The banquet was lively, not only because of Emperor Candle Heaven, but also because of Lu Li's arrival.
Many emperors were interested in Lu Li for two reasons. First, how did he come back and what did he go through?
Secondly, he was clearly only at the Fifth Tribulation realm. Why did he have Origin Energy and a Dharma Idol?
This was especially so for the second point. This made countless Thearchs curious. Some even suspected that it was just a rumor.
That being said, it was a fact that Lu Li suppressed the Cang Family by himself and killed many demons. They had to believe it.
Therefore, before the banquet even started, a few Overlords had already arrived. They sat together and chatted while waiting for Lu Li to bring them over.
Lu Li was led to the hall by the Family Master of the Qu Family. The Family Master of the Qu Family left after he brought Lu Li in. This was a banquet of the Emperor Realm. Lu Li was not qualified to attend.
"Hahaha!"
Seven Great Emperor Realm warriors had arrived. An old man with a glowing face walked over and asked, "You must be Lu Li.
I am Meng Qi, people call me the Strange Emperor! "
Facing a group of emperors, Lu Li dared not to be disrespectful. He bowed at once and said, "Greetings, Your Excellency!"
Lu Li calling himself a junior made the Wonder Emperor very happy. It must be known that in the Third Heaven, seniority was not determined by age, but by realm.
For example, when Lu Li reached the Emperor Realm, did he have to bow to a warrior of the fourth tribulation who was tens of thousands of years old and call himself a junior?
Lu Li had origin energy and could release Dharma Idol, which was no different from a warrior of the Emperor Realm. It was just that he didn't have the might and body of an emperor yet.
These were all trivial matters. Origin Energy was the foundation. Without Origin Energy, having a Thearch Body was useless.
Therefore, Lu Li's modesty and politeness left a good impression on the Qi Emperor. He took Lu Li's hand and introduced him one by one.
All seven of them were at the Great Emperor Realm. Five of them were famous in the Third Heaven. Lu Li was not familiar with the Third Heaven but he had heard of their names.
The other two were reclusive emperors. Lu Li had never heard of them.
"Eh?"
A middle-aged warrior with a long beard and a luxurious robe asked Lu Li with curiosity, "Lu Li, why can't your Dharma Shield sense it?"
Not only was this Overlord curious about this matter, but the other Overlord Ranks were also curious.
As soon as Lu Li came in, the low-level warriors tried to sense him, but none of them could sense Lu Li's Dharma Realm.
If there was no Dharma Realm, then where did Lu Li get his Origin Energy?
Lu Li smiled. His hand glowed. The presence of the source of energy permeated the hall. The Great Emperors took a look and were amazed.
They had all broken through to the Monarch Realm many years ago and were very familiar with Origin Energy. With a single glance, they could tell that this was the real deal and not a fake.
"Little brat, your Dharma World is actually in the Divine Elixir?"
A short old man blinked his eyes in confusion. "Your divine elixir doesn't have any divine power. We can't sense the Dharma Realm through the divine elixir?
You're really strange, kid. "
Lu Li grinned but didn't explain. The warrior didn't ask any more questions.
After all, everyone had their own secrets. If Lu Li didn't want to tell them, they wouldn't force him.
Rustle, rustle, rustle ~
Right at that moment, footsteps came from the corridor. Then four people walked in. The leader was a dignified old man in a white robe with extraordinary bearing. There was a suffocating sense of oppression coming from him. Even with Lu Li's current abilities, he still felt pressured.
Next to the old man in a white robe was a lady with an air of nobility. She wore a phoenix crown and a phoenix robe. She looked like a queen.
Lu Li had seen her shadow before. It was Phoenix Empress.
On the other side of the old man in a white robe was an elegant middle-aged man. He wore a moon-white robe and had a gorgeous beard. The gentle smile on his face left a good impression.
Sunlight Emperor!
Lu Li recognized him right away since he had seen a portrait of this man.
Walking at the back was an old man in a black robe with a black sword in his arms. His expression was gloomy and his eyes were like those of a viper, making people uncomfortable.
Emperor Torch of Heaven, Phoenix Empress, Sunlight Emperor, and his old servant!
Lu Li could tell who they were at a glance. People in the hall stopped talking and bowed to Emperor Torch of Heaven. Nobody dared to disrespect him, be it because of his identity or his abilities.
Emperor Torch of Heaven's eyes were calm and tranquil. He glanced to Lu Li and suddenly said with a smile, "Heroes come from the young. When I was your age, I had just reached the sixth tribulation. Lu Li, you have reached the Emperor Realm directly. Congratulations."
Lu Li sneered to himself but he still bowed politely and said, "Greetings, Emperor Torch of Heaven. You flatter me."
Lu Li didn't salute to Sunlight Emperor and Phoenix Empress. Their families had tried to hunt him down and he almost died many times.
Phoenix Empress put on a meaningful smile. She stared at Lu Li and said, "Lu Li, we meet again. I didn't know that a kid could reach the Emperor Realm.
This is truly a surprise to this empress. "
Lu Li said with a smile, "Phoenix Empress, you are surprised that I can live until now, right?"
As soon as Lu Li finished his words, the atmosphere in the hall became more stifling.
They were all at the Emperor Realm and all of them were sophisticated. Even if they had conflicts, they wouldn't let it out. But Lu Li felt like he was going to fall out with them.
Phoenix Empress smiled. Ignoring Lu Li's provocation, she said, "A sword's edge can only be sharpened. Without that, you wouldn't have achieved what you have now, right?
Lu Li, we had some misunderstandings in the past. Now that we are facing enemies, can we let bygones be bygones? "
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Sunlight Emperor laughed as well and said, "Speaking of which, my unfilial descendants also had some misunderstandings with Lu Li.
Lu Li … do you want me to call them over and apologize to you in person? "
"Eh?"
Lu Li was surprised. Phoenix Empress and Sunlight Emperor were being so easy to talk to?
In front of so many Emperor-ranked experts, the two of them had put down their pride and arrogance.
Even though they didn't apologize, their tone and attitude were humble. Lu Li was only a quasi Emperor who hadn't even condensed his body. How could he afford to be like this?
There must be a reason for this abnormality!
Lu Li raised his eyebrows. Before he could say anything, Emperor Candle Heaven said, "Okay, it is all in the past, some petty grudges. It is not worth mentioning in the face of the catastrophe of the human race.
Lu Li, today, I will be the peacemaker. From today on, the resentment between you and Emperor Yang and Phoenix Empress is over, right?
Anyone who dares to mention this in the future will be disrespecting me. How about that? "
Lu Li didn't know why Emperor Candle Heaven, Phoenix Empress and Sunlight Emperor were doing this, but they were showing respect in front of so many Emperor Realm warriors.
If Lu Li continued to argue, he would be insensible. Cupping his fists, Lu Li said, "Emperor, you are right. I have no objection!"
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Emperor Candle Heaven laughed. He glanced over and said, "You really are a young talent. You are sensible and righteous. More importantly, you have reached the Emperor Realm at such a young age. The southern theater of operations will have another strong warrior.
Lu Li, as the commander of the southern theater of operations, I will appoint you as the commander of the ninth legion. I hope you can lead the army well, defeat the enemies, and eliminate more Abyss Realm warriors. You will make great contributions to the human race. "
"The ninth legion?"
Lu Li's pupils contracted. He finally understood why Emperor Candle Heaven, Phoenix Empress and Sunlight Emperor were being so humble today.
They were sending Lu Li to the battlefield and killing him with the help of the powerful warriors from the Abyss Realm …
