Peerless Tang Sect: Snow Empress Adopts and Intercepts Jiang Nannan

Chapter 115 Kong Deming

Empire of the Sun and Moon.

Offering Hall.

Two elderly men were walking down a long corridor.

One of the slightly plump, silver-haired elderly men lagged behind by half a step, his expression respectful.

This person was none other than Jing Hongchen.

It can be seen that his status was slightly lower than that of the other elder.

The other elderly man also had a frail face and wore a simple white cloth robe.

"Red Dust, is it really as you say, that brat Ye Xuanxin has mastered that technology called Soul Power Circuit?"

"Can it allow Soul Masters to master many powerful Soul Skills without obtaining Soul Rings?"

"Master Kong, yes, this is absolutely true, I saw it with my own eyes."

Jing Hongchen nodded.

"He set conditions, wanting to work with us to research this still-developing technology."

"I believe this proposal is very valuable. If it can be successfully developed, it will be a major boost to the overall strength of my Sun Moon Empire."

Kong Deming nodded.

It turns out that the other old man was Kong Deming, the head of the Sun Moon Empire's Hall of Worship. He had reached level ninety-four in soul power, possessed royal blood, held a high position, and was deeply trusted by the royal family.

"Yes, this soul power circulation technology certainly has great potential for development."

"Write a memorial later and I'll take it to His Majesty. I'm sure His Majesty will be happy to support this research."

"They might even summon this kid to the palace."

A hint of hesitation flashed in Jing Hongchen's eyes.

"only."

"This kid asked me for leave after the competition, saying he would be back a few days later."

"It's been more than two months now, and they've only sent someone to the academy to deliver a single message."

"They say they were intercepted by the Body Sect and will probably have to stay there for some time."

"Oh? The Body Sect dares to intercept our people?"

"Why intercept it? There has to be a reason!"

"Although Ye Xuanxin possesses twin martial souls, judging from his performance on the field, isn't his second martial soul the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion?"

"Master Kong, I don't know about that."

"This Ye Xuanxin is no longer just exceptionally talented; he directly impacts the millennium-long plan of my Sun Moon Empire to unify the continent."

"If absolutely necessary, I hope to go to the Body Sect with you to retrieve the person."

Jing Hongchen added that if Ye Xuanxin hadn't sent someone to deliver a message informing him of the whereabouts, and if this kid hadn't always been calm and collected, he probably would have gone crazy by now and would have already turned the Douling Empire upside down.

"."

"That's how it should be."

Kong Deming nodded, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

"Heh heh, I heard that the whole country is jubilant over this competition, and His Majesty is overjoyed, even issuing an edict to bestow the title of viscount upon the participating students?"

"They bestowed upon Ye Xuanxin and that Ye Bing'er the title of Earl, along with a series of rewards?"

"That's right, this time it has really brought honor to our Sun Moon Empire and the Royal Soul Master Academy."

"His Majesty is very pleased."

"But Ye Xuanxin has not yet returned, so he probably won't be able to attend the ceremony for bestowing the title."

Jing Hongchen said with some regret.

What an honorable scene that would be! His Majesty the Emperor himself said he would personally attend to bestow titles upon the students who had brought glory to the country. He genuinely hoped that Ye Xuanxin could be present, hoping to win over this genius with this prestigious honor.

Not to mention, they have the Limit Douluo behind them.

It would be even better if we could bring that senior to the Sun Moon Empire's camp as well.

Master Kong nodded.

It was as if the matter had been brought up again unintentionally.

"It's best for old fogies like us, who have worked diligently for the empire, not to get involved in overly complicated matters."

"Why bother? With our high level of cultivation, whoever sits in that position will have to rely on us."

"In terms of status and honor, we have reached the point where we can go no further."

"If we withdraw too easily, we will lose our excellent and transcendent position."

"If you don't think about yourself, at least think about your two grandchildren?"

Jing Hongchen was startled upon hearing this.

Confucius's words were a clear reminder to him not to get involved in the struggle for the throne.

He has recently had exchanges with several princes.

But how could he possibly control such a thing?

As the head of Mingde Hall, the dean of Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, a level 93 Title Douluo, and a level 9 Soul Master, his status speaks for itself.

They were destined to be coveted by those ambitious princes.

Even if he doesn't want to be in contact with them, he can't.

At most, he would maintain an ambiguous relationship with all parties, trying not to offend anyone.

"Alright, you can go now. Since Ye Xuanxin hasn't returned yet, don't submit your memorial for now."

"If he hasn't returned in a few days, then we'll have no choice but to make a trip to the Body Sect."

"Yes, Master Kong."

Jing Hongchen bowed deeply in respect.

He turned and left.

Kong Deming watched his retreating figure and shook his head slightly.

"Sigh, you still haven't listened. Since you're sitting there waiting for a high position and receiving all the attention, why don't you come and hide away in my ancestral hall for some peace and quiet? With me here, who would dare to disturb you?"

"The allure of power and position is truly captivating."

Jing Hongchen returned to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Then they saw Lin Yi, the head of the teaching department, walking quickly over.

"Dean, we just received a message that Ye Xuanxin and the others have returned!"

"What? You're back?"

Jing Hongchen was greatly encouraged and his face lit up with joy.

"He's back? Where is he? Tell him to come see me! No, no! I'm going to see him now!"

"Dean, he is currently outside Mingdu City."

"Outside the city? Why not go into the city?"

"The messenger who relayed the message said that it was inconvenient for him to enter the city."

"Therefore, we hope that the dean can come out of the city for a meeting."

"They said it was something important."

"I see."

"Give me the address, and I'll leave the city right now."

Jing Hongchen's eyes flickered, and she nodded.

Lin Yi handed a small note to Jing Hongchen.

Jing Hongchen then headed out of the city.

Follow the address on the note.

We found a farmhouse.

The gate was open.

Upon entering.

The first person he encountered was not Ye Xuanxin.

Instead, he was a robust old man with a powerful aura.

It gives people a strong sense of oppression.

"May I ask which senior member of the Body Sect you are?"

"I cannot be called a senior; I am a Golden Body Douluo of the Body Sect."

"Dean Hongchen, I have long admired your name, but seeing you in person is truly an honor."

Although the two sides are not openly hostile, their relationship is not good behind the scenes. However, the Golden Body Douluo's attitude is not tense.

"Dean Hongchen, there are reasons why I can only ask you to come out of the city for a meeting. Please forgive me."

At this moment, Ye Xuanxin also came out with Bingdi and Jiang Nannan.

When Jing Hongchen saw him, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"In just over two months, my soul power level has reached level 45. Not bad."

"It seems the Body Sect didn't make things difficult for you."

"I wonder what brings the Golden Body Douluo of the Body Sect here?"

"Dean Hongchen, I am here on behalf of the Body Sect to seek cooperation with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy."
