Star Luo Secret Treasure! Thunder God's Token!
Three days later, at dawn, banners fluttered Heaven Dou City.
The delegation's motorcade was already fully prepared and ready to depart, with luxurious carriages lined up in a magnificent display.
Each carriage was pulled by four white horse Soul Beast, their coats neat and their bearing majestic.
The Moonlight Pavilion delegation led by Tang Yuehua was the main force of the return visit group.
She stood at the very front, followed by a dozen or so carefully selected noblemen, each dressed in fine clothes and exuding an extraordinary air!
When she saw Ye Hua leading the girls over, a complex emotion still flashed across her eyes.
Xiao Wu linked arms with Ye Hua's left arm, while Zhu Zhuqing walked quietly on the right.
The others followed closely behind; she even saw Ah Yin and Jiangzhu!
Only Ye Hua has the status to relax like he's on vacation; how could anyone else dare to relax?
However, they did indeed accept the invitation to visit the Star Luo Empire...
"Master," Ye Hua smiled, "This is the return visit delegation you mentioned the other day?"
"I am going to keep the appointment, and His Majesty insisted on sending someone to accompany me. I trouble you to accompany me!"
Tang Yuehua stepped forward to greet him, a bitter smile playing on her lips.
She was also ordered by Xue Ye to go to the Star Luo Empire to investigate its true strength.
The Star Luo Empire has offered its bargaining chips to win over Ye Hua, and they must offer theirs in return!
"Night Alliance Leader, the journey to the Star Luo Empire is long."
"I have arranged for supplies to be replenished at post stations along the way, and we should arrive in Star Luo City in about seven days!"
Ye Hua nodded. "Thank you for your trouble, Master."
Thanks to the Soul Beast pulling the cart, the speed was much faster.
He remained calm, glanced at the Moonlight Pavilion delegation, and quickly spotted Tang San.
Today, Tang San wore a light blue dress and had a white jade hairpin in her hair, looking like a delicate and beautiful woman.
Ha, he's up to no good!
But it's fine, let Ah Yin see his true colors again!
Ye Hua sneered inwardly, remaining calm as he helped the girls into the car.
The procession, in a grand and imposing manner, departed from Heaven Dou City and proceeded along the official road.
The scenery along the way gradually transitions from bustling cities to vast plains.
Then came vast wheat fields and fragrant orchards.
Autumn is almost here, it's time for the harvest!
The girls were also captivated by the countryside scenery, their eyes glued to it.
After they had grown tired of the wheat fields, they entered the territory of the Star Luo Empire.
The customs and culture of the Star Luo Empire are completely different from those of the Heaven Dou Empire!
The Heaven Dou Empire values elegance and refinement; even the signs of roadside teahouses are decorated with carvings.
The Star Luo Empire, on the other hand, exudes a simple, practical, and even rugged feel.
The tavern sign was just a plain wooden sign, somewhat blackened.
But the aroma of the wine wafted for miles, making Ye Hua stop and savor it!
Its exterior is simple, but its interior is exquisite, just like fine wine that needs no bush!
Xiao Wu stuck her head out of the car window, her nostrils flaring, "It smells so good! Brother, is that cider?"
Ye Hua smiled and pulled her back, "Almost there. If you like it, I'll have the Long Night Alliance buy some to take back."
"Really?" Xiao Wu's eyes lit up.
Wang Qiu'er also chimed in, "Me too! But I want mead!"
Huo Wu retorted, "I want strong liquor!"
"Hey, hey, hey," Ning Rongrong said, rubbing her forehead, "Can't you guys have some self-respect?"
"Then don't drink it," Xiao Wu tilted her head. "Last time with the barley wine, you were so drunk you couldn't wake up!"
"This..." Ning Rongrong was speechless. She had only gotten drunk by accident because she was looking for something new.
"I have everything!" Ye Hua said indulgently.
Why should the Long Night Alliance be stingy with the revenue from selling Soul Guidance Weapon?
Inside the carriage at the front, Tang Yuehua heard laughter and commotion coming from behind and shook her head helplessly.
Tang San, sitting next to her, had his hands folded on his knees, remaining quiet and well-behaved without making a fuss.
"Xiao San," Tang Yuehua said in a low voice, "You'd better behave yourself on this trip and don't cause any more trouble."
Tang San nodded obediently, "Don't worry, Auntie, I know what's important!"
Upon seeing this, Tang Yuehua's lips twitched.
Hopefully, the Xiao San can correct her character.
This way, the mother and son can be reunited!
Clearly, Tang Yuehua was unaware of the mess Tang San had made in the cave!
Seven days later, the group arrived in Star Luo City.
Star Luo City is more magnificent than Heaven Dou City, with its city walls built of whole granite blocks, numerous arrow towers, and tight defenses.
But today, what awaits them is not a rain of arrows, but Prince Davis of Xingluo!
The city gates were wide open, and the ceremonial guards were impressive. Hundreds of soldiers lined up on both sides, their iron armor gleaming with a cold, sharp light!
"Night Alliance Leader! We've been waiting for you!"
"How have you been since the turmoil in the Far North Forest?"
"Zhu Qing!" Zhu Zhuyun also walked over quickly.
She's more mature than she was a few years ago, but the stubbornness and spirit in her eyes are still there.
"Sister!" Zhu Zhuqing opened her arms.
Since Zhu Zhuqing broke off her relationship with Dai Mubai, the two sisters have had a good relationship.
Zhu Zhuqing wanted to hug her sister, but her sister hugged her instead!
"It's never the case that the younger sister carries the older sister; it's always the older sister carrying the younger sister!"
Seeing this, Dai Weisi also gestured for him to proceed.
The welcoming banquet was held in the main hall of the palace, which was resplendent with gold and jade.
The Star Luo Empire looked at each other in bewilderment upon seeing so many guests.
Never before in the diplomatic history of these Two Great Empires had anything like this!
Dai Weisi raised his glass, "Today's banquet serves two purposes: first, to welcome Night Alliance Leader, and second, to celebrate Night Alliance Leader!"
"The defense of the Far North Forest against the monsters is an unparalleled achievement! If it weren't for the intervention of the Long Night Alliance, the borders of the Star Luo Empire would likely have been devastated!"
All the civil and military officials in the hall raised their cups in unison.
Ye Hua smiled slightly and raised his cup in return.
After several rounds of drinks, Dai Weisi didn't delay. He took out a brocade box from his sleeve and personally handed it to Ye Hua.
"Night Alliance Leader, please take a look."
The hall fell silent instantly.
All the Star Luo Empire had their eyes focused on the brocade box.
Some people envied them, some Envy, and some secretly gritted their teeth.
But no one dared to voice their doubts.
Ye Hua took the brocade box and slowly opened it.
Inside lay a palm-sized silver badge, shaped like a lightning bolt.
Its surface is smooth, completely unadorned, and even reflective—it's almost too rustic!
[bite--]
[Host detected to have acquired the "Extreme Speed Sacred Medal," a relic of the Speed God]
[Speed God: An ancient deity who wields the essence of speed, Second-Level God in the Divine Realm, whose legacy remains on the continent, awaiting a destined individual]
[Current holding status: Not enabled]
[Activation Requirements: Possess speed and agility that would impress even the gods, and complete Ninefold Divine Examination]
Ye Hua was greatly disappointed.
Second-Level God?
Speed God?
That's it?
But he still smiled politely.
Dai Weisi seemed to have anticipated his reaction and laughed, "Don't be hasty, Night Alliance Leader, this is just the key."
"A key?" Ye Hua raised an eyebrow.
"The true national treasure is hidden in a secret cave in the mountains outside Star Luo City."
"This token is needed to open the gate."
"That treasure is said to be related to Thunder God."
"Whoever gains its approval has the chance to become a god!"
Upon hearing this, the air in the hall seemed to freeze.
The Star Luo Empire had heard this legend since childhood and were long since immune to it.
Tang San, who was sitting at the end of the table, suddenly clenched his wine cup tightly!
Thunder God!
That sounds amazing!
There's even a chance to become a god!
This was practically tailor-made for him!
He suppressed his wildly beating heart and tried to remain calm.
But the throbbing veins on his forehead betrayed his excitement!
Ye Hua glanced at him without changing his expression, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Brother Dai," Ye Hua put down his wine cup, "May I bring some men with me? Let's see who can gain the treasure's approval."
Dai Weisi laughed heartily, "Night Alliance Leader, you're being too polite."
"Since I've given you the gift, it's your decision. You can bring whoever you want!"
"However, I really can't think of anyone else who could gain recognition besides you!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Hua shook his head slightly.
Thunder God is merely First-Level God; he's not worthy of him!
But he's qualified enough to be inherited by the girl next to him.
For example, Zi JI possesses a small amount of lightning elemental power.
"That's good," Ye Hua, his eyes full of mockery as he looked at Tang San. "There's no time like the present, let's set off now!"
Tang San noticed the gaze and a chill ran down his spine.
Ye Hua wouldn't be trying to test me, would he?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
This could be the key to becoming a god!
What if... what if I succeed?
I, Tang San, possess the Great Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, and the Clear Sky Hammer crackling with lightning!
Furthermore, with my awakened Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline, my talent has increased dramatically, and I now possess two major domains!
In contrast, Ye Hua, despite his strength, has absolutely nothing to do with lightning!
This Godhood belongs to me alone!
Thinking of this, Tang San felt more confident, and his unease completely disappeared.
What's there to be afraid of?
If Ye Hua dares to let him go, he'll teach Ye Hua a lesson!
Let him see the teachings of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record--
Never pretend to be weak to fool others!
Otherwise, you might turn into that pig!
Tang San began to fantasize about gaining the approval of the Thunder God, Ye Hua displayed a fascinating expression!
"Great!" Dai Weisi said decisively, "I'll arrange it right now!"
The group left Star Luo City and headed towards the mountains on the outskirts of the city.
The mountains stretch endlessly, covered with lush, verdant trees.
But as they went deeper, they discovered that lightning elements were floating in the air.
After a while, an open space appeared before them, the soil cracked and barren, standing out starkly from its surroundings.
Ye Hua touched his chin. Suddenly, a clearing appeared in the dense forest, like a large patch of hair being shaved off!
"Night Alliance Leader." Dai Weisi pointed to the boulder in the open space.
The groove in the center is shaped like a lightning bolt.
Ye Hua stepped forward and pressed the silver badge into his hand.
Buzz--
A blinding silver light suddenly exploded!
The ground trembled violently, then split open to both sides, revealing a dark entrance!
At the same time, an overwhelming, suffocating pressure surged forth from the depths of the cave!
Thump!
The Moonlight Pavilion students standing at the very front instantly knelt down, trembling all over!
Tang Yuehua, being the weakest, paled instantly, but fortunately Ye Hua pulled her behind him.
Xiao Wu and the others were also suffering, so Ye Hua simply released his aura to clash with the oppressive force.
In the end, Ye Hua prevailed!
"Don't be offended, this is the majesty of God."
Dai Weisi was still sweating profusely, but he felt better after Ye Hua made his move.
But just as he was about to lead the way into the cave entrance—
Bang!!!
He alone knelt on the ground!
His head slammed violently into the ground!
