110: Chapter 110 The Shocked Crowd: The Luo Sisters Arrive in Great Xia

After Xia Jin returned to the Great Xia Imperial Palace, he immediately had Commander Qin Hu summon Emperor Xia Yu to Jin Wang Palace.

Before long, Emperor Xia Yu rushed over from the Imperial Study, his face showing a hint of exhaustion.

These past few days, he had barely closed his eyes as he dealt with the disaster in the Central Domain and prepared for the evacuation of the populace.

But hearing that his elder brother, Xia Jin, had summoned him, he faintly felt in his heart that it must be good news.

"Elder brother, is there some good news?" Emperor Xia Yu asked loudly with a smile the moment he stepped into Jin Wang Palace.

"Enough, sit down and we shall talk!" Xia Jin glanced at the travel-worn Emperor Xia Yu, pointed to the seat opposite him, and signaled for him to sit. "The plan you and Princess Jiang Rou were responsible for—evacuating the populace to 'Canglan Islet'—can be put on hold."

"Ah!?"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Emperor Xia Yu, but even Leng Yuexi and Commander Qin Hu were stunned.

Emperor Xia Yu frowned and asked with some confusion, "Elder brother, why the sudden delay? You should be clear about what happened in the Central Domain. If the disaster descends upon the Eastern Domain, even though our Great Xia is at the easternmost edge of the Eastern Domain, it will likely be too late to evacuate then."

Commander Qin Hu, standing behind Emperor Xia Yu, also nodded in agreement.

Leng Yuexi gently took Xia Jin's hand and said softly, looking at him, "That's right, husband, why the sudden change of heart?"

"What? Do you not trust your husband?" Xia Jin looked at Leng Yuexi with a wry smile.

"Could it be..." Leng Yuexi looked at Xia Jin's confident gaze, her beautiful eyes widening suddenly as a thought flashed through her mind.

Xia Jin patted the back of Leng Yuexi's hand, swept his gaze over Emperor Xia Yu and the others, and said with a smile, "You may not know this, but today, the culprits who destroyed the Lieyang Dynasty and the Great Qian Dynasty have arrived in the Eastern Domain."

"What?!" Emperor Xia Yu stood up abruptly, and Commander Qin Hu's expression changed drastically. Only Leng Yuexi, who had vaguely guessed something, remained mostly composed.

"The Yuehua Dynasty was their first stop upon entering the Eastern Domain. However, I have already taken action and forced them to retreat. As long as I am here, I believe they will not easily step into the Eastern Domain again in the short term."

Emperor Xia Yu took a deep breath and slowly sat down. "Elder brother... is what you said true!? It seems it really has to be you, elder brother! Am I right, Commander Qin Hu!?"

"That's right, Your Majesty! As long as His Highness is here, no matter how strong they are, they are nothing more than crumbling earthen dogs before him..." Commander Qin Hu, who was nearby, quickly chimed in, showering Xia Jin with praise.

Only after Xia Jin glared at him fiercely did Commander Qin Hu quickly shut his mouth.

"Right, you can ignore other matters for now, but another thing must be accelerated. Hurry up and unify the Eastern Domain! Now that the Great Qian and Lieyang dynasties have been destroyed, after unifying the Eastern Domain, it will be the perfect opportunity to officially take control of it." Xia Jin looked at Emperor Xia Yu with a serious expression.

Emperor Xia Yu's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he nodded heavily. "Rest assured, elder brother! Actually, had it not been for the sudden disaster in the Central Domain disrupting our plans, all the countries in the Eastern Domain would have belonged to Great Xia within a month. Now that those three have been forced back by you, I can immediately restart our plan for unification!"

"Very good." Xia Jin smiled with satisfaction. "I leave this matter entirely to you; if you encounter any difficulties, come find me at any time."

"Yes!" Emperor Xia Yu was energized, the exhaustion of the past few days swept away, and he quickly took his leave. Commander Qin Hu, who was nearby, also tactfully exited the hall.

Only Xia Jin and Leng Yuexi remained in the hall.

Leng Yuexi nestled gently into Xia Jin's embrace, looking up at him with a hint of confusion in her eyes. "Husband! Just now, although you said you had driven those guys who destroyed the Central Domain out of the Eastern Domain, I know that with your usual style of handling things, you wouldn't easily leave survivors, let alone let enemies leave. Presumably, those people's strength must be extraordinary, right!"

Xia Jin put his arm around Leng Yuexi's slender waist, took a deep breath of the floral fragrance coming from her, and then nodded. "To be honest, those three are indeed not simple. In particular, I have a feeling. It's that they don't seem to be in their Peak state; it's more like... they are people who have been under a Seal for a long time and have just awakened."

Hearing this, a trace of worry flashed in Leng Yuexi's eyes.

"No, you don't need to worry! With me here, they won't be able to stir up any trouble!" Xia Jin smiled and patted Leng Yuexi's cheek, his eyes filled with immense confidence. "Regardless of their background, if they come again next time, I will ensure they never return."

After absorbing the 1,500 years of cultivation rewarded by the System, he would very likely break through to the Nine Heavens of the Land Immortal Realm.

By then, his strength would undergo another qualitative leap, and even if those three returned to their Peak state, he would not be the least bit concerned.

When Xia Jin said this, although it made people feel he was incredibly overbearing, in Leng Yuexi's eyes, it directly caused a daze to appear in her beautiful eyes.

This was her man, Leng Yuexi's man, a man who could always turn the tide in critical moments and give her an incomparable sense of security.

She couldn't help but look up and press a light kiss on Xia Jin's lips.

Xia Jin was stunned for a moment, then chuckled softly. "Little vixen, daring to tease your husband?"

After speaking, he swept Leng Yuexi up into his arms. Leng Yuexi let out a soft exclamation, wrapped her arms around his neck, and a blush spread across her face.

Xia Jin waved his hand, and the palace doors slammed shut.

The next day, before dawn, at an ordinary mansion outside the Great Xia Imperial Capital.

An inconspicuous carriage slowly drove in through the back door and stopped in the courtyard.

Hearing the commotion, the two sisters, Luo Qinghe and Luo Qingyao, quickly walked out of their room and headed towards the carriage.

A middle-aged man in grey robes stepped down from the carriage; it was none other than Jun Wuxie.

"Uncle Jun!" Luo Qingyao stepped forward happily, grabbing his arm and shaking it. "You've finally returned! If we had waited a few more days without news, my sister and I were planning to go look for you!"

Luo Qinghe also showed joy on her face and nodded at him. "Uncle Jun, let's go inside to talk."

The three entered the inner chamber, and after a maid served tea, she withdrew.

After Luo Qinghe personally poured a cup of tea for Jun Wuxie, she asked, "Uncle Jun, what is the situation now with those countries on the border between the Eastern Domain and the Central Domain?"

Jun Wuxie picked up the teacup, took a sip, and his expression became solemn. "Eldest Young Miss, Second Young Miss! A major event happened yesterday!"

"Back when the Lieyang Dynasty in the Central Domain was destroyed, you two Young Misses decided to head east to avoid disaster; later, when the Great Qian Dynasty was destroyed, you traveled from the Yuehua Dynasty to this Great Xia, which is at the easternmost edge. I remained in the Yuehua Dynasty to observe the situation, and just yesterday..."

Luo Qingyao felt a bit nervous. "What happened yesterday?"

"Yesterday, the culprits who destroyed the Lieyang and Great Qian dynasties descended upon the Yuehua Dynasty!"

"What?!" Luo Qingyao's face turned deathly pale. "Then... wouldn't the Yuehua Dynasty be..."

A trace of shock also flashed in Luo Qinghe's phoenix eyes, but she was not as panicked as her younger sister, Luo Qingyao. "Uncle Jun, and then what? The Yuehua Dynasty didn't follow in the footsteps of the Lieyang Dynasty, did it..."

Jun Wuxie shook his head and suddenly smiled. "You two Young Misses need not panic; the Yuehua Dynasty... is safe and sound."

"Hmm!? How is that possible!?" Jun Wuxie's words immediately left both women stunned.
