Chapter 188: Winning The First Dynasty And Enfeoffing It!
Luo Wushang died, Ji Linglong surrendered, and this war has lost all suspense.
"What do you three have to say?"
Zhao Wujin, carrying a giant axe, asked with a smirk on his face.
The three Venerables in the Void Fusion Realm looked at each other and put away their Magic Treasures. They bowed to the black-robed clone from a distance and said, "Greetings, Lord of the Alliance!"
All the cultivators of the Tianji Dynasty fell silent for a moment, then put away their Magic Treasures and bowed respectfully to the black-robed clone. Their voices echoed in all directions, "Greetings, Lord of the Alliance!"
The laughter beneath the black-robed clone's mask couldn't be suppressed. It was unexpected that he could easily take down an empire without shedding blood.
In fact, the biggest problem lies with Luo Wushang's actions.
He personally led the troops, but resorted to despicable sneak attacks and abandoned his subordinates to escape. These actions have already lost the support of the people. Coupled with the surrender of the strongest combatant, Ji Linglong, there is no meaning in continuing the fight.
Thus, the Tianji Dynasty was destroyed!
The black-robed clone immediately ordered the reorganization of the cultivators belonging to the Tianji Dynasty, integrating them all into the ranks of the Evergreen Alliance. Regardless of their strength, they would temporarily not be given any important roles. This was an inevitable trend.
After all, they were defectors. It was impossible for them to surrender and still ride on the heads of the original members of the Evergreen Alliance. What would the old members of the Evergreen Alliance think?
"Lord of the Alliance, what should we do with these people?"
Suddenly, Zhao Wujin and Chu Yuankang flew over with a group of cultivators and cupped their hands in salute, seeking instructions.
The black-robed clone turned his head and looked at them with some doubt, "Who are they?"
Before Zhao Wujin could speak, a surrendered cultivator in the Void Fusion Realm next to him explained, "They are members of the royal family and loyal followers of Luo Wushang."
In the crowd, a young man roared furiously, "I will kill you!"
"Behave yourself!"
Zhao Wujin kicked the young man hard and then said, "This is Luo Hongfei, the son of Luo Wushang."
The black-robed clone scanned with his divine sense and found that this young man was only at the Nascent Soul stage of cultivation base. He was a little surprised at first, but then he understood.
According to the intelligence from the Pavilion of Celestial Secrets, Luo Wushang was obsessed with imperial power. Moreover, cultivators have a long lifespan. With Luo Wushang's personality, he would never want to have offspring to share his power at an early age. This son was only born a few decades ago under the pressure of the ministers.
Since they were relatives of Luo Wushang and loyal followers, there was nothing more to say. Qin Changqing would not leave behind a group of troubles.
"Kill them all."
The black-robed clone said indifferently.
Ji Linglong hesitated to speak, looking at the angry Luo Hongfei, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
The Tianji Dynasty had already collapsed. Since she had joined the Evergreen Alliance, she could no longer cling to her former master. This was a taboo.
"Execute!"
Upon receiving the black-robed clone's order, Zhao Wujin immediately ordered his men to push Luo Hongfei and the others to the front of the two armies and shouted loudly.
The cultivator in charge of the execution raised his blade and beheaded them one by one. Heads flew into the sky, blood spurted from their necks, and the fleeing Nascent Souls were instantly captured and turned into ashes.
The members of the Evergreen Alliance cheered and rejoiced, while the cultivators of the former Tianji Dynasty had complex expressions on their faces.
The reason why the black-robed clone did this was to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, so that no one would have any more rebellious thoughts. After all, his conquest of Youzhou had progressed too quickly. In these few years, he had recruited tens of thousands of cultivators. Some people might be unstable.
He wanted everyone to see that as the leader of the alliance, he not only had unparalleled strength, but also an iron-fisted approach. He treated his own people warmly like spring, but treated his enemies coldly like winter.
Using both kindness and severity was the best way to control people.
Under the command of the black-robed clone, with the main force of the Evergreen Alliance in the lead, the cultivators of the Tianji Dynasty were quickly reorganized and diverted, and they swiftly rushed to various places to plunder the resources of the Tianji Dynasty.
And the black-robed clone directly transported Ji Linglong, Xin Chaosu, and other high-level members into the system space of the imperial capital, Tianji Palace.
When Ji Linglong appeared again, her face was filled with shock.
She had just been at the border of the Tianji Empire, so how did she suddenly return to the palace?
You see, the entire Tianji Empire is vast in territory. Even a powerful person in the Fusion Void Realm would need more than a month of flying to reach it. Yet the leader had brought her back to the palace with a wave of his hand!
"Linglong, don't be too surprised! What you have seen is just the tip of the iceberg of the leader's supernatural power," Xin Chaosu chuckled.
Seeing this Fusion Void Venerable who looked like a teenager, Ji Linglong couldn't help but feel a fondness for her. She felt even more mysterious and terrifying towards this master.
"Who dares to trespass in the palace!"
A guard wearing spirit armor flew out to intercept them.
"Step aside!"
A Fusion Void Venerable of the Tianji Empire scolded and waved his hand, sweeping the guard away.
The swept-away guard was a bit dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Didn't Golden Toad Venerable and the others go with His Majesty on the expedition? How did they come back so quickly? And they even brought back a stranger who seemed to be extremely respectful to him...
"This is the leader of the Evergreen Alliance. Don't be insolent!"
A high-level expert in the Divine Transformation stage of the Tianji Empire flew over and began to explain to the guards.
The guards' eyes widened in shock.
Is the Emperor dead? Has the empire been destroyed?
Just a month ago, His Majesty was still leading a grand expedition, but unexpectedly, the other party effortlessly took over the entire empire, and even the Emperor died without a complete body!
"We pay our respects to the leader!"
They were just palace guards, not personal guards. Their loyalty to the Tianji Empire was limited. Upon hearing that the Emperor had died, they immediately followed suit and bowed in salute.
The black-robed clone nodded slightly, without speaking, and flew towards the Great Hall.
In the Great Hall of the palace, the black-robed clone flashed and sat on the throne, while Ji Linglong and the others knelt down respectfully.
"Now that the Tianji Empire has been destroyed, Yurakshasa, I will give you one month to establish the main hall and the Evergreen Academy here. You will be the lord of the main hall, and Ji Linglong and Xin Chaosu will be the deputy lords."
"Yes!"
Yurakshasa and the other two immediately stepped forward.
Ji Linglong was somewhat surprised. She didn't expect that as a defector, the leader would give her such an important position.
Of course, the black-robed clone had his own considerations. First of all, Ji Linglong's character was good, loyal to her master, and not someone who would betray him. Secondly, her strength surpassed everyone else. Furthermore, she was very familiar with the original territory of the Tianji Empire. With her cooperation, Yurakshasa would be more capable in her work.
Zhao Wujin and the others congratulated them happily, without any dissatisfaction in their hearts.
They understood that the reason why the black-robed clone didn't arrange a position for them must have been because he had his own plans. When the remaining two empires were conquered, they would naturally not be treated unfairly.
"Lei Wenguang, Di Rao, Qin Qishuo, Shen Fenghua!"
"Here!"
"I want to establish four Evergreen Hall branch halls here, and you will be the lords of these four branch halls. Don't neglect your duties!"
The black-robed clone's gaze fell on Qin Qishuo, don't look around, yes, it's you he's talking about!
