I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 133: To resist for dozens of seconds is dignity, to kneel down is respect! (Please subscribe, please vote)
Yunhai City stands on the Feng Shui treasure land of Tianmen Peaks.

This place is majestic and towering, with peaks and ridges upon peaks.

On the top of the peak sits a magnificent palace, shining brightly like a treasure between heaven and earth.

This palace is named "Qiankuntai".

Qiankuntai has a unique architectural style, which has both classical charm and is full of fairy spirit.

The roof of the palace is covered with golden glazed tiles, which sparkle brightly under the sunlight.

The pillars are carved from rare jade, which is crystal clear and emits a faint glow.

Qiankuntai is divided into the main hall and the secondary hall. Those who came to the main hall today are basically the leaders of the major sects in Jiuyuan Holy Land.

They were dressed in green robes, wore jade crowns on their heads, and each of them wore a magical weapon that glowed with spiritual light.

Especially those in the lead, they have a powerful aura and extraordinary temperament between their brows.

In the central cultivation world of the Tiance Dynasty, these people are influential figures and are all leaders of well-known large sects.

In the past, if they had come to such a grand venue, these people would have been all smiles, greeting their acquaintances, talking to each other about the recent developments of the sect, and showing off what talented disciples they had.

But today these people all looked a little heavy, because they all belonged to the Jiuyuan Holy Land, and the leader of the Jiuyuan Holy Land failed in his sneak attack on the current emperor and is now being imprisoned.

They came here this time because they were invited to discuss with the emperor of the Tiance Dynasty how to deal with the affairs of Dingtian Shangren.

Whether to put pressure on the emperor to release Dingtian Shangren or to sever ties with Dingtian Shangren depends on the subsequent negotiations.

It was not the first or second time that the sect forces met the emperor. Some royal children and even princes had also joined the sect forces.

However, this was the first time in nearly a thousand years that such a large-scale collective meeting with the emperor took place.

Because as the sect becomes more powerful, various privileges emerge.

From the beginning, people did not kneel before the emperor, to later the emperor personally welcomed him.

These are positions that the powerful people in the sects have earned through their strength.

Therefore, in the eyes of these sect leaders, the power of the sect is above everything, including the top royal families among the aristocratic families.

At this moment, there are already three saints in the main hall, including the 'newly promoted' saints, Fairy Youlan of Tianyan Divine Sect, Mu Qingrou, the master of Ziyun Fairy Mansion, and Zhenren Wanfeng, the master of Lingyan Taoist Sect.

In the world of cultivation, some sects are accustomed to using Taoist names, while others have real names. This is also their respective traditions.

These three also had their auras at full strength, with all special effects turned on. A terrifying power of heaven and earth began to spread from the main hall, frightening the elders and disciples in the secondary hall.

There were two dazzling divine halos hanging behind the Fairy Youlan, and she seemed to be surrounded by a sea of ​​flowers and stars. This was the vision of heaven and earth that she could show.

Zhenren Wanfeng is a legendary cultivator with dual attributes of wind and fire. The divine rings behind him are two red and one blue, and strange fire is surging all over his body. He has the momentum to swallow up the world and refine all things. He is also a famous alchemist.

Mu Qingrou's cultivation was even more terrifying. She was the top swordsman on the continent. She had five divine rings behind her and a giant sword phantom stood behind her, piercing into the ground. She was like the Sword Master sitting next to the giant sword!
These people are all the faces of Jiuyuan Holy Land, and are looked up to by the disciples of the second hall.

Those who were waiting in the secondary hall already felt the boundless pressure coming.

Many people are even discussing whether the emperor of the Tiance Dynasty dares to come today.

"Why hasn't the Emperor of Tiance Dynasty come yet? I heard that the old man is ugly and incompetent. It's hard for me to even see this place."

"I heard that Dingtian Shangren fell into a trap, otherwise he wouldn't have lost so badly."

"That's what I said. How could a strong man like Ding Tian Shang Ren lose to an incompetent emperor? Most likely, the emperor cheated."

"This is our home ground, and the elders have personally arranged it. There can't be any traps. This time I want to see what tricks the emperor can play."

"I hope he will know what's happening and release Dingtian Shangren, then apologize. Otherwise, we won't tolerate it!"

Many sect elders and disciples have begun to express their opinions.

They knew the news from the imperial capital, but it was hard to say what it would look like when it reached their ears.

One thing is certain, they feel that no matter how powerful the emperor is, he cannot be compared to the strong men from the various sects.

Even though there are only three saints in the main hall, the other sect leaders are also quite capable. Each of them releases his or her aura, ready to show the emperor a warning.

Let’s put it this way, anyone with a low level of cultivation who enters the main hall will be shocked to the point of vomiting blood by the boundless momentum.

The disciples of the sect who were at the Saint level in the secondary hall began to show off arrogantly, making the other disciples envious. Not to mention that there were tens of thousands of practitioners watching the show outside the secondary hall, and they didn't even have the chance to enter the secondary hall.

Today I just want to admire the big guys of the sect from afar.

At first, it was only a slight vibration on the ground that was noticed by some sect monks with powerful senses. They all stopped what they were doing and looked hesitant.

As time went by, the vibration became stronger and stronger. The whole earth was shaking. Even the huge rocks on the mountain peaks were shaking slightly, making dull sounds.

The minds of the sect's monks also became tense, as if they were facing some crisis.

At this moment, a uniform and powerful sound of footsteps rang out, echoing through the valley like thunder, shaking people's hearts and minds.

The monks looked in the direction of the sound and saw a golden torrent surging between the mountains in the distance. In the golden torrent, flags were fluttering with dragon patterns embroidered on them, demonstrating the dignity and majesty of the royal family.

They swept in like a golden storm, and wherever they passed, the grass and trees bowed their heads and the rocks trembled!
These sect monks looked at this mighty army of golden armor with shock in their eyes. They originally thought that the royal family was just a larger aristocratic family, pampered and vulnerable nobles.

Only now do we know that the imperial guards are so powerful. Their might is breathtaking, and many monks from various sects have put away their contempt.

But this is just the beginning.

Accompanied by a loud bang, the sky was filled with thousands of golden lights!

A purple dragon hovered above the sky, shaking the sky!
An emperor wearing a brocade dragon robe and with an upright posture stepped out from it.

Li Chen's figure appeared in the main hall. His appearance alone was enough to change the color of the heaven and earth and cause the universe to be in turmoil!

Mysterious patterns flowed around his body and divine light shone!
Unparalleled divine power enveloped the entire hall.

Nine purple-gold divine rings descended from the sky and surrounded Li Chen.

The powerful aura instantly overwhelmed the three saints in the main hall!

The strong man's painting style was displayed to tens of thousands of people present, making the crowd extremely excited!
Even many famous practitioners at the scene were surprised. Isn't the emperor's strength too exaggerated?

Is this really something a human monk could cause? Not to mention that he had just appeared!
His appearance alone left everyone dumbfounded.

But the next second, an even more magnificent scene appeared.

Even the leaders of some nearby sects couldn't help but exclaimed: "What! Strange phenomenon in heaven and earth!?"

At this moment, behind Li Chen, all kinds of auspicious visions of heaven appeared.

The divine dragon emerges from the abyss, the phoenix spreads its wings, the unicorn soars into the sky, the white tiger lies on the ground, and the black tortoise carries the mountain!

The appearance of just one of these strange phenomena in heaven and earth is enough to prove that this man's strength is astonishing.

Now there are five of them, and the whole audience is shocked!

"Is this a deity descending to earth? Can a mortal really cause such a strange phenomenon?"

"Fuck, look over there, purple air is coming from the east, this..."

"Is he the emperor of the Tiance Dynasty? He truly is a man-dragon with the power to rule the world!"

"If you hadn't said he was the emperor, I would have thought the gates of heaven had opened and the immortal king had descended to the mortal world."

The monks from various sects who had just looked down on the royal family were now so shocked that their expressions changed immediately.

Some even couldn't help but kneel down to Li Chen.

Because in front of a powerful person of this level, standing is considered impolite.

But the problem was, they were noble monks from the sect, and kneeling would be a loss of status, so these people could only endure such a powerful force and stand nearby to watch.

And these are just the residual power of Li Chen. Those who truly feel the power of Li Chen are naturally the people in the main hall. Those people are the main targets of Li Chen this time.

As soon as he arrived nearby, Li Chen realized that this group of people wanted to compete with him.

Li Chen is not afraid of this, so he just maxed it out this time.

Because everyone was showing off this time, he basically opened all the doors that could be opened.

This was also the first time he had opened such a large event, and the group of people in front of him were worthy of his opening.

From the moment Li Chen arrived at the main hall, the three brilliant saints of the sect had dimmed. The divine rings and visions behind them were shaken by Li Chen's divine rings and visions, and even showed signs of disappearing.

The starry sea of ​​flowers of Fairy Youlan was dispersed, the raging strange fire of Master Wanfeng turned into flames, and the phantom of Mu Qingrou's giant sword turned into the phantom of a broken sword.

Compared with special effects, Li Chen has never been afraid of anyone.

The next step is deterrence. Li Chen is the emperor who reigns supreme in the world, and he will not allow anyone to be on an equal footing with him.

He didn't even tolerate the local imperial masters, let alone these saints from other places.

Originally, everyone thought that if Emperor Li Chen came in to show off a bit, his aura would be lowered, making it easier to start the next conversation.

But Li Chen did not surrender, instead he frantically stimulated his meridians, and his terrifying momentum continued to increase.

In an instant, everyone in the main hall felt the energy that could destroy heaven and earth coming towards them.

Especially the three saints, all of them had expressions of horror on their faces, and they all felt that their hearts were being grasped tightly by a giant hand.

As long as the owner of this giant hand exerts force, they will surely die.

In the eyes of everyone in the main hall, Li Chen was like the biggest giant god in the world, looking down at them.

Even if Mu Qingrou, the strongest among the three, wanted to resist, she felt that she had no chance of winning. Just when she was thinking about whether to fight to the death, the people of Tianyan Divine Sect actually began to kneel?
"Common people come to see your majesty, long live your majesty!"

"Common people come to see your majesty, long live your majesty!"

The first to kneel down was naturally Fairy Youlan, followed by Fairy Yuehua and Master Lingtian.

Don’t ask them why they can kneel so smoothly. It’s because they have done it so many times that they have become accustomed to it.

When the elders of Tianyan Divine Sect saw these three people kneeling, they naturally knelt down as well.

After they surrendered, the intimidation on them was indeed much less, and they were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, all with a look of relief on their faces.

Fairy Youlan is the weakest Saint-level figure present, so it is more reasonable for her to kneel down first.

No one considered whether she was a shill.

But the second person to kneel was Mu Qingrou, which surprised many people. Everyone thought that she might explode and fight with Li Chen, and why did she kneel down when Master Wanfeng hadn't even knelt yet?

In fact, only Mu Qingrou, who was kneeling on the ground, knew that she was the target of Li Chen's main attack, and she was under the greatest pressure.

There are only two choices before her: resist and die, kneel down and live.

Seeing Fairy Youlan kneeling down, since there were already steps, she naturally knelt down as well.

Because there is no point in resisting at this time. She can feel it herself if she can't win.

As she knelt down, the female cultivators from Ziyun Immortal Mansion also knelt down.

The person who is under the most pressure right now is Master Wanfeng. Blood is already flowing from the corners of this guy's mouth, as if he is the most courageous person in the Jiuyuan Holy Land.

Just when Li Chen showed admiration for him and was ready to kill him, he still knelt down.

"Common people come to see your majesty, long live your majesty!"

A slogan that resounded through the sky came out from Wanfeng Zhenren's mouth.

Holding on for dozens of seconds is his dignity as a saint and the leader of Lingyan Dao Sect, and it is also his principle.

Kneeling down was a sign of his respect for a strong man of Li Chen's level.

Seeing these people kneeling down, the others naturally knelt down as well.

Whether it was the sect leaders in the main hall, the elders and elite disciples in the secondary hall, or even the sect practitioners watching from the outside, they all knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live His Majesty".

Because they found that whoever shouts louder will feel less pressure.

Seeing that everyone in front of him surrendered, Li Chen restrained his momentum and said, "Stand up."

Having said that, he sat down on the main seat without any hesitation. This time no one had any objection. Li Chen showed his strength, which was enough to shut up many people.

After Li Chen sat down, everyone present focused their attention on him and began to observe him carefully.

Even many people from the secondary hall came over to watch secretly.

Only after seeing this did I realize how outrageous the rumors outside were. He is not old and ugly at all. He is young and handsome, and his strength is also ridiculously strong.

It completely subverted their stereotype of the emperor.

Now no one questioned how Dingtian Shangren lost. They all thought: Dingtian Shangren really dared to fight!

Damn it, isn’t this just asking for death?

Not to mention fighting with Li Chen, many sect elders were afraid just by looking at Li Chen.

This is the place they arranged, and they came here early, so Li Chen couldn't be playing any tricks. Doesn't that mean he has real strength?

Many female disciples at the scene had eyes full of admiration. If they had known that the emperor was so handsome, why would they join a sect? They would have joined the harem directly!
After Li Chen sat down, he still had to perform what he was supposed to do.

"I invited everyone here this time to discuss the future planning and development of the sect."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he established the theme of the meeting.

Everyone in the main hall was very confused. Weren't they supposed to be discussing the issue of how to deal with Ding Tian Shang Ren? How did they end up talking about the sect's future plans?

But Li Chen didn't say anything, and they didn't dare to mention it.

He originally planned to use his powerful strength to force Li Chen to give him face and release Dingtian Shangren.

Now the leaders of these sects feel that if they dare to talk about this topic, it is hard to say whether Dingtian Shangren will come out, and they may go in to accompany Dingtian Shangren.

As Li Chen's agent, Ling Tian Shangren of Tianyan Divine Sect spoke up and echoed, repeating the manuscript that he and Pang Jin had reviewed.

The general purpose of this meeting was to tell all the sect leaders present that in order to prevent the emergence of a second Dingtian Shangren, the imperial court would establish certain connections with the major sects.

This kind of connection allows both parties to understand each other and benefit from it.

For example, now that war has broken out in the north, the imperial court can issue missions to have the monks from the sects attack some cities of the Snow Eagle Royal Court. Then the monks from the sects will not only have a place to train, but will also receive rewards.

If you can make achievements in the north, you can even establish your own power there, obtain some resource subsidies, and develop it. All of these are possible.

Not only in the north, but in other regions, if there is a so-called "bounty", tasks can be assigned to the monks of the sect.

Anyway, many of these people have nothing to do, so this will allow them to bring their abilities into play.

But this would pull the sect down from the altar, and its status above the secular world would disappear.

Li Chen also said this very simply: If you want to listen to me, then listen to me. If you don’t listen to me, I will kill you.

Jiuyuan Holy Land is only the first place where Li Chen will implement his policy, and he will also inform other alliances.

I have made it clear, if you think you have the ability to beat me, come and try. If you listen to my advice, then we can develop together.

After he finished speaking, the leaders of these sects began to discuss.

Li Chen also thought at that time that he could "enslave" these sects, but that was very troublesome and would take a lot of time to manage, which would simply increase his workload.

These monks from the sect are only afraid of him as a strong man, which does not mean they are afraid of others.

If conflicts arise between his servants and the monks of the sect, it could easily lead to a chaotic situation.

So Li Chen decided to try a different approach, which was to let the animals roam freely.

Li Chen didn't want to keep them in a cage, so he just treated them as free-range dogs. These dogs were very fierce, and they helped him bite people, so he would give them some bones.

It would be much more troublesome if they were kept in captivity. These sects would move into the imperial capital, and would even seek help from the royal family if they were threatened. Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?

Besides, with Li Chen's strength, he can indeed control the sect, but the rulers of future generations may not have such strength.

Once these sects move into the imperial capital, it will be difficult to get them to leave.

Just as the previous emperor did not leave Li Chen with a very bad mess, there was no need for Li Chen to leave trouble for the next emperor.

Li Chen came here to plan the sect's power for a secondary reason. His main purpose was to see how the women arranged by Fairy Youlan were doing.

After Li Chen’s observation just now, he can be sure that Fairy Youlan’s vision is no worse than that of the Queen Mother!
