Palace, Qiming Hall.

Emperor Tianzhao returned to his golden throne alone, looking into the distance without saying a word.

From his seat, he could see the center of the City of Destiny, the Destiny Square.

And there, a majestic sculpture of Emperor Destiny, towering into the clouds!

The entire Shenqiu, and even the whole world, has no video data of the Great Emperor of Destiny.

No one dares to use Destiny's portrait casually, unless they are tired of living.

There are only two places to see the face of the Great Emperor of Heaven.

One is the Academy. As the second seat in history, Destiny has its own sculpture.

Second, it is the imperial city that has witnessed the glorious history of Emperor Tianming.

It was the national teacher Zhong Xuyou who was in charge of supervising the completion of the statue.

Emperor Tianzhao had been accustomed to the existence of this statue since he could remember.

But in recent years, he didn't know why, the more he looked at the statue, the more inexplicable discomfort he felt.

"Ugh……"

With a long sigh, Emperor Tianzhao seemed to be talking to himself: "Symbols, symbols... What is the purpose of everything that Gu does..."

He reached out and stroked his imperial chair, "What's the point of sitting in this position?"

Inside the hall, there was silence for a while.

Emperor Tianzhao looked a little helpless and looked up at the beam.

"Lao Lian, if you don't eat, you can't talk to me? I know I won't let you in, just to talk to you."

But he glanced at it and found that there was no one on the beam at all?

"Here..."

A vague voice came from behind Emperor Tianzhao.

Emperor Tianzhao was startled and turned around in a hurry, only to find Laolian holding a silver tray in his hand, eating the tiaotou cake inside.

The three were clasped together, stuffed into the mouth, and tasted deliciously.

"How many times have I said it, don't suddenly appear behind alone", Emperor Tianzhao covered his heart.

"I've been standing here since just now. You lost your soul and didn't see it. You still blame me?" Lao Lian felt wronged.

Emperor Tianzhao waved his hand, "That's it, you eat first, and then you can finish eating."

Lao Lian was not polite, he sat directly on the table and ate the remaining three.

Emperor Tianzhao frowned, but said nothing.

After Laolian finished eating, Emperor Tianzhao asked, "Baines is here, won't you go see him?"

"See what you see, it was his teacher who saved me back then, not that kid," Lao Lian said indifferently.

"Listen to what he said, Sword God didn't put Gu in his eyes at all, he was just afraid of the Emperor of Heaven, so he wouldn't be detrimental to Gu... What do you think?"

Lao Lian sucked the bean paste on his fingers and said, "That's how it is. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't be too lazy to protect you."

"What do you mean? You are also looking for it. No one in the world dares to kill someone alone, so you agreed to be this dark guard?"

Old Lian smiled and said, "Part of it is because of this. Besides, you won't ask me to kill people, and you will give me sweets, which is good."

"After so many years, you have pursued this?"

Emperor Tianzhao asked a little unwillingly: "You never thought about stepping into the realm of the creator and having a good fight with the sword gods?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Lao Lian suddenly fell back and forth with laughter and almost rolled off the table.

"What are you laughing at?" Tian Zhaodi was a little dissatisfied.

Lao Lian wiped the tears from his laughter, "My Majesty, you look down on me too much."

"Do you really think that what the Emperor Sword is? It is the most recognized weapon, and it should only exist in the legendary power of the Emperor."

"Furthermore, I also watched the video in Aslan. That guy... 80% to 90%, is a 'dragon snake' that can only be cultivated into the Nine Tribulations Azure Dragon Divine Beast!"

"Emperor sword plus dragon snake, he can kill anyone, but you can't kill him!"

"These two almost impossible sky-defying abilities are concentrated in one person. Do you know what that means?"

"Even if your ancestor of Destiny did not know **** him, it would be restricted and banished at most."

"Do you think that when I step into the realm of creation, I can compete with Sword God? You are not making me laugh, or you are asking me to go to death!"

Emperor Tianzhao's face paled a little, "Really so powerful? He can kill the world, but the world can't kill him? Isn't it a rogue?"

"Emperor Sword and Qinglong, with any kind of talent, are easy to be envied by others, and there are definitely not a few people who want him to die."

"Sword God can cultivate all the way to the realm of creation, his experience is definitely not what ordinary people can imagine."

Lao Lian said: "He can survive, it shows that he is really capable, not a rogue, let alone luck."

Emperor Tianzhao frowned and said, "You mean... Gu can only respect him and serve him without offending him in the slightest?"

"I advise you to put away some of your thoughts... let alone being polite to the Sword God, it's not ashamed."

"The Eternal Emperor personally came to congratulate him. He is a ruthless character who hardly even looks at the temple!"

Lao Lian sighed and said, "Actually, I think Yu Shengyan is quite right. You, you should abdicate and go to practice, live a few more years, and find me more sweets to eat."

Emperor Tianzhao was silent for a while, and then asked, "What would happen if the Sword God really wanted to kill someone alone one day?"

Laolian scratched his neck, a little embarrassed.

Just as Emperor Zhao was about to give up that day, Lao Lian said, "If I don't die, I'll keep you alive."

Emperor Tianzhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief, "Enough."

At this moment, a notification sound came from outside.

"Your Majesty, the Protector of the Kingdom asks to see you."

"Pang Xun?"

Emperor Tianzhao frowned, "This old man has been in seclusion for so many years. When he was invited to the ceremony of worshipping the gods, he couldn't go out. Why did he take the initiative to enter the palace today?"

Emperor Tianzhao was about to say something to Lao Lian, but Lao Lian had already disappeared again.

"Let him in."

Emperor Tianzhao sat back on the chair, his face sinking like water.

Soon, a tall, but very refined-looking man walked steadily into the hall.

"My minister Pang Xun, I have seen Your Majesty!" A gentle smile appeared on Pang Xun's arrogant face.

"Emperor Protector, I haven't seen you for a while, why do you have time today to see Gu?" Emperor Tianzhao asked with a smile.

"The old minister is really ashamed. I came to see Your Majesty today to implore Your Majesty to agree to one thing."

"Prince Protector is polite, but it's okay to say something."

Pang Xun smiled and said: "The old minister is a military officer, and he is especially fond of swords. This time I heard that the dragon hunt has the participation of the emperor sword god... The old minister is bold and wants to participate in the dragon hunt."

Emperor Tianzhao looked surprised: "The protector of the country stays at home, but the news is well-informed."

"The old minister also heard what the housekeeper said, and he was really itchy, so he came to beg His Majesty to agree." Pang Xun looked embarrassed.

Emperor Tianzhao smiled, "It's just a trivial matter. The protector of the country claims to be the first swordsman in the world, and it is only natural to go to meet the Sword God for a while."

"Don't dare, the Sword God is the creator and the emperor's sword. It can't be compared. It's just... I want to discuss some cultivation problems at close range," Pang Xun said humbly.

"Guo knows, then the protector of the country will go with Gu. We, the monarch and the minister, haven't gone out to play together for a long time," Tian Zhaodi said with a smile.

Pang Xun was stunned for a moment, then immediately overjoyed, knelt down to thank him.

"Old minister is honored!"

Emperor Tianzhao looked at Pang Xun kneeling in the hall, but there was a gloomy look in his eyes...
