Chapter 45: The First Arrival in the Great Hall
After half a month of continuous travel, Meng Bo and Zhao Ying finally came to the legendary vast imperial city, the Celestial Empire.
As far as the eye can see, several huge goshawks soaring above the sky, patrolling the entire Celestial Empire. The walls of the Celestial Empire are like a huge shield, standing majestically and towering over the vast plains.
On the city wall, every five meters, there is a burly gold-armored guard. They stood solemnly on the towering city wall with spears in hand, like a magnificent picture scroll, which attracted the eye.
Outside the huge city gate, the people who entered the city lined up neatly in a long line, slowly advancing. In front of the city gate stood dozens of gold-armored guards, carefully checking the passers-by, not letting go of any clues.
The carriage bypassed the huge "long line" and went straight to the city gate. Zhao Ying showed a token, and all the gold-armored guards and people instantly knelt and kowtowed in unison, and the scene could be described as spectacular.
Meng Bo and Zhao Ying slowly drove the carriage through this endless corridor and came to the city.
Celestial Dynasty City is several times more prosperous than Suling City, the streets here are three times that of Suling City, and the shops and restaurants are even taller than the walls of Suling City.
Even the pedestrians on the streets are neatly arranged in two lanes, one inward and one outward, making the whole city appear prosperous and not chaotic.
In the city of the Celestial Empire, only the royal nobles were allowed to enter by chariot and horse, and ordinary people, even if they were rich, had to lead the chariot and horse to walk when they entered the city.
Zhao Ying and Meng Bo rode in a simple carriage and drove slowly through the city. The people in the city all looked at each other strangely, but they didn't know that the person riding in the car was the princess of the human race.
Despite their ignorance, they gave way to the carriages, knowing that the people who rode in the city must be those of illustrious origin.
Passing through this crowded avenue, Zhao Ying and Meng Bo came to the gate of the imperial court together. Hearing that Zhao Ying and Meng Bo were coming, the Emperor sent a palace manager to receive him, and there were dozens of men and women behind him.
This palace manager is a middle-aged man over half a hundred years old, who is one of the most powerful assistants beside the emperor, and has always been loyal to the emperor without the slightest rebellious heart.
He took Meng Bo and Zhao Ying to the main hall above the hundreds of steps, and these hundreds of steps were full of supreme power, and it was impossible for ordinary people to have the strength to take half a step in their hands. And Meng Bo and Zhao Ying easily climbed up, which also proved that the strength in their bodies was already very strong.
The hall was empty. Jian Huamu sent Meng Bo and Zhao Ying into the main hall, and then closed the door of the main hall.
The interior of the hall is resplendent and magnificent, and there is no overly complicated copywriting on the walls, but it still shows its luxury.
In the main hall, which could not be fitted at a glance, hundreds of thick red pillars rose straight from the ground to the ceiling. It's like hundreds of giants holding up the entire hall, tall and inviolable, and you will twist your neck when you look up.
"The sons and daughters participate in the emperor. Just as Meng Bo was stunned and watched, Zhao Ying suddenly knelt down.
Meng Bo reacted immediately, and he noticed the human emperor sitting on the golden chair on the high platform in the distance.
"The grass people meet our emperor!" Meng Bo also immediately knelt down and bowed to the human emperor.
When the Emperor saw this, he slowly said "um" and said to Meng Bo, "Get up, Meng Bo." ”
"Emperor Xie. Hearing the words of the Human Emperor, Meng Bo and Zhao Ying slowly stood up.
Zhao Ying told the Emperor of the People what happened to Su Lingcheng thoroughly. But the Human Emperor looked like he knew in advance, even if Su Lingjian fell into the hands of the demon clan, he was not surprised.
"Go down and rest. After listening to Zhao Ying's report, the emperor ordered the chief manager to open the door of the palace and welcome Meng Bo and Zhao Ying into the palace to rest.
But just as he was about to leave, Meng Bo, who had been silent, suddenly arched his hand at the Human Emperor and asked, "Then I don't know when the Human Emperor can send troops to attack the demon clan and retrieve the Su Ling Sword." ”
Zhao Ying on the side tugged at Mengbo's sleeve and anxiously signaled Mengbo to leave.
At this time, the Human Emperor looked at Meng Bo in the distance, thought for a long time, and said, "The time has not come, so let's retreat first." ”
Meng Bo anxiously thought that he was an ant on a hot pot, and he didn't know what the human emperor meant. He had no choice but to arch his hand and withdraw from the hall with Zhao Ying.
After closing the door of the palace, the emperor sighed in the main hall. He got up and went to the stage, quietly looking up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
In fact, every move before Zhao Ying and Meng Bo was well understood. In fact, he already knew about Su Lingjian, but for the Heavenly Dao Society, the Human Emperor still had some concerns.
The Human Emperor thought alone, and a trace of desolation flashed in his eyes.
It is difficult for mortals to escape the seven emotions and six desires, the so-called fair lady, a gentleman, not to mention the emperor above tens of thousands of people. More than ten years ago, the emperor also had a heart-wrenching love history.
She is like a flower, and a light green silk dress outlines her bewitching and charming figure. Her fragrance, like the lingering wisps of light smoke, leisurely crosses the hearts of others.
She is Qingxia, she is Mengbo's master, Yu Qingxia.
The first meeting with the Emperor was in the palace, and Yu Qingxia was placed by the Heavenly Dao Society to the Emperor.
With her gorgeous appearance and charming temperament, Qingxia successfully won the attention of the emperor.
Approaching the Human Queen, she told the Human Emperor the purpose of the Heavenly Dao Society one by one. Qingxia claimed that there would be a great calamity in the Three Realms, and only the Three Realms would work together, plus Su Lingjian and Mo Yi's reincarnation, to resolve it.
The Human Emperor laughed when he heard this, and asked Qingxia, "The Three Realms, except for the big sky, I am big. What calamities are there, and what are the calamities?"
Qingxia thought for a long time and then told the Emperor, "The Three Realms were originally created by one person, but this person's creation of the Three Realms is equivalent to destroying the Three Realms, so we must gather the power of the monarch of the Three Realms, use the Su Ling Sword to go back to ten thousand years ago, and stop that person from creating the Three Realms!"
The more the Emperor listened, the more confused he became, he waved his hand, looked up at Qingxia and said, "Then the Lone Emperor will unify the Three Realms, see who can turn up any stormy waves!"
The Emperor obviously didn't understand what Qingxia meant, but in fact, Qingxia herself didn't understand it very well.
Since then, Qingxia has left the imperial city and disappeared without a trace. And the human emperor has been thinking about Qingxia's words, but he has never figured it out.
Also since then, the Emperor of the People has been thinking about Qingxia for a long time, and whenever he learns the news of the Heavenly Dao Society, the Emperor of the People is very pleased. It wasn't until the demons were about to make a move that the Human Emperor had no choice but to kill the Heavenly Dao Society.
Although he was determined to eliminate the Heavenly Dao Society on the surface, in fact, the Human Emperor was still very protective of the Heavenly Dao Society. This time, Su Lingjian was robbed by the Heavenly Dao Society, and the Human Emperor didn't care, but he didn't want to kill the Heavenly Dao Society, and he knew the reason why the Heavenly Dao would do this.
However, the Su Lingjian Human Emperor will have to get it back sooner or later, and he should have a lofty goal, and he must rely on Su Lingjian!
Before that, he could only recuperate and cultivate Meng Bo, so that the power in Meng Bo's body could be used by him. When the time comes, it will be easy to retrieve Su Lingjian.
