760 Where the Heart Leads To (1)
Clouds shimmered, spreading across the horizon, creating a magnificent and breathtaking scene of resplendent brilliance.
The colors of the clouds were also changed, permeating a golden glow and hanging high in the sky, as if bearing witness to this grand ceremony.
The roaring of the four-clawed golden dragon echoed, releasing even more radiance, and faintly, there were large illusory figures of past generations of county governors, as if they were all present, witnessing everything.
However, they were only phantoms formed by fortune.
In addition, there were showers of spiritual energy, falling upon the earth and completely dispersing the remaining anomalous substances.
Countless plants grew healthily and all living beings in the capital city felt their cultivation bases rising. Some of their chronic illnesses and injuries also started showing signs of recovery.
It was as though a golden age had arrived.
This scene caused all the cultivators here and everyone in the city to cheer.
There were also representatives sent by the various races in Fenghai County. When they saw this from afar, they couldn’t help but feel reverence.
Even the Quasi-Immortal Race lowered their heads respectfully.
Outside the platform, some of the generals from the Imperial Capital’s army who accompanied the Seventh Prince showed fervent expressions. To them, the Seventh Prince had led them to victory and allowed every general to achieve extraordinary feats.
This also included the generals of the three palaces.
The Deputy Governor stood there, gazing at the sky, and a tinge of nostalgia appeared in his expression. It seemed to hold memories, as if he had once seen someone achieve similar feats, and even surpass it by far, in a bygone era.
‘It’s fine. Everything has returned to its rightful place. My Lord, after the completion of the transaction with the Holy Wave Race, within three days, I will be able to offer all the beings in Fenghai County, extracting the supreme karmic fruit formed from their fortune, and present it to you.’
The Deputy Governor smiled and muttered inwardly. Even someone as scheming as him couldn’t help but feel some waves in his heart. However, the trance formed by this recollection quickly dissipated from his face.
He continued to smile gently, and the crow’s feet at the corners of his eyes became even clearer.
Xu Qing, who was at the back of the crowd, also lifted his head and stared. However, what he was looking at wasn’t the Seventh Prince but the huge statue of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether.
Another sentence echoed in his mind.
“Sword Holders, anyone below the emperor can be killed!”
This sentence had been echoing in his mind for more than twenty days, but continued to be suppressed by him.
“Eldest Senior Brother, what reason should we find to leave later?” Xu Qing softly transmitted his voice to the captain beside him.
“Simple. I’ve thought about it. It’s been two years since we came here. Using some military contributions can reduce the requirement for newly appointed Sword Holders to stay in the capital for three years. When the time comes, we can choose to be deployed elsewhere, and then I’ll handle things in a way that we can return to Yinghuang Province.”
The captain spoke proudly.
“Has it been two years?” Xu Qing felt that time passed a little quickly.
“That’s right. It’s been two years.”
The captain also felt a little emotional.
“Then I’ll be 20 this year.”
“That’s right, Little Qing. You haven’t completely grown up yet.” The captain laughed.
“I’m already 20 years old.” Xu Qing also smiled.
At that moment, amidst the cheers from all directions, the Seventh Prince, who was on the platform, raised his hand slightly. In an instant, the hundreds of thousands of people on the square fell silent. Gradually, the city also fell silent.
“Sons and daughters of my Fenghai County, you’ve suffered in the past half a year.”
The Seventh Prince spoke softly.
“I saw the blood you shed. The Human Emperor saw your sacrifice. The human race saw your sacrifice.”
“The war is over.”
“Our human race has achieved a great victory!”
“The Black Heaven Race has bullied our human race for tens of thousands of years. They paid the price for it. On the Imperial City Battlefield, hundreds of millions of members of the Black Heaven Race died, and the Suns of Dawn that erupted in their two regions killed ten times this number!”
“Our human race’s regional treasure is earth-shattering, and its most terrifying aspect is that it is not a short-lived effect. It will continue to burn within the Black Heaven Race’s territory for 60 years!”
“In this 60-year period, a hundred times more Black Heaven Race members will die, and all their newborns will undergo some changes in their forms. Though they also possess a regional war artifact, they only have one and lack the determination to go all out. Therefore, they can only endure the situation, and even their revered Crimson Goddess is in a state of deep slumber!”
“As for our human race, we released three regional war artifacts in this battle and there is even more of it.”
“Our human race has made a new history. The whole world knows of the Human Emperor Mystic War!”
The Seventh Prince’s voice was passionate and resounded through the sky.
“Under our joint efforts, we defended Fenghai County!”
“Not only that, but I got back the three provinces that were lost!”
“Not only did I get back the three provinces, but I also took back half of the Holy Wave Large Region!”
“In this half a region, there are nine counties and a hundred provinces.”
Cheers of excitement rose in all directions again.
The Seventh Prince stared at the ground with determination in his eyes and his voice became a little deeper.
“However, I know that some people might think that my actions are a little cruel and that my actions are to turn Fenghai County into my territory.”
“I’ve already reported this matter to the Human Emperor and obtained his approval. Hence, today, I’ll choose a person you’re familiar with to become the county governor of Fenghai County.”
“From now on, I’ll leave Fenghai County and might never return. I’ll head to Holy Wave and guard the border for the human race!”
After the prince finished speaking, before anyone could react, he faced the statue of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether. After bowing, he turned around and lifted his head to look at the illusory figures of the past county governors in the sky. He cupped his fists and bowed again.
