Chapter 535
The two men were dumbfounded like wooden chickens.
If Wu Tian had abdicated, then who should they deliver the imperial edict in their hands to?
After all.
The person they were dealing with was Wu Tian!
In the Cloud Top Empire.
Destroyer of the World and the Cloud Top King sat cross-legged beside the Fortune Immortal Pillar.
Subsequently, both of them opened their eyes at the same time.
"If I guess correctly, those two should have arrived at the Wu Tian Empire by now?" Destroyer of the World said lightly.
"Yes."
"If nothing unexpected happens, I'm afraid the imperial edicts are already in that Wu Tian's hands now." The Cloud Top King said: "I estimate a message will come from that side soon."
Just as his voice fell.
The jade tablet had already lit up.
Seeing this, the Cloud Top King's eyes lit up, slightly excited.
"Look, I knew it, just as I was saying it, a message has arrived."
Hearing this.
Destroyer of the World was also slightly delighted.
However.
Just when the two were delighted, the message from the jade tablet also made the two dumbfounded like wooden chickens.
Wu Tian had abdicated.
The two were choked by this news that they coughed up blood.
"What's going on, what exactly is going on?"
The Cloud Top King's face darkened as he shouted: "This Wu Tian Empire was originally a chaotic little empire that had just made a name for itself, so Wu Tian had not been on the throne for long. How did he suddenly abdicate?"
Destroyer of the World beside him was also puzzled.
He had just conquered his empire, why would he give it up so easily?
That's like being crazy.
"Humph."
"So what if he abdicated, he is still a person from the Wu Tian Empire, and is under my Cloud Top Empire's jurisdiction. Send me the imperial edict without delay."
Soon, the Cloud Top King accepted the fact and had an idea to directly make a decision and issued an order to the two.
"But Your Majesty, if Wu Tian was still the ruler, we could control him with the Affiliated Mark, but now that he is no longer the ruler, the mark will disappear automatically. If he does not obey the imperial edict, we have no power over him!" One of them said worriedly.
"Humph, so what if the Affiliated Mark is gone, do you really think my Cloud Top Empire has no way to deal with a petty ruler without the mark?"
The Cloud Top King coldly snorted: "You just listen to my orders, give him the imperial edict first, if he does not come, tell him directly that defying the imperial edict is punishable by death, even if he runs to the corners of the world, my Cloud Top Empire can still easily take his life."
"Yes!"
Hearing this.
The two who were sent to the Wu Tian Empire were also emboldened.
Think about it, compared to the Cloud Top Empire, what can this tiny Wu Tian Empire count as?
This Wu Tian.
How dare he not obey after receiving the imperial edict?
The two, as envoys sent from above, arrogantly entered the imperial palace of the Wu Tian Empire.
Inside the grand hall of the imperial palace.
Although Wu Tian had already abdicated, he was still presiding over the court at the head for the time being.
Seeing the arrival of the two envoys, Wu Tian frowned slightly.
He had always disliked this Cloud Top Empire.
Usually when they, these subordinate empires, were fighting chaotically, the ones above didn't even look at you, completely ignoring whether you lived or died.
And when you accumulated some strength, they demanded you to offer massive amounts of resources.
"So you are Wu Tian?"
The two stood in the grand hall, looking up at Wu Tian, speaking with majestic voices.
"It's me!"
Wu Tian nodded.
"We two are here under the order of the Cloud Top King to deliver the imperial edict to you."
"In recognition of Wu Tian's wisdom and courage, unifying the Wu Tian Empire with merit, we hereby order Wu Tian to come to court on an appointed day to meet His Majesty."
The content of the imperial edict was very short and concise.
After reading it, the person who had read the edict raised his head and said, "That was the content of the imperial edict, and there is also a verbal decree from the Cloud Top King."
"Speak."
Wu Tian said.
"The Cloud Top King's meaning is that he admires you very much. The reason for summoning you to meet His Majesty is because the Cloud Top King wants to confer on you the title of king of the Cloud Top Empire." The man said.
"King?"
Wu Tian's pupils shrank.
"That's right, the king title."
"Do you know the importance of this king title?"
"Since the founding of the Cloud Top Empire, only two people have been conferred king, and these two people are the most powerful rulers of the subordinate empires."
"Originally, no matter what, it would not be the turn of your Wu Tian Empire, but as the imperial edict stated, it is because His Majesty admires you."
"So, shouldn't you quickly kneel down and thank His Majesty for his grace?"
But.
Wu Tian shook his head instead.
Because he smelled something unusual.
What was the purpose of conferring kings in the past?
It was nothing more than to better control the subordinate empires. That's why the prerequisite for conferring a king was to be a ruler.
And if one was not a ruler, there would be no value for the Cloud Top Empire to confer a king title.
But now he was breaking this rule because of him.
What was the reason?
Anyway, he didn't believe that everything he had accomplished in the Wu Tian Empire could really earn the admiration of the Cloud Top King.
There must be some agenda within this.
After all, there are no free lunches in this world.
This Cloud Top King was probably plotting something!
Furthermore, he, Wu Tian, was not at all happy to be this king.
He had already resigned from his position as the Wu Tian King, so why would he go there to be a useless king without any power? No f*cking way.
If Master knew he was so narrow-minded, he would probably be very disappointed.
So Wu Tian took a step forward lightly and said, "I have no interest in being a ruler or king, so I appreciate the Cloud Top King's kindness, please go back!"
Hearing this.
The eyebrows of the two envoys immediately frowned.
Their faces visibly turned gloomy.
"Wu Tian, do you know what you are saying?"
The two spoke heavily, coldly saying: "Your words are clearly defying the imperial edict!"
Wu Tian remained silent.
He just looked at them lightly, his meaning was already very clear.
This made the two furious.
"Do you know the consequences of this?"
"Daring to defy the Cloud Top King's will is punishable by complete annihilation."
"Not only you, even your entire Wu Tian Empire will suffer devastating blows."
"Have you thought it through, can you bear the consequences?"
The icy voices of the two rang out, the threat was not concealed at all.
This made Wu Tian frown tightly.
He, Wu Tian, feared nothing.
But when he knew it would implicate the entire Wu Tian Empire, he couldn't help but have concerns.
What should he do?
Wu Tian didn't know what to do for a moment.
After thinking it over, he could only ask Master for advice again.
He secretly took out the sound transmission jade tablet and sent a message to Yi Feng.
"Damn dog!"
"So it was you who stole those four gold coins."
"I'll tear you apart."
In Yuan Jing's residence, Yi Feng was dismantling Skull Wei Wei when he received Wu Tian's message.
Yi Feng casually took out the jade tablet.
This jade tablet was actually similar to a cell phone in his previous life, and was quite an ordinary item in this world that even ordinary rich people could afford.
Come to think of it, this jade tablet of his seemed to have been gifted by someone else.
He had forgotten who gave it to him specifically.
"Little chick, what's up." Yi Feng picked up the jade tablet and lazily asked.
"Master, I have some crucial choices that I still need to ask your advice on." Wu Tian said respectfully.
"Oh, didn't I tell you about these things before?"
"Perspective!"
"Perspective!"
"Perspective!"
"In short, don't be afraid when dealing with things, just forge ahead bravely!"
"Alright, I'm busy right now, won't keep talking to you, hanging up."
After finishing speaking, Yi Feng directly hung up the Jade Tablet, rolled up his sleeves and continued dismantling Skull Benwei.
Looking at the severed Jade Tablet, Wu Tian stood in place, with Master's words echoing in his mind for a long time.
"When dealing with things, don't be afraid, just forge ahead bravely..."
"Master's words seem to imply something!"
Wu Tian squinted his eyes, seeming to gain some insight into these words.
"Also perspective."
"Master repeatedly emphasized perspective to me..."
"So what is an even bigger perspective than the Cloud Top King?"
Muttering to himself, Wu Tian's eyes suddenly widened.
He gained insight once again in his heart.
Hiss!
He sucked in a breath of cold air through his teeth.
So this was Master's expectation of him - it was so high!
