Zhang Xing knew that this girl's little head was thinking of something, but he was sure that it was definitely not something good.
"But only these scales are beautiful. In fact, dragons are quite ugly."
Hearing Ruan Mei's words, Wen Jing was so angry that she suddenly accelerated and almost threw Ruan Mei off.
"You little girl are the ugly one!" Wen Jing couldn't help but say angrily.
"Ah?"
Ruan Mei was stunned when she heard the voice. She saw Wen Jing turn her huge head and look at her with a fierce look.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you could understand human language."
Wen Jing rolled her eyes at her, turned her head, and continued to fly.
But Ruan Mei's next words made Wen Jing so angry that she really wanted to throw her off.
"If I knew you could understand human language, I wouldn't have said you were ugly."
Zhang Xing turned his face to the side, pretending to enjoy the scenery, but he really didn't dare to look at Ruan Mei.
But it was useless. Ruan Mei was like a silly girl whose head was full of a hundred thousand whys. She kept asking this and that along the way.
A month later, in the capital of the Giant Hammer Empire, Giant Hammer Castle, Old Master Zheng Haisheng celebrated his 280th birthday.
The Zheng family was a super family in the empire and was also the imperial family's in-laws. They were the strongest and most powerful supporters.
However, Old Master Zheng was not very satisfied with the current emperor, William Chu.
On the one hand, the emperor was a mixed-race, and on the other hand, he was a dictator and warlike.
The empire had finally been stable for more than ten years. William Chu had also reached the age of fifty-one. He could no longer suppress his ambition and began to stir.
In the past ten years, he had been constantly recruiting and gathering a large number of warriors and magicians.
No matter their character, as long as their cultivation was above the Monarch Realm, they would all be taken under his command.
It was said that he was secretly colluding with the frightening assassin group.
Anyone who opposed him was either dismissed from office for a groundless crime or assassinated by assassins.
Now, only Old Master Zheng's faction could barely hold on in the court.
However, the Old Master had long stopped caring about politics and had retired from the position of Grand Preceptor for eighty years.
None of his descendants were successful, and the best of them were Samsung Zhanzun.
However, they were very close to Chu Huang. Although they were not as famous as the old man, they were still powerful figures in the court.
As for those who relied on the old man's power, they were all marginalized.
The old man had once reprimanded Chu Huang, but on the surface, Chu Huang was respectful. After that, he continued to do his own thing and ignored the old man.
The old man was so angry that his hair stood on end. He almost vomited blood, but there was nothing he could do.
Chu Huang invited two Five Star War Venerables, and both of them were conferred the title of Imperial Advisor.
The title of Imperial Preceptor was just an empty title. He basically did not participate in the politics of the imperial court.
Old Master Zheng Haisheng was the Grand Preceptor back in the day. He was in charge of the military, and even the Grand Marshal of the First Military Force had to listen to his orders.
Of course, some empires did not have the position of Grand Tutor.
Zhang Xing felt that these empires were a mixture of the Eastern and Western civilizations in the history of Earth.
Originally, Old Master Zheng did not want to hold a grand birthday banquet for his 280th birthday. However, for some reason, the family's juniors and Chu Huang insisted on celebrating the old man's birthday.
They said something about being filial and that the old man had worked hard for the empire all his life. He was selfless and worthy of the respect and pride of the people of the empire.
Old Master Zheng was very happy when he heard this. No matter how different their ideas of governing the country were, they were all doing it for the future of the empire.
Therefore, Old Master Zheng gladly accepted this suggestion. A smile appeared on his face as he felt that these juniors were pleasing to the eye.
However, he did not notice the coldness hidden in the depths of Chu Huang's eyes …
