Chapter 169: Sheng Ye Can you stop causing trouble?
Central Imperial Palace…
In the huge plaza, all the civil and military officials were present.
A five-tentacled True Dragon was carved on the high platform in the center, emanating a majestic and dignified aura.
This was the Sheng Clan's palace, used to worship the ancestors or announce important matters.
This time, the beast tide attacked Southern Wind City, which was considered a great calamity for the Human race. Thus, Sheng Ye ordered the palace temple to be opened and this matter was announced to the world.
Emperor Sheng Ye sat on the dragon throne, quietly waiting for something.
The princes and princesses behind him stood silently.
Sheng Zhixia lowered her head, her expression extremely downcast. She felt a bit guilty, but also a bit self-blame.
As for Sheng Anyi, she secretly glanced at her. Her face was slightly red, and her eyes were filled with shyness.
At this moment, the imperial eunuch shouted, "Sect Master of the Tianshu Institute, Daoist Yi, come here to observe the ceremony!"
Then, ripples appeared in the air, and a white-robed Daoist nun tore through the air.
The pure white Daoist robe was not stained with fine dust. There was a white veil on her face, and her face could not be seen clearly.
She was clearly standing in front of everyone, yet she was like a distant galaxy, separated by countless light years.
"Daoist Yi?" Sheng Ye stood up.
Yi Qinglan nodded slightly. "Emperor Sheng."
She rarely appeared in the mortal world, but the opening of the temple this time was of great importance. Not only did it involve the Tianshu Institute, it also involved hundreds of thousands of ordinary people.
Therefore, in the face of Sheng Ye's invitation, she agreed to come and observe the ceremony.
"Daoist Yi, please take a seat."
Yi Qinglan nodded and sat beside Sheng Ye.
Her chair was on the same level as the dragon chair. It was practically not in order. This was Sheng Ye's respect for Emperor-level experts.
For an existence of this level, the so-called majesty of the imperial clan was a joke.
Yi Qinglan respected his imperial strength and not his identity as the Ninth Emperor. Sheng Ye knew this.
"For Daoist Yi to be able to come and observe the ceremony is of great significance to us, and it also gives us a bit more immortal energy to open the temple this time,” Sheng Ye said with a smile.
Yi Qinglan said indifferently, "Emperor Sheng is too polite. Since this matter concerns the Tianshu Institute, this humble Daoist should be at the Daoist Rite."
Sheng Ye nodded. "I really need to thank your sect's Chief Lin for successfully resisting the beast tide. If it wasn't for the fact that she was there, the lives of the people in Southern Wind City would have been ruined and hundreds of thousands of people would have been buried in the beast's belly!"
Yi Qinglan shook her head and said, "Emperor Sheng's praise is too much. It's all due to the contributions of all the cultivators. Langyue has only done her part."
"Good, good, good!" Sheng Ye praised, "As a genius of the sect, you're able to be loyal to the common people and treat the affairs of the common people as a matter of your own accord. What kind of magnanimity is this? Daoist Yi had truly taught a good disciple!"
His words seemed to praise Lin Langyue, but they actually praised Yi Qinglan.
Yi Qinglan remained calm.'
Then, she fell silent and stopped speaking.
Sheng Ye knew her temper, so he did not mind. He raised his hand and the eunuch immediately sent over a document.
Sheng Ye handed the document to Yi Qinglan and said, "Daoist Yi, take a look first. This is the result of Zhixia's investigation in the southern border. When the time comes, I will announce it to the world."
When Sheng Zhixia heard this, her face paled and her fists were tightly clenched. She wanted to stand out and say something, but a slender hand pulled her back.
She raised her head and saw Sheng Anyi shake her head.
Sheng Zhixia understood her sister's meaning.
It was too late to say anything now.
In front of Sheng Ye and Yi Qinglan, how could she have the right to speak?
This matter not only affected the Sheng Clan, but also the interests of the Tianshu Institute!
Not only would she not be able to change the truth, she would even bring disaster upon herself.
"But…" Sheng Zhixia lowered her head, her eyes misty. "This isn' t the truth!"
Yi Qinglan took the document and began to read it.
She suddenly paused. [Lin Langyue, disciple of the Tianshu Institute, led the Righteous Path's cultivators to repel the beast tide, saving hundreds of thousands of people from fire and water. She was a hero of the human race!
I hereby announce to the world that I will reward ten spirit treasures, eight immortal materials, and give her the title of ‘State Protector True Immortal'!]
A trace of complacency flashed through Sheng Ye's eyes as he looked at her slightly frozen expression.
"How does Daoist Yi feel?"
Yi Qinglan closed the document.
Sheng Ye couldn't help but laugh. "You actually know how to joke."
Yi Qinglan said calmly, "This poor Daoist isn't joking. This writing isn't bad, but the content is somewhat problematic."
"What's the problem?"
"As far as I know, it wasn't Lin Langyue who took the lead in repelling the beast tide, but the Youluo Temple's Sheng Zi Li Ran," Yi Qinglan said.'
Sheng Ye was amused.
This was going to make things clear.
It was also good to talk about it, so as to save everyone from pretending to be confused.
He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Daoist Yi. I've already made the arrangements. This merit will definitely fall on the head of the Tianshu Institute! As long as I am here, Chief Lin will forever suppress Li Ran!"
He held Yi Qinglan firmly this time.
The other party hadn't fought Leng Wuyan in the first place, and Li Ran had broken Lin Langyue's Dao-heart before.
The Tianshu Institute had even issued a killing order to him.
It could be seen that Yi Qinglan wished for Li Ran to die. The two of them could be said to have hit it off.
Yi Qinglan said indifferently, "Then ,I'll trouble Emperor Sheng…"
Sheng Ye smiled proudly. "No trouble, no trouble! I'll only help the Righteous path."
"Then I' ll have to trouble Emperor Sheng to change his mind."
Sheng Ye was shocked. "Ah?"
"Daoist Yi just said… change my mind?" He suspected that he had misheard.
Yi Qinglan asked, "Since this merit is Li Ran's, why should we place it on Lin Langyue?"
Sheng Ye swallowed his saliva. "Daoist Yi, don't you wish to suppress Li Ran?"
Yi Qinglan frowned and said, "Why do I have to suppress him?"
Right now, what she wished for the most was for Li Ran to quickly become an Emperor. That way, Lin Langyue's path of immortality would be smooth.
Sheng Ye even let Lin Langyue suppress Li Ran?
Wasn't this just adding to the chaos!
Sheng Ye reminded, "Don' t forget, Daoist Yi, this Li Ran is from the Devil Dao…"
Yi Qinglan spoke righteously. “What happened to the Devil Dao? Although Li Ran was a Devil, he was also a human. How could Emperor Sheng take away his honor? This was a huge matter for the human race. I hope that you can handle it impartially!"
Sheng Ye stared blankly at her, feeling that something was wrong.
What was going on?
How could this Daoist nun help Li Ran!
Sheng Zhixia was also stunned.
Daoist Yi was too upright!
Sheng Ye's throat twitched. "Then Daoist Yi means to write down all the Devils?"
Yi Qinglan shook her head, "Others can be ignored. Anyway, Li Ran must be in it!"
Sheng Ye covered his face.
What is this called!
