Free Web NovelChapter 1173: Chapter 1167: Prelude to Unification
Two days later.
The Qin Dynasty issued a proclamation to unify all the heavens and realms.
On that day, countless figures flew out from the Imperial Capital, and even the troops stationed outside the city began frequent maneuvers, disappearing into the starry sky.
"Two years... no, at most one year, I can plant the Qin Dynasty’s banners in every corner of all heavens and realms!"
Inside the Deliberative Pavilion, Guo Jia looked at the battle plan in his hand and said with a smile.
He is the person in charge of this campaign.
For the current Qin Dynasty, the war to sweep across all heavens and realms can only be considered a small campaign; there’s no need for Qin Wudao to step in, Guo Jia alone is sufficient!
...
Once the Qin Dynasty’s proclamation was issued, the entire heavens were shocked.
Has the Qin Dynasty declared war?
Do they want to unify all the heavens and realms?
Many forces fell into panic, hastily convening high-level meetings to discuss what to do next.
The Dragon Clan.
The four Dragon Kings and leaders of various Dragon Clan branches gathered in a splendid palace, whispering in groups of twos and threes.
A quarter of an hour later, the Dragon Emperor entered the hall, sat on the emperor’s chair, and commanded sternly: "Deliver the order, from this day forth, the Dragon Clan and its affiliated forces shall all join the Qin Dynasty!"
The hall erupted with his words.
"Dragon Emperor, you must not do this!"
The Black Dragon King took a step forward, his face grim, speaking in a deep voice: "The Dragon Clan is one of the three ancient clans, innate divine beasts; how can we submit to the human clan?"
His tone was very firm.
"Indeed!"
"Our Dragon Clan’s bloodline is far nobler than the human clan’s; if we submit to them, where would the Dragon Clan’s dignity be?"
"Please, Dragon Emperor, reconsider..."
The strong members of the Black Dragon King’s faction immediately stepped forward and spoke up.
"Black Dragon King, do you mean for the Dragon Clan to continue being enemies with the Qin Dynasty? Do you think the current Dragon Clan still qualifies to be the Qin Dynasty’s enemy? I warn you, do not for your own selfish interests drag the entire Dragon Clan into an abyss!"
On the emperor’s chair, the Dragon Emperor’s expression remained unchanged, but there was a trace of impatience in his voice.
The Black Dragon King had tested his patience to the limit.
Every time there was a major decision in the clan, the Black Dragon King would jump out to oppose it.
Were it not for the Black Dragon King’s faction being strong and having done much meritorious service for the clan, he would have eradicated them long ago.
"Dragon Emperor, wise and clear!"
Seeing the Dragon Emperor’s anger, the Black Dragon King’s attitude changed dramatically; he respectfully saluted and returned to his position.
The Dragon Emperor gave the Black Dragon King a deep look, just as he was about to speak.
Right at that moment.
The void in the hall split open.
From the pitch-black endless void crack, the sound of hoofbeats echoed, loud and clear, making all the Dragon Clan strong members, including the Dragon Emperor, feel immense pressure.
"Guo Jia commands: execute the Black Dragon King!"
As the voice sounded, the eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun flew out from the space crack, surrounding the Black Dragon King with sharp killing intent, tearing the void apart.
"General, is there some misunderstanding here?"
Looking at the eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun, the Dragon Emperor felt some fear; he recognized the origin of this army, one of the most ancient forces of Qin Dynasty, with very high status.
So his tone was very polite.
"Misunderstanding?"
"Does the Dragon Emperor not know what the Black Dragon King has been doing?"
"Hundreds of years ago, he had already allied with the Dragon Clan of the chaos fringe world and had repeatedly declared they would be enemies with the Qin Dynasty!"
The leader of the eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun spoke to the Dragon Emperor in a calm tone.
"What?"
The Dragon Emperor’s pupils shrank dramatically.
Then he looked coldly at the Black Dragon King, deciding not to interfere with this matter.
The Black Dragon King secretly contacting the Dragon Clan of the chaos fringe world was a challenge to his authority, also indicating the Black Dragon King had long had second thoughts.
Even if the Black Dragon King had no second thoughts, what could he do?
Who dared to protect someone the Qin Dynasty wanted dead?
"Haha!"
At this moment, a cold laugh rang out, and the Black Dragon King spoke sinisterly: "And with just you people, you think you can kill me?"
With his words, he took out a crimson pill from his bosom and swallowed it.
As the pill entered his body.
A mighty aura erupted from the Black Dragon King’s body, emanating rolling black smoke.
In the blink of an eye, he broke through from late-stage Immortal Emperor to late-stage Immortal Sovereign, his fierce might overwhelming, causing the entire hall to collapse violently.
"Die!"
The Black Dragon King grinned, with a stabbing murderous glare in his eyes, his body soaring up, transforming into his true form, his dragon claw raised high, striking towards the eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun.
Heaven and earth trembled.
The void for millions of miles shattered completely.
This was pure brute force, an unmatched force.
"Kill!"
The eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun simultaneously raised their heads, their expressions calm, waving the crescent long knives in their hands, slashing out eighteen crescent blade energies.
In the next breath.
The arrogant Black Dragon King was shredded by the eighteen crescent blade energies, turning into fragments of a corpse, falling to the ground, dragon blood splattering, dyeing Changkong red.
After killing the Black Dragon King, the eighteen cavalrymen of Yan Yun did not leave but took out a name list from their bosom.
On the name list.
There were thousands of names.
All are Dragon Clan strong members who hold hostility towards the Qin Dynasty.
Next, it was a massacre.
Throughout the process, the Dragon Emperor stood by and watched, his lips moving slightly, wanting to stop but not daring to speak.
He understood this was the prelude to the Qin Dynasty’s unification of all heavens and realms, cleansing any creatures who harbored hostility towards the Qin Dynasty.
...
Above the Blood Moon Clan.
Li Yuanba held the Rumble Drum Golden Hammer, his eyes radiating fierce energy, revealing immense brute force, shattering the surrounding void inch by inch.
With sheer strength, one can break ten thousand methods.
With sheer strength, one can prove the great Dao.
With sheer strength, one can pacify the world.
The ultimate extreme of power can traverse nine heavens and ten earths, achieving an invincible honor.
"General Li, I am willing to take my own life to atone, begging you to spare my clan. I can guarantee, from now on, the Blood Moon Clan will never be enemies with the Qin Dynasty!"
The Clan Leader of the Blood Moon knelt on the ground, continuously kowtowed.
Behind him stood many strong members of the Blood Moon Clan, their eyes showing fear.
"The emperor has commanded: annihilate the clan!"
High in the sky, Li Yuanba spoke slowly, raised the Rumble Drum Golden Hammer high, and smashed down with force.
The immense brute force descended.
Extremely terrifying, overturning the heavens and earth, reversing the starry sky, twisting the universe.
All was being annihilated.
In the end, the Rumble Drum Golden Hammer fell within the Blood Moon Clan, killing all the Blood Moon people.
Elsewhere.
Within the Void Clan domain.
Wang Yangming hovered in the air, holding an imperial edict, loudly reading out: "The emperor commands: the Void Clan once helped the demon clan be enemies with the Qin Dynasty but was forced; therefore, the clan lineage can be preserved!"
"However, the Void Clan has been stained with the Qin Dynasty’s blood and is specially given to the Void Clan Leader to commit suicide, thus severing the evil cause!"
Commit suicide!
Standing on the ground, the Void Clan Leader sighed in relief upon hearing it.
"As you command!"
"I, thank the emperor for his grace!" freēwebnovel.com
He slowly knelt on the ground, accepting the imperial edict with the etiquette of a subject, then took out a dagger, and thrust it towards his chest.
Just as the dagger pierced his heart, Wang Yangming waved his right hand, releasing a gentle force that knocked the dagger away.
The Void Clan Leader was startled, looking at Wang Yangming in confusion.
"Congratulations, you’ve preserved the Void Clan!"
Wang Yangming smiled slightly, hands behind his back, walking towards the distance.
In place, the Void Clan Leader was stunned for a moment, then reacted, issuing a laugh of relief after disaster.
Meanwhile, those forces that were forced to be enemies with the Qin Dynasty, such as the Deity Clan and Yin-Yang Clan, were all pardoned by the Qin Dynasty.
But forces like Chaos Tribe and Purple Lightning Clan that actively became enemies with the Qin Dynasty were all liquidated, their clan heritage annihilated, completely disappearing from all heavens and realms.
