Chapter 204: Situ Qian’s Banquet (2/2)

Just as Mo Wuji was considering where he could undergo some closed door cultivation as he awaited Ju Qijian’s arrival, Mo Qi hastily brought a team of people to find him.

Mo Wuji stared quizzically at Mo Qi’s urgency, ”You’re a prefecture lord, and now’s the key moment to regain the Northern Qin throne. Why did you come find me?”

”Reporting to Supreme Emperor. I’m sure that will be no problems encountered to regain the Northern Qin throne. But I just received some important news, the Ju Clan has an immortal master who had received Situ Qian’s invitation. He is currently in Rao Zhou,” Mo Qi said reverently.

I’ve actually become the Supreme Emperor? As Mo Wuji thought about how Mo Qi’s age was bigger than his, his mouth could not help but twitch a few times.

This question was immediately cast aside, ”You’re sure Ju Clan’s immortal master is in Rao Zhou?”

”Yes, he is definitely in Rao Zhou. I believe that Rao Zhou will soon receive the news about Luo An,” Mo Qi said resolutely.

Mo Wuji nodded his head in approval; Mo Qi had temporarily given up on his most important manner to deliver this report to Mo Wuji. One, was because of his humble attitude. Two, Mo Qi was also very sure that once Ju Qijian comes to Northern Qin, if Mo Wuji wasn’t here, everything he was doing was simply constructing buildings in the air.

”I understand. You don’t need to worry about the revival of the Ju Clan. Accept the Northern Qin with a peace of mind, and govern Northern Qin well.” Mo Wuji answered, He estimated that he would not take to long to get to Rao Zhou with his flying car.

”Yes, does the Supreme Emperor have anything else?” Mo Qi’s eyes flashed with glee, and he bowed down even lower.

After a brief moment of silence, Mo Wuji said, ”As I said previously, lower the taxes. The citizens’ happiness is the real happiness. Also, if I must give another bit of advice, I would advice the advancement of technology. Other states do not value technological talent, so you can use some effort to pull them over. At the same time, revamp the education system. Teach children to learn about technology starting from preschool.”

”Mo Qi understands.” Mo Qi hurriedly replied.

Originally, he was intending to be like many other prefectures in Cheng Yu State. Expand the production of ores and herbs, thereafter, use the gold to purchase large scale arrays, flying beast carriages, etc.

Now, Mo Wuji had suggested the advancement of technology, so he decided to listen to the Supreme Emperor. This prefecture lord position was given to him by Mo Wuji, so he would leave the Supreme Emperor’s position to Mo Wuji. If the Supreme Emperor’s descendants were to return, he would immediately hand over the throne.

…

Ever since the meeting with the Xing Han Emperor, Situ Qian was always filled with worry. He never expected for Mo Tiancheng’s grandson to enter the Heaven Seeking Palace. The Heaven Seeking Palace, to a state lord like him, was simply something from legends.

Fortunately, there was also some good news. The Ju Clan, which he supported, also had someone in the Heaven Seeking Palace, and an inner disciple at that. According to Ju Qijian, that Mo Wuji should be merely a Spirit Building cultivator, there was no need for him to worry.

Even so, Situ Qian’s heart was restless. Ever since he returned, he was especially courteous towards the State Protector. The Cheng Yu State Protector was an Yuan Dan Stage expert. He shouldn’t face any difficulty with that Spirit Building Mo Wuji, right?

…

Rao Zhou City, Cheng Yu State, the Royal Palace.

At this moment, Situ Qian was hosting the State Protector, Zhu Kaifu, as well as Ju Qijian, who had received his invitation to Rao Zhou.

With Ju Qijian’s arrival, Situ Qian could finally be at ease. As long as Ju Qijian states his identity, his Cheng Yu State Protector, Zhu Kaifu, would not need to be afraid of Mo Wuji’s position as a Heaven Seeking Palace disciple.

”The Heaven Seeking Palace has always been an existence of my reverence. To be able to sit together and drink with a Heaven Seeking Palace inner disciple, is my, Zhu Kaifu’s, honour. Let me give a toast to Senior Ju!” Zhu Kaifu stood up and lifted his cup, speaking with a formal tone.

Don’t see him merely as an Yuan Dan Level 1, Earth Realm cultivator. He was an existence which was even above the state lord. But in front of a Heaven Seeking Palace disciple, he had to be courteous.

Ju Qijian laughed, ”Master Zhu, please take a seat. Talking about it, a branch of my Ju Clan is in the Northern Qin Prefecture, so there are things I will need to rely on Master Zhu. Let’s not be overly formal.”

Zhu Kaifu patted his chest, ”Rest assured Senior Ju. The Northern Qin Ju Clan’s business, will be my, Zhu Kaifu’s, business.”

Even though Ju Qijian’s age was much smaller than his, and he heard from Situ Qian that Ju Qijian’s cultivation was also lower than his, Zhu Kaifu still chose to call him ”Senior Ju”.

”Good.” Ju Qijian downed his cup of wine. Thereafter, he continued, ”Master Zhu doesn’t need to worry about that measly outer disciple. He is merely an ant at the Spirit Building Stage. If he does come over, Master Zhu can just go ahead and kill him. I, Ju Qijian, will take responsibility.”
