Facing Zuo Qingcang's question, the Wind Empress did not answer.
After a while, looking at the constantly changing ground beneath his feet, Zuo Qingcang asked slowly, "Who did this?"
"The deputy leader of the Empire's Royal Mage Corps, Augusta." The Wind Empress said in a low voice, "During the blitz battle in Haijing, Master Jiang had already reached the peak of the Dharma stage. He covered the evacuation of the civilians and disciples of the martial arts club in the north of the city by himself.
He single-handedly killed more than fifty of the Empire's soldiers and was surrounded by a large army. He used the alleys in the north of the city to engage in guerilla warfare and wanted to retreat after killing several soldiers. In the end, he was killed by Augusta's Flaming Sun. "
"After that, Jiang Qing and Xu Hongfei risked their lives to bring his body out."
Zuo Qingcang's expression did not change, but the Wind Empress instinctively felt danger. It was as if a storm was coming.
"How is Senior Sister now?"
The Wind Empress sighed softly and continued, "Thanks to the secret manual you left behind, Jiang Qing and the others have been guided on the path of martial arts. Moreover, after 20 years of war and killing people every day, even a pig would become an expert.
Jiang Qing had already condensed a martial arts Dharma body before the peace treaty was signed. As for now, I haven't seen her in a long time.
I heard that she is now traveling the world, looking for an opportunity to break through to the Void Refinement stage. "
Zuo Qingcang nodded. "Let's talk about the others."
"After the peace treaty was signed, we had a big fight," the Wind Empress said. "Ah Yue, Zhu Bang, and the others wanted to fight to the death and stay in the Northern Wilderness to form a resistance army.
I had nowhere to go, and I didn't like the technology in the city, so I stayed here.
"Ji Nanxian, the Lightning Commander, Astaire, Shen Anan, and the elders of the Shadow Corps wanted to break through the Empire from the inside. They integrated into the Empire and became a part of it.
They changed their identities and appearances, becoming citizens of the New World. Ji Nanxian was involved in some political activities, the Lightning Commander started an electrical company, Astaire became an entertainment star, and the Shadow Corps became their security.
With the connections and funds left behind by Atlantis, they quickly achieved good results. "
Zuo Qingcang nodded. Although the Empire had occupied the New World, their population was still limited. If they wanted to rule the New World, they would need to use the people of the New World.
Regardless of whether it was business, politics, or culture, they would need the assistance of a large number of natives in the New World.
With Ji Nanxian's connections, funds, and knowledge, it was easy for them to get a good position in the current social structure of the New World.
Perhaps in a few years, or even a few decades, they would have the opportunity to separate the new continent from the control of the Empire.
"Go on."
The Wind Empress continued, "Xu Hongfei did not believe that you were dead, so he went out to sea alone to find you. Fei got married to a woman who had no talent at all. God knows why.
After the peace treaty was signed, he took his wife and son to live in seclusion. No one could find them.
"As for the Fire Palace Taoist, he escaped from Haijing on the night of the Lightning Battle. Now, he's secretly developing weapons under the command of the Lightning Commander. Some of our guns are provided by him.
Oh, right, there's also Shen Anan. She's now a famous plastic surgeon on the East Coast and a celebrity in the upper class. The wrinkles on my face are still from her. "
Obviously, after the war, everyone had their own way of living. Some people chose to continue resisting, some chose to live in secret, and some just wanted to live the rest of their lives peacefully.
Zuo Qingcang could not blame them. After 20 years of war, they had sacrificed enough.
"What about Tiger and the Sky River Sect?" Zuo Qingcang continued to ask.
"They were too big of a target, and it was not easy to hide their identities. After a few people were arrested by the secret police, they all migrated to the Central Plains and joined Kunlun."
In the current world, the Empire could be said to be the strongest in terms of territory, strength, army, and number of masters. Next was the Da Qi State, then Kunlun, then the Grassland Royal Court, and finally the many island alliances in the southeast of the Central Plains.
The remaining small countries were not a concern and did not affect the overall situation.
Due to the ambition and strength of the Empire, the remaining countries had no choice but to band together and form a temporary balance with the Empire.
Even Kunlun, the Da Qi State, and the Grassland, who were originally mortal enemies.
"What about Charlie and the Church of the Holy Son?" This religion was founded by Zuo Qingcang himself to stabilize the rule. No one knew what it had become after the war.
"Because the Church of the Holy Son worships you, it was quickly declared a cult by the Empire. Many people were killed and imprisoned. Now, few people believe it.
Charlie is quite good at running for his life. In addition to his life, I heard that he has opened a company in the south called Amway, which sells all kinds of things. "
Just as Zuo Qingcang, Feng Hou, and Moon were talking to each other, the huge shadow of the Dragon of Disaster swept across half of the Northern Wilderness, until a huge black mountain range appeared on the horizon.
Moon pointed to the peak of the Black Dragon Mountain and said, "We're here. It's there."
…
When the shadow of the Dragon of Disaster shrouded the peak of the Black Dragon Mountain Range, there were immediately cries of surprise from the crowd.
This was especially so when the Dragon of Disaster slowly descended toward the peak of the mountain. When its ferocious face appeared before everyone, the Resistance Army's warriors had already picked up their weapons and aimed at this unprecedented monster.
However, unlike the ordinary Resistance Army's warriors who were nervous and fearful, most of the Pale-White Imperial Guards revealed excited expressions. There were even a few middle-aged men who were in their forties whose eyes turned red and hot tears flowed out.
"It's the Dragon of Disaster!"
"Has he returned?"
"Has the Holy Son returned?"
At the next moment, Feng Hou and Moon were the first to jump down from the back of the Dragon of Disaster. They indicated to the ordinary Resistance Army's warriors not to be nervous and to put down their weapons.
Then the Dragon of Disaster flapped its wings and laid down on the snowy peak at the side. Zuo Qingcang was like a heavenly god descending, slowly descending toward the peak of the mountain.
Excited shouts came from the Pale-White Imperial Guards. As the sharp blades that Zuo Qingcang had personally nurtured, each of these Pale-White Imperial Guards were the most loyal believers of the Holy Son. When they saw Zuo Qingcang's appearance, almost all of their eyes were brimming with tears of excitement, unable to hold back their emotions.
Zuo Qingcang's eyes swept across the restless crowd. The living conditions of these Resistance Army's warriors were clearly very poor. Most of them were weather-beaten and covered in wounds. Their eyes were filled with confusion and uncertainty about the future.
Zuo Qingcang's cold voice rang out. Looking at everyone's excited, confused, and surprised gazes, he only said three sentences.
"I'm back."
"From today onward, wherever the sun shines, it will be our country."
"From today onward, there will be no opponents before us."
