51: Unification of Southern Province

Late at night!

The central region of the Chu Dynasty!

This was a colossal city spanning ten thousand li, with towering walls reaching into the clouds, constructed from pristine white jade, exuding a faint spiritual glow.

Within the city were mountains and valleys, and spiritual lakes abounded. Amidst them were magnificent palaces, resplendent with Origin Qi, as well as elegant and ancient pavilions imbued with profound antique charm.

Inside the city, people flowed like a river. Martial Artists either piloted flying boats, rode Yao Beasts, or walked on foot, presenting a scene of prosperity.

This was the Royal Capital, one of the five great cities of Nanzhou!

At this moment, above a magnificent hall within the Royal Palace!

A middle-aged man with a dignified Face and an overbearing aura sat on the Dragon Throne!

The entire hall was permeated with a domineering King's aura!

This person was none other than the ruler of the Chu Dynasty, King Chu Nanfeng!

Suddenly, Chu Nanfeng's expression changed!

The space in front of him trembled, and then six figures appeared in the spacious hall!

"Wang Xuanming, Wang Changfeng?" Chu Nanfeng's Face changed as he recognized two of them!

"You are King Chu?"

An indifferent voice came, and the speaker was Hei Yu!

Chu Nanfeng frowned and glanced at him, unable to discern his cultivation. However, considering the way the six people had appeared and that everyone seemed to defer to this person, he guessed that this person was also a King Realm expert!

"Indeed, it is this King! May I know who Fellow Daoist is?" Chu Nanfeng asked with a frown!

"My name is Hei Yu! I have come today to ask your royal family to submit to the Wang Family!" Hei Yu said indifferently!

Wang Xuanming and the other man were overjoyed upon hearing this!

"Wang Xuanming, are you trying to rebel?"

Hearing these words, Chu Nanfeng angrily glared at Wang Xuanming!

His cultivation, unique to the Middle Stage of the Fengwang Realm, erupted, instantly causing the surrounding Void Realm to tremble!

Wang Xuanming knew it was his time to shine, so instead of fear, he smiled: "Chu Nanfeng! I am not trying to rebel; it is simply the will of Heaven! Given that your Chu Wushuang is my Wang Family's son-in-law, I will not touch the Chu Dynasty, but from today onwards, the Chu Dynasty shall submit to the Wang Family!"

Chu Nanfeng frowned. "The Ming Domain has long-standing rules that forces from Zhongzhou are not allowed to interfere with the four states. Is Jade Maiden Palace going to attack my Chu Dynasty? Tianhe Sect and Yuhua Sect will never stand idly by!"

Wang Xuanming shook his head. "Jade Maiden Palace naturally won't break the rules for my great-granddaughter!"

"Hahaha! What audacity! Wang Xuanming, for Wang Yan's Face, I will pardon your Wang Family's disrespect! Get lost!"

Hearing that Jade Maiden Palace would not intervene, Chu Nanfeng breathed a sigh of relief. If he hadn't been wary of Wang Yan, he would have already made a move!

"You..."

"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to persuade them further. They won't be afraid until they're given a good beating!"

Just then, Hei Yu coldly glanced at Chu Nanfeng!

Wang Xuanming opened his mouth, then said nothing more!

Chu Nanfeng frowned at this, just about to speak, when he heard Hei Yu say!

"Hei Feng! Beat him up!"

"Yes, King!" A burly man stepped forward!

"Hahaha! A bunch of ants, not knowing the immensity of Heaven and Earth!"

As soon as the words fell, Chu Nanfeng's sneer rang out!

Then a hint of killing intent appeared on Chu Nanfeng's Face!

"Since you won't leave, then stay!"

Chu Nanfeng rose, and with a raise of his hand, the surrounding Origin Qi transformed into a giant palm, striking towards the crowd!

Perhaps killing Wang Xuanming and the others would cause trouble, but he also had a way to resolve this crisis!

"Boom!"

However, before the giant palm could fall, it was shattered by Hei Feng's wave of a hand!

"How is this possible?"

Chu Nanfeng's expression changed!

He was a powerful expert in the Middle Stage of the Fengwang Realm; among the leaders of Nanzhou's five great forces, his strength was second only to the Sect Master of Tianxuan Sect!

"I thought he was stronger? Is that all?"

At this moment, Hei Feng had already arrived nearby. He grinned, and an incredibly powerful aura burst forth from him!

"Pfft!"

"Feng... Fengwang Perfection!"

The ruler of the Chu Dynasty, a Middle Stage Fengwang Realm existence, changed his expression upon sensing Hei Feng's cultivation!

Without any hesitation, he took out a jade talisman and quickly crushed it!

But the expected reinforcements did not arrive!

"Are you looking for them?"

Hei Yu chuckled, waved his large hand, and the space ripped open. Two figures emerged from it, then three figures were thrown towards Chu Nanfeng!

"Father!"

"Old Ancestor Xingnan!"

"Old Ancestor Xingbei!"

Seeing the three, Chu Nanfeng's pupils constricted. He quickly stepped forward to check on them and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw they were merely unconscious!

Looking up at Wang Xuanming and the others again, apart from Wang Xuanming and Wang Changfeng, the other five were all Kings, and Hei Yu's aura was unfathomable. The fact that he could command a Fengwang Perfection expert meant his strength was unimaginable!

"If the Chu Dynasty wasn't still useful, and your Chu Family has an in-law relationship with my Wang Family, your Chu Family's tens of thousands of years of foundation would have long been annihilated!" Wang Xuanming spoke at the opportune moment!

Chu Nanfeng no longer had his previous confidence, but he was unwilling to submit to the Wang Family!

"Fellow Daoist, which Sect are you from? There are definitely no such forces in the four states of East, West, South, and North! And forces from Zhongzhou are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the four states. Are you not afraid that your actions will bring disaster upon the force behind you?"

"The world is vast, how much do you truly understand? How can you be so sure that we are from Zhongzhou?" Hei Yu asked with a smile!

"Boom!"

An incomparably powerful pressure instantly filled the entire hall, causing ripples in space itself!

Under this terrifying aura, Chu Nanfeng immediately looked terrified, his body trembling uncontrollably!

"Heavenly King Realm!"

Chu Nanfeng looked at Hei Yu with a terrified expression!

Only a Heavenly King Realm expert could cause ripples in space with just the pressure of their Origin Qi!

However, Hei Yu was only at the Perfection of the Mystic King Realm, but as a Yao Beast with a high-grade Royal Bloodline, his combat power had already surpassed that of an ordinary Heavenly King Realm expert!

"Do you still think I am from Zhongzhou now?" Hei Yu asked with a smile!

Chu Nanfeng fell silent!

The only forces in Zhongzhou with Heavenly King Realm experts were the Three Sects, plus the Three Associations, which did not participate in any power struggles, and one Heavenly King Loose Cultivator!

Beyond that, there were no other Heavenly Kings!

"Submit, or die!"

Hei Yu didn't give him a chance to consider, but said coldly!

Chu Nanfeng's heart trembled, but thinking of the Chu Family's tens of thousands of years of foundation, he gritted his teeth and asked: "If my Chu Family submits, how will you deal with my Chu Family?"

Hei Yu heard this, said nothing, and turned to look at Wang Xuanming and the other man!

"The Chu Dynasty will still belong to your Chu Family. As long as my Wang Family exists, no one will dare to touch the Chu Dynasty's foundation! However, I need you to leave a strand of your Natal Divine Soul!" Wang Xuanming said!

Chu Nanfeng's expression was uncertain, but circumstances were against him, and he eventually obediently handed over his Natal Divine Soul, which meant his life and death were in Hei Yu's hands!

Apart from him, the other three were also awakened and obediently handed over their Natal Divine Souls. At this point, the biggest obstacle to the Chu Dynasty had been eliminated. The remaining task was to eliminate the other eight Golden Forces, excluding the Great Chu Academy!

As long as these eight forces were subdued, the Chu Dynasty would completely submit to the Wang Family!

And the Nine Sects were also easy to deal with. After dealing with the royal family, Hei Yu's eight Fengwang subordinates all went out and ascended the mountain gates of the eight great forces!

Three days later, a piece of news spread throughout the Chu Dynasty: the Blood Demon Palace, ranked second among the nine great Golden Forces, was destroyed. The person who took action was a powerful expert in the Fengwang Realm!

On that day, led by the Chu Dynasty, the eight great Golden Forces collectively announced their allegiance to the Wang Family of Fengyan County!

For a time, the Wang Family's prestige was immeasurable, and the entire region was adorned with lanterns and festive decorations!

And just as everyone's attention was drawn to the Wang Family, Hei Yu, led by Chu Wushuang, went to the Tianxuan Sect of the Wu Dynasty!

Tianxuan Sect, this was the overlord of the Wu Dynasty, established in Nanzhou for fifty thousand years. Even the establishment of the Wu Dynasty had the shadow of Tianxuan Sect behind it!

Tianxuan Sect was also stronger than the Chu Dynasty, with an Old Ancestor at the Early Stage of the Mystic King Realm within its gates!

However, under Hei Yu's formidable strength, that Mystic King Realm Old Ancestor couldn't even withstand a single move, and thus Tianxuan Sect eventually submitted to the Wang Family!

And about a month after Tianxuan Sect submitted, Qi and Wei successively submitted to the Wang Family. The Zhao Family, relying on a Middle Stage Mystic King Realm Old Ancestor, was unwilling to submit and was destroyed by Hei Yu. Its territory was then divided among the four forces: Chu, Qi, Wei, and Tianxuan Sect!

Thus, the entire Nanzhou region was unified by the Wang Family!

As soon as the news broke, the Ming Domain was shaken, and all major forces turned their attention to Jade Maiden Palace!

And Xu Qing, as the mastermind behind the scenes, was receiving rewards from the System!
