Chapter 440: Tiance Palace
Chongmingzhou is divided into six provinces, namely Mingyang Mansion, Daming Mansion, Bianyang Mansion, Chongyang Mansion, Zhaoyang Mansion, and Beiyang Mansion. Mingyang City, the capital of Chongmingzhou, is located in Mingyang Prefecture. Mingyang Mansion belongs to the northwest in the whole Chongming Continent geographically, adjacent to the Eight Desolations Continent in the north and Lei Yuzhou in the west, which is the ruling center of Du Zhenwei, the king of Chongming.
With the speed of Chu Jun and Zhao Yu, it would take more than ten days to rush from Youri City to Mingyang City. The little guy took the initiative not to follow him to Mingyang City, Chu Jun was both strange and relieved, and set off with Zhao Yu to the capital of Chongming Continent early the next morning.
Along the way, there are fierce beasts in the mountains and wild valleys, but with Chu Jun and Zhao Yu's current cultivation, as long as they are not spirit beasts above level five, they will not pose a threat to them at all. Xiaoxing stayed overnight, without saying anything all the way, and the two of them finally arrived at Mingyang City after eleven days.
The city wall of Mingyang City is as high as 200 meters, the thickness is more than 100 meters, it is majestic and high, it is majestic and condensed, the wall banner on the head of the city is displayed, and the guards who are heavily guarded can be seen patrolling on it from time to time. Standing outside the city gate that is nearly thirty meters wide, a majestic momentum will come to the face, what a majestic city!
Chu Jun and Zhao Yu were about to walk into the city when three cultivators approached them, one of them wearing a square scarf on his head, holding a folding fan in his hand, dressed as a scribe, and wearing a long beard on his chin.
"Take the liberty of disturbing, may I ask the two Daoists, but Chu Jun and Zhao Yu from Youri City of Daming Mansion?" the middle-aged scribe politely bowed his hand and asked gently. This guy looks full of heaven, has big ears, has a righteous face, is very prestigious, and has undisguised cultivation, he is actually a master of the late stage of Jindan, and the two followers next to him are both good hands in the late stage of foundation building, and one foot has already stepped into the Jindan period.
Chu Jun arched his hand and said, "Exactly!"
"In the next Dao Zhengming, Tiance Palace Ceqing, on the order of the palace master, I have come to greet the two Taoist friends!" the middle-aged scribe smiled.
Since he learned that Du Wu was the master of the Tiance Palace, Chu Jun asked Li Xiangjun to find out the situation of the Tiance Palace, so he knew that the Tiance Palace had six elders below the palace master, ten Ceqing, thirty Zhanqing, five hundred Tianwei, five hundred Cewei, and thousands of ordinary disciples. This Dao Zhengming's bearing is extraordinary, and his cultivation is even more remarkable, and Du Wu sent him to greet him to give him enough face.
Chu Jun and Zhao Yu followed Dao Zhengming into the city and went straight to the location of Tiance Palace.
Dao Zhengming arranged for Chu Jun and Zhao Yu to stay, and chatted with the two for a while before getting up and saying goodbye, and said with a smile: "The palace master has been busy recently, the two Taoist friends will rest for two days first, and when the palace master is done, he will meet the two, and there are other things to be busy with, so I will leave first!"
Dao Zhengming talked well and was polite along the way, Chu Jun had a good impression of him, so he stood up and sent him to the door.
Dao Zhengming left the courtyard with two entourages, and after hundreds of meters, the entourage on the left said indignantly: "Lord Dao, those two people are just from a place to participate in the big competition, and you need to work to go out of the city to greet you!"
As the name suggests, Ceqing is a counselor, equivalent to a staff officer in the army, Tiance Palace is only a six-queen elder, ten Ceqing, it can be seen that Dao Zhengming's status in Tiance Palace is high, but the palace master sent him to pick up two nobodies, and Dao Zhengming's two relatives were naturally very angry.
Dao Zhengming glanced at the attendant with his long beard, and scolded: "Idiot, the palace master naturally has her reason to let his subordinates pick up people!"
This entourage is usually very good at observing words and feelings, and when he received the task of picking up people, he obviously saw his adult face displeased, so he expressed his grievances in a timely manner, but he didn't expect to pat the horse's legs, and he hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake again and again.
Dao Zhengming stroked his beard and continued to move forward, and the attendant couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Dao Zhengming is one of the top ten ministers of Tiance Palace, ranking second only to Liu Yong, the secretary of the Great Strategy, so he was indeed a little unhappy when Du Wu ordered him to meet Chu Jun and Zhao Yu, but when he saw Chu Jun and Zhao Yu, he changed his opinion. Dao Zhengming's ability to be the Ceqing of the Heavenly Ce Palace is naturally not a small-bellied chicken intestine, a man with a small stomach and a short eye, and when he saw Chu Jun and Zhao Yu, he immediately understood the intention of the palace master. Chu Jun is already in the early stage of Jindan at the age of twenty-one or twelve, and that Zhao Yu is even more amazing, he is in the middle of Jindan before he is in his early twenties, and he is even more powerful than the palace master, it is strange that the palace master of such a character does not try his best to win him over, the displeasure in Dao Zhengming's heart was swept away, and he received the two warmly and friendly.
Dao Zhengming's vision of people is still poisonous, it is expected that with the qualifications of Chu Jun and Zhao Yu, his future achievements will definitely not be below him, plus the age is similar to that of the palace master, as long as he can successfully assist the palace master from the eighteenth floor this time, he will be able to become the left arm and right arm of the palace master in the future, and at this time, it will be beneficial and harmless to befriend them.
Chu Jun and Zhao Yu stayed in the Tiance Palace, and on the evening of the third day, Du Wu sent someone to summon them. Chu Jun couldn't help but secretly wonder, this female man put up a score when he returned here, Zhao Yu didn't have Chu Jun's "rebellious" idea of freedom and equality, but he was a princess of the dynasty, and it was not normal if he didn't put on a score.
Chu Jun and Zhao Yu followed the maid who led the way to a large hall, and the three big characters "Tiance Palace" were inscribed on the horizontal plaque, and the words were not good, but the scribbled pen edge carried a kind of wild and uninhibited, faintly revealing a sword intent. Chu Jun's heart beat rapidly, and there seemed to be a resonance in his body, the thunder dragon sword in the dantian trembled uneasily, and a wisp of tyrannical sword intent almost came out of his body, and he hurriedly looked away in fright, calming the impulsive thunder dragon sword, and when he looked up at the plaque, his eyes changed. I saw that there were three scribbled small characters at the place below - Du Heping.
Chu Jun's heart moved, Du Heping is Du Zhenwei's expression, this plaque is actually the handwriting of the Chongming Continent Lord, Chongming King Du Zhenwei, no wonder just a few words imply such a terrible sword intent, obviously, this Du Zhenwei is a sword master. However, what puzzled Chu Jun the most was that a kendo master should be obsessed with swordsmanship, how could he give birth to so many children, if he practiced the "sword" under his crotch, it would be another matter.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Yu asked softly by tugging at the stunned man.
Chu Jun shook his head and waved away the absurd thoughts in his mind, grinned, and said: "Since Du Zhenwei personally inscribed a plaque to Du Wu, it can be seen that he is indeed very fond of this daughter. ”
Zhao Yu helplessly whitened Chu Jun's eyes, and only this daring villain dared to call the name of the Lord of Chongming Continent in Mingyang City.
Chu Jun and Zhao Yu walked into the Tiance Hall and found that there were already seven or eight people sitting in the hall, and the kid from Wei An was impressively in the ranks. Everyone in the hall looked at the two of them in unison, and when they saw Zhao Yu's appearance, their eyes lit up unexpectedly, after all, such a level of beauty is rare in the world.
Wei An stood up and said with a smile: "You guys are here!"
Chu Jun and Zhao Yu found a place to sit down in the hall, and Wei An enthusiastically acted as an introducer.
It turned out that the eight people in the hall were all contestants who participated in the third round of the competition this time, that is, the people of the Du Dance series, and there were a total of thirty contestants who could enter the third round, and it was quite good that the Du Dance series occupied ten places, but I don't know how many people could enter the top twelve.
"Hehe, there is a beauty of the quality as a partner, it seems that this time it is the right one, hey, hello!" a smooth tone of oil cavity sounded very discordantly.
