"Miss Ling!
It's Miss Ling! "
"Miss Ling is finally here. I thought she wasn't coming!"
Seeing Liunian Ling walk out of the Void Gate, the surrounding Immortal sword wielders all stood up to welcome her. Their attitude was much more respectful than when Guhan had appeared … From this, one could see how much influence the Liunian Family had in the human world. It was not something that Guhan, who had suddenly appeared, could compare to.
In fact, the human world's attitude towards Guhan was still a little vague. The appearance of the Ocean Emperor was a great thing, and everyone came to congratulate Guhan.
However, deep down, they did not really approve of Guhan … It was because of Guhan's identity. Although Guhan could defeat the Flood Level Yuan Kou and become an Emperor Sword wielder, he might be able to crush everyone and start a new era.
However, Gu Han was still a Spirit Sword level sword wielder at the moment. Becoming an Immortal Sword level and an Emperor Sword level was not something that could be achieved with just one's abilities. The key was to see if one could gain the recognition of an Emperor Sword level Swordmistress.
Before Guhan could truly synchronize with an Emperor Sword Swordmistress, anything was possible. Perhaps in the future, Guhan would fade into the crowd.
Of course, the most important thing was that these people were very jealous of Guhan. Why did the Ocean Emperor's good fortune fall into his hands? Why didn't it fall into their hands!
Guhan was also aware of this situation. Other than feeling a little unhappy and sad, he did not have any other thoughts.
Things like prestige and experience needed time to accumulate. In the future, these people would sooner or later grovel under his authority.
…
"Greetings, seniors!" Liunian Ling greeted the surrounding Immortal sword wielders.
"Ling, no need to be so polite!" These Immortal sword wielders grabbed Liunian Ling's hand, indicating that she did not need to be so polite.
Who am I?
"Ling …" Actually, just like these immortal sword wielders, Guhan was very excited about Liunian Ling's appearance. After all, this was the first time Guhan had seen Liunian Ling after more than two years.
Most of the time, Guhan would silently think of Liunian Ling. Although he would not shed tears for her, he could not help but feel sour in his heart. She was the only woman who could make Guhan feel this way other than the Swordmistress and Artoria.
"Liunian Ling greets Your Majesty. On behalf of the Liunian Family, Liunian Ling congratulates Your Majesty!"
Compared to Guhan's excitement, Liunian Ling's expression was much calmer. She gave Guhan a very standard greeting, took a few steps back, and turned to Ying Zheng. "Brother Yaoguang, since you're here, don't be in a hurry to leave. Let's congratulate Your Majesty together."
"Alright!"
Ying Zheng nodded. Although he did not know why Liunian Ling was helping him this time, with Liunian Ling's help, Ying Zheng would no longer be afraid of Guhan. Naturally, there was no need for him to be in a hurry to leave.
In fact, Ying Zheng did not want to leave at all, because he desperately wanted to make a deal with Guhan.
Ever since he left Shanhai Pass, Ying Zheng had been very popular in the human society with the title of being the human ancestor, the savior of mankind, and the third Emperor sword wielder.
More importantly, after Ying Zheng obtained the eleven drops of Zu Wu's blood essence, he could not wait to become the real Zu Wu through Zu Wu's blood essence.
Ying Zheng was indeed a genius of the Wu people. It only took him two years to fuse all eleven drops of Zu Wu's blood essence into his body. His strength was more than ten times stronger than when he was in Shanhai Pass, and he even absorbed the Power of Rules in Zu Wu's blood essence.
Ying Zheng was confident that even if he faced a flood-level Yuan Kou, he would still be able to put up a fight. That was why Ying Zheng had the confidence to find trouble with Guhan.
However, no matter how hard Ying Zheng tried, he was always a little bit away from the last step. He could not advance to the level of the real Zu Wu. At most, he could only advance to the limit of the Great Magus.
Only then did Ying Zheng realize that all twelve drops of Zu Wu's blood essence were indispensable. If he could not find the last Great Magus, Chang 'e, and obtain the drop of Zu Wu's blood essence guarded by Chang' e, Ying Zheng would never be able to become the real Zu Wu.
Because the world was peaceful at the moment, the defense in Shanhai Pass was not as tight as before, or rather, it was very lax.
Therefore, Ying Zheng snuck into Shanhai Pass very easily. Using the mystic art of the Wu people, he searched the place for a while, and he really found the clue left behind by Chang 'e. He learned that Chang' e had given the last drop of Zu Wu's blood essence to Guhan … Or perhaps, this clue was left behind by Chang 'e on purpose, because she knew that Ying Zheng would find it sooner or later. Therefore, the fact that Chang' e gave the last drop of Zu Wu's blood essence to Guhan became a very malicious act.
When Ying Zheng learned the truth of the matter, he did not think much of it. He felt that with his current strength, it would be a piece of cake to defeat Guhan. If Guhan knew what was good for him and took the initiative to give him the blood essence of Zu Wu's blood essence, then that would be fine. But if he did not, Ying Zheng did not mind using force to make Guhan yield.
Unfortunately, Guhan was missing at that time, and Ying Zheng had no idea where Guhan was. So, he could only drop the matter … To Ying Zheng's great surprise, when he received the news of Guhan again, Guhan had already cooperated with Long Shi Jiandi to defeat three Hong level Yuan Kou's, and had even become the Emperor of the Ocean, which was somewhat inexplicable.
This made Ying Zheng feel jealous and resentful. So, he planned to embarrass Guhan during Guhan's ascension ceremony, and even seize the position of the Emperor of the Ocean, using it to force Guhan to give him the last drop of Zu Wu's blood essence.
Originally, Ying Zheng thought that his plan was foolproof. With his strength that was infinitely close to the strength of an Emperor Sword level sword wielder, he could easily defeat Guhan, the lucky guy.
But Ying Zheng never thought that before he could fight with Guhan, he would be scared off by the two hidden auras …
And what was even more unexpected to Ying Zheng was that Liunian Ling, who was originally standing on the side of Guhan, was standing with him today, and even wanted to help him … Obviously, when they were in Shanhai Pass, Liunian Ling also wanted to kill him.
But Liunian Ling's tone did not sound like she was pretending. Instead, there was a bit of sincerity in it, which made Ying Zheng finally decide to stay and see what was really going on. Anyway, Ying Zheng felt that even if he could not defeat her, he could still run away.
…
"Brother Yaoguang, take a seat!"
Liunian Ling found a seat and sat down, then pointed to the seat next to her and said to Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng smiled and sat down obediently.
This seat was originally prepared for the Immortal Sword level sword wielder. Ying Zheng was unwilling to sit on it previously, as he felt that it would be embarrassing.
But now that Liunian Ling invited him to sit, Ying Zheng went with the flow and sat on Liunian Ling's words.
Seeing Ying Zheng and Liunian Ling sit at the same time, the guests present were a little disappointed, but at the same time, they were relieved.
They were disappointed because the guests present thought that they would be able to see an exciting battle, but they were relieved because the conflict between humans had been suppressed in the end. No one present had shed all pretenses of cordiality, so the coronation ceremony could continue.
"Prime Minister Turtle, continue with the next ceremony!"
Guhan said to Prime Minister Turtle. Prime Minister Turtle nodded and shouted, "The ascension ceremony will now begin, Your Majesty Emperor of the Sea, please take your seat!"
The so-called "take your seat" actually meant to be seated. The Emperor of the Sea's Dragon Throne behind Guhan immediately bloomed with a magnificent light, as if it was welcoming its owner.
And Guhan did not stand on ceremony and sat on the Emperor of the Sea's Dragon Throne.
"Clap clap clap clap!"
Suddenly, there was a lonely applause in the hall. Everyone saw Li Bai, Misaka Mikoto, and the other Yuan Kou's area suddenly applauding in unison … On the other hand, the humans themselves did not react for a while.
"Clap clap clap!"
Fortunately, Long Shi Jiandi reacted quickly. Less than a second after Yuan Kou's applause sounded, he also began to applaud. Long Shi Jiandi's applause also inspired the other guests present.
There was a thunderous applause in the hall. Even if some people were reluctant, for the common interests of humans, they had to start applauding and cheering for Guhan's seat. Otherwise, they would become a laughing stock in front of the Yuan Kou's!
"Sooner or later, I will make all of you applaud me with all your heart!"
Guhan sighed helplessly in his heart when he saw that the audience's hearts were divided. At the same time, he said to himself.
Guhan believed that it would not be long before all humans would applaud him sincerely.
"Next, let's invite Your Majesty Emperor of the Sea to give a speech!" Prime Minister Turtle said. The guests below the stage also learned to be obedient and began to applaud in cooperation.
"Dear guests and distinguished guests, welcome to my ascension ceremony!" During the ascension ceremony, Guhan naturally had to give a speech.
However, as soon as Guhan opened his mouth, his words were a bit harsh.
"I know that many of you here do not think that I am qualified to sit in this seat!" After saying this, Guhan glanced at all the guests below the stage.
Those ordinary people naturally lowered their heads in fear, but many of the sword bearers raised their heads high and looked directly into Guhan's eyes … especially those sword bearers of Immortal Sword Rank. Except for Sword Immortal Ling Xu and Sword Immortal Pirate, the rest of the sword bearers of Immortal Sword Rank had a somewhat different look in their eyes.
"I also know that in the eyes of all of you, my position as Sea Emperor really came out of nowhere. It is as if it fell from the sky and smashed me on the head!"
Gu Han sneered, "However, I would also like to ask everyone to think about it. If the Sea Emperor's throne were to fall from the sky, who would be able to catch it at the first moment and not be crushed to death by this throne?"
