C6260 Ranked in the Three Dukes
"If there are so many experts like this in the outside world, the human race has no chance of winning. The entire Heaven Realm might be destroyed." Xun Kuang shook his head and sighed.
With Lu Yu's current strength, he could still crush people like Bo Xun and Six Ears.
However, there were still many powerful existences in the Outer Sky.
Just the disciple of the Sky Guarding Realm, Lu Dongtian, was not someone they could fight against.
Lu Yu shook his head: "Everything is done by man. I never believe that there is anything predestined in this world. If the mandate of heaven is destined to destroy the heavens, as long as there is a chance of survival, I will not give up!"
"I understand now. You want to be the ancient Human Emperor!"
Xun Kuang's eyes flashed with a bright light.
"If I have no other choice, I don't mind imitating the ancient Human Emperor and burning my blood to rebuild the Heavenly Dao," Lu Yu said.
Xun Kuang's eyes widened, and his mind went blank. He was obviously shocked by Lu Yu's words.
"If the heavens do not give birth to you, Lu Yu, it will be like a long night."
After a long while, Xun Kuang let out a sigh.
He knew Lu Yu's current strength, but he did not expect Lu Yu to be so ambitious that he would rather give up everything for the sake of the human race.
Xun Kuang had seen countless people, and he knew very well that Lu Yu was not lying. If it came to the last step, Lu Yu would really sacrifice himself and reconstruct the Heavenly Dao when he had no other choice.
"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Even you have such ambitions, let alone me."
Xun Kuang stood up and cupped his hands towards Lu Yu. "Your subject Xun Kuang greets Your Majesty."
If this scene was seen by outsiders, their jaws would definitely drop.
Emperor Tang had repeatedly requested to leave the mountain, but Xun Kuang refused.
Great Yu's ancestor had visited the thatched cottage three times, but he returned empty-handed.
Xun Kuang didn't want to become a scholar. He was a Sage, and his every action affected the entire Heaven Realm.
But now, he had given up and agreed to become a subject of Great Qin.
If news of this reached the outside world, it would cause a storm.
"In the future, I'll have to rely on Saint Xun." Lu Yu held Xun Kuang's hand.
...
Three days later.
Lu Yu took a bath and changed his clothes. He held a court assembly and officially appointed Xun Kuang as the Great Qin Guardian, one of the Three Dukes!
The moment the imperial edict was announced, Xun Kuang appeared in the court wearing the official robe of the Great Qin's First Rank.
The officials all knelt down. They looked at the old man who was covered by the holy light and couldn't believe their eyes.
This was the great Xun Sheng!
The only Saint that had survived since ancient times had agreed to become an official of Great Qin.
Many of the officials present had read Xun Sheng's words since they were young. In their hearts, Xun Sheng was like a god.
Now, this elder had appeared in front of them!
"Greetings, Xun Sheng...."
Several old and experienced officials trembled as they surrounded Xun Kuang like children.
In reality, this was indeed the case.
Even for these old officials, Xun Kuang was their elder.
"From now on, we will be officials in the same court. I hope you all can work together." Xun Kuang blandly smiled.
The officials hurriedly cupped their hands and said yes.
The Third Duke was the only official of Great Qin, and he was even more noble than the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.
No one objected to Xun Kuang becoming the Third Duke.
As the court assembly ended, the news spread throughout the entire Heaven Realm.
Many scholars who opposed the strategy of the demon race were speechless. They wanted to attack Lu Yu's treacherous ministers and clear the side of the king, but they did not expect Xun Sheng to stand on Lu Yu's side in such a high-profile manner.
