BXBX NOVEL Chapter 152 - Prelude Begins
His voice was very gentle, without the slightest killing intent.
Moreover, because it contained Dharmic powers, although the volume was not loud, it reached everyone’s ears.
Not only did Shen Yu and the others at the front hear it clearly, but even the million-strong army at the back could hear it clearly. Every ordinary soldier heard Cui Heng’s words.
These six words immediately caused everyone present to boil over.
Countless soldiers became excited, as if they had been pardoned. They heaved a long sigh of relief.
They did not know much about battle and basically came with the main group.
Now that they knew that they did not have to die, they naturally felt extremely glad and would not think about the reason.
Shen Yu and the others suddenly raised their heads and looked at Cui Heng in disbelief.
They could hardly believe their ears. They even suspected that they were hallucinating from their fear.
Were they being forgiven?
How was this possible?
Actually, when they saw Cui Heng descend from the sky, Shen Yu and the others were already prepared to be killed.
After all, the reason why this million-strong army was formed was because of a single goal.
To kill.
Kill Cui Heng! Who would forgive such a group of people who specially came to kill him?
That was impossible.
“I said, I won’t kill you.” Cui Heng noticed the expressions on Shen Yu and the others’ faces and emphasized again.
This time, Shen Yu and the others finally believed it.
They looked at each other and saw surprise in each other’s eyes.
Everyone was overjoyed!
Just now, they were all prepared to be killed and were in extreme despair. Now, they had a chance to live again. They did not have to die here.
The feeling of escaping death filled everyone’s hearts with joy.
“Thank you, Exalted Immortal, for not killing
us!”
Shen Yu was the first to kowtow and thank him.
“Thank you, Exalted Immortal, for not killing
us!”
“Thank you, Exalted Immortal, for not killing
us!”
Tao Zheng and the others, including the Upper World Angels, hurriedly knelt on the ground with Shen Yu and kowtowed to Cui Heng to express their gratitude.
When the generals at the back saw that everyone in front had knelt down, they immediately knelt down as well. Under this chain reaction, the million-strong army knelt down in front of Cui Heng in the blink of an eye and thanked him!
“Thank you, Exalted Immortal, for not killing us!”
“Thank you, Exalted Immortal, for not killing us!”
What did it feel like to be thanked by more than a million people at the same time?
It was an indescribable feeling.
Even a Golden Core cultivator like Cui Heng felt a little excited when faced with the thanks of a million people at the same time.
Of course, this excitement could also be because he saw a red light that filled his eyes. It was an extremely strong and bright red!
The red color that symbolizes joy!
One inch!
Two inches!
1.5 feet!
1.9 feet!
A great harvest!
A truly great harvest!
The joy of regaining hope after despair was really intense.
With just this wave of collection, the red color that symbolizes joy increased by 1.9 feet.
As a result, the red light that symbolizes joy exceeded four feet in height, second only to the black light that symbolizes evil.
After the collection of the Seven Emotions on the Hongwu Divine Sword and the contribution of Monk Dufa, the Treasure Chest Monster, the black light was already five feet and one inch tall. It was the tallest among the Light of Seven Emotions.
Cui Heng looked at the people in front of him happily.
These were all plump chives!
How could he kill them?
This was going against his cultivation, and it was also the greatest waste of resources.
Of course, it was impossible to let them off just like that.
“Don’t thank me too early.” Cui Heng suddenly said to Shen Yu and the others, “I spared your lives because I have something for you to do.
“Next, return to your homes and use all the power you can control to implement these decrees everywhere under your rule.”
As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and streams of light flew out and entered their heads.
All the information about the decree instantly appeared in their minds.
This sudden situation shocked and frightened Shen Yu and the others.
The moment Cui Heng flicked out the streams of light, they thought that Cui Heng had suddenly changed his mind and wanted to kill them. Their mood instantly fell to rock bottom, and they felt extreme despair.
However, when the information carried by these streams of light appeared in their minds, this magical method shocked them greatly. At the same time, they felt a strong fear.
Cui Heng could actually directly place information into a person’s mind. This was too unbelievable. It was clearly the work of an Immortal.
They actually wanted to kill such an Immortal previously.
It was too ridiculous.
They were completely tired of living.
Although such intense emotional fluctuations allowed Cui Heng to reap another wave of the Seven Emotions of All Life, this also made them not focus on the decree itself at first.
However, after the tide of shock and fear subsided, Shen Yu and the others began to carefully check the contents of the decree.
Their expressions changed drastically, and their hearts were in turmoil.
He ordered the Seven Distinguished Families to copy their martial techniques about the Deity Realm and print them into books to be sold to the 11 states of the Great Jin.
The local big clans were to split into several small families. The landlords who occupied too much land had to divide the fields, and Cui Heng limited the amount of land each family could own. They were not allowed to control the people’s livelihoods…
This was extremely similar to the various government decrees issued by Heavenly King Hongwu 300 years ago, but it was more complete and strict.
Just looking at the contents of the decree made Shen Yu and the others shudder.
Especially the Deity Realm experts and angels from the Seven Distinguished Families, their faces were ashen.
This was not just digging out the roots of the Seven Distinguished Families, but also wanting their lives.
Once the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World’s main sect descended, they would definitely punish them. At that time, all of them would die.
But they did not dare to refuse.
If they agreed to implement the decree, they could at least survive until the main sect of the Upper World descended.
If their luck was good and had an elder as a guarantor, they might be able to keep their life.
But if they didn’t agree, they would probably die now.
Moreover, from the power displayed by Cui Heng, he was probably already a Heaven Immortal or even a Heaven Monarch.
This was a terrifying expert that was no longer somebody that any aristocratic family could deal with.
It was better to let the Nine Immortal Sects and the three Buddhist monasteries deal with this headache.
Hence, after some internal conflict, these Deity Realm experts, Angels, Family Heads, and State Overseers bowed and kowtowed again.
“Yes, Exalted Immortal. We will definitely do our best to implement the decree.”
….
The news of the Battle Cui Alliance fleeing without a fight and the million-strong army dispersing spread throughout the 11 states of the Great Jin at an extremely fast speed.
For a moment, the world was shocked!
More than ten Deity Realm experts and many State Overseers and Family Heads joined forces and gathered two million troops to attack Cui Heng in Fengzhou. In the end, they were frightened to the point of kneeling and begging for mercy by the other party.
As long as someone heard such a description, their first reaction would be that it was pure nonsense.
It was impossible for such a thing to happen.
However, as the State Overseers of the various states and the heads of the various families began to implement the government decrees set by Cui Heng and the help of Deity Realm Angels, people finally realized that this was actually true.
That Fengzhou State Overseer, Cui Heng, actually suppressed the entire million-strong army of the Battle Cui Alliance alone, as well as many Deity Realm experts, family heads, and State Overseers.
These powerful people all knelt at Cui Heng’s feet.
Only at this moment did the name Cui Heng truly resound in the world.
No one knew who he was previously.
But once he defeated the enemy, the world was shocked.
….
In the Imperial City of the Central Continent, in the Great Jin Imperial Court.
Wei Yi, who wanted to be the ruler of a fallen country and be remembered by the world, was a little stunned.
He looked at the note in his hand in a daze, then looked at the courtiers below the jade steps who were bowing with respectful expressions. He asked in confusion, “Is this true?!”
This note was submitted by Prime Minister Chu Yuanliang. It described the encounter of the Alliance Army after they entered Fengzhou and the final outcome.
“Absolutely true.” Chu Yuanliang sighed.
He never dreamed that the Fengzhou Governor, Cui Heng, was actually such an Immortal-like figure. Now, he had been pushed to the opposite side by Emperor Jianyan.
“Great! That’s great! Hahaha!” Wei Yi clapped his hands and laughed loudly when he heard that. He asked Chu Yuanliang, “Prime Minister, you told me earlier that Heavenly King Hongwu’s governance is a method to revive the country and destroy the ruler, right?”
“That’s right.” Chu Yuanliang nodded. He seemed to have thought of something and could not help but look at Wei Yi in surprise. “What does Your Majesty want to do?!”
“There’s no need to look at me like that.” Wei Yi’s face was flushed as he said with a smile, “I know very well that even if the current Great Jin has a way to revive the country, it’s useless.
“But if I can use this power to implement this decree before the country is destroyed, allowing the country to prosper and eventually destroy the country in a sea of flowers, I will be remembered by the world.”
“…” Chu Yuanliang was completely speechless. He let out a long sigh and said, “Perhaps.”
“Alright!” Wei Yi lay on the dragon throne in satisfaction. “Pass down my words. Spread the decree of the Fengzhou Governor, Cui Heng, throughout the country and order all the officials to promote it.
However, it’s already difficult for my decree to leave the Central Continent. It’s just that my words aren’t enough. Prime Minister, please take care of this.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Chu Yuanliang bowed respectfully and said, “Your Majesty, the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World will descend in half a month. We should start preparing for the ceremony.”
“Prime Minister, go and prepare. When the time comes, you can just go over.” Wei Yi waved his hand casually.
….
At this moment, Cui Heng was adjusting the power of the Golden Core in the Changfeng Prefecture.
At the same time, he sensed the feedback from the Seven Emotions Light.
After resolving the Alliance Army, he condensed seven Seven Emotions Divinities and placed them three feet above the heads of seven people.
These seven people were either State Overseers, Patriarchs of preeminent families, or Upper World Angels. They all came from different places.
At this moment, the seven Seven Emotions Divinities were in seven different places, collecting the seven emotions of all living beings.
Therefore, Cui Heng could collect a considerable amount of the Light of Seven Emotions almost every day. He was getting closer and closer to his final goal.
“The 100-year period is in half a month. It’s time to organize my current state. Also, should I spend some currency to deduce some spells or exchange for some things?”
