"System, which of these two methods should I choose?"

"Ding, the system suggests the host adopt the second one, cultivating the world yourself. After subduing the World Consciousness of the world you cultivated yourself, you can slowly cultivate it to the Heavenly Dao level, and the host will have absolute control over the world."

"System, World Will is not easy to subdue, right?"

"Ding, yes, the current strength of this world's will is equivalent to the Martial Ancestor Realm First Layer. The possibility of the host subduing it yourself is 0%. However, the host can spend National Fortune Value, and the system will help take action against the World Will. The host only needs to refine the World Will."

"Hahaha, system, you are really too thoughtful. In that case, only a fool would choose to break through and ascend! Isn't it fragrant to cultivate a top-level world yourself?"

After hearing the system's reply, Liu Bian was overjoyed. This system is really speechless, it will consider for the host. In that case, as long as he doesn't court death himself.

Liu Bian believes that relying on the system's help, he will definitely be able to dominate the heavens and myriad worlds. No one is useful, I said it!!!"

After chatting with the system, Liu Bian planned to rest well. There was no need to cultivate for now; this spiritual energy concentration was really not worth cultivating.

He would wait until he completed the system tasks to develop his forces well and improve the world level as soon as possible.

Three days passed in a flash, and Liu Bian finally waited for the day of the abdication ceremony. After dealing with the Imperial Palace affairs, the Great Han Empire would welcome its own glorious era.

He believed that relying on his own efforts, plus the system's help, the majesty of the Great Han Empire would definitely resound through the heavens and myriad worlds, and everyone would be proud to be a citizen of the Great Han Empire.

He would definitely be able to make every citizen of the empire like a dragon, and he firmly believed that this day would not be far away.

Luoyang, Prime Minister's Mansion. Today, the Prime Minister's Mansion was filled with a tense atmosphere everywhere. One could see Xiliang Army soldiers filled with murderous aura everywhere, each one majestic, wearing leather armor, holding curved blades, and filled with killing intent.

In the Grand Hall, Dong Zhuo's fat body sat in the top seat, with strategists and martial generals of the Xiliang Army on the left and right sides.

Among them, Li Ru's figure stood at the head of the strategist team on the left, and the person at the head of the right side.

Seven feet tall, with a thin waist and broad shoulders, double shoulders embraced, face like powdered powder, sword eyebrows merged into the sky, inserting into the temples, a pair of handsome eyes clearly defined, nose like a jade pillar, mouth like cinnabar, big ears facing the bosom.

Wearing a purple-gold crown with hair tied, wearing a hundred-flower robe, wearing tiger-head armor, waist tied with a delicate belt, stepping on flowing cloud battle boots, sword hanging under the ribs.

Standing there, he was majestic and high-spirited, looking around with tiger eyes. This person was Dong Zhuo's foster son, the number one warrior of the Three Kingdoms, Wen Hou Lü Bu.

Following behind were Xiliang Army's Hua Xiong, Li Jue, Guo Si, and other Xiliang Army generals.

"Good son-in-law, is everything ready for the abdication ceremony in a while?"

Dong Zhuo, sitting in the top seat, opened his mouth to ask Li Ru. Seeing Dong Zhuo speak, everyone in the Grand Hall looked at Li Ru.

"Reporting to Father-in-law, the ceremony in a while has been completely prepared by this son-in-law. That young emperor has already agreed to write the abdication edict and announce his abdication in court. At that time, Father-in-law's plan to replace the Han will be more than half completed."

Li Ru stepped out, bent over, clasped his fists, and saluted, looking respectful.

"Hahaha, good, good, good! If this matter succeeds, son-in-law will take the first merit!"

"As long as I, the Prime Minister, succeed in replacing the Han and unify the world, you will take the first merit. At that time, after I, the Prime Minister, pass away in a hundred years, this imperial throne will still have to be inherited by you."

Dong Zhuo laughed wildly, his fat face trembling, looking ferocious.

"Father-in-law is joking. Wenyou dare not take the credit; it really shames this son-in-law."

Li Ru hurriedly stood up and saluted, looking panicked. Dong Zhuo was just drawing a big cake for him, and he couldn't really take it seriously.

Although he knew that Dong Zhuo had no sons, and the imperial throne would likely be his, he still had to have the appearance he should have, and he must not show it.

"Alright, son-in-law, don't be humble. By the way, the young emperor's side is ready, what about that Chen Liu Wang? You must not let him affect our family's big event!"

Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice.

"Please rest assured, Father-in-law. That kid Chen Liu Wang, Liu Xie, don't look at his young age and his appearance of protecting the emperor, but in his heart, he has long wanted to sit on the imperial throne himself. He probably has had enough of being Chen Liu Wang, and he wishes his emperor brother would die sooner!"

Li Ru said with a sneer.

"That's good, but don't take this Liu Xie lightly. This kid has more thoughts than the young emperor." Dong Zhuo said in a deep voice.

"Yes, son-in-law understands. Although that Liu Xie has ambition, he is only at the age of weak crown and has no supporters. Plus our control, Father-in-law doesn't need to worry about him getting out of our control."

Li Ru said confidently.

"Alright, everyone act according to the plan. After our family succeeds, we will never forget everyone's credit. Everyone just wait to be ministers of the dragon, seal wives and shade sons, advance in rank and add officials, seal marquis and worship generals is today. Our family relies on everyone."

"Willing to die for Your Majesty!!!" Everyone stood up, clasped their fists, and saluted, saying loudly.

"Hahaha, good, good, good!!! Then our family relies on everyone's help."

Dong Zhuo laughed, his fat face trembling, and he was quite satisfied with everyone's response.

"Father-in-law, the time for court is almost here, we should set off." Li Ru reminded Dong Zhuo in the top seat.

"Son-in-law is right. Today's court meeting is very critical and cannot have any mistakes. Then everyone prepare to go to the Imperial Palace together. I presume our Emperor Majesty is probably still panicked and uneasy right now! Let's help him get out of it early, hahaha..."

Dong Zhuo said to everyone arrogantly, then strode out, and everyone behind him swarmed to follow Dong Zhuo out.

Luoyang, outside the Imperial Palace court meeting hall. At this time, the ministers attending the court were walking in groups of three or five.

Before long, quite a few people gathered in front of the Grand Hall, among whom the people around Situ Wang Yun and Grand Commandant Yuan Kui were the most numerous.

"Ministers, at today's court meeting, that thief Dong Zhuo will definitely be unfavorable to His Majesty. What should we do then! Are we just going to watch His Majesty be murdered by chaotic ministers and thieves?" Situ Wang Yun said painfully.

"Yes, Situ is right. What should we do..."

The ministers were immediately filled with fear. If Dong Zhuo took action against the emperor, their future days would not be easy either.

Relying on the Xiliang Army's style, they were so arrogant now. Since the Xiliang Army entered Luoyang, the common people in the city had been harmed by them, and quite a few small aristocratic families had been purged.

If Dong Zhuo murdered the emperor and wanted to go further, relying on these people, they simply had no strength to stop it. At that time, life and death would be controlled, and there would be no way.

"Alright, everyone, don't worry. After we go in, no matter what happens, Yuan and I will take the lead, and you just support us. We cannot let the Great Han's four-hundred-year foundation be destroyed in our hands; otherwise, how will we face the ancestors of the Great Han?"

Situ Wang Yun said in a deep voice.
