Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 96: Chapter 93 Pure Yang Wuji Gong1

"King Huai wants to see ?" Gu Chen's expression changed upon hearing this, and he was imdiately taken aback.

This King Huai was no ordinary figure. Currently in Da Xia, aside from those aged royal relatives who had retired, there was only one prince like King Huai.

King Huai was the current Emperor of Sumr's own younger brother by the sa mother, undoubtedly the most powerful individual in the entirety of Da Xia, and perhaps even the whole world.

Because when the current Emperor of Sumr underwent seclusion twenty-three years ago, he had appointed a Crown Prince and entrusted the administration of the state to him. However, at that ti, the Crown Prince was too young, rely a few years old. Therefore, the Emperor appointed King Huai as the Regent to supervise the nation, assisting the Crown Prince in handling state affairs.

And now, after the Crown Prince had co of age, King Huai had already transferred power and stepped back. But even so, the Crown Prince would still occasionally summon King Huai to the palace to discuss state affairs together.

Even with major issues where the Crown Prince was indecisive, he would first consult King Huai before finalizing the way forward.

It could be said that the relationship between the Crown Prince and King Huai was exceptionally close. They were not father and son, yet their bond was stronger than that of a father and son. The Emperor's image had already beco blurry in the Crown Prince's mory after twenty-three years of seclusion, far less intimate than his decades-long daily interactions with King Huai.

During King Huai's governance of Da Xia, the nation had been well-ordered, and its national strength had greatly increased. People used to say that King Huai possessed better capability in governance than the current sage Emperor. Regrettably, when the old Emperor selected his successor to the throne, the realm was in turmoil, urgently needing a powerful martial Emperor to suppress the world.

Moreover, as the Emperor was the eldest son, he was chosen to inherit the throne.

In the eyes of so, it would have been better for King Huai to succeed to the throne. The current Emperor would be more suitable as a great general, the pillar of the state, to awe the world.

If that were the case, there would not have been the occurrence of the Emperor secluding himself for twenty-three years and neglecting state affairs.

Moreover, what made the people sigh was that King Huai's martial talent was not remarkable, and he suffered from a weak constitution and poor health from a young age. Otherwise, he would truly have been the uncontestable choice for the throne

"What does King Huai want with ?" Gu Chen was sowhat puzzled. A personage like King Huai, possessing imnse power, could view Gu Chen as less significant than an ant, light as a feather. Why would he suddenly summon him?

Chen Yu shook his head and said, "I'm not aware of the specifics. The news ca from Prince Huai's Mansion. Perhaps King Huai wishes to understand the matter of the Six Union God Sect re-erging in the martial world. After all, you have firsthand experience; you've interacted with them quite a bit recently. His Highness King Huai probably wants to inquire about so details from you."

Even soone as proud as Chen Yu held great respect for a figure like King Huai. In all of Da Xia, no one could speak ill of King Huai.

After a pause, Chen Yu chuckled and said, "This might not be a bad thing. It's well known that King Huai harbors concern for the world and is especially keen on nurturing talent. Because his own martial talent is average, he places great emphasis on those with exceptional martial prowess.

Over the years, whether they are civil officials or military commanders, in Tiandu or the border armies, King Huai has cultivated nurous talents for Da Xia. Even I was weak once, and I owe much to King Huai's benevolence for reaching my position today."

Gu Chen nodded. He had also heard of King Huai's reputation for valuing talent, nurturing them regardless of the cost.

Of course, should one dare to commit acts detrintal to Da Xia after rising in power, King Huai would decidedly not let them off.

Therefore, whether among the common folk, within the court, or within institutions like the Jing Tian Departnt and the Mingjing Departnt, King Huai's reputation was exceedingly positive.

As Chen Yu ntioned, King Huai's summoning of Gu Chen was likely to inquire about the Six Union God Sect, and it was very possible he intended to ntor Gu Chen as well.

"King Huai is no ordinary person. When you et with him, you must be careful and tactful, taking great care not to say anything amiss." Chen Yu seriously advised.

"Do not worry, my lord. I understand," Gu Chen said solemnly, clasping his fists.

After all, King Huai was recognized as the most prominent individual in the contemporary Da Xia. Even if his temperant was amiable and unconcerned with strict formalities, soone like Gu Chen still needed to be mindful of the necessary etiquette.

Chen Yu nodded. He knew Gu Chen to be a man of asure, and through their interactions, Gu Chen had proved to be reliable. Chen Yu also hoped King Huai would take a liking to Gu Chen and cultivate him substantially.

Regardless, Gu Chen was his man, and his temperant and talents were in line with Chen Yu's own. Chen Yu did not want Gu Chen's potential to be cut short. If Gu Chen matured, Da Xia might gain another figure capable of being a great commander.

The Jing Tian Departnt oversaw the world, always vigilant against external threats. Now, with the rise of the demonic cults and the heightened danger of missions, Chen Yu did not wish for a talent like Gu Chen to perish prematurely.

If King Huai provided guidance, Gu Chen's future path would certainly be much smoother.

Finally, the mont Gu Chen had been eagerly awaiting arrived.

"Before you set off on your mission, I had said that if you could defeat Yu Qiushi and complete this task, aside from the due rewards, privately, I would give you an additional reward," Chen Yu said.
