The True Martial Emperor had left.
Everyone's hearts were burning, and they couldn't calm down for even a moment.
They looked at Long Chen with respect, envy, and some hatred. Of course, there were also complicated emotions like the Hall Master of Hanwu Hall.
Ye Futu had been taken away. What else could he do?
They had been completely defeated this time, and they had lost miserably. They probably wouldn't be able to raise their heads for a long time, especially in front of Long Chen.
The Sacred Martial Emperor was second only to one person and above tens of thousands.
According to the laws of the True Martial Emperor Palace, all martialists except martial venerables had to kneel before the Sacred Martial Emperor, including the Hall Master of Hanwu Hall.
Long Chen was the Sacred Martial Emperor now.
Lin Junyao and Wenren Xi heaved a sigh of relief after finishing their business. They smiled and said to Long Chen, "Subordinate Wenren Xi greets the Sacred Martial Emperor."
"Subordinate Lin Junyao greets the Sacred Martial Emperor."
The two martial venerables first expressed their obedience and respect to Long Chen.
From this day on, only one person among the hundreds of millions of disciples in the True Martial Emperor Palace could order Long Chen around. Everyone else had to obey Long Chen's orders. This was power, monstrous power.
This lofty status affected the True Martial Emperor Palace's lifeline. No matter where they went or who they interacted with, they had to think twice about whether they could provoke the True Martial Emperor Palace.
"With this status, I believe I will be treated fairly in the Sword Spirit Emperor Palace."
Long Chen would make them understand that he wasn't a toad. He was absolutely worthy of Lingxi. Even if Lingxi became the new Sword Spirit Emperor, he would become the True Martial Emperor and marry her.
Of course, Long Chen didn't become the Sacred Martial Emperor just for his own personal affairs. He had promised the True Martial Emperor that he would fight to protect the True Martial Emperor Palace. He would take away the Lord of the Wronged's heart and suppress him.
In the end, he would fight to the death with the Lord of the Wronged.
The survival of the Imperial Palace was closely related to each individual.
These were all responsibilities. Long Chen had so many people he cared about in the True Martial Emperor Palace. This place had become Long Chen's second home. Hence, he had to protect this place.
"What are you still standing there for?" Wenren Xi let out a rare laugh.
At his signal, almost everyone from Wenren Xi's faction and Lin Junyao's faction knelt on the ground. All the martial artists were completely convinced and obeyed this new Sacred Martial Imperial Emperor. Even those on Ye Futu's side, those who had once served Long Chen.
Embarrassed, those who had been pointing fingers at Long Chen had no choice but to lower their heads and bow to Long Chen.
The river flows east for thirty years, and the river flows west for thirty years.
At this moment, Long Chen was already an existence that they could only look up to from afar.
More likely, he was still that young.
His future was limitless.
After a few scattered shouts, everyone finally shouted in unison, "Greetings, Holy Martial Emperor."
"Holy Martial Imperial Emperor, unite the world for thousands of years."
Long Chen smiled.
To be honest, he was a little uncomfortable with this scene. After all, power was a symbol of sacrifice for him. In order to bear this worship, he might even pay with his life in the future. But he didn't think he didn't know.
Dao. Everyone had their own pursuits. Perhaps this was the value he was pursuing. Yang Chen was the opposite.
He had been enslaved for half his life. Now he just wanted a free life.
"Get up." Long Chen wasn't a person who put on airs.
After summoning everyone, he turned around, looked at everyone, and said in a sincere tone, "Everyone, the Emperor trusted me and let me take on this heavy responsibility. I won't say anything else, but please pay attention to my future performance.
Please pay attention to my future performance and give me an explanation. "
Long Chen wouldn't say anything he couldn't do.
His sincere tone made those who had a grudge against him suddenly have a good impression of him. Even the Great Emperor Zhenwu valued him so much. He couldn't be bad.
Long Chen was going to take the heart of the Lord of the Tragic City for them in the future. He was risking his life alone. In fact, Long Chen had done a lot of good deeds.
Everyone stood up.
Long Chen thought of Yang Chen immediately. Yang Chen was beside him, watching Long Chen's success with a smile on his face.
After today's battle, the two became friends. Long Chen cherished each of his friends, so he said, "Everything is gone. It's not a bad idea to stay in the palace."
Yang Chen shook his head with a smile. "No, it wasn't easy for me to decide. I want to go out and explore the world with my own identity. I want to explore those unknown areas and experience the life that belongs to me.
Maybe I'll encounter many unexpected situations. That's the life I want. "
Since that was the case, Long Chen didn't force him anymore.
He was happy for Yang Chen. It was very difficult for a person to find his own pursuit.
"I look forward to our next meeting," Long Chen said with a smile.
Everyone looked at them in confusion. They didn't know how this friendship came about.
Yang Chen said with a smile, "Thank you so much. Your future will be very heavy, and it won't be easy. You might even lose your life. You won't regret it."
"Because this is what I'm pursuing." Long Chen quickly answered his question.
Yang Chen understood.
He looked at Long Chen with admiration. Then, in a carefree manner, he quickly left the world that had imprisoned him before Ye Futu returned.
He went to pursue his own life.
After Yang Chen left, Long Chen started to look at himself.
Next, it should be time to refine the Golden Demon Suppression Column and transfer the heart of the Lord of the Tragic City to his own Kingdom of God. These things would be arranged by the Great Emperor Zhenwu. Long Chen only needed to welcome the emperor ten days later.
The emperor's coronation ceremony would be enough.
This was a very grand ceremony. The coronation venue was Mount Monarch on the Imperial Star. It was the highest mountain in the Imperial Star. Like the Martial God Palace, it was also a forbidden area. On Mount Monarch, there were statues of the Great Emperor Zhenwu from ancient times.
There were hundreds of statues of Zhenwu Great Emperors in the Imperial Palace. Of course, some of them were left out.
Mount Monarch was a much more sacred place than the Martial God Palace.
Ordinary Saint Martial Emperors weren't qualified to be crowned on Mount Monarch.
Only the Great Emperor Zhenwu was qualified.
However, Long Chen got the permission of the Great Emperor Zhenwu to break this precedent. Ten days later, hundreds of millions of disciples on the Imperial Star would all be arranged to the foot of Mount Monarch to witness this grand coronation ceremony. The coronation ceremony was officially announced to the world.
Then, he officially announced it to the world, letting all the factions in the Three Regions and Nine Realms know that Long Chen had become the Sacred Martial Emperor.
This was an official event. The Great Emperor Zhenwu was personally participating, so it was destined to be grand.
Long Chen didn't mind. He was just following the ancestral teachings and performing some ceremonies. However, this was the Great Emperor Zhenwu's order, so he probably had to participate. The next time the Great Emperor appeared, he would probably take him to the Yellow Territory.
The Metal Demon Suppressing Column.
That was the Saint Martial Emperor's exclusive Dao artifact.
It had eight Dao patterns and was ranked second among all the Dao artifacts of the True Martial Emperor Palace.
The first was the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda with nine Dao patterns.
Long Chen looked around and saw the Hall Master of Cambrian Hall.
He naturally held a grudge. This guy had embarrassed him a lot. Now that his backer had fallen, Long Chen's status was even higher than his backer.
In the blink of an eye, Long Chen walked in front of the Hall Master of Cambrian Hall.
The Hall Master of Cambrian Hall lowered his head, his expression conflicted. He thought to himself that this kid had indeed come for revenge. The dignified Saint Martial Emperor actually had such a vengeful personality …
Of course, if it were him, this would obviously be very normal.
Given Long Chen's ruthless personality, the Hall Master of Cambrian Hall was a little nervous. He was really afraid that Long Chen would go too far to deal with him.
"Raise your head," Long Chen said casually.
Everyone looked over, their eyes full of anticipation.
The Hall Master of Cambrian Hall gritted his teeth and raised his head. His originally arrogant face was now a little trembling. He stammered, "Saint Martial Emperor, you have to uphold the righteous commandments and put the overall situation first. Could it be that you have just become the Saint Martial Emperor?
Are you going to make an example out of me? "
He had thrown caution to the wind. He actually dared to say this.
Long Chen laughed when he heard this. Just as the Hall Master of Cambrian Hall breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Long Chen didn't dare to deal with him, Long Chen's expression suddenly became stern. He shouted coldly, "Kneel."
The Hall Master of Cambrian Hall was startled, but he didn't move.
He suddenly saw that Wenren Xi and Lin Junyao were behind Long Chen, and the people behind him hurriedly retreated, afraid that they would be affected. Long Chen was now a very famous person. If he went against him …
Thinking of this, the Hall Master of Cambrian Hall felt extremely humiliated. He told himself that he had to swallow the humiliation, so he gritted his teeth, knelt on the ground again, and said loudly, "May I ask what orders Saint Martial Emperor has for me?"
This guy really had no backbone. Long Chen didn't want to deal with him, lest people accuse him of abusing his power. A little shock was enough, lest they looked down on him.
He leaned close to the Hall Master of Cambrian Hall's ear and suddenly said loudly, "In ten days, you will be fully responsible for the coronation ceremony of Mount Monarch. Within ten days, complete the organization's publicity, let the hundreds of millions of disciples enter the ceremony in an orderly manner, and publicize it to the outside world.
If there are any mistakes, bring your head to me. "
He spoke so loudly that the Hall Master of Cambrian Hall was scared out of his wits and almost fell to the ground. When he realized that Long Chen was just giving out orders, his face turned red.
Seeing this scene, everyone burst into laughter.
The Hall Master of Cambrian Hall clenched his teeth and said sullenly, "Yes, I will definitely complete the task."
"That's enough. Everyone, disperse. See you in ten days."
In ten days, his reputation would truly shake the world, and he would become an important figure.
Feng Zhilin stood silently behind Lin Junyao, looking at this young man. She was someone who had watched Long Chen grow up. At this moment, Long Chen was already a figure whose status in the Zhenwu Imperial Domain was second only to the Zhenwu Great Emperor.
She was sincerely happy for Long Chen.
But she always felt that something was missing.
