Chapter 254 Returning to the Sect
Seeing the surprise on Lu Yuan's face, Ren Qingyan naturally knew what he was thinking, so she slowly said, "These people were already working for Guixu when the imperial court was established."
Over the years, it has been accumulated little by little, and it can be said to be the wealth of the imperial court.
Aside from a few quasi-saint level ancestors, they are the most valuable.
Lu Yuan nodded. A force might be able to produce one or two experts, but to have so many Eternal Realm experts, it would have to be accumulated.
However, the number of the Imperial Guards of the Guixu Heavenly Dynasty should be quite large.
"If the eight million Imperial Guards were to form a combined formation, they could deal with a typical Quasi-Saint level three expert. This is also the greatest strength of our Guixu Sect," the Grand Master said slowly, clearly having heard Ren Qingyan's words and offering a further explanation.
This isn't a big secret; the other powerful figures from the Celestial Empire all know it. Revealing it now can be seen as a gesture of goodwill towards Lu Yuan.
"This trump card is indeed formidable." Lu Yuan nodded.
He didn't ask what kind of formation it was; they had already said so much, and if he asked any more questions, it would be too much of a fuss.
When they entered the palace.
Upon arriving outside a grand hall, they saw the Heavenly Emperor Guixu already waiting with his courtiers.
Logically speaking...
Even if Lu Yuan is a genius, he would never make Guixu Tiandi wait outside the door. Clearly, the other party is apologizing for what happened last time.
Seeing him like this, Lu Yuan's last bit of dissatisfaction quietly dissipated.
After all, there's also Ren Qingyan in the middle.
Opposite him, the Emperor of Guixu also dispersed the golden mist that clung to his body, revealing a dignified middle-aged man.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan, he said with a smile, "I am truly pleased that my nephew Lu has come to my Guixu Palace. Please come with me into the palace."
As she spoke, she personally pulled Lu Yuan inside.
As for Ren Qingyan, she followed behind with a smile.
She naturally hoped that her father could overcome the estrangement between him and Lu Yuan.
After all, apart from Lu Yuan, this Crown Princess really doesn't look up to anyone else now.
After entering the hall.
As the officials took their seats, Emperor Guixu pulled Lu Yuan to sit next to him, while Ren Qingyan sat to his right.
From this perspective, they already consider Lu Yuan as one of their own.
And they're like children to them.
This was clearly a display of Lu Yuan's status to everyone.
However, at this moment, Emperor Guixu was also very nervous, but he was afraid that Lu Yuan would refuse.
If that's the case, then my plan has failed.
But Lu Yuan gave Ren Qingyan a meaningful look, and after noticing her mischievous gaze, he said nothing more.
All things considered, I'm not at a loss.
Seeing Lu Yuan settled down, Emperor Guixu breathed a sigh of relief.
This matter is now settled.
Then, a smile appeared on his face as he said to Lu Yuan, "The wine we're drinking today is from the very beginning of Guixu's establishment. I usually can't bear to drink it, but let's drink to our hearts' content today."
"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Majesty," Lu Yuan said with a light laugh.
"Oh, why call me Your Majesty? That's too formal. Just call me Uncle." After saying that, Emperor Guixu drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
Lu Yuan nodded.
Next, the courtiers came up to offer toasts.
After a few drinks, the atmosphere in the hall became lively.
Many military officers gathered around Lu Yuan, showering him with compliments.
This is not only due to Lu Yuan's talent, but also a recognition of his strength.
After all, the other party has built their reputation step by step since leaving the Changqing Sect.
Some people would occasionally glance at the nine-headed lion outside the main hall.
So, for the rest of the time, everyone drank and enjoyed themselves immensely.
After the meal, Emperor Guixu returned home.
Ren Qingyan then helped Lu Yuan choose a place to stay.
The care provided was so thorough that it was impossible to find fault with it.
In the following days.
Ren Qingyan spent almost all her time with Lu Yuan, and of course, officials from the capital city also came to visit her.
They all brought various gifts, but it seemed they knew Lu Yuan's preferences.
Therefore, they are all rare and precious treasures.
When Lu Yuan was about to leave three days later, he received various cultivation resources, which had increased several times over.
This is the benefit of strength and reputation.
Outside the palace, Emperor Guixu personally escorted Lu Yuan out.
Looking at the other party, he said with a smile, "These past few days, the officials of my Guixu Heavenly Dynasty have been quite enthusiastic. As the emperor, I cannot be stingy. I heard that your Zhenyao Pass obtained a piece of ancient embryo tree, which is a rare treasure used by immortals."
I will give you a Five Elements Fruit Tree. The fruit that grows on this precious tree can be consumed by experts at the Five Qi Realm.
If used for alchemy, the effect is also quite good. The foundation of the Changqing Sect is a bit weak. With this and your Ancient Embryo Tree, you can quickly cultivate a group of experts at the Five Qi Realm.
Furthermore, I plan to personally visit the Changqing Sect in the future to discuss the alliance with the Sect Master.
Upon hearing what the Emperor of Guixu said...
Lu Yuan immediately said, "Thank you, Uncle."
He meant it sincerely, no matter what.
The actions of the Emperor Guixu are a good thing for the Changqing Sect.
"Hehe, no need to be so polite, we're all family," Emperor Guixu said with a smile.
Seeing Lu Yuan's attitude, he knew even more that he had made the right move.
At the same time, he was grateful to have a good daughter. If she hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have known how to get close to Lu Yuan.
After exchanging a few polite words, Lu Yuan left.
Ren Qingyan did not follow him.
Instead, they planned to meet at Zhenyao Pass after a period of time.
After all, Lu Yuan still had to visit the Luo family on his way back.
Having obtained a large amount of cultivation resources, Lu Yuan was eager to return home.
After leaving the Imperial City, they flew straight towards the Changqing Sect at an extreme speed.
Now, with the improvement of his cultivation, he has already entered the territory of the Changqing Sect in just a few days.
Looking down, Lu Yuan discovered that there were not many demons left in the Void Domain; they must have all been eliminated.
There was a faint aura of a demon race, but it was only at the Transcendent Realm, and even the True Spirit Realm was rare. Moreover, it was hiding very deep, obviously afraid of being discovered.
"It seems the sect has cleaned up quite a few demons recently," Lu Yuan muttered to himself.
He continued to observe and discovered that, apart from the decrease in the number of demons, the number of humans had increased.
Many more cities have been added.
However, it's not surprising when you think about it. After the Void Realm stabilized, it became a place with more land than people. Many rogue cultivators had nowhere to stay outside, so they naturally came here to settle down.
Moreover, the Changqing Sect must have been deliberately recruiting people during this period, which is why the situation is like this.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his lips.
Then, he headed down, having already returned to the Changqing Sect, intending to visit his master first.
