The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 264
Ling Han raised his clasped hand politely towards the Rain Emperor and said, "This young Junior hereby pays respect to His Imperial Majesty!"
As he referred to himself as a junior, the respect he paid naturally was from a martial artist to his senior, so there was no blade to kneel or bow. If he were to greet the Rain Emperor as a subject, then he would have to kneel down. Those are two very different points of view.
The Rain Emperor did not rebuke him. Instead, he smiled, and said, "Young man, you are so proud!"
Near his feet, Xu Ke Xin was awoken by the noise. When he opened his eyes and looked at Ling Han, he could not help but look surprised. He had obviously met this young man before and had even thought of killing him before, although in the end he had not moved.
He never thought that this person was truly qualified to meet the Rain Emperor. This is very surprising.
"His Majesty the Emperor is the most mighty here. Just one punch was able to completely defeat the officers of the Moon Winter Sect, making this junior's blood boil with excitement," Ling Han praised.
"Haha!" The Rain Emperor laughed loudly, shook his head and said, "Do you think that just because you speak a little flattery, I will forget about the trouble you have caused?"
Xu Ke Xin could not help but be surprised. He had been by the Rain Emperor's side for several years, but had almost never seen the Rain Emperor laugh so loudly before. He even used a seductive tone to talk to a young man. It's practically unbelievable for him.
Ling Han said seriously, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty the Emperor!"
The Rain Emperor humped and said, "No matter how angry I am, I won't dare to do anything to a Black Class high-level alchemist!"
Xu Ke Xin could not help but stare with wide eyes. A Black Grade high-level alchemist? This young man in front of him? How could this happen! But the Rain Emperor would not utter false words, so no matter how difficult it was for him, it was definitely the truth.
Ling Han laughed and said, "I haven't thanked His Majesty the Emperor for helping me out of such a difficult situation. I will definitely return the favor to you in the future!" Since the Rain Emperor had shown his status as a high tier Black Class alchemist, then he would talk to the Rain Emperor as an alchemist. In terms of status, he was only slightly below the latter.
The Rain Emperor tapped lightly on the armrest of his throne and said, "Roll me, my third child, and my seventh son, you have met all of them before. Who do you think would be more appropriate to inherit the throne?"
Should he be asked this kind of question? Ling Han thought for a moment, then replied, "You should have made a decision deep in your heart, Your Majesty the Emperor. I wouldn't dare tell any lies."
"You are a Black Class high-level alchemist. Fu Yuan Sheng and Wu Song Lin took your opinions into consideration. If you have a different opinion than me and influence the alchemists not to sell any more medicinal pills to Rain Country citizens in the future, doesn't that mean destruction for the Rain Empire? " The Rain Emperor said calmly.
Ling Han could not help but be covered in cold sweat. This crime was rather great, and coupled with the fact that the ruler tended to be temperamental, if he really thought that Ling Han would be a problem that would threaten his imperial authority, then no matter who he was, it was not, he'll just get rid of him!
He had pushed his vigilance to the highest level he could pass through. If there was any movement from the Rain Emperor, he would directly enter the Black Tower. The most one would do was to let the Rain Emperor discover that he had a secret technique that allowed him to teleport instantly or think he had a secret hiding place. Even if he was forced to reveal some of his secrets, it was still better than losing his life.
"Put your little heart safely into your chest. If I really wanted to kill you, you wouldn't have survived the entire journey here," the Rain Emperor said calmly.
Ling Han laughed. Even though he looked relieved on the surface, he did not in the slightest relax internally. He is not a person who easily trusts anyone.
"Ling Han, how should I treat you?" the Emperor of Rain. "An alchemist who can concoct the Foundation Building Pill, the foundation of the Rain Country can be greatly disturbed because of you!"
Pu's!
Xu Ke Xin finally could not help herself from coughing. The Foundation Builder Pill that had created so much commotion in the Imperial City was actually made by Ling Han? Unimaginable, completely unimaginable, he was still very young, so how could he really concoct the Foundation Formation Pill?
Ling Han thought for a moment, then said, "In the future, if I make another Foundation pill, I can prioritize supplying half to the Imperial Family first."
"Good!" The Rain Emperor finally smiled, and the tense atmosphere instantly dispersed.
Accompanying the Emperor was really like accompanying a tiger. An Emperor is always temperamental and will kill anyone with a hat, so even if you want to calm down, it is not easy to do.
Ling Han could not help but criticize silently. If he still had the cultivation he had in his last life, he would definitely give the Rain Emperor thrashing about for actually daring to scare him. However, at this moment, he could only grimace, and said, "I almost died of fright by His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Haha, you will definitely become an Earth-class alchemist in the future. At that time, even I should welcome you wholeheartedly. Taking advantage of this time when your wings are not yet full, I naturally have to give you a little beating and bully you a little, because I won't have a chance to do so in the future, "said Rain Emperor with a smile.
Ling Han smiled as well. Actually, Rain Emperor is also a man with a sense of humor, although it will depend on whether he wants you to feel that he is an attractive and funny man.
"My roll and my third son are still a bit lacking in terms of disposition. They have ambition, but don't have the right way to it!" The Rain Emperor said, giving a little assessment to his son. "My seventh was a bit too careful. He is an adequate defender, but will not progress enough."
He paused, then said, "You must support my seven. With the support of an Earth-class alchemist in the future, I can calm down and abdicate. I have decided, after my sixtieth birthday, I will ascend the throne to my seventh, and from then on, concentrate my focus on martial arts. "
Xu Ke Xin was very surprised, her face was the paleest. He couldn't help but shout, "Your Majesty—"
The Rain Emperor pressed down with one hand, stopping him from speaking further, then said, "You should leave right now!"
Ling Han paid no heed to the confusing words between the two of them, and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty the Emperor."
"Why did you congratulate me?" The Rain Emperor asked, smiling.
"When you have left the nation's things, you will be able to concentrate on breaking through to the Flower Blossoming Tier, and thus will be able to throw away your mortal chains and ascend to the gods!" Ling Han said with a smile.
The Rain Emperor could not help but have his eyes lit up. Instantly, his aura gushed out like the waves of the sea, and he said, "You can really tell my cultivation level?"
Ling Han smiled slightly, and said neutrally, "I'm an alchemist, so my heavenly sense should be much stronger than ordinary people."
The Rain Emperor nodded. This young man is amazing. Otherwise, he couldn't have possibly concocted an alchemy pill close to Earth Grade when he was only at the Gushing Spring Tier. He once again tapped his finger on the armrest and said, "Half a month later, I'll have a party for my birthday. At that time, there will also be a martial arts competition held to celebrate my birthday."
Ling Han did not know what these words meant, so he simply nodded and did not reply.
"For the person who got first place in the martial arts competition, the prize would be a treasure in the inner room of the National Treasury," the Rain Emperor said calmly.
Ling Han was instantly transferred.
Eyes Truth!
The Rain Emperor was already half a step into the Flower Blossoming Tier, and coupled together with the strength of the nation, he was like a god in the Rain Country. Thus, his eyes and ears were practically everywhere in the country. Most likely, the few deals he had made with the Eldest One and the Third Imperial Prince did not escape the knowledge of this Rain Emperor.
Ling Han was tense. Then what about the Liu Sisters problem? Technically, he had protected the criminals who intended to kill an Imperial Consort. This is no different than committing treason.
En, he shouldn't have known.
After all, the Rain Emperor was human. Even if he had broken through to the Blooming Flower Level, he would only no longer be mortal, but he was still far from becoming a god. He could only focus limited attention on a few important people.
For example, his three sons who all had the ability to qualify for the throne contest competition. Their every move definitely did not escape his knowledge as he quietly compared and pondered which one was more suitable to inherit the throne.
Thus, the fact that Ling Han had discussed stealing the Eye of Truth with the Eldest and the Third Imperial Prince must not have escaped this knowledge of the Rain Emperor.
Now, the Rain Emperor had taken the Eye of Truth as a gift. The unspoken words here are, 'I am well aware of all your little gestures. As long as you are willing to listen to me, then I will naturally give you some benefits. '
No wonder he is the ruler of a nation. He is very skilled at manipulating.
