Chapter 261: The Emperor Descends

"Rong'er, you are right; I was too pedantic."

"Fortunately, you scolded me awake."

"I will go find Master and admit my mistake!"

After Guo Jing said this to Huang Rong, he was about to go find Hong Qi.

"Brother Jing, it is so late; let us see Seven Old Man tomorrow!"

"I imagine Seven Old Man is still angry with you!"

Seeing that Guo Jing was about to go find Hong Qi, Huang Rong hurriedly pulled him back and explained to him.

However, seeing Guo Jing finally awakened, Huang Rong was also happy for him.

Soon, the day of Liu Bian's boundary crossing arrived.

Shen Diao World, the former capital of the Song Kingdom, Lin'an City, had now been designated by Guo Jia as the temporary seat of government for the Great Han.

And within these three days, Zhao Yun had also led the 100,000 Xiangyang troops and arrived in Lin'an City.

Those other cities of the Song Kingdom had also all defected to the Great Han.

Only a few cities in the south that were relatively far away had not yet had personnel arrive.

However, those cities had also already dispatched personnel to Lin'an.

And in Lin'an City, under Guo Jia's iron-fisted methods, those aristocratic families had all obediently handed over the land in their hands.

At this time, quite a few common people had already been allocated farmland.

The people of Lin'an City now were exceptionally enthusiastic toward the Great Han.

At this moment, in Lin'an City, countless common people flooded the streets.

They all knew that today would be the day the Emperor of the Great Han Empire arrived.

Everyone wanted to see Liu Bian with their own eyes.

They wanted to thank Liu Bian properly.

It was because of Liu Bian that they possessed their own land, and their future lives had hope.

At this time, outside the South Gate of Lin'an City, Lü Bu, Zhao Yun, and Guo Jia stood before the 100,000 Divine Martial Army soldiers.

One step behind the three were Li Mochou, Hong Qi, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and Hong Lingbo, who had returned.

Behind the five of them were the mid-level generals of the Divine Martial Army.

The 100,000 Divine Martial Army soldiers radiated a dense aura of blood and slaughter.

The common people who came to watch were all excited.

However, regarding the aura of blood and slaughter radiated by these Divine Martial Army soldiers, although they felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Yet, no one felt afraid.

"Truly a tiger-wolf army; with such an army, it is no wonder the Han Kingdom could annihilate the entire Song Kingdom within half a month."

Sensing the momentum of the army behind him, Guo Jing could not help but think to himself.

"Haha, the Son of Heaven of the Great Han is coming; I must see His Majesty's dignity with my own eyes!"

"Exactly, the Son of Heaven coming in person is a great blessing!"

"Haha, His Majesty is wise!"

"Previously, under the rule of those corrupt officials in the Song Kingdom, we lived lives worse than death; now, fortunately, His Majesty dispatched the Heavenly Army to annihilate the Song Kingdom."

"He even distributed the land of those aristocratic families to us common people, provided us with high-yield seeds, and reduced taxes; only then did we have hope to live. Today, the Son of Heaven of our Great Han is coming, I must thank His Majesty properly!"

"That is exactly right; when His Majesty arrives, I must also kowtow to His Majesty a few times to express my gratitude."

The watching common people all cheered joyfully.

Just like this, in the anticipation of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, time passed slowly.

Two hours passed by just like that.

And the watching common people had not yet seen the Emperor appear.

"What is going on? Why has the Son of Heaven of the Great Han not appeared after so long?"

"Yes, where exactly is the Son of Heaven coming from? It has been more than two hours, and he has not arrived yet."

Quite a few common people were whispering in confusion.

At this time, those who knew the Great Han was not from this world could be counted on one hand.

Just like this, after another half-hour passed.

Suddenly, a fluctuation appeared in the space above.

Immediately after, ripples appeared in the space not far from Lü Bu and the others.

"Crack, crack, crack."

Following the appearance of a space rift, a portal radiating golden light suddenly appeared from the space rift.

After landing, the golden light dissipated, and the portal grew rapidly.

Finally, it revealed a huge portal.

The portal was covered with ancient and mysterious runes.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz."

A buzzing sound came, and a blue vortex appeared on the portal.

Immediately after, five martial general figures clad in black armor appeared before everyone's eyes.

These five were none other than Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, and the others.

After nodding to Lü Bu and the others, Huang Zhong and the five dispersed along the Space Gate.

Subsequently, a majestic figure clad in a purple-gold nine-clawed golden dragon robe and wearing an Emperor's Flat Heaven Crown walked out from the Space Gate.

This person was none other than the Emperor of the Great Han Empire, Liu Bian.

"This subordinate pays respects to Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

After seeing Liu Bian appear, the commanders of the six major legions, Guo Jia, and the others knelt on the ground in unison and shouted in unison.

At the same time, the 100,000 Divine Martial Army soldiers also bowed simultaneously:

"Pay respects to Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

And at this time, the watching common people were also brought back to their senses by this heaven-shaking shout.

They could not care about the shock in their hearts, and they knelt and bowed to Liu Bian one after another, shouting in unison:

"We, the subjects of the Great Han, pay respects to Your Majesty!"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

Liu Bian's majestic gaze swept over the crowd before he said to them:

"Beloved subjects, please rise."

The group of martial generals then rose and bowed to Liu Bian in thanks:

"This subordinate and others thank Your Majesty!"

Subsequently, Liu Bian said to the 100,000 Divine Martial Army soldiers with authority:

"My soldiers of the Great Han Empire, please rise!"

Liu Bian's majestic voice fell, and the 100,000 Divine Martial Army soldiers rose in unison, shouting with authority:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The uniform voice of the 100,000 Divine Martial Army soldiers went straight to the clouds.

"My subjects of the Great Han Empire, please rise!"

Finally, Liu Bian looked at the surrounding common people and said with authority.

Adding the True Yuan power of a Martial Ancestor Realm powerhouse, Liu Bian's voice resounded throughout Lin'an City.

Even those who were not present heard Liu Bian's voice clearly.

Hearing Liu Bian acknowledge that they were all subjects of the Great Han Empire, the common people were all filled with excitement.

"We, the subjects of the Great Han, thank Your Majesty!"

They were originally common people of the Song Kingdom, and this time they heard Liu Bian personally acknowledge that they were subjects of the Great Han.

For them, this could be considered the best news.

After all, this was the Emperor of the Great Han Empire personally acknowledging their status.

And just at this time, two people dressed as civil officials walked out from the Space Gate.

These two were none other than two of the Six Ministers of the Great Han Empire who had come to the Shen Diao World.

Minister of Personnel Xun Yu and Minister of Justice Jia Xu.

After the two came out, they looked around the scene and then respectfully came behind Liu Bian.

Finally, the soldiers of the six major legions began to walk out from the Space Gate one after another.

This scene also left the watching common people excited beyond compare. ===== CHAPTER 262 =====
