Chapter 315: Lord of the State
Chapter 315: Lord of the State
Qinzhou surrendered.
As soon as the news came out, it caused an uproar.
Huang Feng was considering whether to capture Liang, Lan, and Ning Prefectures, or to mobilize his troops to defend against the demon army. If he encountered tough elements and could not capture them after a long siege, he would need to personally take action to break the city's formation.
Even if he gained territory, his powerful men would be dispersed. By then, he would not only have to prevent the demon tribe from attacking, but also be wary of the imperial court. Huangquan Tower was also a difficult target.
With no one to use, he had to rely on himself, which was exhausting. Being the leader of a sect was not easy. The others all had the attitude of working people, just doing their job.
If you save the people but lose the land, you gain both the people and the land. If you save the land but lose the people, you lose both the people and the land.
The most urgent task was to preserve their strength. The imperial court was powerful, and it was a pipe dream to overthrow it in one fell swoop.
For now, he would hold off the demon tribe and manage the territory he occupied. After the demon tribe retreated, he would have more powerful men under his command. Over the next few decades, his cultivation would also improve significantly.
What Huang Feng lacks is time.
Now, the people of the Holy Dragon Empire had lost all their morale, and Huang Feng had exposed their ugly face. As long as Huang Feng was still alive, even if the Holy Dragon Patriarch personally took action, it would be difficult to save the situation. At most, he could only give the empire a breath of fresh air.
The land of four states is enough.
The most important thing now is to withstand the pressure from the demon tribe and consolidate the territory he has gained. When he enters the holy realm, it will be the day to sweep the world.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish.
Don't be impatient.
The current situation is unclear, and there are still many deep-water crocodiles hiding in the abyss, secretly watching the current situation. If you are not careful, you will become a signpost for others.
Since no one is moving, Huang Feng does not have the strength to suppress all opponents, so he will lie dormant for the time being.
Shou Deyun Kai see Yueming.
In a world where the might of heaven and earth is concentrated in one person, the final competition is still about the combat power of the strongest, and everything else is just icing on the cake.
Huang Feng knew full well that in this world, the so-called popular will was merely a cloak for the powerful. Even as the entire world rebelled and war loomed, the Holy Dragon Empire remained poised to sit back and relax.
Without him.
In the empire, besides the Holy Dragon Patriarch, there are also Saint Realm experts. They only need to wait for the Saint Realm Patriarch to come out of seclusion or free up his hands to suppress all disobedience.
How about the demon dragon?
So what if there are monsters and ghosts?
All they had to do was kill all those who refused to obey, replace them with new people, and forcibly erase this part of history. No one in the martial arts world would ever mention this matter again, and everything would return to normal, ultimately returning to where it all started.
The lives and deaths of billions of people are nothing to some. Perhaps they are happy to see this happen, taking this opportunity to devour blood and reap a wave of profits.
After Qinzhou stabilizes, it will be entrusted to Tieyun and his wife. Huang Feng should also lead the strong men back to guard against the invasion of the demon tribe.
After careful consideration, Huang Feng saw the direction of the future clearly and stopped thinking about it. It was time to focus all his attention on his martial arts.
He was about to get up and head to the backyard to comprehend the skills everyone had contributed when several figures hurried over, all looking ecstatic, as if they had obtained some rare treasure.
"What's the matter?"
"When facing great things, one must remain calm. Only when one's heart is as thunderous as thunder and one's face is as calm as a lake can one accomplish great things."
Zhao Wuji could no longer care about that and immediately bowed and said:
"Congratulations, Master. Congratulations, Master."
"The envoys from Liang, Lan, and Ning states have arrived, saying they want to voluntarily submit to our Tiansheng Sect."
What? ! !
Is there such a good thing in the world?
It was like the sun rising from the west, and good things happened. With a bang, it hit Huang Feng's head directly, and he was stunned for a moment.
Swish!
Huang Feng stood up suddenly: "Are you serious?!"
"Master, how dare we make such a joke! The envoys from the three states are just outside the city, waiting to see you."
"Yes, yes! This is truly a tremendous fortune! It seems the patriarch's spirit of benevolence and righteousness has spread throughout the world. It won't be long before we conquer all the prefectures and counties without a single drop of blood."
"The Sect Master is still amazing."
"Rumor has it that Huangquan Tower suffered countless casualties in its efforts to capture Shan and Xia states, yet the leader conquered seven states almost without a single bloodshed."
"In the past, the Sect Master always talked about the will of the people, but we didn't take it seriously. Now it seems that we were short-sighted and far inferior to the Sect Master's great talent and vision. In my opinion, the will of the people is the art of slaying dragons. In the future, we will surely overturn the evil dragon's lair and strike down the dragon directly."
"........."
Those who raised the banner of rebellion across the country fought to the death for a tiny piece of land. Yet, before Huang Feng even opened his mouth, and before the army even set out, they had already seized three states for nothing.
I have to say, it is indeed a miracle.
It is difficult for ordinary people to replicate.
"it is good!"
Since he could get the three states for free without spending a single soldier, Huang Feng was naturally happy to see it happen.
As the saying goes: If I can inherit the imperial seal, I can also call myself "I".
Those who receive orders from heaven will live long and prosperous lives.
"Please come in, three envoys!"
"Forget it, I will go there myself. Please follow me."
"I am honored to do so, and I dare not ask for it."
A long wind blew past, and several streams of light rushed out of the City Lord's Mansion and arrived at the west gate.
dong dong...
Soldiers in black armor, holding weapons, spread out in rows, all of them solemn and dignified, showing the toughness of the people of Qinzhou.
A tall figure walked slowly over, wearing a black cloak, billowing in the wind. He looked as imposing as a tiger and like the scorching sun.
"Ha ha……"
Before the person arrives, the sound has already arrived.
"You three have come from afar, and I apologize for not welcoming you in person."
"Wei Long, Zhu Ming, Qian Fei, meet the Sect Master."
At first glance, the three of them had strong cultivation bases, and were all powerful people who had condensed the flowers of vital energy.
"We have come to the Tiansheng Sect on the orders of the governor. We ask the sect leader to open the door to convenience and seek the welfare of the people in the three states."
Let’s get straight to the point.
No unnecessary words.
"it is good!"
"You three are willing to abandon evil and join the good, and make great contributions to the people of the world. You are truly the world's top heroes. Today, I have prepared a little wine, and we will drink together."
"Congratulations to the three heroes! Congratulations to all the people in the world!"
This scene is so moving.
They had originally thought that Huang Feng, having achieved success at a young age, would be arrogant and they were prepared to be ridiculed. But for the sake of survival, it was not shameful to endure temporary humiliation.
Unexpectedly, Huang Feng was so arrogant that he actually regarded the three of them as heroes, not mentioning surrender at all, but instead praising them for their contributions to the people of the world.
A scholar dies for a confidant.
If the king regards his subjects as heroes of the state, I shall repay him with my death. If the king regards his subjects as worthless, I shall regard him as a pig or a dog.
"The Sect Master considers me a hero. I, Qian Fei, am willing to die for you! I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"I, Zhu Ming, am also willing to serve the Sect Master!"
"Me too."
"Ha ha……"
Huang Feng smiled and patted their shoulders.
"I appreciate your kindness."
"We are willing to sacrifice our lives, not for personal gain, not for the benefit of any particular individual, but for the common good of all people in the world."
"Only by destroying this cannibalistic world and peeling back the layers of darkness can we bring light and hope to the people of the world."
“The road ahead may be long and difficult, but if you keep going you will reach your destination.”
"I encourage you all!"
