I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 1974 Discussion
"Ran Min, what are you yelling about? Are you trying to show off your loud voice?" The majestic voice of the chief steward came from outside the heavy door of the Extreme Fire Temple like thunder, shaking the entire temple so much that it seemed to tremble slightly.

Ran Min, who was full of vigor just now, shuddered like an eggplant hit by frost when he heard this familiar and awe-inspiring voice. He quickly stepped aside, lowered his head, and dared not even breathe. His face was full of fear and awe, as if the man with such vigor just now was not him.

The other people in the Extreme Fire Temple also rushed to their respective positions like frightened birds, standing in a neat row, no one dared to move. Their faces were full of awe and tension, as if they were waiting for something big to happen.

The chief steward, along with Liu Jun and Yan Li, walked slowly from the empty space in the middle of the temple.

In the blink of an eye, they walked to the dragon throne at the top of the Extreme Fire Temple.

The dragon throne was glittering with gold, with carved dragons and painted phoenixes, and looked extremely noble. However, there was only one dragon throne, so Liu Jun and Yan Li could only stand obediently on both sides.

Liu Jun glanced at the dragon throne for a few seconds. He had no idea who made this thing. It had no taste at all and was too gold.

At this time, the chief steward was sitting on the dragon chair, his eyes were like torches, he scanned the people below, and slowly spoke, his voice was clear and powerful: "Do you have any opinions to raise?"

There was a moment of silence, no one said a word. They seemed to be intimidated by the steward's aura and lost their ability to speak. There was fear and curiosity in their eyes, and they were all guessing what the steward would say next.

Seeing this, the chief steward continued, "Since no one has any objections, I will say a few words. The man next to me, Liu Jun, is my newly adopted son and the future successor to my position."

As soon as these words came out, everyone below was in an uproar. They all turned their eyes to Liu Jun, with surprise, envy, and other things in their eyes.

Liu Jun himself was stunned. How could he not go back on his word? Wasn't it agreed that he would be given three days to consider, and that day hadn't even come yet? Wasn't this a typical case of forcing something to happen?

And why did he say he was his adopted son? Could it be that his master Qing Fengzi had some unspeakable secret? So that he couldn't make public the fact that he was Qing Fengzi's apprentice?
Yan Li stood quietly by the side, his face as calm as a pool of stagnant water, without the slightest ripple of expression, as if he already knew what the steward was about to say.

"From now on, you can call him the Holy Son." The steward emphasized again, and his voice echoed in the empty space.

When everyone heard this, they all focused their eyes on Yan Li. You know, Yan Li is the adopted daughter of the Skyfire God King, and also a highly respected saint in the God King City.

The chief steward suddenly adopted a son and asked everyone to call him the Holy Son. The reasons behind this were really intriguing. Everyone was secretly wondering what kind of unknown secrets were hidden behind this seemingly ordinary decision.

The curiosity in these people's hearts was like a surging tide, constantly surging, but no one dared to ask the questions in their hearts directly. After all, the three words "Feng Wanqing" were like thunder hanging high in the sky, containing a chilling deterrent power.

Sima Zhu was the first to bow respectfully and said, "Greetings to the Holy Son."

Seeing this, the other scholars also hurriedly followed Sima Zhu in greeting and said in unison, "Greetings to the Holy Son."

Ran Min, who was standing by, looked down on Liu Jun, and his contempt was clearly visible on his face. However, he knew that he could not disobey the majesty of the chief steward, so he could only follow the generals and perform the salute unwillingly.

Liu Junze imitated the way he looked in the TV series, waved his hands at everyone, and said, "No need to be polite, everyone. Stand up."

At this time, the chief steward said, "Okay, let's start this year's regular meeting."

Sima Zhu then said, "Captain, the overall situation in the Divine Realm this year can be considered good. However, some forces have gradually become restless because the Divine King has not appeared in so many years."

"Old rules, courtesy first, then force." A cold light flashed in the steward's eyes, and it was obvious that he had the intention to kill.

"Aren't you feeling bored in the God King City? This time, cooperate with Sima Zhu and go out for some fresh air." The steward looked at Ran Min and said.

When Ran Min heard this, his eyes lit up instantly. He rubbed his hands excitedly and responded in a loud voice: "Okay, thank you, Steward! This time we must have a good fight!"

Sima Zhu was listening quietly at the side, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something important.

After the conversation between the chief steward and Ran Min was over, he slowly spoke: "Also, chief steward, the Hanshui Divine Territory has begun recruiting soldiers across the territory. I sent people to investigate, but they didn't find any useful information. Those officials only knew that it was an order from the Hanshui Divine Palace, but as for what exactly was to be done, they had no idea."

The chief steward frowned upon hearing this, and her expression became serious. She knew very well that the move by the Hanshui Divine Realm was of great significance, and there must be some major conspiracy behind it.

"Continue to send people to investigate and make sure to find out their true intentions. At the same time, send a message to Su Ran, if any enemy attacks, there is no need to ask the Palace of the God King, just kill them directly! We cannot give the enemy any chance to breathe." The steward replied.

When Su Ran was mentioned, a hint of admiration and trust flashed in the steward's eyes.

Su Ran is the Northern Guardian General of the Skyfire Divine Realm. He is brave and good at fighting, and his reputation is far-reaching. The north of the Skyfire Divine Realm is the border with the Cold Water Divine Realm.

Ran Min and Sima Zhu nodded silently upon hearing this, and felt that the former decisive Feng Wanqing had returned. Then, everyone started an in-depth discussion on the future development direction and resource allocation of the Skyfire Divine Realm. These topics were complex and tedious, covering a wide range of issues, but none of them had anything to do with Liu Jun.

Although he has been officially called the Son of God and is regarded by everyone as the future successor to the chief steward of the Palace of the God King, in terms of actual power and responsibilities, he is still just a young junior with a title.

The sun gradually set in the west, and a gorgeous sunset glow appeared in the sky. Bright lights had been lit outside the palace, decorating the palace in the night like a dream. After nearly three hours of intense discussion, everyone finally ended this lengthy meeting.

Liu Jun stood for a long time, his legs were numb. He recalled that the last time he was punished like this was when he was young and ignorant. He took advantage of the principal's toilet break and threw firecrackers into the toilet. As a result, the teacher made him stand for a whole afternoon.

When everyone in the conference room left one after another, the steward smiled and patted Liu Jun's arm, then took him back to the magnificent palace where they had had their meal before.

The palace was brightly lit, forming a sharp contrast with the night outside.

"How was it? What do you think of today's meeting?" asked the steward.

Liu Jun shook his head and told the truth: "Master's Wife, I don't have any special feelings, I just feel a little bored. These big things are too far away from me, and they sound troublesome."

The chief steward looked at Liu Jun with deep eyes: "It's not enough to just feel bored. You have to get used to this kind of life in the future and learn to gain knowledge and experience from these things. You have to know that when you really sit in that position, your words and actions may affect the future of the entire Skyfire Divine Realm."

"Master's wife, please don't joke with me! I really don't want to sit in this seat, and I have no intention of sitting there at all. Didn't you clearly tell me before that you would give me three days to think about it carefully? But now you are going back on your word, which is simply putting me on the shelf!" Liu Jun's face was full of resentment, and his expression showed helplessness and grievance.

"I originally wanted to give you three days, but the neighbors around us are not willing to give us so much time." The steward sighed heavily and said solemnly.

"Are you talking about the Hanshui Divine Realm?" Liu Jun frowned and asked in confusion.

"Not only the Frost Water Divine Realm, but the Platinum Divine Realm is also taking the same action. It's just that the Platinum Divine Realm has not yet recruited soldiers from the entire region, but it has already been making intensive preparations for war." The steward explained patiently with a serious expression.

"Well, what can I do?" Liu Jun hesitated for a while and asked.

"Just be a good son and I will arrange Sima Zhu to assist you." The steward replied firmly.

"What about you?" Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, looking straight at the steward.

"Su Ran is in the Hanshui Divine Realm, but there's no one guarding the Platinum Divine Realm. I have to go for a walk." The steward had a firm look and a resolute tone.

"No, the poison in your body has not been removed yet. I am really worried about you going there." Liu Jun immediately raised a firm objection, his face full of worry and anxiety.

"This little bit of poison is not a big deal. As long as I'm here, they won't dare to do anything wrong." The steward's attitude was extremely firm, and his eyes were filled with unquestionable determination.

"In your situation, based on the current preparation speed of the Hanshui Divine Realm, if they want to start a war, how long will it take at least?" Liu Jun frowned and asked solemnly.

"After careful analysis of the existing intelligence, there shouldn't be any major moves within three months. Even if conscription is carried out across the entire region, it will take several months for training." The steward frowned slightly and said seriously.

"Three months. Give me three months and I will completely resolve the problems in the Hanshui Divine Realm." Liu Jun said without hesitation, his eyes flashing with confidence and courage.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't even mention whether you have the ability to solve it. Even if you do, you are now the Holy Son of Skyfire Divine City. Do you want to be a hostage?" The steward frowned, his face full of seriousness and worry.

"Master's wife, please trust me this time. You know me. I promise you that I will do what I say." Liu Jun said with the same firm attitude, as if he had made up his mind to complete this difficult task.

"Tell me about your plan." The steward stared at Liu Jun closely, and time seemed to freeze at this moment. After a long time, he seemed to see the unswerving determination in Liu Jun's eyes, and then he sighed helplessly.

"I want to cause chaos in the Hanshui Divine Realm." Liu Jun said word by word.

"Go on." The steward nodded slightly, signaling Liu Jun to continue.

“If I remember correctly, the Hanshui Divine Realm is close to the Sea of ​​Death? And every hundred years, we have to defend against attacks from sea beasts.” Liu Jun’s eyes flashed with wisdom as he explained his thoughts clearly.

"You want to make a fuss about the sea beasts? But these sea beasts, firstly, are out of control, and secondly, there are three large cities defending where the sea beasts attack, so it is difficult for these sea beasts to rush through." The steward frowned, her face full of doubts. She really wanted to know the reason why Liu Jun was so confident.

"What if the sea beasts can bypass the three major cities and directly enter the heart of the Cold Water Divine Realm?" Liu Jun blinked, his mouth corners slightly raised, as if he had already seen the moment when the plan was successful.
