Star Odyssey

Behind the bank, in the huge manor, a middle-aged man was drinking tea and looking around. His name was Ming Zhaocai. From his name, you could tell that he was from the royal family and was the same generation as the emperor Ming Zhaotian.

Although this person is a member of the royal family, unlike Ming Zhaotian and others, this person prefers to manage money and is proud of it. He even wanted to change his name to Ming Zhaocai. For this, he was punished by Ming Zhaotian, but he still did not change. In the end, Ming Zhaotian asked him to take over the empire's finances and become finance minister.

The sound of slight footsteps came, and Mingzhao turned around and saw a young girl with a pretty face and a smile, giving people a very refreshing and comfortable atmosphere.

The girl walked up to Ming Zhaocai, bowed and saluted, "Alan pays homage to Mr. Ming."

Mingzhao raised his hand, helped the girl up, and exclaimed, "Are you Alan?"

"It's my little girl," the woman said respectfully.

Ming Zhaocai said favorably and looked at the girl, "Yes, yes, but to be able to become the boss of Mingdu Wuyun Bank at the age of twenty, I think he must have extraordinary abilities."

Alan smiled and said, "Thank you, sir."

Ming Zhaocai looked very satisfied, made a gesture of invitation, and the two of them took their seats.

"Miss Alan, you must know the purpose of my coming to Wuyun Bank this time," Mingzhao said straight to the point.

Alan nodded, "Of course, the aliens from the Endless East China Sea are invading, and the empire is short of warships. Wuyun Bank is willing to contribute and provide military supplies to repay the empire for its support over the years."

Ming Zhaocai's eyes lit up, "I wonder how much Miss Alan is prepared to pay?".

Alan clapped his hands, and a servant handed the list to Ming Zhaocai. Ming Zhaocai looked at it, his expression changed, and he looked at Alan in surprise, "Girl, this is too much."

Alan smiled and said, "Not much, His Majesty's birthday is coming, so consider this a gift from our Five Luck Bank to His Majesty."

Mingzhao smiled and said, "In that case, thank you very much, Miss Alan."

Alan smiled and said, "It's good that you are satisfied, sir. It's just a pity."

"What a pity? What's a pity?" Ming Zhaocai raised his eyebrows and looked at Alan in confusion.

Alan sighed and said, "This little girl comes from a humble background and is a businessman, so she is not qualified to enter the palace to observe the ceremony."

Mingzhao smiled and said, "I see, what's the difficulty? If the girl is willing, just follow me. I can take the girl into the palace to watch the ceremony."

Alan was overjoyed, "Really? Your Excellency, you are willing to condescend to take a little girl to the palace for pilgrimage?"

"Hahahaha, you're welcome. I can even take the girl to meet the emperor brother. The emperor spends most of his time in lucking in the stars. Only that day will come. If the girl is lucky, she can still talk to the emperor brother," Ming Zhaocai said with a smile.

Alan quickly thanked him.

Not long after, Mingzhao left.

In the Five Luck Bank, Alan looked at Ming Zhaocai's back, his face was solemn, and his appearance gradually changed. If there are any trialists here, they will definitely recognize that this woman is one of the top four in the Ten Academy Competition, Grandini Mei. Bis.

Just when Grandini was about to enter, gongs and drums rang loudly, and countless people walked onto the main road, looking into the distance with admiration.

Grandini was curious and reverted to Alan's appearance again. She walked out of the bank and after asking around, she found out that His Majesty's birthday was coming. The top candidate in this period's literary examination would enter the school to pray for His Majesty. She looked curious, "Top pick?" It's such an ancient title, but those who can get this title are the elites among the elites. In ancient society, this status was not low in gold.

As the sound of gongs and drums got closer and closer, the army cleared the way, and a man riding a huge strange beast waved and greeted the people on both sides, smiling happily.

When Grandini saw the man, his face suddenly turned dark, as if he had eaten a dead fly. Han Chong, it was this guy. Although his appearance had changed, the feeling he gave her could not be changed. She recognized this so-called number one scholar at a glance. Han Chong.

It's so disgusting that he actually came to Shenwu Continent to take the first prize examination.

In the middle of the road, with the giant beast above its head, Han Chong happened to see Grandini. A strange color flashed in his eyes, and he smiled gently and waved in greeting.

Grandini made a sound and turned back to Wuyun Bank.

Han Chong glanced at Wuyun Bank with a smile, then didn't care and continued to move forward.

On the other side of Mingdu, not far from the palace, is the Prince's Mansion. At this moment, Prince Minghao looked nervous and stared at the end of the road. Naturally, he was not waiting for the No. 1 Scholar, but for a strange woman, a woman with a thousand-year heritage and the creation of Tianji Ball. A strange man, the inheritor of heavenly secrets.

After the war with the outsiders, countless outsiders arrived, and no one on the mainland could detect them. When they were distressed, a man who called himself Tianji took action and created the Tianji Sphere to find outsiders for the empire. Since then, the empire has been stable.

Tianji is not a sect, but a kind of inheritance. No one knows what Tianji inherits, but everyone knows that it has mysterious power of divination. Even the emperor Ming Zhaotian respects Tianji, but it is a pity that he cannot find it.

Minghao didn't expect that Tian would suddenly find him.

"Your Highness, there is someone!" one person exclaimed, and everyone looked towards the end of the road. A woman with a veil on her face and surrounded by mist slowly approached.

Minghao's eyes lit up and he stepped forward quickly, followed by everyone.

"Shaoshu, please see His Highness the Crown Prince." The woman slowly bent down and spoke softly.

Minghao was confused, "Are you the contemporary Tianji?"

The woman saluted, "Exactly, Shaoshu's shallow cultivation has disappointed His Highness."

Minghao hurriedly returned the gift and said sincerely, "Tianji is serious. The senior who created the Tianji Ball has never been in the Martial Emperor realm, but he has unpredictable abilities. Tianji does not matter his cultivation level."

The woman's eyes were like stars, looking at Minghao, "Your Highness has given me the award, but the little girl cannot bear the name of Tianji, so please call me Shaoshu. The little girl's real name is Shaoshu."

Minghao nodded, "Miss Shaoshu, please come into the Prince's Mansion."

Shaoshu nodded, "Your Highness, please."

At this moment, Lu Yin did not know that many acquaintances appeared in Mingdu. One night later, the next day, Lu Yin entered Mingdu and thoroughly saw the most prosperous capital city in the entire Shenwu Continent.

Surrounded by four peaks, the stars of the Five Fortunes are in the sky, and the wide moat is sparkling with waves. Mingdu is the place where the storms gather. Nearly half of the top ten on the evergreen list are in Mingdu. Countless masters appear in the sky, secretly and openly. Everywhere you look, they are all human figures.

At the city gate, dozens of heavenly secret balls emitted a faint light, and they did not stop for a second, constantly emitting force and sweeping in all directions.

The entire Mingdu is covered by the Heavenly Secret Sphere. Once there is a fluctuation in star energy, it will be discovered immediately.

The headquarters of the Daming Palace and the Divine Guard Palace are both in Mingdu. It can be said that even a strong hunter will have a hard time escaping once he enters Mingdu.

Lu Yin marveled at the prosperity of Mingdu and walked all the way towards the headquarters of Mingfu.

Just two hours after Lu Yin entered Mingdu, Prince Mu's convoy arrived and entered one after another.

Inside Rongjun, Ming Yan looked outside the gauze curtain with bright eyes, as if she was looking for something.

Ming Zhaoshu closed his eyes and rested his mind.

At this time, Tang Si's voice came, "Your Majesty, the investigation results are out."

Ming Zhaoshu opened his eyes and "said".

"There is no problem with Yue'er's ancestral origin, but it can only be traced back to eight hundred years ago, and it doesn't exist any further back," Tang Si replied.

After hearing the question about Fairy Moon, Ming Yan's expression changed and she lowered her head.

Ming Zhaoshu frowned, "Is it impossible to find it, or is it not there?".

Tang Si was silent for a moment and said, "There probably isn't any. Whether it's local city annals or genealogy, there's no information from eight hundred years ago."

"Let Yue'er come to see me immediately," Ming Zhaoshu said in a low tone.

"Yue'er is gone." Tang Si's voice was cold.

Ming Zhaoshu was furious, walked out of Ronghu, and looked at Tang Si, "What did you say? He's gone?".

Tang Si lowered his head, "Yes, the results were delivered today. My subordinates looked for her immediately, but found that she was not in the motorcade."

"It was here yesterday, but it's gone today. You really know how to choose the time." Ming Zhaoshu said coldly. After saying that, he looked around. Many Mingdu people on both sides of the motorcade looked over. His expression softened, "Okay, this is Forget it."

Tang Si raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, won't you send someone to arrest her?".

Ming Zhaoshu shook his head, "She should be from a big force outside the territory. She has taken root in the mainland eight hundred years ago, and she can change her appearance. If she can't be found, forget it." After that, he returned to Ronghu.

Ming Yan exhaled and showed a smile. She was quite lucky. She liked Yue'er very much. Although this woman had lied to her, she was her first friend to Ming Yan, which was rare. She understood the thousand-year blood feud. Not deep, not that much hate.

Ming Zhaoshu returned to Ronghu and sat down. He looked tired. He accidentally glanced at Ming Yan, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Was his daughter smiling? Did she already know Yue'er's identity?

"Now that your Majesty's birthday is approaching, the Daming Mansion, the Divine Guard Mansion, including the army, and local experts have all gathered to search for traces of outsiders. I heard that the descendants of Tianji have all appeared. As long as there are outsiders in this city, there is absolutely no way they can escape. "Fall off," Ming Zhaoshu said calmly, as if he was speaking to himself or Ming Yan.

Ming Yan's face paled after hearing this, "Father, the successor of Tianji? Is it the person who invented the Tianji Ball and had the power of divination as mentioned in the book?"

"Yes, Tianji has the power of divination, and no outsider can escape. That Yue'er is 90% an outsider and will definitely die, so there is no need to arrest her," Ming Zhaoshu said calmly.

Mingyan's fingers turned white and she clenched them tightly, looking uneasy.

Ming Zhaoshu glanced at her and made sure that she already knew about Yue'er being an outsider. He shook his head and said nothing more. His own daughter knew very well that she was too kind.

However, Ming Zhaoshu didn't know that Ming Yan was worried not only about Fairy Moon, but also about that man, a man she would never forget.

The Daming Mansion is located in a corner of Mingdu, and is inconspicuous. Many people know that this is the Daming Mansion, but no one dares to approach it because of the two ferocious statues of alien beasts at the entrance of the Daming Mansion.

It's not really a strange beast, but it exudes an aura that can frighten ordinary people. It can even create a terrifying illusion and make people lose their minds.

Lu Yin walked outside the Daming Mansion and looked at the two strange beasts made of unknown materials. His eyes became more and more surprised. Isn't this an original treasure?

Others couldn't tell, but he could tell that the two strange beasts were clearly original treasures, and someone interpreted them as strange beasts.
