Chapter 40: Chapter 011 Visiting the Worthy

While drinking fine wine, Yan Chuan stared intently at the Emperor of Yan, analyzing whether the Emperor of Yan was speaking sincerely or insincerely.

"Father, you are the Emperor of Yan. How can you...?" Yan Wudi said anxiously.

"The Emperor of Yan? No, Wudi. Originally, the State of Yan belonged to the Co-Prince. Yan Chuan is also the legitimate heir of the State of Yan!" The Emperor of Yan shook his head and said.

"But, but..." Yan Wudi was still somewhat reluctant.

"There is no 'but'. Among the royal family, except for you who are still a promising talent, your younger brothers and sisters are simply good-for-nothings. I originally wanted to pass the throne to you. However, you have already entered the immortal sect and have a better future. You must not miss this opportunity!" The Emperor of Yan said in a solemn tone.

"But, but..." Yan Wudi still frowned.

"If the State of Yan is handed over to your younger brothers, it will only be destroyed in an instant. No, even if I rule the State of Yan, the destruction of the country is only a matter of time. Only Yan Chuan, the Co-Prince, can carry the banner of the State of Yan!" The Emperor of Yan said solemnly.

"Oh?" Yan Chuan stared at the Emperor of Yan in confusion.

"Your Brocade Army should be more than enough to deal with the armies of various countries. As for the participation of immortal sects from other countries, you also have the Great River Sect behind you. Although your father has died, the Great River Sect cannot sit idly by and watch you be in danger. As long as you become the emperor, the Great River Sect will surely protect the State of Yan. As long as we 争取 for several decades, Crown Prince Yan Wudi will also grow up completely. Then, we can protect the State of Yan for thousands of generations!" The Emperor of Yan affirmed.

The Emperor of Yan seemed selfless, but he couldn't deceive Yan Chuan.

With a slight smile, Yan Chuan gently drank a cup of wine.

"Father, Uncle Wang could have originally entered the immortal sect and had a chance for longevity. How can he be trapped on the throne?" Yan Wudi frowned and worried.

"Wudi!" The Emperor of Yan glared.

"Father, I think it's unfair to Uncle Wang. Uncle Wang could have cultivated for longevity. If he becomes the emperor, at most he will be on the throne for several decades and then become old... At that time, it will be too late to cultivate. Moreover, after several decades, will the Great River Sect still care about Grandpa Yan Tao's favor?" Yan Wudi shook his head.

"Bastard! I am doing this for your own good and for the good of our Yan family!" The Emperor of Yan said angrily.

The Emperor of Yan originally wanted to use the righteousness of the Yan family's bloodline to bind Yan Chuan, but he didn't expect his son to undermine him.

"What you are doing is wrong!" Yan Wudi was also stubborn.

"Hahaha..." Yan Chuan suddenly burst out laughing, interrupting the argument between the father and son.

"Hmm?" The two frowned and looked at Yan Chuan.

"There is no need to argue anymore. Thank you for your kindness, nephew! I can take this throne!" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Really?" The Emperor of Yan's eyes lit up.

"Yes!" Yan Chuan nodded affirmatively.

But seeing Yan Chuan nod, for some reason, the Emperor of Yan suddenly felt a trace of reluctance and unwillingness in his heart.

"Then please accept the imperial seal. Tomorrow I will announce to all the ministers and choose an auspicious day for you to ascend the throne!" The Emperor of Yan looked at the imperial seal box reluctantly and said.

With a slight smile, Yan Chuan shook his head.

"Hmm? Why did you change your mind again?" The Emperor of Yan frowned.

"I originally wanted to establish a country and found a dynasty. My original plan may not necessarily be the State of Yan. After all, you and I are of the same bloodline. I didn't want to compete with you. However, since you are determined to abdicate the throne, I will accept it on this basis. Rest assured, as long as I am alive, I will protect our Yan family!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.

"Good! Good!" The Emperor of Yan smiled.

"But, not now!" Yan Chuan shook his head and said.

"Hmm?" The Emperor of Yan was slightly stunned.

"I have an opportunity for cultivating immortality and entering the Great River Sect. I want to ask you, do you want to enter the cultivation world?" Yan Chuan asked solemnly.

"Enter the cultivation world?"

The Emperor of Yan's eyes lit up, and then he showed a trace of bitterness and said, "Who doesn't want to cultivate for longevity and become an immortal? But my natural endowment is extremely poor. Your father also said that I have no opportunity to cultivate immortality. Which immortal sect will accept me?"

"If you want to, it's good. You give up the throne and I will help you cultivate. It can be considered a kind of compensation!" Yan Chuan thought for a while and said.

"You, help me?" The Emperor of Yan was slightly stunned.

"If your natural endowment is poor, then fill it with abundant resources. Others need one portion, but you can use ten portions. I will lead you into the cultivation world and help you reach the Qi Realm cultivation level. How about it?" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Ah? How is it possible?" The Emperor of Yan was immediately filled with joy.

"Why, you don't believe me?" Yan Chuan smiled.

"No, I believe you. It's just that there are some..."

"Hahaha, the three-colored divine ox on the drill ground is for you to keep and eat!" Yan Chuan smiled.

"For me?"

"For you. Cultivate well. After reaching the Qi Realm, it will be up to you!" Yan Chuan nodded.

"Once I reach the Qi Realm, I will naturally be able to stand firm in the cultivation world! I don't need your help anymore!" The Emperor of Yan was excited.

"Well, then you continue to handle the affairs of the State of Yan for me first!" Yan Chuan thought for a while and said.

"Why? You don't ascend the throne now?" The Emperor of Yan frowned.

"I still need to go to the Great River Sect to take a look. After handling some matters, I will come back and ascend the throne and become the emperor!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"But..." The Emperor of Yan frowned.

"Moreover, you also need a large amount of resources to reach the Qi Realm. I need to go and retrieve my father's things!" Yan Chuan shook his head.

"Well, fine!" The Emperor of Yan nodded. But he still had some concerns.

"Rest assured. I have detained the envoys of the four countries. I have handled this matter properly. Before going to the Great River Sect, I will handle everything properly. You can continue to be the Emperor of Yan with peace of mind!" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Good. I toast you!" The Emperor of Yan smiled.

"Yes!" Yan Chuan nodded.

On one side, Yan Wudi looked at Yan Chuan in confusion.

After the banquet.

Yan Chuan was sent off.

The Emperor of Yan and Yan Wudi stood at the door and watched Yan Chuan's distant back.

"Father? Do you really trust Uncle Wang?" Yan Wudi frowned and said.

The Emperor of Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I can't believe everything he says. However, there is an opportunity. How can I let it go? He is different from you. He has Yan Tao's inheritance in the Great River Sect. He has a large amount of resources for cultivating immortality. Since he has promised to help me enter the cultivation world, I must strive for it! Although power is good, one must have a life to enjoy it. Once I achieve longevity, what won't I have?" The Emperor of Yan said in a solemn tone.

"All right!" Yan Wudi nodded.

On the other side.

Yan Chuan walked in the palace with Liu Jin. While walking, Yan Chuan looked at the bright moonlight and showed a trace of satisfaction on his face.

"Prince, I have already ordered people to clean up the Co-Prince's Mansion!" Liu Jin said beside him.

"Hehe, why? I see that you have been holding back for a long time. Do you have something to say?" Yan Chuan smiled.

"This old slave just doesn't understand. Why did the prince agree to the Emperor of Yan? What's good about being an emperor? This world belongs to the immortal sects. Only longevity and having the means of immortals are the most important!" Liu Jin said with a complex expression.

"Hahaha, you don't understand. Becoming an emperor is to become the most powerful immortal!" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Ah?" Liu Jin was stunned.

Emperor? Immortal? Is there a connection?

"This old slave doesn't understand the prince's meaning. However, if the prince wants to be an emperor, must it be in the State of Yan? This way, the Emperor of Yan will obtain so many resources for cultivating immortality!" Liu Jin was somewhat reluctant.

"Hahaha, only in the State of Yan can I be the legitimate heir and naturally possess the world. Why not take the State of Yan? A country and a sect are two different concepts. Although the State of Yan is small, its national system is complete! This is what I value the most. A perfect system can save me a lot of trouble. I just need to strengthen and solidify it! As for those resources for cultivating immortality? They are nothing at all!" Yan Chuan smiled.

"Since this is the case, why didn't the prince accept the imperial seal just now?" Liu Jin asked curiously.

Taking a deep breath, Yan Chuan shook his head and said, "It's not the time yet. I must go to the cultivation world. It's not for apprenticeship and cultivation, but to recruit a group of truly capable people to accompany me in building an impregnable empire!"

"Recruit people?" Liu Jin was slightly stunned.

"Yes!" Yan Chuan nodded.

"Yes, this old slave understands!" Liu Jin respectfully nodded.

"Good. As long as you understand. Tomorrow, bring me all the information about the capable officials in the State of Yan. I want to see if there are talents I need in the State of Yan!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.

"Yes, don't worry, Prince!"

...

Two days later, in the early morning, at the Co-Prince's Mansion.

After washing up, Yan Chuan walked out of the courtyard. Outside the courtyard, Huo Guang and Liu Jin were waiting respectfully.

"Huo Guang, have you arranged it?" Yan Chuan stared at Huo Guang and said.

"Yes. My First Legion has been dispatched in three groups. Each group has nine hundred people. They left Yanjing at midnight last night. In Yanjing, only three hundred people are left for the prince to dispatch!" Huo Guang respectfully said.

"Prince, there are only nine hundred Brocade Army soldiers in each group. Can they complete the task?" Liu Jin was somewhat worried.

"This time, it can be considered a test for them. Jade cannot be refined without polishing!" Yan Chuan said with a slight smile.

"Yes!" The two responded.

"Let's go. We'll go to the Starry Mountain Villa to meet the Grand Tutor of three dynasties, Yi Feng?" Yan Chuan mounted his horse and said.

"Yes!" The two also mounted their horses.

A hundred Brocade Army soldiers followed behind. They rode their horses and rushed out of the city towards the 'Starry Mountain Villa'.

"Prince, Yi Feng is already old. What's the use of looking for him?" Huo Guang asked in confusion.

"When people are old, they cherish their lives and are more profound. When people are about to die, they can see through many things. Moreover, what's wrong with being old? At ninety-two years old, in the cultivation world, he is just a young lad. In the information of these two days, I have read about his various deeds. Although each time it only records how he succeeded, I can feel that there should be various arrangements before each success. Moreover, his reputation is so great that his disciples and old subordinates are all over the State of Yan. If he really thinks for me, he will be a pillar of the country!" Yan Chuan affirmed.

"A pillar of the country?" Liu Jin was surprised.

"Everything is still uncertain. This trip is just to verify it!" Yan Chuan said solemnly.

"If the prince wants to see him, just summon him. Why go in person?" Liu Jin frowned.

"No. If he is a capable person, he is worthy of my personal visit. Just talking about it now is fine. At that time, don't be disrespectful!" Yan Chuan said in a solemn tone.

"Yes, this old slave knows!" Liu Jin immediately respectfully said.

"Giddyap!"

A group of people rode their horses and rushed straight to the 'Starry Mountain Villa' outside the city.
