That terrifying pressure was like a flash in the pan, disappearing in an instant.
Even so, countless cultivators were still gathered on the streets of the Li Fire King.
Almost everyone was discussing the source of that terrifying aura just now.
"That…seems to be the Immortal Martial realm! Moreover, it came from the Thearch Palace. Could it be that the Thearch hadn't left?”
"I don't think so. I was lucky enough to meet the Great Emperor before, and the feeling this aura gives me is completely different from the Great Emperor's!”
"In my opinion, this is a good sign! On the day our new emperor ascended the throne, another Celestial Martial Realm expert appeared! Hahaha, the flames are about to rise!"
……
At this moment, the Dynasty Emperor Hall was deathly silent.
All the officials in the court looked at Lin Xiao…the Baxia in front of him.
Their eyes were filled with strangeness.
There was shock, disbelief, and a hint of passion.
"Your Majesty, this is…"
Li Haoran swallowed hard. Because he was too excited, his voice was trembling.
Lin Xiao had expected the reaction of the officials.
"This is an ancient divine beast, Baxia. It's a gift from the heavens!”
Although these words were not credible, Lin Xiao was only giving everyone a barely justifiable reason.
He believed that everyone was smart and naturally would not get to the bottom of it.
"I see…"
Li Haoran's expression was obviously filled with disbelief, but just as Lin Xiao thought, he did not continue to ask.
No matter what, when the Li Fire Monarch traveled far away and offended the North Region Sacred Land, the Northern Region Sacred Land was still in a state of chaos.
To be able to have an Immortal Martial realm combat strength, it was simply a solution to the pressing matter. How could they still think about where Lin Xiao had obtained it?
"Good omen!"
An excited voice interrupted Li Haoran's thoughts.
His old face instantly darkened.
He didn't need to think to know who it was.
Qingfeng Li was extremely excited and said with a flushed face,""Your Majesty is indeed a person blessed by the heavens!”
"Even the heavens specially bestowed such a divine beast!”
"It's really the fortune of me, Li Huo, and the fortune of the people!”
"Your Majesty, please allow me to express my gratitude on behalf of the millions of lives in the dynasty!”
Qingfeng Li bowed to Xiao Lin as he spoke.
"Rise!"
" Yes!" Xiao Lin nodded with satisfaction." Minister of Revenue, Qingfeng Li!"”
"Your subject is here!"
Qingfeng Li quickly stepped forward.
"I plan to reward you with a hundred mu of ling fields, how about it?”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Qingfeng Li's face almost bloomed with laughter.
He was an honest official, and the annual salary of the imperial court was only enough for his own cultivation.
Now, with this hundred mu of ling fields, his daily life would be upgraded by quite a bit!
Haoran Li's face darkened when he saw Qingfeng Li getting rewarded but not himself.
Should he make some changes?
He thought to himself.
"What are you waiting for? Why aren't you returning to your position?"
Lin Xiao pointed at Wang Meng, who was in a daze, and a smile could not help but appear on his face.
He admired this great marshal very much.
He even hoped that there would be as many of them as possible.
"Understood!"
Wang Meng came back to his senses and hurriedly bowed to Lin Xiao before returning to his seat.
Seeing this, all the officials felt relieved.
It could be said that this was the best ending.
No one would pay the price for crippling the envoy.
There was also an Immortal Martial realm divine beast guarding the dynasty. Even if the Holy Land punished them, they would have the capital to resist.
Thinking of this, everyone could not help but raise their heads and look at the same place.
They knew very well that all of this…originated from the dignified youth sitting on the dragon throne.
For a moment, all the doubts in everyone's hearts disappeared!
Towards Lin Xiao, all they had left was respect!
At this moment, all the civil and military officials of the Li Fire Empire were loyal!
"Does anyone else have anything to report? Continue!"
Lin Xiao looked at the sky outside the Thearch Palace. It was already afternoon and he could not help but smile."Anyway, it's already afternoon. There's no need to waste time!”
"Hahaha…"
The relaxed officials all laughed.
The entire court was harmonious.
"Your Majesty, three days ago, the subordinates of the Linzhou King's Mansion discovered traces of demons in the Linzhou area!”
The one who spoke was the Minister of Personnel Affairs, Chen Han.
"Demons?"
"As far as I know, shouldn't this thing be in the outer realm?" Lin Xiao frowned.”
"Your Majesty, I'm not too sure about this either. However, I can determine that there is someone behind the demon that is specially raising it!”
"Otherwise, with the rationality of the demons, why would they stop immediately after slaughtering a village?”
At this point, Chen Han's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed across them."I suspect that the person behind this fiendish demon is not a person, but…a faction!”
As soon as he said this, the faces of all the officials in the court changed.
Which faction dared to raise demons and devils?
One had to know that creatures like demons had low intelligence and were cruel by nature. They loved fresh flesh and blood the most!
Especially the flesh and blood of human cultivators!
To them, not only could this satisfy their appetite, but they could also use the spiritual energy of the cultivator's body to increase their strength!
Raising fiendish demons…was simply making the entire human race their enemy!
"I understand. I will leave this matter to the Shengtian Guards. You don't have to worry about it.”
Lin Xiao nodded slightly and gave a positive reply.
The Shengtian Guard was a force that belonged solely to the Li Fire Dynasty's Sovereign Lord. It had always maintained a number of 300 people.
The minimum requirement to join the Shengtian Guard was to have a clean family background, a good character, and a cultivation base of at least the Nascent Soul Realm!
As for their duties, they were equivalent to the Brocade Guards of the Ming Dynasty in Lin Xiao's previous life.
Chen Han was relieved when he heard Shengtian Guard.
Obviously, he had full confidence in this power.
Soon after, the officials reported.
Lin Xiao dealt with it unhurriedly.
About an hour passed.
The officials finally finished their report.
Seeing that no one spoke, Xiao Lin finally let out a sigh of relief. He looked at Qingfeng Li and said,""Minister Li, how many spirit stones are there in the national treasury?”
Qingfeng Li was stunned at first, then he quickly answered,""Your Majesty, there are currently 57,238,006 spirit stones in the national treasury!”
"Why are there so few?"
Hearing the other party's report, Lin Xiao was dumbfounded.
Fifty million Spiritual Stones was an astronomical figure for any force.
But one had to know that this was the national treasury of the dignified Li Fire Empire!
Logically speaking, it wouldn't be too much to save up one billion or eight hundred million spirit stones!
But why was it so little?
