Chapter 0997: Secret of the Royal family
Wu Yu didn’t need her to explain in detail. Perhaps at the beginning, some had not shown up to pay their tributes, but as she had said, these people had paid the price.
Now no one would dare to skip this.
Every decade, the Yan Huang Ancient Country would ask for all the strong powers in the Jambu Realm to come forth and present their treasures. This was similar to paying protection fees.
It was said that the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor had maintained his current cultivation level for more than 1,000 years. During these 1,000 years, various powers had paid tribute 100 times. Hence, this was basically considered an ordinary mission now.
From the Nan Yun Region Lord's relaxed tone, the 10,000 Kingdoms Pilgrimage would proceed smoothly. At that time, all the powers would come forth and pay their respects. They would also give treasures that would at least need to reflect their statuses. If not, as the Nan Yun Region Lord had said, they would have to pay a price.
It seemed like the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor was not as Wu Yu had imagined him to be - an existence surpassing mortal and materialistic desires. His dominance was expressed in such a way.
"F**k, that's awesome, he's practically.…" The Full Moon of Nanshan wanted to say “big bully,” but thinking about the respect the Yan Huang Tribe had for the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor, he resisted saying that.
However, the Nan Yun Region Lord knew what his exaggerated tone meant. She lowered her voice and said, "Don't misunderstand the Ancient Emperor. It is only reasonable that the Ancient Emperor receives all these tributes. Actually, our Yan Huang Tribe is not much stronger than the others anymore. But we can be the leaders because of the Ancient Emperor. With the Ancient Emperor around, our Yan Huang Tribe will always be the overlords. Actually, it is not a problem for the Ancient Emperor to destroy all the martial cultivation kingdoms and let our Yan Huang Tribe control the whole Yan Huang Ancient Region, or even the Jambu Realm. However, he will not do that. Just based on this, people from other countries should be grateful that they have not been annihilated and can still exist.
"Secondly, with the Ancient Emperor in power, many martial cultivation kingdoms dare not to realize their ambition of widening their territories and bullying smaller, weaker martial cultivation kingdoms. This is the reason why there are few wars in the Yan Huang Ancient Region. Considering this, the tributes that they pay during each 10,000 Kingdoms Pilgrimage is not a lot. In summary, it is all due to the Ancient Emperor that a relatively peaceful era can be maintained in the Jambu Realm, that everyone can have the opportunity to cultivate and no one is enslaved. Without the Ancient Emperor, the Jambu Realm would be in chaos. So they really should sincerely pay up their tributes."
The Nan Yun Region Lord had her reasons for saying that. The Yan Huang Ancient Emperor was very strong and the others were grateful to him for not killing them. The second point on the effect of his dominance was true too. As for the third point, it was the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor who had solved the problem of the Ancient Demon God in the Infernal Inferno before.
"When you say that, it seems true. As citizens of the Yan Huang Ancient Country, we are really lucky to be ranked above others. Haha…." The Full Moon of Nanshan could not resist laughing. Actually, while he laughed, he knew about Wu Yu's situation. They were now tied to Wu Yu. Wu Yu's danger was his danger. So he was actually quite depressed. Because what they had discussed, this terrifying existence might be their enemy.
He rolled his eyes at Wu Yu and secretly muttered, "Forget about meeting such a crazy existence. We should just pack up and hide in the Ancient Demon Realm."
Of course, Wu Yu would not be scared by this. Besides, his home land was the Dong Sheng Divine Continent. His family and teacher were there. It would be difficult for him to go to another world, especially when the Ancient Demon Realm was so terrifying. If Wu You and the others went there, they would have a harder time surviving.
Actually, to Ye Xixi, the stronger the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor was, the more the hatred and fury burned in her heart. The hatred she had for killing her parents could not be wiped from her heart. She was an open book. At this moment, her eyes were bloodshot and her expression was dark and sinister. At this moment, she muttered, "The Yan Huang Tribe without the Ancient Emperor is no stronger than the other tribes, especially when there are many sea region demons. If one day the Ancient Emperor leaves and disappears from here, wouldn't you all be afraid…."
She was actually muttering this out of anger. Naturally, she wanted to curse the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor to die.
But the Nan Yun Region Lord did not hear that underlying tone. She laughed as though she had heard a naïve question and said, "This is something you don't know. I heard that the Ancient Emperor has already achieved immortalhood and is now an undying existence. He won't leave easily. Even if he passes the Yan Huang throne to the princes, he will still protect Yan Huang. If he leaves to go to the Sky Palaces, it will only be after Yan Huang has produced a new existence comparable to the Ancient Emperor. For countless years, in every generation, an immortal who will protect the whole Jambu Realm is born in the royal family of our Yan Huang Tribe. This has never stopped before. The previous emperor also left for the Sky Palaces only after the Ancient Emperor came to power."
Hearing this, Ming Long said, "In my era, there was also a terrifying existence in the Yan Huang Tribe. Of course, in my time, he seemed to live through legends and basically never appeared. He was shyer than the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor. It is no wonder the Yan Huang Tribe has been able to maintain their glory to this day and still occupies such a good amount of territory. So it is because the royal family births such a crazy existence in each generation."
She was not sure about this before. In her era, the guardian of the Yan Huang Tribe was always behind closed doors, secreted away. No one saw him, not to mention hosting events like the 10,000 Kingdoms Pilgrimage.
Wu Yu also did not doubt that the Yan Huang Ancient Emperor had already gained immortality. But could he go to the Sky Palaces? Legends said that after reaching immortalhood, one could go to the Sky Palaces, and it was said that they would be immediately summoned to ascend thus.
Wu Yu never knew that immortals could remain in the mortal world.
And he did not know that the Yan Huang royal family could produce an immortal every generation. At least from the princes and princesses that he knew, while they had the potential to become immortal, none of them were really outstanding. None of them seemed like they could definitely become immortal in future.
At this moment, the Nan Yun Region Lord was almost at the gate of South Emperor City. She suddenly stopped and looked at Wu Yu.
"What's the matter?" Wu Yu asked.
