Chapter 128: Casting a Sword into a Plow
In the cave, Jiang Bingkun had almost collapsed at this moment, facing his brother's grave, the endless fear in his heart had been fully released, and the nightmare hidden in his heart had finally become a reality.
Dai Mengli and the others also arrived at this dilapidated cave under the leadership of Shi Xuan and saw the scene in front of them.
Jiang Bingkun was too frightened, lost too much essence and blood, and finally gradually lost consciousness, his face was distorted for a while, and the fear in his heart was fully expressed, and a heroic emperor finally ushered in the end, and he finally paid the price for his brother back then.
Jiang Yuheng knelt in front of his father's grave and said, "Father, I came to see you again, this time I brought the culprit of the year, and you can rest in peace."
Soon outside the cave, Jiang Bingkun's guards also found this place and killed it, but what they saw was a hideous corpse lying on the ground.
"Jiang Bingkun is dead, if you want to live, you can be arrested immediately, otherwise you should also go and accompany him", Lin Zixu said.
"My brothers and I have received the emperor's favor since childhood, and now he died tragically here, we can't take revenge in time, and we must also take back the body and bury it well, follow me", the guards who took the lead wanted to snatch the body.
Lin Zixu and Shi Xuan immediately stopped them, but Jiang Yuheng said: "Let them take them away, Jiang Bingkun is dead, the grudge between us will end completely, you can take his body, but you will never be allowed to return to the Danyang Empire, otherwise I will definitely hunt you down to the ends of the earth", Jiang Yuheng said to these loyal guards.
Hearing Jiang Yuheng's promise, the guards who took the lead gave up resistance, and several people walked forward to carry Jiang Bingkun's body, and the guards who took the lead said: "Thank you Your Highness for your kindness, we will definitely keep our promise and never return to the empire", several guards disappeared into the night with hundreds of corpses.
Jiang Yuheng has finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish and avenged many of his dead relatives, and the Danyang Empire will also be reborn in his hands.
At the foot of Wuyun Mountain, the army led by Shen Ye finally arrived at the last moment to surround Jiang Bingkun's imperial city guard army, Jiang Yuheng released the news that Jiang Bingkun was dead, these armies lost their monarchs at once, and they no longer had the will to fight, and they chose to surrender one after another, Jiang Yuheng completely swept away the last turmoil in the empire.
The remnants of the ministers who had killed the former emperor led by Wei Wou-Ki were on pins and needles at the moment, and they took advantage of the chaos to escape, but they were quickly captured by Shen Ye's army, and now they will not be able to escape justice.
The next day, Jiang Yuheng ordered Shen Ye to relocate the body of the former emperor from the cave in Wuyun Mountain, and returned to the imperial tomb with the army.
In the imperial mausoleum, Jiang Yuheng led the ministers to launch the Longzhong sacrifice ceremony, and he officially announced the complete end of Jiang Bingkun's notice.
The Danyang Imperial City once again returned to its former peace, and many subjects were able to live in peace again, Jiang Yuheng moved into the Imperial City and began to rectify the military and political affairs of the country.
Jiang Yuheng and many ministers of Li Jiye's relics are discussing the matter of rebuilding the country: "Your Highness, if you are stable today, Jiang Bingkun is dead, the country cannot be without a king for a day, you should make plans early", Li Jiye said.
"Now the country is full of devastation, the first task should be to revitalize the dynasty, the formation of a group of talented people, since Jiang Bingkun took power, the court has been guarded by many rabble, this time I will leave the matter of promoting talent and energy to you to deal with", Jiang Yuheng said.
"Minister, obey the order," Li Jiye said.
"Your Highness, now that the country is still mixed with dragons and snakes, and many of Jiang Bingkun's remnants have not yet been cleared, perhaps we must strike while the iron is hot and eliminate them in one fell swoop to avoid future troubles," a minister said.
"This matter will be handed over to General Shen, and all those who do not surrender will be eliminated," Jiang Yuheng said.
Soon, Jiang Yuheng, with the help of Li Jiye and other ministers, quickly rerecruited a large number of pillars of the country, reorganized the government, and Shen Ye in the army was also actively purging the remnants of Jiang Bingkun, and soon the Danyang Empire was finally firmly in his hands.
After Jiang Yuheng overthrew Jiang Bingkun's rule, the four empires withdrew their aid one after another, and since then the four empires have been at peace, and Jiang Yuheng promised many allies that his empire will implement a good-neighborly policy, make friends with neighbors, and never invade.
During these days, Shi Xuan and many senior brothers were also very happy, they lived in the imperial city and rested peacefully for many days, and now the affairs are handled by the ministers of the court, and they don't have to do anything at all.
Shi Xuan, Zhao Zhuo, and Zhong Ling climbed the observation deck established by Jiang Bingkun to enjoy the great scenery of the Danyang Empire.
"Shi Xuan, we've been waiting for a long time, now we can finally relax, this imperial city is worthy of being the first in the world, standing on this towering observation deck and even having a panoramic view of the entire imperial city, Jiang Bingkun will really enjoy it", Zhao Zhuo said.
"These luxurious buildings are built by the blood and sweat of hundreds of people, and I don't know how much blood and sweat was spent for these?" Han Yunxi said.
"Senior Brother Jiang will definitely fulfill his promise, and I also believe that the Danyang Empire will be carried forward in his hands," Shi Xuan said.
"If Senior Brother Jiang stays here forever as the emperor, then wouldn't our Tianhua Sect have one less Senior Brother?" Zhong Ling said.
"Actually, this is also normal, the ancestors of the Tianyang Empire and the ancestors of the Tianheng Empire are actually from our Tianhua Sect, and they are inextricably linked with us, many royal family members of their two countries have practiced in our Tianhua Sect, if the senior brother chooses to take charge of the Danyang Empire, our Tianhua Sect will also strengthen our power", Shi Xuan said.
"Besides, he is our senior brother one day, and he will be in the sect for the rest of his life, whether he is in the sect or not," Zhao Zhuo said.
"After the matter here is over, it is time for us to set off to Beicang and fulfill our promise," Shi Xuan reminded.
"Yes, with the benefits of our family, it's time to do something for the Witch King," Zhao Zhuo said.
Jiang Bingkun was defeated, and the news of Jiang Yuheng's successful restoration soon spread all over the world, and countless civilians who fled the war outside received the news and rushed back to their homes thousands of miles away, although when they returned to their hometowns, the war had already destroyed their houses, and countless neighbors had disappeared forever, but life still had to go on, and countless people on the land were busy rebuilding after the war.
As the domestic government of the Danyang Empire gradually returned to normal, Jiang Yuheng finally ushered in the enthronement ceremony, even if he wanted to give the throne to Jiang Yulin, he still needed to firmly control the government before he had a chance.
Shi Xuan and the other envoys of the four empires witnessed the birth of a new country in the palace of the Danyang Empire, and Jiang Yuheng ascended the throne and successfully restored the country.
The people of the imperial city of the Danyang Empire beat gongs and drums to celebrate the advent of the new era, Jiang Yuheng ordered the execution of Wei Wuji and several other culprits to warn these powerful ministers, and he issued an edict of amnesty to the world, announcing that the people would be exempted from taxes for three years, and all the people would recuperate.
The Danyang Empire finally regained its peace, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment again, as did the four empires, the war brought them too many scars to make up, and without ten years, it would be difficult for them to make up for this turmoil.
With the subsidence of the war in the Southwest Continent, the allies led by Tianhua Sect, Shenjian Valley, Continental Ranger, and Jingyue Sect also achieved their goal of forming an alliance, and with the dissolution of the alliance, their respective disciples have returned to the right track, but the friendship they have formed in recent years has been preserved forever.
The many forces have once again returned to their original starting point, and the era of competition and mutual checks and balances has come again.
In the imperial city of the Danyang Empire, although Jiang Yuheng was heroic and magnificent on the surface, and had reached the pinnacle of imperial power, he did secretly complain bitterly, and his will to practice freely has been tormented, and the king of a country needs to deal with too many things, especially when the country has just resumed war, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt.
He has been busy these days, but fortunately, Dai Mengli has been by his side, otherwise he will collapse sooner or later.
Dai Mengli looked at Jiang Yuheng, who was exhausted, and said, "What's the matter, it's only been a few days since you became the emperor, and you look like this?" Dai Mengli said with a smile on her face.
"Even you are angry with me, Shi Xuan and the others are idle all day long, I am about to be driven crazy by these trivial affairs these days, I really can't be the emperor", Jiang Yuheng finally felt the cold from the heights.
"Hey, look at the other powerful ministers in this world, which one doesn't covet this throne? If they hear that you don't even want to be the emperor, they will probably be angry with you behind your back," Dai Mengli said with a smile.
"It seems that I have to deal with these things as soon as possible, and hand over this burden to Jiang Yulin, I am optimistic about him, and the Danyang Empire will definitely be able to regain its glory in his hands in the future," Jiang Yuheng said.
"It's up to you, I will support you in whatever you decide anyway, if you choose to continue to be the emperor, our Tianhua Sect will not even have a senior brother, how cost-effective it is, how sad my father is", Dai Mengli said.
"Then if I urgently need to stay in the Danyang Empire, will you be sad", Jiang Yuheng asked.
"I heard that Jiang Bingkun has married several concubines, do you also want to marry several concubines?" Dai Mengli asked.
"How dare you, it's enough to have you alone in this life", Jiang Yuheng pulled Dai Mengli into his arms, and the two quietly enjoyed a rare time together......
After Shi Xuan and them took them for a while, there was no major event in the Danyang Empire, and they had no reason to continue to stay, many disciples had already chosen to return to the sect, and their actions this time could be regarded as completely completed.
The Han Yunxi brothers and sisters originally wanted to leave with the other rangers, but because they had an appointment with Shi Xuan, they decided to deal with the affairs of the Beicang Wizard Clan together.
Shi Xuan and the others walked in the territory of the Danyang Empire, and found that since the border was reopened, many merchants on the continent had reappeared on the land of the Danyang Empire, and many famous trade routes had become lively again.
Shi Xuan and the others walked everywhere all the way, and found that there were very few rogues in the empire now, and the domestic environment was much better.
"This is all the credit of the senior brother, in fact, many bandits and rogues are also forced to be helpless to go up the mountain and fall into the grass for the cowards, now the people live and work in peace and contentment, who wants to be a bandit," Zhao Zhuo said.
"Senior Brother Jiang will also be recorded in history by their historians, and we can be regarded as meritorious people," Zhong Ling said.
The purpose of their group was to go to the deep mountains of Beicang again, where there were Wu clan affairs waiting for them to deal with, they did not choose to return to Tianhua Sect first, but set off directly from the Danyang Empire to the north.
Liuyun City, a big city in the north of the Danyang Empire, Shi Xuan and they walked all the way north to the vicinity of Liuyun City, and they also wanted to see the world-famous city.
However, just when they were about to arrive here, something strange happened in a big mountain here, there were spirit beasts coming down the mountain to hurt people, and some people even said that they saw a huge ice phoenix, and they chose them to pass by here, and they couldn't bear to see these villagers being hurt.
"Brother Han, we have to take care of this matter, Senior Brother Jiang has just restored the stability of the country, if these spirit beasts make trouble again, it will undoubtedly bring them great harm", Shi Xuan and they decided to sacrifice this matter.
Liuyun Mountain is a very famous mountain range near Liuyun City in the north of the Danyang Empire, and its fame is not below Wuyun Mountain, and even Liuyun City is named because of this mountain range.
Recently, countless people in this mountain range have said that there is a rebellion in this mountain, and many mercenaries and civilians have been killed, and many people are panicking.
Shi Xuan and the others asked a lot of nearby villagers about the situation, and in a village and town, Shi Xuan came to live with an uncle and asked, "Uncle, can you tell us what happened to Liuyun Mountain in the past few days?"
"Little brother, you strangers, get out of here quickly, there are so many demons, several people died in our village, they originally went up the mountain to collect elixir, and then they were brutally killed by demons, and they died so miserably", the uncle said.
"Then have you seen what those demons look like?" Shi Xuan asked.
"I also said that the people who survived in the village were lucky, they said that these demons had never seen them at all, their bodies were translucent, their whole bodies were wrapped in strong air currents, their eyes flashed with thunder, their faces were hideous, their bodies were a few feet high, our villagers were swept into the air directly by the hurricane he blew up, and then they fell to their deaths," said the old man.
"What else is there besides this demon?" Shi Xuan asked again.
"There was a hunter who came back alive and said that he saw a huge ice phoenix sweeping over the mountain and a huge demon fighting in the mountain, it was very terrifying, he almost couldn't come back, but fortunately they fought together, and there was no air to control him, so he took the opportunity to go down the mountain, you go quickly, it will be unlucky to stay here." After the uncle finished speaking, he hurriedly ran away.
"Brother Han, is there really a phoenix in this world? It's still ice", Zhao Zhuo couldn't believe it.
"The Phoenix Clan, in history, is the two major divine beast families on a par with the Dragon Clan, and they were famous in ancient times, but no one has seen them for thousands of years, who knows whether it is true or not, maybe what they saw was just some ordinary ice-based fierce birds, and they were recognized as phoenixes," Han Yunyi said.
"I've only heard of the phoenix being reborn from the fire, I haven't heard of the ice phoenix, and I don't think it's credible, maybe it's really just an ice-based spirit beast as Brother Han said", Shi Xuan didn't believe it either.
"Shall we go up the mountain to investigate?" asked Han Yunxi.
"Don't you rangers all care about these things, and it's okay to slow down the affairs of Beicang for the time being," Zhao Zhuo said.
"Since you have encountered it, of course you have to take care of it, otherwise how can you be worthy of our title of ranger?" Han Yunyi said.
They came to the village and brought out the detectives, and they inquired a lot and got similar information.
"Brother Han wants to find clues, we can only go into the mountain, these demon beasts have all run away after the chaos", Shi Xuan said as they looked at some of the houses destroyed by the demon beasts.
"Liuyun Mountain is not small, I heard that there is a strong wind here all the year round, and it is changeable, there have been many people in distress on this mountain for countless years, we should be careful, I guess there is any special ancient race awakening to make trouble everywhere, if we rashly break into the mountain, I am afraid that we will break into their ambush", Han Yunyi said cautiously.
Han Yunyi led a few people towards the towering Liuyun Mountain, the mountain here was steep, and when they reached the middle of the mountain, they felt strange.
"Brother Han, although the aura on this mountain is abundant, but I always feel that the aura is extremely weird, and it seems that the wind element is extremely vigorous?" Shi Xuan's soul perception is sensitive, although he is not good at the control of the wind element, he still senses something unusual.
"I have seen fire spirits in the blazing Tianyan Rift, and I have also seen water spirits and thunder spirits, if my guess is correct, there should be a large number of wind spirits on this Liuyun Mountain, and these wind spirits should be the source of this chaos", Shi Xuan had a bad premonition.
"Let's investigate, shall we?" said Han Yunyi.
Shi Xuan They climbed along the steep peak, they didn't choose to fly, the wind here was extremely terrifying, if they provoked any powerful spirit beasts, it might be dangerous, they chose to move forward secretly, and they didn't dare to trespass.
As they climbed higher and higher, the Gangfeng on the top of the mountain was extremely strong, and it was difficult for ordinary civilians to resist at all, and it was no wonder that so many people were blown down the cliff by the Gangfeng and fell to their deaths.
"Look?" Zhong Ling pointed to the sky in the distance, the sky was extremely distorted, a large area of thunder was shining, and the depths of Liuyun Mountain seemed to be wrapped in some powerful energy, which was very similar to the enchantment they had seen in the Oolong Mountain Range.
"Could it be that there are any ruins here?" Shi Xuan looked at the terrifying scene in front of him.
"The wind element here is extremely violent, it seems that the source is a place wrapped in energy in the deep mountains, I'm afraid there is a huge danger there?" Han Yunxi worried.
"Let's get a little closer and see if we can find some chaotic wind spirits," Shi Xuan said.
Just as they were walking forward, an extremely terrifying demonic wind instantly surrounded Shi Xuan's five people at once, and the huge force suddenly swept them into the turbulence in the sky.
Several people were blown away by the gang wind at once, Han Yunxi had just advanced to the Heavenly Vein Realm, and he was not familiar with flying at all, so he was suddenly confused.
"Brother save me", Han Yunxi couldn't control her flight, the strong wind swept her towards the extremely high cliff, her head was about to fall downward, and once she fell, she was likely to fall to her death.
At this time, Han Yunyi was extremely far away from her, and he himself was also struggling to control his flying attitude, and it was difficult to make a move for a while, just at the moment when Han Yunxi panicked, a huge flame shackle wrapped around her slender waist, and pulled her over at once, he finally recovered from the loss of soul, and Shi Xuan's precise flame shackle played a miraculous effect at the critical moment.
Shi Xuan held Han Yunxi's hand tightly to prevent her from being swept away by Gangfeng, and tried to control the direction of his flight.
Han Yunyi was relieved when he saw that Shi Xuan had saved his sister, and tried to get rid of Gangfeng's attack, Shi Xuan shouted to the panicked Han Yunxi: "Hurry up and use your spiritual power, I can't support it alone."
"I can't control my body, I can't do it?" Han Yunxi had just reached the Heavenly Vein Realm and couldn't fly freely like them, she stiffly controlled the direction of her flight, and suddenly a more intense demonic wind swept Shi Xuan and Han Yunxi into turbulence, and their bodies fell directly down.
Han Yunyi and Zhao Zhuo's faces changed all of a sudden.
"Cheer up, you can do it, otherwise we will all die", Shi Xuan could not resist the demon wind alone, and he encouraged Han Yunxi to cheer up.
Han Yunxi looked at Shi Xuan, who was dead and didn't let go, almost fell off the cliff with her in order to save her, she finally mustered up the courage, urged the exercises to run, and controlled the staff to support her body, which stopped the downward trend.
"Think about yourself like a free-flying bird, you don't care about this wind, I'll block it for you, you can control the direction of flight and fly upwards," Shi Xuan said to her calmly.
Han Yunxi tried several times in a row, and almost got involved in the turbulence again, but fortunately, Shi Xuan kept helping him correct the direction, "That's right, control the balance, don't look at your feet, look at your front, grasp the direction, be careful of those turbulence", Shi Xuan pulled Han Yunxi while resisting the constant wind.
Han Yunxi finally found the feeling of flying, and the trajectory of her flight was finally coherent, undulating on the ground.
"How did you learn how to fly with such a balance?" Shi Xuan asked.
"Well, it's much better, the wind was too strong just now, I didn't control it well", Han Yunxi turned his head to look at Shi Xuan and said.
"Be careful, look ahead, ah", the moment Han Yunxi turned his head, a turbulent current suddenly blew the two of them into a huge boulder, and the two of them threw it on the stone fiercely, but fortunately, the terrain here is not high.
Both of them lay on the stones fiercely, and Shi Xuan's forehead hit a big bag, "Oh, it hurts me to death", Han Yunxi shouted.
"Didn't I tell you to look ahead, why did you turn your head to look at me? it hurts now", Shi Xuan looked at the poor Han Yunxi and said.
"Am I stupid, I can't even control such a simple flight", Han Yunxi almost cried.
"Uh, did it hurt somewhere, it's okay, we're on the ground," Shi Xuan comforted.
At this moment, Zhao Zhuo also firmly grabbed Zhong Ling in mid-air and tried to control the direction, flying towards the ground, Han Yunyi saw that the two people on the ground were fine, so he flew forward to the source of the chaos, a huge wind elemental spirit with a height of five zhang was attacking them.
