Chapter IV Duke of the Third Class
When Qin Cha arrived, Luo Batian, the city lord, naturally needed to come out.
Almost as soon as the Golden Flying Demonic Beasts arrived in the sky above Quang Binh City, from the City Lord's Mansion, a thousand members of the Flying Guards commanded the Flying Demonic Beasts to soar into the sky, forming two rows in the sky and making a gesture of greeting.
Luo Batian soared into the sky, stepped into the air, and appeared in front of the Golden Beamon Beast.
Looking at this behemoth, even Luo Batian couldn't help but be shocked, and he gasped in his heart.
It's just that Luo Batian knows that the person who came this time is not simple, just a Qincha identity is not something he can compare.
"Luo Batian, the city lord of Guangping City, greet the ambassador of Qincha. Luo Batian was in the void, but he bent down slightly and performed the officialdom etiquette of a subordinate.
Golden Beamon Beast, Luo Batian This is the second time I have seen it.
The first time was when he was in the national capital, he was named the city lord of Guangping City, and he was able to meet His Majesty XiΓ , who was traveling on this golden beast at that time, and barely saw himself. Don't look at yourself as the city lord of Guangping City, but it's not that you can see your majesty at will, in the eyes of your majesty, you are just an official position of the third grade.
Among the national capitals, there are many officials above the third grade, and the thousands of officials who appear in the Purple Gold Hall will be at least one from the third grade.
In this case, how could the emperor deliberately remember a positive three products?
As the unique golden beast of the Great Chu Dynasty, who doesn't know that this is the palace of His Majesty? Now seeing the arrival of this golden beast, Luo Batian is naturally shocked, needless to say, the person who can use this palace, except for the emperor, is the prince.
Luo Batian's eyes swept over the Golden Beamon Beast, and he only saw some colored flags, and outside the big Chu character on these colored flags, there was a half-scaled dragon dancing with its teeth and claws.
"It turned out to be the eldest prince. β
In an instant, Luo Batian knew from this half-scaled dragon that it was the Great Prince.
In the Great Chu Dynasty, the emperor was a full-scale dragon, and the great prince was a half-scale. Other than that, other princes can't have dragon bunting.
After Luo Batian finished shouting, he saw a guard flying out of the Golden Beamon Beast. This guard was wearing golden armor, in the sun, a piece of golden light, the other party's face was stern with a cold and arrogant look, and he said lightly: "City Lord Luo, Your Highness ordered, let you lead the way to Viscount Zhou's mansion." β
Quang Binh City is the seventh largest city in the world, with a population of more than 20 million, accounting for a huge amount.
If there is no familiar person to lead the way, it is really difficult to find a compound here as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack.
The other party's tone made Luo Batian frown, but thinking of the other party's identity, he had to say respectfully: "Yes." β
As the city lord of Guangping City, Luo Batian was naturally familiar with Guangping City, just by glancing at it, he determined his position, and then stepped on it in the void, the person had already slipped out hundreds of meters away, and with another stamping of his feet, he was already hundreds of meters away.
With Luo Batian leading the way, it was not until Luo Batian almost turned into a small black dot that the Golden Beamon Beast suddenly moved, but it had already crossed the sky and appeared behind Luo Batian.
Feeling the coercion brought by this golden beast on his body, Luo Batian was also surprised.
However, thinking that gold is rarer than the Mengmeng beast in the world, it is said that the strength of the Golden Week is not more than a top-level Venerable, and it will naturally not be difficult to catch up with Luo Batian in a light way.
Where the Zhou family is located, it is not too far from the City Lord's Mansion, just a moment, and it has already arrived.
Below.
The subordinates and guards of the Zhou family were also surprised when they saw this golden flying demonic beast unit, especially when they saw these flying demonic beasts hovering above the Zhou family. The Zhou family has experienced so many major events, although the guards were surprised, they were not afraid.
The subordinates only looked up for a moment, and they were busy with their respective duties.
Even the top Venerable was destroyed by his own family master, could it be said that there were still people looking for the Zhou family and killing themselves?
As Luo Batian approached, the guards were even more surprised, but they recognized Luo Batian. Let's not talk about Luo Batian's friendship with the head of the family, that is, the identity of the city lord of Luo Batian, how could they not know?
What's even more shocking is that the lord of Luo Batian City, but at this moment, he is actually acting as a leader?
"This"
It's shocking.
In the world, there are definitely not many people who can make the city lord Luo Batian so willing to lead the way, maybe except for the heads of the ten major families and the ten major sects, or His Majesty and the like, others are not qualified at all.
"Could it be that this is the one who has arrived?"
This golden beast is huge, in the Great Chu Dynasty, even if you haven't seen it, you will hear about it, how can it be unrecognizable?
Everyone knows that this golden beast is the emperor's palace, and only the emperor is qualified to use it.
I have long heard that the imperial court will promote the title of the head of the family, but it has been waiting for ten days, and there is no news. At this time, seeing this huge lineup of royal honor guards, and with Luo Batian leading the team, how could you not understand that this is the arrival of the Qin Cha?
"Quick, tell the head of the house. β
With such a presence of the guards, some people were assigned to inform Zhou Li, and some began to panic, and they didn't know how to greet the arrival of the minister.
"Whew"
Zhou Li exhaled a breath, then stood up, stretched his waist, only to feel that the bones seemed to sound lightly, and his strength increased by another point.
"It's not far from the middle stage of the third order of the Spirit Being. β
A smile appeared on his face, from the beginning of the battle with the Refining Weapon Sect, Zhou Li knew that this world would inevitably be surging because of his appearance. The most obvious change is that the imperial court updated the peerless powerhouse list for the first time.
Ranked first, although there is no material reward, but a duke title is enough to make people crazy.
However, Zhou Li did not attach much importance to the title.
The strong in this world are respected, what can you do if you have a title or not? As long as you can show your absolute strength, the honor will still be added to you.
And when you lose enough power, and you have these things that you can't grasp, it can be a disaster.
Just like Ruan Erjin is in the top 100 of the peerless powerhouses, but he died, the treatment of the imperial court was directly classified as rebellion and punished together with the Wang family. Thousands of children of the Wang family were directly killed under this rebellious butcher's knife.
So, knighthoods will only be useful while you're alive.
Once you die, what can you do, no matter how high you are?
However, Zhou Li would not refuse this benefit of the imperial court, after all, in the Great Chu Dynasty, if the authorities were jealous, the end would definitely be extremely miserable. The power in the hands of the royal family is said to be no less than that of the God of War Sect, and anyone who deals with it will be wiped out.
"The head of the house, the Chin sent here. β
One of the guards arrived in a hurry, with a look of joy on his face.
For them, the honor of the head of the family is their honor. The first place on the list of peerless powerhouses will be awarded the title of duke, and presumably the head of the family will be no exception. Anyway, no matter what rank it is, a duke can't run away, what a glorious thing it will be?
In the future, if you say it, you will be the guard of the Duke's Palace, and God knows how beautiful it will be?
In the entire Great Chu Dynasty, there are only dozens of dukes, and it has taken thousands of years to accumulate.
"Got it, you tell the hell to welcome the arrival of the Chin Cha. β
"Yes, Master"
The foundation of the Zhou family is indeed very weak, even if the guards are exhausted, except for Song Dahai, a venerable, the highest is the ninth-order level of the spirit master.
Therefore, it was supposed that His Holiness would have stepped into the air and welcomed the Qincha, but now he could only line up in the compound.
The eldest prince frowned, but the old butler next to him said beside him: "Your Highness, the Zhou family has almost no foundation, and there is only one Venerable Retainer. Moreover, what His Royal Highness needs is only Zhou Li, not the rest of the Zhou family. β
The potential meaning of the old housekeeper is already very clear, it is not that the Zhou family does not attach importance to His Royal Highness, but that the Zhou family does not have this kind of background at all.
"Let's go down, we can't let the Zhou family master wait for a long time. The eldest prince smiled and said suddenly.
Speaking of the identity of the great prince, the people who have passed him in the Great Chu Dynasty can be counted with a slap. But Zhou Li is the first person in the world to be a peerless powerhouse, but this identity is amazing, and it is not an exaggeration to call him the most powerful person in the Great Chu Dynasty.
The eldest prince took the initiative to go down, naturally wanting to express his goodwill, and also to show that he attached importance to Zhou Li.
I saw that the eldest prince just stepped out of the air and left the Golden Beamon Beast.
The old butler smiled slightly, his movements were also not slow, and he followed behind the eldest prince inch by inch.
More than a dozen guards, also activated, stepped out of the air, protecting the back of the eldest prince.
Who would have thought that the eldest prince would be a powerhouse at the Venerable level, and these dozen or so guards were also Venerable. Using the Venerable as a guard, in addition to the imperial court, only a few sects in this world can do it, and it is absolutely extravagant.
Zhou Li stood in the courtyard, looking at the middle-aged man in the golden dragon robe, the momentum and strength exuded by the other party were indeed amazing.
Luo Batian, who came down first, said next to Zhou Li's ear: "Master Zhou, this is the eldest prince. β
Zhou Li nodded, when the eldest prince was born, he had an advantage over other princes, as long as there was no demon-level prince, or any serious mistake, the next emperor was absolute. Seeing this golden beast now, it all means that this great prince has been approved by the emperor.
It's just that......
The lifespan of this world, ordinary people will have a hundred years old, the martial artist is one hundred and fifty, the qi is two hundred, the spirit is three hundred, and the venerable is four hundred
The emperor is in control of this huge country, what kind of treasures do you want? Some of the gifted ones have even become top Venerables.
If the previous emperor did not take the initiative to abdicate, and the prince wanted to obtain the throne, God knows how many hundred years later?
Just like now, the Great Chu Dynasty has been established for thousands of years, and it is only the eleventh emperor now.
On average, it will take four or five hundred years for one person to abdicate.
Moreover, this kind of abdication is just that they need to meditate and cultivate and have to hand over power, and it is not something serious.
In all kinds of situations, people will only hug the emperor's thighs, but not the thighs of the princes. In this special environment, it is impossible for the princes to pull up any forces, the only thing they can do is to cultivate desperately, and then they will stay up until their father abdicates.
As the eldest prince came down, Zhou Li just made a bow.
And Luo Batian was different from the other Zhou family guards, and directly knelt down: "I've seen the eldest prince." β
The peerless powerhouse will naturally have some privileges.
With a smile on his face, the eldest prince nodded and said, "Everyone, please get up." He looked at Zhou Li and said with a smile: "Geng Ning has seen the head of the Zhou family, and the head of the Zhou family doesn't need to be polite." After speaking, he stared at Zhou Li with straight eyes, wanting to look carefully.
The rumors outside are really too shocking, and all kinds of things about Zhou Li have almost deified Zhou Li.
It's just that seeing Zhou Li now, it's even more surprising, because Zhou Li is still younger than rumored.
Twenty-three years old, this kind of age, in the moving is hundreds of years old in the Great Chu Dynasty, it definitely belongs to the category of Mao has not yet ascended. However, this kind of Zhou Li is a record of an unprecedented person, and there may not be a record of comers in the future.
A twenty-three-year-old spirit, a twenty-three-year-old peerless powerhouse.
The former represents Zhou Li's fast cultivation, which can be called a real demon. The latter represents the strength to reach the pinnacle.
The old butler found a holy decree, stood next to the eldest prince, and lightly touched the eldest prince.
The eldest prince who thought of God reacted, and he said quietly: "The head of the Zhou family is really like a rumor, he didn't believe it before, but now he believes it. Compared with the rumors, the head of the Zhou family is younger and enviable. β
"The Great Prince is ridiculous. Zhou Li smiled lightly.
At this time, the Great Emperor took over the decree from the old butler's hand, but the smile on his face just now disappeared and was replaced by Yan SΓΉ: "Zhou Li listens to the decree." β
At this moment, Zhou Li, like everyone else, knelt down directly.
"Zhou Li's merits are accumulated, and they are verified by the Title House and the Central Council......"
Zhou Li's face was strange, it was the first time that he was directly facing the Holy Decree, but it was very different from the Holy Decree in those costume dramas on the earth. If it is like the ancient holy decree in China, it is really not something that ordinary people can understand.
"Crowned Duke of the Third Class. The voice of the eldest prince, with a kind of final word, ended the reading of the holy decree.
"Duke, and it's a third class. β
"If it's really a duke, it's just this third-class ......"
"Haha, it's unprecedented, it's a third-class duke. β
"In the past, the highest was only a fifth-class duke, but our family master was a third-class. β
Hearing the sound of the end of the eldest prince, the pot would have exploded below, if it weren't for the fear of colliding with Qincha, they would have been boiling. Even so, they whispered in their mouths, as if shocked by the news.
Yeluhai, who was the first peerless powerhouse in the last place, was only a fifth-class duke.
But now, Zhou Li is third-class.
Don't underestimate the gap between only two small levels, but these small two levels are like a heavenly slash, and how many people can't cross these two small levels in their lifetime.
The power of the third class is far from being comparable to that of the fifth class.
The first-class official crushes people to death, and the third-class duke can completely crush the fifth-class duke to death, and he will never be able to turn over.
Duke, is to be expected.
The third class, on the other hand, is unexpected.
"Thank you for your love, may your Majesty live long. Zhou Li did exactly what Luo Batian explained in advance, after all, Zhou Li really hadn't experienced this kind of thing. The last time the viscount came, it was a father-in-law who came, and he was not a minister.
The eldest prince smiled and said, "Okay, now this prince should be called Duke Zhou." β
Zhou Li took this holy decree, carefully folded it and handed it to Song Dahai next to him, and bowed again: "Thank you, the eldest prince." β
The eldest prince waved his hand, but the old butler took a tray from the hand of a guard and sent it to the eldest prince. The eldest prince took it and said, "The title is one, but the necessary reward must be there." β
After lifting the cloth towel on the tray, three rings quietly walked inside.
With just one glance, Zhou Li could confirm that these three were all superb Qiankun rings, and the storage space was definitely more than what he had now.
"There are 100,000 ninth-grade crystal nuclei, 50,000 tenth-grade crystal nuclei, 10,000 eleventh-grade crystal nuclei, and 1,000 twelfth-grade high-grade crystal nuclei. The eldest prince took one of them, flicked it lightly, and it was already floating and fell into Zhou Li's hand.
Zhou Li took it over, and the spiritual power was instilled, but he saw that there were mountains of crystal nuclei in this storage space, compared to the report of the eldest prince, it was only more and not less.
"There are 100 pieces of various pills of the ninth order, and 1,000 copies of spiritual weapon materials. β
The eldest prince handed the other two Qiankun rings to Zhou Li.
I remember that when he first saw this reward document, he was also very shocked, and once even he was a little red as the eldest prince, after all, this reward was too rich. This ninth-order pill alone is a hundred pills of all kinds, and it is something that cannot be saved even if you have money.
And a thousand copies of spiritual artifact materials are even more jaw-dropping, this is the real big deal.
The price of any spiritual weapon will be more than one million, how much is this thousand copies worth? I don't know how many big families have accumulated for thousands of years, and it can't compare to the father's reward to Zhou Li.
Zhou Li's mouth opened hugely, not to mention this crystal nucleus, which was enough for the Zhou family for ten years. And these hundred pills are too precious for Zhou Li, and they can definitely be used to save a life when it is critical. Finally, there is the material, and it is out of the imagination of Zhou Li.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. β
After receiving such benefits, Zhou Li was also very excited.
And the same is true of the Zhou family.
You must know that with the generosity of the head of the family, with such a large crystal nucleus, it is certain that in the future, their cultivation path will be much smoother and will go further.
A thousand spiritual weapon materials, which means that they will each have a spiritual weapon at that time?
If these pills were also in their hands, it would not be a problem to increase their strength tenfold when they were fighting, after all, this was a ninth-order pill.
The eldest prince handed over the three Qiankun rings to Zhou Li's hand, with a curious look on his face, and said: "Congratulations to Duke Zhou, but this prince heard that Duke Zhou can summon a giant dragon out of thin air, I don't know if I can let this prince open his eyes?"
Zhou Li did not hesitate, and said briskly: "Your Highness, you are very happy. β
Faced with this potential meaning of the eldest prince, Zhou Li's answer made the eldest prince have always been apprehensive and let go completely.
Almost as soon as the mind gave the command, the roar of the dragon was heard in the sky above the compound, and then stretched out its body more than 100 meters in the sky, flying undulating in the sky, alternating blue and white, and it was even more dazzling.
"Groaning ......"
The long dragon roar brought a biting chill.
