C191 (1/2)
The imperial court was in complete silence, regardless of whether it was the experienced generals or the civil officials who did not know how to cultivate, they were all speechless when they were struck by Zhou Tong's sword.
Looking at the Master Grade armor in Zhou Tong's hands, Chen Pu swallowed his saliva, not knowing if he should extend his hand to receive it.
”General Chenpu, please accept this.” Zhou Tong chuckled as he looked at Chen Pu, whose eyes were a little dull.
”Thank you Honorable Mo Li for your bestowment, Honorable Mo Li is a thousand years old!”
Receiving the armor with both of his hands, Chen Pu's face immediately became respectful, bowing and greeting Zhou Tong.
”Hehe, little fellow, you have done a good job in establishing your might.” General Yun Cang looked at Zhou Tong and laughed, then turned to Xue Tianya and Jian Chenzi, both of their faces were filled with joy.
Long before he entered the imperial court today, Zhou Tong had already decided in his heart. Even the armor that was gifted to Chen Pu was already prepared last night. And obviously, with Zhou Tong's actions, the civil and military officials in the imperial court now had a clear understanding of the situation. It was this Immortal Master Mo Li, and he was not a useless person.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the imperial hall had calmed down, Xue Tianya waved his hand, signaling Zhou Tong to leave, and then said: ”Alright, today, we have a second matter to announce, and that is Jian Chen's injuries.”
When he said that, the expressions of the officials in the palace became heavy. The matter of the Ripple Fairy attacking Barn Grand Ceremony, the injuries sustained by Jian Chenzi, all of the ministers had heard about it, but as for the blood poison left behind by Ripple Fairy, no one could do anything about it.
His gaze swept across the ministers who were in a difficult situation, a look of disappointment and frustration flashed across Xue Tianya's face, ”It looks like, all of my beloved officials do not have any good methods for this matter, compared to my beloved officials, they also know about it. Today, cloud song's traitors are eyeing me covetously, wanting to make my dynasty a thousand years old.
”Your Majesty, I am foolish, but at this moment, I am seeking for the various great sects for help. Although I have General Yun Cang, Adept Zixiao and the other strong warriors, but when it comes to the number of experts, there is a disparity between us and the eight great sects of Cloud Song Dynasty. If we can obtain the help of the other two great sects in the empire, I think the pressure will be greatly reduced.”
Among the civil and military officials, a thin, old civil servant came out and said.
”Mei Yong, this suggestion of yours is not bad.” Looking at the official, Xue Tianya nodded his head: ”However, in your opinion, how can I get the other two great sects to help me?”
”Brother Mei Yong, be careful.” Amongst the officials, the first official that was dressed in the Prime Minister's uniform suddenly interrupted, ”This old man has the honour to meet that Sect Leader Mo once, and the power backing him is not small. In that case, it's best if we don't provoke him.”
As he spoke, the Prime Minister looked at Zhou Tong carefully.
His name was Tang Xian, and as the Prime Minister, he had once participated in the Great Clan Competition with Xue Tianya, so he was clear that Zhou Tong was the Immortal Master Mo Li, and immediately interrupted Mei Yong.
”Lord Prime Minister, if you can get the Mo Sect's help, you will definitely get the Star Gauze Sword Sect's help as well. I also heard that the entire Sect Leader Mo family is in their sect, if that is the case.”
”Alright, I will consider this matter. You may leave.” Xue Tianya interrupted him with a cold shout and glanced at Zhou Tong without leaving a trace. Seeing that Zhou Tong did not change his expression, Xue Tianya finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Mo Sect? It was a terrifying force that had the great powers of the virtual immortal backing them. Even the Canglong Mountain s and other great sects wanted to get along with them, not to mention the Imperial Family.
However, Xue Tianya was also very wary of that Mo Sect.
