Volume 4 Shen Chong's Return Chapter 272 Becoming a Cabinet Secretary
There are only 7 cabinet directors in the entire Illusion Technology Pavilion, but today, two people have been newly promoted to cabinet directors at one time. Such a rarity is rare.
Today's battle can definitely be recorded in the memorabilia of the Illusion Pavilion, and it will also become something that every cabinet guard present is worth mentioning and showing off.
There were also many people who stepped forward and took the initiative to greet Cliff and Shen Chong and say hello to them.
Shen Chong and Cliff both responded with a smile one by one.
"Shen Chong, you are lucky this time. A voice rang out.
Shen Chong turned his head to look, but saw that the cliff was looking at him with a smile, and when he saw Shen Chong, he deliberately blinked.
Shen Chong nodded politely in response to a pavilion guard who came to congratulate, and then replied: "Thank you Brother Cliff for your advice, it is indeed luck that the junior brother was injured so lightly this time." However, next time I will be careful and get rid of this arrogant problem. ”
"Hmph~~ I'm looking forward to it. Cliff sneered, and turned to talk to one of the courtiers.
At this time, Lu Xiao jumped down from the stands and grabbed Shen Chong's arm: "Shen Chong! You are really powerful, even more powerful than my sister said, now that you are the cabinet secretary, I will go back to the palace soon, you can go with me to see my sister." ”
Shen Chong rushed to the 'Yanxin Realm' in order to see Xiang'er, with Lu Ya leading the way, he could directly meet Xiang'er in the palace, such a good opportunity, Shen Chong naturally would not refuse.
"Come on! Let's go. After briefly talking to Qiu Ming and the others, Lu Ya took Shen Chong out of the competition arena with great interest, and after getting into a luxurious carriage, Lu Ya and Shen Chong galloped towards the teleportation array under the escort of the Praetorian Guards.
Through the teleportation array, you will come to the 401 plate exclusive to the royal family. Lu Ya's carriage traveled almost all the way unimpeded, and drove straight into the imperial city and into the inner palace.
In just half an hour, Shen Chong came from the martial arts arena of the Illusion Pavilion to the inner courtyard of the palace.
Lu Ya sent someone to inform his sister Lu Xiang'er in advance, and led Shen Chong and them to the inner palace.
This palace of the Lu royal family. It's huge. Almost the entire No. 401 plate is within the scope of the imperial city, in addition to the towering and majestic palace buildings, there are more strange plants and magical monsters.
The plate where the Phantom Technology Pavilion is located is very desolate, and the plate where the Imperial City is located can be seen everywhere with exquisite gardens, lakes and rivers.
However, Shen Chong didn't have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way.
Because. The little prince Lu Ya, as soon as he came out of the Illusion Technology Pavilion, kept pestering him, asking him to tell him interesting stories from the other world, as well as the process of Shen Chong saving Xiang'er at the beginning.
Shen Chong had only been in contact with Lu Ya for such a short time, and he had already discovered that Xiang'er's younger brother, although he was a prince, was very keen on adventure. Longing for the vast and endless world outside.
Shen Chong understood Lu Ya's mood very well.
However, this Lu Ya is simply a hundred thousand whys.
For example, Shen Chong said. I and Xiang'er, by chance, went from the 'New Life Realm' to the 'Yellow Spring Realm'. Lu Ya would ask, is the 'Crossing Illusionist' who sent you there powerful? What is his strength? What is the spatial wormhole like? What is the feeling when passing through the wormhole? What is the difference between the 'New Realm' and the 'Yellow Spring Realm'? Will the cultivator not adapt to the soil and water when he goes from one mortal realm space to another?
Just when Shen Chong was overwhelmed.
A beautiful figure hurried from a distance towards them.
"Xiang'er!" Shen Chong's eyes lit up, and he immediately left Lu Ya, who was still asking questions, and flew up to meet him.
"Brother Shen Chong!" the moment he saw Shen Chong. Xiang'er's tears fell.
Xiang'er threw herself into Shen Chong's arms, and cried with excitement.
Feeling the girl in his arms, Shen Chong checked it, and then he was sure that Xiang'er was indeed safe and sound.
I experienced some danger at the beginning. came to the Huangquan realm, Shen Chong and Lu Xianger, because of their like-minded interests, became brothers and sisters with different surnames. However, the two come from different mortal realms, and both long to return to their hometowns.
After nearly four years of separation, it is even more difficult to meet again today.
The two hugged tightly and revealed their true feelings.
Looking at the reunion of her sister Xiang'er and Shen Chong, even the active Lu Ya quieted down, with tears in her eyes, while Xilin and Ren Yi stood quietly. The surrounding Praetorian Guards also felt the same way, thinking of their relatives and contacting some of their past experiences, and many of these steely men had moist eyes.
After Xiang'er cried for a while, Shen Chong patted her shoulder and said softly: "Okay, Xiang'er is good, don't cry, it's okay." ”
"Hmm. Xiang'er nodded vigorously, her big eyes had cried into two peaches, and her little nose was red.
"Brother Shen Chong, I didn't expect you to really come over, the passage to the other world is already difficult to find, even if you find it, this road will be full of dangers, I am afraid to think about it......"
"Okay, it's okay, you see, I'm not standing in front of you?"
Shen Chong has also been comforting this crying sister.
"Sister!Shen Chong!Let's go to my house and talk again!" Lu Ya said at this time.
Xiang'er shook her head: "Xiao'er, I have something to tell Brother Shen Chong alone, you can go back to the mansion first, and when it's later, I will take Brother Shen Chong to find you." ”
Where did Lu Ya agree, and immediately protested: "Sister, you recognize Shen Chong as the eldest brother, then Shen Chong is naturally also my eldest brother, what secrets are there between the family? Can't I listen to it?"
Xiang'er deliberately pulled her face: "If you insist on making trouble, be careful that I shake out the incident of your last invasion of the forbidden land." ”
Lu Ya's eyes widened in fright, and the whole person jumped up: "Good sister, don't say it, I won't bother you." ”
"This is good~~" Xiang'er smiled slightly, took Shen Chong's hand, and walked in the direction of her mansion.
Xiang'er, the elder sister, naturally knows about her younger brother's pestering skills, and she has some things to talk to Shen Chong, and it is inconvenient for Lu Ya's big mouth to hear it.
After sending Lu Ya away, Xiang'er led Shen Chong, Ren Yi and Xilin back to their mansion.
Xilin was arranged to rest in a special wing, and all the Praetorian Guards, maids, etc., also avoided it.
At this time, in the hall, only Xiang'er, Shen Chong and Ren Yi were left.
Xiang'er looked at Ren Yi carefully, and then patted Shen Chong's shoulder with a smile: "Brother Shen Chong, congratulations on finding true love." ”
Shen Chong shook his head with a smile and said, "Ren Yi is my partner, but it's not what Xiang'er thinks." ”
Xiang'er had a clear look.
Shen Chong was helpless, knowing that some things were getting darker and darker, so it was better not to say it.
After the three of them sat down together, Shen Chong said with a straight face: "Xiang'er, what happened to you here, why did you even break the soul bead I gave you." ”
Xiang'er looked guilty at this time: "I'm sorry Brother Shen Chong, I was also too panicked when I got the news, so I made this reckless decision in a hurry." ”
"What's the news?" Shen Chong was curious in his heart, Xiang'er was a princess, and there should be nothing to make her upset or even worried in the 'Rock Heart Realm', and finally used the method of crushing the soul bead to inform herself.
"Brother Shen Chong, things are actually like this......"
Xiang'er slowly began to speak, and as she spoke, Shen Chong finally understood the reason.
It turned out that Meng Cang was ordered by Lu Qintian, the only emperor of 'Diyan Xing', to go to the 'Huangquan Realm' to pick up his daughter Xiang'er.
Lu Qintian was very fond of Xiang'er's daughter, and after taking Xiang'er back, he learned that Xiang'er had encountered such danger in the 'New World', and even the brothers Meng Cheng and Meng Heng sacrificed their lives to protect the master, and finally fell.
Lu Qintian was furious, because the safety of his relatives was threatened, and he felt that his majesty had been provoked, he directly ordered Lu Xiang'er to be grounded, and issued an order to send a large army to attack the cultivators of the 'New Realm'.
He wanted to wash the cultivation realm of the 'Taoyuan Star' in blood to calm his anger.
Although Xiang'er repeatedly cried and begged to stop him, his father didn't listen at all.
As the Supreme of the First Realm, Lu Qintian would never take it back if he said it.
However, if you want to send troops to attack another mortal space, you still need to make some preparations, and you can't send troops out in a while. Moreover, in recent years, the people of the 'Wasteland Realm' have frequently attacked, making the 'Core Realm' temporarily unable to be distracted. Therefore, the attack on the 'new realm' has been delayed until now.
However, half a year ago, Xiang'er heard that her father had actually returned to meet with the overlord of the 'Wasteland Realm' to negotiate the matter of stopping the two realms from attacking each other.
Xiang'er was very scared, afraid that once their 'Core Realm' and the 'Wasteland Realm' really reached an agreement on a truce, then the 'Core Realm' would be able to spare their energy to attack the 'New Realm'. A battle of this scale is likely to affect Shen Chong's family or division, so she wants to ask Meng Cang to go to the 'New Life Realm' or 'Huangquan Realm' to remind Shen Chong, so that Shen Chong can hide with his family and fellow disciples in advance.
However, Meng Cang couldn't follow Lu Xiang'er's orders because he had been specially explained by Lu Qintian.
Xiang'er was in a hurry, so she could only crush the soul bead and notify Shen Chong through this method.
After hearing this, Shen Chong's brows furrowed tightly: "Xiang'er, your father really wants to send troops to attack our 'New Life Realm'? I don't know if the truce agreement between the 'Wasteland Realm' and your 'Rock Core Realm' has been reached, at least on my way to the inner layer, there are still cultivators in the 'Wasteland Realm' who are constantly harassing the people of your 'Rock Core Realm'. ”
Xiang'er nodded: "I also know about this." However, in the past, it was the cultivator army of the 'Wasteland Realm' who came to harass them in an organized manner. Now, I don't know if these harassers are the army of cultivators, or some stragglers who came on their own......"
At this time, suddenly a Praetorian Guard broke in and reported directly: "Princess Xiang'er, His Majesty the Emperor has an order to summon Shen Chong immediately." ”
"What!?" Shen Chong and Lu Xiang'er both stood up in surprise.
"How did my father know about the fact that you came to the 'Rock Heart Realm', eldest brother?" Hearing the news, Xiang'er was a little panicked.
Shen Chong said with relief: "Xiang'er, don't be afraid, I saved your life, I don't think your father will do anything to me." ”
Xiang'er nodded: "Okay, Brother Shen Chong, then I'll accompany you." ”
The Praetorian Guard said directly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, Your Majesty has personally explained that he only summoned Shen Chong alone, you don't have to go with you." (To be continued.) )
