Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the beginning of April in the 32nd year of the Yan Yuan Era, the Emperor crowned a total of twelve princes, including the long-lost seventh prince, Jiang Ye, who was crowned as King Jin.
Another twelve vassal kings were born in the world, and all of them resided in Fengtian. Fengtian was special. Even though it was a vassal country, it was too large and had to be divided. Li Ya could accept this. Even if he were to control a vassal country as large as Great Jing, he would not be at ease, fearing that the Emperor’s blade would fall one day.
On this day.
It was rare for Jiang Liu to hold a morning court session, and all the officials gathered together. The magnificent hall was extremely lively, and all the civil and military officials were very happy.
When Jiang Liu came with the Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad, the hall finally quieted down.
The Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad was still in the small cauldron. Jiang Liu walked to the dragon throne with the help of a eunuch and sat down. Over the years, he had aged very quickly, making many officials who had not seen him for a long time feel as if a lifetime had passed.
Jiang Liu slowly said, “Today, I have called for my beloved officials for two important matters.”
His gaze swept across the hall. The Crown Prince, Jiang Han, was also present.
“Firstly, I am prepared to cede the position of Emperor next year and have the Crown Prince, Jiang Han, ascend the throne.”
As soon as he said that, the entire court was in an uproar, but they did not reject his decision. Seeing this, Jiang Han revealed a happy expression, which made Jiang Liu feel very upset.
F*ck!
I am not dead yet!
Jiang Liu cursed inwardly. He noted down some of the guys who had joyful expressions on their faces and decided to eliminate all of them this year!
Soon after, he faked a cough and interrupted the discussions of the entire court. “Secondly, a calamity is about to befall the Human Race. A race named the Qiangliang Race is about to attack. In ancient times, it was the Qiangliang Race that drove the Human Race out of the Great Wilderness. As for the information about the Qiangliang Race, I will order the White-robed Guards to pass it down. I am not sure when the Qiangliang Race will attack, but all of you will have to assist the next emperor to fight against the Qiangliang Race.”
Hearing this, the hall shook again. Jiang Han’s smile immediately froze and became extremely gloomy.
How powerful would a race have to be to expel the Human Race?
Jiang Han almost exploded. So the reason why this old man ceded the throne was because he was afraid that the dynasty would be destroyed in his hands!
However, how could he reject the position of emperor?
Once he refused, there were princes who would replace him. This was not something he could choose.
Jiang Liu stood up and said, “Alright! From today onwards, the prime ministers will assist the Crown Prince in presiding over the government affairs!” He left with a hunched back, leaving the court officials stunned.
So casual?
Chen Li shook his head. He was used to the absurdity of this emperor.
However, he felt that it was alright. Even though Jiang Liu was ridiculous, he did not incur the wrath of the heavens or the resentment of humans. He had also made contributions in the past. The establishment of the Barren Province had indeed helped the Human Race to better explore the Great Wilderness.
Now, it was time to see how the next emperor would do!
Chen Li looked at Jiang Han. Coincidentally, Jiang Han turned to look at him and their eyes met.
In that year, the Emperor abolished many officials, causing Great Jing to usher in a turmoil that had not been seen in a hundred years. However, this turmoil only stemmed from the court. His last madness made the officials look forward to the Crown Prince’s ascension even more.
Jiang Han’s ascension to the throne was smooth sailing, and he was preparing for the coronation at the end of the year.
From the beginning of the new year, the era name was changed to De Huang.
In the second half of the year, the Emperor would conscript soldiers. Those who reached the Divine realm and above could become soldiers, while those below the Divine realm could only be logisticians. Information about the Qiangliang Race quickly spread throughout the dynasty. There were notices posted in all the provinces and cities. In the Great Wilderness, there was only Great Jing. The vassal countries were all subsidiary countries of Great Jing and were equivalent to provinces. In the face of powerful races, they could not find other dynasties to seek refuge and could only grit their teeth and face it. Therefore, the Emperor was not afraid of the unrest of the people. What he wanted was for everyone to be tense.
The Emperor directly shouted that he wanted to restore the bravery of Taizong and Tianzong and wash away the shame of the Human Race for being driven out of the Great Wilderness. His words made the blood of all martial artists surge.
The Emperor had yet to accomplish any great feats, but everyone was already looking forward to his achievements.
In the face of the Qiangliang Race, the martial artists were not afraid. Instead, they looked forward to their arrival.
After a long period of peace, most people looked forward to war, especially martial artists. They had already begun to fantasize about making contributions and making a name for themselves.
Under the blue sky, vast mountains stood on the ground. The flowers and plants were very short, similar to a plain. There were very few plants on the mountains. There were many rocks of different sizes, and the top was covered with snow that had yet to melt.
On the mountain peak, two cat demons were lying together.
Hei Tian yawned and said, “Big Brother, when will we start recruiting troops?”
Huang Tian laid on the ground like a lion with a strong physique. It closed its eyes and said, “Wait a little longer. When I master that guy’s ability, we will begin to recruit demon soldiers.”
After being out for so many years, they had also begun to transform. Relying on the Heaven-Deriving Martial Law, they had all reached the One Grotto-heaven realm and were trying to break through to the Two Grotto-heaven realm. With their strength, they now had the qualifications to travel the world in the Great Wilderness.
Hei Tian faintly said, “When can I become a Demon Emperor?”
Huang Tian remained silent.
At that moment, the mountain peak began to tremble, and it became more and more violent.
Huang Tian opened its eyes and scanned the surroundings vigilantly. Hei Tian was even more nervous. In the Great Wilderness, they often encountered terrifying ferocious beasts that were larger than mountains. Generally speaking, the larger the body, the stronger the strength. The appearance of some ferocious beasts were already enough to intimidate them.
The two cats were soon attracted by the direction of the end of the northern land. They saw a dust storm coming from the sky, swallowing up mountains along the way. In the dust storm, there were terrifying huge shadows moving forward. Their bodies looked like humans, but their heads were not human. All their limbs seemed very slender. Under the cover of the dust storm, all of them exuded a terrifying aura. There was no end to the dust storm, as if the God of Earth, who cleaned up the world, was coming.
“Should we run?”
Hei Tian asked nervously.
Huang Tian swept a glance at the incoming dust storm and said in a deep voice, “How are we supposed to run? From the looks of it, unless we are faster than them, we can’t possibly go around them. Why don’t we hide in the mountain?”
It immediately jumped down, followed by Hei Tian. The two cats crawled into a cave and blocked the entrance with soil.
Soon, endless sand and dust swept over, and majestic mountains were submerged like small mounds between heaven and earth.
No one knew how long had passed.
When the world calmed down, Huang Tian carefully pushed away the soil and stuck its head out to take a look. As soon as it came out, it stiffened in place.
They saw skeletons hanging on the nearby mountains. Some of the skeletons pierced through the mountain and towered into the clouds. It was abnormally shocking. Looking up, the entire earth was filled with skeletons, just like a field of bones abandoned by gods.
Huang Tian looked at the end of the world where the dust storm left and muttered, “That direction is…”
In the 3rd year of the De Huang Era, Emperor Yan Yuan, Jiang Liu, passed away. After 32 years of his reign, it was decided that his posthumous name would be Anzong.
After a long discussion between the Emperor and the prime ministers, they finally chose to send Jiang Liu to the Ancestral Temple. This could show the
Emperor’s filial piety and dismantle the conspiracy theories among the people. During Jiang Liu’s reign, the territory of Great Jing had actually doubled. This achievement was enough for him to enter the Ancestral Temple. However, his self-discipline was not good, which was easy to cause controversy.
In the same year, the number of soldiers Jiang Han had recruited had reached tens of millions. The many provinces and countries were also recruiting soldiers, but they were restricted from recruiting as many soldiers as Jiang Han had. Great Jing’s total strength had exceeded one billion incense points, and
the number of soldiers had reached 200 million. Furthermore, the number was still increasing.
A large number of military camps had been established near the Barren Province, covering a radius of 100,000 miles and was still expanding. The purpose was to guard against the Qiangliang Race’s attack. Jiang Han was prepared to fight against the Qiangliang Race in the Barren Province before they arrived at Skyview Land..
