Chapter 582: You idiots (2)
Jiang chunshan is definitely in the middle stage of the earth realm.
Luo Daimei is even stronger than him. She’s at least at the peak of the middle Earth realm or the late earth realm. ” Tang Wen said.
“I …” Chu luoxiang’s lips trembled, and her face turned purple. She looked as if she had lost her will to live. After a long while, she said,”no wonder … No wonder.”
“No wonder what?” Chu Cong asked, puzzled.
“Someone suggested to make her father a Duke.” Chu luoxiang’s face was ashen.
“Conferred the title of Duke? Didn’t the ancestor of the Chu clan set the rule that only eight males could be allowed? If she wanted to make her father a state Duke, wouldn’t she have to squeeze out one of them?” Chu Cong asked hurriedly.
He was afraid that his father would be squeezed out.
“Chu Cong, your father is in danger.” Chu luoxiang sighed.
“What’s Luo Pingdong’s realm? Could he be stronger than my father?” Chu Cong asked, unconvinced.
“Of course he’s stronger than your father. Luo Pingdong is at least in the mortal realm.” Chu luoxiang said.
“Human realm …” Chu Cong’s expression changed and his lips started to tremble.
“I’m telling you, Chu Guang is the weakest out of the eight high Dukes.
In the past, it was said that the eight high Dukes were only in the spiritual perception realm, and two or three of them were in the human realm, but that was not the case.
The day before yesterday, father was drunk and left me to chat. Her father had said,”Luo Xiang, you can’t sink any further. If you continue to sink, the Chu clan’s territory will be in danger.”
I said at the time that the old ancestor was still guarding the palace, what was there to be afraid of?
However, his father shook his head and said that there was no one to succeed him. The Chu clan’s territory had to be passed down from generation to generation, and there had to be a successor.
The old ancestor would pass one day. At that time, who would support the Chu clan?
Later on, his father talked about the high Dukes. He said that among the eight high Dukes, some of them had already entered the heaven realm.
Moreover, in the past few years, the old ancestor had stagnated for some reason. If this trend continued, it would be difficult for the few high Dukes to suppress him, let alone the princes.
At that time, I discussed the matter of spirit stones with father.
When he heard that teacher could transport spirit stones back from the West, he was immediately excited.
Moreover, I’ve also said that you’re a young talent and a good teacher to cultivate experts.
Father said happily that he wanted to find an opportunity to call you into the palace. ” Chu luoxiang said.
“Doesn’t the Chu family still have Chu Xilong? How can you say that there’s no one to succeed you?” Tang Wen asked in confusion.
“Chu Xilong is indeed a member of the Chu family, but he is not a Prince.” Chu luoxiang said.
“In fact, the Emperor has always been on guard against Chu Xilong’s family. That was because Chu Xilong’s father was Chu Zhaojun, the king of the an Kingdom, and he held a high position and power.
With such a genius son, it was certain that he would step into the heaven realm in the future.
It was even possible that he would become a profound realm expert many years later.
At that time, if the king of the an Kingdom were to cause trouble, it would be difficult to deal with him.
Therefore, the more talented Chu Xilong was, the more pressure he would bring to the Emperor.
If the seventh Prince can rise up, the Emperor will naturally be the happiest. ” Chu Cong said.
“The imperial family’s matters are indeed troublesome. They want to use you but also have to prevent you from becoming too big. After all, everyone wants to sit on the emperor’s throne, even blood Brothers have to guard against it. ” Tang Wen replied.
“That’s right! This is the reason why I’m not interested in the throne.
Although the Emperor is glorious on the surface, in reality, he needs to balance the relationships between all parties. Just as you said, teacher, we must use strong people, but we also have to guard against strong people.
Otherwise, you see, there have been rebellions in the past dynasties. And the rebels were often the strong.
However, the Imperial court needed experts. A genius like Chu Xilong would definitely be placed in an important position, but they would also need to check and balance him.
Otherwise, he’ll become a threat to the imperial family once he becomes powerful. ” Chu luoxiang said helplessly.
“I’m afraid this is also the reason why the Emperor has been supporting Luo Daimei. ” Tang Wen said with a smile.
“Of course, part of the reason is that if the Luo family can be stubborn, it can be the law to keep the powerful in check.
Luo Daimei alone could suppress Chu Xilong, let alone check and balance anyone. Luo Pingdong’s strength was not inferior to Chu Zhaojun, the king of the an Kingdom.
Of course, the Luo family has only just risen to power, and there is still a huge gap between their strength and Chu Zhaojun ‘s. ” Chu luoxiang said.
“That’s why the Emperor wants the Luo family to be stubborn faster. Therefore, he wanted to give him the title of a High Duke.
“If the Emperor has such an idea, my Junior Brother Chu Guang will be the first to bear the brunt. It seems that Chu Guang will have to show some support in martial arts.
Otherwise, he would not even be able to keep his position as a Duke. That’s right, I’ve met another of the eight Dukes. He’s Duke Cao.
I feel that this person’s strength isn’t weak. He’s at least at the earth realm. ” Tang Wen nodded.
“Duke Cao has never been weak. Among the eight Dukes, the one ranked second in martial arts besides Chu Guang should be Duke of Ping Dong, Zhang dejun. This person is probably in the human realm.
But even if he was in the human realm, the gap between Chu Guang and him was too big. He could not catch up at all.
“I’ve already vaguely reminded Chu Guang about this, but he’s not strong enough. What can he do …” Chu luoxiang shook her head and sighed.
“Father has already done his best. Ever since the war along the coast ended, he has been in closed-door cultivation.
Although his teacher had given him a lot of spirit pills and spirit stones, and even set up a small spirit gathering array, he was still very confident.
However, the time was too short, and my father was a little older. He had just broken through to the great circle of spirit focus a few days ago, but he failed to break through to the divine sense realm.
In fact, my father has already heard some news about the matter of reinstating a state Duke.
So, even though he was disappointed, he was prepared to have his rank cut.
