Sometimes, even if you have already guessed and determined some things in your heart, when it actually happens, it will inevitably cause waves in people's minds.
The size of this disturbance depends on how important the matter is to the parties involved.
The greater the degree, the stronger the waves.
At this moment, on the right side of the Human Emperor, in the empty space where his eyes were looking, there was nothingness undulating there, followed by a gentle voice.
"Your Majesty already has the answer in his mind. How can outsiders say it? Can your Majesty be allowed to change your mind?"
At the same time as the voice came out, a back figure gradually appeared in the void on the right side of the Human Emperor, attracting everyone's gaze.
He is dressed in a white Taoist robe, full of elegance, and has long purple hair, which gives people the feeling of a demon, and his tall and straight figure is like a bell, which catches the ever-changing winds and clouds in the world.
Listening to the voice and looking at the back, Xu Qing's face was expressionless, but his right hand was already tightly squeezed, holding it very hard, and veins were bulging on the back of his hand.
There was no need to identify him from the front, this voice, this figure from behind... already allowed him to confirm the identity of the other party.
A month ago, after being reminded by Ni Hu, he had some guesses about the identity of the national master, but when he actually saw it, the surprise and fluctuation turned into a storm in his heart.
He didn't know why this person could become a national master and appear here openly.
I don’t know what kind of connection or transaction there is between the other party and the Human Emperor.
He only knew that the other party was Zhu Zhao, who killed Liu Ye and led the revolution in Fenghai County. He and he were... incompatible with each other!
He only knew that the other party... was the crow that he must kill!
But today Xu Qing is no longer the same as before. When he sees Prince Ziqing again, his emotions will not collapse. He can already hide his extreme emotions in his heart and not show them outside.
Therefore, Xu Qing lowered his eyes slightly and took a deep breath until the voices of the crowd came to his ears.
"Meet the Imperial Master."
Everyone outside the hall bowed their heads and spoke respectfully.
Although the National Preceptor has no real power in the orthodoxy of the human race, his status is high, second only to the Human Emperor and the Great Emperor.
At this moment, the Human Emperor noticed that everyone was paying homage to the Imperial Master, and with a slight smile on his lips, he looked at the Ancient Emperor Star.
As for the Imperial Master who appeared next to him, he turned around, revealing the mask under his robe.
It was a white smiling face with a strange appearance, but when looking at it, people would instinctively ignore the existence of the mask, because the eyes of the Imperial Master were more dazzling than others, becoming dazzling and attracting all attention.
He faced the officials, nodded, and looked at everyone one by one, and finally... landed on Xu Qing.
Xu Qing raised his head and looked at him.
The Imperial Master smiled.
He has his own pride and his own way of doing things. If what happened today were someone else who was the National Master, he might not reveal his true identity due to some reasons and would cover it up.
But he is Prince Ziqing!
He never hides anything when doing things, nor does he influence his behavior for a certain purpose.
So, when he appeared, he raised his hand and took off the mask on his face, revealing his true appearance to the eyes of the officials.
This is the first time the ministers have seen his face.
Before this, the only one who saw his face was the Human Emperor. As for what others saw, he was always wearing a white robe and a white smiling mask.
At this moment, as the mask was taken off and the face revealed in front of everyone, everyone's expressions changed, and their hearts arose with suspicion.
It's true...this face is actually 70% similar to Xu Qing's!
But it is paler, seems colder, and seems more evil.
But the dazzling eyes seemed to contain no impurities and were extremely clear.
As for the handsome sword-shaped brows flying slanting above his eyes, the thin and lightly pursed lips, and the sharp and angular contours, all these make the Imperial Master like a white dragon between heaven and earth, extremely beautiful and extremely indifferent.
This scene made everyone outside the hall fall silent, and their thoughts were rising, because the similarity between the Imperial Master and Xu Qing was not only in appearance, but also in inner qualities.
Although this can be achieved through magic, it is obviously not in line with the status of a national master.
So...there is only one explanation.
This explanation made everyone fall into deep thought. While they remembered the assassination in the imperial capital, some people looked at the Emperor in a vague way, without revealing their thoughts.
As for the Imperial Master, he didn't pay attention to everyone's gazes. He was looking at Xu Qing with a smile on his face, his eyes as gentle as ever, and he spoke softly.
"Brother, we meet again."
Xu Qing's expression was calm, he looked at the Imperial Master in front of him and said nothing.
"The assassination in the imperial capital was not done by me. I disdain it and will not do it."
The Imperial Master smiled and spoke. After speaking, he turned around and sat next to the Human Emperor. Together with him, he looked at the genius of the Human Race on the Ancient Emperor Star.
The same is true for all the ministers in front of the palace.
Xu Qing's expression remained the same, as if he hadn't seen Zi Qing today. He sat there and everything was as usual, looking up at Ning Yan on the Ancient Emperor Star, counting the time until he left.
He needed this behavior to disperse the storm in his heart.
Outside the hall, it is quiet, like a lake with no wind and waves.
But everyone's heart here has waves. If they are united together, it will probably form a huge wave that will overturn everything.
And time passed little by little in this external tranquility and internal waves, and an hour passed quickly.
The understanding of the genius of the human race of the Ancient Emperor Star also changed at this time.
Looking around, outside the ancient emperor star where the clouds and mist are constantly shrouding, there are thousands of monks sitting cross-legged. Some of them have auspicious signs, and while scenes of visions are transformed, there are also glowing lights.
It means success or imminent success. The more auspicious visions and glows, the higher the level of enlightenment.
But more are still in the process.
However, what these successful people understand is not the inheritance of Tianwei, but the inheritance method left here by those heroes below Tianwei who died in battle for countless years.
There are magical powers and techniques within it. Although it is not as good as the inheritance of Tianhou, it is also unique. It is also a chance that it can be understood.
"That is the combined sword technique of Chen Qinghai, the captain of ten thousand who followed the sword-wielding emperor back then. It's not bad. The genius sent by the sword-wielding palace this time is indeed extraordinary. This is the inheritance second only to Tianhou!"
"It's not just the Tao of Mr. Chen Qinghai that has been enlightened. Look there, the yin and yang statues are transformed. This is the black and white evil power described in ancient books. The person who is enlightened is a little unfamiliar. Judging from his clothes, he should be from the Shenhe Cangyu Sect.
disciple."
As they watched, the silence outside the palace was broken, and some ministers began to laugh and comment among themselves again. When it gradually became lively, the number of people who realized the success gradually increased.
All of a sudden, the glow outside the Ancient Emperor Star continued to glow, and there were many auspicious signs.
And every time after success, the person who realizes will be sent out of the Ancient Emperor Star and appear on the Rainbow Bridge. Everyone has only one chance to realize.
As for Xu Qing, his eyes fell on the ancient emperor star Ning Yan. For an hour, there was no change at Ning Yan. It could be seen that he seemed to be working hard, but it was obviously ineffective.
Xu Qing is not in a hurry, Ning Yan's qualifications are not bad. This kind of understanding, even if he does not obtain the Heavenly King level in the end, he will definitely gain something.
With such thoughts, Xu Qing moved his eyes away from Ning Yan and towards the others, continuing to distract from the storm rising in his heart.
As his eyes swept across, although he didn't recognize almost all of these geniuses, he could tell who the princes were through their robes, especially since there were so many among them that Xu Qing had met before.
For example, the third princess.
For example, the Seventh Prince.
The latter was the first time Xu Qing saw it after arriving in the imperial capital.
The moment he looked at the seventh prince, Xu Qing's eyes were cold and focused. After noticing that there was no auspiciousness or glow on him, Xu Qing moved his eyes away and was about to look at the third princess.
But at this moment, Xu Qing's heart suddenly moved, and his eyes turned as he wanted, looking towards a cloudy area where no one could understand.
The clouds and mists there are circulating at the moment, and are relatively thin compared to other areas. You can even see some of the mountainous landforms of the Ancient Emperor Star under the clouds and mists.
What attracted Xu Qing was the mountainous land of the Ancient Emperor Star.
Although the distance was very far, and the Ancient Emperor Star had only opened its first layer of clouds, so no one could enter the Ancient Emperor Star itself, Xu Qing felt a weak wave coming from the mountainous area.
This fluctuation is very slight, coming from under the mountains, existing inside the ancient emperor star, and is more like a summons.
Xu Qing pondered, and glanced around the thin clouds and mist outside the Ancient Emperor Star. Although there was no one in the thin place, there were still enlightened people in other places around.
But it seems... none of them are aware of this call, as if this call has a specific purpose.
"What is that...also an inheritance?"
Xu Qing thought about it and compared what others had obtained, he found that most of this so-called inheritance was actually formed by some consciousness floating among the clouds and mist.
In comparison, the call coming from the mountains seemed more like the special aura emitted by something substantial.
While Xu Qing was meditating here, clouds and mist suddenly accelerated on the Ancient Emperor Star. The mist rose and flooded all directions, covering all the prodigies. Only one person was revealed and became the center of attention.
Because the tide of clouds and mist was caused by this person, from a distance, a huge whirlpool was centered on this person, rumbling in all directions.
There is also an ancient holy statue, with majesty and holiness, rising above this person, reaching a height of ten thousand feet, shocking the mind, and golden flames spread, burning the heaven and earth.
"Weather inheritance!"
"This is the Taoist teaching of the Flame Halberd Tianzun, who ranks tenth among the one hundred and eight celestial beings."
"The person who realized it is... Meng Yunbai, the grandson of the Taiwei!"
In the imperial capital, all forces and casual cultivators were looking at the Ancient Emperor Star in the distance. Seeing this scene, they were all moved.
Even the other enlightened beings who were covered by the clouds and mist on the Ancient Emperor Star opened their eyes and looked towards Meng Yunbai with different expressions, some were complicated, some were envious, and some were unwilling.
Outside the imperial palace, the officials were smiling and the emperor was appreciative.
Only Xu Qing, after scanning Meng Yunbai, looked in the direction of the covered mountains again.
"The call to me has become stronger..."
