Chapter 332: Divine Cannon

The new human emperor!
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor had a somewhat complicated gaze, and a murderous thought even arose in his heart. As the human emperor of the previous generation, Village Chief didn't care about fame and fortune nor did he desire power; his goal was much further away. He didn't set his gaze on the power of the mortal world, thus he was respected by everyone.
However, will Qin Mu, this new human emperor, be like Village Chief?
Human emperors held massive power, and it surpassed even that of Emperor Yanfeng. Their charisma was even higher than that of Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor as well!
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor had gone to Little Jade Capital before and knew some secrets, like the power of the human emperor. He and Emperor Yanfeng wanted to unite all the sects and sacred grounds in the world, but there were not many that would submit to them.
However, it was possible for the human emperor.
He could make the sects submit to him. The power of the human emperor wasn't won through a fight, but was instead given to him by all of the big sects and sacred grounds!
Even if it was Little Jade Capital, if they knew Qin Mu was the new human emperor, they would probably support him as well.
If Qin Mu got drunk on power, he could snatch the throne of Eternal Peace, completely destroying the great cause of Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor and Emperor Yanfeng!
”If you and Emperor Yanfeng fail, the human emperor will still be around, giving the hope of a hope for a comeback,” Village Chief said.
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor's heart shook, and he pulled back his gaze. ”I won't fail.”
Village Chief smiled. ”I hope you won't fail. I don't want Mu'er to suffer.”
Qin Mu walked over so the two of them closed their mouth and stopped talking.
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor's gaze landed on the youth again, and there was a weird feeling in his heart. This fifteen or sixteen years old boy in front of him could be said to hold the greatest authority in the world yet he knew nothing about it.
Qin Mu was the current Heavenly Devil Cult Master, Imperial Academician of Imperial College, the successor of Disabled Elderly Village, but his greatest identity to date was the current human emperor.
His authority was even higher than that of the emperor and Imperial Preceptor, but Qin Mu didn't seem to know what it meant, which was really strange.
Cripple caught Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor's expression and was secretly pleased. 'Imperial Preceptor probably doesn't know that Mu'er has the treasure that symbolizes the imperial power of Ling Family. If he knew Emperor's Disk was with Qin Mu, he would probably jump up and down in fury.'
Cripple had handed Emperor's Disk to Qin Mu for fun. He had studied that jade disk for dozens of years, but he could never comprehend the marvel of it, so it was useless for him to keep it.
However, he did know what Emperor's Disk symbolized. This jade disk was granted to Ling Family by a god which represented a god giving imperial power to them. It was said Nine Dragons Monarch Technique of Ling Family was comprehended from Emperor's Disk.
When it was stolen, it was quite a huge incident, but it was suppressed by Emperor Yanfeng so no outsiders knew.
No one would thus expect that this Emperor's Disk would actually be in Qin Mu's hands!
With Emperor's Disk and Human Emperor's Seal, Qin Mu was the person with the most authority in this world, yet he knew nothing about it.
'If this foolish boy learned of this, he would definitely be shocked to the point he couldn't close his mouth!' This thought pleased Cripple.
Assistant Minister of Ministry of Works Shan Youxin walked over and greeted Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor before saying to Qin Mu in a low voice, ”Cult Master, the cannons in the flying ship need to be repaired after the huge battle. Can I invite Cult Master to go over and have a look?”
”Your forging skills aren't any inferior to mine, so why do you need me to go over?” Qin Mu asked in bewilderment.
”There are problems with the formation markings in the cannon barrel. After the cannon is activated for eight-nine times, the barrel becomes red-hot, and the formation marking in the cannon gets disturbed, causing the power of the formation to decrease drastically and even blow up.”
Shan Youxin was Heavenly Works Hall Master, so he quickly led the way in front while saying, ”While fighting with Barbarian Di Empire this time, over a dozen cannons have already exploded and over a hundred divine arts practitioners died from that. The formation markings of these cannons were designed by Hall of Heavenly Works and Hall of Array Elements together. I think it might be caused by the weariness of the black gold, it might not be able to handle the strain…”
Qin Mu shook his head. ”I don't think it's the weariness of black gold. It should be problems with the formation that caused thermal decay. Let me go and take a look.”
”Thermal decay?” Shan Youxin's eyes lit up, and he praised, ”It's possible! But the design from Hall of Array Elements is perfect, I'm afraid it would be hard to improve it.”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor raised his eyebrows when he saw the two walking away. ”Cult Master actually knows the path of forging treasures so well that even Assistant Minister Shan needs to consult him!” he said in astonishment.
Cripple smiled. ”Mu'er learned to forge before.”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor took a glance at him and remembered how this shameless old thief had shat on his bed and peed in his teapot, causing his face to become slightly green. Furthermore, the picture of Sword God's back had also been stolen by him!
Qin Mu and Shan Youxin came onto a flying ship and saw numerous officials from Ministry of Works hurrying to repair the damaged parts on the ship. There were a few cannons that had exploded, and there were still some bloodstains on the barrels of the cannons.
