As the old man's messenger spoke, he couldn't help showing pride and admiration on his face. It seemed that he respected this His Majesty very much.
"Young Master Lin, this is Your Majesty's palace. You should rest here first, Your Majesty!" said the old man's envoy, who brought Lin Yi outside a very luxurious palace.
"Why, won't your Majesty come to see me?" Lin Yi frowned slightly.
The old man's emissary smiled, "Mr. Lin, why should you be in such a hurry? Your Majesty is busy with everything, and you have to make good arrangements. Don't worry, my son. I will report to His Majesty immediately. Given the importance His Majesty attaches to Mr. Lin, I believe His Majesty will soon Will be summoned!"
Now that he's here, Lin Yi doesn't want to cause any problems, so he nodded, "Alright, let's go!"
"Yes, Mr. Lin!" The envoy stepped back and at the same time winked at the servants in the palace.
"See Mr. Lin!" In this luxurious palace, servants and maidservants were in groups, almost hundreds of them, and they really covered everything, which opened Lin Yi's eyes.
Of course, the people who can live in the Thunder Fire City Palace must be extraordinary.
Lin Yi looked around for a while, then sat down, and a few maidservants beside him immediately went up to the front to deliver tea and water, in order, and there was no need to talk to Lin Yi, they seemed to have been trained.
Lin Yi didn't wait too long. At night, a large group of people suddenly arrived in front of the palace with great momentum.
Lin Yi checked quickly, and it turned out to be the Lord of Leihuo. Of course, it should be Emperor Leihuo now.
"His Majesty is here!"
Lin Yi greeted him, and immediately recognized City Lord Lei Huo.
Hundreds of years ago, Lin Yi had seen City Lord Leihuo, but compared to before, the current City Lord Leihuo actually showed some aging, which is very rare for practitioners to see.
After all, for practitioners, hundreds of years are nothing.
It can be seen that for hundreds of years, City Lord Lei Huo has not had much time to cultivate, but has been busy with his own empire.
"You all retreat first!" City Lord Leihuo glanced at Lin Yi, with a smile on his face, and then gave an order.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" All the officials and guards withdrew, leaving no one behind.
Of course, with the strength of City Lord Leihuo, he doesn't need any guards at all.
"Lin Yi, it really is you!" City Lord Lei Huo looked Lin Yi up and down, with a strange look in his eyes, "Although you and I only met once a few hundred years ago, my impression of you is not ordinary. deep!"
"Really!" Lin Yi smiled lightly, and at the same time he was looking at City Lord Lei Huo, "I don't know what should I call you, Your Majesty, or City Lord?"
"Haha..." City Lord Leihuo laughed a few times, "Whatever you want, of course, I personally like the title 'Your Majesty', it always reminds me of the unprecedented great achievements I have accomplished!"
Lin Yi shook his head helplessly.
The lord of Leihuo City invited Lin Yi to a nearby palace, where he served the best delicacies, just like old friends getting together, complete with food and wine.
On top of this highest palace, if you look casually, you can see the night view of a small half of Leihuo City, which is truly magnificent.
This kind of place, of course, can only be enjoyed by the Leihuo city lord, ordinary people are not qualified to enter this palace!
"Lin Yi, what do you think?" City Lord Leihuo asked with a satisfied smile.
"It's really good, a good place!" Lin Yi nodded.
The owner of Leihuo City picked up the wine glass and took a sip of enjoyment, "Of course, this emperor specially sent people to build this, not to mention Leihuo City, even if the entire withered plain, there is only this one. Usually, besides this emperor, No one is qualified to climb up!"
"Then I'm very honored!" Lin Yi said lightly, but the food and wine on the table hadn't moved at all. He couldn't understand what City Lord Leihuo was going to do.
City Lord Leihuo took another few sips, "Lin Yi, I know what you're thinking, do you think that the emperor will poison you, after all, I'm insidious and cunning, and I can use any means, right?"
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and then fixed his eyes on City Lord Leihuo, "It's rare for a City Lord to have self-knowledge!"
"Haha..." City Lord Leihuo couldn't help laughing again, "Lin Yi, I like you who are not hypocritical, and this emperor is indeed the same. In order to rule this empire, he has indeed used many shady methods, including Besiege and kill the city lord of Sun Moon City!"
"So, the city lord thinks it's all worth it?" Lin Yi asked.
"Of course!" City Lord Leihuo nodded without hesitation, "The goal of this emperor's life is to rule the entire withered plain and establish an unprecedented empire. For this goal, this emperor can do everything and use all methods!"
Saying that, City Lord Leihuo's eyes fell on Lin Yi again, "Lin Yi, what is your goal?"
"Become a strong man!" Lin Yi said bluntly, "I'm not interested in power at all. Only absolute strength is the only pursuit!"
"Haha...that's it!" City Lord Leihuo nodded, "You will give everything in order to become stronger, no matter what the means are, won't you!"
Lin Yi fell silent for a moment.
"What's more, what's so bad about the unity of the whole withering plain?" Leihuo City Lord smiled slightly, with a smug look on his face, "The former withered plain was like a mess of sand, for a few Xuanyuan crystal mines , Killed until the sky was dim and the earth was dark, and the number of practitioners who died on the withered plain every day is countless!"
Lin Yi is also very clear about this point. The former withered land was occupied by major forces, plus other forces, large and small, constantly fighting with each other, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.
"But now, everything has changed!" City Lord Leihuo stretched out his hand and said domineeringly, "This emperor has changed everything, unified the entire withered land into a new empire, and allocated all crystal resources reasonably. Wouldn't it be a good thing if there was no contention and no fighting?"
Lin Yi smiled slightly, "But for this purpose, many people died at your hands!"
"That's natural!" City Lord Lei Huo nodded without hesitation, "As the saying goes, once a general is successful, and a great cause is to be accomplished, someone must sacrifice. faults, such as slaughtering Haotian City in a fit of anger!"
Saying that, City Lord Leihuo raised his head, glanced at Lin Yi, and found that Lin Yi didn't react too much, "If it were now, I definitely wouldn't do it!"
"So, what about Haotianmen?" Lin Yi asked again, "What about Sun Moon City?"
