The war had just ended.
Dark clouds loomed over the city, and heavy rain fell. Amidst the thunder and lightning, blood mixed with the rain and seeped into the soil.
Unsurprisingly, the plants that absorbed the blood would grow lush, and there was even a chance that spiritual herbs would be born.
The people of Tian Nan City were still busy. The army, with the help of the powerhouses from Mount Buzhou, was still cleaning up the fish that escaped the net.
With the help of tens of thousands of powerhouses from Mount Buzhou and five Great Emperors guarding the city, Tian Nan City could be said to be as stable as Mount Tai.
However, Lan Yuheng began to worry about how to deal with the more than two million captives!
He began to regret not listening to Ye Tianze's order to kill them all.
However, this thought only flashed for a moment before it was completely dispelled. Not all of the more than two million people were cultivators, and there were even mortals.
Tian Nan City was not hell, and he was not a bloodthirsty demon. If he really killed them, it would hurt the reputation and fortune of the Tiannan State.
However, it was very difficult to settle these more than two million people, especially those cultivators.
However, Tian Nan City had experienced this before, and knew the pros and cons. It was just that they did not deal with so many captives at that time.
However, Lan Yuheng did not need to worry about this matter, because Zhao Mingli quickly joined in. For Zhao Mingli, as the general manager of the Tiannan State, this was a small matter.
He had just started to relax, and before he had time to be intimate with his wife, he found that Ye Tianze had already arrived at his residence.
Mu Shaoyun had brewed tea and stood to the side, waiting for a long time.
Mu Shaoyun was the former Sect Master of the Cloud Herding Sect. Ever since she was captured by Tian Nan City, Lan Yuheng had finally won her over.
Now, Lan Yuheng and Mu Shaoyun had a son.
The chubby child stood timidly behind Mu Shaoyun, looking timidly at Ye Tianze.
Seeing Lan Yuheng walk in, she hurriedly ran to Lan Yuheng's side and said, "Daddy."
Then, he looked at Ye Tianze as though he was complaining to his father that Ye Tianze had bullied his mother.
Lan Yuheng patted his head with heartache and carried him up. He walked in front of Ye Tianze and said respectfully, "Quickly pay your respects to the Monarch."
Ye Tianze almost spat out a mouthful of tea. He thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out why Lan Yuheng would be so obedient and marry Mu Shaoyun and have a child.
When he saw the current Lan Yuheng, he suddenly understood that Lan Yuheng was not a cultivation maniac. It seemed that in his opinion, having such a high cultivation base was not very useful.
Seeing that the child was about to bow to him, Ye Tianze hurriedly raised his hand and said, "No matter what, I'm still his uncle. What are you doing?"
However, Lan Yuheng said with a serious face, "Quickly pay your respects to the Monarch."
The child couldn't bow anymore. His eyes were filled with tears, making people feel sorry for him. Ye Tianze hurriedly withdrew his strength, and only then did he bow down.
"Greetings to the Monarch." The child lowered his head and respectfully kowtowed.
Ye Tianze didn't stop him. He searched his body and didn't find any treasures. Then, he took out an immortal artifact from the nine-story pagoda and gave it to him.
Lan Yuheng said again, "Quickly thank the Monarch for the reward."
The child took the treasure and respectfully bowed. Then, Lan Yuheng let Mu Shaoyun bring him out.
Ye Tianze looked at Lan Yuheng and was a little annoyed. Just as he was about to say something, Lan Yuheng suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Greetings to the Monarch. Lan Yuheng has contradicted the Monarch before. I hope the Monarch can forgive me."
Ye Tianze stared at him in a daze, not daring to believe it.
His body couldn't help but feel a chill. It was the chill of standing alone at a high place.
He knew what Lan Yuheng meant. Lan Yuheng was using his actions to tell him that from now on, he was not only his big brother, but also Stone City's City Lord. He was also the King of South Sky City. We were all his people!
When the people saw the King, they naturally had to kneel and worship. They couldn't look up.
Although the big brother was close, the King was above family.
"Are you forcing me?" Ye Tianze had never used this kind of tone with Lan Yuheng before.
It was a little unfamiliar, a little cold.
Lan Yuheng lowered his head and said, "Lan Yuheng doesn't dare."
"Get up!"
Ye Tianze coldly said.
Lan Yuheng knelt on the ground and didn't get up. Ye Tianze was a little annoyed. He rushed over and fiercely kicked.
But, halfway through, he reluctantly pulled his foot back.
Lan Yuheng swallowed his saliva and said, "Big brother … … this is the last time I call you big brother. I know that as a brother, I can't help big brother much. But sooner or later, I will have to change the way I call you. You are the King of Tiannan State. In the future, you will also be the Emperor of the human race. You will stand at the highest place. Our lives, all depend on you."
"Who told you this?" Ye Tianze asked. "Zhao Mingli?"
"No, this is the consensus of everyone. In the eyes of the people of Tiannan City, you are no longer a hero. You are the King. We are all your people."
Lan Yuheng said, "From now on, there will only be your people here. There will be no one close to you. I know that doing this is really cruel to you, but … … but … … if we don't do this, you will never be able to be as cold as your enemies. You … …"
"Lan Fugui, you motherf * cker, get up!"
Ye Tianze loudly said.
Lan Yuheng didn't get up, so Ye Tianze dragged him up. But even so, he still knelt on the ground, not daring to look directly at Ye Tianze.
Ye Tianze's heart trembled slightly. In the end, he gave up on the idea of making him change. "If you want to kneel, then kneel forever!"
Ye Tianze left Lan Yuheng's mansion and came to the streets of Tiannan City.
When people saw him appear, they all knelt on the ground. In addition to worship in their eyes, there was only respect. Respect that came from the depths of their hearts.
All of a sudden, Ye Tianze felt as if he were alone. It was as if the world had suddenly changed.
It wasn't that he didn't fit in with the people of this world. It was that the people of this world had deliberately distanced themselves from him. They respected him, but they feared him even more.
"It's not your fault."
Diva said calmly when she saw him walk in alone in the Jade Void Hall. "Even if it doesn't change now, it will change one day. Lan Yuheng, Zhao Mingli, Tangning … these people you were once familiar with will all change. They are establishing your authority because they want you to become the emperor and lead them to the peak of Mount Buzhou!"
Ye Tianze glanced at her coldly. "No, this is not the human race I want!"
"No, it's just like that."
Diva said. "The emperor stands at the highest point. Humans are his people, but they are also his chess pieces. There is no family, no love, and no distracting thoughts. You must think for the entire human race, because your will is the will of the human race!"
Diva said calmly. "Everyone wants to reach the peak and stand at the highest point. But it's lonely at the top. You must start getting used to this loneliness!"
