After convincing Tai Chi and the others, there was still the abdication ceremony.
This was an official ceremony to make the old rulers of the seven countries abdicate and then the Da Qian people confer titles.
Everything was handled by Zifang who was a Buddhist and he actually did it well.
After this step, the Yuanren seven countries were truly under the Da Qian.
Just a few days later, countless people had gathered at the foot of Yuanjing Palace.
Some people brought various treasures over to exchange for some money. Most of them came to join the 3 factions that Zong Shou mentioned.
The current Yuanren world was like the cloud world 20 thousand years ago. Be it martial path or spiritual cultivation, they were all really shallow. Even if they wanted to cultivate, there was nowhere to learn.
This time Zong Shou opened a door for them without any signs.
No matter if it was real or fake, they had to try.
The bustling and bustling below the Yuanjing Palace made the elders of the Kongqi and Danquan sects delighted.
The two sects specialized in artifact crafting and pill refining and exchanging spiritual items was cheap. This time there were many blacksmiths and pill refiners who followed. In a short few days, they earned a crazy amount.
Naturally, there were also people who came for the wealth of the mortal world. What cultivators didn't care about the most were precisely these things.
As for accepting disciples, the Kenzō Sect Cang Shengdao and the few other people in charge were a little against it at the start.
But once, by chance, a cultivator of the Wujue Villa actually chose an extremely talented young man from a group of refugees that rushed over from nearby, and made him enter the sect.
The entire Yuanjing Palace was instantly in an uproar.
The difference between the people of the Yuanren world and the cloud world was really small.
Even if there was a difference, it was just some meridians and positions which could be easily changed.
As for many other areas like comprehension, bones, heart etc, they were all the same.
The soul was the three spiritual and seven physical souls, there was no difference.
In other words, the people of this world might have a chance to reach the Saint Realm.
Even if his future achievements were limited, he would still be a great addition to Cang Shengdao and the Kenzō Sect, which were lacking in manpower.
In just a few days, his reluctance had turned into enthusiasm, and he was willing to give it his all.
They even quarreled in front of Zong Shou over the disciple quota.
After more than ten days, he had indeed obtained dozens of extremely talented disciples.
Unfortunately, most of the people who were sent to Yuanjing Palace at this time were the children of nobles, and they were all side branches that were not valued.
The leaders of the seven nations wanted to curry favor with the Yuanjing Palace and wanted to give it a try. But they were also afraid of taking the risk, so they only sent the concubine-born children.
This action made Tai Chi and the other Spirit Realm Elders of Cang Shengdao very unhappy.
Thus, they decided to be like the Buddhist sects and set up branches in various spiritual lands within the seven nations to make it easier for them to search.
However, at this time, they hadn't gained a stable footing, which was why they temporarily gave up.
A month later would be the true test.
However, if it was before, the three factions only had the thought that they didn't care about this Yuanren World and that it was enough to just scour it.
However, at this moment, they were truly prepared to fight to the death.
"They say that heroes are born in times of chaos, heroes are born in times of danger. The Yuanren World is in deep trouble and I can look on from the sidelines. In your Yuanren World, there are too many talented people who can succeed in the cultivation path. They aren't inferior to our Cloud World 100 years ago … "
Above the Yuanjing Palace, Zong Shou leaned on the railing and stood there. He looked excitedly at the huge market below that was starting to take shape.
In the past, there were only some houses and inns that were convenient for people who came to worship Jiujing to stay.
At this moment, there were many houses, 100,000 feet from north to south. There were hundreds of thousands of people gathered here.
At this moment, the person who was listening to him speak was a 30-year-old male.
It was the person who Zong Shou paid attention to that day in the main hall of the Yuanjing Palace.
At this moment, he was really calm as he stood behind Zong Shou. His actions weren't arrogant or servile, and he was also polite.
When he heard this, he shook his head slightly, "I don't know whether or not our Yuanren World has many talents. However, I know that this time if Celestial Ruler didn't show mercy, these people would be mediocre for the rest of their lives. At most, in 70-80 years, they would turn into a cup of dust. Celestial Ruler's kindness is akin to giving them a new lease on life. Our Yuanren World people will be eternally grateful! "
His tone was filled with heartfelt respect.
"Is that so? Does this include you, Zhuang Yu? "
Zong Shou laughed and then he heard a moment of silence behind him. He didn't care and continued to ask, "I heard that during these 10 years, the eastern front of the Yuanren Front was on the eastern front. The entire eastern front of Great Lin is maintained by you, Zhuang Yu, alone? Jiujing relied on you a lot? He is one of the few famous generals in the Yuanren World … "
Great Lin was beside Xuan Country, its land area was slightly bigger, having eight provinces of land.
However, due to a large portion of its borders being in the east, it had many wars. It was the weakest out of the seven countries.
However, this situation changed 10 years ago.
This Zhuang Yu appeared out of nowhere, using the identity of a commoner to stand out in a huge battle. At 24 years old, he led 30 thousand troops and defeated enemies four times his size.
Following which, he was unstoppable and won consecutively. It caused the countries under Jiudu Xianting Hong Jiuchen to not dare to easily invade the west.
It also made Jiujing delighted, even making an exception for him and bestowing him with a few outer region cultivation techniques.
"I don't dare to accept the title of Celestial Ruler!"
Zhuang Fan said expressionlessly, "However, I do have some ability to lead troops."
His words weren't filled with arrogance but with confidence.
Zong Shou nodded his head slightly, "That is indeed the case! After I found out, I specially checked your battle records. However, I noticed something really interesting. In the recent 3 years, you had a chance to win 4 consecutive battles. However, you restrained yourself, retreating and not fighting when you gained some small gains … "
Zhuang Fan's gaze was like a needle, stabbing right into Zong Shou's back.
Zong Shou didn't care at all, acting like he didn't notice anything.
"Are you trying to raise the enemy for your own sake or are you worried that Jiujing will get rid of you? Or is it that Zhuang Fan suddenly became kind? "
Zhuang Fan wanted to argue but Zong Shou's cold gaze suddenly looked back at him, filled with a cold disdain.
"If you want to argue, you don't have to. You should know that people like you and me only need to believe in the truth. Then, evidence and the like don't matter. You can hide from Jiujing but you can't hide from me! "
Cold sweat instantly appeared on Zhuang Fan's forehead. A moment later, he cupped his fists and said solemnly, "Who knew that Ruler was also an expert in the art of war! There is indeed such a matter, however I had no choice … "
"No choice? You were ambitious, right? Training troops in the dark and hiding the news. Zhuang Fan, what do you want? "
Zong Shou burst out into a laugh, filled with a cold intent, "With your talent, you are 10 times better than He Daoren. The army you hold is 3 times that of him. Now, you hate me in your heart. Not only did he not choose you to be the Ruler of the 7 countries, but he also took away your military power? "
Zhuang Fan's body shook, his face ashen white. He gritted his teeth and said, "That Jiujing is tyrannical in our Yuanren World, taking what he wants. Many of my family members have died because of this. Even if I want to rebel, it is right! " If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
