Chapter 266 Imperial Edict of the Holy Emperor

"We are the envoys of the Southern Holy Dynasty, specially here to announce the imperial edict of the Holy Emperor!"

One of the envoys, a silver-armored general, spoke with a voice that was not imposing but still filled with anger, evoking a sense of awe.

The Southern Holy Dynasty?

The Holy Emperor?

The entire capital city was in an uproar, and even the Qin Emperor widened his eyes, his face filled with astonishment.

It had long been rumored that there was a higher power above the imperial dynasty, but no one had expected the existence of the Holy Dynasty.

Bai Jinxing couldn't help but furrow his brows and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect His Majesty to attract the attention of the Holy Dynasty so quickly."

At this moment, two figures flew in from the direction of the imperial palace, they were Ao Wu Jian and Lei Zhenzi.

Ao Wu Jian's face was filled with shock and disbelief, while Lei Zhenzi frowned as he scrutinized the two envoys of the Holy Dynasty. A true immortal might pose a threat to the Qin Emperor.

Seeing the Qin Emperor remaining silent, one of the envoys of the Holy Dynasty said in a deep voice, "Kneel down and receive the edict!"

Damn it!

The Qin Emperor's heart suddenly exploded with anger. He had just ascended to the throne today, and now they wanted him to kneel in front of everyone. Were they deliberately trying to suppress him?

Little did he know that the envoys of the Holy Dynasty were not doing it on purpose. The Holy Dynasty was the supreme ruler of the entire Southern region, and anyone had to kneel before the imperial edict of the Holy Emperor.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for drawing three Great Expanding Pills!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for drawing a Heavenly-grade Spatial Scroll!"

Two consecutive system prompts sounded, but the Qin Emperor's attention was focused on the two envoys of the Holy Dynasty, and he didn't pay attention to what he had drawn.

Feeling the gazes of the people and cultivators on both sides of the street, the Qin Emperor furrowed his brows slightly. If he knelt now, even though the other party was an envoy of the Holy Dynasty, he might not appear as legendary in the eyes of the people. At least he had something to fear, and there were people he needed to kneel to.

But not kneeling now would be a direct confrontation with the Holy Dynasty. Damn it, offending the Abyss Gate and now offending the Holy Dynasty, the Qin Emperor estimated that it would be a miracle if he didn't die a thousand times over.

Just as the Qin Emperor hesitated, Lei Zhenzi suddenly spoke, "Today is the day of His Majesty's ascension to the throne. If you have anything to say, please do so quickly. I hope we can avoid any unpleasantness."

As soon as these words were spoken, the two envoys of the Holy Dynasty subconsciously looked at him, and their pupils suddenly contracted. Under their spiritual perception, Lei Zhenzi exuded an overwhelming aura of danger, making them break out in a cold sweat involuntarily.

"Are you Lei Zhenzi?" one of the envoys of the Holy Dynasty frowned and asked, clenching his fists unconsciously.

In recent days, Lei Zhenzi had become a prominent figure in the entire Southern region, especially within the Holy Dynasty, where his reputation had spread far and wide.

They had seen An Yansha of the Abyss Gate, and they had looked up to him with reverence. Now, this strange man with wings in front of them had actually crushed An Yansha. It was evident how powerful he was.

Lei Zhenzi did not answer, but just stared straight at them, making them break out in a cold sweat on their foreheads.

"In that case, we will begin to read the imperial edict of the Holy Emperor." one of the envoys of the Holy Dynasty said, unable to withstand the pressure, and turned to address the Qin Emperor.

Although they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they dared not show it. A cultivator at the level of a Golden Immortal was the pinnacle existence in the entire Southern region, and they couldn't afford to offend him.

The Qin Emperor raised an eyebrow. He was very curious about what imperial edict the Holy Emperor would issue to him.

"From this day forth, the Qin Emperor and the Qianyue Kingdom are to be included as vassal states of the Holy Dynasty, under the protection of the Holy Dynasty!"

The voice of the envoy of the Holy Dynasty deliberately amplified, making it clear to everyone in the capital city, like a thunderbolt on a clear day, causing the entire city to boil with excitement.

"What does this mean?"

"Idiot, the Holy Dynasty must be higher in status than the imperial dynasty. It looks like our Great Qin Kingdom is going to prosper!"

"Is it true? Why have I never heard of the Holy Dynasty before?"

"Anyway, I feel those two people look very formidable."

"Tsk tsk, no matter how formidable they are, they still cower in front of General Lei!"

The Qin Emperor's eyes narrowed. They actually wanted to subdue him. However, given the current situation of the Great Qin Kingdom, it did indeed need a protective umbrella.

Thinking about it, he laughed and said, "Thank you, Holy Emperor, but the Qianyue Kingdom has already been renamed the Great Qin Kingdom!"

"These are all trivial matters. Please sign the official documents with us." one of the envoys of the Holy Dynasty said, wanting to leave the Great Qin Kingdom as soon as possible and not face Lei Zhenzi again.

"In that case, come with me to the imperial palace!" the Qin Emperor waved his sleeve and said, then entered the sedan chair. Seeing this, the two envoys of the Holy Dynasty couldn't help but furrow their brows, but they didn't say anything and could only follow the imperial palace guards.

The storm was thus calmed, but the appearance of the Holy Dynasty in the Southern region was bound to shake dozens of kingdoms in the vicinity, as the envoys of the Holy Dynasty had not appeared in this area for hundreds of years.

"System, continue to summon gods and demons, I've used up two chances!"

After sitting down, the Qin Emperor said directly in his mind. Today was his day of great joy, and his luck was definitely not bad, so he didn't bother to accumulate five summoning chances before merging.

"Ding! Now begin the random summoning of gods and demons..."

I hope for one with literary prowess and one with martial prowess!

For literary prowess, I hope for Jiang Ziya, and for martial prowess, I hope for Sun Wukong or Erlang Shen.

The Qin Emperor couldn't help but fantasize. If it were true, he would be able to laugh even in his sleep.

Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen need no introduction, they are well-known powerful figures.

Jiang Ziya is even more incredible. In historical legends, Jiang Ziya was the most powerful literary figure, even surpassing Zhuge Liang. During the reign of the Zhou Dynasty, which lasted over seven hundred years, it was the first in Chinese history. In the novel "Fengshen Yanyi," Jiang Ziya was even more extraordinary, wielding the list of deities and sealing most of the immortals and gods in the Heavenly Court!

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for summoning Li Cunxiao!"

The Qin Emperor's eyes widened suddenly. This guy was actually summoned!

Wang Bu Gao, Jiang Bu Li!

Bu refers to Xiang Yu, and Li refers to Li Cunxiao!

In the legends, Li Cunxiao had the strength of over twenty thousand catties in one arm. In the late Tang and Five Dynasties period, he was equivalent to Li Yuanba in the early Tang Dynasty, an existence that was equally overpowered!

Equivalent to doubling Li Yuanba, but definitely not as dumb as Li Yuanba!

Soon, Qin Jun furrowed his brow again. The Li Yuanba he summoned was the reincarnation of the Golden-winged Great Peng Bird, hence possessing the cultivation of an Earthly Immortal. Although Li Cunxiao had immense strength, it was quite obvious that he couldn't compare to the deified Li Yuanba.

Just as he was about to have the system pull up Li Cunxiao's attribute list, another system prompt sounded:

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for summoning Liu Bowen!"

Damn!

It's actually this guy!

Qin Jun couldn't help but open his mouth wide. Liu Bowen was a super force who helped Zhu Yuanzhang unify the country, a renowned military strategist, politician, and literary figure from the end of the Yuan Dynasty to the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. Like Zhuge Liang, he was deified from generation to generation, and there were even legends suggesting that Liu Bowen was a heavenly being reincarnated from the Jade Emperor, knowing the past five hundred years and the future five hundred years!

There is a saying in Chinese history: "With Zhuge Liang in charge of three parts of the world, and Liu Bowen unifying the country."

It's clear how much Liu Bowen was revered in each era.

With a combination of leaders like Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen, the Great Qin Kingdom would have a hard time not rising!

In addition to super generals like Li Yuanba, the Red Boy, Lei Zhenzi, Xu Gui Ku, and Guan Yu, Qin Jun even felt the urge to immediately go to war with the Southern Zhuo Dynasty!

From this day on, his subordinates were no longer just simple-minded, brawny muscleheads!
