Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In fact, many people had a huge doubt about this prince of the Great Wu Empire. And that was, why didn’t the other party become an emperor? Until now, he had always considered himself a prince.
Logically speaking, after the Martial Emperor died, the only prince would inherit the throne. However, from the beginning to the end, the other party had always considered himself a prince. Even though he had long taken over the Great Wu Empire and possessed the status of an emperor, be it internally or externally, he considered himself a prince.
Although he was addressed as a prince, be it etiquette or attitude, they had to treat him as an emperor.
“Minister Xiang, there’s no need to be so polite.” The Great Wu’s prince smiled warmly. “This time, you can be said to have contributed greatly to my Great Wu Empire. This demigod-level taboo treasure has been lost for a long time, causing our Great Wu Empire to not have a demigod treasure all these years. Now that we have this demigod-level forbidden treasure, 1 believe our Great Wu Empire’s fate will definitely increase greatly.”
The Imperial Prince paused for a moment. He looked at Chen Yuan. “Oh yes, Can you let me take a look at this demigod-level forbidden treasure?”
Chen Yuan nodded. “Yessir.” He extended his finger and tapped his glabella. His glabella split open, revealing an eyeball that was as deep as the starry sky. Once the entire eyeball was revealed, a terrifying demigod-level aura immediately spread out and filled the entire palace.
Everyone in the palace was moved. The prince’s gaze was even more fanatical. It had been a long time since he had seen this demigod-level forbidden treasure. Back then, the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, who possessed this demigod-level forbidden treasure, had a reputation that countless people feared in the Great Wu Empire.
It was the strongest faction in the Great Wu Empire.
Although the current Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect no longer had any demigods, with this demigod-level forbidden treasure, the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect would have a powerful deterrence.
Most importantly, this demigod-level taboo treasure would increase the luck of the Great Wu Empire. This was what the prince was most nervous about and valued.
Chen Yuan only briefly revealed the Eye of the Emperor Judgment before his entire cracked glabella closed. After all, he had yet to become a demigod. Even if it was just a simple display, it was still a huge burden for him.
After seeing the Eye of the Emperor Judgment, the prince was obviously in a better mood. He looked at Chen Yuan with a burning gaze. “Minister Chen, I previously suggested that you be the Sect Master of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, but you declined for a long time. Now that you have the Eye of the Emperor Judgment, you can’t refuse anymore, right?”
A long time ago, the prince suggested that Chen Yuan take on the position of the sect master of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. But Chen Yuan felt that his ability was not enough. So he had never inherited the Sect Master of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect. He had always regarded himself as a priest of the Holy See.
This made him the same as his disciples. The difference was that he was a first-generation priest, while Xiang Zizhen and the others were second-generation priests.
Regarding the current proposal of the prince, Chen Yuan did not continue to decline this time. Previously, he mainly felt that the time was not ripe. However, now that he had the Eye of the Emperor Judgment, he indeed needed the identity of the sect master to allow him to obtain a certain level of support when using the Eye of the Emperor Judgment.
After seeing Chen Yuan nod, the prince’s smile grew wider. With a sect master in the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect, it could also bring about an increase in the luck of the Great Wu Empire.
The white-haired old man standing in front of the hall with his hands in his sleeves suddenly said, “Your Highness, I think with Xiang Zizhen’s contribution this time, he should be greatly rewarded.”
The prince nodded in agreement. “Minister Cheng, what do you suggest?”
The white-haired old man said respectfully, “According to the current reward and punishment system of my Great Wu Empire, with the huge contribution Xiang Zizhen has made this time, he should be rewarded with the True Punishment Area. If Xiang Zizhen can really refine the True Punishment Area in the future, it can also allow my Great Wu Empire to have another Sage.”
As soon as the white-haired old man finished speaking, Xiang Zizhen could not help but frown. If he was right, the white-haired old man in front of him should be the Martial Pavilion’s Pavilion Master, Cheng Riyou.
This person was also a Daolord and could be said to be the right-hand man of the prince, together with Chen Yuan.
Now, with his words, he had finally revealed his true intentions! Although he had taken the initiative to offer an area to Xiang Zizhen, the area he had suggested was not the area where a Sage could be born now. Instead, it was another area that could only be refined after at least ten years.
On the martial pavilion’s side, they would not give up their Sage spot just because Xiang Zizhen had made a huge contribution this time. The prince’s expression did not change. He still had a gentle smile on his face as he looked at Chen Yuan. “Minister Chen, what do you think?”
Chen Yuan nodded in agreement. “Pavilion Master Cheng is right. With Xiang Zizhen’s contribution this time, he should indeed be rewarded with an area. However, 1 think this area should be chosen by him, not designated by us.”
Just as Chen Yuan finished speaking, Cheng Riyou sneered. “In the system of the Great Wu Empire, there is no such thing as free choice of an area.”
Chen Yuan did not back down. “Now that the Great Wu Empire’s reward and punishment system is in the hands of your martial pavilion, you can say whatever you want. I just want to emphasize one thing. The contribution that Xiang Zizhen has made this time has never been seen before since the founding of the Great Wu Empire..”
