#2039 - Xiao family exterminated

On the distant battlefield, the Celestial God powerhouses of the three great aristocratic families were roaring with heart-wrenching fury.

They were fighting with all their might, trying every possible way to escape, but they could never succeed.

The three Origin Beginning Incarnations each firmly suppressed a Celestial God.

Even the Celestial God who only wanted to escape, never confronting them head-on, was still covered in wounds, beaten half to death.

This was only because the Origin Beginning Incarnations were in the mood to play with them.

As for the remaining two Celestial God powerhouses, the two Celestial Gods of the Lanling royal family intercepted them at the first opportunity.

Subsequently, Jun Wuxie chased after them, punching them one after another, almost blasting the two Celestial Gods to pieces in the air.

With a wave of his sleeve, he took the shattered bodies of the two Celestial Gods into his Blessed Cave, and then had people collect the heads of the Celestial Gods.

On the Origin Beginning Incarnation's side, the three Celestial Gods were already on their last breath, slumped on the ground, struggling to get up.

Jun Wuxie stepped forward, and the Origin Beginning Incarnations turned into essence blood and merged into his body.

The three Celestial God powerhouses looked at him with extreme horror, "You… who exactly are you…"

They couldn't understand how there could be such a heaven-defying person in the world.

The other party was clearly not in the Celestial God Realm, yet he crushed them with overwhelming force.

"Someone who eliminates tumors from the world."

This was Jun Wuxie's response, and then he used his fingers to conjure a sword energy that slashed off the heads of the three people, and collected their bodies.

The two Celestial God powerhouses of the royal family were dumbfounded.

Today, their minds had suffered an indescribable shock.

This young man was simply a Celestial God life harvester!

What Celestial God was invincible, what peerless powerhouse.

In front of him, they seemed so ridiculous and vulnerable!

"Lord… Lord Divine Jun."

They originally wanted to use the original title of Young Master Jun, but as soon as they opened their mouths, they felt that it was wrong, so they changed it to Lord Divine Jun.

"What are you looking at me for? Go and cut off the heads of the three guys in that mountain wall and bring back their bodies."

Jun Wuxie didn't have a good look on his face for the two Celestial Gods of the royal family.

These two guys still had speculative thoughts until today, before the start of the Celestial God battle, and were weighing the pros and cons in their hearts.

"Oh, okay."

The two Celestial Gods were guilty, knowing that their thoughts could not be hidden from Jun Wuxie, so they quickly ran to dig out the three Celestial Gods who had been pierced through the chest by the Origin Beginning Incarnation, losing their heart and lungs, and were seriously injured and dying, from the mountain wall.

They brought the three Celestial Gods to Jun Wuxie, cut off their heads, and offered their bodies.

Jun Wuxie took the bodies into the Blessed Cave, untied the two heads from his waist, and threw them to the royal family's Celestial God, saying: "After you go back, hang all the Celestial God's heads on the south-facing city gate of the imperial capital."

After saying that, he stepped into the air and left, and soon came to Nalan Jingyi's side.

Feng Ling was fighting with King Lanling.

King Lanling was covered in sword wounds, covered in blood, and in a state of embarrassment. He had no power to fight back.

From time to time, he let out heart-wrenching roars, full of unwillingness.

Jun Wuxie stretched out his hand and sucked a war spear from the ground, and threw it out casually.

The war spear made a sharp sound of breaking through the air, pierced through the sky in an instant, and with a poof, pierced through King Lanling's shoulder blade, nailing him to the ground.

"Ah!! Jun Wuxie, this king is not convinced! You are an outsider, this king is not convinced! This battle for imperial power, this king does not admit defeat!"

King Lanling shouted hysterically.

Feng Ling stepped forward and raised her foot to step on King Lanling's face, but retracted her foot in the air.

Stepping down like this would make her soles dirty with King Lanling's old face.

She waved her sword and pierced through both of King Lanling's knees, causing him to let out a heart-wrenching scream.

"Qi Zhenshan, let the soldiers set up camp here.

You follow us into the city.

Tie King Lanling's hands up, tie him behind the chariot, drag him back to the imperial capital, and hang him on the city gate."

Jun Wuxie forcibly devoured King Lanling's Blessed Cave True Qi, causing him to let out a terrified and shrill scream.

"Yes, Master!"

Qi Zhenshan stepped forward. After Jun Wuxie finished devouring, he pulled out the war spear and dragged King Lanling away.

King Lanling and the rebels were defeated, and the news spread, and the morale of the rebels in other directions of the imperial capital collapsed.

Although some generals loyal to King Lanling forcibly asked them to attack the imperial capital and rescue King Lanling, no one was willing to listen to the order.

This was clearly asking them to die.

Not only would they die, but they would also implicate their families, and they would never be able to hold their heads up in future generations.

Repenting and reforming, and being loyal to the Emperor and Lord Divine Jun was the wisest choice.

The Emperor was wise, and Lord Divine Jun was naturally gifted and divine. The dynasty would surely embark on an unprecedented era of prosperity and glory.

Some generals and a large number of soldiers formed a battle formation, suppressing the generals who forced them to attack the imperial capital, capturing them all alive, sealing their cultivation, and tying them up.

Subsequently, those people were used as a certificate of surrender.

The crisis of the dynasty was completely resolved.

The internal power struggle that several emperors had been unable to resolve for generations was declared over.

King Lanling was dragged through the streets, and countless people along the way threw rotten eggs, stones, and rotten vegetable leaves at him.

Some people even splashed him with feces.

During the long years when King Lanling controlled power, people suffered unspeakably.

All kinds of livelihood material channels were controlled by King Lanling, and most of the industries were monopolized by him.

The prices of various materials remained high.

You had to buy them.

Only the Lanling King Mansion's industries were selling them, and they could not be obtained from other channels.

In the end, King Lanling was hung on the city gate in the imperial capital.

Near the city gate, there were dense crowds of people, using various things to frantically smash him in turn.

King Lanling let out a shrill scream.

It turned out that he was so hated.

He had never thought that one day he would be reduced to being humiliated and trampled on by ordinary people.

The dignified head of the top aristocratic family, with his own cultivation in the Half-Step Celestial God Realm, had fallen to this point.

On the city gate, in addition to King Lanling hanging, twelve Celestial God heads hanging in a higher position also attracted people's attention.

Those were Celestial God powerhouses!

Celestial God represented peerlessness, represented dominance, stood on the clouds, and looked down on all living beings.

Now, a full twelve Celestial Gods had their heads taken off and hung above the city gate.

Lord Divine Jun was too strong!

With Lord Divine Jun's dynasty, what forces in the world could be enemies?

"Your ministers welcome Your Majesty and Lord Divine Jun back!"

In front of the palace, a group of ministers knelt down together, their voices loud, but how could they not hear a bit of unease?

"Hmph!"

Nalan Jingyi did not let them rise, but instead snorted coldly and walked into the palace with Jun Wuxie.

The ministers were as quiet as cicadas, turning their directions in a kneeling posture, respectfully lowering their heads.

The Prime Minister got up and winked at some of the officials.

Those officials got up one after another and followed him towards the palace hall.

Seeing the Prime Minister and others leave, the remaining ministers hesitated.

They didn't know what the Emperor was thinking, and when the anger in her heart would subside.

They were not afraid of how the Emperor would treat them.

They believed that as long as they did not act, the Emperor should forgive them.

After all, they were all in important positions, and many affairs of the dynasty needed them to handle.

Could Your Majesty not remove all of them?

If that were the case, the affairs of the dynasty would be chaotic.

After thinking about it, they finally decided to kneel here.

If the Emperor wanted them to continue to handle the affairs of the dynasty in their positions, then she would naturally let them enter the hall.

In this way, they could turn passivity into initiative.

……

At this time, in the palace hall, after the Prime Minister and others knelt down, they mentioned the group of people outside.

"They are all old subordinates of King Lanling, and they have followed King Lanling's lead over the years.

They have not been less corrupt in their respective important positions, and each of them is probably rich in oil.

Now, they are actually playing tricks with Your Majesty, which is even more unforgivable!"

The Prime Minister was very angry.

"Prime Minister, there is no need to be angry. Do you have any candidates here to take over those positions?"

The Prime Minister was stunned, and then said: "Returning to Your Majesty, if it is necessary to have someone to take over, there are indeed people.

However, after all, they lack corresponding experience, and the handling of affairs may cause chaos in a short period of time…"

"It's okay. The Prime Minister can arrange people to those departments and let them familiarize themselves with other identities first.

As for taking over, let's talk about it in a few days.

I am a little tired from the long journey. Prime Minister, you can all retreat."

Nalan Jingyi waved her hand.

"Jun Lang, the Xiao family, how do you want to deal with them?"

After the Prime Minister left, Nalan Jingyi looked at Jun Wuxie.

"Feng Ling, the Xiao family is left to you. You can handle it however you think it should be handled."

"Yes, Young Master!"

Feng Ling immediately left with the Ten Phoenix Guards.

Then, they found Qi Zhenshan and transferred troops from the army to surround the entire Xiao family.

At night, the sound of swords and soldiers rang out inside the Xiao family.

The next morning, only a pile of ashes remained in the entire Xiao family, and all the buildings were burned to the ground in the fire.

People saw this scene and could not help but sigh and sigh.

An ancient family with tens of thousands of years of inheritance, one of the strongest forces in the world, was gone, leaving only dozens of miles of ruins and ashes.

All night, the Xiao family was surrounded by the army, and even a fly could hardly fly out.

Now, the entire Xiao family was silent, and not a single figure could be seen.

Everyone knew that the Xiao family had been exterminated.

But people did not sympathize with the Xiao family.

The crime of treason was originally a crime of punishing the nine clans.

The Xiao family deserved it.

The next day, the president and middle and high-level people of the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce disappeared.

The people of Junyue Pavilion took over the Chamber of Commerce.

In addition, similar things happened to several other major chambers of commerce and firms in the dynasty, and they were all controlled by Junyue Pavilion.

On the same day, the prices of various basic livelihood materials suddenly plummeted by 70-80%, returning to the correct position for people's livelihood needs.

Several days later, Nalan Jingyi announced a 50% reduction in imperial taxes, a comprehensive improvement in the treatment of generals and soldiers in the army, and an elevation of the status and honor of soldiers.

……

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, two years had passed.

During these two years, Jun Wuxie researched a small, rapid-firing rune crossbow with extremely strong penetrating power.

He recruited a large number of Divine Inscription Masters, using profound rune knowledge as bait, attracting Divine Inscription Masters from all states to come and join him.

These Divine Inscription Masters were astonished by his runes, regarding him as an idol.

As they saw more and more profound runes beyond their comprehension in Jun Wuxie's possession,

the Divine Inscription Masters' admiration for him gradually turned into faith.

With a large number of Divine Inscription Masters, the manufacturing speed of small rune rapid-firing crossbows, rune armor, and rune war machines was greatly increased.

Now, all the soldiers of the entire imperial dynasty have been equipped with rune armor.

More than ten thousand rune war machines have been manufactured, and nearly a hundred million troops have been equipped with small rune rapid-firing crossbows.

This speed was already very fast.

But for him, he still felt unsatisfied.

Therefore, he created a Rune Dao Academy, recruiting people with talent in Rune Dao from the world to come and cultivate.

There were many rune steles in the Rune Dao Academy.

They were all filled with various levels of runes and Rune Dao cultivation annotations, various interpretations, experience insights, and so on that he had left behind.

For Rune Dao practitioners, any one of these things was a priceless treasure.

He trained a large number of Saint Inscription Masters into Divine Inscription Masters.

During these two years, Nalan Jingyi broke through her realm, and so did Feng Ling.

Both of them are now in the Half-Step Heavenly God Realm.

As for Zhu Yuan's realm, she broke through in Yushan City on the frontier that year.

With the medicinal pills from the Heaven-Given Battle competition, cultivation was very fast.

In those three months, she broke through to the Extreme Heavenly Position.

In the past two years, she has relied on Divine Pills to cultivate from the Extreme Heavenly Position to the Absolute Heavenly Position.

Since there were only two Divine Pills, her realm has also stopped at the Absolute Heavenly Position.

During this later period, Zhu Yuan has been accumulating her strength, preparing to break into the Extreme Realm domain.

On this day, in the imperial court, an imperial decree was issued, kicking off the prelude to the Lanling Army's expansion of territory.

Qi Zhenshan was appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Expedition, leading an army of 200 million to conquer the Langya and Yingchuan Dynasties.

The army was divided into two routes, launching simultaneous attacks on the two major dynasties.

The army rode on Divine Spirit Boats, riding the wind and breaking through the clouds, marching mightily.

In the past two years, Jun Wuxie personally refined a large number of Divine Spirit Boats, including military boats for marching and small boats for a small number of people to use as transportation.

……

Inside a pavilion in the back garden of the palace.

"When have you scheduled the final match of the Heaven-Given Battle?"

Jun Wuxie asked the Jinya sub-body in front of him.

Calculating the time, there was less than a year left until the state competition.

So, how long after the state competition would the final event be held?

"The final match of the Heaven-Given Battle is scheduled to be held half a year after the state competition.

The Heaven-Given Mountains are too far away and the journey is dangerous, so we can only use a guiding method to avoid accidents.

Half a year is left for the winners of the state competition to use medicinal pills to improve their realm."

Jun Wuxie nodded.

In that case, there was only a little over a year left until the final event.

When the time comes, he would enter that mysterious secret realm, investigate its secrets, and then it would be time to go back.

During this period, the imperial army would be sufficient to conquer the two major dynasties of Langya and Yingchuan.

Since coming to the Ultimate Land, he had been in this world for many years.

The outside world was constantly changing, and he didn't know how things were these years.

"Husband, how do you plan to take them away when the time comes?

Will you use the Divine Spirit Boat to carry them to the exit?"

"No, when the time comes, you will move the entire Ultimate Secret Realm world to the world space where the Liming Dynasty is located.

In this way, when they come out, they will be in the Liming Dynasty, the time inside is the same as outside, and they can freely enter and exit.

It is also good to let the people of the imperial dynasty come to this world to cultivate and improve their realm.

The Dao rhythm here makes it ten million times easier to break through to the Divine Realm than in the Upper Realm.

However, you need to protect the resources of this world with order.

Otherwise, I am afraid that too many people will come in, causing long-term irreversible damage."

Jun Wuxie was worried that the people who came in would excessively exploit resources, leading to an imbalance in the resource ecosystem.

"Well, then I will place this world in a space parallel to the Liming Imperial Capital when the time comes, and establish the exit inside the Imperial Capital.

Even if there is free entry and exit, it is better to add some restrictions.

After all, this world is much more dangerous than the Upper Realm.

We need to screen, with a minimum realm restriction, so that not just anyone can come in.

What does Husband think?"

"Do as you see fit. You can set up restrictions at the entrance of the world, whatever realm limit you want."

Jun Wuxie did not object.

Jinya's sub-body was right.

People always have a strong sense of curiosity.

But curiosity often leads to eternal doom.

Setting a realm limit can block most curious people, setting a threshold for them.
