C80 There's Nothing I Can Do
Gu Yue also saw the two of them at this time. She hurriedly turned to Gu Tang and said, "Father, the two of them are already here." After saying that, Gu Yue pointed in the direction of Ye Mingyang.
Gu Tang followed the direction Gu Yue pointed in and also saw the two of them. A proud smile immediately appeared on his face, but no matter how much Ye Mingyang and Ye Shan were prejudiced against him, today, he had still obediently come here. In front of everyone's eyes, they would see him as the Sovereign King of Star Sculpting City.
When Gu Tang saw the two men from the Ye family, he turned to look at the Phoenix Platform. He said to Gu Yue, "Yue Er, let's go."
Gu Yue nodded slightly and the two of them walked towards the Phoenix Platform.
At the moment, the nobles below the Phoenix Platform had been waiting for them for a long time. What they needed to do today was to tell everyone in the world that Gu Tang would become the new king. The Star Sculpting City would also be called the Star Sculpting Country, and the king they would obey would no longer be the current Ancient Qilin Emperor. It would be the current Gu Tang.
"I've waited for a long time, let's begin now." Gu Tang nodded at the Marquis. The ceremony was about to begin.
"Alright." The one who spoke was a fat man. He was the Marquis Bai from Gu Tang's manor yesterday.
He shouted loudly. The ceremony had officially begun.
A series of deafening drum beats could be heard coming from below the Phoenix Platform. Some naked men were beating the drum in front of them as if they were risking their lives. Then, another series of explosions could be heard. The sky was filled with dazzling fireworks. The sun was also eclipsed.
Gu Tang had already reached the top of the stairs leading to the Phoenix Platform. He had a serious expression on his face as he walked towards the top of the stairs step by step.
"Father, why does Gu Tang want the Phoenix Platform to have an Emperor title?" Ye Ming had a trace of doubt in his eyes.
Ye Shan looked at Gu Tang who was walking towards the top of Phoenix Platform. His face was somewhat pale, as if he didn't hear Ye Mingyang talking to him.
Ye Mingyang saw that Ye Shan didn't answer him, but called out, "Father."
"What's the matter?" Ye Shan looked at Ye Mingyang. The only thing in his eyes was the towering Phoenix Platform, and Gu Tang, who was walking towards him step by step. He didn't hear what Ye Mingyang was saying.
"Father, I just asked you why Gu Tang held the ceremony of becoming a Peerless Emperor in Phoenix Platform." Ye Mingyang repeated what he had just said.
"Oh, is that what you asked?" Ye Shan was a little surprised that Ye Mingyang would ask this question. He continued, "This Phoenix Platform was built by the first generation Ancient Qilin Emperor. It is said that the top of the Phoenix Platform is the place closest to heaven. At that time, the first generation Ancient Qilin Emperor was the heaven in the hearts of the people. Therefore, any political ceremony would usually be held in this Phoenix Platform. This is to let Ancient Qilin Emperor see what he is doing right now. " Ye Shan patiently explained to Ye Mingyang.
"Yes." After listening to what Ye Shan said, Ye Mingyang slightly nodded his head, thinking that this Gu Tang was really bold. To think that he would come to the Phoenix Platform. If the first generation Ancient Qilin Emperor saw what Gu Tang had done, he would definitely send down heavenly lightning. He would be killed by the lightning.
Not long after that, Gu Tang had already reached the top of the Phoenix Platform. He immediately kowtowed to the statue of Ancient Qilin Emperor, then slowly stood up.
After he finished kowtowing, the noble who had been preparing for a long time in the Phoenix Platform. There was only a Water Qilin carved on the jade seal. It was so lifelike that Gu Tang couldn't help but laugh when he saw the jade seal. This was the Ancient Qilin Seal. In this continent, only the rulers of a region could possess it. Now, Gu Tang was holding the Ancient Qilin Seal in his hand, showing that he had officially become the Sovereign King of the Star Sculpting City. And now, the Star Sculpting City was going to be renamed to the Star Sculpting Country.
Gu Tang looked at the jade seal in his hand and couldn't help but laugh out loud. He had been preparing for this very moment all this time just to wait for this moment. He was truly a man that the heavens wouldn't let go of. Now, he had officially become a Sovereign King.
At this moment, the nobles and the patriarchs of the major families of Star Sculpting City who were watching from the side all knelt down. They had now completely submitted to Gu Tang. Currently, Gu Tang was the biggest king in Star Sculpting City.
Gu Tang shouted at the bottom of Phoenix Platform, "By the decree of the first generation of Ancient Qilin, I, Gu Tang, have become the second king of Star Sculpting City. Anyone who had an opinion could bring it up from below the stage." Gu Tang had fully unleashed his Flower Picking Stage cultivation base, not to mention in Star Sculpting City. Even outside the city.
They could only see the people of the Phoenix Platform kneeling down like a tidal wave. Under Gu Tang's pressure, they once again submitted to him and shouted, "Long live the Fifth Emperor! Long live the Fifth Emperor!"
Gu Yue was also delighted to see this scene. He was no longer the young master of the Gu family. Instead, he had become the prince of Star Sculpting City. Anyone who saw him in the future would have to call him prince. Thinking of this, Gu Yue's eyes were filled with pride. Who would dare to oppose her in Star Sculpting City in the future?
Ye Shan did not kneel down like the common people. After all, he was also a Flower Picking Stage expert, so he would not be affected by Gu Tang at all.
He shook his head and smiled bitterly, and a helpless expression could be seen on his face. He said to Ye Mingyang, "Mingyang, let's go. Gu Tang has already been conferred the title of Emperor. We have nothing else to do here. Anyway, we are here today. " Ye Shan didn't want to stay any longer in Phoenix Platform.
"Alright, father." Ye Mingyang nodded slightly at Ye Shan. If Gu Tang came down later and attacked him again, it would be difficult to deal with him. Immediately, he followed Ye Shan towards the Ye Mansion.
Gu Yue saw that the two of them didn't stop them from leaving. He was in a very good mood today, and he didn't like the people from the Ye family, especially that Ye Mingyang. In order to not ruin his good mood, he didn't stop them from leaving.
After Gu Tang left the Phoenix Platform, Gu Yue immediately went up to him. With a smile on her face, she said to Gu Tang, "Congratulations Father." At this moment, he no longer addressed Gu Tang as his father. Instead, he addressed him as Father. After all, from now on, this man in front of him... He was no longer the patriarch of the ancient prefecture, but the king of Star Sculpting City.
After Gu Tang heard Gu Yue's words, he also had a smile on his face. He looked at Gu Yue and said, "Yue Er, from now on, you are the prince of the Star Sculpting Country. You must work hard and not let me lose face."
"Yes, father. Your son obeys your father's teachings." After Gu Yue finished speaking, she knelt down in front of Gu Tang.
Gu Tang's eyes were filled with pride. Then, as if he had thought of something, he asked Gu Yue again.
"What about the two people from the Ye family?"
Gu Yue, who was kneeling on the ground, replied to Gu Tang, "Reporting to Father, the two of them disappeared into the crowd after seeing that Father has completed the Imperial Title. They have already returned to the Ye family."
After hearing Gu Yue's words, Gu Tang's eyes turned cold. He said to Gu Yue, "How dare they leave at this moment? This is simply disrespect to the lone king. Why didn't you keep these two people?"
"Today is Imperial Father's wedding day. I don't want these two people to disturb Imperial Father's mood."
"Good, good, good, good." Gu Tang said three good words in a row and said to Gu Yue, "Just as Yue Er said, today is my father's great day. If these two people were here, they would indeed disturb my mood."
Gu Yue originally thought that Gu Tang would scold her. She did not expect that he would be so happy now. Gu Yue was also delighted in her heart. He thought for a while and said, "Anyway, there are still many days left in the future. If that monk from the Ye family runs away, he won't be able to run away from the temple. Father is now the Sovereign King of the Star Sculpting Country. If he wants the Ye family to be destroyed... It must be a piece of cake."
Gu Tang nodded his head slightly and said, "What Yue Er said is right. We will spare them today. We will make our plans in the future."
In a short while, Gu Tang once again boarded the golden palanquin. However, his restriction and identity were completely different. When he came, he was only the City Lord Gu of Star Sculpting City. Now, when he returned, he would be the Sovereign King of Star Sculpting Country.
Tonight, the ancient prefecture would surely be filled with cheers and revelry, but for the Ye family, it would become a sleepless night.
In the main hall of Ye Mansion, there was only one light, causing the hall to look a little dim.
Two people were sitting in the main hall, and that was Ye Shan and Ye Mingyang.
"Mingyang, I think you should escape from this Star Sculpting City." Ye Ming sighed. Today, he saw Gu Tang becoming a Peerless Emperor, which made him feel a little hopeless. Who in the Star Sculpting City would be able to fight him in the future?
After listening to Ye Shan's words, Ye Mingyang didn't say anything. He remained silent. He didn't know how to answer his father, although he already had the strength to protect himself in this Star Sculpting City. However, the Ye family was now in a precarious situation. If he were to leave now... Gu Tang would surely send someone to hunt him down. He wasn't worried about his own life. What he was concerned about was the man and his family.
"Father, since things have come to this point, you shouldn't sigh like this anymore. We just need to think of a way. Maybe we can find a way to solve this problem." Ye Mingyang looked at Ye Shan's sorrowful expression. He could not bear to see it. It wasn't easy for Ye family to get out of this crisis some time ago, but now, another problem had arisen before it could be resolved. This time, it was even more troublesome than the last time.
After listening to Ye Mingyang's words, Ye Shan smiled bitterly. What could he do? He had thought of this question countless times in his mind, but in the end, he only thought of three. The first one was to pledge allegiance to that Gu Tang, but he couldn't accept this method. Even Ye Mingyang would never agree to it. The second one was to escape from Star Sculpting City. He would wait for the day when he would make a comeback. In the end, both of them would perish together.
Ye Shan had thought about it countless times. Only the second option was feasible. He could die, but Ye Mingyang could not because he was so powerful at such a young age. One day, he would become a famous expert, and his second son would also be a disciple of the Heaven Seeking Sect. His future in cultivation would definitely be bright. When he had some achievements in his studies, he would definitely be able to restore the Ye family. What he needed to do now was to protect his current glory, and he wouldn't hesitate to die in battle.
"Mingyang, you should leave. There is no place for us, the Ye family, in the Star Sculpting City now. As long as you have some achievements in the future... If you return to the Ye family, I will feel at ease even if I die. " Ye Shan sighed again and said to Ye Mingyang.
"Father... I am the son of a noble. How can I flee in the most dangerous moment of my family? "After Ye Mingyang heard Ye Shan's words, he was unwilling. He did not want to leave Star Sculpting City like a loser.
"If I tell you to leave, then just leave." Ye Shan turned around and shouted at Ye Mingyang. He had no other choice but to hope that Ye Mingyang could survive this crisis. Otherwise, Ye family would never be able to turn the tables.
