Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations Terrifying flames soared into the sky and slowly extinguished when the eastern sky turned bright.
When the first ray of sunlight shone down and enveloped Honorable Martial City, it was as if the city had been reborn. Every corner of the city was filled with vitality.
However, when the crowd looked at the Qian Martial Emperor Palace, it had turned into a grayish-white land. There were no magnificent buildings, no bloody corpses, and no traces of chaos. It was as if nothing had ever existed.
In the future, many people recalled that the dark green flames seemed to have come from the abyss of hell. No matter where it burned, nothing would be left behind, and everything would be turned into ashes. Even the souls of those who had already died would let out incomparably mournful cries due to the burning of the flames, and in the end, they would be turned into nothingness.
Of course, these were all things that happened later.
In a courtyard in Honorable Martial City.
Chu Xingyun, Chu Xingchen, and the others gathered here and were talking with each other.
Although they had not slept for the entire night, they were in high spirits. As they talked, their faces were filled with excitement. Sometimes, they would even laugh out loud. The scene was very harmonious.
The chaotic situation in the Eighteen Dynasties had been going on for a long time. After Chu Xingyun went to the Ancient Star Sect, the chaos became more and more intense. It had reached a point where it was out of control.
After the bloody battle, Chu Xingyun became the owner of the Wanjian Pavilion. He was an elder and set the law, which made the Wanjian Pavilion prosper again. However, it was undeniable that the Wanjian Pavilion's strength had been greatly reduced and it lacked disciples.
Because of this, the owners of these forces, who had the talent and resources, dared to be so arrogant. They did not even put Chu Xingyun in their eyes. Their actions could be said to be infuriating.
This anger had been suppressed in the hearts of the crowd for a long time. Today, they could finally vent it out. Of course, they would feel excited.
Qian Shao and Qian Yuxin were surprisingly among the crowd. Their expressions were similarly excited. However, on top of their excitement, they also felt a little emotional.
Qian Shao was the Emperor of Qian Wu, while Qian Yuxin was the Princess of Qian Wu. Qian Yin, who had just passed away, had a close relationship with them. The palace that had just been burned down was their residence.
At this moment, all of this had become history. The Honorable Martial City and the Qian Martial Emperor Dynasty would usher in a new future. However, all of this had completely changed in a day. It felt like a dream.
"Uncle Qian." At this moment, Chu Xingyun Qian Yuxin's God of Cloud........ Chu Xingyun Yuxin...
....... Pavilion Pavilion Pavilion Pavilion master.
"Do you know where the ten thousand soldiers of the Imperial Army stationed by the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion are currently stationed?" Chu Xingyun's tone was serious, and his eyes gradually became sharp.
In the past, when Fan Wujie was still on the throne, he had secretly established a huge army of 180,000 people in order to consolidate the Wanjian Pavilion's rule over the Eighteen Dynasties. They were called the Imperial Army.
The Imperial Army existed to protect and monitor the Imperial Family. They were only ordered by Fan Wujie. No one, including the Emperor of the Dynasty, could casually deploy them.
After Fan Wujie's death, the Wanjian Pavilion changed owners. The Eighteen Dynasties were in chaos. Then, a terrifying Beast Tide broke out. The Imperial Army was like a group of dragons without a leader. They went into hiding and no one knew where they were.
At this moment, Chu Xingyun had returned with 180,000 Subduing Star Guards. He had quelled the chaos and carried out reforms. He had already given the Qian Martial Emperor Dynasty a new lease on life. He naturally wanted to take control of this powerful army.
"I know where the Imperial Army is. Now that the Pavilion Master has won the hearts of the people, it is perfectly justifiable for you to take back control of the Imperial Army." Qian Shao was not stupid. He quickly understood what Chu Xingyun was thinking. He changed the topic, "However, the Imperial Army is related to the Wanjian Pavilion. It will take some time."
The 180,000 Imperial Army was like the 180,000 Subduing Star Guards. They were the most elite military forces of the two sects. It was not difficult for Chu Xingyun to take back control of the Imperial Army as the Pavilion Master. However, he still needed to make some reasonable arrangements.
"That's fine. We will rest in Zun Wu City for a day. We will head to the Qingmu Dynasty tomorrow." Chu Xingyun said indifferently. He had already made plans for this. Now that the chaos in the Qian Martial Emperor Dynasty had just been quelled, they still had many things to take care of.
There were a total of fifty-eight cities under the Qianwu Dynasty. The high-ranking officials had already been swallowed by the raging flames. In order to maintain the normal operation of the cities, they had to select ten thousand students from the one hundred and eighty thousand as soon as possible and send them to different places in the cities.
Moreover, Chu Xingyun was in charge of the vast Zong Region. There could not be any barriers between the 18 ancient cities and the 18 dynasties.
Due to this, he decided to abolish the names of ancient cities and dynasties. He decided to change them into provinces. He would set up a unified criminal law and reform.
Finally, the recruitment of disciples in the Wanjian Pavilion had to be dealt with as soon as possible.
Chu Xingyun controlled the Eighteen Subduing Star Guards. He could quickly recruit 180,000 Imperial Army soldiers. His strength was not weak. However, the lack of disciples in the Wanjian Pavilion was also an indisputable fact.
A powerful sect had to have both a strong force and a steady stream of new disciples. Only when the two complemented each other would it be able to prosper.
Of course, these ideas in Chu Xingyun's mind were too complicated. There were too many details. He had to rely on Chu Xingchen and Ning Lefan to execute and perfect them. As the Pavilion Lord, he only needed to take care of the overall situation.
Everyone felt Chu Xingyun's deep gaze. Everyone fell silent as they thought about it. The entire hall suddenly became quiet. Even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
Da Da Da!
At this moment, there were hurried footsteps outside the courtyard.
Ye Ming and Su Hanfeng strode in. They seemed to be in a hurry. As soon as they stepped into the main hall, they did not bother to salute and took out a black scroll.
"Pavilion Lord, this scroll was sent from the border." Ye Ming handed the scroll to Chu Xingyun. His words made everyone's eyes freeze. A letter from the border?
Chu Xingyun reached out to take the scroll. After opening it, his brows immediately knitted together. His aura suddenly changed and seemed to freeze.
Seeing this, the crowd's heart sank. They had a bad premonition.
"Yun 'er, what happened?" Chu Xingchen stepped forward and asked the question on everyone's mind.
Chu Xingyun put away the scroll, took a deep breath, and replied in a serious voice, "These days, the Beast Tide has gradually subsided. The Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace have been moving more frequently. They have already gathered more than 100,000 troops at the border. There have been many conflicts between the two sides. A war may break out at any time."
Thump!
Everyone's hearts trembled violently. The thing they were most worried about had finally happened.
"In addition, Wu Jing Xue also sensed that the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace are still secretly gathering troops. It seems that their ambition to take over the 18 ancient cities and the 18 dynasties is very firm …" Chu Xingyun added. In an instant, everyone's expression became extremely ugly. They were anxious and uneasy.
They were not the only ones. Chu Xingyun also had this uneasy feeling, and it was even stronger.
"The other side's actions are much faster than we expected. The time left for us to prepare is getting less and less. Now, we have to split up and reorganize in the shortest time possible." Chu Xingyun's expression was solemn. Everyone's spirits were lifted. They immediately suppressed the uneasy feeling in their hearts and looked serious.
"Father, I'll leave the matter of assigning the disciples to you. Everyone needs to make accurate arrangements. We have to make the various cities operate normally."
"Lefan and Lu Ling, return to the Wanjian Pavilion first and lead the disciples of the Wanjian Pavilion to the border. Do your best to support Wu Jing Xue and Senior Lin. Do your best to stabilize the situation at the border."
Chu Xingyun looked at Chu Xingchen and Ning Lefan and quickly made arrangements. In the end, he looked at everyone and his voice gradually deepened. "As for the others, after a short rest, immediately follow me to the Cyanwood Empire!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people in the main hall immediately moved. They either rushed away or rested quickly. They did not dare to waste any time at all.
The Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace were already gathering troops. If they broke through the border, perhaps they would directly charge into the 18 dynasties and 18 ancient cities. They would slaughter and trample on them one by one. In the end, they would definitely kill their way into the Wanjian Pavilion.
Just like Chu Xingyun had said, they did not have much time left. War could erupt at any time.
