#179 - Thirteen Sons of Heaven - I am the villain in the book

[Detection: System prerequisites are missing]

[System Shop is available in the current state]

[System is automatically updating, current progress 99.9%]

[.]

After more than twenty days, the progress has finally gone from 0.1% to the current 99.9%. It will be completed in less than a quarter of an hour.

Wei Changtian has no idea what the system will become after the update. He only hopes that it will be the same as before, and not have any mandatory "you will die if you don't complete it" missions.

But if it really does that... then screw it!

Shaking his head and closing the system interface, with a thought, he summoned the Xuantian Sword from the Starry Sky scabbard.

The black long sword hovered quietly in the air, as deep as a black hole.

Wei Changtian had tried to make the Xuantian Sword recognize him as its master before, but of course, he failed.

As for that wisp of remnant soul, let him continue to stay in the sword.

With his current power, how could there be a situation where he needs to trade his lifespan?

"Crack!"

Wei Changtian suddenly heard the sound of firecrackers in the distance.

And with the first sound, the crackling sound, like a parrot learning to speak, followed closely behind.

Like boiling water reaching its boiling point, Shu Prefecture City suddenly boiled, and even fireworks roared into the night sky, and then exploded into petals of flowers.

"Ah! Fireworks!"

Yuan'er pushed open the door of the main hall and rushed out first, shouting loudly, followed by Xu Qingwan and others.

The women stood in the small courtyard, wearing colorful cloaks, all looking up at the flowers in the night sky.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The fireworks illuminated their cheeks, and there were happy smiles in the flickering light.

It's just that...

"Shua!"

The Xuantian Sword disappeared into the Starry Sky scabbard, and Wei Changtian sat at the table and took a deep breath.

[Ding!]

[System update complete]

[Detected that the host has unused system points: 2530. These points will be automatically retained]

[The System Shop has been updated! The method of obtaining system points has been updated!]

[The host can obtain system points by plundering the luck of the "Son of Heaven" in this world!]

[Note 1: The host will explore the method of plundering luck by himself. The system will reward system points based on the proportion of luck plundered after the event]

[Note 2: After killing the "Son of Heaven", you can get all his Heavenly Dao luck and huge system point rewards]

[Note 3: .]

[There are thirteen "Sons of Heaven" in this world. Some information will now be disclosed to the host]

[1: Tiandao Palace, Outer Disciple, Ye Xuan]

[2: Lingmen Temple, Sweeping Monk of the Sutra Pavilion, Lin Fan]

[3: Great Hui Dynasty, Commoner, Chu An]

[4: Great Qian Dynasty, Yamen Runner of the Demon Slayer Division, Xu Quan]

[5: .]

[.]

One unfamiliar dynasty and sect after another, one name after another filled with the aura of the protagonist.

Wei Changtian never expected the system to be so fierce, directly throwing out thirteen Sons of Heaven for him to kill.

And more importantly, he had never even heard of most of these people, or rather, these places. They were not mentioned in the original book either.

Except for the last two people.

Far East, Qingzhou City.

Like Shu Prefecture City, Qingzhou City is also very lively at this moment.

Qingzhou is near the sea, and several villages outside the east of the city are almost all fishing villages.

This year's grain harvest is abundant, and the price of grain is naturally cheap, and the fishermen have some spare money in their hands.

They are often in the waves, and these people pay the most attention to peace, so this year they also spent extravagantly and hung red lanterns on each fishing boat.

The fishing boats stretching for several miles along the coast are all red, and from a distance, they reflect the coast into a hazy red color.

But this red light cannot illuminate the darkness on Fish Island.

"Splash! Splash! Splash!"

Huge waves hit the reef, and a naked woman sat in front of a small wooden house with her knees in her arms, staring straight in the direction of Qingzhou City.

"Why hasn't my husband come back yet?"

"He said half a month, but it's been more than a month now."

"Except for eating fish, my husband has never lied to me."

"Husband, I will allow you to eat fish in the future, please come back..."

"Please come back..."

The woman did not know that her husband had been buried in the Yanyun Mountains, which were thousands of miles away, but her喃喃自语 was already full of despair.

The cold sea breeze whistled past, blowing the dried fish hanging under the eaves, shaking for a while.

This was originally Wu Tianqing's "evidence" of secretly eating fish, but now it probably has no chance to "testify in court".

"Husband, I will go find you..."

"You always say that people's hearts are unpredictable outside, and that once I go out, people will see that I am a demon, and my head will be chopped off and taken to the Hanging Mirror Division to receive a reward..."

"But I can't wait for you."

"When I find you, wherever you go, I will follow."

"Don't leave me behind, okay..."

"..."

The more the woman spoke, the sadder she became, and crystal tears fell down her cheeks, like round pearls.

The moonlight was bright, and the turbulent waves gradually stopped.

The endless sea surface suddenly slowly cracked open a huge crack, the gap was empty, and the water stopped flowing.

It felt as if some god had cut off the sea with a sword.

After a while, a soft red light suddenly swam out of the crack, swaying and heading straight for the wide-eyed woman.

Looking at the appearance of the red light, it was like a flying fish with wings.

Fish body and bird wings, the sound is like mandarin ducks.

"Ying, Winnowfish."

Capital, Imperial Palace.

Amber wine, golden foot cup, food like paintings, wine like springs, zither murmuring, bells jingling.

Civil and military officials were seated below, and Ning Yongnian raised his glass on the high platform.

Although according to the etiquette system, the emperor would also "seal the seal" and rest for a few days during the New Year, generally on New Year's Eve, the emperors of all dynasties would set up a banquet to celebrate with the officials.

In fact, it is the same as the annual meeting of many companies in the previous life. The boss takes this opportunity to commend outstanding employees, and the employees take this opportunity to flatter the boss.

By the way, summarize the gains and losses of this year, and set a goal for the coming year.

Da Ning had good weather this year, no strong enemies outside, no internal disasters, and a great harvest of food. Basically, except for the Liu-Wei dispute, there were no disturbances. It is no exaggeration to praise it as a "prosperous age".

It is hard to say how much this prosperous age has to do with the rulers, but in the mouths of these court officials, it has naturally all become Ning Yongnian's credit.

Copies of memorials praising Ning Yongnian were passed to Li Huaizhong, and then read aloud by the chief eunuch.

The ever-changing praises were sincere and earnest, and the sound of bells and chimes was solemn and distant.

Under such a mood, even the two golden dragons carved on the eaves of the hall seemed to come alive, as if they were going to report the prosperity of the world to the gods in the heavenly palace.

And in order to welcome them, a gate to heaven was even opened in the dark night sky.

Gate to Heaven

"Tseng!"

Suddenly standing up, Ning Yongnian looked at the night sky in disbelief, his body trembled uncontrollably.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

The queen in phoenix clothes raised her head, her eyes a little puzzled.

"You, can't you see it?"

Ning Yongnian pointed to the gate of heaven that shot out ten thousand feet of golden light, and for a while, he even forgot the majesty of the emperor.

"Huh? What does Your Majesty want this concubine to see?"

"See..."

Ning Yongnian's tone stagnated, and when he looked up again, he was completely stunned.

It was a golden dragon.

A five-clawed golden dragon that was exactly the same as the one carved on the eaves of the hall and embroidered on the dragon robe, but was actually tumbling in the sky!

A real dragon appears in the world, and the world is unified!

Ning Yongnian stared blankly at the golden dragon swimming and soaring in the night sky, and then getting closer and closer to him...

"..."

"Your Majesty..."

After an unknown amount of time, Li Huaizhong's voice came from his ear.

"It's your turn to speak."

"."

The night wind howled, blowing the dragon robe.

Ning Yongnian turned his head to look at the civil and military officials standing at his feet, and after a long silence, he suddenly took a step forward.

"I will only say one sentence today!"

"I may still be in power for fifty years. In these fifty years, I will definitely lead the Da Ning soldiers to sweep the six directions and swallow the eight wildernesses! All within and without the mountains and rivers will crawl under my feet!"

"."

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

After three breaths, deafening shouts resounded throughout the palace.

"Long live the Emperor!"

Shu Prefecture.

"Dong dong dong ~"

"Young Master! There are fireworks outside! Aren't you coming out to see them?"

Yuan'er knocked on the window, her laughter as crisp as a bell.

Xu Qingwan, Yang Liushi, and Liang Qin all looked at the wooden window with anticipation, waiting for Wei Changtian to come out and share this joy with them.

It's just that there was no movement inside the wooden window for a long time.

"Brother Changtian may be busy..."

Liang Qin comforted herself with disappointment, while Xu Qingwan and Yang Liushi's eyes were a little worried.

But in the next moment.

"Here it comes! Here it comes!"

"What's so good about these broken fireworks."

Wei Changtian slowly walked out of the house, with a smile on his face, but his hands were clasped tightly behind his back.

[12: Da Ning Dynasty, East Sea Fish Demon, Yun Lian]

[13: Da Ning Dynasty, the current Emperor, Ning Yongnian]

"Sigh..."

"Damn it."
