Like that, all twelve Heavenly Kings were settled.
The kings probably hadn’t expected that they were merely resolving the loose ends left from 300 years ago. How was it that in less than two hours, all twelve of them were annihilated?
Facing the women in the secret realm, Jiang Li sighed: “What a mess.”
“Give them some money and let these women either marry or lead a solitary life till the end.” Yu Yin had some experience with this. After killing the Old Emperor of Heaven Origin, she was once troubled by the 3000 concubines he left behind.
Killing them wasn’t right, but neither was letting them go. So, Yu Yin gave them some Spirit Stones and let them figure things out for themselves.
The women left behind by the twelve Heavenly Kings posed the same problem.
Their innocence had been destroyed, and from today onwards, the reputation of the twelve Heavenly Kings would be tarnished.
If these women wanted to live, they could only hide their pasts.
“By ‘seek a good match and marry,’ she means to find an honest man to marry.” The Ruyi Gourd felt it understood Yu Yin’s meaning, so it voiced its translation.
Yu Yin gave the dumb gourd a hard knock.
“No one would consider you as mute if you didn’t speak.”
“Oh.”
“Hand these people over to Bu Jing.” Bai Hongtu suggested, letting Bu Jing handle the arrangement.
“Alright.” Jiang Li agreed.
These women did not know about the change in the outside world, nor the true nature of the Heavenly Kings. They still saw the Kings as their saviors, so when the six Heavenly Kings inside the secret realm died, they were still on guard against Jiang Li and the others, some even harboring hatred.
This was due to limited perspective. Jiang Li couldn’t ask for more.
In fact, it was not only these women. Most people in the Ring Universe had just begun to doubt the Heavenly Kings, believing them to also be saviors.
Otherwise, the Heavenly Kings would not have had such an abundance of faith power.
With the death of the Heavenly Kings, people would probably see Jiang Li as the invader.
Although Jiang Li emanated a very gentle aura.
In addition, how to deal with the court of Qi Country, how to maximize the propagation of the ancient martial arts secrets, etc., must also be resolved. The death of the twelve Heavenly Kings marked the end of an old era, and the dawning of a new age, everything was chaotic.
“But what does this have to do with us? These are all things that Bu Jing needs to worry about.” Jiang Li stated bluntly.
Jiang Li himself had no good solutions for such matters. The reason he became the Human Emperor was that he had the welfare of the nine provinces in mind and was remarkably powerful, not because he was adept at ruling.
Just as Jiang Li did not master the Tao of Time, he similarly did not master the governing of a nation.
The trio brought the women out of the secret realm and returned to Buwu City.
Now, only a skeleton of the Night Heavenly King remained, void of any flesh, while underneath the skeleton were small mounds of thin, wing-like pieces of flesh.
Lingchi.
Bu Jing stood silently aside with a knife in his hand, expressionless.
The physical body of the Night Heavenly King at the Divinity Transformation Stage was very resilient. Those pieces of flesh were still slowly squirming and merging.
However, the Night Heavenly King was not resilient enough to come back to life at this point. The squirming and merging of the flesh pieces were futile efforts. They soon lost their life force.
The Night Heavenly King was thoroughly dead.
At last, there was a change in Bu Jing’s expression. His facial muscles relaxed.
He slightly raised the corners of his mouth, as if laughing. However, his nose twitched, and tears flowed uncontrollablv from his eves.
Bu Dong was the same.
The two brothers then knelt on the ground. They laughed and cried, disregarding their image, and finally, they bowed three times towards the east to appease the spirits of their parents in heaven.
Only after the two brothers had vented did Jiang Li land in the Bu Residence.
After Jiang Li recounted what happened with the women, Bu Jing quietly nodded and said he would handle it.
Only then did Jiang Li realize that Bu Jing was the oldest person in the Ring Universe, separated from the current generation by more than ten generations.
Just like the Eternal Sage.
If the Eternal Sage did not mention the Red Dust Fairy, he also had a very stable demeanor that reassured people.
“We don’t excel in the martial arts and can’t guide you. You will have to navigate your future journey yourself. Also, we’re not from this world. We won’t stay here. Where the Ring Universe will go, it’s all up to you,” Jiang Li said before leaving.
Bu Jing and Bu Dong expressed their thanks to Jiang Li and the others.
The favor that Jiang Li and the others had bestowed on the two brothers was greater than heaven, and could be described as a grace of regeneration. No amount of gratitude or praise would be excessive.
“Perfect your martial arts system as soon as possible. We can meet again then.”
“Yes.”
The first thing Bu Jing declared upon his return to the Bu Family was to change the family name from “Bu” to “But‘, regaining its original name.
“The King of Qi…” Looking hundreds of miles away in the direction of the capital of Qi Country, Bu Jing showed a hint of a chilling smile.
Squaring off with the true history of the populace, spreading the secrets of old martial arts, the Heavenly Kings were the biggest obstacles, and the court of Qi Country was the second largest obstacle.
The history of Qi Country should come to an end.
Being the only external king at present, there was no one in the Ring Universe who could compete with Bu Jing. Even if someone broke through to the external stage later, they would still not be his match.
He alone could transform this nation, which would be more powerful than thousands of troops and horses.
Even if the court assembles an army and the King of Qi lets the imperial experts protect him, they couldn’t stop the inevitable conclusion of the King of Qi being captured and Qi Country being destroyed.
Unlike warfare between ordinary peoples, leading to numerous deaths and devastation, the involvement of external martial artists in wars could truly reduce casualties to a minimum. Bu Jing could directly bypass the army and many imperial guards to capture the King of Qi.
Afterwards, Bu Jing announced to the world:
“The first four realms of martial arts can be considered as the internal stage, the fifth realm as the external stage, which is both a continuation of the original martial arts and a new beginning.”
“Internal stage, external stage. Therefore, the name of our kingdom shall be the ‘Scenery’.”
“The new kingdom shall be called the Scenery Kingdom!”
“Bu Dong will be the Scenery King!”
The Clan Leader of the Bu Family, or rather, the Clan Leader of the Bu family, was stunned for a long time after hearing this news.
Only a month had passed, how was it that the Bu family, which used to be a small family that couldn’t see the light of day, had become a royal family? “So I have become the clan leader of a royal family?”
The Clan Leader of the Bu family thought about it, and it was said that important figures liked to write memoirs in their old age. As a royal clan leader, he was somewhat of an important figure, so how should he write it when the time comes?
On a certain year, month, and day, the family fund was short, and the other three major families in Buwu City squeezed out the Bu family.
One month later, the Bu family became the royal family, ruling over the world.
“Hmm, seems like it’s a bit brief.” The Clan Leader of the Bu family scratched his head.
Jiang Li first used the system to return to Kyushu, and then had the Brahma Tower establish a temporary channel to bring Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin back.
Jiang Li took out the fragments of the Ascension Sky Stairs he had just obtained, and put them together with the fragments stripped from Luo Yin’s body. The two pieces of different shapes, completely not fitting together initially, merged directly.
They became a larger piece of Ascension Sky Stairs fragment.
This was unexpected to Jiang Li. He thought he would have to find a way to fuse the fragments after gathering them all. He didn’t expect the fragments could fuse on their own, without needing his intervention.
“So, there are two sources for the Ascension Sky Stairs fragments. One is directly given by the system, and the other is stripped from specific individuals.” Jiang Li summarized.
“Where did this Ascension Sky Stairs fragment come from?” Bai Hongtu was surprised. How was it that you could get Ascension Sky Stairs fragments while we all do the same thing? “Given by doing tasks.” “What task?”
“A counterattack task.”
Bai Hongtu laughed twice.. A counterattack mission, who would believe it? You, a revered Dacheng Period cultivator, counterattack who?
