Chapter 881 Conquering Xiqi (Happy New Year)
If one is not careful, the flames of war may spread to Hongjun himself. The karmic consequences caused by the war between the human and heavenly paths could definitely knock Hongjun down to the mortal realm. At that time, let alone whether he can keep his identity as the representative of the heavenly path, it will be a question whether he can keep his life!
After realizing that things were hopeless, Zi Xiao stopped causing trouble and instead found a secluded place to heal his wounds. After all, although his injuries were not fatal, he was always covered in wounds, and who knew when he might accidentally fall into a ditch!
With the issuance of the Emperor's edict, the feudal lords of the land finally understood why the Shang Dynasty so despised Xiqi. Although the human race of today is no longer as simple-minded as it was in ancient times, treasonous acts that betray the interests of the human race for personal gain are still highly despised!
After all, in the eyes of most humans, no matter how much infighting there is among them, it is still an internal matter for them. Submitting to the heavens would not only harm the interests of the human race, but would also leave an impression of weakness and incompetence on all living beings in the prehistoric world.
If the human race leaves an impression of weakness and incompetence on the masses, then the situation of the human race is very likely to become worse. You should know that even now, the human race has quasi-saint level powerhouses guarding and protecting the human race, but there are still many remote areas where the human race suffers from the bullying of those alien races and has no human rights whatsoever!
Relatively speaking, the Nine Provinces where the Yin Shang Dynasty was located was considered a safe haven and stronghold for the human race. After all, the human race's powerful figures mostly focused their energy on the Nine Provinces. Even if they wanted to help the suffering humans outside the Nine Provinces, it would be difficult for them to provide long-term protection.
Therefore, for humans outside the Nine Provinces, the high-ranking members of the human race generally choose to help if they are able to, and if they are not, then so be it, after all, the human race has such a vast territory and such a large number of people!
As for the enslavement of humans by other races, as long as the other races don't go too far, they choose to turn a blind eye. However, they still have to give the necessary warnings, otherwise it would be a bad thing if the other races thought that humans were weak and easy to bully!
Getting back to the main point, after losing Zixiao's help, Xiqi was quickly dealt with by the Yin Shang army! Grand Tutor Wen did not spare any of those heinous demons; they were all beheaded and their heads displayed to the public!
As for the Xiqi leadership led by Ji Fa, Wen Zhong did not make a decision on his own. Instead, he sent people to escort them back to Chaoge to await Emperor Xin's judgment!
As for Yang Jiao and the other Heavenly Generals and Western Sect disciples, Wen Zhong did not make things difficult for them and simply chose to release them. After all, apart from a very few Heavenly Generals, none of them were people that the human race would easily provoke!
As for the difficulties they caused when the Yin Shang attacked Xiqi, it is obvious to anyone with eyes to see what really happened without outsiders having to explain it. Therefore, instead of going through all the trouble of trying to judge them and offending this person and that person, it would be better to release them and leave behind a legacy of karma!
When Xiqi was destroyed and its territory was taken over by Yin Shang, the feudal lords, although they were very disgusted by the betrayal of the human race by the lineage of the Marquis of Xibo, also felt a sense of shared fate, as they were not sure whether Yin Shang would take action against them after annexing Xiqi and then unify the entire land of Kyushu!
But who would have thought that Di Xin had no intention of attacking them at all? After all, the conquest of Xiqi was justified. If a war were to break out for no reason, who knows if it would deplete the national fortune of Yin Shang!
After witnessing the formidable strength of the Shang Dynasty, the three marquises from the east, south, and north were completely submissive and dared not overstep their bounds in the slightest.
Ultimately, due to the mutual distrust between Di Xin and the three marquises, Di Xin and the other feudal lords got along well, and the national strength of Yin Shang flourished under Di Xin's rule, showing no signs of the Yin Shang entering its twilight years as the Heavenly Dao had claimed!
Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo, didn't have many days left to live; every day he lived was a day closer to death! Upon learning that Xiqi had been conquered by the Yin Shang, Ji Chang, the Marquis of Xibo, coughed up a mouthful of blood and died of anger!
