Undying Life

Chapter 103: Chapter 103: The Great Qiong Dynasty

"Yes," Wei Taizhong nodded.

"Taizhong, are you still unwilling to acknowledge Yinglan?" Zhongshan sighed.

"Hehe, let's keep it a secret. I am a eunuch, and I don't want Yinglan to know that I am his eunuch uncle. Big sister is dead, second brother is dead, and second brother's son is also dead. Now it's just me and Yinglan. As long as Yinglan can live happily, I'm content," Wei Taizhong shook his head with a sigh.

Wei Taizhong, Kui'er's third younger brother.

Zhongshan looked at his nephew with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "The past events weren't entirely Su Lianxian's fault."

"Su Lianxian, hmph, I know it's not all Su Lianxian's fault, but if it weren't for him, would my second brother have died in a foreign land? My second brother's most direct enemy wiped out your entire clan, but I still want Su Lianxian dead. I want Su Lianxian's clan exterminated," Wei Taizhong's eyes grew cold.

"But you don't have to degrade yourself like this," Zhongshan shook his head with a sigh.

"I was originally a eunuch, what's wrong with entering the palace? Miss Bao'er deserves my respect, but if it weren't for Miss Bao'er, would you have spared Su Lianxian? I think you wouldn't have. When you go mad, even immortals can't stop you. But because of the oath you made for Miss Bao'er, I didn't blame you. At the same time, I also thank Miss Bao'er for giving me the opportunity to seek revenge personally. Over the decades, I successfully infiltrated the center of power in the Su family. But to completely destroy the Su family, obviously that's not possible. So I lured them here, tore up this oath for you, and could finally bring about the complete destruction of the Su family. This revenge is not just yours alone, but also mine. I've avenged it with my own hands," Wei Taizhong said excitedly, tears of sadness streaming down his cheeks.

"Sigh, the matter is already in the past, and the Su family has been destroyed. In the future, you should enjoy your life," Zhongshan sighed.

"No need, after so many years as the Grand Internal Manager, I've grown accustomed to it. Leaving this circle of power, I might not even be comfortable. Besides, I still hope you can avenge big sister. I will definitely assist you. Big sister's spirit in heaven will also be comforted," Wei Taizhong said solemnly.

Crack——

Zhongshan crushed the teacup in his hand.

"Rest assured, the debt to Kui'er has always been on my mind. The Crown Prince, I will definitely use his head to pay tribute to Kui'er's spirit in heaven. Moreover, regarding the Crown Prince, I have some clues now," Zhongshan said in a deep voice.

"Clues? Do you know who the Crown Prince is?" Wei Taizhong immediately became excited.

"I only have a vague idea. The Crown Prince is a true prince, a prince of a superpower. And I will definitely establish a superpower, conquer the kingdom of the Crown Prince, and kill the Crown Prince to avenge Kui'er," Zhongshan said solemnly.

"Good, hahaha, good, hahaha," Wei Taizhong's eyes flowed with tears of madness.

"Mm," Zhongshan nodded.

preparations for the ceremony were in place, exuding an unparalleled solemnity. Below stood Zhong Tian, along with civil and military officials gathered from the former capital of the Great Kun Nation, as well as countless soldiers. Each of them stood upright, awaiting the arrival of the protagonist of today's ceremony.

Inside the Yilan Hall of the Zhong Mansion in Xuan Cheng, a group of people stood before Zhongshan. Among them were Zhong Tian, Zhong Zheng, Yinglan, Wei Taizhong, and a man with a square face, emanating an aura of dignity. His face was slightly flushed, giving him an even more imposing appearance.

"Big brother, today is the last time I'll call you big brother. After today, I'll be your subject," the man said, his voice tinged with excitement.

"Linxiao, remember, you and I will always be brothers, appearing as lord and subject in name, but truly like brothers," Zhongshan said solemnly to this former war god of the Great Kun.

"Okay," Linxiao said excitedly, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Zhongshan.

"However, this time being able to establish the nation is all thanks to Linxiao's timely action," Zhongshan immediately said.

"For forty-two years, I, Linxiao, have been waiting for this day. When Su Lianxian threatened big brother back then, we were prepared to overthrow the Great Kun Nation. It's just that you, big brother, were unwilling. Now that Su Lianxian has breached the contract, of course, we can't be lenient. Otherwise, when will we have to wait? My life, big brother, you've saved it ten times. Even if I die of old age, I will make sure that my descendants for ten generations will follow you," Linxiao said solemnly.

Zhongshan gently patted Linxiao, nodding deeply, feeling very touched.

Then, Zhongshan looked at Yinglan again, furrowing his brows slightly. "Yinglan, what I mentioned before, after I become emperor, I will confer titles. Are you really not accepting the title of princess?"

"Yes, I only want to be a general. I don't want the title of princess," Yinglan said solemnly, with a glint in her eyes, as if she had some other plans of her own.

Wei Taizhong, on the side, just frowned but didn't say much. After all, it was Yinglan's own choice, and he could only support her.

"Well then, you will be a general. You can still enjoy the fortune of the nation, and even if my country is destroyed by then, it will only affect me and the princes, not the courtiers," Zhongshan said to Yinglan solemnly.

This way, it also gave Yinglan a way out, just in case.

"No, Master Grandfather, if anything happens to you, Yinglan will definitely fight to the death for you," Yinglan immediately said anxiously, her tone becoming somewhat disjointed.

Looking at Yinglan, Zhongshan smiled and said, "I know, I know."

With Wei Taizhong here, even if he died, Yinglan would be fine. Since that was the case, it couldn't be better.

"Here, I'll give you the Spiritual Bead. Will you all know how to use it?" Zhongshan looked at everyone.

"Yes," Linxiao, Wei Taizhong, and Zhongzheng all said excitedly.

"Good, in that case, let's go," Zhongshan said.

"Yes," everyone nodded in agreement.

Then, Zhongshan, dressed in magnificent attire, led the group behind him, walking on the red carpet from the Zhong Mansion all the way to the city gate. The bridge at the city gate had also been rebuilt. Stepping on the red carpet, they walked all the way to the southern platform.

"Roar, roar, roar!"

As if welcoming Zhongshan, the million-strong army roared in unison, shaking the heavens and earth.

Upon reaching the platform, everyone except Wei Taizhong stopped below the platform.

The platform was a hundred meters high, and Zhongshan stepped onto it step by step, with Wei Taizhong standing behind him.

When he reached the top, there was a huge circular platform with a square in the center, symbolizing the combination of heaven and earth.

On the top of the platform, there was a special kneel-down cabinet and a square platform for placing objects. Zhongshan gently took out the already rolled-up "Divine Decree" and the "Heavenly Jade Seal" and placed them on the square platform.

Gently, Zhongshan knelt down very solemnly in front of the cabinet and began to kowtow to the sky.

"One kowtow to the heavens," Wei Taizhong roared on behalf of Zhongshan.

"Kowtow."

Zhongshan immediately began to kowtow to the sky.

"Another kowtow."

"Three kowtows."

"Get up."

After three kowtows, Zhongshan gently got up.

"Two kowtows to the ground," Zhongshan immediately knelt down again.

"Kowtow."

"Another kowtow."

"Three kowtows."

"Get up."

Zhongshan quickly got up. This was the procedure that must be followed.

"Three kowtows to the country."

"Kowtow."

"Another kowtow."

"Three kowtows."

"Get up."

After three kowtows and nine prostrations, Zhongshan gently got up.

Meanwhile, Wei Taizhong bowed his body and slowly retreated from the platform, walking down to his position below and standing there slowly.

Zhongshan looked down at the million-strong army below, his eyes flashing with a sense of superiority.

Gently, Zhongshan unfolded the "Divine Decree" and then held the Heavenly Jade Seal in both hands, slowly facing the "Divine Decree."

"From today onwards, the nation of 'Da Jiǒng' is established, decreed by the heavens, granting eternal prosperity～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～"

Zhongshan slowly began to speak, and as he uttered the national name 'Da Jiǒng', a large 'Da Jiǒng' character suddenly emerged prominently on the front of the "Divine Decree", faintly displaying that this "Divine Decree" was henceforth exclusive to the name 'Da Jiǒng'.

At the same time, on the far left, a large '王' character emerged, and below it were the characters 'Zhong Shan'.

The Heavenly Jade Seal, held firmly over his name, was forcefully stamped down.

The moment the Heavenly Jade Seal touched the "Divine Decree".

"Ao～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～"

A deafening dragon chant soared into the sky, piercing through heaven and earth, breaking through clouds and fog, resounding throughout the surroundings of the high platform.

Simultaneously, on the high platform, it seemed like a colossal source of wind, endless gales blowing out from the platform in all directions. Even above the tower, a wind dragon entirely formed by the wind, to the astonishment of everyone present, soared into the sky like a tornado, rushing up into the high altitude.

As the wind dragon ascended, it instantly broke through the sun-blocking white clouds in the sky, dispersing them in an instant. Revealed was the vast sun in the sky, casting Zhongshan's figure to resemble a golden war god.

"Long live our Emperor! Long live our Emperor!"

The chants echoed ceaselessly, wave after wave, surpassing one another. The ruler of Da Jiǒng, Zhongshan, truly seemed destined by providence, the true dragon emperor! At this moment, countless people displayed looks of admiration. Any lingering attachment to the Su family of the former Da Kun nation vanished instantly. The celestial signs showed that the mandate of heaven belonged here, to this ruler of Da Jiǒng, the true emperor.

Standing on the platform, Zhongshan looked down slightly excitedly. Actually, he hadn't expected the scene just now. He couldn't have imagined that the combination of the Divine Decree and the Heavenly Jade Seal would have such a profound effect. A wind dragon? Dragon chant? Those were symbols of a true dragon emperor. The Heavenly Jade Seal hadn't even absorbed the nation's qi yet, and the Divine Decree hadn't been used to enfeoff any piece of the sky, yet they could produce such effects. It showed the high level of these two items.

Enjoying the endless bows and worship below, Zhongshan gently put away the Heavenly Jade Seal, leaving only the Divine Decree out.
