Fantasy/Heroic: Heaven-Burning Divine Fire, Earthly Sovereign!

Golden light emanated from Yuwentuo's body, and the golden halo activated the Xuanyuan Sword, isolating the evil energy.

To prevent his mind from being harmed.

But Yuwen Tuo knew very well that if he relied on the power of the Xuanyuan Sword, there would be no need for him to come here.

He tried his best to make the Xuanyuan Sword not resist so strongly, while also letting his mind come into contact with the evil energy.

They wanted to enhance their righteous power by sensing evil energy.

He had heard Master Jinxia say that he possessed a righteous path within him, but due to insufficient opportunity, he had not been able to fully activate it.

Now is the time.

Golden sword light flowed from his body as the Xuanyuan Sword Body stubbornly resisted the invasion of evil energy.

Although Yuwen Tuo was ice cold all over, the traces of the Emperor's Righteous Path within him were slowly awakened by this aura.

He gathered a kingly aura, which emanated from his body to resist the evil energy.

Outside the tower, the Five Elders of Shu Mountain stared wide-eyed at the sight.

Master Qingwei exclaimed in surprise, "The Emperor of the Earth!"

They have many records in their possession.

Every so often, a great emperor is born between heaven and earth, inheriting the fortune of heaven and earth.

He wields the Xuanyuan Sword, a divine weapon created by the ancient Xuanyuan through the gathering of human creations.

Sweeping away demons and eliminating evil spirits is exactly the same as the purpose of their Shu Mountain sect.

"Is he the Earth Emperor?"

The other elders also stared wide-eyed, quite surprised.

Suddenly they realized something.

That means that Master Jinxia would not send his disciple to his death; he must have made some arrangements.

I never expected the arrangement to be like this.

His disciple was the Earth Emperor.

At this moment, the group felt reassured.

The Earthly Sovereign is born with the destiny of heaven and earth and must endure countless tribulations in the world.

Although there are difficulties at the moment, they should not be a big deal for him.

"Let's go back to the main hall first, and Junior Brother Yang will stay behind to keep watch."

Master Qingwei was much relieved and said with a smile.

The others did not object.

The Earth Emperor bears a great responsibility and a heavy destiny, so he naturally needs to undergo trials.

This is really nothing.

Master Qingwei led the three elders back to the main hall, leaving one elder to guard the tower.

A short while later, Xu Changqing arrived with Jing Tian.

"Master, elders."

Xu Changqing stepped forward to greet him.

"Greetings, Sect Leader and Three Elders."

Jing Tian then stepped forward and bowed.

He was now dressed in the robes of a Shushan Sect disciple, and his spirit and energy were even stronger, making him look like someone who had achieved success in cultivation.

"Young friend, what is his aptitude like?"

Master Qingwei asked casually.

"Reporting back to Master, Jing Tian's element is wind, and his aptitude is exceptional, far surpassing that of this disciple."

"I taught him the method three days ago, and he is now close to breaking through the mortal realm."

Xu Changqing had also seen geniuses.

Because he himself was a genius in cultivation.

However, compared to Jing Tian, ​​they are clearly no match.

Jing Tian, ​​having been showered with praise, held his head high with a hint of pride, seemingly waiting for the elders' approval.

"Oh?"

Master Qingwei had foreseen this.

But no one expected Jing Tian to be so talented.

"Would you be willing to join my Shu Mountain sect and become a disciple?"

Master Qingwei looked over with a serious expression.

Jing Tian was naturally very happy.

In just a few days, he went from an ordinary mortal to a cultivator sect.

Moreover, the sect leader of this cultivation sect even asked him if he wanted to join.

Just as he was about to agree, his eyes flickered, as if he had thought of something.

"I'll ask Brother Yuwen where he is now."

Jing Tian came to find Yuwen Tuo.

This is a very important matter, so naturally we should also consult Yuwen Tuo.

"He's not available to see you right now, but he should be able to come out in a few days."

Master Qingwei kept everyone in suspense.

"Then I'll wait until he comes out and ask him again!"

Jing Tian did not make the decision himself.

Yuwen Tuo brought him here, naturally intending for him to join the Shu Mountain sect.

However, even though he had the intention, he still had to ask Yuwen Tuo's opinion to show respect.

Master Qingwei praised him in his heart.

I think Jing Tian has a good character and a solid foundation; he's a talent worth cultivating.

He gave Xu Changqing a few more instructions and then let the two of them leave first.

He and the three elders sat cross-legged to rest, waiting for Yuwen Tuo to emerge from seclusion.

In Chang'an, all officials, prominent figures, wealthy families, and gentry received invitations.

Because it was the birthday of Prince Yang Guang of Jin.

The Prince of Jin's residence was bustling with activity, filled with famous figures coming and going.

Perhaps out of guilt for his previous treatment of Yang Guang, Yang Jian held a very grand birthday celebration, with the Crown Prince acting on his behalf and inviting numerous officials to offer their congratulations to the Prince of Jin.

Even Yang Su's confinement was lifted, allowing him to come and congratulate the Prince of Jin.

Both civil and military officials sent lavish gifts.

Yang Guang greeted and saw off guests with great propriety.

But there was no joy in his heart.

In his view, these things were not worth mentioning.

This was vastly different from what he had in mind.

He sat in the main seat drinking, and people around him would occasionally come up to offer him a toast.

He was just going through the motions, and didn't seem very interested.

At that moment, a ball of red light rolled over.

Yang Guang's eyes flashed, and upon closer inspection, he realized that it was not a red light at all, but Ning Ke dressed in a bright red dress, with her hair styled into two small braids tied into two bows, and adorned with two brightly blooming hibiscus flowers.

It looks very festive.

"Happy birthday, Your Highness Prince Jin!"

"It's you, Princess. What brings you here?"

"My grandfather and the others came to celebrate your birthday, so naturally I came along."

Ning Ke adopted a childlike demeanor, then picked up her cup and said, "A toast to His Highness Prince Jin!"

She imitated the adults, holding her wine glass and looking over.

However, it contains sweet fermented rice, not strong liquor.

Seeing her like this, Yang Guang couldn't help but laugh and clinked his wine cup with hers.

"Birthday gifts are a must. I found a secret room in my house with a scroll hidden inside, but I can't open it no matter what I do."

"Your Highness has fought in many battles and is very knowledgeable. Perhaps you can open it and it might bring good luck."

As she spoke, Ning Ke handed over an ancient-looking scroll.

Yang Guang glanced at it and smiled calmly.

I didn't pay too much attention to it.

What good things could a little girl possibly have?

The gifts from the Dugu family have already been delivered, so the young princess was certainly not sent by the Dugu family to deliver the gifts.

"Thank you very much, Princess."

Yang Guang gave a perfunctory reply and put the item into his sleeve.

After patiently coaxing the child for a few more minutes, Ning Ke was finally allowed to leave.

As darkness fell, the birthday banquet came to an end.

Yang Guang sat in the main hall, listening to the steward report on the gift list and the various people who came to offer their congratulations.

His eyes were gloomy as he wondered what use these things were.

What he wanted was that supreme power.

"You may leave!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Knowing that Yang Guang was in a bad mood, the steward quickly acknowledged and withdrew.

Only two servants remained outside the hall to take care of things.
