The Emperor is Above

Chapter 31: First Hearing of the Human Emperor
(Please collect and recommend. I have been writing quietly for half a month. I will make my first recommendation tomorrow. This is the first time I ask for votes from you. Please come and support me!)
People who are open-minded and honest can be good friends and close acquaintances.

Qing Yi doesn't know much about physiognomy, but he knows that appearance reflects the heart, so he can tell which people he can make friends with.

Since the visitor was Niu Niu's eldest cousin, and he came to take Niu Niu home according to Old Man Shi's instructions, Qing Yi naturally gave him a warm welcome.

Qing Yi's sincere treatment, Tun Shigu's familiarity and Niu Niu's cute words quickly swept away the awkwardness of their first meeting.

"My name is Shi Dazhu. Since Niuniu calls you brother, you can just call me Brother Dazhu!"

The giant carefully took down his huge sword and put it aside, then carefully sat down. His burly body weighed more than 200 pounds, and he was afraid that the chair would break if he sat on it. He had a simple and honest expression on his face, but the next moment he said something that made Qing Yi stand up suddenly.
"Brother Qingyi, your family is really interesting. The little fox, the civet cat, and the big rooster you raise are all very interesting. No wonder Grandpa is willing to let Niuniu play in your house."

"Oh? Brother Dazhu, what's so special about these little things in my family?" Qing Yi was surprised. He wanted to confirm whether many people could see that his own dragon claw locust tree spirit was real.

“I heard from my grandfather that all creatures in this world have spirits, but humans are the most intelligent creatures and are born with intelligence. For other creatures such as feathers, beasts, scales, insects, wood, and stone, it is extremely difficult to awaken their intelligence.

But these little guys in your family are different, Brother Qingyi. They may not seem to have much power, but their intelligence is as high as that of a seven or eight-year-old child."

Shi Dazhu spoke with an extremely serious expression, "Usually, spirits and beasts will first absorb the essence of the sun and moon, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth instinctively, and then their bodies will gradually become stronger before they occasionally open their spiritual intelligence. It is very rare for their spiritual intelligence to open first."

"Brother Dazhu, is there a precedent in the past where we open their spiritual wisdom first?" Qing Yi asked thoughtfully, "If we open their spiritual wisdom first and then teach them to practice, will there be any difference?"

"Of course there are precedents. I remember my grandfather telling me a story when I was a child. He said that in ancient times there were human emperors. One of them was called Xi Huang. He was extremely powerful and all the tribes regarded him as the great leader.

When he was young, he raised several pets, and they were the first to awaken their spiritual intelligence. Later, through a series of opportunities, he became the King of Beasts and the King of Birds, commanding all beasts and birds, and helping Emperor Xi to rule the human world. "

"Haha, Brother Dazhu, you are such a joker! This is a story from myth and legend, how can you take it seriously?"

Qing Yi kept shaking his head with a smile, but muttered in his heart, he had seen the little fox's illusion power with his own eyes, and it was a bit unusual that the big rooster was immune to the little fox's illusion. As for Hua Ni's super lazy fat cat, he really didn't know what was so magical about it.

Niu Niu, on the other hand, was very aggrieved and said, "Big brother, Xiao Bai and Hua Ni are so smart, I can't even count as well as them, they will definitely become very powerful in the future."

"Hahaha--"

Niuniu's cute words made everyone laugh. A long time passed by unknowingly. Shi Dazhu also stood up and apologized, "Thank you, brother Qingyi, for taking care of Niuniu these two days. I will take her back to the capital now."

"Niuniu, Dazhu and I hit it off right away. You can always come visit me whenever you have time!"

"Xiaobai, Hua Ni, I'm leaving now. I'll come and play with you next time!" Niu Niu said goodbye to her friends reluctantly, making the home quiet again after two days of bustle.

After Niu Niu left, no more bad news came, and even the capital area became quiet.

The wild thieves, strange beasts, and monsters that were roaming around and looting before have become silent, and the militia organized in each pavilion is guarding at all times, which makes the common people believe that everything is under the control of the monarch.

When the Left Division Captain Ran You transported the gigantic Ghost King's claw to the capital, it greatly shocked the people of the capital. Even such a terrifying Ghost King had his claw cut off, who would dare to cause trouble again?
Qing Yi, however, had his own plans. During the previous half-month turmoil, many forces emerged to stir up trouble. Now that Xing Hou was safe and sound and had suppressed the situation with force, these forces would only lurk in secret and wait for the next opportunity to arise.

Therefore, it is still necessary to strengthen one's own strength as much as possible so that one will not panic when the next turmoil comes, and it is more likely that one will make great contributions and be promoted to a corporal and granted a title.

Tu Shigu also said goodbye to Qing Yi and went home, but came back again a few days later in high spirits. He received a message from the Minister of the Imperial Household Yuanmu Qiujian, ordering thirty sets of armor for the soldiers, and after informing him of the news, he hurried home to finish the work.

Peace returned to the family, and Qing Yi was not in a hurry to go hunting. He was given 10,000 kilograms of the tens of thousands of kilograms of prey he picked up last time. Even if he had to eat dozens of kilograms of meat every day, it would be enough to eat for more than two months. So he just ate a lot and practiced swordsmanship every day.

In his spare time, he would call more than ten teenagers over the age of twelve, including Da Niu, Erhei, Xizi, Huaimu, Mengzi, Shitou, etc., to practice sword, read and write together.

Although Chai Yong and fifty other militiamen, as well as dozens of other young and strong men, are able to endure hardships and train hard every day, they are adults after all, and their achievements will be limited even if they continue to train. On the contrary, these teenagers have unlimited potential.

Before I knew it, half a month had passed.

On the first day of February, Qing Yi once again entered the Divine Lord's spiritual realm.

The scenery inside the God's spiritual realm is still different from before. He has become accustomed to these changes. This time, Mu Ling is sitting on a big rock beside a stream under a waterfall in the forest, and his white and tender fat feet are playing in the stream.

Four young men from the Sophora japonica trees were conscientiously weaving fish baskets, preparing to catch fish in the stream.

As soon as they saw Qing Yi appear again, they put down their fish baskets and came up to him with smiles.

Huai Xiaoshu said with a smile: "Congratulations to the master for his great improvement in strength. Also, the ghost king finally escaped far away, so there is no need to worry for a while."

Qing Yi heard the hidden meaning in the words and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Could it be that you could sense that the ghost king was wandering around before?"

"We were worried that the master would be under too much pressure, so we didn't tell him. Anyway, the ghost king was afraid of our brothers' combined efforts and didn't dare to come close. What's more, Pan Qing was there to protect him and block the master's spiritual aura."

The big Huai tree spoke for the first time, and his voice sounded more honest than the small Huai tree. However, his eyes were lively, and his spiritual practice was becoming more solid.

"Master, your spirit and soul are gradually becoming stable, and your two souls are blending into one. You can bring the little fox, the civet cat, and the big rooster in to practice with you in the future."

"Huh? Can I bring the little foxes in to practice?" Qing Yi was suddenly delighted. "Then can I bring in the young men like Daniu and Erhei?"

"This won't work!"

Mu Ling took the initiative to speak. He jumped down from the stone and walked on the water to Qing Yi. "To reach the God's Spirit Realm through the God's Spirit Tablet, your soul will be needed to provide strength.

Your soul power is not strong enough now, so you can only bring three little creatures in. In addition, there are requirements for the creatures you bring in. Those young men are too weak, and their souls cannot withstand the twists and turns at all. "

"If that's the case, I'll bring them in for practice next time!"

I didn't expect that there would be such a surprise in the God's spiritual realm. Qing Yi couldn't wait to see how far the little fox, the civet cat and the big rooster could go.

"Could it really be comparable to Emperor Xi's pet?"
