Chapter 420
420 The second emperor of the Lu family
Lu Chaohe had rushed to Jidu. He was so tired that he was about to die.
Two days ago, he was still on Yuyan mountain. He had been cultivating. All of a sudden, he received a message from his father, asking him to come to the Qi state immediately.
An hour after he received the message, Grandmaster Weiyun came to Yuyan mountain directly. He carried him and headed towards Qi country at full speed.
Even with the speed of a Dharma adept, running such a long distance without any regard for physical strength was a very difficult thing to do.
As for Lu Chaohe, he was a golden core cultivator after all. However, he was experiencing what it meant to be carsick at this moment.
Or was he flying?
In short, when he arrived in Jidu, he felt dizzy and uncomfortable.
However, he still forced himself to be alert.
His father had called him over in such a hurry, and even had Weiyun escort him all the way. It must be something very important.
However, when he forced himself to be alert and met his father, he was even more dumbfounded when he found out why he was called over.
“What? You want me to be Emperor? No, no, no!”
Lu Chaohe’s first reaction after recovering from his shock was to reject the offer.
This matter was too important, and the key was that he was not mentally prepared at all.
Just as he was about to reject her, Lu Qing interrupted him, ” “You’re not what? This is our family’s strategy!”
“Uh, hehe.”
Lu Chaohe choked. He smiled bitterly and said, ” “Father, Qianqian, I don’t know how to be the Emperor. It’s even the Qianqian of the Qi state, and I don’t even know that Kong Anyang Qianqian.”
He gave a few reasons in a row, but Lu Qing retorted impatiently, ” “I wonder what’s wrong with being the Emperor? Won’t you become one slowly? When your brother first became the Emperor, he was also inexperienced, but isn’t he doing well now? Besides, there is no one else suitable in the family except you. You can’t let a little guy from the ‘ting’ generation be the Emperor, right?”
“As for that Kong Anyang, I’ve already taken a look at him for you. He’s really pretty, and he’s not any worse off than your sister-in-law, Li Yanling!”
Lu Chaohe did not know whether to laugh or cry,”is this even a matter of being pretty, Qianqian?”
Lu Qing pondered for a moment before he said, ” his strength is not bad either. He’s already a nascent soul cultivator at such a young age. His talent is not bad. You still have to work hard to catch up to him.
“It’s not a matter of cultivation!”
“What?” Lu Qing was a little puzzled. as your father, I can’t help you test out the next step!
Lu Chaohe rolled his eyes.
However, Lu Chaohe had recovered from his initial confusion and unacceptable emotions. He had regained his calm and was able to think carefully about the various twists and turns in this matter.
He understood why his father wanted him to be the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom-it was not easy for the Lu family to take the Yan Kingdom to Annex others if they wanted to go further and develop faster. However, if they changed the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom directly and could protect the interests of many aristocratic families within the Qi Kingdom to a certain extent, then the resistance of these aristocratic families would not be too strong.
And without the aristocratic families, the great Qi Royal Kong clan was not a powerful Royal clan. Under such circumstances, they could not resist.
Of course, even so, it would be difficult to change the Emperor directly.
However, by pulling the Kong clan along, they could ensure that Kong Shang would become the retired emperor, Kong an yang would become the Empress, and with the addition of the Emperor of the Lu clan, the resistance might be slightly weaker.
As for how Lu Qing was going to convince Lu Chaohe, who was the disdainful Lu Chaohe and Kong Shang, who was willing to abdicate his position, it was hard to imagine.
All in all, at this point, Lu Chaohe knew that he had no choice but to go.
I’ll just take it that I’ve picked up a wife for free, Yingluo.
……
After chatting with Lu Chaohe, Lu Qing met with Weiyun.
When Weiyun saw Lu Qing, she still did not give him a good look.
Lu Qing laughed as he looked at the woman’s sullen face and silent expression. “Thank you for coming all the way here.”
“I don’t want to.”
“I have to thank you for having to stay in Jidu permanently for the next thirty years.”
“Can I refuse?”
Lu Qing gently shook his head and said, ” I’m not asking you to guard the place for nothing. Youyou should be able to sense that the entire world has changed, right? ”
Wei Yun was slightly stunned when he heard Lu Qing’s words.
Some time ago, she had indeed vaguely noticed that her progress seemed to have become faster when she was cultivating. Even the feeling of a bottleneck that had been stuck in her body in the past had loosened up a lot.
Previously, she had thought that it was an illusion, or that her cultivation base itself had some breakthrough and changes.
However, after hearing Lu Qing’s words, something did not seem right.
Lu Qing thought about how to phrase his words and told Weiyun some of the situations.
Of course, he wouldn’t tell them everything, but he did tell them about the increase in the upper limit of the world’s power.
Even though, up until now, Weiyun could not be considered completely one of them. Even though she was already convinced to a certain extent, it had not been a long time. It was impossible for Lu Qing to give her full trust immediately.
However, Lu Qing knew that he did not have much time given the current situation. He had to immediately use all the power he could use at hand to the best of his ability.
So, even for Weiyun, he decided to give her some trust.
After listening to Lu Qing’s story, Weiyun’s feelings were mainly happiness. She had indeed been stuck in her current realm for far too long. According to what Lu Qing had said, she should have a good chance of entering the seventh-tier Dharma stage.
After listening to such good news, Weiyun’s mood was much better. At least, it had washed away a lot of the unhappiness of having to guard the Qi Kingdom for the next 30 years.
“In addition, there’s something I want to give you. You can learn it, but you must swear on your soul that you will never teach it to others!”
“What’s so mysterious?”
“At this point, I won’t harm you.”
“Alright, Yingluo.”
A soul oath was no longer as powerful as it used to be when it came to cultivators at the materialization realm. To Lu Qing, the most important use of this soul oath was that if Weiyun broke the oath, Lu Qing would be able to sense it no matter where he was.
What Lu Qing wanted to pass to Weiyun this time was a cultivation technique.
‘Art of the ancient Golden Dragon’!
Lu Qing had never considered this matter before. Up until now, he had only passed on the immemorial series of cultivation techniques to three people. Weiwen, Wenen, and mingchao were all members of the Lu clan. Naturally, as long as they were qualified to cultivate, Lu Qing would definitely give them good things.
As for the outside world, it was not that there were no people who were suitable for the few primordial techniques that he had if they were to look at the Qingfeng sect or the Imperial court of the Yan Kingdom. However, Lu Qing had never thought of passing the divine-grade primordial techniques that he had to someone outside of his family.
There would definitely be some selfishness.
However, at the same time, considering the ‘great calamity’ in the future, Lu Qing felt that it was best to cultivate as many powerful experts as possible on his side.
Weiyun was actually a very good seedling. Her own strength was already considered pretty good. If she could obtain a divine-grade cultivation technique, her future development would definitely be better.
It was hard to say if she could reach the spirit sea stage for the time being. However, if she opened a few more world locks in the future, she might really be able to break through.
As for the immemorial Golden Dragon art, it was a divine-grade water-element cultivation method. Grandmaster Wei Yun himself was a cultivator with water heaven spiritual roots. The cultivation technique that she was originally cultivating was Yunxiao sect’s sect treasure, a superior-grade water-element cultivation technique.
To be able to reach the level of super-grade, this kind of cultivation technique was at least the top in the entire Yan country. There was almost no better cultivation technique than this. In the past years, this had always been one of Yunxiao sect’s greatest pride.
Wei Yun had never been dissatisfied with his cultivation method.
Therefore, when Lu Qing handed her a deified soul Jade slip and said that there was a rare and mysterious cultivation technique recorded in it, she felt disdainful. She even thought that Lu Qing’s careful request for her to make a soul oath was a little funny.
However, when she truly probed it with her spiritual sense and roughly skimmed through the contents recorded in the Jade slip, she immediately threw her previous disdain to the back of her mind.
“This Kasaya is a peerless-grade one?” Her imagination could only reach this level at most.
“Divine-grade.” Lu Qing said concisely.
Wei Yun let out a long sigh of relief.
It wasn’t that she didn’t think of it.
Based on her experience, the cultivation technique that Lu Qing had given her was much more exquisite than the cultivation technique that she had cultivated herself. It was not as simple as being one level higher. It would not be a problem to call it divine-grade.
Without a doubt, after obtaining the ‘immemorial Golden Dragon art’, she would definitely change her cultivation. No matter how much they yearned for their own sect’s signature cultivation technique passed down from generation to generation, no one could resist the attraction of divine-grade cultivation techniques.
However, she did not expect Lu Qing to be willing to give her something like this.
don’t look at me like that. I just want you to become stronger so that you can serve me better.
Lu Qing was speaking the truth, but Wei Yun, who was opposite him, still felt his heart palpitate.
“This world will soon be different.” Lu Qing added, ” if it’s only the materialization, you might not have a good life in the future. Weiyun, I hope that you can make more preparations.
“What do you mean?”
“You’ll know in the future.”
……
Lu Chaohe and Kong Anyang’s wedding was scheduled to be in half a month. This wedding was also the coronation ceremony for the young couple.
This process was done very quickly and hastily. If it was possible, Lu Qing did not want this to happen. After all, if things were to progress too quickly and too roughly, there would be many hidden dangers.
But after all, her situation was a little special. He didn’t have much time to slowly waste here and deal with the possible hidden dangers.
After all, his resurrection time was limited.
This time, when he resurrected in Qi country, Lu wenshi exchanged a four-star resurrection option for three months of resurrection time. It looked quite long, but it was actually not enough.
It did not take much effort to deal with Dongyang City, but in Jidu, it was not a problem that could be solved by a fight. All sorts of complicated situations were tangled together. Even if he used a rough method to settle it quickly, it would still take a lot of time.
Lu Qing still hoped that he could see Lu Chaohe sit on the throne within the two months of his resurrection. During this process, he would stay in Jidu to ensure that his will and control over Kong Shang and the other important ministers of Qi state would not fail.
When everything was done and became a fact, even if he left, the effect of the ghost God spell would be over, and it would not matter. There was still Weiyun to hold the fort. Kong Shang and the few family heads of the Qi state’s aristocratic families who were affected would also find it difficult to immediately turn against them and cause too much trouble.
After that, it would depend on Lu Chaohe’s political skills.
Of course, with Weiyun at his side and the country of Yan at the North as his biggest political ally, he still had the chance to unify the power of Qi.
As for Kong Anyang’s plot, it would also depend on Lu Chaohe’s own methods.
Kong Anyang was also stunned. Before this, she had never thought that she would one day become the Empress of Da Qi.
However, it was hard to tell what her attitude was toward marrying Lu Chaohe. It was hard for her to say what she wanted to share the throne with someone else.
At the very least, after they got married, Lu Qing could see that Kong Anyang’s loyalty to the Lu clan did not exceed 10 points on the list of family members.
Similarly, after Lu Chaohe became the Emperor of Da Qi, although Da Qi had entered Lu Qing’s list of national systems, the various functions of the National systems were almost unusable.
Every time Lu Qing clicked on the National system panel of the state of Qi, a notification would pop up:
[ please increase your control over Qi state. ]
All of this meant that even though Lu Chaohe had become the Emperor, all of this was just for show. It would still take a long time for the Qi Kingdom to be truly integrated into the Lu clan’s system. There were many things to be done.
However, this was the best Lu Qing could do with his resurrection.
There was still one month left before the resurrection time ended. Lu Qing brought Raynor with him and hurriedly set off on the Road to the north.
Raynor Xing’s submission was also due to Lu Qing’s mental suggestion through the ‘divine ghost technique’. Lu Qing did not dare to let this fellow go. He had to bring him to the Feiyun state before his resurrection time ended.
Lu Qing’s physical body could move freely in the Feiyun state. Raynor wouldn’t be able to cause any trouble there.
Furthermore, Lu Qing had two other things to do before the resurrection time ended.
