The King of Black Fog

Chapter 280: Court Guarding the New Year_3


This heir to the Eastern Duke can actually use magic beside the Jiajing Emperor!

With just this kind of magic, it looks spectacular, but once unleashed, most of the Capital might be destroyed in the flames.

This bastard, Li Changzhou, is indeed the culprit behind Fire Burning Prague!

While these people were still pondering this mess, the civil and military officials, royalty, eunuchs, and palace maids had already knelt down in unison.

The Cabinet Chief Xia Yan exclaimed loudly, "When the Grand Ancestor Emperor was born, the sky filled the room with a red glow; today, the Divine Dragon of Fire has descended, summoned by the divine spirits—your Majesty's virtue surpasses that of the High Emperors, illuminating the annals of eternity!"

All the people prostrated themselves on the ground, "Long live our Emperor! Long live! Long live forever!"

The voice was deafening, shaking heaven and earth, and the golden bricks of the Forbidden City, the imperial road stones, the golden glazed tiles, and the red palace walls seemed even more indestructible in the sound.

"Good! Good! Good!" Jiajing's sacred heart was overjoyed, extremely thrilled, and he immediately proclaimed Li Changzhou the title of Great True Man, Divine Immortal Marquis, an annual stipend of three thousand stones, and a grand amnesty throughout the realm.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Li Changzhou then stood up, bowed, and smiled as he spoke.

The group of Daoists each bore a grim look. Li Changzhou's move was terrifying, but to those who had been conferred the title of True Man at the scene, this was nothing more than a spectacle.

But within the Forbidden City, suppressed by the Jiajing Emperor's Dragon Vein, they could not fully unleash the power of their magic.

Everyone had the same thought: In the absence of heroes, mediocrity emerges!

The second thought was: One must find out why Li Changzhou could use magic inside the palace!

Li Changzhou himself also wanted to know how he could use magic inside the palace.

His skills were mostly supportive, such as Blood Pearl, Teleportation, Concentration, etc., with few lethal ones. "Saint Master" indeed had skills like Thunder Strike, but there were no means of concealment; once a fight started, he would definitely be discovered, and with the Imperial Guards closing in, he could only flee in defeat.

Unless absolutely necessary, he did not want to leave the Forbidden City, where the key to his mission with the Jiajing Emperor lay.

Just as he thought this, suddenly a loud rumble sounded, and thunder roared in the sky, followed immediately by heavy rain pouring down incessantly.

When everyone looked outside the palace, the ground was already shrouded in the misty rain in the night.

In the sky, the glowing "Record of the Divine Dragon of Fire, where True Men thrive and all gods pay homage, heralding the prosperity of the Jiajing era," melted away into the rainy night.

Jiajing's face darkened as if doused with cold water, awakening from the divine aura of ruling over all.

The air inside the hall congealed, and an indescribable force pressed down, the cold moisture of the rain pervaded outside, and everyone's mana disappeared.

The true masters, facing the Jiajing Emperor, bowed their heads submissively, glancing slyly at Li Changzhou, taking pleasure in his misfortune.

This was the retribution for offending the Flood Dragon King!

In the hall, filled only with the sound of rain, Turquoise Pool rose laughing, "Husband, you just said there were no demons or monsters, and now you have attracted all those chaotic insurgents and demonic spirits."

"Your Majesty," she bowed to the Jiajing Emperor, "please allow my husband to perform the exorcism to bring these evil spirits for your Majesty to enlighten."

The Jiajing Emperor asked Huang Jin, "What time is it now?"

"Your Majesty, it is the fourth period of the Hai Hour."

"Before the fourth period of the Zi Hour, I want to see the corpses of these evil spirits, and witness the clouds clear and the rain stop," the Jiajing Emperor stared at Li Changzhou.

Indeed, everything came with risks.

"Wait a moment, Your Majesty, I will be right back," Li Changzhou smiled, still appearing completely confident.

The Jiajing Emperor hesitated for a moment, then added, "Control the Immortal Wondrous Transformation - Yuan Jun, along with Lan Daoheng, Lantian Jade, Li Xidao; the four of you go with the Divine Immortal Marquis."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Turquoise Pool bowed.

"As you command," Lan Daoheng, Lantian Jade, and Li Xidao also bowed, and exchanged glances.
