Chapter 262: The God King with a Different Surname
Suzaku Heavenly General is one of the eighteen heavenly generals of the Kyushu Dynasty, and his strength is enough to rank among the top three among the eighteen heavenly generals.
And Lu Xuhong, as the eldest son of the Vermilion Bird General, is the future heir of the Vermilion Bird General, and his words and deeds represent the will of the Vermilion Bird Heavenly General's Mansion, and his actions are obviously to win over Ye Chen.
Lu Xuhong's cultivation is extremely high, even if he has gathered the aura of his whole body into the dantian, he can still feel the powerful power in his eyes.
Lu Xuhong, Ye Chen had seen this name on the top of the Hundred Pagoda List, ranking eighteenth.
There are countless Tianjiao in the Ten Thousand Souls Tower, and being able to stand out among so many Tianjiao and rush to the eighteenth place is enough to prove how strong Lu Xuhong's combat power is.
As the eldest son of the Vermilion Bird General, he has shown favor to Ye Chen many times, and he even gave Ye Chen a precious healing pill before, the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, Ye Chen naturally did not refuse his kindness, looking at the wine glass he handed over, he did not shirk, took it directly, and drank it all.
"Congratulations to Brother Ye, the Divine King of the Dynasty is a well-deserved super powerhouse, and he has accepted two disciples in his life, you and the Lord of the Martial Tower, maybe Brother Ye will have a chance to inherit the title of the Divine King in the future." The prince of the Zuntian Kingdom also walked over, wearing a golden crown on his head, wearing a gorgeous robe, and also holding a wine glass in his hand, and came over to toast Ye Chen.
The prince of the Zuntian Kingdom gave him a Xuanxue Heavenly Lotus in the martial arts arena before, so he naturally wanted to befriend Ye Chen.
"The prince laughed, the title of master will naturally be inherited by his heirs in the future, how can it be my turn to be an outsider?" Ye Chen said with a slow smile.
The prince of the god king is not a simple title, it is unique in the Kyushu Dynasty, and it has great power, if the emperor is mediocre, he can enter the ancestral land of the royal family and invite the strong man of the imperial family to clear the side of the monarch and punish the monarch.
And the power of the God King is not small, among the eighteen heavenly generals, there are three major heavenly generals who are directly under the orders of the God King Mansion, and they have a large number of troops in their hands, and these three heavenly generals have no power to mobilize even the emperor lord, and this force is the power that can really shock the world.
This is also the reason why the prime minister regards the God King as a big problem, and wants to take advantage of this opportunity to weaken the power of the God King, and even take this opportunity to completely eradicate the God King.
Lu Xuhong stood beside Ye Chen and said in a low voice, "Brother Ye, doesn't you know that Lord God King has never married in his life and has no heirs under his knees?"
After Ye Chen heard this, he was slightly stunned, and was silent for a moment before he continued to smile: "Even if the master has no heirs under his knees, his title should be chosen among the children and disciples of the royal family, and it will not be my turn to be a person with a foreign surname."
The power in the hands of the god king is too great, if there is an emperor who is mediocre, he has the right to abolish it, and then choose a Ming Jun from the new royal family, and the god king is the patron saint of the royal family, and it is also a hole card of the royal family, and it is enough to mobilize the general royal power with the god king's order.
With such a large power, it is absolutely impossible for the royal family to entrust it to a person with a foreign surname who has no blood relationship.
At least that's what Ye Chen thinks.
Lu Xuhong shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, the identity of the god king is somewhat special, each god king is selected by the previous god king, and then the selected person will be sent to the ancestral land of the royal family, as long as the chosen person can pass the test of the sages of the royal family, even if he has a different surname, he can inherit the title of the god king."
"Yes, in history, the god king of the Kyushu Dynasty had two god kings with different surnames, and at that time, it was because the god king had no queen, so the god king at that time selected the most outstanding disciple among the disciples he sat down and inherited his title." The prince of the Zuntian Dynasty sat on the other side of Ye Chen and spoke quietly.
Although this is not a secret matter, but after all, this still involves the affairs of the Kyushu royal family, even they pay attention to their remarks and dare not discuss too blatantly.
"It is not without precedent for a different surname to be crowned a king, but if the god king of this generation is a king with a different surname, then the next god king must be selected among the royal family, so as to ensure that the title of the god king is always grasped by the emperor
in the hands of the clan." Lu Xuhong said with a smile.
Ye Chen's fingers played with the wine glass, his face expressionless, and he fell into deep thought.
"Now that there is no queen of the god king, the only disciples who sit down and pass on the disciples are you and the Lord of the Wu Pagoda, and the Lord of the Wu Tower does not seem to want to be the God King, so if the next God King wants to choose a king with a different surname, Brother Ye must be the best choice." Lu Xuhong raised his glass and saluted again.
"Yes, the two of us also heard that Brother Ye was coming here for a banquet, so we accepted the invitation of the host here, if it was in normal times, we would not have attended such a banquet at all." The prince of the Zuntian Kingdom is also very strong in cultivation, ranking in the top 20 above the Hundred Pagoda List, and he is a genius who is against the sky.
In fact, it was not only them who regarded Ye Chen as the successor of the God King, but many people present agreed with them and regarded Ye Chen as the next God King, so before the banquet began, several Tianjiao from the large immortal sect came over to toast one after another.
Ye Chen didn't refuse, everyone who came to toast drank with a smile, and talked happily with these Tianjiao.
"Hmph, what's there to be proud of, it's just a monk who has just broken through to the realm of transforming gods, and such garbage is grabbing a handful of them in the Ten Thousand Souls Pagoda." At this moment, a very discordant voice rang out in the crowd.
Although he didn't name Ye Chen, many people present heard what he meant.
"It's just a monk from a poor country, relying on good luck to think that his talent is unparalleled, if my luck is better, I can also break into the ninth layer of the Ascending Immortal Tower, what is there to be proud of?"
After hearing this, the people present immediately felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and they flashed to the side very consciously, not daring to come forward at this time.
In an instant, the entire Tianjiao Mansion fell silent.
Ye Chen naturally heard this discordant voice, but his face did not change at all, the corners of his mouth smiled, and after drinking a glass of wine, he looked in the direction where the voice came from.
I saw that in a seat not far away, there were two gorgeously dressed monks sitting opposite each other, and one of them was Chu Daoling, who was placed on the seventh floor.
He and the other teenager were followed by several old men, all of whom were very strong in cultivation, and they were all strong men of the older generation.
Chu Daoling and another man sat down and drank together, with a faint smile on their faces, and they talked happily.
Chu Daoling continued as if no one was around: "I heard that the emperor has issued a decree and sent three heavenly generals to lead a Kyushu heavenly army to the Eastern Regions, which is bound to wipe out all the female corpse troops in the Eastern Regions, and restore peace in the Eastern Regions, I don't know if this female corpse lackey is among the ranks that have been eliminated?"
Chu Daoling's words are all said for this part, and the people present are not stupid, so they naturally know that he is deliberately provoking, and everyone also knows who he is provoking.
Lu Xuhong frowned slightly, his eyes sank, he suddenly stood up, and was about to rush over to teach Chu Daoling a lesson, but before he could get out of his seat, he was directly pulled by Ye Chen and pressed him back into the seat.
"Brother Ye, his words are really excessive, is it possible that we are still afraid of him?" Lu Xuhong said angrily.
He really wanted to befriend Ye Chen, so he felt very angry for Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled slowly and said, "Why should Brother Lu be angry? Could it be that the dog bites you, and you still have to bite the dog back?"
"You.... Ye Chen, who are you scolding for being a dog?" Chu Daoling's face sank, his eyes seemed to be quenched with poison, and he glared at Ye Chen.
"Oh? Why is Brother Chu here, it's really disrespectful and disrespectful, I was scolding the dog just now, what is Brother Chu so excited about, is it possible that Brother Chu treats himself as a beast?" Ye Chen said in a strange way.
After hearing Ye Chen's words, Chu Daoling's face sank with a brush.
The man sitting opposite Chu Daoling tilted his head slightly and stared at Ye Chen.
His eyes were a little demonic, and his pupils were not black for normal people, but glowing with a purple-red light
It contained a very strong cold air, and with just one look, it directly froze all the wine in the wine glass in Ye Chen's hand into ice cubes, exuding bursts of cold air.
With a glance, he could freeze the wine in his hand into ice cubes in the air, and this method made Ye Chen's heart couldn't help but look at the man with some surprise.
But the man in the fine costume had already turned his head, as if what he had just done was not what he was talking about, and continued to drink to himself.
Chu Daoling's emotions at this time also calmed down, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and then he sneered and said, "Brother Ye has been able to break into the ninth layer of the Dengxian Pagoda in the early stage of the Transformation Divine Realm, which really makes Chu admire, and I don't know how much strength Brother Ye can rely on to go to bed to the ninth layer?"
The implication of Chu Daoling's words was already very clear, and every word was sarcastic about Ye Chen's ability to ascend to the ninth layer by not relying on his own ability.
Although it is true that Ye Chen did not rely on his own ability to ascend to the ninth layer, a large part of the reason why he was able to ascend the ninth layer was because of good luck.
But luck is actually part of strength, otherwise how could there be so many people who pay attention to the right time, place and people?
Isn't it a person's luck that the time and place are favorable?
Chu Daoling had already broken into the Immortal Pagoda five times, but each time he was defeated at the seventh layer, and Ye Chen was able to ascend to the ninth layer once, how could he not be jealous?
