Chapter 1042 Different World Situation (I)
1042 Different World Situation (I)
"Since no one has any questions, you"re dismissed. We have a lot of work to do, so let"s get started immediately," announced w.a.n.g Wei. Everyone then bowed as they swiftly exited the meeting room.
Ao Shen rushed to meet up with Xu s.h.i.+, and they had a secret conversation through Divine Sense. No one knew what they talked about, but both seemed content afterward. After these factions returned, they immediately began meeting, planning, and mobilizing the resources and manpower needed for this expansion. Many of the Non-Emperor Lineages decided to use the court"s Transmission Array as it was better than theirs, and the Heavenly Emperor was kind enough to give them full access.
Great Talisman City:
"You"ve seen yourself," said Talisman One. "Our territories were not on par with those of a faction with an Eternal Powerhouse - even worse, we are treated as one of those lesser Emperor Lineages. The reason for this is obvious."
"Tong Ruobing"s clone was silent.
"Your status as the Queen Mother of the Star Beast World only benefits you - not the city. Something must be done."
The Great Talisman City does not hold any Divine Positions in the Star Beast World"s court for various reasons, mostly the inter-political situation between these two worlds. Meanwhile, w.a.n.g Wei cannot treat them normally as they would become too powerful with resources and benefits coming from two courts.
"I will share some of my resources from the Star Beast World with the city," finally replied Tong Ruobing"s clone. Talisman One looked at her and secretly sighed; the best option would be to focus on this world"s court and let her Queen Mother Position be more of a pa.s.sive one.
However, such a decision would dramatically reduce her resources, power, and influence and s.h.i.+ft more benefits to the Great Talisman City. Tong Ruobing was obviously unwilling to do this, and Talisman One understood despite his disappointment. No Emperor would make such a decision, so he could not blame her.
At the end of the day, she was still willing to sacrifice for the sake of her faction; he could not ask for more; otherwise, he risked ruining their relations.h.i.+p.
Emperor Enlightening Academy:
After returning to the academy, Xu s.h.i.+ began mobilizing her people. They had long prepared for the eventual expansion of the court, and she decided to accompany the first group of people. They soon descended on a Great Thousand World called the Four Pillars World.
Xu s.h.i.+, a group of teachers, and a legion of a hundred thousand soldiers appeared in this new world. With a thought, she scanned the entire world and even learned most of its history.
The past was too chaotic and unimportant, so Xu s.h.i.+ focused on the present. The Great Xue Dynasty has ruled the entire world for countless generations, reigning as the de facto supreme of this world - until recently. Many events have led to the drastic weakening of the royal family, leading to ma.s.sive rebellions worldwide.
The years of fighting resulted in a balance between four powers: the Great Xue Dynasty, the Moon G.o.ddess Cult, the Northern Su Dynasty, and the Alchemy Valley. The Moon G.o.ddess Cult is a sect of women with influence in all the top factions because their outer members and a few inner members married powerful men from different factions. Additionally, this generation"s Moon Saintess is a woman of unparalleled beauty and strength.
The Northern Su Dynasty is the most successful revolt in this era of chaos and strife; they"ve overcome countless Warlords and the main a.s.sault of the Great Xue Dynasty before taking control of the northern area of this ma.s.sive continent that is this world.
The Alchemy Valley is a sect composed of countless professions, not just Pill Refiners. They have been the most successful in this period because they sell resources to both sides of the war. As long as someone has the money, they will sell them pills, weapons, talismans, and arrays. Their actions have garnered the ire of the other faction, but no one can break their sect"s Protective Formation, and none of the two dynasties wish for the Alchemy Valley to support the other unequivocally.
After a.n.a.lyzing this world"s history, Xu s.h.i.+ knew how to proceed. She released a terrifying aura that made every single living creature in this tremble and kneel:
"I am the Void Time Empress. Under the order of the Heavenly Emperor, this world will now be under my jurisdiction. All leaders of the top four factions must visit me at the court"s branch within 6 hours."
While everyone was shocked and still processing the news, Xu s.h.i.+ continued her work. With a wave of her hand, she installed the Heaven Tier Formation. She could immediately detect a strange aura permeating and changing the world; to be precise, it targeted this world"s Heavenly Dao.
The void above her head broke, and a tree branch took root in this world; she knew it was a branch of her plane"s World Tree. The branch contained a special s.p.a.ce serving as this world"s court. The soldiers and professors immediately started to build a palace; although it could be as grandiose as the one back home, it still needed to be beautiful and luxurious as a display of power to the world"s natives.
Six hours later, Xu s.h.i.+ finally summoned the four people who were patiently waiting outside for the entire duration. As she sat on her throne, all beautiful and majestic, four individuals entered the room. On the far left was a middle-aged man with a few visible white and dressed in a yellow dragon robe; his name was Hou Chamgpu, and he was the current ruler of Great Xue.
Next to him was an elderly man with white hair, a long white beard, a green robe, a sage-like aura and visage, and a faint smell of medicine; Xu s.h.i.+ knew he was called the Medicine Saint and held the position of Valley Master in this generation.
The third person in the line was the Moon Saintess, an angelic woman dressed in all blue with a cold expression plastered on her face. Her icy demeanor was followed by a cold chill emanating from her as a result of her Ice Spirit Physique and her Ice Dao; the woman was the epitome of a cold beauty, and if Xu s.h.i.+ were not present, all eyes would be on her despite her natural aloof and cold aura.
Lastly was a handsome young man with s.h.i.+ning, long black hair, a black dragon robe, standing tall and straight, and a powerful, confident, and domineering aura emanating from his body. This young man was the legendary Su Sovereign - Cai Renshu.
"This humble one has seen the Empress." (3x)
"Huh?" Xu s.h.i.+"s eyes focused on Cai Renshu, and he saw the latter was distracted; his eyes had lost control as they were full of desires and l.u.s.t. She often saw those eyes when she was a mortal, but it had been a while. She squinted her eyes, and the Su Dynasty Ruler immediately began to sweat and kowtowed to the ground.
"Apologies, your majesty, for the offense."
The Medicine Saint calmly played with his beard, while the Moon Saintess would never show any emotions. Meanwhile, Hou Chamgpu sneered. The Su Ruler had risen extremely fast, becoming the youngest True Monarch of the world. Additionally, with his charisma and military skill, he swiftly conquered the northern area of the continent, so it was understandable that he was prideful, but that"s what he hated the most about the latter. Who knew such pride would cause him to make such a serious faux pas?
If he could, he wanted to make some snide remark but did not dare; he still remembered that aura. Additionally, he was not stupid and knew what the t.i.tle of [Empress] meant.
"This is the first and last time, understand?"
"I swear on my life it won"t happen again."
"Good. You can get up."
Cai Renshu slowly stood up with a terrifying, calm, and peaceful expression; no one could tell he was just humiliated - it was as if nothing had just happened.
"Someone born with great destiny?" thought Xu s.h.i.+. "He should have some value."
"I know you must be confused about what"s happening," she declared. "A Heavenly Emperor has appeared in the Myriad Emperor World - the Heaven Will World of this community, for those of you unaware. He has established the Heavenly Court, and it"s time for expansion into every corner of this world community. I won"t bore you with the details, so let"s talk about how this will affect you: the Divine Positions."
She snapped her finger, and information about the Conferred G.o.d List and the G.o.d Position entered their mind. Xu s.h.i.+ did not stop to give them time to process this information and continued:
"According to the court"s rules, I"m only required to give you 5% of the positions. However, I"m generous, so I will hand over 15%. Of this percentage, 80% will be divided between the four of you and the rest will be granted to the rest of the world."
