Douluo: Reincarnation of the Rock King, Wandering in the Mortal World

Chapter 360-360: Rock King!
"I am old now, and I no longer have the ambitions I had when I was young, let alone the ability to lead the people of the empire to a more glorious tomorrow!"

Looking at Xue Ye speaking with full energy on the stage, everyone's eyes twitched slightly.

Is he old?
Under normal circumstances, there would be no problem for him to live another ten years. This was just an excuse.

You can't just say he's incompetent and then abdicate, right?

On the contrary, Emperor Xue Ye is the most powerful and ambitious emperor of the Tiandou Empire in the past thousand years!

During his reign, he suppressed two civil wars in the empire and was even on par with the rising star, the Xing Luo Empire.

That's right, it's just a tie.

The Xing Luo Empire was developing too fast, and was showing signs of surpassing the Tian Dou Empire. If it weren't for the Spirit Hall's interference, the Tian Dou Empire would have perished long ago.

It was not until Xue Ye's generation that this trend was reversed.

It is no exaggeration to say that he has great talent and strategy.

Of course, if it weren’t for the Spirit Hall’s interference, the Tiandou Empire would have been able to destroy the Xingluo Empire before it developed.

It can be said that without the Spirit Hall, there would not be the current three-way balance of power, and Douluo Continent would have been unified long ago.

Of course, the Spirit Hall did nothing wrong, it was just a matter of different positions, and no one wanted the other party to dominate, unless it was themselves.

This also caused a problem, that is, there were constant minor frictions between the two empires, and countless soldiers died in the process.

If we could unify the country earlier, perhaps we could get out of this situation.

"Crown Prince Xue Qinghe is kind-hearted and has the qualities of an emperor. He has handled state affairs fairly well in recent years and is supported by all officials and loved by the common people. He is truly a talent for an emperor."

"Today, I announce my abdication and the throne will be taken over by Crown Prince Xue Qinghe!"

Xue Ye didn't say too much nonsense. He directly announced his abdication. After the throne was inherited by "Xue Qinghe", the succession ceremony began.

The ceremony was so complicated that even "Xue Qinghe" almost couldn't stand it.

If the emperor dies, ascending the throne again is not that complicated, but this is a succession of throne, not death.

Therefore, this process must take Xue Ye's feelings into consideration.

When "Xue Qinghe" put on the crown, wore the dragon robe, and sat on the throne, the ceremony had just begun!
That’s right, after all this trouble, the ceremony has just begun...

"I am Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire. I am favored by my father and sit on the throne!"

"Today I declare to the Emperor of Heaven and Earth that I will..."

Xue Qinghe said with a serious expression as he sat on the dragon throne.

These were lines that had been prepared long ago, and she only needed to read them out loud.

Of course, this is just a ceremony.

Sitting on this throne depends entirely on Xue Ye's personal wish. As for whether the emperor of heaven and earth will bless her, that is definitely impossible.

If she had been blessed, she would not have failed so completely when she tried to usurp the throne in her previous life.

After realizing this, "Xue Qinghe" no longer had the slightest favorable impression towards the so-called gods.

Hypocritical, these gods are very hypocritical.

Especially the Sea God and Asura God!
They had killed Tang San, but the other party was able to resurrect Tang San and even go one step further. If such a thing happened to them, it would be unimaginable.

Not only are those gods hypocritical, they also say that gods cannot easily interfere with the human world.

It’s simply outrageous…

If they hadn't intervened, there might not have been this "second week".

"After all, you have grown from a prince to an emperor, Qinghe... No, I should call you Your Majesty now."

Xue Ye stroked his beard and smiled. What he said was not that simple, he was pointing at certain people.

This does not include "Xue Qinghe" himself.

After hearing this, everyone hurriedly saluted "Xue Qinghe".

"Long live my emperor!"

The former emperor called "Xue Qinghe" His Majesty, let alone their ministers!
"Father, you should just call me Qinghe. You..."

"Haha, isn't this happening in front of the ministers?"

Xue Ye was very satisfied with the performance of "Xue Qinghe". He knew that the other party did not take him lightly just because he became an emperor. This was good.

"Xue Qinghe" sighed in her heart. For a moment, she really hoped that Xue Ye was her father, but unfortunately, he was not.

"Your Majesty, you have just ascended the throne, and there should be a lot of things to do. I will not interfere here."

After saying this, Xue Ye left very tactfully. From now on, he would spend most of his time in the harem.

It is said that emperors are extravagant, but that is not the case on a snowy night.

He only has one queen and three concubines!

The three concubines were all married in for marriage alliances.

As an emperor, how could this be considered extravagance?
"Xue Qinghe" did not stop him. It is said that a new official will start with three major changes when he takes office, let alone an emperor.

"Pass on my oral order, and appoint my teacher Ning Fengzhi as the Imperial Teacher..."

The first step is naturally to promote people who are close to you, even if they are only close on the surface.

Ning Fengzhi's acceptance of "Xue Qinghe" as his disciple was nothing more than an exchange of interests.

Of course, Ning Fengzhi also taught the Crown Princess "Xue Qinghe" very seriously and taught her a lot of things.

After all, Tiandou City is not Wuhun City, so it is impossible to teach "Xue Qinghe" in a high-profile manner. Therefore, Ning Fengzhi, the prince's teacher, is still very necessary.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Ning Fengzhi had a very good relationship with "Xue Qinghe". If he was not appointed as the Emperor's Teacher, it would instead arouse suspicion among the people.

No one had any doubts about this reward. Everyone felt it was natural, even Ning Fengzhi himself felt so.

The investment in "Xueqinghe" finally paid off.

As for the title, Ning Fengzhi was already a marquis, and there was no more title he could be given, so it was impossible for him to be made a king!

Marquis is already the highest title among people of different surnames, therefore, Ning Fengzhi was merely appointed as the Emperor's Teacher, which was more of a title and did not have much effect.

Of course, for Ning Fengzhi, the significance of this title is obviously much greater than some physical rewards. This is the emperor's teacher!
"Your Majesty the Martial God Zhongli, during this time as a guest official in the Crown Prince's Palace, you have saved me from danger many times. Being in Tiandou City, you have intimidated all the villains!"

"Appoint the God of War Zhongli as the national teacher and grant him the title of King of a different surname: King Yan!"

"You can go to court without bowing, enter the palace at will, and mobilize the Royal Knights!"

"The Martial God Zhongli is a master of martial arts, a scholar of heaven and earth, and a gentleman!"

"Granted the title of King of the Same Side, seeing him is like seeing me, sharing the fate of the empire, sharing the faith of the empire, called: Emperor!"

"Emperor Rock King!"

After seeing the rewards, everyone was stunned, but they also felt it was very reasonable!

Yes, that makes perfect sense!
What kind of person is Zhongli? Everyone in the court, whether civil or military, knows him.

He had no interest in the court, let alone any title.

With such a title and nobility, he would not do anything excessive.

Besides, even if these didn’t happen, who could stop Zhongli from doing anything?
