Swallowing the Heavens

Chapter 836 - Ancient Emperor's Intent

Wu Yu had defeated the four emissaries.

However, whether the crowning ceremony was over or not, was still up to the Regent Emperor, Sha Tian.

However, the crowd was still immersed in the shocking experience brought by Wu Yu, and for a while, they didn't manage to recover from it.

To be honest, every time there was an emissary bestowing the title upon them, they would basically have to knock down the newly conferred emissary. This way, the old envoys could be considered as putting on airs for the new emperor.

However, Wu Yu was an exception.

The Regent had arranged for two people to fight. He had taken the initiative to challenge the four of them.

Do you want to continue anyway?

People were a little worried. If Wu Yu was given an even more exaggerated opponent, he would be able to defeat him. This would really be embarrassing for many of the old Imperial Envoys.

After all, Wu Yu and Prince Wen were both the youngest. Yet he was already in the limelight.

Most of the cultivators, princes, ministers, and royalty held their breaths. They were still impressed by Wu Yu and felt a sense of admiration.

Those with outstanding talents would still be respected wherever they went. People even began to imagine that with Wu Yu's help, even though Prince Wen Li was young, he might have a chance in the future. Of course, this could be over a hundred years. After two hundred years, Ancient Emperor Yan Huang would be able to set up a new emperor.

In the blink of an eye, Prince Wen Ming would rise in power as well.

Many people were already satisfied with today's ending. After witnessing Wu Yu's talent, most people didn't have any intention of uncovering his potential.

Besides the remaining princes and princesses, especially those who had been defeated, they were not willing to give up.

Those at the Dao Seeking and above were all on the verge of making a move, but they were also a bit worried that they would become Wu Yu's stepping stones.

"Emperor Yu's envoy's strength seems to not want us to think so easily, he must have a lot of secrets, and today is Emperor Wen's good day, why not have a good time, in my opinion, only the envoys of the Three Calamities Dao Seeking are able to barely fight against him." Sure enough, not long after, a minister spoke up. This person's qualifications and position is also very high, he should be the 'Great Sikong', someone with a high position in charge of the gods.

After he had finished speaking, there were a few princes and princesses who were very satisfied. Obviously, it was because some of them gave him a meaningful glance that this Great Sikong would stand out and speak.

Standing beside Qu Yin, Qin Lie exuded the aura of a scholar.

After that, there were a few older people who suggested changing Wu Yu to an emissary of the Dao Seeking stage and continuing the battle. With these characters as the starting point, there were many people who started to jeer. For a time, there were many voices that gave the Regent a bit of pressure.

Prince Wen didn't like it.

Wu Yu's performance today was more than enough.

Finally, the Regent coughed, and as he was about to make a decision, the crowd quieted down, filled with anticipation. They had even begun to find Wu Yu a suitable opponent.

If the Regent agreed, Wu Yu would be under a lot of pressure. Honestly speaking, his four opponents were already his limit. Even with his Heaven Swallowing Physique, it was still impossible for him to deal with the three evils.

Wu Yu almost lost his life when he faced off against a Ghost Formation Master.

Hence, his mood fluctuated slightly as well. Naturally, he didn't want to continue. Today's challenges were indeed a great harvest for him. If they continued their challenge, they would be completely exhausted, and they would also suffer the humiliation of being defeated.

The Regent's face was solemn as he said, "The crowning ceremony was originally a joyous occasion. Emperor Wen's performance was astonishing and worthy of respect. His methods had also shown that he was still not enough to challenge the three calamities Dao Seeking experts. There was no need to continue. To be able to return alive today, it is no simple feat. I declare that the conferred ceremony has come to an end, and I congratulate Prince Wen Ming and the envoy of Emperor Wen. "

Before he could finish his sentence, everyone was already dumbstruck. The Regent actually didn't want to continue, and wanted to force Wu Yu to retreat, just like that? Didn't that mean that the Emperor's envoy that was defeated before had lost face for nothing? The princes and princesses, especially their brothers and sisters, would never be willing to give up.

After all, it was also Di Sha who had been in charge in the past. Yet, he showed no mercy to the other emissaries.

This way, many people didn't dare to say much. When they thought about it carefully, they were more or less able to guess what was going on.

Firstly, how long would Di Sha be able to become Regent? It all depended on his older brother, Ancient Emperor Yan Huang.

Secondly, Wu Yu was the emissary of the Yan Huang Emperor. Since Emperor Sha Tian wanted to curry favor with the Yan Huang Emperor, he naturally had to give him face.

Third, Prince Wen Li's talent was extraordinary, surpassing many of his elder brothers. He had revived after dying on the path of the Immortals, and had a strange experience. Ancient Emperor Yan Huang had assigned Wu Yu to be his Imperial Emissary, and indistinctly, two strange people had been requested by Ancient Emperor Yan Huang to come together. This seemed to imply something, and the Regent King must have understood it better than anyone else.

To put it bluntly, they guessed that the Regent might have felt that Prince Wen Li was the successor chosen by Ancient Emperor Yan Huang.

Otherwise, why would it be so special? The other brothers and sisters didn't have this sort of treatment?

Therefore, he didn't want to make things difficult for Wu Yu, so it was understandable.

Of course, these were all just guesses. Furthermore, if one were to recall them, there would be some kind of deference to them.

As for the princes and princesses, which one of them was wrong? Now that such a change had occurred, they were all silent. The Regent's decision had indeed forced them to think in that direction.

"Yes, all of you can disperse now." The Regent waved his hand and turned around. He first soared into the clouds and headed towards the Imperial City. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's sight.

At this point, the bestowment was indeed over.

Everyone looked at each other. They were still reluctant to leave.

However, the first ones to leave were the frustrated princes and princesses. This time, many people would probably hate Prince Wen Zi because of this younger brother of theirs. It could be seen that his brothers and sisters were clearly unhappy, and all of them coldly left the stage, especially the Emperor, who was defeated by Wu Yu.

"Return home."

The princes and officials did not say much. They were pondering over everything as they quickly left the hall.

Now that the main characters had left, it would be meaningless for the cultivators of the Divine Capital to surround Yan Wu Gate. At this time, Wu Yu and the others had also entered the carriage and were returning to the Imperial City, then the carriage and the Emperor's Mansion.

"It's gone, it's gone."

"Since all the important figures have left, let's not stay here and watch the show."

"I don't really understand. What is going on?"

"You don't even understand this? Prince Wen could be the next emperor set up by the Ancient Emperor himself! Even the Regent didn't make things difficult for Wu Yu, what do you think? "Is the Regent not smarter than we are?"

"So that's how it is!"

This matter quickly spread throughout the entire Yan Huang Country, even to the world of Yan Fu.

Prince Wen, a young prince who was originally a nobody, had many shining brothers and sisters on his list, all of which were in the third level Dao Seeking stage and could all become immortals. But now, he had surpassed the reputation of many of his older brothers and had become the one who could be decided by them.

Of course, there were also those who thought that everyone was overthinking things. Emperor Wen Ming was still so young, and could not tell anything at all. Although he had good talent, he was still a long way off from Ancient Emperor Yan Huang when he was young.

However, because Wu Yu was a little special, it seemed that he was forcefully connected to Prince Wen Li a little too far.

But no matter what, this kind of discussion was going on in every corner of the Ancient Kingdom of Yanhuang, and people were having a heated debate.

On the way back to Emperor Wen's mansion, Prince Wen had something on his mind. He remained silent for quite a while, but when he approached the mansion, he looked up at Wu Yu and asked, "Wu Yu, do you think what they said might be true?"

"What is it?"

"My royal father intends to let me take over." He was very direct.

Wu Yu, of course, had heard of this. He didn't know the truth, but to him, he was well aware of his own position. It was impossible for him to guess the Yan Huang Emperor's thoughts.

So he said, "I think it's best to consider this matter. It is impossible for anyone to know what he is thinking. "

After all, he was a god-like existence.

"Oh, I see! You're right. Since no one could guess the answer to his question, they might as well just ignore it. The more they struggled with the matter, the more depressed and nervous they became. It really makes sense. " Prince Wen finally showed a smile. Wu Yu's words had helped him to come to a conclusion. At the very least, he couldn't treat this as real or else it would be a burden to him to continue moving forward.

It seemed that he was quite confident.

"In the evening, I want to invite all my friends to give you a welcoming party. Although I don't have many friends in the capital, there are still dozens of people there. "

"No problem."

There was definitely such a scene left in the capital. Now that the crowning ceremony was over, Wu Yu had plenty of time to cultivate, so he wasn't in a rush for the night.

"Are there any beautiful women?" Nanshan gazed at the moon and interrupted.

Prince Wen Mu paused for a moment, then laughed out loud and said, "I guarantee that you will be dazzled when you see it. You will be able to follow Wu Yu and I will definitely not mistreat you. After all, it is said that you have increased my prestige by defeating the 'Three Gods Kun Wu'."

"That's good." Nanshan gazed at the moon, and his mouth split into a knowing smile.

In this sort of situation, he was more interested than Wu Yu.

After returning to Emperor Yu's Mansion, Prince Wen had already sent out a communication talisman, and those noble young masters of the Divine Capital had rushed over. An endless stream of people had started to fill the courtyard of the mansion.
