Chapter 2654 Grand Reception
(PS: Memorial Day.)
Zhou Shu was surprised.
He had no idea that Xuchangjie would value him to this extent.
The seven-color rainbow bridge extending from the Qi Feng layer to the main hall, tens of thousands of half-dragons lined the streets to welcome them, hundreds of strong men of all races forming an honor guard, and a palace so gorgeous that even the Hunyuan Golden Immortal would be surprised. High class banquet...
This is a grand treatment that Zhou Shu has never experienced before, and he has never even thought about it.
This cannot be prepared in three days. It seems that King Mu has already started preparations.
Looking at the dishes made with Pixiu meat in front of him, Zhou Shu looked at the only person in the palace besides him, King Mu, and sighed, "King Mu, do you treat other people like this? No wonder you can recruit them. There are so many strong aliens, I almost regret my previous decision, haha."
King Mu looked solemn and shook his head, "Of course not. Your Excellency is the first person I have entertained with such sincerity."
Zhou Shu said slowly, "King Mu, I don't seem to be worthy of you."
King Mu stared at Zhou Shu and said word by word, "If even the Human Emperor is not worthy of this kind of treatment, then who else is?"
Zhou Shu was shocked and looked at King Mu with slight confusion in his eyes.
Human Emperor, I haven’t heard this word for a long time, and I almost forgot that I am the Human Emperor.
Since leaving Zhutian, he has put the title of Human Emperor on the shelf and put it aside in his heart. His weak strength forced him to hide himself, and at the same time, he also felt that the honor of Human Emperor was not recognized by Zhutian. Recognition - this is also something that puzzles him. Because of the Xuanyuan Sword, it is understandable that the Human Emperor in the Xuanhuang Realm is not respected, but in the Immortal Realm, human practitioners seem to be secretive about the Human Emperor. , Zhou Shu inquired for a long time but did not get any information about the Human Emperor - so no matter what, he would not say that he was the Human Emperor.
King Mu recognized that he was the Human Emperor, which also meant that he knew that he was Zhou Shu. When did he know it? How did he know?
Zhou Shu smiled slightly and said, "Is King Mu joking?"
"of course not."
King Mu said slowly, "There is no need to murder me. There are only two of us here. I will not let it out. I treat this matter sincerely. I think this is what I should and must do. His Excellency the Human Emperor.”
Zhou Shu was silent for a while and then said slowly, "Why did King Mu say that?"
"It's very simple."
King Mu said calmly, "I thought we would be the same kind of people before, and the moment I saw Your Excellency, I was even more sure of this idea. You, like me, have enough talent and ambition, but we haven't obtained it yet." It’s just a corresponding status, but you and I both believe that this day will undoubtedly come, maybe not long ago, don’t you think so, Your Excellency?”
Zhou Shu's mind moved slightly, as if he understood something, "If I agree to your invitation, what will you do to me?"
"It's still as solemn now. Having a human emperor as my subordinate, what else can I be dissatisfied with, hahaha!"
King Mu laughed, but quickly stopped and said slowly, "But I know that's impossible. Your Excellency has great ambitions and will never be tempted by me, so I'm just asking casually. You don't need to pay too much attention to it. You and I are destined to be Equal friends, or allies.”
Zhou Shu was silent for a few moments, then smiled and said, "Maybe so."
"That puts me at ease. Let's drink and drink."
King Mu poured a cup of wine for Zhou Shu and said slowly, "Your Excellency, you don't want to know why I know your true identity?"
"I was a little confused before, but when I think about it carefully, I realized that I was negligent."
Zhou Shu shook his head gently, "You are a descendant of the Golden Dragon. You should know a Golden Dragon who ascended from the Xuanhuang Realm, right?"
King Mu hesitated and said with a smile, "I thought I could keep you guessing for a while, but it seems that there is no chance. Yes, five hundred years ago, when I returned to the Golden Dragon Realm, I went to do an escort. A descendant of the golden dragon from the Xuanhuang Realm."
Zhou Shu seemed to be thinking, "King Mu, didn't you break away from the Golden Dragon Realm?"
"It's not a breakaway, it's just a bet with several elders in the clan that you can't go back unless there is something urgent, and you can't use your identity as a member of the Golden Dragon clan..." King Mu paused, "Actually, it's all trivial matters. If you are interested, you can do it later Speak slowly."
Zhou Shu said quickly, "I'm the one who said too much. King Mu doesn't need to pay attention to it."
"The descendant I brought up is called Jin Xuan, ranking third among the descendants of the Golden Dragon Clan."
King Mu looked into the distance, "The reason why he is so high is because his bloodline is extremely pure and even carries the aura of the Golden Dragon Ancestor. If it weren't for the elders who needed to test him, I am afraid he would have been ranked first immediately, with the greatest possibility. In fact, I think he is the most likely to succeed the Golden Dragon King, even if he is in third place."
Zhou Shu secretly sighed, this is the gap.
The little dragon he rescued from the eyes of the sea soared into the sky and was most likely to become the leader of the Golden Dragon Kingdom. However, he himself was still ups and downs in the heavens. So far, he didn't even have a piece of territory of his own. No, he didn't even get the territory. No qualifications.
But looking at King Mu's expression, he didn't seem to have much hatred when it came to Jin Xuan, which was a bit strange.
King Mu smiled and said, "Your Excellency, do you think I should hate him? I don't like that the Dragon Clan places too much emphasis on bloodline, because I value ability more. The main reason why I hate the children of the Golden Dragon Clan is that they are too incompetent, and this Jin Xuan is not only powerful , and he is not as humble as the Dragon Clan. Even if I have some hatred for the Golden Dragon Clan, it will be difficult to affect him. Sometimes I also feel that he may be the best candidate to succeed the king."
Zhou Shu nodded lightly, "That's it."
King Mu looked at Zhou Shu, his calm eyes flashed, like thunder falling, and the waves surged in an instant, "He is his king, and I have long decided to go my own way. I came out to create a new country for myself. It’s not for the sake of the Golden Dragon Clan, I won’t take it seriously as a mere Golden Dragon Clan.”
Feeling the confidence in his words, Zhou Shu nodded unconsciously.
He underestimated King Mu a little. If he wanted to create his own country out of hatred, his vision would be narrow. King Mu would not do that.
"That Jin Xuan, the one he respects the most is you, the Human Emperor."
King Mu looked at Zhou Shu and said solemnly, "Because I am the one who leads him, he talks to me more, and occasionally he comes to my place. Almost every time we have a long conversation, he will mention you." Name, he said that you were the master who changed his destiny and allowed him to grow into a real dragon. You are also the recognized human emperor in the Xuanhuang Realm. You are the greatest contributor to the Xuanhuang Realm’s re-immortality in tens of thousands of years, and you are a truly great human being.”
He smiled and said, "To be honest, I don't believe it. He is just a child and has no idea what greatness is."
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, "You shouldn't believe it in the first place. Next time you see him, just say you've seen me. That's not the case."
King Mu did not answer, but took out a portrait, "He brought this to the Dragon Realm. Do you think it looks like you?"
In the painting, a tall and straight young man stands with his sword horizontally facing a huge, violent golden dragon. There is no trace of fear on his face, and behind him is a blue dragon swimming slowly. Colorful little snake.
