Chapter 173: A Different Surname Crowns the King
Because Wu Aotian has already shown enough strength, it is already enough to deter the Dongyue Kingdom and the Jade Kingdom, plus the deterrent power of the old man Xuantian, a heavenly spirit powerhouse, there is no need to worry that the two countries will turn against the water.
If it is against the water, it is not good for Guiyun Kingdom, Wu Aotian doesn't mind riding the Flame Demon and killing their country together, turning their country upside down.
If you count Dong Yuanyuan and Ding Ding, three people and one beast, it is basically enough to deal with any spiritual cultivator sect in Dongyue Country or Jade Country, even if you encounter the strong people of Dongyue Sect and Jade Pavilion, as long as you are not a master, if you meet four people, I am afraid you will only be sent to death.
With this deterrent power, Wu Aotian was not prepared to continue to participate in the conquest of the Sea Kingdom, the armies on both sides of the Dongyue Kingdom and the Jade Kingdom had withdrawn, and the spiritual cultivators who had been restrained had also gathered together, and there were still a lot of strong people, but it was enough to deal with the rest of the Sea Kingdom.
To save Guiyun Country from danger, Wu Aotian, as a native of Guiyun Country, should do that, but opening up territory is not something he is worried about.
Therefore, when the spiritual cultivators of Guiyun Kingdom, under the leadership of Zhu Zidan, were about to enter the Sea Kingdom with the army, Wu Aotian said goodbye to Zhu Zidan, but Zhu Zidan was not too surprised, and he did not say anything to stop him.
Wu Aotian was not keen on state affairs originally, Zhu Zidan has always been very clear about this, and Wu Aotian has done enough to turn the tide, and they can already take care of the rest of the things themselves, so naturally there is no need to keep Wu Aotian.
No matter where Wu Aotian goes, as long as Wu Aotian's strength is getting stronger and stronger, this will be a great good thing for Guiyun Kingdom.
Wu Aotian asked if Zhu Zidan had any news about his sister Liu Ruxue, but he didn't get any news, and after being a little disappointed, Wu Aotian and Dong Yuanyuan and others embarked on the journey home.
At the same time, Zhu Zidan also personally wrote a secret letter, sent a spiritual cultivator to the palace on the white crane as soon as possible, and handed the secret letter to the emperor of Guiyun Kingdom, and the emperor of Guiyun Kingdom quickly made a corresponding decision after reading the secret letter.
The Flame Demon couldn't fly, so his feet were always a little slower, and when they returned to the Songyun City Martial Arts, it was already a few days before they arrived at the door, and the guards guarding the door had their eyes lit up, and shouted loudly in surprise: "The Third Young Master is back!"
Wu Aotian looked at the colorful Wufu with some surprise, is there any happy event in the Wufu?
With a doubtful attitude, Wu Aotian stepped into the house, and soon, Wu Aotian saw his father Wu Houde and his eldest brother Wu Lingfeng rushing out quickly.
At this time, it has been more than a year since he left home last time, and looking at that familiar and kind face, Wu Aotian was very happy in his heart.
"Third brother, you're finally back, we've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
Wu Aotian asked a little strangely, "Do you know that I am coming back?"
Wu Lingfeng laughed and said: "You turned the tide on the borderline, not only saved the Guiyun Kingdom, but also counterattacked and defeated the Sea Kingdom, and shocked the Dongyue Kingdom and the Jade Kingdom, we know it clearly......"
Wu Aotian became more and more strange, these things had only happened for a short time, and the speed at which he and the others were not hurrying was fast, how could they all know about it?
Looking at Wu Aotian's dazed appearance, Wu Houde smiled, his face was full of relief and happiness: "Aotian, the palace has a special envoy, and he has clearly told us what you have done these days." ”
As if he understood Wu Aotian's doubts, Wu Houde added: "The envoy is a spirit master who came on a white crane, so he arrived home before you." ”
Wu Aotian suddenly came to his senses, and said with a smile: "So, I have made a great contribution, and the emperor is going to reward our martial artist again?"
Wu Houde nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, it's just that I don't know what the specific reward is, the envoy said that he would announce it when you go home." ”
Wu Aotian is not surprised, this time he has made such a great achievement, it would be strange if he did not reward the family, but I don't know what will be rewarded this time?
The martial arts family has already been rewarded as a seventh-class nobleman before, and this time he has made a great contribution, so he has to jump a few levels, right?
Third-class nobles?
Wu Aotian was thinking about Liu Ruxue, Mo Yu and others, and asked with anticipation: "By the way, in the year that I have been gone, do you have any news from my sister?"
Wu Houde nodded and said with a smile: "More than three months ago, your sister sent two letters, one for us and one for you......"
Wu Aotian was overjoyed, after a year or two, Wu Aotian finally got the news of Liu Ruxue again, at least, Liu Ruxue can ask someone to send a letter, and looking at the smile on Wu Houde's face, Liu Ruxue should have nothing to do now.
"What about Mo Yu and Leng Feng, do you have any news about them?"
Wu Houde nodded and smiled: "Ruxue mentioned it in the letter, saying that they were with her, and now their strength has risen greatly, so don't worry." ”
Wu Aotian was stunned, but he was a little surprised, he fought with the people of Yunhai Sect next to Lingquan that day, and the three of them left first, I don't know how Leng Feng and Mo Yu were with Liu Ruxue in the end, could it be that they went back before themselves?
It's just that Wu Aotian was still quite happy to hear the news of their safety all of a sudden, after all, he had been busy looking for Liu Ruxue for more than a year, and what else did they say about the surge in strength, it seems that they have also gone through penance or have some adventures.
Thinking of Liu Ruxue's violent combat power, Wu Aotian suddenly had a thought in his heart, I don't know who is higher and who is lower in the current combat power between himself and Liu Ruxue?
As he spoke, several people walked into the house together, and suddenly three tall figures came out, laughing and said, "Aotian, you're back." ”
Wu Aotian fixed his eyes, but it was the three brothers of the Tie family.
The appearance of the three brothers of the Tie family has not changed much, but there is already a lot of aura fluctuations on their bodies, which makes Wu Aotian a little surprised, he didn't expect that the three brothers of the Tie family have all been promoted to become spiritual cultivators.
Wu Aotian estimated the fluctuations in the aura of several people, and estimated that the three brothers of the Tie family should be at the level of spiritual disciples, and the eldest brother Wu Lingfeng should be more powerful than them, thinking that the originally weak martial arts family had so many spiritual cultivators all at once, and the changes in this were really not small.
The servants and guards of the martial family all looked at Wu Aotian with extremely awe-inspiring eyes, and beside him, the fire demon shook his head, and his blood-red eyes swept around, making the people who were watching it always tremble.
Entering the house, Wu Aotian was about to ask his father to take out the letter, a spiritual cultivator in a yellow robe walked out with a few people, Wu Houde hurriedly stood up and introduced: "Aotian, this is the envoy from the palace, Jiang Shouheng. ”
Wu Aotian smiled and nodded, but Jiang Shouheng did not have the slightest arrogance of the palace envoy, but looked at Wu Aotian with respect in his eyes.
Whether it is because Wu Aotian saved the Guiyun Kingdom this time and made a monstrous contribution, or because of his own strength Wu Aotian, it is enough to make this Jiang Shouheng have enough respect.
The majesty of imperial power is more aimed at ordinary people, or ordinary low-level spiritual cultivators, strong people like Wu Aotian who have entered the earth spirit, or even a strong person who has the ability to kill the peak earth spirit, but it has little effect.
What's more, if it weren't for Wu Aotian and others returning in time to turn the tide this time, Guiyun Country would be gone, let alone the imperial power?
Wu Aotian was not proud of this, he met Jiang Shouheng very politely, but Jiang Shouheng first expressed his admiration to Wu Aotian with a reverent face, and greeted him for a long time, with a very enthusiastic attitude, until Wu Aotian was a little embarrassed, and then he remembered his task and took out the emperor's imperial decree.
The content of the imperial decree was not very long, but when Wu Aotian heard it, there was an extremely surprised expression in his eyes.
The reward is indeed sealed, but it is not a sixth, fiveth, fiveth, and other nobles, nor a three, two, and first class nobleman, but a direct king!
It's true, there is no half-point falsehood, and the king is crowned!
It is not that there are no princes with different surnames in the country, but only by making great contributions can they obtain such glory, but now that Wu Aotian has turned the tide and saved Guiyun Kingdom, this credit can indeed be regarded as great.
The reward was directly awarded to Wu Aotian, perhaps considering Wu Aotian's character, the name of this reward is also quite interesting, King Xiaoyao.
Wu Aotian was rewarded by King Xiaoyao, and the martial family naturally became a royal mansion, and it was above the noble level, which can be described as a cloud.
Not only did he reward Wu Aotian, but Wu Aotian's whole family, including her sister Liu Ruxue, who was not in Songyun Kingdom, also received a lot of rewards and titles, and Wu Houde was rewarded a lot, although the name was slightly inferior, but it could also be seen that the emperor's heart was enveloped.
In addition to the large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin that Kaifeng rewarded, more importantly, the samurai family has its own fiefdom from now on!
This fief is centered on Songyun City, radiating three hundred miles outward, and this fiefdom is a private territory, that is to say, from today onwards, in the territory of two hundred miles outside Songyun City, the martial family is the emperor of the soil, and the martial family is the supreme existence.
In the imperial decree, the emperor allocated a large amount of resources and property, and wanted to rebuild a palace for the samurai outside Songyun City, and the craftsmen did not have to worry about the samurai, so naturally the relevant commissioners would come to handle it.
In addition, there are some noble rights that do not cost money, what to enter the court and not to worship, what to hold weapons and so on, all of which show the glory of the samurai today.
After the decree was announced, there was a thick list of rewards, and after Jiang Shouheng politely handed it over to Wu Houde, and respectfully said goodbye to Wu Aotian, he led people to leave the Wu Mansion.
Wu Aotian didn't care too much about this reward, for him now, Guiyun Kingdom was already like a small pond, and he had already met the Jiaolong of the Yuan, and this small pond could no longer trap him.
If it is a tiger, it should be proud of the roaring mountains and forests.
If it's a dragon, it should soar into the sky.
