Earl Ji, Luo Lin, was only a hundred years old, the third son of the old leader of the Soul Wolf Clan. He was rewarded by Emperor Shun for his contributions, and was awarded Ji Mountain territory as Earl Ji.
Earl Ji Luo Lin's contribution couldn't be compared with Ji Hao's, and Ji Mountain certainly couldn't be compared with Ji Hao's. Ji Mountain's territory was only five-thousand miles in radius. Luo Lin was supported by his father, and sent out a group of clansmen to build the territory. After tens of years of hard work, the number of his clansmen grew to around ten-million.
Luo Lin had four sons, and he divided his clansmen into five clans. Each of his four sons led around a million clansmen to guard the four clansmen, while his own clan led around six-million clansmen to rest around Ji Mountain. Bit by bit, they accumulated the power of their clansmen and strengthened their own clansmen.
Ji Mountain was eight-hundred meters tall, extending for hundreds of miles. Ji Mountain City, the main city built by Earl Ji, was located on the southern side of Ji Mountain. Ji Mountain City was surrounded by water, and millions of acres of fertile farmlands, including orchards and corrals. Ji Mountain was indeed a good place for people to live and work in.
Shrill howls abruptly broke the quietness of the morning. A few staggering silhouettes leaped over the fence wall of Ji Mountain City, screaming and yelling as they ran towards the southwest direction of Pu Ban City. After less than two-hundred meters, along with shrill swishing noises, tens of arrows swished over from the fence wall and fiercely pierced into the bodies of these few people.
The arrows pierced into their bodies, and the few people fell to the ground. They wailed in pain and pulled the arrows out. Their blood power surged inside their bodies, and the strong sense of power released from their Senior Magi spread out. Their wounds healed speedily and were about to heal.
All of a sudden, clouds of black smoke spurted out from their wounds. Dirty blood splashed all over their bodies. Their blood power was dispelled instantly, and their wounds burst open, expanding to the size of fists. Within the black smoke, their wounds started rotting and expanding quickly. Soon, the rotting reached their bones, and their bones started rotting as well. Within a blink of an eye, even their marrow was exposed.
Over ten heavily armored elite warriors leaped up from the fence wall, leaving arcs in the air and landing heavily beside the few old people, who had been running away. They raised their axes and neatly chopped off the heads of the few old people, then kicked their heads far away, as if they were kicking a ball.
"Old bastards who don't know what's good for them. The Crown Prince has personally spoken, yet they still want to defend this foundation?" A burly man with a curly beard laughed hideously and said, "Xiao Mountain is not big, but it is, after all, a territory granted by the Human Emperor. It can be considered a piece of juicy meat. Now that you've gained the loyalty of Xiao Mountain, your strength has increased yet again. "
Inside Ji Mountain City, blood flowed like a river. Tens of elders and commanders who were loyal to Luo Lin were lying in a pool of blood. Large groups of Ji Mountain people stood in front of the ancestral temple where they worshiped their ancestors' souls, looking at Luo Sheng and Lie Mountain Xu, who were standing in front of the gate of the ancestral temple in fear.
Luo Sheng was Luo Lin's cousin, so Ji Mountain had nothing to do with him.
Luo Lin died in the battle in Chi Ban Mountain, but he still had three sons and a large group of grandsons. Before these male descendants died out, Luo Sheng would never be able to lay his eyes on Ji Mountain territory. This territory would never fall into his hands.
However, Lie Mountain Xu suddenly arrived. He made his attitude clear and fully supported Luo Sheng to become the new Earl Ji, allowing him to control the entire Ji Mountain territory. Luo Sheng, who had been living and waiting for death in the Soul Wolf Clan, didn't have any real power, and wasn't talented at all, was overjoyed. He immediately recognized Lie Mountain Xu as his master, and eagerly came to Ji Mountain City with a few trusted subordinates to seize the power.
After a series of arguments, clan elders who were loyal to Luo Lin gave an order to expel Luo Sheng, who wanted to occupy the territory of Ji Mountain. As a result, Luo Sheng was slaughtered by the elite warriors brought by Lie Mountain Xu, and almost all Ji Mountain leaders were slaughtered.
Only three elders of Ji Mountain territory were left kneeling in front of Lie Mountain Xu with a proud look on their faces, loudly flattering Lie Mountain Xu.
"Luo Sheng is a good leader!" Lie Mountain Xu was sitting on a large chair cast from pure gold, fiddling with an exquisite wine cup made from seven-treasures glazed in his hand, and sneered slowly and unhurriedly.
"Prince, you are absolutely right. From now on, Minister Luo Sheng is our new leader. We will write a letter to the Pu Ban City right now, letting Leader Luo Sheng inherit the position of Earl Ji."
"Prince, you don't have to worry. The Pu Ban City has never stepped into the affairs of our 'earls'. As long as we, the elders, write a letter together, the new Earl Ji will be taken. There won't be any problem."
"In the future, we will be loyal and diligent in assisting our leader, and make Ji Mountain more prosperous. Prince, please take care of us in the future! "
The three Ji Mountain elders flattered Lie Mountain Xu like a tide, ceaselessly flattering Lie Mountain Xu, and from time to time, they would also boast about Luo Sheng.
Luo Sheng was an ordinary looking man, with an ordinary body shape, and not even a trace of heroism could be sensed from him. But now, he had even squeezed his eyes into a pair of curved lines. He was tens of years older than Luo Lin, but he had only broken into the Senior Magus level thirty years ago. This kind of talent could only be described as garbage.
After thirty years of severe cultivation, Luo Sheng had only awakened fifteen meridians and awakened a hundred and seventy-eight Magus Acupoints. This kind of cultivation was even lower than the apprentices of the Magi Palace. Among his peers of the Soul Wolf Clan, he was definitely one of the weakest.
Normally, he liked to eat, drink and have fun. Relying on his father, who was an elder of the clan, he bullied ordinary clansmen, and slept on women's bellies every day. He probably wouldn't be able to do anything for the rest of his life. Abruptly, Lie Mountain Xu came to him and made him the new Earl Ji of Ji Mountain. During these two days, Luo Sheng felt like he was in a dream when he walked. He felt like he was floating in the air, and didn't even know where he was.
Five-thousand miles of territory, tens of millions of people, over a hundred thousand elite warriors, all would be under his control from now on. Even his father, who was an elder of the Soul Wolf Clan, didn't have as much power as he did. Among all his brothers, the one who had the highest achievement was only the ten-thousand-man leader of the Soul Wolf Clan, which couldn't be compared with Luo Sheng, who was now Earl Ji.
In the future, even if he met the clan leader of the Soul Wolf Clan, who was his own grandfather, he could still straighten his back and not bow to him!
Because he was Earl Ji, Earl Ji, who was conferred the title by Emperor Shun, the human emperor. Earl Ji was allowed to enter the Town Hall and discuss the important affairs of the humankind with Emperor Shun. Even though this' Earl 'of his was the weakest among all' Earls' and 'Marquis', in terms of territory and clan power, he was still an important minister of the humankind!
He was an 'Earl', an 'Earl' with his own territory! The sanctity and independence of his territory was protected by the entire alliance of human clans, and no clan was allowed to have a single warrior intrude into his territory!
Luo Sheng gave a big grin, squeezing his eyes into a pair of eye-catching yellow-colored teeth in his mouth.
Looking down at the over a hundred thousand Ji Mountain people gathered in front of the ancestral temple, Luo Sheng felt that he had already reached the peak of his life, that his entire soul had been sublimated.
Behind Lie Mountain Xu's armchair, Qing Mei, who was wearing a coarse long shirt, was holding a bottle with her left hand and a plum branch with her right hand, scornfully looking at Luo Sheng and sneered.
"Uncle Priest Corpse is right. These human beings are stupid and ignorant. When we teach them the great Dao, we only need to be brave and diligent. Why do we need to be as cautious as before?"
Luo Sheng, who had a big grin on his face, turned around, bowed to Lie Mountain Xu in a flattering way and said, "Prince, that dead brother of mine still has three little kids and a nest of little kids. You see, we have to take care of all of them."
Lie Mountain Xu smiled faintly and prepared to say something. But suddenly, a bird caw came from the sky, following which, a pair of large eagles swiftly flew over.
