Chapter 1999

Guo Xiang listened, and her heart immediately grew alert.

Su Xiao is the one who loves memes in the group—she knows all about "you can't handle it" and "Panzi."

Fine, we're such good sisters, and yet you're trying to get rid of me?

Just as she was about to speak, a knock came from outside the door.

"Sister, Mom and Dad are here—let's go out."

With a thought, she took Guo Fu outside.

She opened the door to find Guo Jing and Qin Nanqin standing there.

"You're both here?" Guo Jing exclaimed. "Perfect—we came looking for Xiang'er too. Let's talk about the future together."

Guo Xiang nodded and led Guo Jing and his wife to witness the wonders of the cave heaven, drawing gasps of amazement from both, before turning to the matter at hand.

"Father, Mother, I plan to recruit people from another world, then begin ruling the realm and training the strong. Otherwise, future troubles will be hard to handle."

Guo Fu said matter-of-factly: "Can't we just ask those immortals from yesterday to help us out?"

Qin Nanqin was speechless—her daughter was older than Xiang'er, yet still clueless; she didn't know who she'd inherited that from.

Even her husband was merely a bit dull, not foolish.

Guo Jing shook his head: "Fu'er, relying on others for help can't be part of any plan. They aren't bound to come to our world."

Guo Xiang nodded: "Exactly. By the way, I sent a message to Hong Xia—she's already granted me access."

"I'll be right back."

Guo Jing asked: "They're from Japan—aren't you going to recruit from Japan?"

Naturally, Guo Jing was wary of foreign races; the thought stirred his resistance.

Guo Xiang laughed: "Father, what are you thinking? I'm going to recruit from the Central Plains—it's what we agreed on yesterday."

Guo Jing immediately relaxed: "Good."

The next moment, Guo Xiang opened the portal and vanished from the Guo residence.

A moment later.

In Xiang Yang City, a glowing gate dozens of meters tall appeared, and people clad in strange attire stepped out, curiously surveying this world.

"Is this Xiang Yang City from the Condor Heroes world?"

"So amazing! We never expected we'd be recruited by Lady Guo to work!"

"The Mongols are gone—we must unify this world so future generations won't have to learn English."

"No, not 'future generations'—call them 'later generations.' According to Boss Guo, after we cultivate, we'll achieve immortality—maybe even become immortals someday!"

Tens of thousands suddenly appeared in the city, instantly drawing crowds of onlookers.

Seeing these people, though dressed oddly, shared their own skin tone and appearance, the locals gradually relaxed.

"You recruited people this fast?"

Guo Jing's family was also startled and came out onto the street, staring in shock at the modern people.

Guo Jing murmured: "Is this how time works in the myriad worlds? I never believed it before, but now it's clear—the time flow in the myriad worlds is utterly different."

As he thought this, he saw his daughter emerge through the portal, hovering motionless in the air.

"The Zhao dynasty is unjust—I shall obey the orders of the celestial immortals above, overthrow the old order, and establish a new dynasty…"

Her voice rang loud, echoing in the ears of the city's people.

The people first froze in surprise, then burst into ecstatic joy.

Direct rule by immortals is surely better than the Zhao dynasty.

What are gods on this land?

Only the virtuous become gods after death.

A god's credibility is naturally better than any government.

Add to that the Guo family's impeccable reputation in Xiang Yang, and Guo Xiang's ascension faces no obstacle whatsoever.

The issue of gender was simply ignored by the people.

After all, to them, Guo Xiang was an immortal—a being beyond gender.

"So powerful!"

"No wonder she's Lady Guo!"

"That's my sister!"

Guo Fu felt immense pride, her eyes shining. "I wonder what position my sister will assign me."

Qin Nanqin heard Guo Fu's quiet muttering and felt a headache coming on.

Though both were her daughters, people are different.

If Guo Fu were put in charge, who knew what chaos she'd cause?

She exchanged a silent glance with Guo Jing, then said: "Fu'er, you'll help your sister manage the cave heaven. Leave the outside affairs to the recruits. As Xiang'er's sister, how could you act like an ordinary person?"

Guo Fu nodded eagerly.

That's right—I'm noble! How could I do the same work as commoners?

Seeing Guo Fu fooled so easily, Guo Jing and Qin Nanqin were speechless.

Only someone as naive as Fu'er could be fooled so easily!
