Episode 9: Famous Under Heaven Chapter 16: Gift of Greeting
The palace was heavily guarded, brave knights were everywhere, and there were also beautiful court attendants, His Majesty Joanne, Linley and the two of them were walking side by side, with Walton slightly behind them. After the three of them were some maids of honor and court attendants. The sergeants encountered on this path all bowed respectfully when they saw His Majesty Joanne.
“That’s Master Linley.”
Quite a few knights whispered to their companions when they saw Linley walking alongside His Majesty Joanne.
There was adoration and admiration in the gazes they looked at Linley. They were also young people, no younger than Linley, and many young people in the empire were aiming to cultivate hard with Linley as their goal.
“The O’Brien Empire is worthy of being the number one powerhouse on the Yulan Continent, these warriors in the palace are all very strong.”
Linley walked all the way over, but realized that there was surprisingly not a single warrior below level six along the way.
They were generally all rank six, with quite a few rank seven as well, and a handful of rank eights.
Even the warriors patrolling and guarding were so strong, the strength of the empire could be imagined.
“Linley, look at that, those guards are looking at you with glowing eyes. I’m afraid that in their hearts, their admiration for you could exceed that for this emperor.”
His Majesty Qiao An said with a big smile.
Linley smiled bashfully.
Ever since the battle in the martial arts arena, Linley’s great name had resounded throughout the O’Brien Empire, especially since Linley’s age made his achievements even more legendary.
In the minds of many people.
In his twenties. Not only was he a stone sculpture genius, but he was also a magical genius and a Saint realm powerhouse. Although Linley was gifted, it was enough for himself to reach one tenth of others if he worked hard ah.
This also makes, the empire land teenagers, young people cultivate more and more hard O’Brien Empire has formed a culture. If there are any geniuses, the empire itself will also publicize, coupled with folk propaganda. The influence on the people of the empire was great.
A dining table was set up in one of the pavilions in the palace’s back garden, and the only people eating together were just His Majesty Joanne, Linley, and Walden.
Palace maids brought up plates of delicious delicacies, and the surrounding guards stood around solemnly.
“All of you, stand down.”
His Majesty Johan waved his hand.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
All of the surrounding maids, attendants, and guards retreated, and in just a moment, only His Majesty Joanne, Linley, Walden, and the three of them remained.
His Majesty Qiao An glanced at Walton, in fact, on the way back from the Martial Hall. He had been wondering in the back of his mind.
Martial God, why would he help Walton?
In the empire, the Martial God was the absolute supreme existence, how old was Walton? How old is Walden? I’m afraid that there is no relationship between them.
“Could it be that the Martial God is somewhat related to the Dragon Blood Warrior Family’s ancestors? It doesn’t seem right. More than five thousand years. When the empire was founded, the Dragonblood Warrior Baruch was very famous, but he was only at the peak of the Holy Realm. There’s still a big gap between him and the Martial God Elder. There is a friendship between the two of them?”
His Majesty Qiao An didn’t believe it in his heart either.
The Martial God, but he was on the same level as the High Priest. Would there be such a deep friendship with Baruch? So much so that they would help a descendant more than five thousand years later?
“Walden.”
Her Majesty Joanne stopped thinking too much and smiled, “In a while, you’ll be engaged to Nina. You must take good care of Nina, this child Nina may have a bit of a princess temper, so I hope you can bear with her a bit. Wharton stood up his chest. Even said, ”Your Majesty. Please rest assured. Linley, however, glanced at His Majesty Joanne.
“Some days ago, Kellan he said that this Majesty Joanne would choose Brummer, but this time ……”
Linley’s heart had been a little puzzled.
Linley directly inquired, “Your Majesty. I would like to ask, what exactly is the reason for Your Majesty to choose my brother Warden?”
His Majesty Johan choked. “Haha ……”
His Majesty Qiao An laughed out loud, “Linley, this question has already been stated by this emperor in the great hall, and this emperor is also considering it from Nina’s point of view, after all, Nina herself is fond of Walton. To be able to make Nina happy, this Emperor would be deeply gratified.”
Linley snorted in his heart.
If you, Qiao An, were truly thinking about Nina, then you wouldn’t have pushed back when Walton had asked for marriage earlier on. Had to make a whole bunch of things up before finally choosing.
His Majesty Joanne saw Linley’s expression, “What? Linley you don’t believe it?”
“It’s a bit unconvincing.”
Linley said dryly.
His Majesty Qiao An was stunned, how could an ordinary subject dare to speak to him like this, but the one who said this was Linley, a peak Saint realm powerhouse, so His Majesty Qiao An could only dryly chuckle, “Speaking of which, when it came to choosing, this emperor did once think of choosing Brummerland.”
That’s right.
Although it was the first time Linley had met Kailan, he believed what Kailan had said.
“Linley, you should also know. What determines the strength of an empire is still a Saint realm powerhouse.”
His Majesty Joanne sighed, “A Saint realm warrior can easily kill an enemy general in an army of millions. And Saint Domain magicians, they can even cast destructive forbidden spells to exterminate millions of troops. It can be said that a …… Saint Domain is an invincible powerhouse in the eyes of ordinary people.”
Linley nodded his head, when he was a teenager, Saint Regions were indeed strong people standing at the peak in his eyes.
“Even though this emperor is an emperor, he doesn’t dare to forcefully order anything in regards to the holy domain. If you piss people off, they will directly leave the empire. I believe there are many places that are willing to accept Saint Domain powerhouses.”
His Majesty Qiao An smiled bitterly.
Linley also understood.
For a Saint realm powerhouse to escape, with their flying speed, it was truly easy.
“Walden and Brummer, they could both be Saint realm powerhouses in the future. But there’s a key point …… Brummer is a Martial God Sect land. Most of the empire’s experts gather at the Martial God Sect. This emperor is also unwilling to annoy the Martial God Sect, after all, where is not one or two Saint Domain powerhouses, but a batch!”
A batch of Saint realm powerhouses. Saying it out loud made people’s hearts tremble.
“With a few senior brothers of Brummer’s speaking, this Emperor has no choice.”
His Majesty Joanne shook her head and sighed.
“Then how did you end up choosing my brother Walden?”
Linley pursued.
He had always wondered what the reason for this was.
His Majesty Johan looked at the two of them, Linley and Walton, with a puzzled gaze, “Linley, does your Baruch family have some relationship with the Martial God elder?”
“The Martial God?”
Linley reacted instantly, shocked. “Your Majesty, you’re saying that it was because of the God of Wushu that you chose Wharton?”
“That’s of course.”
His Majesty Qiao An said, “Linley, you don’t think about it, in the empire, whose words can be more useful than the words of those personal disciples of the Martial God Sect? It’s only the supreme Martial God.”
“The Martial God his old man he directly ordered this emperor by soul transmission to choose Woden.”
There was a hint of excitement in His Majesty Qiao An’s eyes, “This is also the first time this Emperor can hear the voice of the Martial God’s old man.”
Martial God!
Surprisingly, it was the Martial God!
What kind of character was the Martial God. More than 5,000 years ago, he fought with the High Priestess on top of the Yulan River in a battle that was indistinguishable. An absolute Earth God level powerhouse.
More than 5,000 years later, although no one has seen the God of Wushu fight again. But everyone understood. After more than five thousand years, with the God of Martial Arts’ unparalleled talent, he must be even more terrifying.
The Martial God, who had cultivated from an ordinary person to a divine level, was very fast, just a few hundred years.
His rise to prominence made it so that more than five thousand years ago, he completely surpassed the four Ultimate Warriors of his contemporaries. It became the continent’s brightest figure.
“A Martial God helping my brother?”
Linley didn’t understand.
“Could it be that he was aware that there were six Saint realm powerhouses on my side?”
Linley became puzzled, with the strength of the Martial God. It was absolutely possible to discover the strength of Linley’s party.
Linley shook his head.
Impossible. To God-level powerhouses, Saint realm powerhouses were nothing. Six Saint realm powerhouses, I’m afraid the Martial God could kill them with a single move.
“Then what is it because of? Is it really because of my Baruch family ancestors?”
Linley was truly uncertain. What exactly was the reason that caused the Martial God to do this. The Martial God Mountain outside of the western part of the Imperial Capital City had four peaks besides the main peak, and there was a natural cave right at the point where two of the peaks connected.
The duo of Ranko and Kasroth were walking side by side in the cave.
After circling around the cave for hundreds of meters, the cave’s path unexpectedly and strangely went directly downward, and that deep cave, if one looked downward, one could not see the end at a glance. There was no way to know how deep this deep cave was.
“Whew!”
Kasroth and Ranko jumped directly into the deep cave, and then directly fell down, their falling speed was not fast, probably fell thousands of meters before the two of them lightly landed on the ground as if they were falling leaves. To know that the cave entrance to the ground is more than a thousand meters.
Thousands of meters, it was already deep underground.
“Teacher’s usual seclusion, a seclusion is a few years or decades or even longer, seclusion in the middle, almost will not pass sound to us. But this time, on that martial arts hall, let us tell Joanne to choose Walden, and now let us come here.”
Ranko was a bit puzzled.
This was not in line with the habits of the Martial God.
The Martial God was an ascetic, and very few things would cause the Martial God to make any orders.
“Senior brother, don’t be confused, there must be a reason for teacher to do this. Let’s just follow orders.”
Kasroth said.
“Yes, senior brother.”
Ranko nodded and responded.
In the eyes of the disciples of the Martial God Sect, the orders of the Martial God were inviolable, and whatever the Martial God told them to do, they had to do as well. There was no need to consider why at all.
“Snorting a burst of hot air came out from the depths of the cave, and the stone walls of the cave had gradually turned crimson.
The temperature was very high!
When continued to advance for hundreds of meters, Ranko, Kasroth, the pair of master and brother stopped in front of a dark stone gate, the stone wall around here had become completely crimson, that temperature highland was Ranko, Kasroth also had to be protected with fighting qi on the soles of their feet.
If a paper was thrown, I’m afraid it would just burst into flames.
“You guys are here.”
An indifferent voice came out from within the stone door.
The Martial God’s voice was indifferent, yet it had a penetrating power. That voice was like an awl piercing directly into one’s soul. Casrott, Ranko, and this group of pro-disciples even suspected that – the Martial God could even rely on his voice to directly shatter their souls.
This also made Caslotte and the other group of pro-disciples more and more in awe of their teacher, the God of Wushu. The strength of a Martial God was simply too terrifying.
“Yes, teacher.”
Kasroth and Ranko said very respectfully, and Kasroth continued, “I don’t know what teacher commands?”
The Martial God’s voice resounded once again, “April 12th is the engagement day of that Warden little guy, you guys go to your Eldest Senior Brother’s place to collect a spatial ring, and wait until the day of Warden little guy’s engagement, and send it directly over, just as a congratulatory gift.”
The two of them, Kasroth and Ranko, were dumbfounded.
A Martial God sending a congratulatory gift?
This kind of thing had never happened before, that is, if his personal disciple got married, the Martial God wouldn’t even care. What kind of character was the Martial God that he still needed to send congratulatory gifts to others? Even if he did, how many people would be qualified to receive them?
But Walton’s engagement, the God of Wushu even ordered them to send a congratulatory gift?
Moreover, the congratulatory gift was a spatial ring!
“You guys leave.”
The indifferent voice of the Martial God echoed in the cave.
Kasroth and Ranko looked at the dark stone door in front of them and glanced at each other. Although they didn’t understand in the bottom of their hearts, they didn’t dare to disobey the Martial God’s order.
“Yes, teacher.”
The two of them, Kasroth and Ranko, responded respectfully and incomparably.
