The people living here have also been tempered by the harsh nature into an unyielding, icy willpower. The Northwest Five Nations Alliance has been allied for mutual protection against the powerful kingdom of Jing for many years.
Several small nations banded together, directly confronting the Imperial Army. They had never retreated for years, making it a legendary tale.
But in the Jingguo Western Expansion War that broke out at the end of last year, the battles of Jingmu and Qixia followed one after another. Jingguo had no time to spare, and the Northwest Five Nations Alliance suffered heavy losses.

More than half of the Gao Kingdom and half of the Liao Kingdom were swallowed by the Jing Kingdom.
When Xue Guo's winter emperor Xie Ai appeared out of nowhere, challenging Jing Guo's dragon martial generalissimo Zhong Jing, Jing Guo decisively defeated Mu Guo. This finally ended Jing Guo's fierce westward expansion war.
People in the snow country swore that Emperor of Winter, Xie Ai, was the reincarnation of the Frost Fairy King Xu Qiuci from two thousand years ago. This historically created the myth of reincarnation, which some believed and others didn't.
But to the Five Nations Alliance of the Northwest, whether or not it was true didn't matter, the existence of the Winter King was important. It was more important that the Winter King was willing to step forward.
The Northwest Five Nations Alliance desperately needs the power of the Snow Country now. The present-day Northwest also desperately needs another True Dao Immortal! The so-called Northwest Five Nations Alliance consists of the Liao Kingdom, Zhen Kingdom, Gao Kingdom, Tie Kingdom, and Han Kingdom. Among them, Tie Kingdom is the strongest, with a True Monarch ancestor in existence. Although he usually retreats into seclusion, his presence alone carries a sense of intimidation. The Gao Kingdom is the weakest, possessing only two Divine Manifestations before the westward expansion war.
Of course, both the Grand Tutor Yu Jingqiu and the current High Country's ruler grew up amidst the battles against the strong armies of Jing Country. They were far stronger than the average small country's Divine Lin, and they were not comparable to those weaklings who relied on a single person to support their sect.
It is a pity that Gao Guotai, Yu Jingqiu, ever since the accidental death of his only son, has been utterly despondent. This tragedy stems from a scroll titled "The Whirlwind's Lament" found within the Nine Chapters Jade Tablet of Chu's Mountains and Seas realm.
He had intended it as an opportunity for his son, but his son died because of it, and the jade bi lost its way.
The fierce military leader of the Chu state, Wu Xi, personally went to Gao Guo to demand a jade bi. When he was unsuccessful, he became furious and, in front of the officials of Gao Guo, slapped Yu Jingqiu hard across the face, leaving him humiliated.
Much effort and deliberation ended up being counterproductive, failing to achieve anything desired. It not only damaged one's reputation but also inflicted emotional pain.
In the subsequent Jing Country Western Expansion War, Yu Jingqiu personally participated in the battles, fighting bravely several times and even seeking death. However, he ultimately did not die, but instead, Gao Guo became the country with the heaviest losses in this war....
The disparity in strength was too great, and throughout the campaign, General Cao Yu, acting as Jingguo's commanding officer, constantly toyed with him. Even Tai Shi Yu Jingqiu, once a figure of unparalleled prestige in Gao Guo, found himself deeply resented by the people for a time.
He, however, could not retreat, could not abandon his country, and could not sacrifice himself. He could only persevere through it all. For the present Great Nation had already retreated to the precipice. If he were to lose him as a support, the nation would be utterly destroyed...

Jing Guo was a military court empire. The so-called military court was similar to a council of military leaders. Of the Six Protectors, Seven Guards, and Thirteen Armies, except for those directly controlled by the royal family, the rest enjoyed great autonomy.
Of course, the dignity of the imperial Tang clan remained supreme in Jing State.
Most of the territory of the Gao Guo is now divided and controlled by the Jing Guo's swift cavalry and sharpshooters.
The former belonged to Xiahoulie, the Cavalry General of Great Commandery, and the latter belonged to Caoyuan, the Commander of Arrow Division.
Although neither of them will be stationed here, as soon as the flag is planted, no one from Gao Guo will dare to approach. Even just their subordinate brave generals would be enough to sweep across the current Gao Guo.
>
It is hard to imagine the willpower and state of mind with which Yu Jingqiu held onto the last shred of dignity of this nation.
Millennia hence, perhaps someone will re-evaluate him, perhaps no one will remember him, perhaps even the high nation will cease to exist. But his choice, it lies here.

His whole life, at this moment, is imprinted.
In the palace gardens of Gao Guo, which were even simple by common standards, furnishings were sparse, with bows and swords hung on the walls. Li Bangyou, the prince of Gao Guo, who was not yet nine years old, knelt rigidly before a desk, studying diligently.
I am reading Volume 3 of the *Jinglüe* chapter in
《Shí Dāo Zāo Hǎi》.
While nodding my head, I suddenly thought of something. I furrowed my brows, put down the book in my hand, and respectfully performed a disciple's salute: "Master, I have a question."
Sitting at the head of the table, Yu Jingqiu drew his attention from national affairs, struggling to dispel his weariness and said gently: “Your Highness, please ask.”
Li Bangyou's voice was childish and clear, innocent and naive: "When students read history, they often see records from the past. Comparing ancient times with the present, my heart is very uneasy, and I don't know what to do."
Yu Jingqiu glanced at him and said, "Tell me in detail."
Li Bangyou then sat up straight and asked, "How is the situation after the defeat" Yu Jingqiu replied without hesitation, "Punishment."
Li Bangyou then asked, "How should we deal with lost land" Yu Jing replied, "Cut it off."
Li Bangyou asked again, "What if a ruler fails to govern the people" Yu Jingqiu replied in a low voice, "Depose him." Li Bangyou followed up, "What if a ruler fails to govern the country" After a moment of silence, Yu Jingqiu said, "Destroy it."
“The student didn’t quite understand.” Little Li Bangyou raised his head, and for a moment, he stood tall and straight, his crown seeming to scoop up the sunlight: “How can someone who has lost land, mismanaged the government, failed diplomacy, lost battles, still sit here in front of me and teach me about studying, being a good person, and governing the people”
Yu Jingqiu's eyes, for a moment, became sharp and piercing, but immediately after, they fell into a sorrowful decline.
Many people have scolded him, so he's used to it.
Here is the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
From esteemed to reviled, all within the span of a single war. He acknowledged his defeat.
But he never expected that the prince, whom he had personally tutored and who was not yet nine years old this year, would curse him like this. Ordinary people can scold him, soldiers can scold him, colleagues can scold him…… But Gao Guo Li Shi, who clearly knows how much he has paid, what he has done, and what he has taken the initiative to bear, has the qualifications to scold him, Yu Jingqiu
But what could a prince, not yet nine years old, possibly know
Li Bangyou's words may reflect the attitude of the high national master! "You······be presumptuous!"
His heart was cold, his spine slightly arched, staring sternly and weakly at Li Bangyou: "What this old man has done for the country, heaven and earth can witness. How dare you, a young upstart, insult me! Who taught you these words Why not speak them to my face!"
>
"No one taught me, reading makes things clear!" Li Bangyou rose to his feet, reached out and adjusted his jade crown, then pointed accusingly at Yu Jingqiu and demanded, “You, Minister Yu, for your own selfish desires and for the sake of your useless son, coveted the Nine Chapters Jade Tablet, leading you to offend the mighty nation of Ba! You have spent your life seeking fame and fortune. On the battlefield, you claimed to want to die gloriously, but in reality, you cowered and made peace. You used the land of Gao Guo to gain Cao Yuxi's favor, deceiving the people below and the heavens above! What justice from heaven and earth How dare you speak to me so boldly!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Yú Jǐngqiú's face, at this moment, flushed to the extreme. He stood up, with his cultivation reaching the level of a divine realm, his hand trembling: "I sought the Jiǔzhāng Yu bì, and I accepted the consequences myself. My son died, and I kowtow to the people of Chu! What have I done wrong to your Li family"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
He roared angrily at King Gokoku: "Your Majesty, a sovereign ruler, dare you not meet your loyal old minister A true emperor should speak with wisdom and virtue. There is no need to have a child relay your message, sullying the heart of our future ruler! The loss of mountains and rivers can be remedied, but can a filthy heart truly be cleansed!
He was sincere here.
It is impossible for him to hear the king's plea. After all, King Li Ji of the 可國 personally went on a diplomatic mission to the Tie country to request aid from the Five Nations Alliance leader.
Pity Yu Jingqiu, he thought that everything behind him was orchestrated by the former High Kingdom ruler Li Ji. He believed that he had served Li Ji faithfully for half his life and harbored resentment towards him, which is why he was in so much pain.
After the supernatural powers blossom, the seven souls replace each other, and the main body is one while the secondary body is seven. This is the ultimate limit.
Every identity is based on a single soul as a substitute. Starting from this soul, it gradually replaces the three souls and seven souls, even the body and mind, finally merging into one's destined path.
In Qi State, Zhang Linchuan had already exhausted one identity on Lei Zhanyan.
And the last identity, he temporarily left vacant, not eager to use it, just waiting for the best harvest. If there was no such excellent opportunity, he would leave it to his original self.
>
The other five identities have already been deployed to various locations, each developing for a considerable amount of time.
Now, one master with five deputies, six bodies crossing the tribulation of life and death together. Clouds converge and dragons and tigers contend! Different cultivation levels, different identities, different destinies, and the crisis of life and death is also different.
Just like Yang Chongzu of State Qiao, who had already reached the realm of Divine Presence and was also the son of the current vice prime minister. Following the established procedures, it wouldn't be difficult for him to annex State Qiao. The real difficulty lies in finding the right time afterwards, offering Qiao State to Qin or Chu, and successfully rising to the ranks of a hegemonic state.
Of course, there isn't that much time left now.
With Yang Chongzu's strength, only by challenging Baihuan Lady Min Youning within the imperial city of Qiao Guo and provoking the order of the entire Qiao Guo could he truly face a life-or-death crisis.
As for Prince Li Bangyou of the Gao Kingdom, due to his age, his body did not possess excessive strength. However, because of his princely status and his young age, it was very difficult to encounter a life-threatening crisis no matter how he sought death. Anything bad he did would be considered to still have an opportunity for correction...
If he directly provoked Lord Li Ji, the ruler of the state, or the generals of Jing State's famed archers, seeking death would easily become a real death. And with his individual strength, he was completely incapable of self-defense.
Grand Tutor Yu Jingqiu would be a good choice.
Very dangerous, yet there is a glimmer of hope - as long as he grasps the changes in people's hearts and political influence.
When the War of Western Expansion in Jing State broke out, during a time of chaos and upheaval, he took Li Bangyou's place. Using the excuse of being frightened, he stayed in bed for an extended period, thus enduring the initial awkwardness of taking over someone else's life.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Following the development path of the Crown Prince of Gao Guo, the Lord of Gao Guo, and the leader of the Northwest Five Nations Alliance, this identity is also a smooth road in the future.
Now, however, it has to erupt prematurely, sharing the same body through life and death tribulation.
As he took on Li Bangyou's identity, the person he interacted with most was Yu Jingqiu, and the one he understood best was also Yu Jingqiu. He saw all of Yu Jingqiu's pain, guilt, and struggles.
So every word in each sentence pierced Yu Jingqiu's heart!
At this moment, he was merely a nine-year-old prince acting foolishly. He shouted loudly, "How dare you still proclaim yourself the emperor and slander my father! A traitor who betrays his country and commits such evil acts deserves nothing but death. Jing Qiu! If I were you, I would smash my head against a wall to preserve my honor!"
Yu Jingqiu glared, his face a mixture of emotions: anger, sorrow, pain, and disappointment.
Here is the translation:

Li Bangyou was startled and stepped back in fear.
>
Just then, there was a rhythmic pounding of footsteps.
A squad after a squad of soldiers, brandishing their swords, charged directly into the palace gardens. They surrounded the prince's study, making it impossible to enter or leave.
Prince Li Bangyou of the Gao Kingdom retreated while pointing his spear forward: "Grand Tutor Yu Jingqiu intends to rebel and harm the crown prince. I, a loyal son of the Gao Kingdom, will kill him with my own hands!"
Even before today's reading, he, in his capacity as prince, had secretly used the seal, forged an imperial decree, and secretly mobilized troops nearby. Once the appointed hour arrived, he led them to surround us.
With just these warriors' strength, they certainly couldn't kill Yu Jingqiu who was in the realm of a god. But would Yu Jingqiu really resist If he dared to wreak havoc in the imperial garden, Yu Jingqiu wouldn't be rebelling or anything close to it. His reputation for integrity would be ruined in an instant.
For Li Bangyu, who had almost no individual combat strength yet, his situation in this process was extremely dangerous because his life and death depended largely on Yu Jingqiu's choice.
But it's worth a shot!
There are many things that can be done to one's head, of course, a coup is one of the most dangerous choices. Throughout history, usurping the throne and fighting for power, were not all bloody and brutal, with heads rolling everywhere.
Li Bangyou wasn't sure if Yu Jingqiu was disciplined enough and loyal enough. Though his analysis was thorough and had been verified many times, only in a life-or-death situation would one truly see their nature. He was even more uncertain about Li Ji, who was already on his way back to the country, whether he would let him go. Li Ji respected Yu Jingqiu very much, and Gao Guo desperately needed him right now.
But this was the only tribulation he could overcome as Li Bangyou. It was a solution he had pondered over for a long time!
This ordeal was first brought about by Yu Jing, followed by Li Ji. His life and death were ultimately in the hands of others, and he could only rely on his identity as Li Bangyou to navigate this situation. For someone accustomed to controlling every aspect, this was the most unbearable tribulation for him.
But is there any perfect solution in this world
He, a man who has climbed his way to where he is today step by step, has long been accustomed to taking risks.
Li Bangyou forced himself to retreat calmly, his youthful face betraying fear. His small frame was almost invisible amidst the towering tide of samurai.
But when he looked back at the palace from outside, his cold eyes reflected the mottled walls of the palace and the surging crowd. And this country's chief minister, the first master in the realm······
...and it didn't come out.
This is a test.
Yu Liangfu retracted his gaze that had been looking far into the distance.
The four characters "White Deer Academy" glittered in the sunlight, flowing with brilliance. As the young man shifted his gaze, they were left behind him.
"Hey! You country bumpkin!" a voice with an air of arrogance shouted, "Go gather up the targets!" It was followed by a chorus of laughter.
A group of people surrounded a person and walked past Li Liangfu.
White Deer Academy is a subordinate academy of Qingya Academy, and it can even be said to be the best affiliated academy. Every year, several outstanding students successfully enter Qingya Academy for further studies.
At this moment, surrounded by a throng of people, Li Yuwu is the most hopeful candidate of this year, and there is even a high probability that he will become Qingya's direct disciple.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
And Yu Liangfu, was merely the dullest student in Bai Lu Academy.
>
He's no good at writing poetry, he's no good at writing prose, his calligraphy is poor, his swordsmanship is weak, he's incompetent in everything.
While others can remember everything they read, he only remembers the end and forgets the beginning. And he remembers the beginning and forgets the end. When it comes to the same article, Li Yumu could recite it after reading it once, but even after reciting it for five or six days, he still stumbles over it.
Why he offended Li Yuwu was already forgotten, it was simply a lack of discernment. So being frequently bullied was also a matter of course.
At first, I tried to resist, but each time I was beaten even worse.
Once, he was bullied too severely, beaten half to death and kicked into the river. He nearly died. After being pulled out, he had a serious illness, and after that, he became even more taciturn.
He no longer resists being bullied, taking all the beatings and insults passively.
Over time, it didn't really mean anything. Li Yuwu wasn't bullying him much anymore, just occasionally giving him tasks to do. Like today, after his fellow disciples finished practicing archery, he was told to clean up.
What's so normal about it
To everyone's surprise, Yu Liangfu sitting on the steps didn't move, not even glancing this way. "Hmm" Li Yumu turned his head: "Aren't you moving" "Are you deaf" his subordinates shouted.
There was also a more eager-to-please senior brother who rolled up his sleeves and walked over: "You surnamed Yu, Senior Brother Li is speaking to you, can't you hear him"
"I wanted to play with you all properly······" Yulian finally turned his head, looking at them. A helpless smile appeared on his usually stoic face: "But I don't have time now."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“What do you mean no time” Li Yuwu, in a bad mood, turned around directly, drawing his bow and nocking an arrow in one smooth motion, aiming at Yu Liangfu. “Get your ass over here! One step slower, and I’ll put a hole in you, believe me or not”
Whack-a-mole is a very interesting game. Shooting arrow after arrow at the back of the mole, forcing it to scurry around like a rabbit, is also a kind of fun.
That fellow disciple who was rolling up his sleeves had already walked up to Yu Liangfu and slapped him with a curse: "No time, no time! Are you going back to mourn your family or something Ahhhhhhhh! Ah!"
Yet, his slap was easily caught by Yu Liangfu. Then, with a twist, his wrist bone snapped. With a shudder, his entire arm cracked and popped, completely broken!
He painfully knelt before Yu Liangfu, howling in agony. He cried and trembled, desperately wanting to flee.
But his wrist was still tightly grasped by Yu Liangfu, unable to break free at all. He was like a twisted, struggling dog. His own right hand had become the shackles that imprisoned him.
"Yu Liangfu! Let go!" Li Yumu tensed the bowstring, the arrowhead gleaming coldly: "Otherwise, I'll kill you and have my say too!"
He hadn't called him Yu Liangfu in a long time, and he never thought that he would bring it up again, especially not at this moment. Yu Liangfu obviously didn't consider it an honor.
He still dragged the man on the ground as if he were slaughtering a dog, while sitting himself motionless on the stone steps, his eyes staring calmly at Li Yuwu, as if betting on this person's courage.
Li Yuwu could no longer hold back. Dao Yuan surged within him, and the arrows flew from his bow! Swoosh!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Yu Liangfu stomped down with one foot, crushing the man in front of him along with his spine. He leaped into the air, moving like a dragon soaring through the sky. He snatched the incoming arrow out of mid-air and shattered the celestial power infused within its shaft.
Li Yuwu only felt a flash before his eyes. The once so weak Yu Liangfu had rushed to him, and in his hand was the arrow he had shot, now acting as a dagger, swiftly and decisively piercing his heart!
His precious garments, his flesh, were as thin as paper. The inner court was collapsing!
Dao Yuan is scattering!
The elegant Confucian robe was instantly stained with fresh blood.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Li Yuwu's eyes were filled with fear. He was still young, he had a bright future ahead of him, he didn't want to die! "Cover it," Yu Liangfu said softly.
He naturally took his hand, teaching him step-by-step how to grip the bow tightly and cover his heart, his expression very calm: "Don't be nervous, it's not that easy to die."
Li Yumu wanted to apologize, to beg for mercy, but fresh blood surged into his throat, and all he could manage was a gurgling sound. He clutched the arrow embedded in his heart, his back veins bulging with exertion! The thirst for life conquered all.
This is the English translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He covered his wound tightly, refusing to let too much blood flow out. His body, losing strength constantly, slid downwards, like mud collapsing. But Yu Liangfu was considerate and grabbed his hair, pulling him up.
With just this one hand, he carried Yu Liangfu, the most promising student of Bailu Academy, expressionless as he stared at the few dumbfounded brothers. He said softly: "I remember... didn't Brother Li Yumu have a father who was a Divine Transcendence Realm expert"
After receiving a nod in reply.
He raised his chin and said in a low voice, "It's you. Go call him. Come save his son."
>
This body's innate talent is really terrible. After replacing it for so long, I've only cultivated to the outer courtyard realm.
But since he was the one controlling this body, even an ordinary Divine Manifestation cultivator would find it hard to put him in mortal danger. He couldn't possibly defeat them in a fight, but escaping would be far too easy.
So he continued to pull at Li Yuwu's hair and turned his head to look at the other person: "Isn't the Dean in the reeds on the back mountain"
After receiving a trembling response, he said again, "Go and report." After sending two people on errands one after the other, Yu Liangfu looked around. Wherever his gaze fell, everyone was silent as a mouse.
He smiled. "Get lost. Complain all you want, report me to the authorities, bring in reinforcements – do whatever you can to give me some excitement. Otherwise, you're all going to die today."
He said the threat in a gentle voice. Then with a squeeze of his hand, "Bang! Bang!" Still clutching at his heart, Li Yuwu's head exploded like a ripe watermelon.
A green rind, a red flesh, and black seeds, held in the palm of a fair hand.
It's not watermelon season, but this slice is perfectly cut, vibrant and bright. Red lips have bitten into the juicy red flesh.
The scarlet watermelon juice flowed down her plump lips, with an alluring trail. It caused the men watching her to swallow their saliva in unison.
The swan-like neck that stretches upward, the deep mountains that rise and fall. All the beautiful scenery in the world is here, where can I find someone today to replace those from the past
Even the intense scorching gazes, all bore it.
Luo Huahua ate the melon with a charming posture, but sighed softly in her heart.
A good identity, the most important thing is its upper limit, followed by its entry point.
The higher the upper limit, the more possibilities there are. The better the entry point, the more natural the replacement.
Apart from that, height doesn't matter, beauty doesn't matter, and gender doesn't matter.
He chose to replace his body because he saw the development potential of the San Fen Xiang Qi Lou and its intelligence network. At the time, he noticed the organization's transformation and concluded that it would grow significantly over the next twenty years.
That's why he chose Luo Huanhuan and diligently practiced his charm arts. However, the organizational structure of the Three-Point Fragrance Pavilion was different from what he had imagined, and its internal secrecy far exceeded his expectations. Therefore, after mixing in for so long, he still couldn't squeeze into the inner circle, let alone become a Heart Fragrant or Heavenly Fragrant.
After finally grasping a crucial opportunity and seeing the glimmer of hope, there was no more time... It was a life-or-death ordeal, a life-or-death ordeal.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He hasn't figured out the bottom of the Sanfen Xiangqi Building yet. If he wants to go inside and make trouble, using Sanfen Xiangqi Building to cross the tribulation, there is almost no chance of success.
But in this small town now, who could Luo Huanhuan offend Who could threaten her "Damn it!"
Luo Huahua cursed suddenly, and in the astonished eyes of the men around her, she casually threw the finished watermelon rind on the ground.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The sound of watermelon rind breaking apart was like a war trumpet blowing. Boom boom boom boom boom!
All the doors and windows, both upstairs and downstairs, slammed shut suddenly.
>
Luo Huanhuan extended her slender jade hand and effortlessly grabbed an old man's neck. With a casual twist, she tore it off!
She laughed hysterically amidst the torrential blood, “Today, this old woman will unleash a massacre! I'll seek enlightenment through killing. Let me see who dares to exorcise demons within a radius of a thousand miles!”
It was a place of pleasure and extravagance, tightly shut up on this day. Who knows what went on inside How wildly they must have partied! Several distinguished guests came by, but couldn't get the door open, so they could only grumble angrily and leave in disappointment. A coachman waiting outside in his carriage suddenly saw something flowing out from under the door. He leaned closer to take a peek and nearly jumped out of his skin in fright.
That's blood!
The vivid and brilliant blood serpents slithered out of the cracks in the door and onto the street, thousands upon thousands gathering together. Suddenly, they surged into a torrent, surging like a river.
Wow wow wow!
Roaring, it swept past the coachman and engulfed the entire street! Luo Huahuan went on a killing spree, slaughtering until the sun was blotted out, and blood flowed like a sea, staining the city.
The waves churned, chasing each other into the distance.
The establishment of the Zhenhai Alliance has been for some time now, and the landscape of the nearby islands seems to have undergone a drastic transformation. But upon closer inspection, it appears as if nothing has changed at all.
Especially for the Jiuxuanmen. When Weixi created the Zhenhaimeng, their Jiuxuanmen was the second to respond, at least counting as a "minister from the dragon."
The benefits, it is true, were shared. But there were too many outstretched hands. Those behind them, with the Fourth Elder of Dihai Tower, Gu Huai Xin, in decline... they arrived early only to find a late gathering.
Immediately following, Chongjia Island was forcefully reclaimed by the Tian family. The harvest was far from enough to compensate for the losses.
I thought that after the establishment of the Zhenhai Alliance, the ten sects would have more say. But in fact, nothing has changed.
Maritime affairs were still largely controlled by the three powers of Qi, Diaohanghai Pavilion, and Yanggu. Their ranking varied.
Weizhun summoned the strong, and returned after beheading Wan Tonglong's horns, earning himself great prestige. But in truth, it only slightly delayed Qi state's expansion overseas.
Qi State didn't even bother with overseas matters recently, but the defeat of Xia was such a spectacle. Who among the nearby islands wouldn't be terrified
Now, a cough from someone on Jue Ming Island at the Alliance meeting would cause ripples throughout the entire Azure Sea Alliance. Let's not speak of those matters for now.
As the great guardian of Jiuxuanmen, Shang Jian'an personally hosted a banquet for Li Daorong, the leader of Nuqing Gang, at the mountain gate today. It was also in preparation for possible changes in the nearby islands.
Li Dao-rong was just an ordinary outer sect disciple, nothing to pay attention to.
But Li Daorong's backing, the Nudge Whale Gang, was large in number and had great potential.
This Numinous Whale Gang is quite interesting, they've been developing on Xia Dao Island and have made a name for themselves through their vast network of members. Their original protector, Hai Zong Ming, died at the hands of Jiang Wang in Qi State. Their guardian sea beast was also killed by Jiang Wang who went out to sea. They have a truly fated, albeit unfortunate, connection with Jiang Wang.
It could hardly have been worse. For a time, there was even danger of total collapse.
Unexpectedly, their old nemesis, the Wuxian Gate, was wiped out overnight.
>
The members of the Nu Whale Gang were bewildered and dumbfounded, yet they single-handedly seized ownership of Xia Island. Afterward, they brought the entire Xia Island with them and joined the Zhenhai Alliance, thereby securing massive support and entering a period of rapid development. It was during this time that Li Dao Rong rose to prominence, advancing from the inner mansion to the outer building, even retaining the possibility of becoming a divine apparition. Moreover, his methods were quite impressive, wielding significant influence within the Nu Whale Gang.
The leader of the Nuqing Gang was still around, but Shang Jiani could see clearly that the Nuqing Gang now answered to Li Daorong. As the great protector of Jiuxuanmen, he had been close friends with Li Daorong for a long time, calling each other brothers. This time, he even invited Li Daorong into the mountain gate for hospitality.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
For three whole days, he was treated like royalty. I hinted at my intentions many times, but he remained deliberately ambiguous. He neither agreed nor refused.
Shang Ji'an decided to be straightforward and talk directly about the merger of Jiuxuan Men and Nuqing Gang.
He took a jade wine pot carved with a giant carp, and personally poured a cup of wine for Li Daorong, his voice gentle: “Daorong, how do you think your elder brother treats you”
"Need I say more" Li Daorong said, slightly tipsy, "You are my dear elder brother!"
Shang Ji'an clinked his glass with him, his emotions brimming as he said, "Dao Rong, you are a talented person. You're underappreciated in the Nuqing Gang! Your Nuqing Gang is too small and has been bullied terribly by the people of Qi! When I heard about how Jiang Wang had acted arrogantly and bullied you back then, I still felt sorry for you!"
“That’s right, that’s right, who could say otherwise” Li Daorong also followed with a few words of grievance. He turned his eyes to Shang Ji'an and looked at him with bright eyes: “Brother Shang, you specially mentioned this today, do you want to help your younger brother find that worthless Marquis Wuan, to get revenge”
Shang Ji'an cursed inwardly, calling the other person a cunning fox.
"Let's not talk about the Qi people. That's a matter for the Lord and the leader of the alliance. But we ourselves also need to consider things, don't we The sea is turbulent, and it will be difficult to have peace in the future. If our two families join forces, we will have people, money, who would dare to bully your Angry Whale Gang As for you, Li Daorong…... Your elder brother thinks you deserve a position as a guardian of the Jiuxuan Gate!" Li Daorong laughed drunkenly a few times.
Shang Ji'an thought he would continue to encounter this person's evasions, prevarications, and attempts to downplay the situation. But the other party suddenly stopped his wine glass and looked over formally: "Brother, let me be frank with you... Can the revered Master Jiu Xuan return today"
Shang Ji'an cursed inwardly, "What kind of thing are you Do you even deserve the Sect Master to communicate with you personally"
But thinking of the grand scheme of the sect, he finally just smiled and said: "Of course, the master values your talents very much. The meeting of the Zhenhai Alliance has ended, and he will be back tonight!"
"That's good." Li Dao-rong said with a smile. "Then I think I'm ready!" "Hahahahaha...."
Brother Shang and Brother Li looked at each other, raised their cups, and laughed heartily, showing their genuine friendship. Splash, splash, splash.
The sea breeze rolls outside the building. The tides of the sea never cease outside the island.
Restlessness is the eternal state of the sea.: "Father is here to find you for a serious matter, not to beg for money.">He paused, then nonchalantly added, "How much Anything less than two ounces just doesn't matter."Zhong Xuan’s eyes were still...
