Chapter 182 Five major sects arrive early
Daqian Palace.
Back Garden Banquet Center.
Countless dignitaries gathered, holding up their glasses and flattering each other about business.
Chu He looked at this unique dinner and was secretly amazed.
At first, he thought it was the kind of thing where the old King Qian sat in the main seat, with a table of dignitaries sitting around him, and below that, there were seats of high-ranking officials, and finally the little guys like them.
So, guess what happened to the dinner?
There was only one chair in the center of the entire banquet, the dragon throne of the old King Qian. The rest of the people were standing there, holding plates and holding wooden chopsticks.
Dozens of palace maids in goose yellow long skirts and with delicate faces were adding various dishes in an orderly manner, including dragon liver, phoenix gall, flame bear paw, Tianxin vegetable, etc.
Then you will see.
One by one, the nobles walked over with their plates in hand, picking up whatever they liked...
Who said Daqian was a feudal dynasty?
Isn’t this a buffet dinner that’s even more Blue Star than Blue Star?!
However, after Chu He looked around, he did not find the figure of the Ninth Princess.
It seems that Marquis Diwu is also missing?
Just as Chu He was thinking secretly.
The old Qian King's sincere voice came from above, "My dear ministers, you are all the backbone of Daqian, the pillars, the future... Daqian has been established on the basis of military power for a thousand years, and the martial spirit is strong. Tonight, just drinking is rather monotonous..."
shhhhh--
Everyone's eyes instantly fell on the figure in the middle. Was he trying to play tricks?
Sure enough, the next moment.
The old Qian King turned his gaze and looked at the three ministers in front of him, holding up his wine glass, and said, "Three ministers, you are the pillars of the Great Qian, three generations of veteran ministers. What do you think?"
The three officials looked at each other.
The Grand Tutor stepped forward, bowed, and said humbly, "Your Majesty, Daqian's military strength is unrivaled in the world. All under heaven belongs to the king, and no one dares to disobey his orders. The soldiers of Daqian bravely killed the enemy, conquered the desperate situation, annihilated the demons, and protected the vast lands of Daqian. This is all due to Your Majesty's achievements!"
"Hiss—" Everyone gasped. The flattery of intellectuals is extraordinary.
Sure enough, when the old King Qian heard this, his eyebrows widened and he burst into laughter.
"However, we are already old. Even if we have the will, we are powerless."
Listen, what is this?
A dignified third-rank grandmaster tells everyone that he is old and frail?
Would you like to be given a chance to reorganize your language?
Just the person who speaks.
He holds great influence in the Daqian court, so everyone is waiting for him to continue selling melons.
Even the old King Qian looked at him sideways.
This old fellow, as always, understands my intentions very well.
“…Therefore, this old minister suggests that the many young geniuses present compete with each other to make their names known throughout the world!”
The Taifu finished speaking.
He bowed to the old King Qian and retreated.
"Good, very good!"
Sure enough, it was just as everyone expected.
Old King Qian laughed and clapped his hands in approval.
"My dear ministers, do you have any opinions?" The old King Qian glanced around.
"Your servants, we have no objection!" Everyone bowed hurriedly.
What a joke! This is obviously a double act between the Grand Tutor and the old King Qian. What opinion can they have?
"Okay, in that case, then..."
At this time, a eunuch came over quickly and whispered to the old King Qian.
All over the world.
The only person who can have this "honor" is Eunuch Zhang.
Old King Qian frowned.
"Is something wrong?"
"I don't know, but judging from the king's expression, it shouldn't be a good thing..."
Seeing this, the people below began to discuss in low voices.
However, since the old King Qian was present, they did not release their spiritual thoughts to show respect.
There are only a few martial saints in the field.
There was a gleam in his eyes. Haha, the people from the sect actually arrived early?
This is interesting...
Of course, no one dared to cause trouble.
Given the cruelty of the old King Qian, if anyone dared to cause trouble or make him lose face, he would make that person and his entire family go down to the banquet.
After a while.
Under the gaze of everyone, Eunuch Zhang came in with dozens of people.
Walking in front were five old men with ethereal air.
"Greetings to His Majesty the Great Qian." Everyone came over to pay their respects.
They would definitely not miss these normal steps. After the greetings, five of the elders stepped forward, bowed again, and said, "Your Majesty, we were outside and happened to hear that Your Majesty was going to select the young geniuses of Daqian. We, the disciples of the sect, happened to be here too."
"I wonder if we can participate?"
I see? !
Everyone in the field understood.
I guess someone in the palace leaked the news, and the old Prince Qian wanted to hold the competition at the dinner on the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Look, these sects that are not on good terms with Daqian are coming over like dogs smelling shit.
The sects that came over were all among the ten righteous sects, namely Sunset Sect, Shennong Sect, Zhenwu Sect, Jinding Temple, and Huochan Island.
These five major sects.
Any one of them is far inferior to Daqian, but when the five of them join forces, even the old King Qian would have to frown slightly.
After all, there are ten evil sects watching closely, waiting for an opportunity to strike!
After hearing what the five people said.
The old King Qian's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of murderous intent. Obviously, he also thought about the news being leaked.
Then, he glanced at Eunuch Zhang without leaving a trace.
Eunuch Zhang nodded slightly.
No matter who this kind of traitor is, he will have only one fate.
"You are all from Daqian, so you can naturally participate!"
As soon as the old Qian Wang said this, the tone was set.
However, the five elders looked a little unhappy. They had harbored rebellious thoughts for a long time, and now that the old King Qian emphasized this, they naturally felt uncomfortable.
However, they are all masters at the grandmaster level, and their ability to read people's expressions has long reached the point where they can remain calm even when facing a crisis. Even if they feel uncomfortable in their hearts, they will not make trouble.
It's not the right time to attack now, but we can take the opportunity to humiliate them first.
Thinking of this, the five of them looked at each other secretly, then nodded to the old King Qian and said, "Your Majesty is right!"
"However, this competition was a sudden idea of mine, and also because of the Three Lords' suggestion. In addition to the noble status and the earth-level skills they mentioned, I will also grant you an opportunity to enter the Great Qian Treasure Hall!"
"hiss--"
Everyone present, including those from the five major sects, was slightly startled at first, and then their eyes became hot.
Daqian Treasure Hall.
The world-famous treasure house contains countless treasures, even several of the magical weapons listed in the Divine Weapons Catalogue are collected there.
This is a treasure that can protect the world!
Its value is almost as great as that of a Martial Saint appearing in the sect.
However, the next words of the old King Qian made the expressions of the elders of the five major sects change slightly.
"I just wonder what precious treasures the elders have prepared as prizes for this competition!"
The old King Qian emphasized the word "precious treasure" very much, and his tone implied that he could not refuse.
You want to cause trouble?
no problem.
Just be prepared to bleed!
At the same time, a great dragon energy was slowly released and landed on the five people.
Suddenly, the grand and profound aura, as powerful as a prison, made the five people's faces stiffen, as if freezing some inappropriate thoughts in their hearts.
They shuddered subconsciously.
The five of them looked at each other again, with a hint of helplessness in their eyes. In Tianjing City, especially in the palace, even if the ancestor of the sect came.
There is no possibility of resistance, let alone them?
I can only bleed!
However, when they thought of the talented disciples in the sect, there was a hint of pride in their eyes.
As long as the talented disciples in their sect win, won’t all these treasures be returned?
Besides being slapped in the face.
You can also get back a local-level martial arts technique from Daqian.
Why not?
