Among the eighteen states of the Shenhuo Empire, Qingzhou's strength level is on the lower side. In the past twenty years, an imperial banquet has been held every year. Combined with the rankings of heaven and earth, Qingzhou has only won the first place three times in total.

Two of them are Tianbang and one is Earthly.

The saddest thing is that the top two rankings in the two rankings were obtained with the help of outsiders, not native Qingzhou people.

These three people won the first place. The King of Qingzhou did not mention Concubine Yun to them because she knew that human nature is selfish. The two outsiders did not talk about it, but only talked about the one who ranked first.

That person was cultivated by the King of Qingzhou. After winning the ranking, you can make a request to the Emperor, and he will definitely consider you first.

Freeing Concubine Yun would do him no good at all.

The King of Qingzhou did not make things difficult for him.

"I won't tell you how difficult it is to win the ranking. In fact, the most difficult level lies in the human heart. If you hadn't been willing to die for the Seventh Princess just now, I wouldn't have told you this."

The King of Qingzhou looked at Lu Yun with beautiful eyes and said seriously.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand. The most important thing for a cultivator to go against the will of heaven is to plunder resources and luck. To win the first place in the emperor's banquet, he can make any demands within the principles to the emperor, which is probably nothing more than fame, wealth, resources, etc.

If Lu Yun had selfish motives, he would definitely give priority to making such requests. It is absolutely unrealistic to expect him to rescue Concubine Yun.

But through the test just now, King Qingzhou can see that his feelings for Luo Li are to the point where he is willing to die for him, so there is a high probability that he is also willing to put aside his selfishness and save Luo Li's biological mother.

Lu Yun was silent.

Although he had long seen the Qingzhou King's temptation and deliberately performed a show of life and death, but if the time came, even if he was unable to fight back, he would still stand in front of Luo Li.

Not to mention saving Luo Li's mother.

Besides.

Lu Yun's own body is a huge treasure house. The power hidden in himself has not been fully explored yet, so why would he care about the little cultivation resources of the Shenhuo Empire.

Lu Yun said solemnly: "Concubine Yun is my mother-in-law, there is no reason not to save her."

The King of Qingzhou nodded slightly: "Sure enough, I saw you right. You will come with me to the Imperial City in a few days. If you really have the ability to save Sister Yun, I will send someone to meet you a thousand meters away from the east city in advance."

Lu Yun smiled and said, "Are you afraid that Queen Qin will regret it?"

The King of Qingzhou expressed solemnly: "On the day of the emperor's banquet, the other three empires gathered in the imperial city. No one will dare to touch you in the city, otherwise it will be a slap in the face. But outside the imperial city, it is difficult to predict. For the sake of caution

, how about you go to the emperor's banquet as Xu Que this time?"

Lu Yun responded: "It's a small matter."

Luo Li asked: "What about me? I also want to accompany little Lu Yun to attend the emperor's banquet and see my mother as soon as possible."

The King of Qingzhou shook his head: "No, in my opinion, it is best for the Seventh Princess to stay in Qingzhou Mansion and wait for news from us. By the way, I have a gift for you."

The King of Qingzhou took out a necklace and hung it on the neck of Luo Li's snow-white swan. The blue light and fair skin complemented each other, making it very beautiful.

"You have awakened the Divine Fire Seal, and the royal blood in your body can be easily detected by others. This necklace has a shielding effect, so please wear it."

Lu Yun saw that the necklace was similar to his Thousand Illusion Ice Soul Bead, but it didn't have as many functions as the Thousand Illusion Ice Soul Bead.

By the way, Qianhuan Ice Soul Pearl...
