In the garden.
Li Ya and Li Yi sat opposite each other. There was no third person in the garden, and the two of them just drank in silence.
Li Yi did not speak and merely accompanied Li Ya as they drank.
After a long time.
Li Ya was drunk and said, “I feel bitter. How should we deal with this mess in Fengtian?”
Li Yi did not reply. The government affairs were not something he could meddle in. What he needed to do was to listen.
Li Ya began to complain. Ever since he took over Fengtian, Fengtian had been oppressed. It was not until he comprehended the Dao of Martial Luck that Fengtian was prosperous for some while. However, in the end, Fengtian was targeted by Guangtian. He felt extremely aggrieved.
No matter how good martial art techniques were, it still required resources and time to develop. Fengtian lacked time and resources. With powerful enemies surrounding them, there was no space for Fengtian to expand.
Li Yi felt awful when he heard that. He had been the Lightning God for so many years, and he had been guarding Fengtian. Naturally, he did not want Fengtian to fall.
“Compared to the honor and disgrace of the dynasty, I am more worried about the comfort of the common people. Guangtian enslaved the Sovereign Dynasties that surrendered to them and divided their people into different ranks. How humiliating is that? I don’t want the women of Fengtian to be humiliated by others and the men of Fengtian to be slaves for the rest of their lives.”
When Li Ya said those words, he gnashed his teeth.
When Li Yi heard this, he said in a deep voice, “Your Majesty, no matter what you do, I will follow you!”
Li Ya said, “I want to find the Dao Ancestor. What do you think?”
Li Yi revealed a difficult expression. In his opinion, the Dao Ancestor was the ancestor of all immortals and had the same attitude towards all living beings. He was already soft-hearted to be able to give him the fate of an immortal god and let him protect Fengtian. How could he fight against Guangtian just for Fengtian?
It had to be known that there were also worshipers of the Dao Ancestor in Guangtian. Even though they did not believe in the Dao Ancestor, but the immortal gods under him, they were still believers of the same path.
Why did the Dao Ancestor have to help Fengtian deal with Guangtian?
Even in Fengtian, there were competitions for prefectural cities, but they had never seen the Emperor deliberately suppressing another city for the sake of another.
Li Ya saw through his thoughts and said, “I am not asking the Dao Ancestor to defeat Guangtian on behalf of Fengtian. Instead, I am asking the Dao Ancestor to take Fengtian away and take us under Great Jing.”
Li Yi’s eyes lit up and he said, “That’s indeed possible. The legend of the Dao
Ancestor moving the Dragon Vein Continent has long spread. Even though Fengtian is larger than the Dragon Vein Continent, it’s not impossible tor the
Dao Ancestor to accomplish this.”
Li Ya nodded and sighed. “I am already tired. I don’t think I have many years left to live. With my last few years, I will shoulder the responsibility for the fall of the dynasty.”
Li Yi’s expression was complicated as he said, “Your Majesty, the people of Fengtian are the only ones in the world who can’t blame you. If it weren’t for you, Fengtian would have fallen long ago. Without you, there would have been countless casualties. Even though there is now a national crisis, at least the people don’t have to worry about food and clothing.”
Li Ya forced a smile. He was not gratified, but he felt relieved deep down.
As long as someone was willing to support him, he would not feel so much pressure.
“I’ll have to trouble you with this. After all, you are the god envoy of the Dao
Ancestor. You must have a closer relationship with him,” Li Ya said seriously. Li Yi nodded and decided to think of a way to contact the Dao Ancestor when he returned.
Late at night.
“Yes, I agree. But before that, I have to inform the Emperor of Great Jing, so that Great Jing will be ready to accept you as a vassal country.”
Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded in Li Yi’s heart. Li Yi was pleasantly surprised. He did not expect the Dao Ancestor to hear him just because he was praying in his heart. He hurriedly knelt before the bright moon and thanked the Dao Ancestor for his kindness.
The next morning.
Jiang Changsheng asked Ye Xun to inform the Emperor of this matter, and Ye Xun immediately set off.
If the Fengtian Sovereign Dynasty wanted to seek refuge, Jiang Changsheng naturally would not refuse. In the Great Wilderness, there were not many humans. Furthermore, there were many worshipers in the Fengtian Sovereign Dynasty. Plus, this was also what many of his worshipers yearned for.
However, he had to let Great Jing make preparations beforehand to accept such a huge Sovereign Dynasty. Otherwise, it would not be good if it caused chaos.
Ji Wujun smiled and said, “It seems like the Great Jing does not need to conquer the world. The Sovereign Dynasties will come to seek refuge by themselves.”
Venerable Bai, who was teaching Jiang Tianming, lamented, “This is a path of development that no one could imagine. Only immortal gods can accomplish this. ”
Jiang Changsheng did not reply and continued to cultivate.
Bai Qi looked at Jiang Tianming and said, “Stinky brat, why are you in a daze?”
Jiang Tianming sat in front of Venerable Bai, his eyes wandering. No one knew what he was thinking.
Hearing Bai Qi’s words, he still had no reaction.
Venerable Bai couldn’t help but pick up a book and knock on his head. Only then did he wake up from his dream.
“Tianming, what are you thinking about?” Venerable Bai asked.
In the face of Jiang Tianming, he did not dare to flare up, mainly because the Dao Ancestor was still by his side.
Jiang Tianming frowned and his young face was filled with confusion. “I seem to have a dream just now. I dreamed that Longqi Mountain was besieged.”
The moment he said that, everyone looked at him. Even Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes.
“What? Who dares to besiege Longqi Mountain? Are they crazy?” Bai Qi was shocked.
Jiang Tianming scratched his head and said, “There are humans, ferocious beasts, and demons. There are so many of them. The sky and earth are filled with…’
Everyone looked at each other, and Venerable Bai frowned.
Ji Wujun thought of something and said, “Doesn’t he contain nearly a hundred bloodlines in his body? Does one of his bloodlines contain a bloodline that can foresee the future?”
Jiang Changsheng raised his hand and pulled Jiang Tianming in front of him. Then, he used the Phantom God’s Eye to read his memories.
Soon, he saw the scene Jiang Tianming had dreamed of.
Smoke billowed in Jingcheng, and thunderclouds densely covered the sky. Disciples of Longqi Mountain surrounded Longqi Mountain. Mu Lingluo, Jiang
Tianming, Bai Qi, Ji Wujun, and the rest were all there, except for Jiang
Changsheng. Looking up, he saw enemies in all directions. There were human martial artists, ferocious beasts, and demons. At the end of the horizon, there were also terrifying huge shadows approaching.
The whole area felt oppressive, as if the apocalypse had arrived.
Jiang Changsheng noticed that the eyes of those martial artists were glowing red, as if they were possessed.
At the same time, everyone in the courtyard was also discussing this matter.
Mu Lingluo frowned and said, “If it’s really a prophecy, wouldn’t Great Jing…
Venerable Bai said, “There are many ferocious beasts with a certain degree of foresight. The Sacred Dynasty once had such a mythical beast, but foresight is not necessarily accurate. It’s just that the general trend is the same. After all, once you foresee the future, it will change. However, there is one thing that will not change, and that is that the calamity will eventually arrive.”
Tai Xi asked in surprise, “What kind of existence can make humans, ferocious beasts, and demons join hands?”
Venerable Bai shook his head. He had no idea.
The Sword God said, “Don’t panic. Listen to what the Dao Ancestor has to say.”
Just as he said that, Jiang Changsheng closed the Phantom God’s Eye. Jiang Tianming trembled and immediately woke up.
“Great-grandfather, why did you pull me over?”
Jiang Tianming frowned and asked with an unhappy expression.
Jiang Changsheng threw him back and said, “He did dream of it. The martial artists in his dream should have been manipulated. It’s not only the martial artists, but also demons and ferocious beasts. As for when it happened, I can’t tell. ”
“However, I was not in his dream. As long as I am here, that will not happen.” Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that.
It turned out that the Dao Ancestor was not at Longqi Mountain. They were still wondering what kind of enemy dared to attack the Dao Ancestor.
Bai Qi asked in surprise, “Could it be that the enemy will use a trick to lure the tiger away?”
Jiang Changsheng did not answer and allowed them to discuss on their own while he calculated in his heart.
“I want to know how powerful the mastermind behind the scene in Jiang Tianming’s dream is?”
[It involves the law of time and space. It is temporarily not within the scope of the system’s calculations.]
When Jiang Changsheng saw this result, he was not disappointed. Instead, he was convinced of one thing.
This matter came from the future, and it would indeed happen!
What kind of existence was hidden in the Great Wilderness?
Jiang Changsheng asked himself honestly. Even if he were to leave Great Jing, he would leave behind a clone and not run away alone. What would happen in the future that would result in that?
He once again calculated that the strongest expert around Great Jing. It was still that mysterious existence with a value of more than 4 billion incense points.
Could it be that the other party was here to scout around?
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and began to sense the thoughts of the followers of Great Jing to see if he could find any clues.
The Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth alone could not track the other party down, and he could not bear to spend more than four billion incense points. It was too extravagant.
Imperial Palace, Apricot Garden. “Your Majesty, I’m here.”
“Your Majesty, you touched her…”
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, come this way.”
“You little girls, don’t let me catch you..
Jiang Liu covered his eyes with a silk handkerchief and chased after the palace maids in the courtyard. Laughter continued, and there were even some scenes of seeing no evil.
The God of Thieves quickly walked into the garden. When he saw this scene, he frowned and quickly walked to Jiang Liu’s side. “Your Majesty, Prime Minister Chen requests for you to convene the Prime Minister Council. The Dao Ancestor has sent Ye Xun here and said that the Fengtian Sovereign Dynasty is willing to surrender to Great Jing. The Dao Ancestor wants you to make preparations.”
When Jiang Liu heard the voice of the God of Thieves, he was about to get angry, but when he heard the rest of the sentence, he immediately pulled off the scarf and excitedly asked, “Is that true?”
“How could I have deceived you…”
“Alright, alright. I’ll be right there. Tell Official Chen to summon the seven ministers first!”
“Yes!”
The God of Thieves immediately left.
Jiang Liu put his hands on his hips and wiped the marks on his face with excitement.
A palace maid came over and asked charmingly, “Your Majesty, didn’t you say you are going to enjoy life?”
Jiang Liu pushed her away and snorted. “I want to enjoy my life, but I will not reject the merits that come knocking on my door. Hahaha, with the Barren Province and Fengtian, the historians will not dare to defame me!”
He was extremely excited and immediately walked out of the garden with the eunuchs following closely behind.
A month later.
Ye Xun returned to Longqi Mountain and informed the Emperor that he was ready to receive Fengtian at any time.
Jiang Changsheng nodded and said, “Then tell him to wait. Fengtian is currently recalling the citizens and civil and military officials overseas. I reckon it will take some time.”
Ye Xun smiled and said, “Chen Li has already calculated this. He said that he would be waiting for your divine power at any time.”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and continued to cultivate.
Ye Xun noticed that the atmosphere in the courtyard was somewhat gloomy. He came to the Sword God’s side and asked in a low voice.
The Sword God did not hide anything and revealed what Jiang Tianming had foreseen. Ye Xun did not panic when he heard that. Instead, he was burning with anger.
“I must participate in such an unprecedented decisive battle. When will I come? Don’t tell me I was handling Fengtian’s matter?”
It had been a long time since he had fought to his heart’s content since he came to the Great Wilderness. As for hunting ferocious beasts, it always felt lacking. It was far less exciting than a dynasty war..
