"First, bring up Li Cunxiao's attribute list!"
Qin Jun suppressed his excitement and said in his heart. His excitement was not for Li Cunxiao, but for Liu Bowen. Perhaps Liu Bowen was unfamiliar to many people, but anyone who had looked up his information knew how awesome he was. In his past life, Qin Jun had been a fan of the Ming Dynasty, so he had a simple understanding of Liu Bowen.
There was already a Li Yuanba, and even Hong Haier and Lei Zhenzi. His passion for Li Cunxiao naturally wouldn't be too high.
Soon, Li Cunxiao's attribute list appeared in front of him:
"Li Cunxiao, from the legends."
"Race: Iron Stone Spirit!"
"Cultivation: Fourth level of Earth Immortal Realm!"
"Technique: Iron Stone Refining Body Technique!"
"Artifact: Yu Wang's Spear!"
"Divine Ability: Iron Stone Body! Invincible Soul!"
"Loyalty: 99 (full value 100)!"
Iron Stone Spirit?
Qin Jun blinked. Li Cunxiao actually had the cultivation of the Earth Immortal Realm. He suddenly remembered the legend of Li Cunxiao descending to the mortal world as an iron stone spirit. It seemed that the system had summoned not the ordinary Li Cunxiao, but the resurrected Li Cunxiao in his iron stone spirit form.
It seemed that Li Cunxiao could truly unleash his unparalleled power in this cultivation world!
Li Cunxiao was not like Lu Bu or Guan Yu. Like Xiang Yu and Li Yuanba, he was invincible in one-on-one combat. No matter how many warriors the opponent sent, he could win. Lu Bu was defeated by the Three Heroes, and Guan Yu was even worse. They were no match for Li Cunxiao. According to the legends, when Li Cunxiao was dismembered by five horses, he brought back all five horses alive!
Xiang Yu was forced to commit suicide at the Wujiang River, and Li Yuanba was struck by lightning.
However, an iron stone spirit couldn't compare to a golden-winged roc. It seemed that the deified Li Cunxiao couldn't compete with Li Yuanba.
"Bring up Liu Bowen's attribute list as well," Qin Jun continued in his mind. He hadn't expected Li Cunxiao to give him a surprise with his Earth Immortal Realm cultivation and nearly full loyalty.
Liu Bowen, whose real name was Liu Ji, with the courtesy name Bowen, was more well-known than Liu Ji.
"Liu Bowen, from historical legends."
"Race: Human!"
"Cultivation: First level of Transcendence Realm!"
"Technique: Divine Machine Divination!"
"Special Attribute: Divine Machine Divination, Strategic Planning, increases the luck of its master!"
"Loyalty: 99 (full value 100)!"
Qin Jun marveled. He hadn't expected Liu Bowen to have the cultivation of the Transcendence Realm. Although still not enough to impress him, it was slightly stronger than Zhuge Liang. Both were strategists, and cultivation wasn't crucial for them. The key was his luck enhancement, which piqued Qin Jun's interest.
It seemed that he would be luckier in his future summoning and drawing.
He then waved away the attribute lists in front of him and asked in his mind, "What are the uses of the Great Yan Pill and the Heavenly Space Scroll that I obtained earlier?"
"The Great Yan Pill can increase the host's cultivation by a hundred years, and the Heavenly Space Scroll can transport the host to a location tens of miles away in any direction, simply by tearing it."
The system's response made Qin Jun widen his eyes. The Heavenly Space Scroll was a treasure for escaping, and the Great Yan Pill was also good. Three Great Yan Pills were equivalent to increasing his cultivation by three hundred years.
Three hundred years of cultivation was equivalent to him practicing ordinary Qi cultivation for three hundred years.
How many three hundred years did a person have?
Today was truly his lucky day, whether in drawing or summoning!
...
As evening approached, Qin Jun sent the two envoys of the Southern Dynasty and the Proud Swordsmaster out of the palace, with Lei Zhenzi and Shen Yan following closely behind.
"I won't see the three of you off. Take care on your journey," Qin Jun said with a smile and a bow, but he was bleeding inside.
Damn, the Southern Dynasty was really asking for a lot!
Although he had returned the Great Qin Kingdom to its vassal state and even sheltered it, the Great Qin Kingdom had to pay a very high tribute to the Southern Dynasty. Fortunately, the Proud Swordsmaster had given him a million third-grade spirit stones.
But Qin Jun could only endure it because the Southern Dynasty truly was the overlord of the Southern Region, even surpassing the righteous and demonic paths. Even the nine demonic lords had to give face to the Southern Dynasty.
And the entire Southern Region had only one Southern Dynasty.
"Thank you, Emperor Qin," the two envoys bowed and said, their faces expressionless. If it weren't for Lei Zhenzi keeping watch, they wouldn't have allowed Qin Jun to address them as "us."
The Proud Swordsmaster shook his head and smiled, then quickly disappeared into the sky.
"By the way, is Miss Zhu Yanqing here?" one of the envoys suddenly asked.
Qin Jun was taken aback. Did they know Zhu Yanqing?
Suddenly, the mysterious background of Zhu Yanqing came to mind, and his heart surged like a hundred thousand divine beasts running wild. Could Zhu Yanqing's background be related to the Southern Dynasty?
"Why are you looking for her?" Qin Jun frowned and asked. The way they asked made it clear that they knew Zhu Yanqing was acquainted with him, and he didn't bother pretending otherwise.
"Tell her that she should return to accept the inheritance of the Spirit Maiden!" the envoy said mysteriously, then he and his twin brother disappeared on the spot, leaving no trace.
The inheritance of the Spirit Maiden?
Qin Jun was puzzled, so he instructed Shen Yan, "Go and bring Miss Zhu over."
"Yes!" Shen Yan quickly bowed and left.
Then Qin Jun soared into the air and flew towards the direction of the celestial prison, with Lei Zhenzi accompanying him.
...
The lowest level of the celestial prison.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, he has confessed. It is said that there is a secret branch of the Abyss Gate in the Unclaimed Land, where there is a teleportation gate leading to the headquarters."
Sitting in his chair, Qin Jun pondered as he sipped his tea. "The Unclaimed Land, huh?"
The Southern Sea Holy Sect, to which Zhu Yanqing belonged, was located in the Unclaimed Land.
"It seems I need to make a trip to the Unclaimed Land," Qin Jun muttered to himself. He looked at the bound Mogu Jie, a mysterious smile on his face that was difficult for ordinary people to fathom.
Mogu Jie has already been disabled by Lei Zhenzi, and although his physical strength remains, he is now as vulnerable as an ordinary person.
"If you lead me to that portal, I will spare you," Qin Jun said with a mocking smile.
Xiao Zhulong must be rescued, and time is of the essence. Otherwise, unimaginable consequences may occur.
That evening, Qin Jun summoned all the civil and military officials of the capital to begin the conferment of titles for Lei Zhenzi and others.
Lei Zhenzi was appointed as the Grand General of Divine Might, a first-rank position, while the Red Boy was appointed as the Great King of Holy Infants, also a first-rank position. Both of them could command all the armies except for the Imperial Guards and the White Robe Army!
Li Yuanba, Li Bai, Sha Wujing, Tai Bai Jin Xing, and Guan Yu were also ranked as first-rank officials. Of course, in terms of status and strength, at least Guan Yu would not consider himself on par with Lei Zhenzi and the Red Boy.
Xu Gui Ku was appointed as a second-rank official and continued to serve as his enforcer. Chen Qingzhi was appointed as a third-rank general, and almost all the original officials were demoted. Some were happy, some were worried. Although their status had declined, they still looked forward to the future of the Great Qin Kingdom.
Daji was appointed as the Empress, Xiao Li as the Imperial Consort, and Zhu Yanqing as the Noble Consort.
At the same time, he issued a decree of great significance, which was that the Canglan Kingdom would be incorporated into the Great Qin Kingdom from tomorrow onwards, and there would be no more Canglan Kingdom from then on!
