Chapter 211 Royal Shock

Zhou Shiren nodded, and immediately said to a guard beside him, "Let Cao Xiong come in!"

The guard turned around and quickly shouted in the direction of the palace gate: "Your Majesty has an order to announce the audience of Mr. Cao Xiong Cao!"

"Xuan Caoxiong!"

"Xuan Caoxiong!"

In just a few breaths, Zhou Shiren's order was conveyed to the outside of the palace layer by layer.

After giving the order, Zhou Shiren dismissed the rest of the ministers, walked into the hall with the ancestor Zhou Ting and others, and waited quietly in the hall.

After a while, Cao Xiong, who was full of travel and dust, entered the palace and appeared outside the main hall.

"Chen Cao Xiong, I greet Your Majesty." As soon as Cao Xiong entered the palace, he was taken aback by the devastated scene in the palace. He respectfully saluted Zhou Shiren.

This ceremony is more like bowing than kowtowing. After all, with his cultivation, he has long been exempted from kneeling and worshiping etiquette. Even if he dared to kneel, Zhou Shiren might not dare to accept it frankly.

Seeing Cao Xiong's respectful attitude, a smile appeared on Zhou Ting's face, very satisfied.

Cao Xiong was promoted before he abdicated. At that time, Cao Xiong was still a young man with a low level of cultivation, but his talent was extremely good. Zhou Ting also saw that he was very loyal to the royal family and treated him well. He took great care of him and cultivated him vigorously. Now Cao Xiong's cultivation has reached the upper level of alchemy, and he is one of the best in the entire Zhou Dynasty, but he still maintains loyalty to the royal family. Zhou Ting is very satisfied with this.

This proves that his foresight is correct, it is an extremely wise decision to cultivate Cao Xiong.

"The governor is exempt from courtesy." Zhou Shiren said very politely: "The governor, please look up."

Hearing this, Cao Xiong raised his head suspiciously, and for a moment, the figures of Zhou Ting, Zhou Tianlong and others came into his sight.

Seeing Zhou Ting and the others, Cao Xiong was dumbfounded: "Senior Zhou Ting, the Supreme Emperor..."

His eyes finally fell on Zhou Ting, his eyes were full of shock and excitement.

"Unexpectedly, after so many years, you still remember me as a bad old man." Zhou Ting said with a smile: "Time is not forgiving! The Xiao Cao back then is actually old now."

He still remembered Cao Xiong's high-spirited appearance when he abdicated, but now, when we met again, Cao Xiong was already old, with silvery white hair hanging from his ears, and his seemingly rosy face was covered with shallow wrinkles.

Looking at the smiling Zhou Ting, Cao Xiong seemed to have returned to his youth, and his heart became excited.

He was so excited that he couldn't speak, and there was a smirk on his face.

In front of Zhou Ting, he seemed to be a child forever.

"Okay, time is running out, we don't allow us to catch up on the old days." Zhou Ting put away his smile and turned serious, "Xiao Cao, I heard from Shiren that he sent you to Tongzhou Mansion to investigate the situation of Sky Academy a while ago. So, is there any result now?"

In the entire Zhou Dynasty, only Zhou Ting dared to call Cao Xiong Xiaocao, and it would not make Cao Xiong feel dissatisfied in the slightest.

When it came to business, Zhou Tianlong, Zhou Shiren and the others also turned serious, and looked at Cao Xiong one after another, appearing a little nervous.

Cao Xiong, on the other hand, worked hard to calm down his excitement, silently sorted out his thoughts, thinking about how to explain.

At this time, Zhou Shiren said: "The governor doesn't know something. Just now, our Zhou Dynasty came to a powerful enemy. The man's name is Yan Qiu. He is the elder of the Wild North of the Hundred Academy Alliance. He is in charge of all the colleges in the Zhou Dynasty and other countries. As for the matter, the reason why our Zhou Dynasty did not have a four-star academy for hundreds of years is that Yan Qiu was behind it. This time, he heard about the matter of the Sky Academy, and it seems that he is going to be bad for the Sky Academy."

He looked at Cao Xiong, and said solemnly: "I hope the governor will truthfully inform us about the situation of the Sky Academy, so that we can prepare countermeasures as soon as possible to prevent any accidents in the Sky Academy."

Hearing this, Cao Xiong's expression became a little weird, he hesitated, glanced at Zhou Shiren, and then at Zhou Ting.

Zhou Ting nodded, and said lightly: "That's right, Yan Qiu is a strong man in the mid-spirit circle. I just fought against him, and I can't help him at all. With his strength, if he really intends to harm the Sky Academy, the consequences will be serious." Unbelievable."

"Senior Zhou Ting, the Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty..." Cao Xiong finally said, "Excuse me for talking too much, this time, I'm afraid you are too worried."

There was a smile on his face, and he didn't look worried at all.

If he had never been to the Sky Academy, he would have panicked when he suddenly heard that Zhou Chao had come to an enemy from the mid-spirit realm. The coming of the powerful Li Xuanjing might not be able to scare him.

Zhou Shiren frowned: "Governor, did you not hear clearly what the ancestor said just now, that Yan Qiu is a strong person in the Spiritual Spin Middle Realm!"

Even Zhou Ting, the number one powerhouse in the Zhou Dynasty and a legendary figure, can't help him in the slightest.

"No, I heard you very clearly." Cao Xiong was still very indifferent, his face full of confidence, "That person is the Elder of the Wild North of the Hundred Academy Alliance, a strong person in the middle of the spirit circle, and he intends to harm the Sky Academy, Zhou Ting That's what Senior and Your Majesty mean, right?"

Although he didn't say the whole thing, he roughly expressed the meaning.

Zhou Shiren was a little puzzled: "Since you heard clearly, why..."

Zhou Ting was also a little surprised and didn't quite understand what Cao Xiong meant.

"Senior, Your Majesty, the reason why you are worried about Sky Academy is because you don't know the situation of Sky Academy. When you know, you will be the same as me." Cao Xiong shook his head with a smile. ? To be honest, if he doesn’t go to trouble with the Sky Academy, he’ll just let it go. If he really dares to do this, the result will undoubtedly be very miserable..."

Zhou Ting and the others looked at each other in surprise.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Ting said solemnly: "Xiao Cao, I believe you. Since you said that, there must be a reason. Now, please tell us the results of the investigation."

He is not in a hurry now, perhaps, the Sky Academy really does not need him to care.

"Yes, senior." Cao Xiong said respectfully.

Taking a deep breath, Cao Xiong raised his head, and said without haste: "After receiving His Majesty's order, I rushed to the deserted city immediately. On the day I arrived in the deserted city, I originally planned to find a tavern for dinner. Let's eat, take a break, but unexpectedly, before I entered the tavern, I encountered a group of people talking about something, and when I approached the door to listen, I realized that they were talking about a person, and they even called that person a saint division."

Zhou Ting and the others frowned, the title of Saint Master is not light.

"I thought it was inappropriate, so I immediately said, 'Holy Master? Not everyone can afford this title'." Cao Xiong couldn't help laughing bitterly when he said this, "Unexpectedly, what I said was actually It's like stabbing a hornet's nest, causing disaster!"

Recalling the scene of that night, Cao Xiong still has lingering fears, and his heart is full of fear.

Shaking his head, Cao Xiong continued: "I asked them who the holy master they were talking about was. But no one answered my question. On the contrary, everyone asked me to apologize, and the matter became more and more troublesome. It is even suspected that at that time, practitioners from the entire deserted city and even the Tongzhou Prefecture all gathered together, yelling at the ministers and killing them, with an extremely tough attitude, demanding an immediate apology from the ministers, including a few experts in the Danxuan realm."

Zhou Ting and others listened quietly, no one interrupted.

They can fully imagine Cao Xiong's situation at that time, and they can fully understand Cao Xiong's mood at that time.

So, don't talk nonsense, if you say something wrong, you may die!

"Just when I was about to apologize, a mysterious strong man suddenly appeared." Cao Xiong's face twitched. For him, that memory was a big stain in his life, and it was also an unbearable memory, " That person is the only mentor of Sky Academy, the mentor Ou mentioned by Zhou Linxin!"

"Teacher Ou?" Zhou Shiren was stunned, then nodded immediately: "Yes, Zhou Lin mentioned in the letter that this person is a soul body, and his strength is not weak. He is suspected to be a strong person in the upper realm of alchemy."

Zhou Ting, Zhou Tianlong and the others also heard Zhou Shiren talk about Mentor Ou, and they had a deep impression of this rather peculiar strong man.

"Danxuan Shangjing?" Cao Xiong suddenly became a little indignant, and dissatisfied: "What kind of eyesight is Zhou Lin? That Instructor Ou is obviously a strong man in the Lingxuan realm!"

This time, it was Zhou Ting and others' turn to be surprised. They looked at Cao Xiong in shock: "Mr. Ou is a strong person in the Spiritual Spinning Realm?"

You must know that those who are strong in the spiritual spinning state are real masters. Looking at the entire wilderness continent, they are not considered weak. It is too difficult for ordinary people to cultivate to the spiritual spinning state. It is impossible to reach this realm. For hundreds of years since the Zhou Dynasty, only Zhou Ting, a strong man in the spiritual realm, has been able to peep a little bit.

"Unexpectedly, Teacher Ou turned out to be a strong person in the Spiritual Spinning Realm." Zhou Shiren exclaimed: "In this way, isn't the dean of the Sky Academy stronger?"

Even those who are strong in the Spiritual Spinning Realm can subdue them. There is no doubt that the dean of the Sky Academy definitely possesses even more tyrannical strength.

Thinking of this possibility, Zhou Ting, Zhou Shiren and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the dean has terrifying strength, they don't need to worry about the Sky Academy anymore. As Cao Xiong said, it's fine if Yan Qiu doesn't bother the Sky Academy. If Yan Qiu really does this, The results will undoubtedly be dire. Not to mention the mysterious dean, just Teacher Ou is enough to make Yan Qiu drink a pot. After all, the attack method of the soul body is too weird, and it is hard to guard against. , but may not be able to beat Teacher Ou.

What's more, even if Ou Shenfeng lost, wouldn't there be a more terrifying dean?

"Haha, I really hope that Yan Qiu will hurry up and find trouble with the Sky Academy." Zhou Tianlong laughed sinisterly.

Zhou Ting didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and immediately shifted his gaze to Cao Xiong, and said with a smile: "Xiao Cao, continue talking."

At this time, Zhou Ting and the others had completely relaxed and were not in a hurry.

Zhou Shiren also nodded and said: "Yes, the governor, didn't I order you to inquire about the news of the Sky Academy? Why did you come back so soon? Even if the investigation finds any results, just write a letter and ask the dark clothes guard to send it immediately. But, why do you need to come back in person?"

"I tell your Majesty, the reason why I came back this time is because I have made a huge discovery, and I must report it to Your Majesty in person." Cao Xiong's expression became serious, as if he had discovered some big secret, so that his voice was trembling. It was because of excessive excitement that he seemed a little trembling, "This matter is too important! I am afraid that if it is leaked out, it will cause chaos in the world!"

"The world? Which world?"

"The entire Wilderness Continent!" Cao Xiong said without hesitation: "I swear, if this matter is leaked, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire Wilderness Continent!"

As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly fell into a dead silence.

Everyone looked at Cao Xiong in shock and fell silent.
