All the civil and military officials present were thrilled to see Ye Qiu disappear from the spot.
The next second, they witnessed a scene they would never forget.
Those extraordinary experts who seemed invincible to them were easily crushed by Ye Qiu, who treated them like ants.
In less than ten seconds, more than a dozen people were bleeding and died on the spot.
"What Heavenly Dragon Path dares to shake the foundation of the Great Xia?"
Ye Qiu clapped his hands, his expression calm.
"good."
"Good riddance."
"The Peerless King is indeed a deity of our Great Xia Dynasty."
"What Peerless King? He should be called Emperor Xia now."
"Yes, yes, yes, he should be called Emperor Xia."
"Greetings to Emperor Xia."
After someone shouted, a unified sound rang out from the entire venue.
Ye Qiu was startled by the sight of this scene.
Xia Zu nodded with satisfaction and said, "I knew you were the most suitable candidate."
Looking back, you have amassed enough prestige by single-handedly suppressing the Kingdom of Mili and the Eastern Island Dynasty.
Now, in this era of fierce competition, you will surely shine even more brilliantly.
“Xia Zu, I hope I won’t let you down.”
Ye Qiu said in a deep voice.
In the present-day Great Xia Dynasty, chaos has broken out everywhere, with many powerful forces carving out their own territories and establishing their own kingdoms.
His rise to power at this time presents him with a complex situation.
But Ye Qiu would not back down. Someone had to take on this great responsibility. He could not allow those ancient traditions to fall apart.
After the meeting, news of Ye Qiu's appointment as the new Emperor of Xia spread throughout the world.
At this time, most people around the world and across the planet Earth did not take this news seriously.
Because everyone understands that the world today is different from the past.
In the past, Ye Qiu was one of the best among the few cultivators, so he was naturally powerful and rarely had an opponent.
But in the years to come, cultivators will be everywhere, and they will surely find many people more powerful than Ye Qiu.
Therefore, there is no need to fear Ye Qiu anymore.
Driven by this idea, the Kingdom of Mili was the first to make a boastful statement: "Ye Qiu's era is over. If the Great Xia forces him into this position, he will not be able to hold on for long. If any of the dynasties within the Great Xia need help, please inform the Kingdom of Mili. We will provide our full support."
Following Miliguo's speech, Dongdaochao also spoke, supporting the emergence of many dynasties within the Great Xia, so that everyone could flourish together.
Such remarks are utterly despicable.
They all knew very well that this was the perfect opportunity to bring down the world's most powerful dynasty, the Great Xia.
...
In the capital city, Ye Qiu held a meeting with a group of important civil and military officials.
This meeting was convened at the strong request of a group of civil and military officials, with the aim of discussing how to deal with the Heavenly Dragon Path.
"Does anyone have any suggestions?" Ye Qiu asked.
"Emperor Xia, I have a suggestion." An old man said in a deep voice, "The Heavenly Dragon Path is not an ordinary force. Sending a large army may not be effective and may even cause the deaths of many innocent citizens. Therefore, I suggest that we assassinate the leader of the Heavenly Dragon Path."
They say when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; this method is worth a try.
"That's not right." Someone immediately objected: "If we fail, the Heavenly Dragon Path will retaliate. They have been frantically recruiting 100,000 people in the last two days, all of whom are awakened individuals. Coupled with the Heavenly Dragon Path's own formidable strength, once they go on a rampage, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Then what should we do?"
"We can't just sue for peace, can we? We absolutely cannot sue for peace. If we can't even deal with the Heavenly Dragon Path, then those powerful forces that have carved out their own territories in the various states and counties of Great Xia will be even more difficult to deal with."
The crowd started discussing it, offering all sorts of opinions, and the debate raged on and on.
"Alright, everyone stop for now and listen to me." Ye Qiu raised his hand to stop the argument.
Everyone immediately fell silent and looked at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu calmly said, "Just focus on your work. You don't need to handle the Tianlong Dao matter; I will take care of it."
After speaking, Ye Qiu hesitated for a few seconds before looking at an elderly man with white hair: "You are Cao Zhen, Prime Minister Cao, right?"
"Your subject is present."
Cao Zhen stood up and bowed.
"Prime Minister Cao, I killed the previous head of the Imperial Academy. You must find a suitable replacement as soon as possible. We need to open a cultivation academy in the capital within a month. This is very important."
"Understood." Cao Zhen's spirits lifted. "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will find a suitable candidate as soon as possible."
"Okay, let's call it a day."
Ye Qiu got up and left, leaving behind a group of civil and military officials.
A group of people sighed and were extremely uneasy.
"Emperor Xia didn't say how he would deal with the Heavenly Dragon Path. Can he really handle it?"
"Alas, I wonder if we will have a peaceful end."
"Stop your babbling," Cao Zhen said sternly. "Since Emperor Xia said we don't need to handle this, he must have a foolproof plan. Focus on your work, don't be careless, and don't go astray. Now you may all leave."
...
On the other side, Ye Qiu quickly arrived at the Dragon Palace.
The people of the Dragon Palace were all incredibly excited upon seeing Ye Qiu, and their worship of him reached an almost fanatical level.
"Greetings to Emperor Xia."
"Greetings to Emperor Xia."
Everyone who saw Ye Qiu would kneel and bow in respect.
Even Long Ling and Xia Li couldn't help but kneel down when they saw Ye Qiu, but Ye Qiu stopped them.
"How are the people from the Dragon Palace doing in their cultivation lately?" Ye Qiu asked Long Ling and Xia Li.
“Very good.” Long Ling said, “After the spiritual energy was fully restored, everyone made rapid progress, and their cultivation improved day by day. They have basically all reached the Spirit Sea Realm.”
