“The Xiang Family is indeed more troublesome. However, these big clans and factions have always valued benefits the most. As long as we ensure that their basic benefits are not affected, we have a 90% chance of convincing them to submit.”
In the Yu Nation’s capital, in the large conference room, Guan Zhonghua met the gaze of Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul and said excitedly.
“That’s right. The people below don’t know or understand, but as the imperial family, how could the Xiang Family not understand? No matter how much they resist and how indignant they are, they can only surrender. The Void World territories of the two countries have been fused into one. Unless they evacuate the borders of the two countries and go to other countries to live, they can only accept their fate!” Luo Xuangong nodded.
“Most importantly, the person who entrusted New Chu to our Martial Sage is Xiang Qingtian! The Xiang Family’s biggest backer, their ancestor, had gotten a new backer for New Chu in front of the world. As descendants of the Xiang Family, if they escape to other countries, how can they have the cheek to appear in front of others again? If they don’t even listen to their ancestor, who will associate and make deals with them?” Fu Neng chuckled.
“So, as long as we don’t touch the Xiang Family’s foundation, convincing them will be the easiest?”
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul pondered after hearing their thoughts.
“That’s right. There’s no need for you to come forward personally, Martial Sage. Old Luo and the others, no matter who goes, just one person will be enough to convince the Xiang Family to submit and cooperate with our subsequent actions,” Luo Xuangong said seriously.
Subduing New Chu was mainly about subduing the forces of the upper echelons.
The Xiang Family was the most important. As long as the Xiang Family submitted, it would be much easier to subdue the other three families.
Ordinary people might not know, but how could the upper echelons not know that after the two countries’ Void World territories were fused, they were only left with two options?
Either obediently accept their fate or leave.
Escaping to other countries was undoubtedly the most indignant for them.
They had worked hard for so many years. Their influence and financial resources were all in New Chu. If they suddenly retreated, these invisible strength and powers would disappear overnight.
No one would choose to do this until the last moment.
And staying was equally difficult. What they were most worried about was the benefits in their hands being seized.
Therefore, as long as they were basically immobile, it would not be difficult to subdue the upper echelons of New Chu.
With this in mind, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, it said seriously, “Then we won’t touch their foundation. However, in other aspects, they have to be on par with the Yu Nation. The imperial family will be dismissed and changed to the Xiang Family. I’ll be watching from the sky. If anything goes wrong, I’ll descend immediately.”
“Understood!”
Luo Xuangong, Guan Zhonghua, and the others responded in unison.
Excitement was written all over their faces.
Great news, this is great news!
Initially, they thought that it was a case of extermination by a Transcendent-grade expert. They did not expect things to turn around and become the annexation of a dynasty.
This dynasty was the powerful New Chu Nation!
As members of the cabinet, Guan Zhonghua and Luo Xuangong were like people sitting at home when a huge cake had fallen from the sky.
After the Yu Nation annexed New Chu, the dynasty they managed would double in size at once.
Such matters were simply too satisfying for politicians.
Which of them would complain that they had too much power?
They wouldn’t even feel tired of unifying the Eastern Continent, let alone annexing New Chu.
Martial Sages were only responsible for the safety of the dynasty and did not care about anything else.
Therefore, the people below were in an uproar and cheering. The cabinet big shots like Guan Zhonghua and Luo Xuangong were also extremely excited.
After some discussion, Luo Xuangong immediately led his team to New Chu to subdue the Xiang Family.
The experts of the Sacred Martial Hall followed behind and moved out in batches.
The experts were going along just in case.
Even if the Xiang Family submitted to them, it wouldn’t be easy to annex New Chu.
They could only say that they would try their best not to kill if they could.
It would be best if the transition was smooth.
Su Jingxing could leave the bases of New Chu’s Xiang Family and the other three major families alone, but the rest of their rights had to be taken away and decided by the cabinet.
Otherwise, New Chu would still be the same as before. This matter was non-negotiable.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul said that it would be watching from the sky. That was not consolation.
Instead, his Essence Soul had really returned to the Void World and its gaze was following Luo Xuangong on their journey.
Once Luo ZXuangong failed to subdue the Xiang Family, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul would descend immediately and destroy the Xiang Family.
The Essence Soul had a mission.
The Blood Doppelganger guarded the largest crematorium on the outskirts of the capital and extracted cards.
His main body also had something to do.
After obtaining all the information about New Chu from Guan Zhonghua, Su Jingxing returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain in Qinghe City. He closed the door and quickly flipped through them.
He had to find the hidden hand that Xiang Qingtian had left behind.
In the end, after flipping through all the information, he realized that there was no organization or faction that could possibly be part of Xiang Qingtian’s secret scheme.
If there was, it would be the Xiang Family.
Apart from that, there were three hidden danger zones in New Chu that were quite terrifying.
These three places were: the Ice Wind Valley, Dark Moon Heavenly Abyss, and Blood Eye Cliff.
In any of the three perilous lands, one would not be able to come out again.
Even an expert at the peak of the first-grade who had condensed a Divine Embryo would lose contact after entering.
Other than this, there was very little information about these three locations.
Su Jingxing thought for a moment after reading the information.
He took out Martial Arts Practice Cards and cultivated the Divine Light Projection Technique.
This martial art was different from other soul skills. It was so magical that one could do remote monitoring, and could also be used in the physical state.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul needed to keep an eye on the Xiang Family, the other families and major factions in the New Chu Nation.
As long as his main body cultivated the Divine Light Projection Technique, he could still examine the three perilous lands from afar.
After using more than ten Martial Arts Practice Cards, he reached the Advanced level.
A soul skill of this level was about enough. Su Jingxing immediately used the Divine Light Projection Technique. According to the detailed location of the three perilous lands provided in the information, he condensed rings of light.
The first ring targeted the Ice Wind Valley.
In the image, strong winds that filled the sky danced in the air like ice blades, sweeping through the entire valley.
In the huge Ice Wind Valley, other than the strong winds that froze life in a few seconds, there were no other living creatures.
Yes, there weren’t even any plants, let alone animals.
This was a true land of peril. No one knew how it was formed.
The second ring targeted the Dark Moon Heavenly Abyss.
It was an underground abyss that was more than 300 miles long, a few hundred meters wide with an unknown depth.
In the image, Su Jingxing saw nothing but deep darkness.
The circle of light could move, from top to bottom, or left to right.
Then, he followed the abyss. Less than 500 meters down, he could no longer see anything.
Su Jingxing wouldn’t know what was going on in the abyss unless he went there personally. He took a few glances from a distance and put away the ring of light.
After all, maintaining the Divine Light Projection Technique consumed a lot of soul power.
The third ring targeted the Blood Eye Cliff.
It was a cliff, but half of it was on the surface and the other half underground.
The cliff was blood red and covered in strange black moss.
Looking down at it from the sky, there was nothing outstanding. However, when he got close to the cliff, even from ten thousand miles away, Su Jingxing could feel an invisible terror suddenly impacting his mind!
