Chapter 120 The Empress's Tower
After the ninth princess left along the tunnel under the sacrificial platform under layers of protection, Xuan Yiye and Ye Ya slowly left with the flow of people.
Just the news that the Ninth Princess made an appearance and gave a speech could gather nearly one-tenth of the people in the city. The influence of the Ninth Princess indeed exceeded Xuan Yi's expectations.
But what he was thinking about was not this, but the important treasure lost by the Ninth Legion.
Since the Ninth Princess is still alive and kicking to give a speech, and is even eager to compete with someone like Di Yungui, then the lost treasure must not be the Ninth Princess herself, but if Dark Star can assist in the search with this intensity, then the lost treasure must be the most precious. Heavy treasure.
Could it be said to be Chiba Liubi?
The only token of the Ninth Princess in the past thousand years.
Or is it the sword of the first-generation hero Ge Sheng? After all, Xia and the Ninth Princess have been entangled for nearly a thousand years. The contemporary Ninth Princess Ye Xuan is likely to be holding Ge Sheng's sword. If the sword is lost, there may be such a large battle.
Or is it the secret method inherited by the Ninth Princess? The secret book of Tiandao Sword?
There are so many good things at this level of the Ninth Legion that it makes my head hurt just to think about them.
But Xuan Yi was sure of one thing. After sending Anya off, he would stay in Star City and try to find the valuable treasure lost by the Ninth Legion. Even if he couldn't find it, there would be no loss. Once he found it, he might be able to ask for a thousand dollars. Star test quota.
For a force like the Ninth Legion, the Star Master will definitely issue them invitation quotas for the Thousand Star Trial. As usual, the two Ninth Princesses will not participate in the Thousand Star Trial, so the quota is destined to be vacant and reserved for their descendants. If Xuan Yi can find the treasure, it won't be too difficult to get a spot.
And if he really gets this quota, he can save that powerful sapphire and use it to do more valuable things.
After all, it is a powerful weapon that can easily kill ordinary Dongxuan. If it can be brought to Qianxing for trial, he will have one more bargaining chip to deal with those monsters.
It's not like he hasn't thought about continuing to offer sacrifices to the Evil God Doubi to obtain more rewards, but that would be like a fisherman asking endlessly like a goldfish, and one day it would lead to terrible consequences.
Praying to the evil god is essentially the same as praying to Xuanji, except that the other party's temporary charges are lower.
However, the free one is the most expensive, so as long as there is no way out, Xuan Yi will still try not to ask for help from the two.
While Xuan Yi was thinking about it, Ye Ya had another thought.
She herself is the lost treasure, so she will definitely not do the job of looking for it while riding a donkey.
Although she couldn't guarantee that Xuan Yi would not ride on a donkey to find him.
After all, he had told himself that he wanted to take part in the Thousand Stars Trial, and he would take part even if there was a slim chance. Although Xuan Yi claimed that he had the means to enter Mount Sumeru at the time, no matter how good the means were, there would be no use for the quota of the Ninth Legion. Comfortable.
But it's not that Ye Ya is unwilling to help Xuan Yi give him this place, but because she doesn't want to go back for the time being, and even if she does go back, with the tyrant Aunt Ye Xuan around, her words will not be of much use.
Although it was as effective as usual, she didn't have to run away from home if she wanted to be effective.
And - although Jiao Yue said that the Ninth Legion had lost a valuable treasure, it was actually Aunt Ye Xuan who conveyed her attitude through Jiao Yue's mouth: that her escape this time would not depose her as the Ninth Princess. But you must accept the corresponding punishment.
She didn't like Ye Xuan's attitude at all.
Although she has always respected Aunt Ye Xuan, because of this, she believed that she could not be like Aunt Ye Xuan, and she also believed that she could not sit in a position of great responsibility like the Ninth Princess.
The most valuable thing about people is self-awareness. One thing is that they don't like it, and the other is that they can't do it.
What's more, she doesn't want to bear such a heavy responsibility, a responsibility that can make people breathless and crush their bones.
...
...
Although the two teenagers were once again in the same bed with different dreams and each had their own secrets, after a short discussion, Ye Ya still agreed to the travel route planned by Xuan Yi. It's all fun anyway, right?
They walked through Star City Plaza, which is the ceremonial area almost located in the center of Star City, and headed to Star City's quietest and busiest central business district.
Here, tranquility and prosperity can coexist.
If Star City's slums are the city's most unsightly festering wound, then this central business district is its most gorgeous outerwear.
It has the most branches of multinational chambers of commerce in the entire Star City, the most convenient transportation, the most high-end restaurants and hotels, the most dazzling array of world treasures, the most landmark buildings, and the most lavish gold sales cave.
As early as thousands of years ago, this place was a popular place for those silver-haired and silver-eyed Star City nobles to drink and party. It was famous for its elegant environment and being far away from the noisy and busy city. Therefore, when Yongyao Supreme planned to build the Tower of Heaven here, countless people The nobles jointly objected, and the protest papers flew like snowflakes onto the desk of the Empress of Chang'an. Some even knelt down outside the empress's palace to protest against the empress for placing the ferocious-framed steel monster in their elegant and leisurely back garden.
The Empress of Chang'an has been on the throne for too long, so most of the young people have forgotten why the Empress took the position of Star Lord in the first place.
With her own hands, she sent the previous star master back to the star sea. With such a large star city and such a large hidden clan, no one dared to oppose her authority.
Because she was once the most powerful weapon forged in this city. She fought for them and killed countless people, making the whole world tremble for her.
But when one day, the weapons turned against them and the blades were pointed at them, they realized in despair that in front of the butcher knife they forged, they were no more powerful than the pigs who had been slaughtered by their necks in the past.
It's just that a hundred years later, although the appearance of the once beautiful girl has not changed much, she increasingly dislikes killing, which she was once best at.
She just sat in the palace deep in the courtyard, Juanjuan took out a pen, wrote a few words and then spread the word.
The few nobles who danced the most happily were hung on the flagpole outside the city, and their silver eyes were pecked out bit by bit by the doves. Then the location of the Tower of Heaven was also changed from the original location of the Central Business District. The area was changed to the commercial area.
Someone who is not afraid of the dead asked the empress, since you have decided to move, why do you need to kill them and kill their corpses.
Empress Chang'an happened to be in a good mood at that time, so she answered him.
If it were me in the past, no matter how many of you objected to what I wanted to do, if I killed them all, there would probably be no one left to object.
But this is not good. Many people told me that killing people does not solve the problem. Even Ye Qing, who is the best at killing people, the thing she hates the most is killing people.
My brother spent decades teaching me how to rule, but I wasn't really good at it, I just barely pretended to rule.
Therefore, I pretend to listen to your advice and build my tower in another place. However, advice also comes with a price. If you are not willing to give up your advice, then I still advise you to give me peace of mind.
Let me spend my time in more meaningful places.
Thanks to classmate Kong Xian for the reward == (Also, explaining the endings of the characters in the previous book one by one is actually a happy and unhappy thing.
I originally planned to let Xingxi live in seclusion at the end of the story, and even open an orphanage or a small hotel or something. However, since there must be a Lich King, she can only pretend and work hard to be the empress for three hundred years. )
