In Serene Region’s Regional Governor Manor…
The previous regional governor had surrendered a long time ago. The person who was now living amongst this stretch of exquisite building clusters was naturally Serene Region’s current person-in-charge and dominator—Prince Xin, Fang Yingtan.
Prince Xin had just reached 40 years old. In addition to his domineering martial arts cultivation as well as his experience and attributes, he was currently at the pinnacle of his lifetime.
Furthermore, on his way here, he had crushed the various tribes in the plains and taken over both Serene Region and Beiyuan Region. He had been invincible, all-conquering, and undefeatable. Even the feudal vassals from afar sent envoys to establish friendly relationships with him.
All of these seemed to show Prince Xin’s bright prospects. It also caused the many subjects in the two regions to make up their minds and join his side.
Right now, Prince Xin was wearing a headgear and a python robe 1 . Each and every one of his movements had a prestigious flair that seemed to grow more prestigious by the day, causing his servants and subjects to become increasingly respectful.
He threw a glance at the booklet in his hand and laughed, “Everyone, my son has made advances as a vanguard. Thankfully, his martial arts aren’t bad and he has taken down the Divine Martial Pass. His troops have reached the Divine Capital.”
A military officer stepped out and said with a smile, ” Congratulations, Prince Xin. With your son taking down the Divine Martial Pass and reaching the Divine Capital, those people there must be scared out of their wits by now, unable to sleep at night.”
A few other officials immediately followed suit to fawn over and congratulate Prince Xin.
Prince Xin smiled and did not say anything. It was only after they had all finished talking that he spoke up, “Although Wangshu has 30,000 elites under him, the Divine Capital is the imperial court’s core after all. It will be impossible for him to take down the Divine Capital with just several ten thousand Imperial Guards and the two experts, He Wanzhou and Wang Yong.”
He then looked toward a general in white armor and said, “Ye Ran, lead the Abyss Tiger and Steel Formation armies to provide Wangshu with assistance. On this day next month, I want to be seated in the Hall of Supreme Harmony 2to discuss matters.”
Ye Ran stepped out, cupped his hands together, and replied solemnly, “Your subordinate receives the order.”
Prince Xin nodded, feeling satisfied. Ye Ran was the strongest general Prince Xin had under him, a Disha Realm expert who had cleared 72 acupuncture points. With Ye Ran leading the two powerful Abyss Tiger and Steel Formation armies, even a Tiangang Realm expert would not be able to do anything to them.
Moreover, Ye Ran was an orphan whom Prince Xin had taken in at a young age. He had an undoubted loyalty toward Prince Xin.
After making arrangements for Ye Ran, Prince Xin drew out another document and tossed it on the table, saying, “The envoy sent by Li Region’s Wang Daoran said that Wang Daoran wishes to marry his daughter to Wangshu. What are your thoughts about this?”
Wang Hai—the leading civil official under Prince Xin and also a pinnacle Disha Realm expert—stepped out and said, “The situation in Li Region is one where two tigers are competing for the top position. Wang Daoran and Regional Governor Ning Baichuan are fighting each other. Wang Daoran probably can’t hold on anymore and thus wishes to join forces with us.
“The Li Region is southward of Jing Region—a place our army must fight for. That Regional Governor Ning Baichuan is from the Mountain River Sect, and he is an unbridled character. If he were to defeat Wang Daoran, then it’s very likely that he would be even less willing to submit to us.”
“Old Wang is saying that we should go with the political marriage?” Prince Xin’s finger knocked on the table rhythmically.
Everyone in the hall started discussing this matter like the Divine Capital was already in their hands and that they needed to quickly come up with a plan to deal with Li Region.
However, before the many officials came up with a conclusion, one of Prince Xin’s trusted subordinates went up next to him and whispered next to his ear.
At the next moment, an explosive sound rang out from under Prince Xin’s feet, causing the marble flooring in the hall to explode into fragments.
