Chapter Seventy-Two: Reward
Wu Houde sat on a rattan chair in the garden, holding a teacup, sipping tea with a serene expression, and his eyebrows were extremely comfortable.
I don't know if it has anything to do with Chen Feng's visit last time, the news that Wu Aotian has become a spiritual cultivator quickly spread throughout Songyun City, and the martial family has once again become the object of everyone's attention, and the number of people visiting the martial family seems to have increased.
Although these people visit the martial arts, there is nothing practical, they are all greetings, but everyone knows that these people are on good terms with the martial family, Wu Aotian has changed from a waste person to a spiritual cultivator in less than a year, God knows what kind of achievements he will have in the future, if he offends the martial family, isn't it looking for death?
Hearing the news of Wu Aotian's promotion to spiritual cultivator, Qi Tiancheng, the head of the Qi family, was stunned and secretly rejoiced, fortunately, after the fall of the Wan family, he realized that the Wu family was wrong, and under the pretext of cooperation, he opened up a new business and pulled the Wu family in, although he made a lot of money, but finally eliminated the hatred of the Wu family towards the Qi family.
If you don't react quickly, you act early...... Will the Qi family be like the Wan family?
Thinking of this possibility, Qi Tiancheng's brain had two more drops of cold sweat, so there were more Qi family people in Shangwu Mansion to congratulate, but fortunately, the Qi family's martial arts family cooperated in business, and there were still a lot of contacts between the two families, and Qi Tiancheng's movement seemed much more natural.
Regarding these recent changes, while Wu Houde is proud of his son, he can't help but feel a little proud.
The martial family, now it can be regarded as raising eyebrows, in Songyun City, even the seventh-rank aristocratic Yuwen family is now polite to the martial family, although the martial family is still a ninth-class nobleman, but Wu Aotian becomes a spiritual cultivator in a year, then if it is another ten or eight years, his strength will become stronger and stronger, and the noble level of the martial family may have to be raised by a few levels, it is very simple.
It's just that everyone, including the father and son of the martial family, didn't expect this reward to come so quickly.
"Sir, sir...... The envoy is coming, the envoy is coming!"
The housekeeper Song De hurriedly ran to the garden and shouted with great joy: "Master, go and receive the order!"
Wu Houde put down the teacup in his hand in surprise, and turned his head to look at Song De in surprise: "Special envoy, where did the envoy come from?"
"The envoy from the imperial city is an envoy sent by the king, I just inquired, it seems that I came to reward the martial arts!"
Wu Houde stood up in surprise, tidied up his clothes, and walked quickly outside, shouting at the same time: "I'll go to the reception first, you hurry up and call Ling Feng and Aotian." ”
Wu Aotian was cultivating in his room, and after hearing Song De's words, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, why did a palace envoy suddenly come at this time?
Doubts are doubts, Wu Aotian still quickly walked towards the hall, and before he approached the hall, Wu Aotian felt a strong aura fluctuation, Wu Aotian couldn't help but be stunned in his heart, how could there be a spiritual cultivator?
Wu Aotian walked into the hall and saw that in the hall, Wu Houde was smiling and talking to a middle-aged man wearing a yellow palace guard outfit, and next to this middle-aged man, there was a man who looked to be in his thirties, and the strong aura fluctuations were pouring out of this man's body.
The middle-aged man should be a member of the palace king's guard, this can be seen from the attire, but the man in his thirties is wearing a white robe, there is a pattern above his chest, and between a few auspicious clouds, a palace is faintly exposed.
Wu Ao genius became a spiritual cultivator, naturally he couldn't recognize what power that symbol represented, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, this man was obviously not from the palace, but he didn't know why he came to the martial family with this palace guard.
As soon as Wu Aotian walked into the room, the eyes of the palace guard and the other man turned at the same time, and fell on Wu Aotian's body, his eyes were full of looks, Wu Aotian walked calmly behind his father, and did not speak.
Wu Lingfeng also rushed over quickly, with an excited face, the palace guard smiled: "It's all here, then let's get down to business first." ”
Wu Houde stood respectfully with Wu Aotian and Wu Lingfeng, and the palace guard opened a golden scroll in his hand and began to read it.
Wu Aotian stood silently behind Wu Houde, his eyes lowered, looking at the ground, but he clearly felt that the eyes of the man standing on the side had been hovering over him, and he had never left.
Listening to the palace guards solemnly read the imperial decree, Wu Houde's face was already showing irrepressible excitement, this reward not only rewarded 100,000 phantom spirit coins, a large number of high-grade silk and valuables, but also raised the noble level of the martial family from the last rank of the nobility to the eighth rank of nobles, and with the improvement of this noble level, the fief of the martial family has also increased at least double.
Wu Aotian didn't feel excited, but he was very puzzled in his heart, because the so-called words in the imperial decree about the conscientious and conscientious martial artists and what contributions to the country, Wu Aotian didn't believe it at all, His Majesty the King couldn't pay attention to the insignificant martial artists in the small city of Songyun City, so where did this reward come from?
It's just that Wu Aotian's doubts were quickly answered, and after completing the handover of the imperial decree, the man who had been standing next to him without speaking suddenly took a step forward gently, and his eyes fell on Wu Aotian: "Wu Aotian, do you have time recently?"
Wu Aotian looked at this man with some doubts, not understanding how he asked like this, but he still nodded and said, "Have time, is there anything wrong?"
The man smiled lightly: "That's good, can you come with me, our hall master wants to see you." ”
"Hall Master, see me?" Wu Aotian looked at the man in surprise and asked softly, "I don't seem to know any hall master." ”
The white-robed man smiled lightly: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Jiang Zicong, I am from the Guiyun Palace, and I am one of the eight guards of the hall master. ”
Return to the Cloud Palace!
The mouths of the martial father and son opened wide at the same time, that is the patron saint of Guiyun Country, and it is the holy place in the hearts of the people of Guiyun Country!
The hall master of the Guiyun Hall actually took the initiative to see Wu Aotian!
What an honor!
Wu Aotian was also shocked by the sudden news, but he quickly came back to his senses and asked a little confused: "How could the hall master of the Guiyun Hall want to see me, a nobody, I am really flattered......
Jiang Zicong looked at Wu Aotian after learning his identity, and he was only shocked for a moment, and then he had come back to his senses, his eyes were still very calm, and he did not fall into ecstasy because of this news, and his evaluation of Wu Aotian in his heart couldn't help but be two points higher.
"In less than a year, from not being able to practice the method of strengthening the body to becoming a spiritual cultivator, at such a speed, in the entire history of Guiyun Kingdom, you are the first, and it is never an exaggeration to call you a genius, the hall master has always cherished talents, so I want to see you. ”
Wu Aotian was slightly shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that he would be noticed by the Holy Land, it was really strange, he didn't go to the laboratory to identify the strength level, thinking that his father had mentioned that Chen Feng, the president of the laboratory, had come a few days ago, was it because of this matter?
Wu Aotian naturally couldn't guess that the reason why he was noticed by the Guiyun Palace was because the Guiyun Palace noticed him when the Dragon Soul Sect was destroyed.
Guiyun Hall is the guardian of the entire Guiyun Kingdom, and the Lord of the Guiyun Palace can be said to be the most prestigious person in the entire Guiyun Kingdom.
Wu Aotian was not as excited as Wu Houde and Wu Lingfeng, he was just curious, what was the purpose of this Guiyun Hall Lord seeing him?
It's just that thinking of His Majesty's reward to the martial arts family this time, Wu Aotian faintly guessed the purpose of the Guiyun Palace Lord doing this, presumably behind this reward is also his idea, otherwise His Majesty in the imperial city, where would he pay attention to the ninth-class nobles in a remote town, and the Guiyun Palace Lord did this, he should have discovered his cultivation talent, and felt that he might be very successful in the future, so he had the heart to recruit, although his strength is still low now, but he will give the martial family some benefits first, and he will always be grateful.
For this behavior of the lord of the Guiyun Palace, Wu Aotian did not have any disgust, the Guiyun Palace absorbed all the talents that could be absorbed, but in the end it was to protect the Guiyun Kingdom, in history, the spiritual cultivators of the Guiyun Hall and other countries fought many times, and the casualties were heavy, but they have always insisted on guarding the Guiyun Kingdom, and this alone is worthy of everyone's respect.
"I'm honored to see the Lord of the Cloud Palace, but I don't know when I'll leave?"
Jiang Zicong smiled and said, "If you don't mind, you can leave for Guiyun Hall tomorrow." ”
Since he had already decided to go, Wu Aotian didn't have half a minute to drag the mud and water, and agreed cleanly: "Okay, then let's leave tomorrow." ”
That night, Wu Aotian told Mo Yu and Leng Feng about going to Guiyun Palace, Leng Feng has always followed Wu Aotian's side, Mo Yu originally didn't care much about other things except for cultivation, but when he heard that he was going to Guiyun Palace, he was also quite excited, and took the initiative to say that he would also go together.
Wu Aotian is naturally welcome, with two more people around, firstly, it will not be so boring, and secondly, if there is anything, it will be good to take care of it.
The next morning, out of politeness, Wu Aotian told Jiang Zicong that Leng Feng and Mo Yu wanted to follow him to Guiyun Palace, Jiang Zicong didn't have any opinion, just said that they could go to Guiyun Hall together, but when the hall master couldn't see them, he couldn't be the master of this matter.
Wu Aotian, Leng Feng and Mo Yu, a group of three, said goodbye to their families, rode horses with Jiang Zicong, left Songyun City, and headed towards Baiyun City, the capital of Guiyun Kingdom.
