Chapter 9

Half a month later, in the Cloud Prince's Mansion, inside the heir's courtyard.

Since summoning the net, Su Ye seemed to have regained the feeling of logging onto the Internet in his previous life.

Without stepping outside, one can know all affairs under heaven.

Every day, a steady stream of intelligence arrives from the various countries of the Tianwu Continent.

Although this Internet is open only to him, it still lets Su Ye regain a bit of the feeling from his previous life.

But

"Taiping Sect?"

"Somewhat interesting."

Looking at this piece of internal Da Qian intelligence in his hand, Su Ye's expression turned somewhat amused.

It seems the system just descended, and when it clashed with another system, among the several sets of data that fell, one set was Zhang Jue's three brothers.

Moreover, Zhang Jue's three brothers were implanted into Da Qian, and they again took the old path, founding the Taiping Sect.

Or rather, the Yellow Turbans!

But for me, it seems like a good thing?

As one of the five great dynasties of the Tianwu Continent, the Da Qian dynasty holds the Nine Provinces.

Of these, five provinces lie in the north of the Central Region, two in the Northern Border, and two in the Eastern Lands.

Between the two provinces of the Eastern Lands and the Central Region each lies a strategic pass that separates them.

Of the two strategic passes, Dongning Pass behind Cangzhou is garrisoned by the imperial court, while Dongling Pass behind Yunzhou is jointly garrisoned by the court and the Nine Heavens Army.

Because the imperial court cannot entrust the entire eastern gateway of the Central Region solely to the Cloud Prince's Mansion.

Likewise, the Cloud Prince's Mansion and the Nine Heavens Army naturally could not entrust their sole retreat to the court's control.

Thus, Yunzhou, where the Cloud Prince's Mansion and the Nine Heavens Army reside, is actually separate from the heartland of Da Qian, as long as Dongning Pass and Dongling Pass are held.

Then, no matter how the five central provinces of Da Qian's heartland descend into chaos, it has nothing to do with the Nine Heavens Army.

After all, the primary duty of the Nine Heavens Army is to defend the Eastern Lands against the Great Yong dynasty, and when free, it lends support to Cangzhou, helping it fight against northern barbarians.

Unfortunately, this time Zhang Jue's incursion occurred precisely within Da Qian's five central provinces, where the main forces of the Taiping Sect are also located.

Then suppressing this internal rebellion does not fall under the Nine Heavens Army's jurisdiction.

"So."

"I have to add fuel to their fire!"

Su Ye propped his chin and smiled faintly.

With the motley crew of trash fish and rotten shrimp that Zhang Jue brought, they cannot withstand the crackdown of Da Qian, this top-tier dynasty.

So, Su Ye needs to help them.

Not saying let the Taiping Sect withstand Da Qian's pressure, but at least we cannot let them lose too quickly.

As long as the Taiping Sect endures a bit longer, it will be a huge blow to the prestige of the Da Qian dynasty.

"So."

"System, I want to summon!"

"What is that balancing mechanism like?"

Su Ye decided to first balance once, to see what implanted identity he gets.

If it really doesn't work out, he'll have to roll up his sleeves and do it himself.

Secretly dispatch a few outstanding individuals to support the Taiping Sect.

The longer the Taiping Sect endures, the more time the Nine Heavens Army can prepare.

"Ding! The balancing mechanism: after the host summons three, four, five times respectively, the system will correspondingly balance out three, four, five individuals, in a cycle of three rounds."

"Furthermore, the host can intercept one to three individuals from the summoned characters, and then the balanced implanted identity is averaged for all emperor stars; that is, the host's chance of obtaining a balanced individual is the same as for other emperor stars!"

The system's mechanical prompt sounded in Su Ye's mind.

"Huh?"

"Looks not bad!"

Su Ye froze for a moment; after he finishes summoning, he will then take one to three from the balanced pool, and finally split the remaining balanced individuals equally with the other emperor stars?

A three-way split, directly raking in the profits, alright!

Su Ye always thought the balanced characters would have no share for him, never expecting the system to balance for all emperor stars.

"System, first give me a Saint Rank martial power summon card to liven things up!"

Thinking this, the delighted Su Ye waved his hand and issued an order to the system.

"Ding! War God summon card in use."

"Ding, summoning the first person: Hundred Beasts Kaduo, Commander-in-Chief 76, Martial Force 106, Intelligence 65, Politics 62."

Hundred Beasts Kaduo, a character from the anime One Piece.

Among all living beings on land, sea, and air, he is called the "strongest creature" pirate—"Hundred Beasts Kaduo".

"Ding! Summoning the second person: Divine Spear General Jiang Song, Commander-in-Chief 72, Martial Force 108, Intelligence 73, Politics 62."

This Jiang Song is even superior to Hundred Beasts Kaduo; in the romance, he is capable of fighting the invincible Li Yuanba.

Jiang Song, courtesy name Yongnian, is the half-brother of Luo Cheng, known as the Divine Spear General, the foremost general under heaven; he has mastered five of the seven sets of the ancestral Jiang family spear techniques: the Five Hook Spear, Five Division Spear, Mother-Child Spear, Overlord Looking Emperor Spear, and Drawer Spear; the remaining two sets are the Pear Blossom Ghost Chaos Spear and Five Tiger Breaking Soul Spear, suitable for women to practice.

Furthermore, he later created his own spear technique, the Coiled Cloud Mother-Child Spear, which combines the Jiang family's seven spear sets; it can be called the strongest spear technique from ancient times to the present.

Jiang Song is the first supreme talent in the Sui-Tang Romance; wielding his spear on horseback, he is an invincible hero.

In the storytelling, there is also a saying: "One fierce, one outstanding, meet one supreme." This refers to Meng Ben Luo Shixin, the first of the Four Fierce of Sui-Tang, who can contend with Prince Zhao Li Yuanba of the Western Manor, the top hero among the Thirteen Outstanding of Sui-Tang.

Spear and hammer entwined, no one dares to step forward.

Finally, with a single lift of his spear, this first of the Four Absolutes of Sui-Tang, Jiang Song, parts them apart—showing just how formidable this hero is.

Ding! Summon the third person, Asura Armor Flame Emperor, Commander-in-Chief 63, martial power 108, intelligence 70, politics 60

Flame Emperor was once the leader of Flame Star, the top summoner of Asura Armor, the Galaxy's foremost summoner, and also the strongest in combat power in the Galaxy, being called the 'Galaxy's Number One War Tyrant', but being overly arrogant, so Lu Fa evaluated him as 'invincible under heaven, yet defeated again and again'

Although the system weakened it, the base martial of 108 also proves its formidable martial power

Ding! Summon the fourth person, Invincible Giant, Commander-in-Chief 60, martial power 106, intelligence 58, politics 59

Invincible Giant once single-handedly fought Liu Xiu's Yuntai Thirty-Six Generals; even with armor hindering, he could still battle Jia Fu for over a hundred rounds, and even Ma Wu's arrogance had to acknowledge the Invincible Giant's invincibility under heaven!

Ding! Summon the fifth person, Heavenly Treasure General Yuwen Chengdu, Commander-in-Chief 80, martial power 107, intelligence 72, politics 68

Yuwen Chengdu, who descended as the Heavenly Sovereign of Thunderous Universal Transformation from the upper realm, bears the dragon's fate of three years, and his martial power ranks second among the heroes of the Sui and Tang dynasties

He once defeated the fifth-ranked Wu Yunzhao at Nanyang Pass; at Pingping Mountain he defeated the combined forces of the fourth-ranked Xiong Kuohai, Wu Yunzhao, and the sixth-ranked Wu Tianxi; later, due to unrecovered stamina, he lost to the third-ranked Pei Yuanqing, and at the Jinyang martial arts contest he lost to the first-ranked Li Yuanba

The Yuwen Chengdu that people see is formidable and unyielding, brimming with pride and self-respect, both admirable and lamentable

"System, after removing Beast Kai Duo and the Invincible Giant, proceed with summoning among the remaining three."

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained……"
