Zuo Zihua hurriedly said: "Chen Yang will agree, Grandpa Minghuang, please don't kill him. "
"Life or death is all in his own hands. It depends on whether he will make the right choice."
Emperor Ming stood up, with a look of anticipation in his eyes, and said: "Lu Tianhe is almost here. He and I became famous earlier and are the founders of Longwuyuan. Out of respect, I should go to the main hall and wait. I
Let’s go first.”
"I'll go too."
Zuo Zihua quickly followed.
Emperor Ming thought for a while, but did not persuade Zuo Zihua. He asked her to follow him to the main hall and hide behind the screen of the first seat.
Although Emperor Ming was the emperor of the Tiansheng Empire, Lu Tianhe was a man of great influence in the entire Chongwu Star, and his reputation was even greater.
If it weren't for Lu Tianhe, Zuo Simiao's death would not have needed Emperor Ming to deal with it.
Now that Lu Tianhe has reappeared, it is natural to attach great importance to it. Officials from the entire Fenghuo City, as well as powerful people from all forces, have been summoned by Emperor Ming.
Of course, his purpose was not just to welcome Lu Tianhe.
The first is to hold Chen Yang accountable;
Secondly, Emperor Ming wanted to express the attitude of the royal family, even when facing Lu Tianhe. No one could act arrogantly in front of the royal family.
People from other forces will serve as witnesses.
…
Chen Yang followed Lu Tianhe and Liu Luanqi into the city lord's palace, and the journey was smooth until they reached the main hall.
Before entering the main hall, he saw the formation inside. Powerful men from all forces gathered together, with respectful expressions on their faces, looking at the man at the head of the main hall.
"Emperor Ming!"
Chen Yang looked closely and realized that the person sent by the royal family this time was actually an acquaintance of his.
However, although they knew each other, Emperor Ming, as the emperor of the royal family, must be acting from the standpoint of the royal family. Chen Yang had no illusions that the other party would help him.
Continuing to walk inside, Chen Yang sensed that there was someone hiding behind the screen behind Emperor Ming.
It's strange that Emperor Ming, who was presiding over the overall situation here, actually allowed someone to hide behind the screen. It seems that this person's status must be high.
"Who is this person?"
Lu Tianhe glanced at Emperor Ming and asked Liu Luanqi in a low voice.
He has been silent for thousands of years, and times have changed. He no longer knows who the strong men are in the Wuxing Star.
Liu Luanqi introduced: "In the royal family, cultivators with peak concentration will be crowned emperor by the Holy Emperor, and they are called emperors. This person's name is Zuo Ming, and he is one of the emperors. He is very powerful.
"
"oh."
Lu Tianhe nodded, his eyes calm, and he didn't take Emperor Ming too seriously.
"The person here is Dean Lu Tianhe!?"
Seeing someone coming outside the main hall, Emperor Ming, who had already been notified, said loudly.
He sat upright in his chair. Although his voice was loud, he did not have a greeting posture. He still looked like a royal majesty.
As an emperor, Emperor Ming was respected wherever he went. Naturally, he would not stand up to greet Lu Tianhe because of his status.
Otherwise, where is the royal family’s face?
"Emperor Ming, I have admired you for a long time."
Lu Tianhe walked into the hall with a smile, and someone immediately brought two seats for him and Liu Luanqi to sit down.
As for Chen Yang, he could only stand behind the two of them.
Emperor Ming had a friendly smile on his face and said to Lu Tianhe: "Dean Lu, you have been admiring me for a long time, which is a bit embarrassing. We all have been admiring you for a long time. It's a pity that you have seen the beginning but not the end.
Thousands of years have passed, and now we can only see his face."
"I'm an old guy, and my body is about to decay. Don't look up to me for too long."
Lu Tianhe waved his hand, changed the subject, and said: "The Emperor Ming invited us here today, probably for the reward of the Qianlong Conference. This is really Chen Yang's luck, as several previous contestants were unfortunately killed.
Now only Chen Yang is left alive. It seems that only Chen Yang can bear the rewards of the previous few."
Upon hearing this, the hall fell into silence, and everyone was stunned.
You must know that although Lu Tianhe's reputation in Chongwuxing is not as great as that of the Holy Emperor, because he is the founder of Longwuyuan, all cultivators with a little knowledge know his name.
Everyone thinks that Lu Tianhe is a highly respected old man.
Even though many people have never met him, they regard him as their idol.
But hearing what he said today really overturned everyone's three views, making everyone think that someone was impersonating Lu Tianhe and that the person in front of them was fake.
The corners of Emperor Ming's mouth twitched, but without moving his lips, he sent a message to Zuo Yuxing: "Is this person really Lu Tianhe?"
Zuo Yuxing looked embarrassed and replied via voice transmission: "It should be Lu Tianhe, Liu Luanqi will not admit his mistake, and his strength is indeed very strong. As for his attitude, it was the same before. Maybe...he is...
So be it."
Emperor Ming was speechless for a while, thinking it was Lu Tianhe who was joking, and continued: "Dean Lu is really good at laughing. Even if the first few were unfortunately killed, there are also those behind who are taking the lead, and it is not Chen Yang's turn to get the reward.
What's more, the Qianlong Conference is not over yet, so how can we mention rewards."
Lu Tianhe curled his lips and said: "No, the Qianlong Conference is organized by the empire, and Chen Yang has already ranked among the top three. Are you going to default on your debt?"
"Of course we won't default on our debt. We will definitely distribute the rewards when the Qianlong Conference is over."
Emperor Ming changed the topic and continued: "However, before that, we also ask Dean Lu to hand over Chen Yang."
"Hand it over, what do you mean?"
Lu Tianhe said with a blank look on his face.
Emperor Ming said: "When we were at Fenglin Huoshan, Chen Yang took action to kill Zuo Simiao, a descendant of the royal family. This was a provocation to the empire and contempt for the royal family. Does Dean Lu think that we will let this matter go?
?”
Finally got to the point.
Lu Tianhe raised his eyebrows and said, "Zuo Simiao started this incident. He is not as skilled as others, how can he blame Chen Yang?"
Seeing Lu Tianhe's tough attitude, Emperor Ming's expression changed, and his tone became darker, saying: "I don't care about the process, I only care about the result. Zuo Simiao is dead, and I must give an explanation."
Then, Emperor Ming looked at Chen Yang, his tone unquestionable, and said: "Chen Yang, you are extremely talented. It would be a pity if you die like this. This time, don't blame me for not giving you a chance. Now, I will give you a choice
, as long as you follow me and be my subordinate, I will not hold you accountable."
Hearing this, Chen Yang smiled sarcastically, cupped his hands to Emperor Ming and said, "Your Highness, Emperor Ming, do I have any other choice besides this choice?"
"No."
Emperor Ming shook his head and said coldly: "Now, your own life is in your own hands. If you make a decision, you will be rich and powerful in the future, and you can even join the royal family. But if you don't accept this,
If you choose, then what awaits you will be death."
