Chapter 1250: Chapter 1250: The State Preceptor’s Uniform

Gone?

As the golden light disappeared within the room, everyone present had not yet come to their senses.

The sudden arrival of the Prime Minister of Xia had already felt incredibly surreal to all those present; his abrupt disappearance further astonished everyone.

"Lord National Master’s strength has advanced yet another step compared to ten years ago," Bei Tang Ru Meng, the only one in the room who had conversed with Ji Yuguang, said with a sense of nostalgia.

Among those present, she was one of the few who had seen Ji Yuguang, and by the last time she had met him, the Prime Minister of Xia had already been ranked among the Earth Immortals.

And now, Bei Tang Ru Meng was almost certain that her power was one step closer to breaking through Heaven’s Gate.

"Truly deserving of the top spot on the beauty ranking; her elegance is unparalleled," Yu Ruo’s face was filled with a mix of longing and aspiration, not to mention the fact that, for him, just seeing Ji Yuguang made the trip to the demon-removal conference entirely worthwhile.

"Hmph! So what, give me a few years, and my name will surely be on that list of beauties too!" Su Pingping declared.

Hearing this, Yu Ruo looked at her with a sarcastic smile, "Do you really think so?"

"What? You think I don’t deserve it?"

Yu Ruo smiled and remained silent, everything was conveyed without words.

Su Pingping’s beauty was indeed good, and her figure was even more provocatively stunning, but compared to Ji Yuguang’s otherworldly elegance, she was far from comparable.

In terms of looks and aura, the two were simply not at the same level.

How the Nine Heavens Tower ranked the beauty list was unknown to outsiders, but the fact that Ji Yuguang could be consistently at the top, alongside even Le Niushang through multiple changes of the list, was proof enough of her extraordinary beauty.

And having seen her that day, Yu Ruo had to admit, her reputation was well deserved.

The same thought occurred to others from the Ancient Clans too; both her strength and beauty were all too easily the objects of aspiration for these up-and-comers.

The only exception was the Ji Clan’s territory.

The few members of the Ji Clan who had come to the demon-removal conference looked visibly peculiar. It seemed that, about Ji Yuguang, who hailed from the Ji Clan, there were more complex relationships at play.

"Su Chengyu?"

Noticing that Su Chengyu seemed lost in thought, Bei Tang Qian Xiao spoke with curious surprise.

It was only then that Su Chengyu returned from his trance, clenching his fist secretly as the words of Ji Yuguang echoed in his mind, while shaking his head to indicate that he was fine.

Bei Tang Qian Xiao, who clearly sensed that Su Chengyu was acting out of the ordinary, wanted to ask more, but it was Yang Junmo who spoke first, "Forget it, don’t bother him. I know this kid; he’s probably just fancied the Lord National Master’s appearance and got carried away. Over the years, the number of young men who have fallen at our Lord National Master’s feet are beyond count."

Hearing this, Su Chengyu gave Yang Junmo a disdainful glance, "He is Master An of Lin An, I do care about her, but that’s it, nothing more."

"Really? You’re telling me you don’t have any thoughts about taking advantage of the master-disciple relationship, not even a little bit swayed by the sight of the Lord National Master’s beauty?"

"I..." Su Chengyu subconsciously wanted to retort, but the image of Ji Yuguang’s stunning face surfaced in his mind, and he found himself at a loss for words.

It wasn’t that Su Chengyu truly had any designs; it was just that Ji Yuguang’s face, pure yet seductive to the extreme, would make any man deny feelings only if he were a eunuch or gay.

And clearly, Su Chengyu was neither.

Su Chengyu, it seemed, was also quite the lecher!

Especially Ji Yuguang in that Taoist robe; that was a uniquely enticing kind of uniform allure!

Seeing Su Chengyu suddenly at a loss for words, Yang Junmo looked shocked, "Crap! I was just joking; are you serious? Lin An’s not enough for you, and you even dare to fancy the Lord National Master?"

Yang Junmo took a few quick steps back as he spoke, signaling his intent to sever ties with Su Chengyu, "Kid, don’t ever say you know me in the future, I wouldn’t dare acknowledge an acquaintance with someone like you."

Witnessing Yang Junmo’s demeanor, Su Chengyu gave him a disdainful glance.

Was that really necessary?

He admitted that Ji Yuguang’s presence was indeed oppressive, but what of it?

In the end, she had simply cultivated a few decades more than himself, who’s to say whose status wouldn’t be higher if they were on the same starting line?

If it weren’t for the fact that she was Master Lin An, Su Chengyu couldn’t care less about who she was.

Is being at the top of the Beauty Ranking that impressive?

At least in Su Chengyu’s eyes, Lin An was no less than Ji Yuguang.

If really pushed into a corner, Su Chengyu was even prepared to take on both, mentor and disciple!

Seeing Su Chengyu’s expression, Yang Junmo blinked and said, "Brother, you don’t actually have plans, do you? Don’t stay quiet, I’m scared?"

"Beat it, stop fanning the flames and getting on my nerves here," Su Chengyu retorted angrily.

Although displeased, Su Chengyu knew that Ji Yuguang was ultimately Master Lin An and this was a hurdle he would eventually have to overcome by himself.

Luckily, the other party hadn’t issued a death order against him.

Even though he was told to leave the Capital City, it was to leave as soon as he could, indicating he still had some time to move around freely.

During this time, Su Chengyu had to find a reason that would allow him to openly stay in the Capital City.

Thinking of Ye Qingci’s arrangements, Su Chengyu suddenly understood something and turned his gaze towards Red Flame.

Sensing Su Chengyu’s gaze, Red Flame looked at him and said, "I will report today’s events truthfully to the Demon Slayer Department, so you needn’t worry too much."

With a sneer, Su Chengyu retorted, "Would you dare to not report them truthfully, Red Flame Holy Envoy?"

Everything that happened at today’s demon extermination assembly was witnessed not just by the noble houses of the Capital City and the four corners’ aristocratic families, but also by members of the Nine Ancient Tribes. Red Flame, even if he wanted Su Chengyu dead, wouldn’t dare to pull any stunts in such a place.

"Su Chengyu, don’t think that just because you made a great contribution at the demon extermination assembly and entered the Demon Slayer Department, it’s a done deal! Even as a reserve Holy Envoy, you would need more than half of the existing Demon Slayer Saints’ approval, and you absolutely cannot meet that condition!"

The Twelve Holy Emissaries are based on a hereditary system, with twelve titles inherited by twelve individuals. When a Holy Envoy dies or retires, someone else ascends to the position.

Therefore, even for a reserve, it is necessary to receive a united statement from the current twelve.

At the very least, support from seven votes is needed to possibly become a reserve Holy Envoy.

During this period, the master of the Demon Slayer Department, Yang Chengyin, holds the power of a single veto vote.

If he does not approve, no one can become a reserve Holy Envoy of the Demon Slayer Department, even with full support.

"Demon Slayer Saint? Do you think I’m so eager for that title?" Su Chengyu said derisively as he made clear his contempt for the first time.

Red Flame, who already harbored ill will towards Su Chengyu, became furious upon hearing these words, "How audacious! Do you realize that based on that statement alone, I could execute you right here and now!"

"Then give it a try," Su Chengyu challenged, his eyes flashing with the intent to kill, evidently ready to clash with Red Flame.

As both men locked eyes, tension escalated to a breaking point, with a battle imminent.
