Some people had already guessed and confirmed some things.
But when it really happened, it would inevitably cause ripples in people's hearts!
The magnitude of the ripples depended on the importance of the matter to the person involved. The greater the importance, the stronger the ripples.
At this moment, on the right side of the Human Emperor, there was a ripple in the void where he was looking. Following that, there was a gentle voice!
"Your Majesty, you already have an answer in your heart. How can an outsider change your mind?"
At the same time, a back gradually appeared on the right side of the Human Emperor, attracting everyone's attention!
The white Daoist robe was elegant, and the purple hair made him look like a devil. The tall figure was like a bell spirit, and the wind and clouds between heaven and earth were changing constantly!
Hearing the voice and looking at the back, Xu Qing was expressionless, but his right hand was clenched so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand bulged.
He didn't need to recognize the voice. The back was enough for him to confirm the other party's identity!
A day ago, he had guessed the identity of the State Preceptor after the mud fox reminded him. But when he really saw the person, the shock turned into a storm in his heart!
He didn't know how this person could become the State Preceptor and appear here so openly!
He also didn't know what kind of relationship or deal the other party had with the Human Emperor.
He only knew that the other party was Zhu Zhao, who killed the Sixth Master and led the rebellion in Fenghai County. They were irreconcilable enemies.
He only knew that the other party was a crow that he had to kill. But Xu Qing was no longer the same as before. He wouldn't break down when he saw the Purple Qing Crown Prince again.
He could hide his extreme emotions in his heart and not show it on the outside!
Therefore, Xu Qing looked down and took a deep breath until he heard the voices of the people around him!
"Greetings, State Preceptor!" Everyone outside the hall lowered their heads and greeted respectfully!
Although the State Preceptor didn't have any real power in the human race, his status was second only to the Human Emperor and the Great Emperor!
At this moment, the Human Emperor noticed that everyone was greeting the State Preceptor. He smiled faintly and looked at the Ancient Emperor Planet!
As for the State Preceptor, who appeared beside him, he turned around and revealed the mask under his robe!
It was a white smiling face. It looked strange, but when people looked at it, they would instinctively ignore the existence of the mask. That was because the State Preceptor's eyes were more spirited than others. They were so bright that they attracted everyone's attention.
He nodded at the officials, and his gaze swept across everyone. In the end, his gaze landed on Xu Qing!
Xu Qing looked up and met his gaze!
The State Preceptor smiled!
He had his own pride and his own way of doing things. However, if it were someone else who was the Imperial Advisor today, they might have concealed their true identity due to certain reasons!
However, he was the Purple Azure Crown Prince. He would never hide his actions, nor would he influence his actions for a certain purpose!
That was why he appeared and took off the mask on his face.
He stopped.
At this moment, his true appearance was revealed before the eyes of all the officials!
This was the first time the officials had seen his face!
Before this, only the Human Emperor could see his face. As for others, he was always wearing a white robe and a white smiling face mask!
At this moment, as the mask was taken off, the face that was revealed in front of everyone caused everyone's expressions to change. Bewilderment rose in their hearts!
In fact, this face was seventy percent similar to Xu Qing's, but paler, colder, and more sinister!
However, his bright eyes seemed to contain no impurities and were incomparably clear!
Above his eyes were handsome and sword-like eyebrows, thin and lightly pursed lips, and a chiseled face.
All of these made the State Preceptor look like a white dragon between heaven and earth. He was extremely beautiful yet extremely cold!
This scene caused everyone outside the hall to fall silent. Because the State Preceptor and Xu Qing were similar not only in appearance, but also in character!
Although sorcery could achieve this, it was obviously not befitting of the State Preceptor's identity!
Therefore, there was only one explanation!
This explanation caused everyone to fall into deep thought. At the same time, they recalled the assassination in the Imperial Capital. At the same time, some people secretly glanced at the Human Emperor, not revealing their thoughts!
As for the State Preceptor, he did not care about everyone's gazes. At this moment, he was looking at Xu Qing with a smile and his usual gentle voice!
"Younger Brother, we meet again!"
Xu Qing looked at the State Preceptor calmly and did not speak!
"The assassination in the Imperial Capital was not done by me. I don't care about it, nor would I do it!"
The State Preceptor said with a smile. After that, he turned and sat beside the Human Emperor, looking at the human prodigies on the Ancient Imperial Planet with him!
The officials in front of the hall also did the same!
Xu Qing's expression remained the same, as if he hadn't seen Zi Qing today. He looked up at Ning Yan, who was on the Ancient Imperial Planet, and calculated the time in his heart!
He needed this action to disperse the storm in his heart!
It was quiet outside the hall, like the surface of a lake without any waves!
Everyone's hearts were filled with emotions. If they were to join forces, they would probably form a huge wave that could overturn everything!
Time passed bit by bit amidst the external tranquility and internal turmoil.
Very quickly, two hours passed!
The human prodigies on the Ancient Imperial Planet were also experiencing changes at this time!
Looking over, among the thousands of cultivators sitting cross-legged outside the Ancient Imperial Planet, auspicious signs appeared on some of their bodies. At the same time, there were also dazzling lights!
That represented success or near success. The more auspicious signs and dazzling lights there were, the higher the level of comprehension.
But even more people were still in the process of comprehending!
However, these successful cultivators did not comprehend the Heavenly Physique inheritance. Instead, they comprehended the inheritances left behind by the heroes below the Heavenly Physique realm!
There were mystiques and cultivation techniques inside. Although they were not as good as the Heavenly Physique inheritance, they were still unique. Being able to comprehend them was also a fortuitous encounter!
"That's the Fusion Sword Technique of Chen Qinghai, who followed the Great Emperor of the Sword Bearing Palace back then. Not bad, not bad. The top ten prodigies of the Sword Bearing Palace are indeed extraordinary. This is second only to the Heavenly Physique inheritance."
"It's not just Chen Qinghai. The Heavenly Physique of the martyrs has also been comprehended. Look at the Yin and Yang statues over there. This is the Black and White Fiend Transformation Technique described in ancient books. The person comprehending it looks unfamiliar. Judging from his clothes, he should be a disciple of the Divine Azure Universe Sect!"
As they watched, the silence outside the hall was broken. Some of the officials started chatting with each other again, and it gradually became lively.
As the number of successful cultivators increased, the Ancient Imperial Planet was filled with dazzling lights and auspicious signs!
Every time they succeeded, they would be sent out of the Ancient Imperial Planet and appear on the rainbow bridge. Everyone only had one chance to comprehend!
As for Xu Qing, his gaze fell on the Ancient Emperor Star, Ning Yan. Two hours had passed.
Ning Yan did not show any changes. He seemed to be working very hard, but it was to no avail.
Xu Qing was not in a hurry. Ning Yan's aptitude was not bad. Even if he did not attain the Heavenly King level in the end, he would definitely gain something!
At this moment, Xu Qing shifted his gaze away from Ning Yan and looked at the others. He continued to distract himself from the storm that was brewing in his heart!
As he looked around, although he did not recognize most of these prodigies, he could tell who the princes were from their robes. Xu Qing had seen a few of them before!
For example, the Third Princess!
She looked like the Seventh Prince!
This was the first time Xu Qing had seen the Seventh Prince since he arrived in the Imperial Capital. Xu Qing's gaze was cold as he looked at the Seventh Prince.
After focusing for a while, Xu Qing realized that there was no auspicious sign or glow coming from the Third Princess.
However, at this moment, Xu Qing's heart suddenly turned red. He shifted his gaze to an area of clouds that no one else was comprehending.
The clouds there were thinner than the other areas. One could even see the Ancient Imperial Planet's mountain range under the clouds!
What attracted Xu Qing's attention was the mountain range of the Ancient Tablet Star!
Although the distance was very far, and the Ancient Emperor Planet was only the first layer of clouds, Xu Qing could still feel a weak wave of energy coming from the mountain range!
This wave was very weak. It came from the mountain range and existed inside the Ancient Imperial Planet. It was more like a summoning!
Xu Qing muttered to himself as he looked at the thin clouds outside the Ancient Imperial Planet. There was no one around, but there were still other people trying to comprehend.
However, they did not seem to have noticed this summoning. It was as if there was a special summon.
What is that?
Is it also Xu Cheng?
Xu Qing pondered. Compared to other people, he realized that this so-called inheritance was mostly formed by some consciousness drifting in the clouds!
In comparison, the summoning from the mountain range seemed more like the aura of something substantial.
While Xu Qing was muttering to himself, the clouds on the Ancient Imperial Planet suddenly sped up. The clouds rose and covered all the prodigies. Only one spot was exposed and became the focus of attention!
This was because the clouds were caused by this person. From afar, it looked like a burning whirlpool. With this person as the center, the whirlpool rumbled and spun in all directions!
There was also an ancient sacred statue with majesty and holiness rising from this person's body. It was very special. It was at least 10,000 feet tall and shook one's heart. There were also golden flames burning the heavens and earth!
"Heavenly Weather Inheritance."
"This is the Dao technique of Heavenly Venerable Flame Halberd, who is ranked 10th among the 108 Heavenly Marquises!"
"The one who comprehended it is … the grandson of the Grand Commandant, Meng Yunbai."
The various factions and itinerant cultivators in the Imperial Capital were all looking at the Ancient Imperial Planet. At this moment, they were all moved!
Even the other people who were trying to comprehend it opened their eyes and looked in Meng Yunbai's direction. They had different expressions. Some were complicated, some were envious, and some were indignant!
The officials outside the palace were smiling. The Human Emperor was appreciative!
Only Xu Qing's gaze swept past Meng Yunbai before he looked in the direction of the mountain range that was covered!
"The summoning for me is stronger …"
