Chapter 744: Establishing the Imperial Court!
"What? The legendary Demon Lord and Dugu Baitian are actually still alive, and they have banished all the powerful figures from various myths and legends to the Third Realm?"
"Yin Qi is actually calling himself the Human Emperor and wants to establish an Imperial Court?"
"According to what Yin Qi said, the destruction of the world is imminent, and only those at the Heavenly Tier can protect themselves. So what are we supposed to do?"
"Heavens, there is actually Ninth Order divine liquid and Pill that can help people achieve the status of God Emperor!"
"Join the Imperial Court, we must join."
……
As the powerful figures from all sides returned, the Heavenly Realm and the Human Realm were completely in an uproar.
Regarding joining the Imperial Court, the vast majority of people expressed their support.
Of course, there were also those who opposed it.
It is just that this opposition could only be kept in their hearts and thought about.
This is, after all, a world of cultivation where the strong are respected.
If Yin Qi were only powerful to a limited extent, for instance, if he were merely a God Emperor, people might still have wanted to put up a fight.
But since the other party possesses the combat power of the Against Heaven Realm, what is the point of resisting?
Are they looking for death!
Even the most unruly person, even the person who is not afraid of death, would not think of seeking death.
……
Chu Capital.
Imperial Palace.
Hearing the words of Chu Laoguai, the Chu Emperor could only let out a deep sigh.
Who could have imagined that the talented person from the Qishi Mansion back then would grow into the only emperor of the Heavenly Realm and the Human Realm today.
The key is that they had even schemed against him.
From here on, the Chu Kingdom no longer has the possibility of existing; they must completely eliminate the rift with Yin Qi to avoid being targeted, and they must even try to latch onto Yin Qi as their backer.
Since Yin Qi is the emperor of the Heavenly Realm and the Human Realm, it wouldn't be too much for him to find a way to obtain a marquis title, right!
Thinking of this, he looked at Chu Laoguai and said, "Profound Ancestor, I intend to send both Yue'er and Yu'er to the Imperial Capital. What do you think?"
As he finished speaking, he also looked at Chu Yue and Chu Yu.
The current Chu Yu is already twenty years old, in the prime of her youth, and is known alongside Chu Yue as the Twin Pearls of the Chu Kingdom.
In terms of appearance alone, they could rank near the top across the entire continent.
Since Yin Qi wants to establish an Imperial Court and rule the Heavenly Realm and the Human Realm in the form of a country, he will certainly have to establish a harem in the future.
Chu Laoguai nodded: "That is acceptable."
Chu Yue was not shy; instead, her beautiful eyes brightened slightly, and she nodded, saying: "This daughter has no objections."
"Alright then."
Chu Yu pursed her lips.
Her heart was very conflicted; on one hand, she admired Yin Qi, but on the other, she disliked this method.
But for the sake of the Chu family, she naturally had no objections either.
"Good."
The Chu Emperor said: "At that time, we shall use the Houyi Bow as the dowry for you two sisters."
………
In fact, it is not just the Chu Emperor; the major empires of the Heavenly Realm and the Human Realm, and even various forces, are all harboring the same idea.
Thus, they have been holding beauty pageants one after another, wanting to send their own people into Yin Qi's harem.
As long as they can latch onto Yin Qi as their backer, they will be prosperous in the future.
Perhaps they might even be able to obtain Ninth Order divine liquid, or perhaps a Ninth Order Divine Pill, to achieve the status of God Emperor.
……
Chen Family Moon.
The Fourth Ancestor and Fifth Ancestor summoned the Sixth Ancestor, Seventh Ancestor, Eighth Ancestor, and other high-level members of the Chen family to discuss matters.
These high-level members were basically all God Emperors.
The topics of the meeting were: first, the hidden truth about the resurrection of Chen Zu that Yin Qi spoke of; second, how to treat Chen Nan; and third, how to deal with the Imperial Court.
Regarding the hidden truth of the resurrection of Chen Zu, they finally reached a unanimous decision to investigate it secretly.
As for Chen Nan, he would enjoy the treatment of the Tenth Person of the Chen family and continue to serve as the Tenth Person in the future.
No matter what, the plan to resurrect the distant ancestor has reached this point, and they have sacrificed too much to possibly give up.
As for the Imperial Court, they were very troubled.
If it were in the past, they naturally would not fear Yin Qi.
But the Fourth Ancestor and Fifth Ancestor have both turned into children, and the Chen family no longer has anyone at the Heavenly Tier; how could they block Yin Qi's conquest?
In the end, the Fourth Ancestor made the final decision: "My Chen family has an Inheritance spanning over ten thousand years; it is absolutely impossible to submit to the Imperial Court, but we should also not have a direct conflict with the Imperial Court.
Let's do this: for the Imperial Court's founding ceremony in a month, we will prepare generous gifts to offer our congratulations, and let Chen Nan lead the delegation.
He has a very good relationship with Yin Qi, so just say that my Chen family is willing to pay annual tributes."
Paying tribute is humiliating, but it is better than being wiped out by Yin Qi.
With Yin Qi's current combat power, even if Chen Zu were resurrected, it is not certain that he could do anything to the other party.
……
Inner Heaven and Earth. Yin Qi, wearing the Human Emperor Armor, used his supreme power to melt the Perfect World into his own Inner Heaven and Earth.
Although, it could be said that his own Inner Heaven and Earth also belongs to the Perfect World.
However, there are gaps between Perfect Worlds, and his own Inner Heaven and Earth has only just taken shape; regardless of its foundation or maturity, it cannot be compared to a Perfect World.
This requires the sedimentation of time.
As the Perfect World was smelted into the Inner Heaven and Earth, the Inner Heaven and Earth expanded once again.
The earth became more solid, and countless mineral veins quietly sprouted;
the stars in the sky also became increasingly dense, no different from the real Great World.
……
After refining the Perfect World, Yin Qi began to refine the Imperial Capital of the Imperial Court.
For him, this was nothing more than a piece of cake.
……
Time drifted by, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Please... you.... collect 6... 9... the book....!
The Free City was already overcrowded.
Not only were there representatives from various forces of the Tianren Liangjie, but also a large number of people who had come to watch the excitement.
They gazed at the Imperial Capital in the sky, exclaiming in wonder.
The Imperial Capital was vast, floating in the sky, wreathed in auspicious clouds, with rays of light overflowing, resembling an immortal palace or divine tower, casting a large shadow on the ground and giving people a tremendous sense of oppression.
This was the result of Yin Qi's Artifact Refining this month.
……
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Following three bell tolls, Yin Qi's voice came from the Imperial Capital: "All cultivators of the Sixth Tier and above may enter the palace."
"Even those at the Sixth Tier can enter the palace, that's great!"
Many rogue cultivators were extremely excited.
"Let's go!"
Instantly, over a hundred thousand figures soared into the sky and entered the Imperial Capital.
The Imperial Capital was majestic and vast, essentially a huge city.
Under the guidance of the people from Shenfeng Academy, everyone arrived at the main hall of the Imperial Palace, which contained its own space; even with over a hundred thousand people pouring in, it felt very spacious.
Originally, founding a nation required offering sacrifices to Heaven.
But Yin Qi was truly unwilling to offer sacrifices to the Heavenly Dao of the Divine Tomb, so he decided to hold the founding ceremony inside the main hall.
……
One hour later.
With Yin Qi announcing the establishment of the Imperial Court, it signified that the Imperial Court was officially established.
With the establishment of the Imperial Court, the priority was to build the organizational structure and promote officials at all levels; this was familiar territory for Yin Qi, and he basically copied the Yin Shang system.
Following Yin Qi's explanation, everyone also understood the organizational structure of the Imperial Court.
"Appoint Dantai Xuan as Cabinet Chief Assistant."
"Appoint Chu Han as Cabinet Secondary Assistant."
"Appoint Yao Zhen as Grand Academician."
……
"Appoint Yao Qingcang as Chief of Staff of the Military Affairs Department."
"Appoint Cao Tianque as Marshal."
"Appoint the first-generation God of Light as General-in-Chief."
……
"Appoint Qian Long as Hall Master of the Martial Hall."
……
"Appoint Da Mo as Governor of the southern part of the Eastern Continent in the Human Realm."
……
Among Yin Qi's conferments, eight God Emperors were all appointed as Marshals, while other God Kings were either Generals-in-Chief, Governors, or key members of the Cabinet and Martial Hall.
As for choosing Dantai Xuan as Cabinet Chief Assistant, it was because Dantai Xuan possessed outstanding management abilities and had infinite future potential.
As long as there was sufficient time and cultivation resources, she could soon become a Heavenly Tier powerhouse.
A Cabinet Chief Assistant in a cultivation world would not do without absolute martial strength.
In fact, when she heard that she was the Cabinet Chief Assistant, Dantai Xuan was also overjoyed, because according to the Imperial Court's organizational structure, the Cabinet Chief Assistant was one of the four giants.
Since God Emperors and God Kings held important positions, no one had any objections.
As for the Seventh Tier and Sixth Tier, they simply obeyed orders.
After conferring titles upon the officials, Yin Qi also took the opportunity to confer titles upon the concubines of the inner palace; Nalan Ruoshui, Dongfang Fenghuang, Long Wu, Meng Ke'er, Chu Yue, Chu Yu, and Li Ruoshui were all among them.
Except for Dongfang Fenghuang, the other six were all reincarnations of Qijue Tiannv.
Of course, Yin Mu was also included in the conferments.
As the Empress Dowager of the Imperial Court, Yin Mu felt as if she were in a dream.
Who would have thought that she, merely a village woman, could actually enjoy such immense glory. (End of this chapter)
