Chapter 141 Leaving the Hunting Ground and the Great Buddha Temple
Fang Ling slowly came to Ning Zhirou and said, "Go back!"
Ning Zhirou turned to look at the palace: "Don't worry, follow me into the palace first to meet Emperor Wen."
"This time you showed off your talents in the hunting grounds of hundreds of tribes and rectified the name of our human race. Emperor Wen admired it very much and said that he would give you a heavy reward."
"Moreover, when the powerful aliens wanted to kill you, Emperor Wen stepped forward to protect you. You should go see him both emotionally and rationally."
Fang Ling had heard this matter mentioned by the Princess of the Spirit Clan, and it was indeed such a thing, so he nodded in agreement.
The two set off and immediately flew towards the palace.
Emperor Wen and others must have known about Fang Ling's emergence from the battlefield of hundreds of tribes at the first time.
At this moment, except for the old Supreme Emperor, everyone in the Tianlong Dynasty and the Zhou family's six great wonderlands gathered here.
Emperor Wen sat on the dragon throne, showing no anger and authority, showing his domineering attitude, showing his imperial demeanor.
Fang Ling glanced at them and found that these immortal realm experts from the Tianlong royal family were generally stronger than the immortal realm masters from the Dao League.
Except for Zhou Wu, the King of Thousand Machines, the cultivation levels of the others are unfathomable, and they are all powerful sects who have been in the fairyland for many years.
Before he entered the hunting ground of the Hundred Tribes, he heard the conversation between Thousand Machine King and Ning Zhirou and knew this person's character.
At the moment, his face is calm, but Fang Ling feels that he may not give up.
It's just that he deliberately restrained himself because of the strong men in his family.
"Although his divinity is restrained, his cultivation is not obvious."
"But you can still be so calm in front of us, you are very good!"
Emperor Wen looked at Fang Ling with a slight smile on his face.
Fang Ling: "Your Majesty is so complimentary. It's just Fang Ling, so why bother?"
"You don't have to be humble. You deserve the most credit for building up our human race's reputation." Emperor Wen said with a smile.
"This is a jar of true dragon's blood, the reward you deserve."
"With your strength, your physical body should be able to withstand the erosion of the true dragon's power, and you can refine it as soon as possible."
"In addition, I also want to confer a marquis on you!"
"With your reputation, you deserve the position of Marquis."
"I, the Marquis of the Tianlong Dynasty, have a minimum annual salary of 10 billion spiritual stones, and I have also prepared a fiefdom. It is a rich land, including more than 100 million people."
"Everything in the fief belongs to you, and you don't need to pay any taxes to the court."
Hearing this, Fang Ling immediately said: "Thank you for your Majesty's appreciation, but Fang is just a wandering crane. If I were asked to settle down, I would feel uncomfortable."
"Let's forget about the matter of becoming a marquis!"
Emperor Wen had known that Fang Ling would answer like this, so he was not surprised at all.
Although he really wanted Fang Ling to stay in the Tianlong Dynasty for a long time, he also knew that this was unrealistic.
"That being the case, I won't force it anymore." Emperor Wen said calmly.
"But there is an opportunity, I wonder if you dare to be interested in it."
Fang Ling: "I wonder what the opportunity is?"
Emperor Wen: "Twenty years later, Cihang Bodhisattva of Ten Thousand Buddhas Monastery will soon open a forum to discuss the Dharma."
"Cihang Bodhisattva is the most powerful person in the Middle God Realm. She can bear it when sentient beings call her by the name of Bodhisattva, because she is truly a powerful person in the Immortal Realm!"
"With her cultivation, her lectures on Dharma and Taoism may be of great benefit to us, let alone young people like you."
"However, Cihang Bodhisattva wholeheartedly wants to support the younger generations, so the invitations sent to all ethnic groups specifically specify that only the younger generation under a thousand years old can enter the altar to listen to the Tao."
"If you don't have anything important to do, you might as well stay in our Tianlong Dynasty for twenty more years."
"We'll wait until this matter is settled before we go and stay."
When Fang Ling heard this, he had some doubts.
This matter sounds very good, but now that he is the target of public criticism, it is inevitable that no strong foreigner will try against him.
Emperor Wen seemed to notice his doubts and said sternly: "As for safety, don't worry."
"As long as you stay in Tianlong Dynasty for one day, I will protect you for one day."
"Besides, you don't have to worry about the Bodhisattva opening the altar."
"In the Central God Realm, no clan dares to provoke the Great Buddha Temple."
"The Great Buddha Temple is not a force of our human race, and this Cihang Bodhisattva is not a human body, but a place where the strong men from a region gather!"
"Killing is always prohibited around the Great Buddha Temple."
"Besides, as long as I receive the list of names, no strong man from the older generation will be able to take action against you within the next twenty years."
"Otherwise, we will be enemies of the Great Buddha Temple!"
"Okay! Then I will stay for now and wait until twenty years later." Fang Ling nodded.
What he values is not Cihang Bodhisattva's sermons on Taoism and sutras, but the protection of the Great Buddha Temple for the past twenty years.
It is not difficult to tell from Emperor Wen's words that this Great Buddha Temple is quite terrifying.
Just this Cihang Bodhisattva is enough to make any ethnic group fear him.
"Okay! There is another thing I want to trouble little friend Fang Ling." Emperor Wen said again.
"I know, haven't you met little friend Fang Ling yet?"
Under the throne, Prince Zhou Zhiwei walked out in a few steps and came to Fang Ling's side.
"I, Zhou Zhiwei, the Crown Prince of Tianlong Dynasty, have met fellow Taoist Fang Ling!" He greeted Fang Ling with a salute.
Reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling man, Fang Ling returned the greeting: "Your Majesty, you're welcome!"
"I have devoted my life to state affairs and practiced diligently, and it was only in recent years that I gave birth to this son." Emperor Wen added.
"Although this boy is still a figure in the Tianlong Dynasty, he is not outstanding among the hundreds of tribes."
"In the future, I hope little friend Fang Ling will pay more attention to my unsatisfactory heir."
"As the saying goes, those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are dark. I hope this boy can become better by staying by your side."
Zhou Zhiwei echoed: "Father is right, the child will definitely learn more from fellow Taoist Fang Ling in the future!"
Fang Ling: "I have gained some enlightenment in the hunting grounds of hundreds of tribes. I'm afraid I will have to stay in seclusion for a long time..."
"It doesn't matter, just communicate more when we have the opportunity." Emperor Wen smiled and said, "I don't want you to be his master."
In fact, he just wanted his son to get closer to Fang Lingduo. Even if he could not become a close friend, he could still be considered an acquaintance.
Not long after staying in the palace, Fang Ling followed Ning Zhirou back to Honghua Tower.
……………………
In the room, Ning Zhirou was a little shy and didn't dare to look at him.
"I wonder how the matter I asked fellow Taoist Fang Ling went well?" she muttered.
Fang Ling took out the red flower bell from his arms and placed it on the table.
Ning Zhirou looked at the red flower bell with joy and quickly put it away.
Before her master died, he specifically confessed this matter.
Now that it's done, she feels like she's accomplished a major event in her life.
"Thank you! Besides, what I promised you back then..." She was about to take out the treasure from her arms.
But Fang Ling smiled evilly, stepped forward and said, "You and I are Taoist couples, so what you say is a bit harsh, right?"
Ning Zhirou's pretty face turned red and she muttered: "I was blinded by lard at that time, so I made random accusations, but they don't count!"
"This gift to you also includes compensation for your loss of good reputation."
Fang Ling said in a deep voice: "I never joke with others, I just do whatever I say!"
When Ning Zhirou saw that he was serious, she almost burst into tears: "Otherwise I..."
