Chapter Ninety-Seven: Meeting Emperor Xiao

A team from Sark City to investigate the demons finally returned, they didn't meet the demons along the way, but their caution was right, in fact, the demon team that came to arrest people was not too far away from them, maybe it was good luck, the two teams just passed by.

Hearing that traces of the demons had been discovered, Lord Sark personally received the team.

The captain of this Venerable Realm is named Yang Guang.

"Yang Guang, you are very good, tell me about the situation. "Lord Sark praised him and listened to his report.

"Yes, lord. Yang Guang calmed down his emotions and told the story of the matter.

After listening to Yang Guang's report, Lord Sark was silent for a long time, didn't say anything, just waved his hand to let Yang Guang and them retreat, and he turned around and entered the house.

This made Yang Guang and the team members very puzzled. But the thoughts of the big guys are not something they can figure out. So they withdrew.

"What are you going to do!" Just as Yang Guang and the others withdrew, a voice sounded behind Lord Sark.

"These demons deceive people too much, but I don't necessarily fear them. Make an appointment with the demons for me, and I'm going to talk to them. "If Yang Guang and the others were standing here at this moment, they would definitely be very surprised to hear Lord Sark's words. Looking at this appearance, Lord Sark had already known the news of the existence of the demons.

Just when Sark City was locked down, Xiao Che and the others were already preparing to enter the palace.

"Xiao Che, Your Majesty has a will, you will meet alone tomorrow. "The messenger who came to herald the order came to Dongfang Ye's mansion to convey the will of Xiao Gan, the emperor of the Qingxuan Empire.

After receiving this will, Dongfang Ye suddenly frowned, originally their brothers thought that they could accompany Xiao Che to meet together, but they didn't expect that Emperor Xiao would only see Xiao Che alone, which made them a little worried.

"Brothers, don't worry, for safety, let's go to the blacksmith's shop. Xiao Che didn't know what Emperor Xiao meant, but for safety reasons, it was better for the brothers to temporarily go to the blacksmith shop to take refuge, so that even if the worst result occurred, they could deal with it calmly.

The brothers listened to Xiao Che's words and did not object. Originally, everyone didn't want Xiao Che to go alone, so there was no safety guarantee. The most important thing is that they don't know Xiao Huang's true attitude towards Xiao Che at all.

They speculated that Emperor Xiao met with Xiao Che this time because of the affairs of the Xuanfu.

But it wasn't as they thought.

The next day, Xiao Che went to the palace alone.

"Hey, what are you doing, this is a royal forbidden place, no one is allowed to stay here, let's go. When the guards saw Xiao Che marching towards the palace alone, they stopped him.

"Brother Guard, I am Xiao Che, who received His Majesty's order and came to meet you. Xiao Che smiled.

"Oh, you say you're Xiao Che? "The guards seem to know about Xiao Che's visit. However, he had to determine Xiao Che's identity.

"This was given to me by someone from the palace yesterday. As he spoke, Xiao Che took out an object from his arms and handed it to the guard.

"Well, yes, okay, let's go in. The guard checked it, and sure enough, it was a token in the palace, so Xiao Che was let in.

The palace gate is heavy, and it is only the imperial city that has just entered, not the imperial palace. Soon Xiao Che came to the gate of the palace.

There are already people waiting here.

The person who came was the official who conveyed the message yesterday.

The two didn't say anything all the way, and Xiao Che knew the rules in the palace, which made him a little uncomfortable. After all, he has been an uninhibited person since he was a child. Now he is coldly allowing himself to do these rituals, which makes him very uncomfortable.

However, he did not have any dissatisfaction, but endured it, after all, he came here today to see Emperor Xiao. Although he didn't understand why, in his guess it was related to Qing Xuance.

Although the road to the palace was long, it soon came to an end. Now in front of Xiao Che was an antique main hall, which was very inconsistent with the golden and brilliant appearance he imagined. On the contrary, he was a little stunned when he saw it for the first time.

It wasn't until the officials in front of him urged him that he came back to his senses.

There are ninety-nine steps leading to the main hall, symbolizing the longevity of the Qingxuan Empire and the majesty of the royal family.

The pillars that support the main hall are all dragon-shaped patterns, and the image is naturally the body of the dragon man Qingxuan.

Although the dragon man Qingxuan is said to be a half-dragon and half-human bloodline. But in fact, he looks exactly the same as the dragon, after all, the dragon's genes are much stronger than the human race.

It stands to reason that there is a reproductive gap between different races like this. Generally speaking, different races are not capable of producing offspring. But the appearance of the dragon man Qingxuan broke this rule. It is also because of the existence of the dragon man Qingxuan that to a certain extent, it has promoted the hardcore alliance of the human race and the demon beast race.

When Xiao Che saw the ontological pattern of the dragon man Qingxuan, he didn't know why he always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity and intimacy. And what he could be very sure of was that this was the first time he had seen the pattern of the dragonman's Qingxuan body.

Without thinking too much, Xiao Che entered the main hall under the leadership of the officials.

At this time, the main hall was not as many ministers as Xiao Che imagined, the entire hall was empty, only Xiao Che himself. The official who led the way, brought Xiao Che here and left. didn't explain anything to Xiao Che, so he let Xiao Che enter the hall.

After Xiao Che entered, he didn't find anyone, not even the palace maid. This made him a little apprehensive. After all, it was too insecure for him.

And didn't wait long. Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in front of me. A resolute, masculine face came into Xiao Che's eyes. The appearance of this person was quite strange, even Xiao Che, a person who had comprehended a fairly strong spatial element through the Traceless Realm Body Method, did not see clearly when the man came, as if he was there in the first place.

The person in front of him looked quite young, only in his thirties, but that looming majesty made Xiao Che really feel it.

Not only that, but there is also an indescribable strange aura that envelops this person. There was no need to think that Xiao Che knew who was coming, so he immediately bowed down.

"Xiao Che, see Your Majesty. Saying that, Xiao Che bowed to this seemingly young person.

"No courtesy. Xiao Che, do you know why this emperor saw you today?" Xiao Qian said loudly, his voice was very good, making people sound like a spring breeze. However, Xiao Che knew that this Xiao Huang was a masterpiece. Even among the emperors of the Qingxuan Empire, Xiao Qian is a very accomplished emperor.

Therefore, Xiao Che naturally did not have any disrespect for him. So he responded with respect:

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know. Saying that, Xiao Che saluted the emperor with a standard military salute.

Xiao Che was definitely smart to answer like this, although he didn't know the purpose of Emperor Xiao calling him here, but Xiao Che himself set himself as a soldier of the Qingxuan Empire, so as a soldier of the Qingxuan Empire, he was naturally Xiao Gan's vassal.

"Xiao Che, there are three things I called you here today, the first thing is to apologize to you, I didn't mean to want you before, and I don't know anything about that matter. The first thing Xiao Qian said was that Xiao Che was stunned.

He never thought that when he won the title of the God of Hundred Battles, he was hunted down by the royal family, and he always thought that this was Emperor Xiao's order. But today he actually heard Xiao Qian say to him in person, not what he meant.

This makes Xiao Che have the urge to scold, that is, Xiao Che is well-cultivated, and he can't scold on the current occasion. However, he was also judging in his heart the truth of Xiao Qian's words. However, after thinking about it, Xiao Che did not come up with a reason for Xiao Qian to deceive himself. That said, it's very likely that this statement is true.

"Your Majesty, what is going on with this matter?" Xiao Che also asked subconsciously, but as soon as the words came out, he regretted it a little. After all, if Xiao Qian wanted to tell him, he naturally didn't need to ask. He glanced at Xiao Qian and found that Xiao Qian didn't mean to blame him, which made Xiao Che also breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, the person in front of him was the emperor of the Qingxuan Empire who controlled the fate of countless people. 88

"I'll tell you everything about it in a moment. The second thing is that I hope that you and your Xuan army can become the forces of the Qingxuan Empire. Even if it's just a name. After Xiao Qian finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Che meaningfully.

This also surprised Xiao Che. He never thought that Xiao Qian would say this to him.

"Your Majesty, in order to fight against the next demon invasion, the minister and his brothers have changed the Xuanjun to the Xuanfu. The minister has always been a subject of the Qingxuan Empire, and in this war, the Xuanfu was unable to serve His Majesty because of the major changes it had undergone before. However, if there is a need in the future, His Majesty will give an order, and he will not dare to disobey. Xiao Che informed Xiao Qian of the name change of Xuanjun. And he didn't say it to death. Rather, there is leeway.

Hearing Xiao Che's answer, Xiao Qian didn't know what he meant, and secretly said "cunning", which was a smile.

"Good, that's good. The third thing is that I really hope that you can be the general of the Qingxuan Empire. What do you think?" Although Xiao Qian's tone of voice seemed to ask Xiao Che, Xiao Che could clearly feel that there was an undoubted resoluteness in his words.

Although Xiao Che didn't understand why, he quickly agreed. After all, if he really became the general of the Qingxuan Empire, he would have a legitimate identity. Everything will go smoothly. However, Xiao Che also understood that Xiao Qian definitely had a reason why he didn't know that he wanted to be this general. Although he doesn't know why this is now.

And Xiao Che is a smart person, so he can naturally hear the resolute attitude in Xiao Qian's words.

Seeing Xiao Che agreeing so happily, Xiao Qian's face also softened. Soon Xiao Qian explained to Xiao Che that he was wanted in the first place.

"Xiao Che, when you won the title of God of Hundred Battles, I was still in retreat, and at that time, it was the royal brother Xiao Kun and those who were dissatisfied with you. At that time, it was regent by Xiao Kun, the younger brother of the king, and when he saw that you won the title of God of Fighting, he naturally had some thoughts in his heart. After all, it was an honor that only Ancestor Xiao Xuan had ever received. Xiao Qian's explanation surprised Xiao Che even more.

Xiao Che now felt that his head was running out of steam. He had always thought that he was quite wise, but today, in the conversation with Xiao Qian, he was about to go crazy. Didn't you say that Xiao Qian, Xiao Kun had a very good relationship? But what did Xiao Qian do when he said this to himself just now? Isn't this hating Xiao Kun?

Today is the first time Xiao Qian and Xiao Che have met. Could it be that Xiao Qian thinks that Xiao Che is very generous and doesn't care about this matter at all? Obviously, this will not be the case. And as a very promising emperor. Xiao Qian naturally wouldn't do such a stupid thing. Then that is to say. The relationship between him and Xiao Kun is not as good as it is rumored in the outside world.

Thinking like this, Xiao Che suddenly felt a cold sweat.

"Xiao Che, what I said to you today is absolutely confidential, and you are not allowed to spread a word, not even your brothers and sisters. Seeing that Xiao Che suddenly became nervous, Xiao Qian naturally knew that Xiao Che had already understood his words. Although Xiao Qian's tone was very calm when he said something, he even had the meaning of reminding. However, in Xiao Che's ears, it became a warning.

Of course, Xiao Che knew that if his words with Xiao Qian were leaked today, then it would not only be himself who would suffer, but those brothers would be affected, and even the family behind them.

Now Xiao Che can only think of one sentence, and it is really a companion like a tiger.

He even regretted coming here a little now. But he knew that all regrets would be in vain. Now that he has come, it is impossible for him to stay out of it.

And Xiao Kun is also his own goal. Since Xiao Qian wants to use himself to deal with Xiao Kun. That Xiao Che can also use Xiao Qian's power. Although this is like walking a tightrope, it can only be taken one step at a time.

From this moment on, Xiao Che's mentality completely changed. He's ready to leave himself behind.

Xiao Che has never been a person who pins his hopes on others. Xiao Che knows very well that no matter how high the status Xiao Qian gives him, let alone make him a general of the empire, even if he is made a prince, once Xiao Che has no use value, all this will be easily taken back by Xiao Gan.

After all, what can be given to you will definitely be able to be taken back.

Xiao Che never thought that he could make a difference in his career, that is, he could see the essence of all this.

But now that he can't escape this matter, all he can do is face it. Moreover, with the identity of a general, it is convenient for him to strengthen the power of the Xuanfu and make the Xuanfu hidden deeper.

Xiao Che has always known that in this world, everything can only be relied on by himself, and only what he really obtains with his own ability can no one take away.

For Xiao Che, it is his own cultivation and Xuanfu.

The reason why he cares so much about Xuanfu is not because he has any desire for power, but more because he hopes that he and his brothers will have a free place. And his brothers need Xuanfu more than he does.

Xiao Che himself knows very well that as long as he has been cultivating "God Devouring Decision", he will be able to reach the pinnacle of this world one day. He knew this very well, if he only cared about himself, then he could just find a place where no one could find it and concentrate on cultivation. But now, he couldn't have chosen that way. In this world, he already has people who are difficult to let go.

After saying these three things, Xiao Qian did not let Xiao Che continue to stay in the palace. Xiao Che soon left.

When he left, Xiao Che's state of mind was very different from when he came.

Xiao Qian not only restored Xiao Che's reputation, but also gave him the title of general. Nominally he was able to lead an army of 100,000. However, Xiao Che knew very well in his heart that this was completely false. Don't say whether you will really lead the army, even if you will, I'm afraid that I will send myself a deputy general who really controls the army. This general is just a title, in order to give him more leverage when fighting with Xiao Kun.

However, it is still difficult for Xiao Che. Who is Xiao Kun? That is the most powerful prince of the Qingxuan Empire other than Xiao Qian. Although Xiao Kun behaved perversely, it could even be said to be ridiculous. However, Xiao Che has never underestimated this prince.

Looking at Xiao Gan's actions now, Xiao Che knows even more that this Xiao Kun is not simple at all. can make such a capable emperor treat it so cautiously, which shows the real horror of Xiao Kun.

Thinking like this, Xiao Che felt sad for the two brothers in his heart. They are brothers, and they will all calculate so far. And he and Dongfang Ye and their brothers can trust each other with their lives.

Sure enough, it is the most ruthless imperial family.

Xiao Che walked out of the imperial city all the way quickly, and at this time, Dongfang Ye and the others were already waiting outside the palace gate. Seeing them, Xiao Che couldn't even react. Immediately, my heart was moved.

Xiao Che knew that when these people came here to wait for him, they would have taken their lives. Because no one knows what Xiao Qian's attitude towards Xiao Che will be.

Dongfang Ye and the others were also relieved to see Xiao Che walking out of the imperial city smoothly. They are very worried.

Zhou Xiaodie walked over and took Xiao Che's hand, looked at Xiao Che's eyes, and didn't say anything, but Xiao Che had completely read her heart.

"Brothers, let's go back first. At this time, Xiao Che's heart was warm.

Xiao Che and they would never have thought that Xiao Qian was looking at them not far away at this time, and his eyes were indescribably profound.

"Your Majesty, don't you leave them all behind?" a voice came from nowhere. Only Xiao Qian could hear it.

"No, I don't. They are of some use to me. Xiao Qian replied calmly.

No one knew what was going on in his heart.

"You're here. Suddenly, Xiao Qian seemed to sense something, as if he was talking to himself.

"Let's talk. A voice did answer him.

If Xiao Che heard it, he would definitely be able to hear that the owner of this voice, his master, Qing Xuance.

When Xiao Che and his brothers returned to the Dongfang Mansion, the brothers gathered in the spacious living room.

"Xiao Che, tell me quickly, what did the emperor say to you. Wu Xiong first said to Annai. But looking at the eyes of the brothers, they also know that this is also what they want to say.

"The emperor said three things, the first thing is to restore my reputation, the second thing is to make our Xuanfu nominally belong to the Qingxuan Empire, and the third thing is to make me a general of the same level as Brother Dongfang. Xiao Che naturally knew what they were thinking.

But he also answered truthfully, and he didn't say a word about what he couldn't say.

"Eh, that's the end, isn't it, it's that simple?" Xiao Che finished speaking, and the brothers were very puzzled.
