635 Glorifying Ancestors for a Century
He then personally sought out Gui San to learn more, since Gui San was the master's trusted confidant and his information was more reliable!
A slight thought crossed my mind. I knew this was the best opportunity for me to catch up. If I missed it, I feared I would find it difficult to integrate into the group in the future!
'I wonder if Your Excellency will agree!' Thinking of this, Yang Dexing couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
The same applies to Mi Zhanguo, Lu Zhanyuan, Jing Zhong, and Feng Xingbu after they broke through the limits of their cultivation!
The entire family was immersed in an atmosphere of ecstatic joy. These four individuals all had the strong support of the family, and their breakthroughs were as awe-inspiring and spectacular as a volcanic eruption in the deep sea for the family.
Every member of the family felt proud and honored, as if they could see the family's future glory and honor.
They beat drums and gongs, sang and danced, trying to express their excitement and joy in every way possible. But even this kind of celebration seemed insufficient to describe their feelings at that moment.
But it was stopped. It was just a three-day feast, a temporary celebration for the villagers, neighbors and clansmen. Other celebrations were postponed!
With the year-end approaching, the elders in the family discussed holding a larger ancestral worship ceremony this year to celebrate the birth of a Martial King in the family, which would ensure a worry-free life for a hundred years!
A breakthrough not only signifies an increase in the family's strength, but also represents the family's hope and potential for the future.
When planning for the end of the year, an unprecedentedly grand ceremony to worship ancestors is held to express gratitude for their protection and blessings for the prosperity of the family.
Mi Zhanguo, Lu Zhanyuan, Jing Zhong, Feng Buxing, and Yang Dexing were still unable to calm down for a long time!
Although they were all quite old and had experienced many ups and downs, their emotions were as turbulent and restless as a ship in a stormy sea, unable to find peace in the face of the overwhelming joy of breaking through to the Martial King realm.
Their emotions were as fiery as a volcanic eruption; as they clenched their fists, they felt an overwhelming excitement, as if the entire world was under their control.
Moreover, the elders, peers, wives and children in the family all wore smiles brighter than the spring sunshine, and there were constant congratulations from relatives and in-laws around them.
Although they were past the age of excitement, their inner enthusiasm and passion burned like a raging fire that would never be extinguished.
At that moment, I felt like a giant dragon soaring through the sky, flying thousands of miles!
Jing Zhong, too, could hardly contain his joy at this moment!
Although there were some reservations about Lord He's use of force to govern Wanzhou in Dalong Prefecture, it was also known that the Holy Emperor ruled the world together with all the prefectures, and Lord He's actions were not too inappropriate!
I will guard Wanzhou on the orders of my lord, and I will certainly not refuse. However, not refusing and agreeing completely are two different things!
Previously, I had witnessed Lord He's unparalleled martial prowess, a world apart from mine, and I could only look up to him from behind. However, I still had doubts and reservations in my heart, which was an unavoidable fact.
However, under Lord He's governance, the personnel selected and employed all demonstrated good character, which undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for the stability and development of Wanzhou.
Moreover, most of the selected talents came from Wanzhou, which not only reflected Lord He's emphasis on local talents, but also quickly dispelled many opinions within Wanzhou.
In addition to stipulating taxes, Lord He strictly adhered to his promises and did not increase any additional fire consumption or other forms of taxation, which not only reduced the burden on the people but also created a favorable environment for the prosperity of Wanzhou.
In less than half a year, Wanzhou has undergone earth-shattering changes. Today's Wanzhou is like a completely different world compared to before.
Under the governance and leadership of Prefect Xie, the social order in Wanzhou was significantly improved, the security situation was markedly better, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and their living standards were significantly enhanced.
Emerging industries are booming, with workshops of all sizes producing various leather garments, utensils, and water conservancy and reclamation tools. The surrounding canals and waterways are teeming with goods from all over the country and from the local area.
The people of Wanzhou finally began to regain their rosy complexions and spoke with renewed vigor. Consumption and tax revenue were rising rapidly, and their various military expenses increased by 10%.
Suddenly, it felt like I was still in a dream. In the past, it was difficult to get all the expenses, and they would always cut off 10% or 20%. But now it's like a completely different world!
Before his breakthrough, Jing Zhong was indeed filled with guilt and embarrassment. He knew that his previous contributions were limited and felt embarrassed to accept Lord He's generous gift.
However, the master did not care about what he had. As for himself, although he had the support of his family, rare and precious materials and breakthrough items were hard to come by, no matter where they were, even in a major sect. He did not want to refuse them!
After the breakthrough, an unprecedented surge of excitement and joy welled up within me. I suddenly realized how profound and unfathomable Master He was, and deeply understood that following Master He was the path I should truly take.
Especially for himself, walking in the air, flying hundreds of feet high, the wind was too strong at that height, making him feel somewhat uncomfortable!
Even so, it was like a phoenix rising from the ashes, completely renewed.
After burning incense and purifying themselves, and changing into new clothes, they came with utmost sincerity and gratitude to thank Lord He.
My gratitude is like a flowing river, endless and inexhaustible!
Jing Zhong naturally knew the intelligence of his surroundings. He was only at the sixth level before. Compared to the Martial King, it seemed that the Martial King had too many means to kill him in the past, and there was no way to defend against it!
Now that I have broken through to the next level, I should do my best in matters concerning adults!
The kindness of King Wu is as heavy as Mount Tai and as deep as the ocean; I will repay it with all my might!
Collecting their thoughts, the five waited quietly, seemingly in no hurry at all!
The person approaching slowly was dressed in black brocade robes, exuding a regal air despite their simplicity, like a dazzling star in the night sky, understated yet radiant.
His physique was imposing, like an ancient tree reaching for the sky, standing tall on the earth, inspiring awe in all who beheld him. His aura was as deep and profound as a secluded valley, his boundless power and cultivation difficult to fathom, yet utterly unfathomable.
His aura was completely contained and unified, forming a harmonious whole!
It is as calm as flowing water, yet unfathomable, like the ethereal clouds, sometimes clearly visible, sometimes hidden away, making it impossible to grasp its true nature.
"Greetings, Your Excellency!" "Greetings, Chief Administrator!"
The same greeting, but different forms of address!
As if in rehearsal, the group bowed simultaneously, their movements perfectly synchronized, respectfully paying homage to the man in black brocade.
His eyes revealed deep respect and awe, as if the extraordinary person before him was now even more unfathomable, like a god!
He Chen nodded slightly, gazing at them with a calm yet profound look.
