Chapter 360
Chapter 360
This situation started with the small kingdoms.
The military strength of small kingdoms was weak, and although they had two or three Innates and some acquired experts, they were still no match for the common people.
There were also strong individuals among the common people, many of whom helped out of a sense of justice.
Thus, many small kingdoms were overthrown.
The moment a country was overthrown, they immediately announced their surrender to Great Xia.
Following that, some great kingdoms also couldnt hold on.
The royal families of great kingdoms either fled or directly announced their surrender to Great Xia, otherwise, there was no way to survive.
Some dynasties with severe national power deficits also began to falter.
Nowadays, only an Empire with a Grandmaster can hold its ground and remain unthreatened.
Everyone around the world was dumbfounded.
F*ck! A single grain disaster has led so many countries to surrender!
Now, 11 small kingdoms and three great kingdoms have surrendered to Great Xia! Its too outrageous; even the theatre wouldnt dare to depict such a scenario!
Is Great Xia conquering others without a fight?
Of course, if you had enough food, wouldnt you see others surrendering to you?
Great Xia really picked up a good deal!
This might not be a good thing! The population of these countries combined is over a hundred million. If they cant be managed, its a huge burden! Although Great Xia is powerful, it might not be able to handle this!
I feel like there shouldnt be a problem. They have enough food to feed 800 million people!
Among the most anxious were the four great Empires.
Great Xia has now established itself as the Celestial Empire, the foremost Empire in the world, commanding respect far and wide.
If they continue to develop, the position of the others would be completely undermined.
Therefore, they must act to stop this.
Consequently, they sent envoys to various countries to persuade the common folk.
The imperial envoys said, Fellow people, acting on impulse wont solve any problems! Do you really think Great Xia will accept you just because you unilaterally declare your allegiance? I doubt it!
The common people responded, Can you give us food?
The imperial envoys replied, We should sit down calmly and discuss a solution! Resorting to violence is always the last resort!
The common people again asked, Can you give us food?
The imperial envoys continued, Look, your Emperor is working hard. You should give him a chance!
The common people persisted, Can you give us food?
Finally, the imperial envoys lost their temper: Can we talk about something other than food?
The common people also became angry: If not food, then what? You claim to have our best interests at heart, but you dont address our need for food! If you cant solve our hunger, then get lost. Just seeing you is making me angry!
And so, the imperial envoys retreated in a most undignified manner.
Seeing that a soft approach was ineffective, the four great Empires resorted to a harder one.
They secretly dispatched experts to assist the local royalty in suppressing the uprisings.
With their efforts, they indeed achieved some good results.
Inside the Great Xia imperial palace.
The elders of the Beggar Sect gathered, unanimously saying, Your Majesty, for what purpose have you summoned us?
Lin Beifan said with a heavy heart, I have heard that many common people outside our realm yearn for Great Xia and wish to join us! However, there are villains obstructing and harming the common people, which grieves me deeply! Therefore, I have summoned you in hopes that you will use the power of the Beggar Sect to eradicate these villains and give the people their freedom!
Yes, Your Majesty! The elders of the Beggar Sect were excited.
The Emperor had given them a mission!
A mission meant rewards!
Thinking of the lavish rewards from the Emperor, they all became restless.
Rest assured, Your Majesty, we will surely complete the mission successfully!
Elder Qian promised confidently, and the other Beggar Sect elders nodded, sure of themselves.
Over the years, with Lin Beifans support, their strength had improved by leaps and bounds.
All the Beggar Sect elders had advanced to the Astral Qi level.
And a few of the Beggar Sect elders had broken through to the Imperial Qi realm.
With the divine elixir and the powerful weapons bestowed by Lin Beifan, along with the divine skills they practiced, they were unmatched by any of their peers.
I naturally trust the abilities of all the elders.
Lin Beifan said with a slight smile, waving his hand gently. Go, elders, I await your good news.
Yes, Your Majesty! The elders took their leave.
The Beggar Sect was mobilized, spreading out to various countries to continue fanning the flames and inciting internal strife.
Thus, the situation that had just calmed down was once again thrown into chaos.
The four great Empires were extremely frustrated.
.
Inside the Great Wu Empires imperial palace.
The Great Wu Emperor was furious: How has it become chaotic again? Is it because you are not enforcing the law effectively?
Several ministers knelt below, trembling as they spoke: Your Majesty, it is not that we are powerless, but mysterious masters have joined the rebels, assisting them in their rebellion! They are too strong for us to handle!
There are masters involved
The Great Wu Emperor calmed down: Could it be people from Great Xia?
Your Majesty, thats unlikely!
One of the senior ministers said with a bow: The masters from all over Great Xia have been under our surveillance! At this moment, they are all within Great Xia and have no opportunity to participate in this matter!
Moreover, the masters who joined at this time are relatively unknown, more like people from the rivers and lakes! Some of them seem to be experts from the Beggar Sect! And the Beggar Sect has no connection with Great Xia.
The Great Wu Emperor became angry once again: Those damn beggars, they truly want the world to be in chaos!
Your Majesty is absolutely right, they are a group of thugs who thrive on chaos! The more beggars there are, the stronger the Beggar Sect can grow! They are like a cancer to the world! Someone said, sharing the same enmity.
Regardless, their actions are hostile towards us!
The Great Wu Emperor spoke loudly: Send more people to suppress them! I refuse to believe that a mere Beggar Sect can turn the heavens upside down!
Yes, Your Majesty!
Thus, Great Wu sent out even more powerful individuals.
The other three top-tier Empires did the same.
And so, the struggle intensified.
Inside the Great Xia imperial palace, Lin Beifan received the latest information from outside and then turned to look at the Sword Elder beside him, suddenly asking: Sword Elder disciple, how well have you mastered the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?
The Sword Elder was somewhat puzzled but still replied: Master, although I have primarily focused on the sword over the years, I have also practiced the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and currently, I should be at about eighty or ninety percent proficiency.
Lin Beifan nodded in satisfaction: Good!
The Peerless Spear Immortal was puzzled: Senior brother, why have you also practiced the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms? Thats the unique skill of the Beggar Sect how..?
The Sword Elder looked at Lin Beifan and, after receiving a nod of approval, smiled and said: Junior brother, what you dont know is
He then explained the whole story to the Peerless Spear Immortal.
After hearing it, the Peerless Spear Immortals expression was as if he had seen a ghost.
He had not expected that the Beggar Sect, the number one gang in the world, had long been under the control of his master.
And all these years, his senior brother had been playing the role of the leader of the Beggar Sect, deceiving everyone.
He was filled with admiration. His master and senior brother were so cunning that they had fooled the entire world!
