Chapter 829: I Will Announce My True Identity
With that, the strongest Immortal Monument in the cultivation world was personally buried by Qi Huang. Coupled with her previous feat of slaughtering immortals, her achievements today were unparalleled not only in the cultivation world but likely in countless worlds as well. Qi Huang looked around, and wherever her gaze landed, onlookers lowered their brows and submitted. The heavens and earth were filled only with the wails of the Cao family.
“It seems my idea was correct. As long as the Cao family is suppressed, there will be no obstacles in the cultivation world.”
Qi Huang smiled in satisfaction, then loudly warned again, “I’ll say it again, as long as I, the Alliance Leader, am here, Immortal forces are not allowed to use Immortal Monuments to forcibly take civilian women. If I find one, I will uproot it. Understand?”
“Yes, yes, yes… Understood… Understood.”
The surviving Immortal forces, who still had Immortal Monuments, responded with subservient bows.
After delivering her warning, Qi Huang turned to reunite with her friends and relatives.
“My goodness! There are only nine Immortal Monuments in the cultivation world, and now she’s removed four of them. It’s as simple as pulling radishes!”
“What are Immortal Monuments? Even more terrifying is that she actually killed immortals! With such formidable strength, who in the cultivation world would dare to oppose the Dao Alliance from now on?”
“Why oppose the Dao Alliance? What Alliance Leader Qi has done is far better than those hypocrites in the Immortal Alliance. I am willing to follow her lead.”
…
The onlookers offered their enthusiastic evaluations one after another.
Qi Huang had too many matters to attend to and didn’t want to linger. She led her friends and relatives back.
“The obstacles in the cultivation world have all been cleared. What are your plans next?” Cheng Hong Ling asked via thought transmission.
“Although the obstacles in the cultivation world have been cleared, the Heavenly Dao still hangs over me like a blade. Therefore, I must continue growing vegetables to improve my cultivation.” Qi Huang replied without hesitation.
“Didn’t you say you were going to the universe to find Ghost Tomatoes and Assimilation Power?” Cheng Hong Ling reminded her.
“But I have to improve my cultivation first. Have you noticed that although my current strength is indeed invincible in the cultivation world, my speed is still too slow for traveling in the universe? This will affect the efficiency of my search for Ghost Tomatoes and Assimilation Power.” Qi Huang explained in detail.
The speed of traveling from one star to another took half a day, which was really too slow. Cheng Hong Ling also realized this.
“Yes, so I plan to travel with you after my spiritual sense reaches the level of a Master-level immortal.” Qi Huang revealed her plan.
“Are you really planning to take me? Aren’t you afraid I’ll drag you down?” Cheng Hong Ling asked cautiously.
“I’m more afraid of being cuckolded.” Qi Huang stated frankly.
“Are you implying that I’m promiscuous?” Cheng Hong Ling asked with an unfriendly tone.
“I mean you’re too charming, and I’m not at ease.” Qi Huang quickly remedied.
“Heh heh…” Cheng Hong Ling, rarely, burst into laughter, then said contentedly, “Since that’s the case, I’ll also mobilize the entire Dao Alliance to help you grow vegetables.”
“Hmm, this is also one of the purposes for establishing the Dao Alliance. However, you must remind them of a few points: First, safety measures must be in place; Second, sufficient antidotes must be prepared; Third, Ghost Tomatoes absolutely cannot leak into the secular world.” Qi Huang instructed after a moment’s thought.
“I’ll remind them? What about you? Your prestige is even higher than mine now,” Cheng Hong Ling asked subconsciously.
“Me? Of course, I’ll grow vegetables too. However, you rally the living to grow them, and I’ll rally the dead. I need to try to get some zombies, skeletons, and the like from Lishui Star to the Yin Star to serve as labor. This can also indirectly reduce the evil spirits on the Cultivation Continent.” Qi Huang planned while stroking her chin.
“The plan is indeed quite good, but I must remind you that the Yin Star is, after all, a no-man’s-land. Once there are too many evil spirits, conflicts are bound to erupt. At that time, they will all be your flesh and blood. Whom will you help?” Cheng Hong Ling expressed with some worry.
“You’re right, the Yin Star indeed needs a complete management system to be established in advance to avoid future chaos.” Qi Huang replied thoughtfully.
Qi Huang and Cheng Hong Ling returned to the Hong Hua Sect and then began their respective actions. Cheng Hong Ling summoned the high-level figures of the Dao Alliance and ordered them to lead the Dao Alliance branches and sub-halls across the cultivation continent to plant Ghost Tomatoes.
“Why is the Alliance Leader planting Ghost Tomatoes?” Elder Kang asked confusedly.
“Just do as you’re told, don’t ask so many questions!” Cheng Hong Ling said impatiently.
“Alliance Leader, please forgive my subordinate for speaking out of turn. After all, this thing is a poisonous substance. Once the news spreads, it might damage the reputation of our Dao Alliance.” Elder Kang cautiously reminded her.
“The reason I asked you to plant Ghost Tomatoes is to research special medicines, understand?” Cheng Hong Ling had already thought of a reason.
“So that’s how it is. Then there’s no problem.” Elder Kang breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t want to lose the livelihood he had finally found.
At this time, Qi Huang had already arrived at the Yin Star with several storage rings filled with pigs, chickens, cattle, and sheep. These were for the evil spirits. Before they could raise livestocks, she couldn’t force them to be vegetarians. After arriving at the Yin Star, Qi Huang handed the rations to Zhen Feiyan and Jiang Feng, then convened dozens of powerful evil spirits for a meeting.
“You have all worked hard during this period. The Yin Star has undergone such significant changes, and you have made immense contributions.” Qi Huang first affirmed the evil spirits’ labor results.
“It’s not hard! It’s not hard!” Jiang Feng repeatedly waved his hands, then excitedly said, “Granddaughter, do you know how fulfilling it is to personally turn a desert into an oasis? I have deeply fallen in love with this work.”
“Your Highness the Crown Prince is absolutely right. At the current pace, it will only take a few years for the Yin Star to be able to raise livestocks, and then you won’t have to deliver food back and forth for us anymore.” General Li, the Silver Corpse, agreed.
Qi Huang looked around and found that all the evil spirits had expressions of satisfaction. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, which proved that her efforts were worthwhile.
“Everyone, a few years is still too long. I plan to bring a large number of evil spirits from Lishui Star to help you transform this place.” Qi Huang got to the point.
“Okay, many hands make light work!” Jiang Feng immediately expressed his support.
Zhen Feiyan’s eyebrows, however, slightly knitted. She was meticulous and naturally understood the tricky aspects. Thus, she said, “Sister Qi Huang, if you’ll forgive my bluntness, the reason we can coexist harmoniously now is firstly because we are all acquaintances, and secondly, it’s out of respect for you. If we introduce more powerful and unfamiliar evil spirits, who will they obey? If you don’t obey me and I don’t obey you, conflicts will inevitably arise over time.”
“Sister Zhen is absolutely right, and this is also my only concern. Therefore, I plan to propose a simple system to manage the Yin Star.” Qi Huang took the opportunity to add, then took out a map of the Yin Star she had made. “I will divide the Yin Star into dozens of roughly equal plots of land, each representing a country. After I bring those evil spirits, I will let them choose a country to reside in. At that time, you will be like people in the secular world, transforming your own jurisdictions on a country-by-country basis. You don’t offend me, and I don’t offend you. This will prevent conflicts arising from the struggle for power.”
“Okay, I, as an ancestor, fully support you.” Jiang Feng agreed without hesitation, likely without even thinking it through.
“Each governing themselves individually is indeed a good method. However, low-level evil spirits do not have much intelligence, so there will inevitably be friction between each country. Therefore, a powerful person or organization is needed to maintain the order of the entire Yin Star.” Zhen Feiyan offered her suggestion.
“Don’t worry, the Yin Star also falls under the jurisdiction of the Dao Alliance. I can act as the one to maintain order. I will leave a clone here to oversee it.” Qi Huang stated assertively.
“Then there’s no problem.” Zhen Feiyan was completely relieved.
“Since that is the case, let’s start with you. Who is willing to go out and establish their own territory?” Qi Huang asked decisively.
Zhen Feiyan’s and Jiang Feng’s faces showed hesitation. After all, they had all contributed too much to the oasis under their feet, and no one wanted to give up the hard-earned fruits of their labor.
“I’ll go. Since we’re family,” Jiang Feng finally spoke first.
“Very good. Indeed, a worthy Crown Prince.” Qi Huang praised him, then pointed to the largest piece of land on the map and said, “This largest piece of land will be yours, as a reward for your efforts during this time.”
“Haha, that’s great. As expected of my own granddaughter.” Jiang Feng was overjoyed. As the former Crown Prince, he naturally attached great importance to the size of the territory. Zhen Feiyan, although envious, had no objections, as she was also benefiting from it.
With a thought from Qi Huang, her heroic soul, Huang Ying, appeared before her.
“I entrust the maintenance of order on the Yin Star to you from now on.” Qi Huang pleaded.
“Don’t worry, Elder Sister!” Huang Ying respectfully accepted the order. With her peak Heavenly Punishment Realm spiritual sense, maintaining order on the Yin Star was achievable.
Qi Huang did not waste any time and immediately transported Jiang Feng and other evil spirits to the largest piece of land.
“I, this Crown Prince, declare that from this day forward, this place shall be called Daqi Kingdom.” Jiang Feng excitedly announced as he looked at the vast land.
“Your Highness the Crown Prince, I never expected that we would revive our kingdom here, and it’s countless times larger than the former Daqi Kingdom.” General Li beside him said with tears in his eyes. The other evil spirits of Daqi Kingdom also had red eyes, although their eyes were already naturally red.
“It’s just a pity that only we are left now.” Jiang Feng then lamented.
Seeing this scene, Qi Huang’s heart was filled with mixed emotions.
“Granddaughter, your ancestor has something to ask of you.” Jiang Feng suddenly turned back and said.
“Just say it. As long as I can do it,” Qi Huang replied without hesitation. Since she married Cheng Hong Ling, Jiang Feng was indeed her legitimate ancestor.
“Now, although my Daqi Kingdom is vast, I only have a few hundred people under my command, making it impossible to govern. Could you bring some low-level evil spirits from Lishui Star for me?” Jiang Feng pleaded.
“No problem. This is what I was going to do anyway. You can pick them yourself then.” Qi Huang readily agreed.
After settling everything, Qi Huang returned to Lishui Star. She had intended to deal with the evil spirits of the entire cultivation continent immediately. Unexpectedly, an incident occurred. At some point, rumors began to spread throughout the streets and alleys of the cultivation world, saying that she not only had three souls and seven vital souls but also a male soul. The matter grew larger and larger, soon becoming common knowledge.
“What do you plan to do?” Cheng Hong Ling asked curiously.
“I plan to announce my true identity and give you a real wedding.” Qi Huang said with a determined expression. She had been hiding for too long. It was time to be herself openly.
