"By order of the King!"

"Bo Yikao is hereby conferred the title of Marquis of the West!"

When this news came out of the Shang royal palace, it immediately shocked everyone.

Not long ago.

Bo Yikao's father, Ji Chang, established the Zhou dynasty in Xiqi and launched a campaign against the Shang dynasty.

Unfortunately, they suffered a crushing defeat when they attacked the Marquis of Bei's residence.

It's one thing if we fail to capture the Marquis of Bei's mansion.

Even Ji Chang himself lost his life.

Even now.

The Western Zhou Dynasty failed to elect a new king, and Shen Gongbao, the national advisor, continued to preside over the affairs of the Western Zhou.

Bo Yikao was the son of Ji Chang.

After the rebellion in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Everyone thought that Boyi Kao was doomed to die.

No one expected this...

The Shang king not only did not execute Boyi Kao, but instead appointed him as the new Marquis of the West...

What exactly is going on here?

That's outrageous!

The people of Chaoge City, always eager for celebration, flocked out of their homes to witness this investiture ceremony...

......

Unlike Ji Chang.

Bo Yikao had absolutely no intention of rebelling and was utterly loyal to the Shang Dynasty.

If it were an ordinary feudal lord's household...

With Bo Yikao's talent, he would surely be able to strengthen the power of the feudal lords and become a pillar of the Shang Dynasty.

He was just born at the wrong time.

Bo Yikao, however, was born in Xiqi.

When they learned that Xiqi had established the Zhou dynasty and attacked the Shang dynasty.

Bo Yikao was filled with anger and resentment, and he was mentally prepared to be executed by the Shang king.

Even knowing that the Western Zhou had been defeated and that Ji Chang had died.

Bo Yikao still didn't believe he could leave Chaoge alive.

But what Boyi Kao never expected was...

The Shang king not only did not kill him, but also announced to the world that he had been enfeoffed as the Marquis of the West.

"King Shang".

Why did you do this?

Bo Yikao walked heavily up the cloud platform, his heart filled with confusion.

......

Amidst the spotlight.

Bo Yikao arrived at the Cloud Terrace and met Ling Yun.

"Your Majesty, I, your humble servant, pay my respects."

Bo Yikao knelt down on both knees, not daring to look at Ling Yun even once.

Upon seeing this.

Ling Yun smiled and said.

“Bo Yikao”.

"You must be wondering why I would bestow upon you the title of Marquis of Xibo, right?"

Bo Yikao suddenly looked up, his eyes full of inquiry.

Ling Yun stood up from his throne, walked to the edge of the cloud platform, and said loudly.

"The lineage of the Marquis of Xibo has been virtuous and capable for generations."

"The reason why our Great Shang Dynasty is where it is today is largely due to the contributions of the Marquis of Xibo."

"Although the former Marquis of Xibo, Ji Chang, was bewitched by a sorcerer and rebelled."

"But this cannot erase the outstanding contributions of the successive rulers of the West to the Shang Dynasty."

Speaking of which...

Ling Yun turned around and his gaze fell on Boyi Kao.

“Bo Yikao”.

"Are you willing to inherit the loyalty of the Marquis of Xibo and continue to serve the Shang Dynasty?"

Ling Yun's words were light.

But to Boyi Kao, it was a wake-up call.

At this moment.

Bo Yikao's doubts vanished, replaced by a deep sense of emotion and determination.

"Thump!"

Bo Yikao knelt down heavily before Ling Yun again, banging his head on the ground and roaring.

"Bo Yikao is willing to die for the Great Shang!"

A fierce wind blew by, lifting the long hair on Boyi Kao's forehead and revealing his unwavering, bright eyes.

Hahahaha...

Ling Yun looked up at the sky and laughed loudly.

"good!"

"Then starting today."

"You are the new Marquis of the West of the Shang Dynasty!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar erupted.

Golden bolts of lightning filled the entire void.

Under a sky full of thunder.

"Sing!"

The golden dragon, representing the destiny of the Shang Dynasty, manifested itself.

A golden aura of fortune flew out from the fingertip of the Golden Dragon of Fortune and landed on Bo Yikao's brow.

A stroke of good fortune.

Bo Yikao suddenly opened his eyes and roared.

“I am Bo Yi Kao, the Marquis of Xibo.”

"Where is the destiny of Xiqi? Why has it not returned to its rightful place?"

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Buzz!"

The void trembled.

The fortune that originally belonged to the Western Zhou Dynasty suddenly trembled...

Strands of azure energy separated from the golden Western Zhou energy and converged towards Boyi Kao...

......

"not good!"

Shen Gongbao was the Grand Preceptor of the Western Zhou Dynasty and was closely related to the fate of the Western Zhou.

He immediately sensed the abnormality in the fortunes of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

However.

The fortune of the Western Zhou Dynasty was largely constructed from the fortune of the original Marquis of Xibo.

Now, a new Marquis of Xibo has emerged.

The fortune that originally belonged to the Marquis of Xibo naturally converged towards Boyi Kao.

No matter how powerful Shen Gongbao's supernatural abilities were, he couldn't stop it all; he could only watch helplessly as it unfolded...

If things continue like this...

The fortunes of the Western Zhou Dynasty will likely dissipate by more than half.

When the Western Zhou dynasty's fortunes collapsed.

How could the Western Zhou Dynasty continue to exist?

"It's over!"

Feeling the ever-flowing fortune.

Shen Gongbao's eyes flickered, and the idea of ​​running away resurfaced in his mind...

But at that very moment...

"Buzz!"

The [Investiture of the Gods], which was originally hidden in the void, suddenly appeared and immediately severed the flow of fortune from Xiqi to Chaoge.

The decline of the Western Zhou dynasty's fortunes came to an abrupt end.

"call!"

Shen Gongbao let out a long sigh of relief, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Although it had the help of the "Investiture of the Gods".

The Western Zhou dynasty's fortune was preserved, but nearly 30% of it had already been lost...
