"Who do you think you are? If I became emperor, I would definitely be a wise and benevolent ruler."
"Eh~~ Do you think I believe you or not?" Sky Dream Ice Silkworm rolled her eyes at him, Electrolux beside her couldn't help but laugh:
"Don't talk about him, you little bug. Even if he can't become a wise ruler, judging from the current situation, Little Yu's future throne is definitely secure. There's no need to worry about him so much."
Cao Yu laughed and said, " Elder Yi, you see things more clearly, but I absolutely must take the position of a wise ruler."
"You little rascal, whatever you want, haha!"
Upon arriving in Sunrise City, Cao Yu quickly spotted Xuan Zi and his group. Concealing his cultivation level, Cao Yu leisurely flew over.
" Xuan Zi, are you still waiting here?"
Xuan Zi turned and glanced at him, then said with a smile, "We've been waiting for you here specifically so we could get some wine."
Elder Zhuang, standing to the side, couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't forget to leave us some extra wine when you're ransacking our house, kid."
Cao Yu readily nodded, "Definitely, definitely, these wines must be reserved for the elders."
"By the way, what's the situation like inside Sunrise City?"
Elder Lin slowly began to speak, " Xu Tianran hanged himself. It's a pity for such an ambitious emperor."
"They're all proud and arrogant, unable to bear seeing someone reduced to a prisoner. Xu Tianran really has some backbone." Xuan Zi took a sip of wine, smacked his lips a few times, and his words were full of praise.
In his view, Xu Tianran was still honorable in defeat. If it weren't for Cao Yu's meddling, he would have started planning years ago.
Perhaps the balance of power in this imperial war will now tip in favor of the Sun Moon Empire.
After all, the Sun Moon Empire's glorious record against the other two great empires was well-documented; they were utterly annihilated, capturing the enemy's capital in just a few days.
However, they encountered a tough opponent like the Star Luo Empire.
After saying that, Xuan Zi glanced at him, but he was stunned for a moment, and even slowed down the way he was eating the chicken leg.
"How come I can't see through your cultivation level now?"
The reason for this situation is either that Cao Yu has a treasure that conceals his cultivation level, or that this kid's cultivation level is higher than his.
But that's highly unlikely. How could one's cultivation level jump so quickly? No matter how hard he racked his brains, he still found the idea utterly absurd.
That's absolutely outrageous.
After hearing his words, the elders also turned their gazes to Cao Yu. And to be honest, after observing him for a while, they couldn't discern Cao Yu's cultivation level.
Cao Yu smiled smugly and said, "Hehe! You guys don't know this, but my cultivation level has already reached level 100."
The old men's faces instantly showed disbelief, as if they had heard a huge joke.
Xuan Zi shook his head and said, "I don't believe you. Show us your cultivation level."
Cao Yu chuckled softly, "Then Xuan Zi, you'd better watch closely."
The welcome had barely faded when a level 100 Soul Power pressure surged from Cao Yu's body, shocking all the elders.
With a "thud," the chicken leg in Xuan Zi's hand fell from mid-air and landed on the ground.
Then, out of nowhere, a yellow dog appeared, panting and wagging its tail, and started eating the rest of the chicken leg right there.
The sound of bones being crushed was "crunch, crunch," and the tail wagged more and more enthusiastically.
Inside the imperial city, the commander of the surrendered Sun Moon Empire division and Kong Deming, Level 10 Soul Engineer, also rushed to the outside of the imperial city.
Someone has become immortal?
A moment later, Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger Duke and his soldiers came out to greet him. Upon seeing Cao Yu, they shouted with joy:
" Young Master Cao, you've actually become immortal!"
Several division commanders and generals simultaneously offered their congratulations. "Congratulations to Chancellor Cao on his ascension to godhood!"
Meanwhile, Kong Deming and his group, watching from a distance, observed this scene with complex expressions.
"I never imagined that the Star Luo Empire would produce such a prodigy. Why wasn't he born in our Sun Moon Empire?"
"It seems there's absolutely no way to resist now." Kong Deming couldn't help but sigh, and finally waved his hand, signaling his people to leave.
A former Level 9 Soul Engineer from the Sun Moon Empire couldn't help but ask, " Elder Kong, what should we do next?"
"Yes, yes." The people next to them nodded in agreement. After all, a large portion of the people here were high-ranking Soul Engineer from the Mingde Hall and the Royal Consecrated Soul Engineering Hall, and their future was still uncertain.
Kong Deming gave a wry smile and said, "You don't need to worry about this problem. After all, Chancellor Cao likes talented people like you. You'll naturally find a good place to work."
"That's good, that's good." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. After all, for them, being able to survive and make their own way in the afterlife was the best plan. If they could continue to develop even better, that would be something they couldn't ask for.
On the other side, Cao Yu first asked White Tiger Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger, "How is the matter in Sunrise City going? What are my brother-in-law's instructions?"
Dai Hao replied, " Young Master Cao, the Sunrise City and other cities has been completed. Xu Tianran will be buried with state honors in a few days."
He paused for a moment, as if suddenly remembering something, and then continued, "By the way Young Master Cao, Xu Tianran asked me to pass on a message to you before he passed away. He asked you to take good care of his younger sister, Xu Tianzhen. I have already sent people to protect Xu Tianzhen in advance."
Cao Yu murmured, " Xu Tianzhen..."
"His Majesty has decreed that the Celebration Ceremony will be held in Star Luo City ten days from now. His Majesty requests that you arrive on time."
"Okay, I understand. You guys go ahead and get busy."
"Yes Young Master Cao."
White Tiger Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger clan led everyone back slowly. At this moment, Xuan Zi and the others couldn't wait to ask:
"What's wrong with you, kid? What kind of potent drug did you take? Your cultivation level has increased so quickly all of a sudden."
Cao Yu said, half-laughing and half-crying, "Haha! You could call it taking drugs, but the ending is the most important thing."
Xuan Zi asked, "By the way, what deity did you inherit?"
Cao Yu shook his head, and all the elders looked bewildered. "What does this mean?"
" Xuan Zi, you can think of this as Self-Created Godhood, except mine is Godhood through National Fortune. Also, let me tell you, once my godhood is finalized, I can bestow hundreds more godhoods upon me."
Cao Yu transmitted his voice to the elders, and their faces immediately showed great surprise. Their eyes became bright and piercing, and their breathing became slightly rapid.
"My God! Is this for real?" The old men all looked incredulous.
"Why would I lie to you? It's just that it will take a few more years for this divine status to be finalized, and I certainly won't forget you elders when that time comes."
Becoming a god! They never expected to see the dawn of godhood in their lifetime. After all, the elders knew how difficult the path to godhood was. Even someone as powerful as Mu En was still unable to Self-Created Godhood.
Unexpectedly, Cao Yu brought them a tremendous surprise, and the faces of the old men began to glow, as if they had been given a second spring.
Moreover, the more I look at Cao Yu, the more pleasing he becomes.
This made Cao Yu somewhat embarrassed. After all, being stared at by several grown men was a bit uncomfortable, and he even got goosebumps on his hands.
Of course, only Elder Lin an old woman, but Cao Yu didn't like old women.
