Chapter 939
Within a thousand miles outside the majestic pass, it can be called a holy land of martial arts. The heaven and earth essence here is still chaotic, and the aftermath of the battle between the three Celestial Experts remains. Not only did it leave a large amount of traces containing divine charm, but the weather here is also extremely changeable, and within the mountain ranges formed after the fall of the two demon race Great Sages, there are risks and wonders everywhere, and there are even mountain bodies floating in the sky.
If you can dig open the solid mountain body, there are also rare and strange mineral deposits inside, and the mountains are full of strange trees and exotic grasses. Even the creatures that naturally grow here have many types of special mutations. It's a pity that ordinary martial artists can't move an inch here—the unknown flame blade revolves here and appears from time to time. If you meet it, you will be killed and turned into fly ash.
Bai Lang returned to Longcheng to heal his injuries, and his name as "Fire Virtue Star Lord" has shaken the world. He is the number one among the world's top martial arts Celestial Experts. It is a pity that he is the youngest Celestial Expert—you can know that this guy can suppress the world for hundreds of years.
Thanks to Bai Lang's killing of the two Great Sages, Black Wind and Swallowing Heaven, and the prestige of exterminating the wolf race, the Jingtai Emperor took the opportunity to shake up. He used Bai Lang to threaten the ministers in the court—and for the other princes who fought for the succession that year, he also relaxed his hands a little—for example, he allowed the third brother to go to the south to be a border king, and the second brother was also released to move freely, but he could not leave the capital.
As for the control of other brothers, it was even looser. The fourth brother could even travel out of the capital, but there were many Jin Yi Guards and Eastern Depot guards in the guards following him.
And the great clans and families in the southeast also restrained a little—the imperial court has the number one martial artist in the world. Even if they heard that this martial artist was seriously injured, no one dared to try to see if he had lost his combat effectiveness. For a time, the Great Wu Dynasty actually had a sign of revival...
It's just that Xiangpang in the southwest seems to completely ignore this point. Many strange people and scholars have defected to him and fought with the imperial court army supported by many great clans in the southwest.
Bai Lang, who returned to Longcheng, looked at the God-Conferring Platform in his princely mansion. Xiangpang had already filled many names on this God-Conferring List. It seems that most of them are officials and great clans and families in the southwest. "That kid's killing nature is not small." Looking at the way of death, many people from great clans were executed after being captured—Bai Lang saw many public trial meetings on the high platform, and these people were executed under the roar of poor people below.
"Changing the world? I really don't know which guy is intervening behind the scenes." Bai Lang is not surprised at all by this scene, and with the situation of the Great Wu Dynasty, it is not impossible to have a constitutional revolution with developed commerce—the development of society is by no means a step-by-step thing. The feudal dynasty must be overthrown by some bourgeois revolution, and there must be half-steps or even repetitions in it.
In this situation, if Xiangpang destroys the Great Wu Dynasty, the great clans and families will definitely be swept into the dustbin of history. As for what kind of society will be established? Bai Lang is inclined to be a republic, or a new dynasty. The possibility of a new dynasty is greater.
In the case of Grandmasters and Celestial Experts, will the industrial revolution appear? Bai Lang feels that as long as physics still exists, the industrial revolution will definitely exist. It is just that it may not necessarily be a steam engine. In the case of great power belonging to oneself, it seems that a dynasty or an oligarchic republic is more likely.
"Don't think so much. Heal the injury first." The two princesses have no effect in this process. What they can do is only arrange the daily activities of the Yeluohuo cavalry according to Bai Lang's orders. Bai Lang seems to have become an idle prince, lying half-lying and half-sitting in the princely mansion all day long, dazed.
In fact, he is using his divine skill to suppress the injury, gradually grinding away the endless Celestial Expert true Qi. Only after removing this true Qi can he talk about using divine skills and secret medicine to heal the wound quickly. At this time, Bai Lang's martial arts can only exert 30% at most, but no one dares to bet, so he is not worried about assassination at all.
Bai Lang controlled it very well, and there was not a trace of fire energy leaking out—if he made the top of the princely mansion full of fire clouds and magma flowing on the ground, the Celestial Experts who assassinated him would have come long ago.
"Humph, this big brother is doing quite happily. It's a pity that it's just a flash in the pan. This Great Wu Dynasty is definitely going to finish." Bai Lang looked at the battle report, and there has always been news from the imperial court reaching his ears. The corruption of the Great Wu Dynasty has not changed at all, so the future of the imperial court will naturally not change.
The Jingtai Emperor wanted to rectify the officialdom, tried hard to raid the homes of several corrupt officials to make up for the deficit of the national treasury, forced the bastards who had borrowed money from the national treasury to repay the money quickly, and tried every means to deduct the money that should be given to the vassal kings. However, it was useless. In this era, vassal kings lived more happily and easily than the Son of Heaven, and the officials who raided the homes were basically Duolong and Wei Xiaobao, directly erasing the first digit and dividing it into two.
If the Jingtai Emperor really knew all this, I'm afraid he would have to perform the "My money!" small theater every day. The deficit of the national treasury of tens of millions cannot be made up, and it is estimated that there will be a deficit of tens of millions this year. If it weren't for the southwest being beaten to pieces and not needing to give money to those states and counties, I'm afraid the deficit would be even greater—those places were originally money-losing goods, that is, losing more or losing less.
For more than a hundred years since the founding of the country, the southwest has been a profitable place, that is, it only began to lose money gradually later.
Another good news this year is that the money and grain paid by the southeast great clans to the imperial court have reached a new high in these fifty years. This is probably because of Bai Lang and Xiangpang, who is rebelling in the southwest? Xiangpang's style made them know one thing, that is, once this master comes over, the thousand-year great clan will definitely be overturned in one day, and it is highly probable that the whole family will be killed.
So the Great Wu Dynasty cannot die. It is best for the strongest martial artist of the Great Wu Dynasty, who is now in the sun, to go to war and die with the rebel in the southwest. So while giving money and grain, they have been submitting memorials expecting the imperial court to suppress the rebellion, and the words secretly pointed out that it is best for Bai Lang, the Prince of Qin, to lead the army south.
Bai Lang just pretended not to hear this news. Even if the Jingtai Emperor's brain suddenly became dizzy, he would not execute this edict—with Bai Lang's prestige and ability today, he had long been able to listen to the tune but not the announcement.
Xiangpang's killing power is unparalleled, and his thunder blade divine skill draws nine-day divine thunder, which can be called invincible on the battlefield. There is no way to stop him without two Celestial Experts—this guy doesn't have a record of killing two Celestial Experts at the same time, but Bai Lang thinks he already has this ability.
