111: Spiritual builders repay evil with good.

Above the Cangling Chamber of Commerce, a figure stood in the air, gazing at the annihilated Cangling Chamber of Commerce. Gu Fang's expression was placid.

"Betraying your master and expecting to live? Simply daydreaming."

The Gu Jixiao that Qin Tianqiu imagined was merely his own assumption.

In fact, everything was under Gu Jixiao's control.

Losing one Cangling Chamber of Commerce had no impact on Gu Jixiao; after all, he still had the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

When the time came, he would let the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion take over the Eastern Region.

Soon, two days passed.

In front of Heavenly Spirit Mountain, looking at the Sect before him, Xu Haotian couldn't help but sigh, his face full of melancholy, secretly making an oath in his heart.

"Damn Ancient Heavenly Dynasty, one day when I possess sufficient power, I will definitely make all of you pay the price."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire Primordial Immortal Sect was instantly flattened by a single slap from Chen Guchuan, who stood suspended in the air.

With the Sect destroyed, Xu Haotian and the others could only lead the remaining Disciples toward a new Sect base.

Chen Guchuan, however, did not take them seriously.

What Your Majesty has shown now is likely just the tip of the iceberg. With the strength of the Primordial Immortal Sect, they probably couldn't catch up to the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty even after another twenty thousand years.

Even after twenty thousand years, they wouldn't even be able to see the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty's dust.

After leveling the Primordial Immortal Sect, Chen Guchuan spoke to the ten people beside him in a calm tone.

"The construction of the Imperial Palace is entrusted to you. Remember, it must be absolutely luxurious and imposing. Your Majesty will move the capital in eight days. If Your Majesty is displeased, you know the consequences."

Those ten people were Spirit Architects Chen Guchuan had captured in the Central Province: one Tenth-Grade, two Ninth-Grade, and seven Eighth-Grade.

The so-called Spirit Architect was a Cultivator specifically tasked with constructing buildings for powerful factions.

Buildings constructed by Spirit Architects could possess special effects, including but not limited to resisting power and isolating Divine Sense detection.

Previously, the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty's Imperial Palace had taken three Third-Grade Spirit Architects a full year to construct.

And a Tenth-Grade Spirit Architect was a mighty expert whom only a Holy Land was qualified to command.

After all, those who could become Tenth-Grade Spirit Architects possessed terrifying connections on one hand, and terrifying personal cultivation on the other, reaching the Great Emperor Realm.

Therefore, no one was willing to offend an Architect, especially a Tenth-Grade Spirit Architect.

However, after eliminating Great Emperor Leiting and Purple Flame Great Emperor, the formidable prestige of the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty had been established.

Thus, even a Tenth-Grade Spirit Architect dared not offend the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty.

Upon Chen Guchuan's arrival, they agreed without a second thought.

As Chen Guchuan spoke, those ten Spirit Architects dared not delay and immediately began constructing the brand new Imperial Palace.

Meanwhile, within the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty, Gu Jixiao appeared above the former Imperial Palace of the Dayan Dynasty as he took a step.

However, the Dayan Imperial Capital no longer existed, having completely become a part of the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty.

Arriving at the Dayan Imperial Capital, Gu Jixiao spoke in a calm tone.

"Imperial Brother, aren't you going to come out and see me?"

Simultaneously, King Gu Ji, who was handling the state affairs of the Dayan Dynasty in the Imperial Palace, was startled and immediately jumped up upon hearing Gu Jixiao's voice.

He then revealed a wry smile.

Although he didn't want to listen, the events concerning the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty in recent days had reached his ears one after another; it was impossible not to hear them.

Therefore, he knew just how terrifying his good Sixth Brother had become now.

So, he could only hope that his Sixth Brother would not hold the past matters against him; otherwise, his death would be certain.

However, King Gu Ji was clearly overthinking; Gu Jixiao had not come because of that matter.

The next moment, King Gu Ji flew out of the Imperial Palace, arrived before Gu Jixiao, and respectfully cupped his hands in salute.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Mhm. I have come today to have you change locations. Effective immediately, you will accompany me to the Central Province and manage the entire Central Province for me."

Gu Jixiao spoke with an air of nonchalance, which caused King Gu Ji to freeze on the spot.

After a long pause, he finally reacted and spoke dazedly.

"Your Majesty, are you sure you aren't joking? Asking me to manage the entire Central Province?"

"Hmm? What, you are unwilling?"

Gu Jixiao frowned and spoke.

Eventually, he would surely have to leave the Heavenly Saint Continent and head toward vaster worlds.

Therefore, someone needed to manage the affairs of the Heavenly Saint Continent for him. The Northern Desert, Southern Wasteland, Western Heaven, and Eastern Region already had people in charge; only the most crucial Central Province lacked management.

King Gu Ji, who shared blood ties with him, was obviously the most suitable candidate.

After all, it was better to entrust matters to a relative than to an outsider.

"Also, this is an emperor creation pill. Consume it, and you can immediately achieve the Peak Great Emperor Realm, but the side effect is that you can never advance further. Take it to Cultivate your confidants."

Gu Jixiao took out the last emperor creation pill and handed it to King Gu Ji.

King Gu Ji looked at the pill in his hand, which exuded a rich aura, and felt deeply moved. Immediately after, he gritted his teeth and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, I apologize. It was under my instruction that Xiao Chun and Xiao Xia acted against you. I have wronged you, Your Majesty. If you wish to kill me, then kill me."

Gu Jixiao's actions moved King Gu Ji, making him realize how ridiculous he had been back then.

Therefore, he stepped forward to admit his actions, solely because he did not want to live the rest of his life in unease.

At least now that he had confessed, he wouldn't utter a single word about whatever Gu Jixiao decided to do.

Seeing King Gu Ji step forward to admit the past incident, Gu Jixiao was slightly surprised.

"I thought you wouldn't admit it. Never mind, what's past is past. Who told you that you are my elder brother?"

Gu Jixiao waved his hand, indicating he hadn't taken it too seriously.

After all, if he hadn't been poisoned, he might not have had the chance for Transmigration.

Furthermore, he was currently lacking manpower. It wouldn't be too late to kill him once he had more people.

Seeing Gu Jixiao repaying malice with kindness, King Gu Ji was deeply moved, tears streaming down his face. He immediately made a Heavenly Dao Oath to Gu Jixiao, vowing never to betray him for all eternity.

"Alright, prepare yourselves. In five days, you will accompany me to the Central Province. The other four regions are being managed by Ji Yuan and the others."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Gu Jixiao departed, King Gu Ji looked at the emperor creation pill in his hand, took a deep breath, and prepared to consume it himself.

After all, he knew his own talent. If he hadn't been the First Prince, he might not have even reached the Void Refining Realm at his age.

With his talent, he likely wouldn't touch the threshold of the Great Emperor Realm in his entire life.

Therefore, consuming the emperor creation pill was his best option.
