
Dusu applauded vigorously and laughed: "It's really wonderful. There are very few people who can escape from the hands of Lord Chengqi. In my opinion, Shuhua's skills are enough to serve as the deputy director of the Hidden Killing Department. I wonder what your Majesty thinks?" "
Shuhua bowed his head and saluted, showing great humility.
The monks in Ruyi Palace applauded: "Shu Hua! Shu Hua! Shu Hua!"
"It seems that he has been welcomed by everyone." Cheng Qi Shenjun smiled. It was not easy to kill the tree demon today. He had to find another suitable opportunity. "Such an outstanding person can indeed hold this position."
Dusu urged Shuhua: "Why don't you thank the palace master quickly?"
"It's Xuan Sizuo who should be thanked. It was her strong recommendation that led me to test Shuhua's abilities."
Divine Lord Cheng Qi sent a message to Xuan Lizhu: "There is a long way to go. If you push her to the top, you can take the opportunity to establish your reputation."
Xuan Lizhu was so sorry that she smiled half-heartedly and refused to let Shuhua express her thanks: "It's useless to talk verbally. When I call you for something, please do your best and don't refuse."
The implication is that any time Shuhua refuses her from now on will be ungrateful.
