In the Zhu family hall, the head of the family, Zhu Guoao, and Zhu Zhuyun gathered around a table of food, waiting for the arrival of Xu Ran and Zhu Zhuqing.
When Xu Ran directly carried Zhu Zhuqing to the hall in a princess hug, both Zhu Aoao and Zhu Zhuyun cast their eyes on the two of them. Zhu Zhuqing closed her eyes and lowered her head, not daring to look at her father and sister.
She was a little embarrassed before, but when she thought that if her father and sister saw her limping, she would be even more embarrassed, so she let Xu Ran hold her.
But this is just a cover-up. As for the matter of Xu Ran and Zhu Zhuqing, how could Zhu Aoyao, a person who has been here, not see it? At this moment, looking at Zhu Qing's weak look, the muscles on Zhu Aoyao's face trembled slightly.
As a great soul master, Qing has received a lot of resources since he was a child, and his physical fitness is definitely not bad. But even so, Zhu Qing still became so weak.
This can only mean one thing, Xu Ran has quite the same demeanor as he did when he was young.
"Uncle, Sister Zhuyun, I kept you waiting for a long time." Xu Ran put Zhu Zhuqing on the chair next to him and apologized to Zhu Aoao and Zhu Zhuyun.
"It's okay, it's just that I disturbed you two without knowing it." Zhu Aoao said with a smile. He wished that Zhu Zhuqing and Xu Ran could cook the rice as soon as possible. He liked to see this situation now.
After all, Xu Ran is just a collateral disciple of the Zhu family. If there is nothing to tie Xu Ran to his side, he will only cry when Xu Ran goes to another force.
He had heard from Zhu Yun that Xu Ran's soul ring had actually changed to two purple and one black. Before, his soul ring was only two yellow and one purple. How did this change occur? He was full of doubts.
, but he would not interfere. Xu Ran's talent was very strong, so he would naturally not interfere with Xu Ran's cultivation. Because this might arouse Xu Ran's resentment.
What he wants is for Xu Ran to become very strong, the stronger the better.
The stronger Xu Ran is, the stronger the Zhu family will be, and the stronger the Xingluo Empire will be.
Zhu Zhuqing was sitting on a chair. Hearing his father's teasing laughter, he couldn't help but arrogantly kicked Xu Ran a few times under the table. If she had known that it would be so painful after doing that and that she would not even be able to walk normally, then she would definitely
Wouldn't make that decision.
Xu Ran couldn't help but feel funny when he felt Zhu Zhuqing's little feet under the table that kept swinging toward him gently. But at the dinner table, he couldn't make fun of Zhu Zhuqing, so he had to turn his attention to Zhu Aoao and talk about business.
"Uncle, what do you want to see me for this time?"
"Oh. During the court meeting this morning, His Majesty specifically mentioned you in the court hall. You are now a genius of our Star Luo Empire, the Son of Destiny. Your future prospects are limitless." Zhu Gao said happily,
There was a smile on his face.
Originally, he was worried that the Dai family would be in trouble if they found out that Xu Ran and Zhu Zhuqing were together. At that time, he had to keep Xu Ran no matter how much trouble he had with the Dai family. But he didn't expect that Xu Ran would be so smart himself.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Xu Ran turned to Davis and used Davis to help him deal with the royal family. This move really took seconds.
Davis is the eldest prince and the future emperor. Even His Majesty needs to listen to his opinions. What's more, Xu Ran is willing to assist Davis, which is worthy of the royal family to consider the pros and cons.
If nothing unexpected happens to Xu Ran, his future achievements may even surpass that of Haotian Douluo, the youngest titled Douluo in history who shocked the mainland. What role does such a genius have in the Star Luo Empire, which currently lacks high-level soul master resources? This is something the royal family must consider.
Therefore, after some analysis, it was impossible for the royal family to take action against Xu Ran. Because the benefits brought by Xu Ran were too high, the negative impact of Xu Ran and Zhu Zhuqing being together was not worth mentioning in comparison.
Even at that time, the royal family was able to create the appearance that Xu Ran and Zhu Zhuqing truly loved each other and the royal family generously agreed, allowing the world to see the royal family's benevolence and righteousness.
"Uncle, what do you mean by this?" Xu Ran raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhu proudly.
"Your Majesty has no objection to you and Zhuqing being together, but you need to be careful in Xingluo City not to let people in the city gossip."
"Besides," Zhu Guoyao took a deep look at Xu Ran and said, "His Majesty and the ministers have decided to grant you the title of Marquis and the title of Destiny. From now on, you will be the Destiny Marquis of the Star Luo Empire. Theory Only under me, the Duke, and the six other powerful marquises in the empire."
"What?" Xu Ran, Zhu Zhuyun, and Zhu Zhuqing all looked at Zhu Aoao in surprise, a little dumbfounded. The title of marquis is second only to that of a duke.
"Don't make a fuss. His Majesty only gave Xu Ran a title but not any substantial fiefdom or official position. It's just that the name of the Marquis is loud." Zhu Gaoao said with a smile. This is the royal family's way of winning people's hearts. But even if Xu Ran only had a title, which brought him a lot of benefits.
"That's very strong. In the history of Douluo Continent, there has never been a marquis as young as Xu Ran. Even such a young earl has never appeared." Zhu Zhuyun couldn't help but said, looking at Xu Ran, full of joy It's complicated.
If the fact that Xu Ran was awarded the title of Marquis is revealed to the world in a few days, then Xu Ran's reputation will be known to the world. What a great honor it is to be granted the title of Marquis at the age of twelve!
Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing could not help but blush with excitement. When His Majesty's decree is conveyed, Xu Ran will be famous all over the world.
"Yes, this time the royal family is showing sincerity in order to tie Xu Ran to the empire." Zhu proudly said. However, Xu Ran's talent is also worthy of the Dai family. With the configuration of two purple and one black soul rings, the soul master can be used in seconds. The fighting power of the Lost Soul King and Xu Ran's talent are truly astonishing.
Xu Ran took a token from Zhu Guoao's hand, with a large character "Xu" engraved on it, and a ferocious leopard-shaped soul beast carved on the back of the token. This beast-shaped token is the symbol of the title of Marquis.
"Marquis Tianming?" Xu Ran took the token in his hand, played with it for a while, and then put it into his storage soul guide.
He was not surprised by this title. This status has both advantages and disadvantages for him. Once the emperor is announced to the world, he will definitely become a popular figure in the entire continent. Being a young man is a big deal. It's a gimmick, enough to become the talk of countless people after dinner.
But this may also attract the attention of some big forces in advance.
But the benefits seem to be more.
The Marquis is second only to the Duke. With this status, which means that he is second only to Zhu Guoao in terms of title in the Star Luo Empire, it would probably be easier to have friendly exchanges with Qian Renxue with this status.
