Chapter 577 You are not a king

Emperor Xue Ye immediately took a deep breath, and then tried to make his smile as kind as possible.

"Marriage is a child's play. How can you just cancel it?" He said, "And this matter is related to the stability of our empire and the relationship between our two families. When the time comes, Qingqing will still be the queen of the future empire, and so will you. He’s Qingqing’s brother…”

He sighed and continued, "If you are still brooding about the past, Xue Beng has realized his mistake now. I can even make him swear a poisonous oath now. If he ever fails to Qingqing or Lu Yuan in the future, You will definitely die a good death!"

Hearing this, Xue Beng's eyes flashed with gloom, but he still looked sincere on the surface. He immediately swore to God, "Since you don't believe me, Lu Yuan, then I will swear here to all the late emperors of the Xue family..." "

"That's enough." Lu Yuan shook his head and said firmly, "Your Majesty, just think that Qingqing and I are out of reach. In fact, I originally agreed to the engagement with that... fake prince on Qingqing's behalf because Qingqing had always been interested in that person. The false prince has a good impression."

"As a brother, I don't want to exchange my identity as a sister for glory and wealth. Do you think it is necessary to do this with my ability?" He said righteously.

In fact, Lu Yuan's words were indeed correct. Lu Qingqing's original engagement with Qian Renxue was originally a means by Emperor Xue Ye to win over Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan's twin martial soul talents reached the level of Contra at the age of eighteen, surpassing Titled Douluo in terms of combat prowess.

If you say that such a person needs to sell his sister in exchange for glory and wealth, that is really an insult to Lu Yuan and an insult to any soul master.

Emperor Xue Ye originally wanted to win over Lu Yuan through this. Since Lu Yuan could not be the son-in-law of the royal family, he would just be the uncle of the royal family.

This purpose accounted for most of the reasons for the entire engagement, followed by the fact that Lu Qingqing's talent, strength, and appearance fully satisfied Emperor Xue Ye's vision of the next Emperor Tiandou and his future queen.

However, Emperor Xue Ye's face looked ugly, and a trace of anger flashed in Xue Beng's eyes.

Lu Yuan's words are really reasonable and convincing, but in the final analysis, he is unwilling to give Emperor Xue Ye face, and he extremely dislikes Xue Beng!

Just like the saying "Tiger girl Anken marries dog son".

Now Xue Beng is reminded of this sentence. Even if he becomes the prince, will he still be a "dog son" in Lu Yuan's eyes?

"Now that person has a fake identity, Qingqing has been deceived, and she is not in a good mood now. It is unreasonable for me to force her to marry another person she doesn't like."

"And if Qingqing's engagement can be easily changed now, what kind of woman will the world think Qingqing is?"

"Do you think Qingqing is a mediocre woman who only loves glory and wealth and the position of crown princess? As long as she is a human being and becomes the crown prince of the empire, Qingqing will have to fall in love with someone else?" Lu Yuan said in a deep voice.

"As for my sister Qingqing, I really don't want her to invite such criticism and suffer a lifetime of pain!"

"Who dares to criticize?" Prince Xuexing snorted coldly at this time and said, "Improper remarks about the king and the royal family are serious crimes and should be executed!"

"Behead? Can you kill the people of the world? And you are more vocal about defending the people than Fangchuan. Is such an act the behavior of a wise king?" Lu Yuan shook his head and said.

Moreover, this world is not an ordinary world. There are super powerful individuals like soul masters, although they will be "sometimes exhausted".

But precisely because of their presence, the imperial power in this world has not yet become as authoritarian as it was in Lu Yuan's previous life in ancient times.

Let me ask you, if you were a titled Douluo like Poison Douluo, and his family criticized the royal family, would you dare to punish Poison Douluo's family?

Not to mention the Poison Douluo, even a Contra like Andrew would not dare to punish him easily just for a word of criticism.

Unless someone is convicted of assassinating the prince like the Li clan did, they will be killed without mercy.

Emperor Xue Ye's originally good complexion became even more ugly because of this, and his eyes flashed.

Then he said, "In that case, I won't force it..."

Hearing this, both Xue Beng and Xue Xing looked shocked.

"Father..." Xue Beng shouted unwillingly.

Emperor Xueye shouted at this time, "That's enough. Since Lord Tianying loves his sister so much, how can he force others to do something difficult for her?"

His address to Lu Yuan changed from calling him by his first name to calling him by title. It was obvious that his attitude had changed.

"What do you think about Fengzhi?" Emperor Xueye looked at Ning Fengzhi again, trying to let Ning Fengzhi continue to be Xue Beng's teacher.

Since Lu Yuan cannot be won over, let him continue to have an in-law relationship.

Then win over Ning Fengzhi and the Qibao Glazed Sect.

However, he looked at Emperor Xue Ye, took a deep breath and shook his head, "Your Majesty... The sect is busy with affairs, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take on this important responsibility."

The so-called teacher-student relationship, after Qian Renxue's identity declined, Ning Fengzhi realized clearly that it was not very stable at all.

This teacher-student relationship is nothing more than a means. The teacher may teach the students a lot, but the students may not necessarily be very good to the teacher.

Just like what Tang San said so well, once you become a teacher, you will always be a father. But in the end, your father took you to the divine world, and your teacher died in the old world.

Even if Yu Xiaogang died, his soul would not know where he went.

Tang San had no intention of saving Yu Xiaogang's soul at all. What's the point of his soul entering reincarnation again?

Therefore, it would be better if this prince’s teacher should not be treated as such.

And after listening to Ning Shouzong's attitude of testing Xue Beng, it was obvious that Xue Beng was trying to make ends meet with him and Qibao Glazed Zongxu.

Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but think of what Ning Shouzong said before.

If it were Lu Yuan...

Lu Yuan is Rongrong's husband. If he ascends to that position, will he treat the Qibao Glazed Sect badly?

No...how could he think so?

Isn’t this idea a rebellion? !

But... if we don't rebel, if Xue Beng is really allowed to take the throne, what Ning Shouzong said will come true.

Then wouldn't the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect be destroyed at the hands of Xue Beng and Haotian Sect?

Ning Fengzhi had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and the two different thoughts of sect and loyalty were intertwined and fighting with each other.

But he shook his head and suppressed the chaotic thoughts for the time being.

Emperor Xue Ye's lips trembled. He did not expect that Ning Fengzhi also rejected his idea.

But he knew that when he passed away ten days later and Xue Beng ascended the throne, the empire would need strong power to ensure that nothing went wrong during the transfer of power.

But... he looked at Xue Beng, Xue Beng and the Haotian Sect...

In this case, the attitudes of Qibao Glazed Sect and Lu Yuan don't seem to be important.

Suddenly, he sighed and said, "In that case...I understand."

"You should step back first. You have worked hard during this period." Emperor Xueye said calmly.

His face was cold, and his attitude was completely different from the spring breeze before.

Moreover, there was no mention of Lu Yuan, Ning Fengzhi and others' meritorious service in escorting them this time.

Lu Yuan looked around the palace at this time. There were no attendants ready to come up with a tray at any time.

He frowned without trace, then nodded to Ning Fengzhi and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will take my leave..."

…

Lu Yuan, Ning Fengzhi, and Sword Douluo left the palace, and he chuckled.

From beginning to end, in the original plot, the Emperor Xue Ye entrusted Tang San with only one method, and Ganqing only used one method on them - to make Xue Beng kowtow to admit his mistake, and to admit his weakness in person.

As for other things such as the title of king and the "third level official" in the original plot, Emperor Xueye really didn't mention a word.

And it seemed that it was not because Lu Yuan and Ning Fengzhi rejected Emperor Xue Ye's request that they did not intend to mention it.

Emperor Xue Ye didn't even think about giving any substantive rewards to Lu Yuan and Ning Fengzhi. He only wanted to get Lu Yuan to agree to transfer his engagement partner to Xue Beng and Ning Fengzhi to continue to serve as the crown prince and grand master.

Is Tang San really the real protagonist?

It was easy to get so many rewards in the original plot.

No, Tang San was actually not a minister of the Tiandou Empire, the Tiandou Royal Family, or Emperor Xueye. In order to win over Tang San, an outsider, he must have a better attitude.

The principle of preferring to be with outsiders rather than being domestic slaves exists in any world.

As for Lu Yuan and Ning Fengzhi, they were originally servants of Emperor Xue Ye, so they could just be given some benefits.

In addition, after all, Lu Yuan and Ning Fengzhi already had a high status and far-reaching influence in the Tiandou Empire, so they could not be given any more power or high positions.

Having real power and strong strength has made it seriously difficult for Lu Yuan and Ning Fengzhi to balance.

If there is another tall false name, and the combination of false name and real power, it can even overthrow the empire.

Just like the Xingguan Sect who usurped the throne of the Star Luo Empire during the Peerless Tang Sect, they were already very powerful and had the prestige to save the Star Luo Empire.

Then the next step is to ascend directly to the throne.

In fact, Lu Yuan doesn't care about these things. What he really cares about is the thing hidden in the Tiandou royal family's treasure house - the Vast Sea Universe Shield!

The Vast Sea Universe Shield is, in a sense, a soul guidance device, but in fact it is the heart of the Poseidon.

And its true function is not known even by the Tiandou royal family and Emperor Xueye. It is actually an artifact used by Poseidon to select his successor.

Lu Yuan did not like the position of Poseidon, and with the characteristics of his three martial spirits, they were not suitable for the position of Poseidon.

You said that Tang San had a Blue Silver Emperor martial spirit, which is just a hint. After all, Poseidon represents the sea and water. The ocean and water nurture all things and represent life.

Then the Blue Silver Emperor is known for his strong vitality, isn't this just a perfect fit?

Although it sounds very ridiculous, it does have something to do with it.

But what about Lu Yuan’s three martial spirits?

Death Star Scythe, Dragon Lord and Nightbringer.

The power represented by the Death Star Scythe is the power of shadow and the Death Star. Death, nothingness, destruction, annihilation, end, and destruction are the power characteristics of the Death Star Scythe.

The power represented by Lord Shenlong is the power of the Storm Dragon. Strong wind and thunder are the characteristics of Lord Shenlong's power.

The power represented by the Night Messenger is the power of the night. Chaos and darkness are the characteristics of the Night Messenger's power.

The power of these three martial spirits does not match the power characteristics of Poseidon. Unless continuing to be a god is purely random and depends on talent and strength, Lu Yuan will not have a chance.

And even if Poseidon takes a fancy to Lu Yuan, Lu Yuan is still not happy.

Although Poseidon's status is not low, he is definitely inferior to the five gods Shura, Destruction, Life, Goodness, and Evil.

With the source of power controlled by Lu Yuan's three great martial souls, he would definitely not be satisfied with being relegated to the position of a second-level god.

He thought that the three gods Shura, Destruction and Evil were very suitable, but unfortunately, Destruction had no intention of running away, and it would take some time for the first generation of Evil to be offline.

The only suitable Shura god, whose inherited artifact, the Shura Demon Sword, is in Tang Chen's hands.

Whether it was Tang Chen who was dizzy or Tang Chen who was sober, he would definitely not hand the Shura Demonic Sword into Lu Yuan's hands.

Therefore, if you want to get the Shura Demon Sword, you must defeat Tang Chen.

Tang Chen, who has level 99 demigod strength, is not easy to defeat...

However, even if the Poseidon was not favored by Lu Yuan, it was a god's throne after all, and it was still good to have it in his hands.

And Lu Qingqing's martial spirit - Flowing Water Whip Blade, is a proper water-attribute martial spirit. After all, it is more suitable for the Poseidon position than Tang San, right?

It's just that his talent may not be as good as Tang San's, after all, he is a twin martial spirit.

But Lu Qingqing's cultivation speed was no slower than Tang San.

Moreover, it’s not like only people with twin martial souls can become Poseidon. Doesn’t Poseidon himself only have one martial soul, the trident?

With Tang San already on the leash, Lu Qingqing's talent was very good and her martial spirit was quite suitable.

Therefore, Lu Yuan is very optimistic that Lu Qingqing can be selected by Poseidon to participate in Poseidon's assessment.

The most important thing is that the Poseidon Examination can greatly improve the soul master's cultivation level in a short period of time, and this is the key.

Ning Rongrong, Yan Zhuyin and others are currently far inferior to Lu Yuan in strength, and Ning Rongrong still feels a little sorry for herself for this. This is a good opportunity for Ning Rongrong, Yan Zhuyin and others to advance rapidly and catch up with Lu Yuan.

For this reason, Lu Yuan actually started plotting the cover of the vast sea very early.

This time he thought that when Emperor Xue Ye was summoned to the palace, Emperor Xue Ye would give them the treasure hidden at the bottom of the box in order to win over them.

did not expect……

Lu Yuan chuckled lightly. Emperor Xue Ye wanted to use Xue Beng's pretense to win over them. He also wanted Lu Yuan to marry Qing Qing to Xue Beng and make Xue Beng worship Ning Fengzhi as his teacher, so he wanted to bribe them.

Not to mention the Vast Sea Universe Cover, Lu Yuan has made so many great achievements so far. He made plans and led troops to defeat the Star Luo Empire's million-strong army. He also exposed the Wuhun Palace's conspiracy in time and successfully escorted them.

It is said that the highest achievement is to protect one's chariot, but now even a prince is reluctant to part with it.

But it doesn't matter...it will be the same when he goes to the palace to look for her.

"Xiao Yuan, let's go back to the sect first." Ning Fengzhi was also feeling heavy at this time. He was still thinking about Ning Shouzong's words.

"Okay, Dad." Lu Yuan said in response.

Emperor Xueye's time is running out, only ten days, and in these ten days, everyone in Tiandou City will make important decisions.

But in less than ten days, what can you think of?

In the end, I can only be forced to panic and directly and subconsciously choose a decision that is most beneficial to me...

Otherwise, if you hesitate, you will only lose in the end.
