In the hall, more than a dozen emperor-level elders and a group of old-generation strongmen have already taken their seats.
When the Lord of Whispering Mountain appeared, everyone immediately saluted. Lord Whispering nodded slightly and sat on the only throne in the hall.
However, Whispering did not fill the seat. Instead, he leaned slightly to the side and looked at Long Chen, saying meaningfully:
"Long Chen, sit next to me!"
Lord Whispering's words immediately shocked everyone in the hall. Although Long Chen was a spirit awakener, sitting with Lord Mountain Master, what was he implying?
Long Chen was stunned at first, and then shook his head like a rattle. This position was not so easy to sit in. If he sat up, he might not be able to get down. He didn't want to be tied to a position.
"It's better for the junior to stand, so that I can stand up straight." Long Chen said.
Long Chen's double entendre was equivalent to telling Lord Whispering Mountain directly that he was not interested in power and status. Perhaps this position was a fatal temptation for all the disciples of the Purple Blood Clan, but he didn't take it seriously.
In fact, Master Qingyu asked Long Chen to sit next to her, on the one hand, to test whether Long Chen had the heart to contribute to the Purple Blood Clan and the desire for power.
However, in addition to these two tests, she also wanted to use this method to show the Jiuli Clan Long Chen's status in the Purple Blood Clan, but Long Chen refused, so she stopped forcing him.
Long Chen stood beside the Lord of Qingyu Mountain, who nodded slightly to an elder below. At this time, the main door of the hall slowly opened.
As the door opened, a group of people slowly walked into the hall, led by a man with silver hair and white beard, with an immortal style. Although he was old, he had a sense of being out of this world.
This was an emperor-level strongman, with eyes as deep as water. This person walked steadily, with fluttering sleeves, and every movement was accompanied by the style of a king, with the pressure of being in a high position for a long time.
Behind him, there were also eight emperors, but these eight emperors were quite young, each of them looked to be in his thirties, with a restrained aura, condensed and not scattered, and at first glance they were all the best among the emperors.
Behind the eight powerful emperors were more than thirty young men and women, all of whom were powerful emperors.
These powerful people from the Jiuli tribe, from old to young, all wore white clothes and white shoes, spotless, giving people a sense of holiness and luxury.
"Zhao Manjiang from the Jiuli Temple, I pay my respects to the Master of Whispering Mountain. I came here in a hurry today. This small gift is not a sign of respect!" As he spoke, the eight powerful emperors behind him spread their hands at the same time, each holding a beautiful treasure box.
No one knew what was in the treasure box, and of course, it was even more impossible to open it directly in front of others, otherwise it would be too rude.
At this time, a gift officer had come forward to accept the gift box. The gift officer was equivalent to the accountant in the mortal world, responsible for recording the number, value and other information of the gifts, and would return the gifts later.
The Whispering Mountain Master smiled and said, "Jiuli Zixue, we once fought side by side in the Chaos Era and supported the future of the human race. We are of the same blood.
Whispering originally planned to visit the Jiuli Temple in a while, but I didn't expect that Lord Manjiang would get there first. It's really rude."
Long Chen stood beside the Whispering Mountain Master, looking down at Zhao Manjiang and others. Except for Zhao Manjiang, everyone else was looking at Long Chen intentionally or unintentionally. From their eyes, Long Chen could see that they were coming for him.
If they were not coming for him, seeing Long Chen, a young disciple, standing next to the Mountain Master, their eyes would be somewhat puzzled and confused. What kind of identity could be qualified to stand in this position.
And these people obviously knew who Long Chen was. Although they were also a little shocked, they did not show it very obviously.
Zhao Manjiang and Lord Qingyu exchanged meaningless polite words, which were nothing more than complimenting each other and giving Zhao Manjiang a chance to introduce himself.
It turned out that Zhao Manjiang was the deputy palace master of Jiuli Temple. Unlike Emperor Mountain, Jiuli Temple had eight deputy palace masters in addition to the four palace masters.
These eight deputy palace masters, four inner palace masters and four outer palace masters, were the right and left hands of the four palace masters. Even
the deputy palace masters were equally powerful, but their status and rank were one level lower than that of Lord Mountain Master.
Therefore, Lord Mountain Master only waited in the main hall and did not go out to greet him, in order to highlight the difference between host and guest, and the difference between honor and inferiority.
After some polite exchanges, Zhao Manjiang got straight to the point and said,
"Manjiang came here this time to represent the Jiuli tribe and communicate with the Zixue tribe, to pave the way for fighting the catastrophe together and balancing the myriad tribes in the future.
On the other hand..."
Zhao Manjiang looked at Long Chen and said, "I came here for Long Chen of the Jiuli tribe."
Long Chen looked at Zhao Manjiang, neither bowed nor spoke, but just looked at him quietly. At that moment, the scene suddenly became a little awkward.
Seeing Long Chen like this, the eight emperors could not help but frown, and those disciples were even more unhappy: This Long Chen seems to be more difficult to get along with than the legend, this is too crazy!
Even the Lord of Whispering Mountain couldn't stand it anymore. He felt that Long Chen's attitude was too rude and said,
"Long Chen, you are a disciple of my Purple Blood Clan. You also have the blood of the Jiuli Clan flowing in your body. The Lord of Manjiang has come all the way for you. Let's not talk about anything else. You still have to accept this favor."
Lord Whispering meant that you should at least say something and don't let the scene be so cold.
"Long Chen, I know that you have had unpleasant experiences with the Long family and other families.
However, that is a thing of the past. As for who is right or wrong, it is no longer important.
Now that the Jiuli Tower has been opened, the top geniuses of the Jiuli Clan will complete the final blood awakening in the Jiuli Tower before advancing to the Human Emperor.
As the top genius of the Jiuli Clan, you are qualified to enter it. If you miss it, it will probably be a regret for your whole life! We came here this time for this matter."
When hearing the name of the Jiuli Tower, even Lord Whispering couldn't help but be shocked. Jiuli Tower, one of the ten great chaos artifacts, has it awakened? Then why is the Purple Blood Clan's Purple Gold Bell still silent?
The Purple Blood Clan's masters in the hall were all shocked. The Nine Li Tower awakened before the Purple Gold Bell. What does this mean?
They are both the Ten Chaos Artifacts, both suppress the destiny of the two clans, and both are divine weapons that the entire clan guards. Why did the Nine Li Tower awaken first? This is shocking news.
"He is fooling you. The Nine Li Tower has not awakened at all!" At this moment, the voice of the Qiankun Ding sounded in Long Chen's mind.
Originally, Long Chen felt that this guy didn't seem to be so kind. He didn't believe that the arrogant Nine Li Clan would come to the Purple Blood Clan to ask for a disciple who was not even an Emperor Miao.
Originally, Long Chen was suspicious of their motives. Now that the Qiankun Ding said this, Long Chen's eyes suddenly showed murderous intent:
"Their target is not me, but you, right?"
"Almost, they want to use my power to speed up the awakening of the Nine Li Tower." Qiankun Ding said.
At this time, Zhao Manjiang was still showing his sincerity, and Long Chen responded directly with one word:
"Get lost!"
