Chapter 259: Ancestral Dragon

Others were also stunned.

That's the commander of Beautiful Country—you just say kill and kill?

Seeing the President look excited, everyone grew a bit anxious.

"President, think twice—if we really kill the Beautiful Country's commander, we might trigger season 3."

"Exactly, President, please don't act impulsively."

"Please think carefully."

Everyone hurriedly said.

The President then chuckled and said, "Of course I know; I was just talking earlier—how could we really kill Beautiful Country's commander? To suppress Beautiful Country, we must apply comprehensive pressure from all aspects; only then can we achieve Long Guo's complete revival. Killing one of their commanders isn't enough."

Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the President didn't act impulsively.

They looked at Qin Yang, their eyes tinged with Jìngwèi.

With Beautiful Country's commander, it's kill on sight—this person must not be provoked.

Qin Yang wore a look of regret.

"Last time I destroyed two of their cities, still not satisfied—I thought I could go again to Beautiful Country and, by the way, take two more cities."

Everyone froze for a moment, then realized.

They stared at Qin Yang in disbelief.

Beautiful Country had two cities destroyed; they naturally knew this news.

But no one expected that Qin Yang was the one who did it.

That's two cities, with hundreds of thousands of people.

They just died like that, and Beautiful Country didn't even react.

What does that show?

They knew all too well.

Even Beautiful Country didn't dare provoke Qin Yang, even suppressing the matter.

The President smiled; he had long known it was Qin Yang.

At that moment, a flash of light appeared in Qin Yang's hand.

The Heirloom Jade Seal appeared; he tossed it directly to a guard beside the President.

The guard jumped in fright and quickly caught it.

The President also broke out in sweat on his forehead.

Qin Yang completely disregards the Heirloom Jade Seal—if it were dropped, he'd have nowhere to cry.

"It's just a Heirloom Jade Seal; look how nervous you are."

Qin Yang shook his head.

Heirloom Jade Seal?

The others' eyes lit up.

They had been summoned by the President, who said he would let them see a treasure.

No one expected that this object was actually the Heirloom Jade Seal.

Seeing Qin Yang's nonchalant attitude, they thought he was throwing away trash.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'm leaving. Do whatever you want with the Heirloom Jade Seal; I've placed a marker on it—if it leaves the capital, I'll sense it and appear immediately to retrieve it."

Since it concerns Long Guo's national fortune, Qin Yang naturally wouldn't be completely indifferent.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin."

The President gave a solemn thank-you.

The others exchanged glances and also thanked Qin Yang.

The appearance of the Heirloom Jade Seal excited everyone.

"You're welcome."

Qin Yang waved his hand, preparing to leave.

"Mr. Qin, please wait a moment."

The President said.

"Anything else?"

Qin Yang asked.

"Please, Daoist Priest Li."

At that moment, the President spoke.

A middle-aged man appeared, possessing an immortal aura.

He looked even more like a cultivator than Qin Yang, wearing a fitted Daoist robe, his whole bearing telling others he was extraordinary.

Qin Yang's gaze fell on him—a Golden Core cultivator whose strength wasn't particularly strong.

What does the President want this person for?

Does he have something to say to me?

"Junior pays respects to senior."

Li Daozhang bowed to Qin Yang, his attitude extremely respectful.

Qin Yang slightly nodded; in the cultivation world, the strong are respected, and regardless of seniority or strength, the other party is far beneath him.

Normally, a stranger at Golden Core stage wouldn't even get the chance to call him senior.

The President's whole body shuddered.

In his view, Master Li was versed in heavenly and human knowledge, like an immortal.

In front of Qin Yang, he was actually so humble; it seems he still underestimated Qin Yang's status in the cultivation world.

"Hmm."

Qin Yang nodded.

Daoist Li let out a breath of relief.

Facing such a top-tier figure in the cultivation world, it's impossible not to be nervous.

He never expected the President could invite Qin Yang.

"What on earth is going on?"

Qin Yang asked.

Daoist Li glanced at the President, the President nodded, signaling him to continue.

"It's like this: Junior, observing the heavens at night, discovered that Long Guo has seen an Emperor Star appear, extraordinarily bright, even surpassing the current Emperor Star by far."

Daoist Li said.

Qin Yang said nothing, just stared at him.

Daoist Li continued: "The Emperor Star is in the northwest; I calculated and found that this Emperor Star has existed for two thousand years, once dimmed but never disappeared; since a few days ago the Western Capital Winners opened the Cultivators' Assembly, it has become ever more brilliant."

"What do you mean?"

Qin Yang asked.

"I dare to guess that this Emperor Star is the Ancestral Dragon Ying Zheng; Ying Zheng did not die but is in hiding, having built the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor to seek longevity; after the previous Cultivators' Assembly, the First Emperor is about to return."

Saying this, Daoist Li's expression grew solemn.

Qin Yang furrowed his brows slightly and said lightly: "Even if the Ancestral Dragon is reborn, what then? Surely we don't have to revive Great Qin again? Back then he could abandon his kingdom for longevity; now two thousand years have passed—could he possibly emerge to contend for the world?"

Daoist Li gave a bitter smile.

That is the one emperor of all ages, the First Emperor, the Ancestral Dragon.

Who can guarantee he doesn't have such thoughts?

Two thousand years have passed; what level has the First Emperor's strength reached now?

No one has considered it.

But it can be certain that if the First Emperor is willing to come out, it shows his strength has reached a terrifying level.

"Are you worried the Ancestral Dragon wants to revive Great Qin?"

Qin Yang's gaze fell on the President.

"Such worries are unavoidable."

The President sighed.

Qin Yang thought, then smiled and said: "Alright, I'll go to the Western Capital and ask the Ancestral Dragon."

Daoist Li was stunned.

He only wanted Qin Yang to pay attention; just in case the Ancestral Dragon reappears and seeks to rebuild Great Qin, then Qin Yang could rally the cultivation world to act.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yang directly wants to go find the Ancestral Dragon.

"Senior's great righteousness."

Daoist Li said solemnly.

Qin Yang glanced at him and said lightly: "How do I feel that you think I won't come back?"

Daoist Li gave a dry laugh.

Qin Yang's gaze fell on the President and he said lightly: "I'll handle the cultivation world's affairs; you just need to guarantee that Long Guo grows ever stronger and that the lives of its people keep improving."

"Certainly."

The President said solemnly.

"I'm heading to the Western Capital now."

Having said that, Qin Yang's figure vanished.

"President, rest assured; since the senior has decided to act, there should be no problem. After all, the senior is now considered the foremost expert openly in the cultivation world; if he can't resolve it, no one else can."

Daoist Li sighed.

"I believe in him."

The President said.

Afterward, he swept his gaze over the crowd and said lightly: "Everyone has heard Mr. Qin's words; we must not let him down, we must make Long Guo ever more prosperous and ensure the people's lives keep improving."

"Of course."

"President, rest assured."

"We dare not forget our original aspiration."

……

The President smiled.

However, he also knew that although they say this, what they truly think is hard to say.

Those who are truly wholeheartedly for the people are one in ten thousand.
