Chapter 4262: The Emperor Does Not Speak in Jest

    

as no other expression on her face, leaving everyone utterly clueless.But Ke Jiangyun didn't care about these things. His mouth kept spewing out one medicinal name after another: "Jin Di Luo, Wang Bu...As Jiang Yun's foot just stepped onto the second floor of Ruyi Pavilion, before he could even get a clear look at the situation, a cold voice rang out in his ear: "The Emperor has arrived!"

The words spoken by this voice sent a shiver down Jiang Yun's spine.

Although I didn't feel anything myself, it was clear that the other party wasn't joking about this.

That is to say, if a great emperor were to truly arrive.

Today, in this Tianlin City, the only emperor who can follow him to this Ruyi Pavilion is Emperor Xuan.

And this also conforms to one's previous speculation.

Since I stepped into Tianlin City, Emperor Xuan's divine sense should have been on me.

Even, Xundi was probably aware that this Ruyi Xuan belonged to Mo Qinghong.

Besides telling him about my journey to the Great Demon Heaven from the Sea Tribe and the nearly four months I spent there, I believe His Majesty Emperor Xuan also knows. So, as I entered this Ruyi Pavilion now, he immediately followed suit and hurried over.

These thoughts flashed through Jiang Yun's mind in an instant, but his steps never faltered. He strode towards the other companion waiting for him, opening his mouth soundlessly: "I want to buy a sword!"

"My good sir, your smile is as bright as the sun! You've come to the right place. At this Ruyi Pavilion, our swords are what we're most famous for."

"I don't know what kind of sword Young Master wishes to buy. Just state your requirements, and we should be able to fulfill them."

Jiang Yun smiled faintly. "Your tone isn't small, then if I said, I want to buy an emperor sword!"

The companion's smile froze instantly, slowly transforming into a wry grin. "Young Master, are you teasing me"

"If we could sell the Emperor's Sword, why would our shopkeeper even need to run away from this Ruyi Pavilion"

Jiang Yun smiled and shook his head. "Alright, bring out your best swords for me to see,"

"Don't worry, as long as the sword is good enough, I can afford any price!"

Next, Gingercloud chose swords at the second floor of Ruyi Pavilion just like a customer buying a sword.

Finally, he even really bought a sword that could be considered a domain weapon and left with an air of confidence.

Just as he was about to step out of Ruixiang Pavilion, the voice that had previously reminded him of the approaching emperor's arrival rang in his ear again: "Lin Ruiguang!"

Ginger knew in her heart that this name belonged to a guard from either Heaven Within or Heaven Outside, and it was also the eyes and ears placed there by Mo Qinghong.

But he pretended not to hear, strode out of Ruyi Pavilion.

Next, he kept walking without stopping and went straight north toward the city gate.

Behind him, atop the roof of Ruyi Pavilion, Emperor Xuan slowly emerged.

Gazing at Jian Yun's gradually disappearing figure, Emperor Xuan frowned slightly and said, "Could it be that I was wrong"

“Tomorrow there will be a big competition among the military, and he's coming to buy a suitable weapon. It's quite reasonable.”

Shaking his head, Xuan Di didn't dwell on it any further. With a single step, his figure vanished without a trace.

And just after Emperor Xuan disappeared, a middle-aged man walked out from the second floor of Ruyi Pavilion. He looked up at the top, his eyes flashing with cold light and said: "Whenever this demonic cloud comes, Emperor Xuan appears, and whenever the demonic cloud leaves, Emperor Xuan departs."

As the Emperor of Xuan, to care so much about a mere human cultivator, there is only one possibility: this person has an unknown relationship with Emperor Xuan.

"This time, the emperor has probably made a mistake. Fortunately, I found it. I must inform the emperor of this, just in case."

Jiangyun didn't know that his sudden whim to go to Ruyi Pavilion, though he said nothing and did nothing, had already sown seeds of suspicion between the two emperors.

Half an hour later, Jiang Yun had arrived at the gate of that Song family's residence.

Seeing the gate that was only slightly ajar and unguarded, Jiang Yun was just about to reach out and knock when Emperor Xuan's voice rang in his ear: "Just come in!"

Jiang Yun's eyebrows shot up, and a flicker of surprise crossed his face, but he quickly regained his composure. He pushed open the slightly ajar door and strode into the Song residence.

No one came to greet him, but the aura emanating from the Emperor Xuan guided him all the way to a secluded hermitage deep within the estate. There he saw the Emperor Xuan sitting inside, eyes closed.

With the appearance of Jiang Yun, Xuan Di also slowly opened his eyes, looking at Jiang Yun, a smile that was not a smile appeared on his face: "This time, for you, I have paid no small price!"

"Just that space transmission talisman, a single one could be worth the cultivation needs of an ordinary small clan for a whole year."

"You said, shouldn't I get some reward too"

Jiang Yun was not polite either. He walked straight to the front of Emperor Xuan and sat down, saying: "When I become the Heavenly Marshal one day, I will definitely repay Emperor Xuan for what he has spent on me today."

Jiang Yun's words made Xuendi smile slightly. "Is there hope this time"

"This time, it's impossible!" Jiang Yun shook his head. "The position of Heavenly General requires at least the strength of a quasi-emperor. I am still too far from becoming a quasi-emperor."

Unless the Emperor can pay some more price, allowing my cultivation to quickly improve before tomorrow.

"Nor does it need to be too high, as long as I reach the Imperial level, I have confidence that I can fight against a quasi-emperor!"

"Otherwise, I'm afraid we'll have to wait for quite some time, at least a few hundred years, maybe even a thousand!"

"Haha!" Emperor Xuan laughed suddenly. "You are truly not greedy at all!"

Before tomorrow, making you a Royal-rank powerhouse isn't impossible.

"Fine, I'll give you all my cultivation. Don't just talk about being emperor-level, with this, you can directly become an Emperor without any problems."

"But, do you want to"

Jiang Yun shrugged indifferently and said, "If the Emperor is really willing to give up, then why wouldn't I"

At this moment, Ginger Cloud is truly unafraid of Emperor Xuan.

He was very clear that he was incredibly important to Xundi.

Not only does it possess the imperial aura of its own emperor, but I am also the most suitable candidate to become the Heavenly Marshal.

Therefore, even if his attitude were more arrogant, the emperor wouldn't mind him.

As expected, when faced with Jiang Yun's unrestrained words, Emperor Xuan not only wasn't annoyed, but also nodded with interest and said: "Alright, if I ever get tired of my cultivation one day, I will naturally find you and give you all my power."

Ginger Yun immediately bowed to Emperor Xuan and said, "Your Majesty speaks the truth. Then I will wait for that day to come."

"Hahaha!" The Emperor Xuen couldn't help but burst into laughter again. But halfway through, he suddenly stopped and said, "Mo Qinghong, are you in the Great Demon Heaven"

Faced with the Emperor Xuan's sudden change of topic, Jiang Yun nodded calmly and said, "Yes!"

"Mo Qinghong, and Mo Tong, were both in the ninth-level palace of Da Motian when I left."

Jiang Yun understood that, in the process of his incursion into the Great Demon Heaven, Xundi must have already known.

Therefore, instead of trying to conceal oneself, it's better to be honest.

As expected, Emperor Xuan’s face broke into a smile again. “You destroyed eight of their palaces, and they just let you go so easily”

Ginger Cloud also smiled and said, "When I left, the Demon Clan had already rebuilt those eight palaces."

"Mo Qinghong is at least the Demon Emperor, he wouldn't kill me for something like this!"

"Emperor Xuan looked deeply at Jiang Yun and said, "You just stay here temporarily, don't run around, I will take you into the Heavenly Realm soon!"

After uttering those words, Emperor Xuan stood up and vanished without a trace.

He still didn't ask, after all, why Ginger Cloud went to the Demon Heaven.

However, it's also good to get in early so I can find out what has happened inside and outside of the world over these past seven or eight years.

If possible, I would also like to go to Districts 93 and 99 and see what's going on with those two Emperor-level 荒族 (hángzú) leaders.

Even, he had to go find Mo Ze and ask him, why did he hire someone to kill him back then!

After about an hour, Emperor Xuan appeared once again before Jiang Yun.

And this time, he was accompanied by a white-haired old man.

The elder reached out and threw a jade slip to Jiangyun, saying, "Transform into the appearance of someone inside, and we shall go to Tianwai Tian now!"k down on the demon clan, but I really like them!'"A cold light flashed in Ginger Cloud's eyes. The Zang Dao Sword and Scattered Spirit Whip in his hand vanished, replaced by the Soul Locking Incense...
