Unrivaled Tang Sect: Xiao Ding Zhen Tian

Chapter 152 Xiao Yun's Interview with Emperor Xingluo
Hearing Xiao Yun's words, Wang Yan was stunned, as if he was thinking about something.

Xiao Yun ignored him and just stared at the screen silently.

After a moment, Wang Yan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take a picture of this soul bone. If Luo Chen can't absorb it, it won't be a loss for us Shrek to get such a precious soul bone."

The reserve price of this piece of Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone reached a full 12 million gold soul coins, which really shocked Wang Yan.

However, thinking of the value of this soul bone, Wang Yan gritted his teeth and began to participate in the auction.

After all, Shrek's annual tax revenue is only a few hundred million gold soul coins. The price of this soul bone is equivalent to a few tenths of Shrek Academy's annual tax revenue, which is not a small amount.

Moreover, there are many people who want this soul bone. Perhaps it is the secret operation of the Starlight Auction House. Many of the people participating in today's auction are ice-attribute soul masters.

In the end, Wang Yan took the plunge and bought the soul bone at a high price of 30 million gold soul coins.

"Luochen, don't rush to absorb the soul bone after you get it. Wait until our game with Dou Ling is over before absorbing it." After taking a picture of the soul bone, Wang Yan shook his head with some pain, and then said to Ling Luochen.

Ling Luochen nodded. She understood what Wang Yan meant. The quality of this soul bone was too strong. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow were both crucial competitions. If something went wrong with her, it would have a significant impact on the competition.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter if this soul bone is absorbed a little later, and she doesn’t need to rush to absorb the soul bone because of this short period of time.

After the bidding for the finale item ended, most of the guests left the auction hall one after another.

At this moment, the door of the box where Shrek and his group were was suddenly opened.

Everyone looked towards the door and found the bright and charming Princess Jiujiu standing there. Her eyes, like autumn water, fell on everyone, revealing a smile that was enough to captivate the whole city.

"Everyone from Shrek Academy, on behalf of the Xingluo Royal Family, I welcome you." Jiujiu said with a chuckle. Of course, what she welcomed was not the Shrek people coming to the auction house, but the people coming to the Xingluo Empire.

Wang Yan stood up quickly. The status of this princess was no lower than that of White Tiger Duke Dai Hao. Although he was from Shrek Academy, even if he was the leader of the team, he still had to be respectful when meeting a princess of a country.

"Your Highness, I am Wang Yan, the leader of the Shrek team this time."

"I've heard that Teacher Wang Yan is an outstanding and wise general of Shrek Academy. After meeting him today, I find that he is indeed extraordinary." Jiujiu walked into the room slowly. The two girls in golden skirts behind him quickly pushed a cart into the room. "These are the items for today's auction for the distinguished guests."

"It's an honor to have Her Royal Highness the Princess come here in person." Wang Yan said with a smile.

Jiujiu shook his head gently, "Actually, I came here today to say hello to all the distinguished guests from Shrek, but the most important reason is that my royal brother wants to meet a friend who is here."

Her gaze moved and soon fell on Xiao Yun.

"Teacher Wang Yan, I wonder if I can have a private chat with Master Xiao Yun?"

Wang Yan was stunned, and the rest of the Shrek people also looked at Xiao Yun.

"Okay." Xiao Yun thought about it and didn't think it was a bad thing for the Xingluo Emperor to look for him, so he nodded and agreed.

Jiujiu smiled and said, "In that case, Master Xiao Yun, please come with Jiujiu."

"Teacher Wang Yan, you just need to communicate with Qingya regarding the payment for the items." After saying that, Jiujiu twisted her soft waist and left the room.

Xiao Yun put down the teacup in his hand, nodded to Wang Yan, and followed Jiujiu away.

"Teacher, will anything go wrong if the princess goes to see my brother?" Xiao Xiao looked at Wang Yan with some concern. Wang Yan smiled and touched her head. "Don't worry. Xiao Yun is our Shrek genius. If he really dares to attack Xiao Yun, we Shrek will not just do nothing. Of course, Emperor Xingluo will not do that either. I believe they must have something else to say."

"Oh~" Xiaoxiao seemed to understand but not quite. Her little head couldn't think of so many things.

On the contrary, Yoona didn't show any worry at all.

It’s not that Yoona doesn’t care about Xiao Yun. Her concern for Xiao Yun is definitely no less than Xiao Xiao’s. The main reason is that Yoona’s family is the Maple Leaf City Lord’s Mansion, which has some connection with the royal family. She knows more about this kind of thing than Xiao Xiao.

As for whether he was worried that Jiujiu would fall in love with Xiao Yun?
Just like him if you like him. Anyway, with Xiao Yun’s charm, Yoona doesn’t think that he will only have her as a girl in his life.

After Jiujiu left the box, Xiao Yun stared at the back of the beautiful princess in front of him, but saw the latter suddenly turned around and smiled at Xiao Yun, "Master Xiao Yun should not be very old this year, right?"

"In a few months he will be thirteen years old." Xiao Yun nodded.

"I really can't tell. I've watched several of your matches, but I always feel that you don't look like a twelve-year-old child." Jiujiu chuckled, "But in all these years, this is the first time I've seen a boy as good-looking as you."

Xiao Yun was somewhat helpless, "Your Highness, please stop teasing me."

"Don't call me Your Highness, just call me Sister Jiujiu." Jiujiu said with a smile, "Well, although this is the first time we officially meet, I still have a good impression of you."

"After all, there aren't many little brothers as good-looking as you."

"Don't joke around. The world is so big, there are so many people who are prettier than me." Xiao Yun smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I'm serious. Back then, Duke Dai Hao of White Tiger and my brother were the most famous handsome men in the Xing Luo Empire, but they were not as good-looking as you when they were young." Jiujiu said seriously, "I have seen their portraits when they were young, and I can be responsible for what I said."

The corners of Xiao Yun's mouth twitched. Could it be that your Highness the Princess came to me just to discuss my appearance?

"By the way, can I call you Brother Xiao Yun? Well, I always wanted to ask my father and mother to give me a younger brother, but they are no longer with us, so my dream has to be shattered." Jiujiu looked at Xiao Yun expectantly.

".As long as Your Highness is happy."

"I told you not to call me Your Highness." Jiujiu smiled and walked to Xiao Yun, pinching his little face, "Call me Sister Jiujiu."

".Isn't this bad?"

"Be obedient." Jiujiu pinched Xiao Yun's face again. Xiao Yun had no choice but to shout, "Sister Jiujiu."

"That's good." Jiujiu laughed happily and patted Xiao Yun's head. "In the future in the Xingluo Empire, sister will protect you." So how did it develop into what it is now?

Xiao Yun didn't understand.

Under Jiujiu's guidance, the two came to a box in the Starlight Auction House.

The two girls in golden skirts standing at the door quickly opened the door. Xiao Yun was led in by Jiujiu's hand and he saw a middle-aged man sitting on the sofa in the middle of the box.

His appearance is not much different from Xu Jiujiu. He is handsome, and the imperial aura he exudes gives him infinite charm.

"Xiao Yun greets His Majesty." Xiao Yun took a deep breath and spoke loudly to the middle-aged man.

This person is none other than the Xingluo Emperor, Xu Jiawei.

"My friend, there is no need to be so polite. Jiujiu, please take young friend Xiao Yun to take a seat." The Xingluo Emperor waved his hand with a smile. Today he was not wearing a dragon robe, but just a very ordinary gorgeous dress, but it was still difficult to conceal his noble temperament.

Xiao Yun nodded, and then sat opposite the Xingluo Emperor for a long time.

"Your Majesty, why are you looking for me?" After Xiao Yun sat down, he asked without hesitation.

The Xingluo Emperor glanced at him and said, "Are you interested in joining our Xingluo Royal Family? If you are willing to join, our Royal Family is willing to use the best resources to train you, so that you can reach a terrifying realm in a short period of time, and we will prepare your spirit rings and spirit bones for you."

Xiao Yun was stunned. This His Majesty was really straightforward. He started by talking about poaching people.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I feel quite comfortable staying in Shrek and have no intention of leaving for the time being." Xiao Yun shook his head. What he said was the truth. He would not be brainwashed anyway. Shrek still owed him a lot of things. How could he just run away like that?

The Xingluo Emperor seemed to have anticipated Xiao Yun's answer. He nodded and did not say anything to persuade him to stay.

"What I just said was just an invitation from me, but it doesn't matter. The real reason I want to talk to you today is because of your martial spirit, or the power behind you." Emperor Xingluo paused, "Qingtian Palace."

The Sky-supporting Palace?
Thinking of the past story that Grandpa Dugu Jing had told him, Xiao Yun frowned slightly, "I don't know what the Qingtian Palace is. Did Your Majesty ask the wrong person?"

“Perhaps you really don’t know the existence of the Qingtian Palace, but your identity in the Qingtian Palace is definitely extremely important.” Emperor Xingluo shook his head.

"Your Majesty, my parents are just commoners in a city in the Heavenly Soul Realm. The greatest achievement they have ever made is just studying at Shrek Academy. I really don't have much status."

"This is only what you know now. In fact, from the moment your martial soul awakened, your status in the Qingtian Palace was destined to be supreme." The Xingluo Emperor took a deep breath and spoke.

"Is it because of my martial spirit?"

"Yes."

Emperor Xingluo nodded and said, "The Sky-clearing Palace is actually a very special force. They look like a hidden sect, but their scale is much larger than that of a hidden sect. They are more like an army."

"When Tiandou split, the first army of Tiandou, the Qingtian Army, was the predecessor of the Qingtian Palace, and the Qingtian Army God was the most outstanding genius in the continent at that time. It's a pity that he died young in his prime because of the conspiracy of the Tianhun royal family."

"And the martial soul of that military god is almost identical to yours. In the records of our Xingluo royal family, this martial soul is called the Nine Dragon Cauldron."

Nine Dragon Cauldron?
"Moreover, the name of that god of war is Xiao Xuan." Emperor Xingluo added.

Nine Dragon Cauldron, Nine Dragons Heaven-guarding Cauldron.
I didn't expect that the name I gave it based on the characteristics of its martial soul would be almost the same as its real name.

Seeing Xiao Yun lost in thought, Emperor Xingluo said slowly, "After the split of Tiandou, due to Xiao Xuan's death, the Qingtian Corps was suppressed by the newly established Tianhun Empire. Under the leadership of Xiao Xuan's descendants at that time, the entire Qingtian Corps disappeared from everyone's sight."

"For thousands of years, the Tianhun Royal Family has been investigating the hiding place of the Qingtian Legion, but to no avail."

"However, not only the Tianhun Royal Family, but also the Douling Empire, our Xingluo Empire, and the Sun and Moon Empire all know that the Qingtian Legion cannot just disappear like this. They are just waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to overthrow the Tianhun Royal Family and make Qingtian the emperor."

After hearing what Emperor Xingluo said, Xiao Yun finally understood.

No wonder Yan Shaozhe's attitude towards me was so changeable at the beginning. It turned out that what he valued was not my talent, or talent was just one of the factors. What he really valued was my background in the Qingtian Palace.

However, at that time, I had no idea what the Qingtian Palace was.

"I almost understand what you mean, Your Majesty." Xiao Yun nodded, "My martial soul is very likely the same as that of the Sky-Bearing God of War. In other words, I should be the descendant of that God of War."

"Almost, but just being descendants is not enough." Emperor Xingluo smiled. "Although the situation of the Sky-clearing Palace is still very vague, we can know that the reason why they have been silent for so many years is probably because they don't have a spirit like the Sky-clearing Military God."

"Your sister Xiao Xiao's martial spirit should be different from yours, right?"

Xiao Yun was stunned. "It seems that Your Majesty has indeed watched our academy's competition carefully."

"Of course, I also studied and graduated from Shrek. So, I am your senior." The Xingluo Emperor laughed.

"So, your majesty means that the Sky Palace has not had a person with the Nine Dragon Cauldron spirit for so many years, so they have never taken action against the Heavenly Soul Royal Family. It was not until I appeared that they were ready to take action?"

"That's right. Because your martial soul is the Nine Dragon Cauldron, the Sky Palace is very likely to make you the young master, the future palace master." Emperor Xingluo nodded, "Even after overthrowing the Tianhun royal family, you may become the future prince, or even the emperor."

The corners of Xiao Yun's mouth twitched. He thought he was from an ordinary family, but he didn't expect that he would be involved in such a big thing.

"Your Majesty, why are you so sure that the Sky Palace will start to take action?"

"In fact, just yesterday, our royal guards found an inn in Xingluo City that was destroyed due to fighting. Two people died. The dead were from the Body Sect, the national defense sect of the Tianhun Empire."

Emperor Xingluo glanced at Xiao Yun and said, "In this world, there are not many forces that can openly attack the Body Sect. The only one that is most likely to do so is the Sky-clearing Palace."

"Because back then, it was the Body Sect that helped the then Tianhun Imperial Family to secretly kill the Sky-Bearing Army God, and caused the Sky-Bearing Army to leave the Tianhun Empire with hatred." Emperor Xingluo smiled, "This hatred is very great."
