The Immortal Picking Saint was meditating and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. At this moment, he was in high spirits. Feeling his young body, his mentality seemed to have become younger as well, as if he had returned to ten thousand years ago.
His spiritual sense can cover most of Cangzhou, and he can know anything he wants to know.
Naturally, he also noticed that Mu Lifeng and Lu Zhibai stopped at the door.
Although he didn't know what they communicated with their spiritual consciousness, the Immortal Picking Saint felt that this might be disadvantageous to him.
He said, "Zhibai, come in."
Lu Zhibai said goodbye to Mu Lifeng and turned to enter the hall, bowing respectfully, "Master."
The Immortal-Picking Saint's imposing presence was very heavy, pressing down on Lu Zhibai, and he asked warily, "What did he say to you?"
"Asking me why I got to you, Master, faster than him, I guess it's just out of curiosity." Lu Zhibai answered truthfully.
The Immortal-Picking Saint could not see anything unusual about Lu Zhibai and nodded slowly.
"I see. He seems to be concerned about my affairs."
Lu Zhibai replied obediently, "I guess it's because Master is in such a position now that he has to be careful with him. But I don't understand why Master came to Cangzhou instead of Zhongzhou. Zhongzhou is the best choice."
Almost all emperors in history achieved this by walking through the imperial palace in Zhongzhou.
No one in the entire Jiuzhou Continent can be a match for the Immortal Saint, so it is easy for him to go to the Imperial Palace.
Mu Lingyun couldn't stop it.
But the master chose Cangzhou.
"This place is very good. There are Red Sea's troops here, and Qingzhou is not far away from Cangzhou. Further ahead, there are a large number of Mu Lingyun's troops. This place is now a military fortress." said the Immortal Picking Saint.
Lu Zhibai didn't expect that the Immortal Picking Saint was well aware of the current situation in Jiuzhou. It seemed that he had been prepared for it for a long time.
He didn't come here on a whim, he had thought about it a long time ago.
However, even if it was a military fortress, there was no need for him to make such a trip.
But Lu Zhibai didn't ask these questions out loud, and he soon knew the answer.
The Immortal Saint's Banquet will be held in seven days, and during this period cultivators from all corners of the world will gather here to pay homage to the new Emperor.
Sheng Mingyue from the Sheng family has also arrived.
Mu Lingjiu hasn't come to visit him these days and has been busy with his own things.
The first thing Sheng Mingyue did when she arrived in Cangzhou was not to pay homage to the new emperor, but to find Mu Lingjiu.
Seeing Mu Lingjiu and Chen Lin coming out of a forest, Sheng Mingyue sneered.
"Have you become a saint?"
Mu Lingjiu nodded, "Yeah"
"You tricked me into not becoming an emperor, yet you actually practiced diligently. Was it just to catch up with me? Did you deliberately deceive me?"
Mu Lingjiu shrugged, "If you say so, then so be it."
"What do you mean by what I say is true? Tell me what's going on. You lied to people, how dare you have such an attitude?" Sheng Mingyue was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
She was really angry and dissatisfied with Mu Lingjiu's attitude.
Seeing her anxiously jumping up and down, Mu Lingjiu smiled and said, "If I say Ming Kong is dead, would you believe it?"
Sheng Mingyue looked at Mu Lingjiu hesitantly, "Do you think I'm stupid?"
Mingkong is now alive and well and has become an emperor, but Mu Lingjiu is still lying with his eyes open.
"Have you ever heard of taking over a body?"
"What? Don't tell me that Emperor Cheng can still possess another body? Or, Mingkong was possessed before Emperor Cheng."
"Think about it carefully." Mu Lingjiu lowered his voice, "You know."
Sheng Mingyue frowned, thinking, if it was really a possession, then what level of cultivation must the other party have? Where on earth could this old monster have done this?
"Don't think that what you say is true. I need to test it out."
If that person is really Mingkong, then there is nothing to say. But if not, then who is that person?
Sheng Mingyue left with a worried look on her face.
The maid next to Sheng Mingyue was furious, "I think she is just talking nonsense, just to deceive you."
Sheng Mingyue was not in a hurry. "Just go and take a look and you'll know. Mu Lingjiu is not the kind of person who talks nonsense."
The little maid curled her lips and said, "If you ask me, you two have a good relationship."
Sheng Mingyue remained silent. Her relationship with Mu Lingjiu wasn't really bad, but to say it was okay didn't seem good either.
We just knew each other for many years and understood each other's character.
Sheng Mingyue quickly came to pay her respects to the Immortal Emperor.
She raised her head and looked at the man in front of her. He was bathed in Buddha's light and was extremely dazzling.
It is bright and empty.
"Sheng Mingyue pays homage to the Immortal Emperor."
The Immortal Picking Saint looked at Sheng Mingyue with a cold expression, without any emotion, and just nodded slightly.
Sheng Mingyue smiled, "Master Mingkong, why are you so cold? We agreed before that if you become emperor, you will make me your empress. Does that still count?"
"Nonsense." The Immortal-Picking Saint shot a stream of spiritual energy at Sheng Mingyue.
Sheng Mingyue quickly dodged, and a huge hole was created where she had just stood.
Sheng Mingyue frowned and looked at the Immortal Saint on the stage. He just had an indifferent and unremitting expression.
Sheng Mingyue was still not sure whether this person was really Mingkong. She only knew that her previous test had failed.
"It's just a joke. Master Mingkong was never so irritable before." Sheng Mingyue said with a smile.
At this moment, Bai Wenjin was also standing at the door. Bai Wenjin came to lick the new emperor, but he didn't expect to see this scene.
Bai Wenjin looked at Sheng Mingyue with resentment.
"Why...why are you here?" In fact, Bai Wenjin wanted to ask why Sheng Mingyue did not become the emperor, but Mingkong became it instead.
But with Mingkong here, Bai Wenjin definitely wouldn't dare to ask this question.
After he finished asking, he bowed to Mingkong.
"I, Bai Wenjin of the Bai family, pay my respects to the Great Emperor Zhaixian."
The Immortal Picking Saint nodded slowly and waved his hand, "Everyone, leave."
Bai Wenjin gritted his teeth and looked at Sheng Mingyue hatefully.
Sheng Mingyue was puzzled, as if she had done something wrong to him.
After they left the house, Bai Wenjin asked, "Fairy Sheng, when will you return our Bai family's Divine Source Stone to us?"
Sheng Mingyue smiled. "So that's why. You said you would support me. Now that you've given it to me, it's mine. Why would I want it back?"
"You...you haven't become the Spiritual Emperor yet, why should I support you?" Bai Wenjin asked.
He originally thought that he could invest in a spiritual emperor, but now he has no chance, so he is naturally very unhappy.
Sheng Mingyue was not panicked and smiled calmly.
"I didn't force you to do that. You did it voluntarily, right?"
Bai Wenjin frowned. He did it voluntarily.
But... so many divine source stones almost drained the Bai family's resources.
"You must return the Divine Source Stone to me no matter what, otherwise..."
"What else?" Sheng Mingyue glanced at Bai Wenjin, "Are you going to attack my Sheng family?"
Bai Wenjin immediately stopped talking. How could he dare to attack the Sheng family? Even if he dared, he couldn't beat them.
He was so angry that he bit his back teeth to pieces.
