Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 172 - 136 Valley Master and the Little Emperor_4

The nine Great Grandmasters of the realm are not just titular figures.

The Valley Master of Stargazing Valley fell silent for a while, then said, ”Alright, I agree!”

For that one purpose, some scum weren’t worth considering.

”So it’s agreed then, now may I ask what your purpose is, Grandpa Valley Master?” The young emperor reverted to his adorable demeanor.

”My purpose is simple. It requires you, the emperor, to perform a ritual to Heaven, like this...”

The young emperor seemed to understand yet not understand.

Despite having become the emperor, it was entirely accidental, so he really knew nothing of the secrets.

The Valley Master of Stargazing was not surprised and said, ”Emperor, do you know this matter can only be uncovered by oneself and not conveyed to a third person, so are you still willing to cooperate with me?”

The young emperor suddenly laughed, ”Hahaha, I didn’t expect it to be like this, what a great irony! Such an interesting matter, of course, I want to be involved. I am just a child, with the right to be willful!”

”Once you personally get involved, there will truly be no chance of leaving, because this time, my chances of death are almost certain!”

”Didn’t I say? I won’t leave. Did you think I was joking? The last emperor of Dawei is me! My beloved brother can go eat shit!”

As a member of the royal family, it was the first time the young emperor used profanity, but he found it unexpectedly exhilarating.

”Since it’s decided, let’s be willful to the end. From this moment on, I am the State Preceptor of Dawei and the safeguard of the emperor’s capriciousness!” The Valley Master of Stargazing, over two hundred years old, wanted to indulge in some fun with an eight-year-old child.

...

The next morning, the major powers who received the message from the palace were stirred up, issued by the eight-year-old emperor.

Originally, no one paid any attention to it.

An order from an eight-year-old emperor, only a fool would listen.

Until the herald announced the most important sentence.

”I have happened upon the Valley Master of Stargazing Valley, and after a delightful conversation, have decided to appoint him as the State Preceptor of Dawei to avert the crisis! Tomorrow at early court, the State Preceptor will make his first appearance. I urge all my loyal subjects to attend!”

All the powers that received this decree were dazed.

How had the young emperor managed to connect with the Valley Master of Stargazing, and even appointed him as the State Preceptor, aiming to avert crisis.

Could it be that the traditionally reclusive Stargazing Valley was now getting involved in worldly affairs?

Or was it possible that the young emperor was merely boasting, just a child trying in various ways to catch the adult’s attention?

Regardless of the speculation, one thing was certain: attendance at tomorrow’s early court was necessary.

They needed to see the truth for themselves.

If it was false, they would send the young emperor on an early journey to the afterlife. If true, they would need to leave the Imperial City.

A Grandmaster Level martial artist was not something they could confront.

Meanwhile, far in Shuzhou, Yue and Xu simultaneously felt that something was amiss, experiencing a sense of unease and oppression, tinged with a bit of sadness.

”What’s wrong, Xu, no issues, right?”

Xu shook his head. He hadn’t calculated anything specific, but it must be the Valley Master!

Had his master also chosen his path?

In Qingshan Village, Yue also had this feeling and quickly guessed the origin of this sensation.

”Valley Master...”

It was a sign that someone close was about to pass away!

Wang Sheng witnessed this scene and quickly understood the situation.

”As long as one believes their death has meaning and nothing can prevent it, the best choice is to bless them!”

Yue nodded.

Faced with the Valley Master, it seemed he could only offer his blessing.

Still, what exactly was the Valley Master trying to do...
