Chapter 1469

"By the way, remember—I do not permit internal strife!"

Ximen Wudi said coldly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Upon hearing the voice, Xia Yu quickly spoke up.

Then, he withdrew.

But Ximen Wudi fell into thought.

In his mind, the system's voice kept ringing.

"Ding, congratulations, host, you have completed the hidden quest: Fate War."

You have received a system reward: one Gold Card!"

"Your current strength has risen to Level Six peak!"

"Ding, system quest triggered: defeat Chiyou within three years!"

"And secure victory!"

"Ding, upon completion, you will receive five hundred million merit points and ten Hongmeng Pills!"

"Ding, system quest failed!"

"Boom!"

Just as the voice fell silent.

Ximen Wudi's blood boiled.

In his eyes, fierce killing intent blazed forth.

Then, without hesitation, he spoke.

"Cao Zhengchun, muster the troops!"

Chiyou must be slain.

Otherwise, the Han will be in grave danger.

At that moment, Cao Zhengchun stepped in.

"Your Majesty, all major factions have agreed to submit. Now, every person in the Han has gathered outside the Imperial City!"

Upon hearing this, Ximen Wudi spoke slowly.

"Set out!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Cao Zhengchun bowed deeply.

In his eyes shone excitement.

The Han has finally risen.

The others, too, wore eager expressions.

For these past days, they had endured enough.

The Han today is the true dynasty.

No more hiding and fleeing.

And as the crowd gathered outside the Imperial City, silently awaiting Ximen Wudi's arrival.

Ximen Wudi's figure appeared before them.

It was a vast army.

The Tianhe Navy, Feixiong Cavalry, Black Armor soldiers.

And various ferocious beasts.

Along the way, they radiated thick, deadly aura.

At the very front were Ximen Wudi's Personal Guards.

Beside him walked Cao Zhengchun.

"Pay homage to Your Majesty!"

As they drew near.

Xia Yu and the Juling Clan Chief bowed respectfully.

"From today, the Juling Clan shall lead the Imperial Guard."

The Tianluo Clan Chief shall be deputy commander."

"I will dispatch elite troops to assist you."

"I hope you fulfill your duties faithfully and do not betray me!"

The words carried undeniable authority.

"Your servant obeys!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Yu spoke.

In his eyes blazed excitement.

This was the Han's first time granting him sole command of an army.

"Set out!"

Ximen Wudi said coolly.

Then, the army marched toward the distance.

Meanwhile, in the Divine-Mortal Realm, a subtle change occurred.

The strong of all clans retreated into their own territories.

Because, everyone understood.

What followed, they feared, would be the outbreak of a world-shaking great battle.

Moreover, many people were guessing.

This great Han had no shallow ties with that mysterious Divine Court, or rather, the Divine Realm.

Therefore, how would they dare to slacken in the slightest.

However, just as the great powers were all seething with undercurrents.

Ximen Wudi and his party had already traversed an infinite distance and arrived deep within the Great Wasteland.

At this moment, he stood atop the dragon carriage, a wisp of cold light flickering in his eyes.

At this moment, his heart was somewhat solemn.

Although his strength had now surged dramatically.

When facing the Divine Realm, he was still far too weak.

However, the one thing worth rejoicing over was that the system's reward had given him hope.

This time, after his realm broke through six levels.

His strength was now pressing close to the first tier of Divine Lord.

If combined with the system's energy, he could even match a half-step Divine King.

With things like this, what was there still to fear from anyone.

"Your Majesty, we have arrived!"

And just as Ximen Wudi was lost in random thoughts, Cao Zhengchun spoke up once again.

Then, pointing ahead, he began to speak.

Only now did Ximen Wudi notice that his group had actually arrived outside a city.

And upon the city wall, several large characters were prominently written.

"North Wasteland City!"

This was a famous great city within the Great Wasteland; among the four directions, aside from those few top-tier kings and marquises, its strength ranked foremost.

Not only because the North Wasteland King's strength was formidable.

More importantly, it was said that a Divine King had once fallen within this North Wasteland City.

And a fourth-tier Divine King at that.

Therefore, even within the Divine Realm, it possessed a considerable reputation.
