Chapter 132: The Emperor's Power Tactics
"This is the only time that the massive amount of Life Essence can be used to transform Death Qi," Yang Chen said with a bitter smile. A day later, Howling Sky advanced to a Five-Star Demon Beast, and half an hour later, the golden beast advanced to a Six-Star Demon Beast, which also led Yang Chen to become a Six-Star Duel King.
"Young Master has just leveled up two ranks like this? And these two Demon Beasts advanced so quickly?" Long Xin said in surprise.
"Wife, don't be so surprised when you see this kind of situation in the future. With Young Master, anything that seems impossible can happen," Li Qi said with a mischievous smile.
"Who, who is your wife? Hmph, I dislike you, I'm not talking to you anymore," Long Xin said shyly.
After a moment, Yang Chen stood up and looked at everyone around him, saying, "How does it feel?"
"Thank you, Young Master," everyone said in unison.
Yang Chen nodded and sensed the group. Among them, Shi Heng had the highest cultivation level, being a Seven-Star Dou Zun; Lin Tingting was a Six-Star Demon Lord; Xiao Wentian was a Two-Star Duke; Xie Yao was an Eight-Star Battle Emperor; Yang Chen was a Six-Star Duel King; Li Qi, Zhao Yu, Zhang Tian were all Six-Star Duel Kings; Long Xin was a Seven-Star Duel King; Thunderous Movement was a Five-Star Duel King; Aoxue was a Five-Star Duel King; Mu Dance was a Six-Star Duel King; Xiao Yu was a Six-Star Duel King; Zhan Tao was a Six-Star Duel King; and Hao Yue was also a Six-Star Duel King.
"Let's go back. It's been about a day, and we don't know what has happened outside. This time our main members are not here, and there are over seven hundred thousand people without any leadership," Yang Chen pointed out.
"Yes, Leader." A minute later, the group of fifteen returned to the original battlefield. The armies of Zhou Shui and Huangshan had already retreated. The corpses on the ground were actually not much more than dried corpses; the blood had all been absorbed by the Yan Huang Blood Sword. In the vast Heavenly Water City, the Shadow Kill Imperial Flag was fluttering in the wind, as if declaring to everyone that Heavenly Water City belonged to the Shadow Kill Legion. Since yesterday, everyone had learned about the Shadow Kill Legion and knew that its Captain was a freak who could slaughter Nine-Star Dou Huang Realm experts like dogs despite being only a Four-Star Duel King!
"It seems that Zhou Shui and Huangshan have given me face and handed over this empty city of Heavenly Water City," Yang Chen said with a slight smirk.
"Let's go in," Yang Chen said.
"Yes, Young Master." Following this, Yang Chen mounted Wolf Gallop, and everyone followed suit.
At Heavenly Water City, the patrolling soldiers hurriedly shouted, "Who goes there? Stop!"
"Get the hell out of the way, open the city gate, the Leader has returned," a soldier resembling a Captain pushed aside the previous soldier and quickly said.
"Yes, Captain."
"The Shadow Kill Legion welcomes you, Captain." The city gate of Heavenly Water City slowly opened, and everyone knelt on one knee, shouting loudly.
"The Shadow Kill Legion welcomes you, Captain."
"The Shadow Kill Legion welcomes you, Captain."
"The Shadow Kill Legion welcomes you, Captain." Yang Chen smiled slightly as he rode his wolf into the city, while the others stopped at the City Gate and did not follow Yang Chen inside.
"Soldiers, stand at ease," Yang Chen said authoritatively.
"Thank you, Captain." After the soldiers stood up, Shi Heng and the others dared to enter the city.
"Greetings, General." Upon seeing Li Qi, the soldiers shouted in unison. Shi Heng and the others took a step back to present Li Qi at the forefront.
"Soldiers, no need for excessive courtesy," Li Qi said. His voice was not loud but carried an extraordinary authority.
"Thank you, General."
"Everything returns to normal; maintain vigilance around us," Yang Chen instructed.
"Yes, Captain." After that, Yang Chen led Shi Heng, Lin Tingting, and Li Qi away, while the others returned to their posts.
Yang Chen took the three directly to the Lord's Mansion, knowing that Zhu Jiang must be waiting for him. Sure enough, upon arriving at the mansion, a soldier informed him that Zhu Jiang was indeed waiting. Yang Chen smiled slightly and then dismissed Howling Sky as he strode forward.
"Zhu Jiang, Senior, sorry to keep you waiting," Yang Chen said as he walked into the Reception Room.
"Yang Commander! I thought you weren't coming back," Zhu Jiang said half-jokingly.
"How could that be? Ha ha, all my assets are here; where could I go?" Yang Chen replied with a smile.
"Yang Commander..."
"Stop! Just call me Yang Chen, Zhu Jiang, Senior; otherwise, it feels really awkward," Yang Chen interrupted.
"Alright then, I'll call you Yang Chen. Yang Chen, Duke of National Defense Red Tianba returned with Crimson Dragon yesterday and highly approves of your actions. Ha ha," Zhu Jiang laughed heartily.
"Alas, but I'm going to be hunted by the Empire," Yang Chen said feigning distress.
"What kind of scheme are you plotting? When do you plan to join Zhou Shui? You've already signed your name," Zhu Jiang inquired.
"What do you mean by joining? It's an alliance, okay? An alliance," Yang Chen quickly corrected him.
"What qualifications do you have for that?" Zhu Jiang asked in confusion.
"Ha ha, there’s no such thing as qualifications. My Shadow Kill Legion is an independent corps; who can command us? If I become someone else's subordinate, how can I later become a righteous force supporting Crimson Dragon to claim the throne?" Yang Chen declared loudly. "Huangshan has a million troops, Zhou Shui has eight hundred thousand, and the Empire has two million. My Shadow Kill Legion can completely confront any of the Lords." Yang Chen said confidently.
"I know you are very powerful, but you do not have a Fighting Saint Expert, do you? A hundred Demon Lords are not enough to be killed by a One Star Fighting Saint Expert. Without a Fighting Saint Expert, you cannot be considered a Lord in any way, do you understand?" Zhu Jiang explained patiently.
"Yes, I understand. I will discuss this with Zhou Shui and only act as allies," Yang Chen said, but several figures floated in his mind. Would I, Yang Chen, lack a Fighting Saint Expert by my side?
"I'm glad you understand. Young man, you must learn to restrain yourself; otherwise, when the wood stands out in the forest, the wind will surely destroy it. When a piece on the chessboard can no longer be controlled, the player will personally destroy it. I have high hopes for you, so I don't want to see you fall easily," Zhu Jiang advised.
"Thank you, Senior. I will keep that in mind. If Senior doesn't mind, how about staying with my Shadow Kill Legion? I would like to invite Senior as a guest elder, and at the same time, Senior can take care of Zhu Wei," Yang Chen offered.
"Well, the Empire has been kind to me; I cannot betray my country," Zhu Jiang said with some hesitation.
"Senior's thinking is misguided. Although I killed Two Princes, it does not amount to treason; at least the Shadow Kill Legion is not treasonous. Do you understand, Senior?" Yang Chen stated.
"You mean... that's impossible!" Zhu Jiang exclaimed in surprise.
"Nothing is impossible, Senior; trust me!" Yang Chen said confidently.
"Emperor's power tactics?" Zhu Jiang asked in confusion.
"Yes, it's nothing unusual because Fan Ying Tian also stepped over his brothers' corpses to become emperor. Therefore, he must choose a strong person as emperor; that's why he hasn't established an heir all these years," Yang Chen explained.
"But Crimson Dragon is impossible; it lacks legitimacy and coherence," Zhu Jiang questioned in confusion.
"Lacks legitimacy? That day I already legitimized him as Crimson Dragon Prince! Lacks coherence? The luck of the Empire is no longer present; it's time to establish another prince! Who dares to say there is no legitimacy or coherence now? Anyone who does would offend Duke of National Defense Red Tianba! Now Fan Ying Tian has accepted this title because he knows that the throne will ultimately belong to his legitimate heirs," Yang Chen subtly revealed.
