Chapter 926: Chapter 730: Arrangements, the Final Battle Approaches (Part 2)

This undercurrent is turbulent, invisible, and intangible, yet sufficiently perilous.

Because they all know that Qin An, the Savior, has not returned yet.

Everyone knows what Qin An went to do, and they only hope that Qin An can succeed, but the longer the time drags on, the more deeply they feel a pressure creeping over them.

However, fortunately, under this pressure, Emperor Xuanwu has immediately taken action.

He continues to release good news.

How many people have broken through, and how many have achieved the Manifest Saint Realm, even the breakthrough of an ordinary cultivator would be reported.

The purpose behind Emperor Xuanwu’s actions is quite simple; it is merely to solidify people’s morale.

He is aware that sometimes morale is more important than combat power.

Having combat power isn’t enough; no matter how strong you are, if there is no morale and unity, it is just a fragile piece of paper that can be pierced at any time.

He understands this well because when he led the Daqian Kingdom against the previous dynasty, the national strength of the Daqian Kingdom wasn’t very strong. They were able to achieve victory relying on that indomitable spirit.

Therefore, while Emperor Xuanwu’s actions are somewhat sly, their effects are not bad.

At least for now, everything appears normal.

Emperor Xuanwu laid down his brush and neatly folded the last document before gazing out at the serene night sky, lost in thought, without reacting for a long time.

In actuality, to talk about real pressure, no other place compares to the pressure he is under.

After all, the news he has released is merely to stabilize morale.

He knows what kind of enemy they will face.

Under such enormous pressure, Emperor Xuanwu is increasingly anticipating the results from Qin An’s side.

He believes Qin An will face danger, and he also believes Qin An can eliminate that danger.

Perhaps before, he had some concerns, but now those concerns have been cast aside, allowing him to focus more on handling the various affairs of the Daqian Kingdom.

Only in the dead of night would he think of the situation on Qin An’s side.

The time is already late, the sun has long set.

Emperor Xuanwu thought for a moment, then decided to extinguish the oil lamp and retire early.

Even with his Heavenly Human Realm power, he still feels a slight fatigue after attending to such heavy duties.

Therefore, resting early is an extremely luxurious thing for him.

Just as Emperor Xuanwu was about to extinguish the oil lamp on the desk, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door.

The footsteps were very clear, reaching Emperor Xuanwu’s ears.

Emperor Xuanwu was slightly taken aback, with his Heavenly Human Realm power, he naturally knew who had arrived.

His heart was filled with joy, and he quickly got up and walked to the door to open it, seeing Qin An.

"You’ve finally returned. How are the circumstances?"

After this sentence was spoken, Qin An subtly shook his head.

"You have the power of the Heavenly Human Realm, so naturally you know my situation. Of course, things are far better than you imagined."

"Why don’t you release your divine sense to feel it, that way I won’t need to explain much. After all, explaining too much can become unclear."

Upon hearing these words, Emperor Xuanwu’s face showed a trace of doubt, but he didn’t hesitate at all. He followed Qin An’s advice, releasing his divine sense.

The divine sense power of the Heavenly Human Realm is immensely terrifying; when released, it envelops the entire capital city.

Immediately, Emperor Xuanwu sensed a wave of powerful forces emanating from a vacant area not far from the capital.

They hadn’t entered the capital but were waiting there.

After carefully sensing it, Emperor Xuanwu found the number of these people to be so large that even he couldn’t count them.

Moreover, not only that, each one of them possessed strength of the Manifest Saint Realm, and there were quite a few experts of the Heavenly Human Realm.

From these Heavenly Human Realm cultivators, he even sensed the same Celestial Human Realm Perfection as his own.

These people hadn’t come in but were waiting on the vacant ground.

He knew that perhaps this had something to do with Qin An, so he turned his gaze to Qin An.

Without needing Emperor Xuanwu to say more, Qin An immediately provided an answer.

After explaining the course of events, he said, "I told them to wait outside because, if they all came in, it would surely cause a commotion, which is very unfavorable for the currently stable Daqian Kingdom."

"Thus, I let them wait outside, explained the situation to Your Majesty, and let Your Majesty arrange specific personnel to liaise with the cultivators of the fragmented worlds, which would be much smoother."

He has always been meticulous. Though he often appears rash, he is actually thorough in considering many aspects, hence these matters are considered.

Emperor Xuanwu’s heart was filled with joy, and he clenched his fists: "Good, good, good, your considerations are very thoughtful. Next, you can rest; leave all follow-up matters to me, and I will ensure everything is properly handled."

This time, Qin An could be said to have achieved monumental accomplishments, not only persuading those fragmented worlds not to aid the Heavenly Demon but also bringing their cultivators over.

This is a powerful reinforcement, and together they are even stronger than the Daqian Kingdom.

With these reinforcements, dealing with the Heavenly Demon in the future will be much easier.

Qin An nodded slightly, without saying much, and then stood up: "Your Majesty, everything is done, and I will be entering closed cultivation once again."

He returned with the intent to seize time for closed cultivation, as early cultivation means earlier enhancement of strength, to face more dangers.

Now he has the time, and naturally does not intend to waste it.

Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly: "Alright, I will take care of the following matters; you can rest assured."

Now Qin An has settled everything, and if he cannot handle the rest, it would be a waste of Qin An’s painstaking efforts.

Without saying more, Qin An then rose and left the Imperial Study.

Soon, only Emperor Xuanwu remained in this place.

After a brief contemplation, Emperor Xuanwu didn’t hesitate and also left the Imperial Study, heading toward where the group of experts was.

Next, he has to meticulously plan how to deal with the dogs dispatched by the Heavenly Demon, to win a significant victory.

Afterward, no one remained in the Imperial Study, and it fell into a long silence.

...

Meanwhile, in the world of the Heavenly Demon, the Ancestral Mechanical Emperor along with a bunch of Heavenly Demons were gathered, discussing their respective outcomes.

After the last Heavenly Demon shared its results, the Ancestral Mechanical Emperor slightly furrowed his brow.

"Half of the worlds are already empty. It seems this is Qin An’s doing. He must have gathered all those people back to the Daqian Kingdom, preparing for a decisive battle with the ones we dispatched!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

They are all smart people and know that what the Ancestral Mechanical Emperor said is true.

However, how should they proceed next?

This depends on the Ancestral Mechanical Emperor’s intention, as after all, this plan was proposed by him.

The Ancestral Mechanical Emperor wasted no time, taking a deep breath before he spoke: "We need to spend significant time connecting various worlds, aligning them with the world of the Daqian Kingdom so that our descent is possible."

"I know you’re waiting for a detailed plan, and my plan is very detailed while remaining simple; it consists of just one word."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to the Ancestral Mechanical Emperor, waiting for him to utter the next words.

The Ancestral Mechanical Emperor paused momentarily; his eyes gradually turned cold, resembling ice, inducing a shiver.

Then, without waiting for anyone to speak, the Ancestral Mechanical Emperor slowly stood up, waved his sleeves, and spoke words that made their hearts chill.

"Simple, just one word—kill!"

"Dispatch them over, and upon landing, immediately launch an attack on the Daqian Kingdom; I want everything in sight to turn into ruins, make the world of the Daqian Kingdom suffer an indescribable disaster and ensure that the so-called Savior loses his life in this catastrophe!"
