Chapter 839 - 238: Human Emperor and Li Yuan

Chapter 839: Chapter 238: Human Emperor and Li Yuan

The "Great Migration" has begun, albeit intermittently.

Meanwhile, another official of the Great Zhou proposed to establish a pass at Sword Mountain, strictly forbidding all citizens from entering the West Pass, while spreading the word that barbarians eat humans, and once you enter the West Pass, you will be captured, skinned, and eaten by them.

This suggestion was approved, and a large number of craftsmen began to make their way toward Sword Mountain.

The chaos of Cloud Mountain Path, which started the day the Barbarian King was defeated, has only just begun and is now only escalating.

...

But these matters seem to have nothing to do with the young Emperor.

Ji Hu began to travel back and forth, intending to bring all the tumultuous Social World influence under the control of royal authority.

The young Emperor, accompanied by the Eight Thousand Flying Bear Army, with only a beauty carrying the Dragon Banner by his side—He Si, began to sweep through the Social World.

And the first target was the Han Kingdom, or rather the Golden Buddha Temple located on Mianzhou Path.

The Golden Buddha Temple is very low-key, a temple that hardly has any Extraordinary Martial Artists, and it belongs to the Buddhist Sect.

Faced with the arrival of the Emperor, the Buddhist Sect did not dare to resist and intended to surrender immediately.

But upon learning of the Emperor’s demands, the abbot of the Golden Buddha Temple was completely dumbfounded.

The Emperor’s demands were simple: hand over all the heritages, and all Sixth and Fifth Grade Martial Artists must be enlisted and obey the Court’s orders.

How could the abbot of the Golden Buddha Temple agree to this? 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

He thought of gathering some fellow practitioners to reason with the Emperor.

But the Emperor did not reason with him; he massacred the Golden Buddha Temple that day, took its heritages, and then continued westward.

To the west, the next stop was the largest force on Mianzhou Path—the Divine Wood Hall.

The Divine Wood Hall quickly split into two factions.

The Jing Sect surrendered, while the Nun Sect advocated fleeing.

Interestingly, neither side advocated fighting because everyone knew it was a battle they couldn’t win.

Thus, when the Emperor’s troops arrived at the gates, the Patriarch Jing opened the doors and surrendered, willing to enlist, while also reporting that the Gu System had fled. Though they fled, the Gu System did not take the heritages with them.

And then, the young Emperor said nothing more and pursued them, killing many strong members of the Gu family in the deep winter.

The power of the current Emperor is ridiculously strong.

When Li Yuan learned of these happenings, he had already seen numerous Sixth, Fifth, and even Fourth Grade strongmen madly heading south, seeking the protection of Wendao Palace.

More and more people are heading south.

It should be known that Wendao Palace doesn’t even have a Fourth Grade, suddenly faced with so many martial artists, they were truly at a loss.

The strategy of Wendao Palace was not to accept, letting them stay outside if they came.

Those outsider strongmen, not understanding the situation, dared not recklessly invade or take over, but established a camp to the north for now.

Deep winter...

The snow is like blades.

Gu Xuejian, disheveled, sat in the snow within the camp.

Just over three months ago, she was the Divine Wood Hall Master, but now... she’s become a wanted criminal.

The Emperor isn’t going to forgive her, nor will he accept her again, the opportunity was one-time, missed, and there would be no second chance.

She panted heavily, looking at the snow outside, feeling there was no way to heaven and no path on earth.

The only thing that gave her a little sense of security was the strongmen gathered here from various places.

Profound Gold Temple, Mirror Flower Water Moon Tower, Buddhist Sect, Daoist Sect, Social World elites... Various forces camped here.

Every time a new force arrived, it reinforced people’s fear of the Emperor.

Clearly, this Emperor is preparing to change the world completely, making all existing forces disappear, and new structures will rise.

But there is one more force on the Emperor’s path, which is—Wendao Palace, the Judges.

Wendao Palace’s Sixth and Fifth Grades number in the thousands, plus the massive Judges, is undoubtedly a force capable of overturning the world.

However, that was in the past.

Now, no one believes Wendao Palace can prevail.

...

"Hand over all the heritages."

Upon knowing the news, Li Yuan did not hesitate, telling the Divine Crow Lady directly his thoughts, "Let everyone enlist, join the Court, and await orders."

The unification of mountains and rivers, the trend of the times.

Wendao Palace was once his field of leeks, afterwards... it still will be.

The Divine Crow Lady nodded.

Things happened even faster than expected.

After defeating the Wolf Riders, the young Emperor clearly understood his own power.

He is already invincible on this land.

Since he is invincible, there is nothing to fear.

From the south and continuing downward, the strongmen fleeing to Shanbao County hoping for Wendao Palace’s shelter have no choice but to continue south into the Sunset Rain Plain.

There, though demon beasts are as numerous as tides, it’s better than being killed by the Emperor.

...

That day, Shanbao County was decorated with lanterns and banners, preparing to welcome the arrival of the Emperor.

Under the direction of the Divine Crow Lady, both Wendao Palace and the Judges were prepared to greet the emperor who rules over all.

Ji Hu, clad in a Nine Dragon Robe, stood in the air, flying from afar, his eyes deep and silent, no one knew what he was thinking.

The Eight Thousand Flying Bear Army had become eight thousand "clerks," responsible only for reception and liaison tasks.

The Cultivation Skills would be compiled at Jade Capital.

Martial Artists also needed arrangement.

Seeing Shanbao County, this legendary southern place, many soldiers of the Flying Bear Army had excitement in their eyes.

While the many Wendao Palace disciples and Judicial Officer disciples let them show astonishment.

The Flying Bear Army wasn’t the same group as in Lü Xuanxian’s time, only its military system remained unchanged.

But this military system maintained the previous memories, they naturally knew how the Ghost Riders were formed.

The Ghost Riders were made from three thousand Wendao Palace disciples!

And before their eyes, the multitude of high-grade Wendao Palace disciples was over ten thousand, and given time, this number would continue to grow.
