Murong Batian and Yu Wende had very gloomy expressions on their faces, looking extrely unpleasant.
Letian was right, seeing the Holy Monarch Token was as if seeing the Holy Monarch himself; even for king-level experts like them, they had no choice but to bow their heads.
"Paying respects to the Holy Monarch."
Murong Batian, Yu Wende, along with Prince Consort Murong Yunxuan and the vice dean of the Holy Spirit Academy, Old Mo, all bowed to the Holy Monarch Token held by Letian.
"Rise. As for today's matter, I will not hold it against you. However, if you dare to be disrespectful again, things won't be so easy."
Letian put away the Holy Monarch Token and spoke indifferently.
Although Murong Batian and the others did not kneel, Letian didn't mind, because he knew it was already remarkable to make the loftily superior king-level experts bow in front of him; making them kneel was simply impossible.
"How did you co to possess the Holy Monarch Token?"
Murong Batian asked with a dark face. Bowing his head before soone of the True Martial Realm was a huge humiliation for him. If Letian didn't have the Holy Monarch Token, Murong Batian would have long slapped him to death.
"You may ask His Majesty about this. Old Mo, Prince Consort, I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now."
Letian glanced at Murong Batian nonchalantly and bowed to Old Mo and the Prince Consort.
The Prince Consort had spoken up for him just now, and he should show the proper respect in return.
"Hmm, you may go."
Old Mo nodded with a faint smile, feeling quite relieved. If not for Letian having the Holy Monarch Token, today's situation could have been quite troubleso.
"If you have the ti, you are welco to visit the Prince Consort's residence. That boy Zhan misses the fine wine you carry."
Prince Consort Murong Yunxuan said with a smile.
"Thank you for your generous invitation, Prince Consort. Should ti permit, I will surely pay a visit. Farewell."
Letian bowed and upon finishing, he leapt up and transford into a sword light, heading straight for the Holy Spirit Academy.
After Letian left, Prince Consort Murong Yunxuan and Old Mo also departed.
"Lord of the Southern Garrison, are we just going to let that kid leave so easily?"
Yu Wende frowned as he spoke.
"He has the Holy Monarch Token in hand; if we don't let him go, what else can we do?"
Murong Batian said coldly.
"The Holy Monarch Token is a symbol of power for our Gray Wolf Kingdom. How could His Majesty entrust such an important item to an insignificant ant of the True Martial Realm? It's incomprehensible."
Yu Wende said with a gloomy face.
"The Monarch must have given him the Holy Monarch Token just for self-protection. Other than that, he absolutely can't mobilize a single soldier with it."
Murong Batian shook his head.
Although the Holy Monarch Token was important, it didn't an anyone could command the Gray Wolf Kingdom with it. To exercise its powers, one still needed the Monarch's decree.
"Today, this kid got lucky. The Holy Monarch Token may save him for the mont, but it can't protect him forever. There will be plenty of ti in the future; we'll see."
Looking at the departing figure of Letian, Yu Wende spoke with a sinister gleam in his eyes.
...
After leaving the Royal Palace, Letian went straight to Kuxiu Mountain at the Holy Spirit Academy, finding a cave dwelling on the ninety-second level.
Then, he continued to grasp the essence of the natural laws while entering the Alchemy Room, taking out the Demon Core of the Ice River Xuan Turtle, the Hundred Herbs Furnace, and other items, and began refining the Life Extension Pill again.
Ti silently passed by, and in the blink of an eye, three days had gone by.
During this ti, the matter of the candidates for Prince Consort offering congratulatory gifts for the Monarch's grand birthday had already spread throughout the entire Royal Capital.
Among them, the na Zhao Zilong was ntioned the most, because this least promising lad finally won the victory of that assessnt.
Moreover, because of this, the involvent of Zhao Letian in the Sky-reaching Peak and Slaughter Illusion Realm assessnts was also dug up once again. People were amazed to discover that this boy with no background from the countryside swept through all the geniuses in his path, winning the championship of these three assessnts in succession, truly a miracle.
As a result, Zhao Letian's fa in the Royal Capital suddenly surpassed all the geniuses, even overshadowing the ten great sons, and he beca a legendary figure talked about eagerly by everyone.
In addition to this, there was another matter that caused quite a stir in the city.
That was the first direct confrontation between Yanmoluo, the genius of the Demon Buddha Sect, and Baru, who was known to be the strongest under the Sect Martial Realm. Visit My Virtual Library Empire (*) for more.
The battle was incredibly fierce, witnessed by the top talents in the city.
In the end, Yanmoluo demonstrated a strength that exceeded everyone's expectations, but Baru's strength was unfathomable and terrifying. Without resorting to any tricks, he completely overpowered Yanmoluo by sheer strength, making Yanmoluo lose convincingly.
After witnessing this battle, people like ng Yi felt a strong sense of crisis.
They found that the gap between them and Baru was even wider than they had expected. They realized they had no chance of winning even against Yanmoluo.
Therefore, after this battle, everyone began to use their ti wisely to improve their own strength, with so entering seclusion and others venturing out for training, all in preparation for the Imperial Secret Realm one year later.
At the sa ti, Zhao Letian had been in seclusion in Kuxiu Mountain, turning a deaf ear to the outside world.
Over these three days, he devoted himself to the alchemy of Life Extension Pills.
With the experience from the last ti, his success rate had increased significantly, and he wasted much less raw materials.
After using up one Ice River Xuan Turtle's Demon Core, he successfully refined thirty Life Extension Pills.
After preparing the elixirs, Zhao Letian transford into a streak of sword light and left Kuxiu Mountain.
In the depths of Holy Spirit Academy, within a secluded courtyard, Zhao Letian stood opposite an old man nad Mo.
"Little guy, you said you had urgent business with , what exactly is the matter?"
Old Mo asked with a smile.
With his status, he would not normally et a low-ranking junior from the True Martial Realm. The reason he agreed to et with Zhao Letian today was firstly because Zhao Letian was a person who defied fate, and the head of the Academy valued him highly, having instructed Old Mo to take special care of Zhao Letian; secondly, because Zhao Letian claid to have an urgent matter that required seeing him in person.
"Elder, here are three Life Extension Pills, as a token of my gratitude. Please accept them."
Zhao Letian got straight to the point, taking out a small white porcelain bottle and handing it to Old Mo.
"Life Extension Pills? Didn't you say you had none left?"
Old Mo's eyes showed surprise, and he asked incredulously.
"Elder, please do not inquire about other matters. It is not convenient for to speak of them."
Zhao Letian shook his head and smiled helplessly.
"Alright, every Martial Artist has their own opportunities and secrets. Since you don't wish to say more, I won't press you. I'll accept these three elixirs, and consider myself owing you a favor. If there's anything you need, just ask."
Old Mo was not a nitpicking person; he nodded, smiling and accepted the elixirs.
"Elder exaggerates. These three elixirs are just to express my gratitude for your care that day. I have another matter to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
Zhao Letian said nonchalantly, bowing to Old Mo.
"Hmm, off you go then. This is my Token; take it with you. If there's ever an issue, you can find at any ti."
Old Mo nodded, and casually tossed a Jade Token to Zhao Letian.
"Thank you, Elder."
Zhao Letian pocketed the Token and gave a respectful bow.
Then, he transford into a streak of sword light, heading out from the Holy Spirit Academy.
