On December 12, 1342 in the Hongyuan calendar during the Black Glory Immortal Dynasty, Princess Xi, the youngest and most beloved daughter of the Hongyuan Immortal Emperor, held her coming-of-age ceremony.
It was not yet twelve o'clock, and the huge square at the main gate of the palace was a little crowded. As the only immortal dynasty in the Black Glow Star Domain, the Black Glow Immortal Dynasty possessed supreme status. As early as a hundred years ago, many major forces and sects had begun to prepare for the thousand-year-old coming-of-age ceremony of the youngest daughter of the Hongyuan Immortal Emperor.
As representatives of various forces and talented young people arrived, at exactly twelve o'clock, the current emperor of the Black Hui Immortal Dynasty, Emperor Hei Hui, slowly walked out of the palace attic. He had a disdainful look, sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, and there was a sense of majesty in his aura.
"Everyone is welcome to attend the coming-of-age ceremony of my daughter Xi..."
After Emperor Hongyuan of the Black Glow Immortal Dynasty came out, he naturally gave a long and polite speech. Li Ran felt a little bored listening to it and even wanted to sleep while standing.
However, there was one thing that slightly aroused Li Ran's interest, that is, Emperor Hongyuan planned to abdicate after a hundred years, and the heir he chose was Princess Xi.
In the magazine "Bai Lan Cultivation World", some things about the succession of the emperor of the immortal dynasty in the cultivation world were also briefly talked about. In this cultivation world where strength is the main factor, although there are many emperors who choose their most capable descendants as heirs, the vast majority of them are nepotism and choose their favorite children to succeed them.
What was a little different about the previous Heihui Dynasty was that they used to choose capable successors, but this Immortal Emperor directly chose his most beloved youngest daughter Xi as his successor.
After Emperor Hongyuan resolutely chose his daughter Xi as his successor despite the opposition of his ministers, Li Ran sensitively discovered that many people were unstable, which must have directly or indirectly damaged their interests.
Except for some major or important matters, the discipline of the Black Glory Immortal Dynasty is still very loose. After the Hongyuan Immortal Emperor finished his speech, the people around him spoke in a low voice.
"What's going on? Why did Your Majesty suddenly change his mind?"
"Yes, according to convention, Emperor Hongyuan had to reign for at least 10,000 years. Why did he abdicate after only 100 years?"
Li Ran could tell from these people that most of them were not interested in who would be the next Immortal Emperor, but were interested in why Immortal Emperor H Hongyuan abdicated so quickly.
"Everyone, there's nothing wrong with Princess Xi being the next Immortal Emperor, but don't you realize that today is Princess Xi's coming-of-age ceremony?"
"Well, I hadn't remembered that, according to the tradition of our Black Glow Immortal Dynasty, every princess would throw a bouquet at her coming-of-age ceremony and choose a prince consort to be engaged to on the spot."
"Suck it, this is interesting!"
Li Ran lost all sleepiness after hearing this. This was very interesting. Doesn't this mean that becoming a prince consort means becoming the husband of the next Immortal Emperor? Wow, tut tut, tut. But when he heard the next sentence, he felt nothing at all.
"I hope I'm not chosen. I heard there have been a few female Immortal Emperors in the past, but the ones who got engaged never ended up well. Even if they did get married, I'd just be one of the Immortal Emperor's three thousand concubines..."
When Li Ran heard this, he imagined the scene of green grassland and shuddered. He would never dare to become a prince consort even if he was beaten to death.
The auspicious time has arrived. Not long after, a graceful figure walked out from behind the Hongyuan Immortal Emperor. She was beautiful, and in the world of cultivation, no one who practiced cultivation was bad-looking, and they all had an ethereal temperament. After billions of years of genetic modification by the royal family of the Black Hui Immortal Dynasty, there was no need to say much about Princess Xi's appearance.
But for some reason, Li Ran always felt a strange feeling coming from deep inside her body, which made his heart beat faster.
Just as Li Ran was looking at Princess Xi, Princess Xi was also attracted by Li Ran's gaze as she walked up, as if he had a special charm.
"What the hell? He's not really into me, is he? I don't want to be a green grass on the green grassland..." Li Ran muttered.
There was a hint of eagerness deep in Princess Xi's eyes, as if she had him in her grasp, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
After Princess Xi came up, she naturally opened her red lips and said a few words. Then, amid a burst of salutes and the excitement of the crowd, she took out a colorful hydrangea.
"It seems that I underestimated these people!" Seeing many excited young people, Li Ran expressed that he really admired them for being able to endure the humiliation of having green grasslands above their heads.
A real man can bend and stretch!
Amidst the excitement, Princess Xi's spiritual energy suddenly turned, and the colorful hydrangea in her hand became brighter and more beautiful, emitting rays of light of different colors.
"Um?"
When these colorful rays were emitted, Li Ran felt a little drowsy. He felt as if he had been awake for three days and three nights, and his eyelids were drooping.
Fortunately, just when he fell into a deep sleep, the supreme power in his body automatically jumped out and completely devoured the power that hypnotized him, and isolated Li Ran's body from the outside world, which made Li Ran wake up.
"suck……"
Li Ran took a deep breath inwardly, and then glanced at the crowd around him. He found that everyone around him, even the Hongyuan Immortal Emperor next to Princess Xi above, was hypnotized.
"Boy, you're so lucky! I didn't expect to meet someone from the demon world right after you came out!"
Before Li Ran could feel shocked, Xiaolong's gloating came to her mind.
"Xiaolong, what the hell is going on? Stop mocking me!" Li Ran had the urge to tie a knot with the Nine-Colored Little Dragon. He always gloated over other people's misfortunes, which was completely inappropriate for the occasion and had an extremely bad impact.
"I told you, we met someone from the demon world!" Xiaolong was still fishing on a small island in the sea, and his voice was extremely lazy.
"People from the demon world? Are they demon cultivators?" Li Ran naturally had some understanding of demon cultivators. Demon cultivators generally refer to those who do not use conventional means to harm the lives of others to improve their own strength.
"Of course not. Demon cultivators are demon cultivators, and demons are demons. Compared to demons, demon cultivators are nothing but fakes!" Xiaolong obviously looked down on demon cultivators.
"Boy, you are in big trouble now. I see that this succubus has taken a fancy to you. Why don't you give in to him? Let me tell you, every succubus is very rare and of the best quality!" Xiaolong said with a wicked smile.
"Don't slander me. This demon creature doesn't sound easy to get along with. What should I do now? The cultivators who are much stronger than me here have been hypnotized and fallen asleep. Moreover, the imperial city of the Immortal Dynasty is a no-fly zone. The Great Teleportation Talisman doesn't work at all! How about pretending..." Li Ran had a bad feeling.
"Hypnosis? Who told you this is hypnosis? This is soul enslavement. Look at the people around you. They appear to be hypnotized, but in fact their main consciousness is permanently sunk. They have lost their self forever. It's no different from being dead."
