This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 344: The Ultimate Grace
Before going to court, Li Fei carefully calculated his achievements:
Defending Chongcheng and saving tens of thousands of people from being massacred is a contribution that is unquestionable.

Afterwards, he absorbed the emperor's dragon energy and fought against hundreds of imperial cavalry, thus thwarting the plan of True Lord Qingxu.

At that time, only Jinshan Prefecture had not been completely incorporated into Qingxu Zhenjun's formation, and only two key nodes of Jinshan Prefecture, Badong City and Chongcheng, had not been breached.

Just one more attack is needed, and True Lord Qingxu's formation will be further completed. The Emperor's dragon energy obtained by Yun Shu will be further weakened, and Yun Shu will not be able to hold on.

Not only will the life of this national teacher be in danger, but Jinshan Prefecture will also be completely lost, and True Lord Qingxu will successfully establish the Taoist Kingdom!

If we look at it from this perspective, Li Fei’s achievements are indeed unprecedented!

But in fact, Yun Shu did not place all his hopes on Li Fei at that time. The real backup of the court was Buddhism.

At that time, not long after Li Fei defeated the more than one hundred imperial cavalrymen, the Buddha's natal magic weapon from Pudu Temple arrived in Ming Province and directly broke through the magic circle of Qingxu Zhenjun!

If we look at it from this perspective, even if Li Fei failed to successfully control the emperor's dragon energy and failed to defend Chongcheng.

Blood sacrifice of the enemy also takes time.

Before Chongcheng is completely sacrificed, Buddhist support will arrive.

So there is an important variable in this:

How long can Yun Shu last?

There is a great possibility that even if Li Fei fails, Yun Shu will be able to hold on until the Buddhists arrive.

But there is also a certain possibility that when Chongcheng began to be sacrificed in blood, the two True Lords began to be affected, and ultimately Yun Shu was unable to hold on until the Buddhists arrived to support him.

This variable directly determines the size of Li Fei’s contribution!

Even Yun Shu himself couldn't say how long he could last.

This not only depends on his personal performance, but also on the performance of True Lord Qingxu.

It depends on the strength of Taiyu's resistance and the stability of the emperor's dragon energy given by Lan Lingcheng.

Under such circumstances, it can be said that Li Fei played a decisive role in this incident and was the only one who could save the situation.

It still lacks persuasiveness.

But even without him, the final victory would not have changed.

Not necessarily.

Therefore, the final size of Li Fei's contribution and what kind of reward he can receive depends on how the imperial teacher Yun Shu reports to the emperor.

It depends more on how the emperor wants to reward Li Fei.

And now, the results are out:
The emperor recognized Li Fei's extraordinary contribution!

Being directly conferred the title of marquis, even if it was a lifelong marquisship that could not be inherited, was already a huge reward beyond anyone's imagination!
A marquis who is less than 20 years old, let alone the history of the Great Lan Dynasty, there is no such precedent in the history of mankind for thousands of years.

So Li Fei once again set a record that will go down in history!
The ministers in the hall only recovered from their shock at this time.

Most of Li Fei's contributions were already known during previous publicity.

There are two things that are really surprising:

First, Li Fei fought against hundreds of imperial cavalry? !
How can a warrior at the Dao Foundation Stage fight against an army of more than a hundred soldiers from the Imperial Camp?
This record completely overturned the worldview of many powerful people in the hall!
But many people also noticed the four words "By the Will of Heaven and by the Mandate of Heaven" mentioned in the imperial edict.

These people all had a certain understanding of destiny, and they saw with their own eyes that night the giant purple-gold dragon flying to the southwest.

Therefore, the four words "Feng Tian Cheng Yun" made them think of many things, and they looked at Li Fei with even more surprise:
This man is truly a miracle child.
The second surprising point is 'blocking Master Qingyu and causing damage to his flying sword'.

The reason why "Under the Sky" directly included Li Fei in the overall list of Fengyun and ranked him third was that one of the most important achievements was "forcing back Master Qingyu".

There was no news of the specific battle situation at that time. Even "Under Heaven" could only confirm that Li Fei and Qingyu Zhenren had fought each other, but could not confirm more details.

Even so, being able to survive under the sword of a Daluo Sect master with amazing killing power is already a very remarkable achievement, enough to rank third on the Fengyun overall list.

But the imperial edict just now said "cause the flying sword to be damaged".

Surviving a sword and damaging the opponent's natal flying sword are two completely different levels of difficulty!

Li Fei was able to damage Master Qingyu's flying sword. How terrifying must his combat power be?

Can Zhu Fenghua, who ranks first in the Fengyun overall list, do it?
For a moment, everyone looked at Li Fei with very complicated eyes.

Too bright, too good to be true!
Lu Wenxing in the back was so excited that his whole body was shaking!

He knew he had made the right bet.

After years of ups and downs in the political arena, Lv Wenxing understands one truth better than many people:
For the vast majority of people who are not that talented, choice is more important than hard work!

Lu Wenxing is now at the fifth level of Daoji Stage combat power and has incorporated four types of implants.

It took him a long time to "return to oneness", and now the first implant he had inserted had entered the "aging period" and could not wait until he inserted the fifth implant.

This is also the most common problem encountered by most Daoji-stage warriors.

Lu Wenxing knew that his talent in martial arts limited himself, so he focused all his attention on his career.

Choosing Li Fei was the most important decision he made in his career.

Now it turns out that this is the most correct decision!
For a marquis who is less than 20 years old, this is really a dream that cannot be realized in any posture.

Under the imperial throne, Ye Ze'an continued to read the imperial edict:

“A million dollar bounty.

A mansion.

You can enter the Royal Library and choose any secret book.

You are allowed to bring a knife to court!"

At this point, the reward for Li Fei was completed.

When people heard the rewards, each one more enviable than the last, their eyes widened.

A bounty of one million yuan would be fine, as the 'Green-Faced Ghost King' now has businesses in Datong Prefecture and Xingcheng, with an annual net income of over one million yuan.

Li Fei is no longer short of money, at least not small change.

The mansion awarded as a reward must be in the inner city, and the location must not be bad and the area must not be small.

The value of such a mansion itself would not be less than one million yuan. What’s more valuable is that it is a mansion bestowed by the emperor, which cannot be bought with money!
As for entering the Royal Library to select secret books, Lu Wenxing and others had been rewarded like this before, but the number of levels they could enter was different.

The Royal Library has a total of twelve floors. Most people can only choose secret books below the seventh floor, but Li Fei can choose any one!
Finally, the rule of "allowing to carry a sword to court" really made the ministers see the emperor's preference for Li Fei!

It was impossible for a 19-year-old marquis to be promoted to a higher title, so 'carrying a sword to court' was a special favor from the emperor.

Looking at the entire court, there are less than ten people who have this honor!
In front, the eldest prince looked back at Li Fei with gloomy eyes.

He also practiced martial arts, was a warrior, and was a favored prince. But he was not qualified to carry a sword to court.

If Li Fei was just a lowly ant in his eyes before, now this ant has turned into a dragon that is strong enough to show its fangs and claws to him!

"Your Majesty, thank you for your grace..."

Li Fei's loud voice rang out in the hall.

He seemed very calm from the moment he entered the palace, and only when the ceremony of conferring the title of marquis began did he finally show some emotion.

"Hahaha."

The emperor laughed heartily, but said:
"Don't thank me yet."

"Ok?"

These words startled everyone.

Is there more?!
The emperor asked Ye Ze'an to continue.

This time it was a reward to the Imperial Master Yun Shu:

"National Master Yun Shu, the Pillar of the Nation"

As everyone expected, the status of the National Master was already there. He was already the head of the Zhengfa Pavilion, in charge of all the Zhengfa Courts in the world and commanding hundreds of thousands of sorcerers. There was really no room for him to be promoted any higher in his official position.

As for cultivation resources or other rewards, Yun Shu really has no shortage of them.

In other words, the court cannot give him what he wants for the time being.

Therefore, Yun Shu can only be rewarded with honor:
"Appoint Yunshu as Duke of Anguo, a hereditary title!"

Ye Ze'an said finally.

Another reward that was beyond everyone’s expectations!

The reward given by the emperor this time is really generous!
The titles of nobility for non-royal relatives in the Da Lan Dynasty were: Duke, Marquis, Earl, Viscount, and Baron.

According to the ancestral system, there was no king with a different surname in the Da Lan Dynasty, and it was impossible to enfeoff a king with a different surname.

Therefore, Duke is the highest honor a subject can achieve!

Hereditary succession means that this highest honor can be passed down from generation to generation, which is truly sharing the glory with the country!

The emergence of every hereditary lordship means the birth of a family.

Before the current emperor ascended the throne, the Da Lan Dynasty had only one hereditary duke.

He ascended the throne for forty-seven years and conferred titles on two dukes.

One is the "Military God" Wen Renzheng.

Nineteen years ago, in the battle outside Lanling City, Wen Renzheng led the Sky Blue Cavalry to defeat the coalition forces of seven Western countries with more than 100,000 troops and saved the Great Lan Dynasty. After the war, he was ranked first in terms of merit and was named Duke of Zhenguo by the Emperor.

But the title of Duke of Zhenguo is hereditary.

Now there is one more Duke of Anguo, and the title is hereditary!
Many people thought that the title of Duke of Anguo would be given to the Prime Minister Ye Ze'an. After all, he had the achievements of the Ming Xin Reform. However, this reform had not yet reached the point of final conclusion.

However, he did not expect that it was the Imperial Master Yun Shu who took away the honor of Duke Anguo first.

And he also got a hereditary succession!

"My lord, thank you for your kindness."

Yun Shu bowed calmly to express his gratitude.

The emperor looked at Yun Shu, who looked several dozen years older, and said:

"I have one more thing to say to the National Master. I will keep your aspirations in mind. I hope that you and I, the king and his subjects, can continue to work together and realize our ambitions!"

Yun Shu bowed deeply:

"I will do my best!"

"Duke Anguo, please stand up and take a seat with the Prime Minister."

The emperor spoke, then looked at Li Fei who was standing in the center of the hall:

"Li Fei, come forward!"

Hearing this, Li Fei strode forward.

There are rules for standing in when attending court meetings. Simply put, the higher the status, the closer the seat.

Under the Danbi, there are four people closest to the left and right sides:
Ye Ze'an, Wen Renzheng, Yun Shu and the Prince.

After that came the eldest prince, the third prince and the rest of the royal family and important ministers.

Of course, if King Li attended court, his position would be the front and he would have a seat.

Li Fei came and stood about thirty steps away from the Danbi, ranking just behind the eldest prince and others.

"Go forward."

On the throne, the emperor continued.

These words made the eldest prince's face change.

Upon hearing this, Li Fei continued to move forward and came to a distance of less than ten steps from the Danbi.

This is already the front position, on the same line with Ye Ze'an and Wen Renzheng!
When attending the court meeting for the first time, Li Fei could only look at the backs of Ye Ze'an, Wen Renzheng and others.

Now, the ministers behind him were looking at his back.

"Li Fei, I heard that today is your nineteenth birthday."

The emperor looked at Li Fei and said with a smile.

Li Fei was stunned and looked up at the emperor, somewhat surprised.

"What you have just been rewarded with is what you deserve. I have also prepared a gift for you."

The emperor smiled.

These words shocked the officials again.

It turns out that the sentence "Don't be in a hurry to thank me" fell here.

It turns out that there really is a reward!
