"Soul Emperor? What kind of Soul Emperor are you!" Wang Cong lost his voice.

He has never seen a soul emperor with a second soul ring of a thousand years and a fourth soul ring of ten thousand years.

What kind of monster is the person in front of me?

The bodies of several disciples behind him couldn't help but tremble.

The Ice Bird Sect is not located in Ice and Snow City, and Deacon Wang beside them is only a Soul King. If they offended such a Soul Emperor, they would most likely be killed on the spot.

With their status in the Ice Bird Sect, who cares whether they live or die?

Before Qi Tian could speak again, Huo Mu led a group of city guards and surrounded the street.

"People from the Ice Bird Sect still dare to commit crimes in the Ice and Snow City. Come and capture them." Huo Mu gave an order, and Deacon Wang and others were surrounded outside the city behind him.

"Governor Huo Mu, aren't you afraid of the Ice Bird Sect's accountability?" Wang Cong's expression changed drastically and he quickly took out the name of the sect.

Judging from the current situation, he even felt that Qi Tian in front of him was Huo Mu's tool for fishing law enforcement.

Seeing this, Qi Tian smiled in his heart.

This Wang Cong has the word "Cong" in his name, but what he does is not smart. Since Huo Mu has a bad relationship with the Ice Bird Sect, if he uses the Ice Bird Sect's name now, isn't he looking for death?

This old senior is not a master who bows his head. When he dared to confront the three teaching committee members of Tiandou Royal Academy, how could he be afraid of these Soul Kings and Soul Lords?

Wang Cong still wanted to resist, but was eventually killed on the spot by Huang Laozhen. The onlookers all clapped and cheered.

Huo Mu's eyes turned to Qitian.

The person in front of him felt both strange and familiar.

At the beginning, the Qi Tian he met at Tiandou Royal Academy was just a fledgling boy. A few years have passed, and Qitian's face has long since lost the tenderness it once had. For a moment, he couldn't remember the identity of the person in front of him.

"Senior Huo Mu, we haven't seen each other for a few years, have you forgotten me?" Qi Tian put away the indifference on his face and smiled.

Huo Mu waved his hand and told the city guards to withdraw. This street has returned to its previous liveliness.

"It turns out it's you." Huo Mu laughed.

Back then, he said that he would let Qitian come to his place as a guest. But the north of the Tiandou Empire is a bitter cold land. How could people living in the south come here?

I thought that I would never be able to see Qi Tian in the future. Unexpectedly, the other party actually came to the door today.

"Old Huang, tell me to go down and I will hold a banquet to welcome this junior today."

Huang Lao nodded and quickly rushed back to the Governor's Mansion.

Huo Mu put his arm around Qi Tian's shoulders and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a few years. You have become a lot stronger. Thinking about it today, you brought your entire family to see me?"

Qi Tian smiled awkwardly, and after some explanation, Huo Mu understood that the relationship between him and Zhu Zhuqing was just ordinary friends.

"Haha, what's the harm? I'm very happy that you can come to me. How about this, you don't have to go back in the future. I heard that you were canonized as an earl by the empire, and my position as admiral is still vacant. Come on, take charge."

The governor was the top leader in the imperial provinces and managed all military and people's livelihood matters within the territory. The admiral is the leader of the army in the province. When the governor leaves the province, the admiral will temporarily take over all affairs in the province.

Although Qi Tian is a count, in fact he only enjoys the treatment of a count and does not have any power. Even if you are an official, you will only serve as the city lord in some developed cities, and it is impossible to directly serve as the second-in-command of a province.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior, but as you know, this is not my ambition." Qi Tian smiled bitterly and explained quickly.

Huo Mu was not displeased with his rejection, "If you don't talk about this, we may not have seen each other for a long time. Please tell me about your time in the Soul Master Competition."

Not participating in the Soul Master Competition has always been his regret. Listening to what happened in Qitian's mouth, he felt a sense of novelty.

……

In the reception hall of the Governor's Palace.

On the way back to the Governor's Mansion, Qitian and Huo Mu discussed many things. Both sides have an intuitive feeling about each other's current situation.

"Zhu Zhuqing, since you are Qi Tian's friend, you are also my Huo Mu's friend, so there is no need to be reserved. If you have any opinions, just speak freely."

Zhu Zhuqing was born in the Star Luo Zhu family. As the second largest family in the Star Luo Empire, he occupied a pivotal position in the court of the Star Luo Empire. Disciples of the family have been taught how to handle government affairs since childhood.

She had a different view on what the Ice Bird Sect was doing.

"Governor Huo Mu, the Ice Bird Sect is a hidden sect. They will choose to show up after you come to power. They must have their own plans."

"If I guessed correctly, they should have won over many ministers in the court of Tiandou Empire."

Hearing this, Huo Mu couldn't help but have daydreams in his mind.

Early this morning, the news he received from the Ice Bird Sect's deacon made him connect the Ice Bird Sect with his father's death. Moreover, he knew something about the collusion between the Ice Bird Sect and the great nobles of Tiandou City.

But Zhu Zhuqing, an outsider, would not understand all this. The fact that she can see the truth behind it proves that she has considerable wisdom.

"It is indeed true. I don't know, what is your opinion? In other words, what is the purpose of the Ice Bird Sect's move?"

Zhu Zhuqing took over the conversation.

The Ice Bird Sect's actions were the same as a precedent she had seen in the Zhu family.

"The power of the Tiandou Empire is too decentralized. Governor Huo Mu, if I guess correctly, the Tiandou imperial court will rarely ask about any of your actions in the Beidi Province, right?"

Huo Mu nodded.

As a northern border province, it is not rich in itself. Apart from collecting corresponding taxes from them every year, the Tiandou Empire never asked him about anything he did.

He, the governor, is actually no different from the Tu emperor.

Wait, Tu Emperor?

"Are you saying that the Ice Bird Sect wants to drive me away as the governor completely? Then they, the Ice Bird Sect, will join forces with the ministers of the DPRK and China to completely take over the Northland Province?" Huo Mu said in a deep voice.

Zhu Zhuqing did not deny it, "More than that, they may also want to extend the province of Northland to create a kingdom belonging to their sect."

Qi Tian on the side saw that Huo Mu did not refute Zhu Zhuqing, and knew that this matter was probably true.

In the original time and space, there was no record of the northern part of the Tiandou Empire. He didn't know whether the Ice Bird Sect would succeed or not. But what is certain is that if Xue Beng becomes the emperor, the power of the Tian Dou Empire will be dispersed again. The Ice Bird Sect is very likely to succeed and eventually establish a kingdom of their own.

But this kingdom must not have lasted for thousands of years.

After Huo Mu pondered for a moment, he said, "Zhu Zhuqing, I'm afraid you guessed it right."

Combined with his eye contact in the court, it is not difficult to confirm whether Zhu Zhuqing's words are true.

Zhu Zhuqing did not claim credit, but said with a humble face: "Governor Huo Mu, I was once a member of the Star Luo Empire. At that time, there was a kingdom in the Star Luo Empire that was established by such means. As a lesson from the past, please be careful in dealing with it."
