C469 Who Would be so Bold
When he was talking to them, Chu Yan could clearly feel Wusilanma's impatience.
However, the two youths didn't seem to care about her attitude at all. They questioned her for a while before letting her go.
Chu Yan's gaze fell on the two youths.
"These are the disciples of the Wanhai Sect. Two of them are at the small success stage of 1st level of Pulse Condensation Stage."
Chu Yan carefully thought back to the cultivators he had found in the past few days walking around the capital.
Indeed, some of them were wearing these blue long gowns.
Now it seems that this is Wanhai Sect's service.
"Seems like there are quite a few people here. Fortunately, I made preparations beforehand." Chu Yan muttered to himself for a moment, then jumped down from the roof.
"Everything will be up to six days later."
...
January 28th, the day that everyone's attention was focused on, had finally arrived.
From the moment the sun rose above the horizon, the joyous atmosphere had been thoroughly ignited in the capital city of Southern Yuan Kingdom.
This time's celebration was even more grand than the one held by Chu Qiangdong when he officially ascended the throne.
Early in the morning, taking advantage of the auspicious hour, Chu Qiangdong rode on the imperial carriage with a total of a thousand people leading the way. They departed from the Imperial City and took a detour around the capital's inner city.
Wherever they went, firecrackers must ring out simultaneously, and a hundred flowers scattered down, creating an atmosphere of prosperity and peace.
By the time the imperial carriage returned to the Imperial City, it was already noon.
The following ceremony was for Chu Qiangdong to ascend the Dragon Throne at the Imperial City Square and receive the worship of the Southern Yuan Kingdom's officials and the envoys of other countries.
The entire imperial city, under the lead of the Eunuch Wu Wu Xiaoming, had long been renovated, showing the aura of a member of the imperial family.
Right now, what Chu Qiangdong wanted to do was to step onto the ninth floor, sit on the dragon throne, and once again experience the feeling of a ruler descending down to the world, under the gazes of tens of thousands of people present.
Looking at the nine jade steps in front of him, Chu Qiangdong felt a hint of excitement.
To a duke, this was an unprecedented feeling.
"This day, I only dared to imagine it in my dreams!" Taking a deep breath, Chu Qiangdong could not help but exclaim.
Now, with Chu Xing's power, although he was unable to become a cultivator, he had obtained the pills bestowed to him by the Wanhai Sect.
This pill could extend his lifespan and allow him to cut feathers and cleanse marrow.
The current Chu Qiangdong, even though he was already over fifty years old, he knew very well that after consuming the medicinal pellets bestowed to him by the Wanhai Sect, his current condition was even stronger than when he was twenty years old!
Recently, he also felt that the bottleneck of his cultivation level was showing signs of loosening.
Thus, stepping into the fifth level of the Genuine Force Stage was no longer a dream!
All of these were benefits gained after Chu Xing was eliminated!
When he thought about Chu Yan, Chu Qiangdong couldn't help but have a wave of resentment arise within his heart.
That year, Chu Yan was only fifteen years old, but he had already accomplished an unprecedented feat, to the point where the cries for Chu Qiangdong to abdicate and for him to ascend the throne had already arisen among the people and the imperial court.
How could Chu Qiangdong agree to such a request!
But just as he was stuck riding the tiger, the appearance of the Wanhai Sect and Chu Xing's Demonic Python physique allowed him to see another possibility.
Then, under his meticulous planning, that possibility became a reality!
"Fortunately, since the day that bastard was born, I have been on guard against him. All of the palace maids and guards around him were personally selected by me, so he can only see a little bit of this world and not all of them. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to get rid of him.
Hmph, luckily I made my move early. Otherwise, if he were to really ascend to the throne, he would have found out that this world is completely different from what I told him before.
But now, the final winner is me! "
Chu Qiangdong raised his head and looked at the dragon throne that was glowing with a gold light as his eyes burned with passion.
"I can sit on this Dragon Throne for another thirty years! Sixty years! Ninety years! "
Chu Qiangdong took a step and stepped onto the first flight of stairs.
The guards, officials, envoys, and citizens had been waiting for this moment for a long time. They all kneeled on the ground and shouted, "Long live!"
An enormous sound pierced through the nine heavens.
The rumbling sound travelled into Chu Qiangdong's ears, and the feeling of being worshipped by tens of thousands of people, made his blood boil, and his face burn.
He had only experienced this feeling when he ascended the throne 30 years ago.
Stepping onto the second flight of stairs, firecrackers roared in unison, causing the entire Royal Capital to be in an uproar.
Third level –
The fourth level –
Fifth level –
With every step he took, Chu Qiangdong could feel the vibrations of the sound waves in his surroundings and the trembling of the jade steps beneath his feet.
This feeling was simply too wonderful. It was enough to make one fall in love with him.
It was a pity that that woman from back then could no longer be seen. That damned bastard could no longer be seen!
As he stepped onto the ninth floor, Chu Qiangdong felt the entire city boiling up, and suddenly felt a sense of regret.
In his heart, he even couldn't help but have a thought: "If he didn't agree to Prefecture of Persia's request at that time, then when we imprison that bastard in a corner of the Imperial City today, it wouldn't be a bad idea to let him see."
Thinking about it, Chu Qiangdong smiled, thinking that he had thought too well of himself.
Two years ago, that bastard was already killed at the border. Even his corpse and bones couldn't be put together.
But... it was still a pity!
Thinking about that, Chu Qiangdong turned around, facing the black mass of kneeling subjects, waving his hand, his face full of smiles, and slowly sat down on the dragon throne.
However, at this moment, his butt stopped just half a foot away from the dragon throne.
The expression on his face went from a smile to a frozen one, to confusion to doubt.
At this moment, he noticed that at the entrance of the Imperial City in the distance, a figure was slowly walking in.
Logically speaking, no one should have dared to move even a finger at a time like this, not to mention walking around.
And right now, only he, Chu Qiangdong, could pass through the main gate of the Imperial City.
Who was that man? How dare he ruin his thirty years of celebration!
The confusion in his eyes was instantly replaced by anger.
His body that had been sitting down slowly stood up again.
Chu Qiangdong's actions, were seen by everyone present.
Everyone's eyes were filled with confusion as they looked towards the direction that Chu Qiangdong was looking.
Instantly, the tens of thousands of people present were all dumbstruck.
They saw a person wearing a bamboo hat pass through the Imperial City's main gate at this moment. Under the gazes of everyone present, he was composed as he walked along the main road towards the center of the square.
Every step he took seemed to step into the hearts of everyone present. It caused their hearts to palpitate involuntarily. It was as if they were walking at the same pace as him.
