Chapter 91 Junior Sect Master of Xuanzong
"This is a matter of great importance to the nation, and of course I must participate. Not only will I participate, but I will also cheer on the Jun Dynasty." Jun Yan smiled, and his words were so well-received that the other party could not find any fault with them.
As a prince of the dynasty, isn't it only right that he comes to cheer on the dynasty?
Shanxi was unwilling to set off, after all, the younger generation of the Shanxi family still needed her care.
However, seeing that she didn't move, Jun Yan got up and came to her table: "If you don't want to go up, then I'll come down."
He didn't care where he sat, as long as he could sit with Sun Hee.
Shanxi: "..."
The Seventh Prince seems a bit slow-witted and foolish, but he's also somewhat endearing.
"This is delicious, you should try it." Junyan said, taking the initiative to pick up his chopsticks and put a crystal pastry on Shanxi's plate.
The dessert was made with sweet potato starch. After steaming, it became translucent and looked very appealing.
Seeing this, Shan Yurou, who was excited and proud just a second ago, couldn't laugh anymore.
Seeing how kind the Seventh Prince was to Shanxi, even condescending to sit below her and serving her food, Shan Yurou felt a little uncomfortable.
Especially when she sat next to the Crown Prince, she not only had to maintain a gentle and dignified demeanor and pay attention to her words and actions at all times, but also had to peel grapes for the Crown Prince from time to time and pour wine and tea for him, just like a palace maid serving others, without any of the grace of a Crown Princess.
Just when everyone thought the seating arrangement was settled, a strange light suddenly appeared from the edge of the sky.
The light initially appeared as a faint wisp, gently spreading across the horizon like a thin veil. But in the blink of an eye, it quickly grew bright and dazzling, and as it slowly revealed its true form, it instantly illuminated the entire sky.
A colossal spirit ship emerged from the churning clouds and sailed straight toward the palace.
The scale of this spirit boat was beyond imagination. It was like a huge mobile palace, with a hull that was tens of feet long and several feet wide. The tall sails fluttered in the wind.
A faint halo surrounded the spirit boat, enveloping the entire vessel.
The emperor was greatly shocked by this sight. His eyes widened like copper bells, filled with disbelief and terror.
He hurriedly stood up, nearly knocking over the wine glass in front of him in his haste.
"Your Majesty, please be careful." A eunuch rushed forward to help him.
The emperor's hands unconsciously gripped the armrests of the dragon throne tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and his body trembling slightly.
The spirit boat was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it had already landed in front of everyone.
"This...this is..." The emperor was shocked and bewildered.
It wasn't until the Crown Prince urgently reminded him from the side, "Father, it's Emperor Xuanzong, it's Emperor Xuanzong!"
The crown prince's voice carried a hint of excitement and exhilaration.
Following the Crown Prince's words, everyone's gaze returned to the spirit boat.
On the hull of the ship, a huge character "玄" was clearly engraved. The characters were strong and powerful, exuding a mysterious and majestic aura.
Emperor Xuanzong?
Upon hearing those two words, the emperor felt dizzy and his legs went weak, almost causing him to kneel down.
His body swayed a few times, but fortunately the eunuch beside him reacted quickly and stepped forward to support him.
The emperor's face turned deathly pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. His heart was filled with fear and awe.
You must know that Xuanzong is the number one sect in the world, with unparalleled strength and countless experts within its ranks. Any disciple it sends out possesses earth-shattering abilities.
Now that Xuanzong's spirit boat has suddenly appeared, no one knows why it came!
"Father, could it be Elder Liu?" Shan Yuru asked excitedly, grasping Shan Mingyuan's hand.
It's Elder Liu! It must be Elder Liu who's come to see her!
Perhaps Elder Liu came here specifically to cheer her on!
Shan Mingyuan was also filled with excitement. He never dreamed that Elder Liu would go to such lengths for Yu Rou. Such an honor was truly unique!
Just as the emperor was filled with anxiety, wondering what Xuanzong's purpose was in coming here, a flash of light appeared on the spirit boat, and three figures appeared out of thin air before slowly drifting down to the ground.
The newcomer was none other than Xuanmingzi, the sect leader of the Xuanzong sect.
Behind him were two elders who looked like immortals, exuding a refined and otherworldly aura.
After landing, Xuanmingzi scanned the crowd with sharp eyes before settling on Shanxi. He smiled slightly and nodded.
"May I ask who you three are?" The emperor bowed respectfully, about to kneel and pay his respects, when he heard Xuanmingzi say, "I have heard that your country is holding a grand competition, gathering talents from all over the world. I, the sect leader, have come to observe."
Upon hearing this, the emperor trembled with excitement. His previously pale face instantly turned rosy, and his eyes gleamed with wild joy.
So you came to watch the game?
Is his competition with the Southern Dynasty that famous?
Has the news even reached the ears of the Xuanzong Sect Master?
The emperor hurriedly stepped forward, raised his hands high, and said incoherently, "The esteemed...patriarch's presence is truly a blessing for our dynasty and an honor for me!"
"Quickly, please take a seat! Someone, bring me my highest and most honored seat for the sect leader to sit on!"
A short while later, several eunuchs carefully carried a chair made of thousand-year-old sandalwood and slowly placed it in the center of the main hall.
The emperor stepped forward personally and respectfully gestured to Xuan Mingzi, "Sect Master, this is the seat of honor that I have specially prepared for you. I hope you will not find it offensive."
Xuanmingzi smiled slightly, a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.
He waved his hand gently and said, "Your Majesty is too kind, but I cannot sit in the seat of honor."
Upon hearing this, the emperor was stunned. The smile on his face froze instantly, and his eyes were filled with doubt and unease. He quickly asked, "What does the sect leader mean? Could it be that I have failed to entertain you properly and displeased you?"
Xuanmingzi shook his head: "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand. If that senior doesn't sit down, I dare not take a seat."
Upon hearing this, everyone present exchanged bewildered glances, wondering who this highly respected figure was.
The emperor was also bewildered. He looked around but did not find any particularly outstanding people, which made him even more puzzled.
Just then, Xuanmingzi suddenly turned around and looked toward a corner of the main hall.
Following his gaze, everyone saw that the person sitting there was none other than Shanxi and Junyan.
Could it be that they came for the Seventh Prince's banquet?
Shanxi and Junyan, who were being watched by Xuanmingzi, sat there quietly, their expressions indifferent, as if they didn't care about anything happening around them.
Xuanmingzi, seemingly unperturbed, strode up to Shanxi, bowed respectfully, and said, "This junior, Xuanmingzi, the sect leader of Xuanzong, cordially invites you to take a seat."
This action left everyone present speechless and incredulous.
They never imagined that the dignified sect leader of Xuanzong, the number one person in the world, would actually refer to himself as a junior in front of two juniors.
How old are these two?
