Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Five Elements Legion Leaves Fire Army_1

"There's no need to count, we surrender, we're willing to surrender. Please, your Majesty, don't resort to violence!"

His body as though charcoaled, Zhao Kong quickly roared, mustering all his strength!

"I, Zhao Kong, and all of us from Wanxuan Sect, pledge our loyalty to Dawu and surrender to your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"

Rushing to consume a few elixirs to regain a bit of his vitality, Zhao Kong quickly knelt down, submitting to Chu Yuan. Inwardly, he felt extraordinarily bitter, he had no other choice.

He, a formidable expert who had peered into the ninth layer of Divinity, was not a match for Chu Yuan. Even with the Sect's large defensive formation, if the Divine Cannon and that banner capable of incinerating the sky and boiling the sea were to bombard, the entire Sect would be razed to the ground. What else could he do in way resistance? It was better to surrender.

With Zhao Kong's surrender, the other Sect Elders also exchanged glances with each other, then knelt in submission.

"Zhao Kong, you've made a wise choice. I don't mind annihilating the Wanxuan Sect. After all, if I cannot claim a power for my own, its destruction is stronger than its existence."

Chu Yuan waved his hand to withdraw the Divine Cannon and the Blazing Sky Banner.

"Your Majesty, the Wanxuan Sect has a total of fifteen strong practitioners in the Original Spirit Realm, five thousand masters of Divine Abilities, most of which are in the first or second level of Divine Abilities, fifty thousand in the Original Spirit Realm, and five hundred thousand including and below the Forging Soul Realm.

Besides, we control thirty-six cities, with a population of approximately one billion, providing disciples and resources for our Sect."

Zhao Kong honestly revealed the full strength of the Wanxuan Sect.

"There are fifteen expert practitioners in the Original Spirit realm, five thousand with Divine Abilities. However, for a two-star Clan, the number of practitioners in the Original Spirit realm and below is considerably less, and the population is not as much as a one-star dynasty like Lianqian."

Chu Yuan was quite satisfied with the number of experts in the Original Spirit realm and masters of Divine Abilities that the Wanxuan Sect had.

It's just that the population was slightly less compared to dynasties of the same star level.

"Your Majesty, Clans are, after all, different from dynasties. Our mission is to cultivate more high-level experts. Maintaining cities is simply to enlist talents from among the mundane population. Those who are vulgar do not have the qualifications to enter the Clan, unlike dynasties that recruit armies from an endless population. Given the resources of the Clan, we can only train so many disciples.

Any more would just be a burden unless we are promoted to a higher star level."

Zhao Kong proudly said, "If it is a battle between armies, our Wanxuan Sect is naturally not as good as a two-star dynasty of the same rank, but if it is a single combat between powerful warriors, it is definitely difficult to compete with our Sect."

The difference between a Clan and a dynasty was vividly displayed here.

This was the difference between the path of the individual and the path of the masses.

"Alright, I have a basic understanding of your strength. The Wanxuan Sect will henceforth be integrated into Dawu. You can no longer follow the rules of your Clan. I will send someone to implement the laws of Dawu. As for your arrangements...."

Chu Yuan fell silent for a moment, then said, "Although my Dawu is just a two-star dynasty, we will surely develop rapidly in the future. We need to expand our army. I plan to organize five major Military Corps based on the Five Elements. I will start with your Wanxuan Sect and incorporate it into the Fire Army.

You will be the commander of the Wanxuan Army, which will now be named Wanxuan State, and recruit soldiers from within Wanxuan State."

The Five Elements Military Corps will be Chu Yuan's ticket to dominating the Hanging Sky Domain, and possibly even to ruling the Eternal World!

Although the current formation of the Forbidden Army will not be disbanded, he will also let them grow, as they can be used to defend the homeland.

The Five Elements Military Corps will be specifically used for border expansion.

As for the Godlike Martial Army, they are Chu Yuan's private force.

"We will follow your Majesty's instructions!"

Upon hearing Chu Yuan's proposal to appoint him as the commander of the Wanxuan Army, Zhao Kong felt somewhat better. But he couldn't help feeling a bit bitter, as he would no longer be above all like he used to be. "Your Majesty, the Wanxuan Sect still has people at the Lianqian veins. Shall we send people to summon them back immediately?"

"No rush, since I am just visiting your Wanxuan Sect. The Southern Forest Sect is next to visit." Chu Yuan shook his head. "Zhao Kong, accompany me to the Southern Forest Sect."

"To the Southern Forest Sect? Fine, I would be glad to accompany your Majesty to the Southern Forest Sect!"

Upon learning that Chu Yuan was going to the Southern Forest Sect, which was about to undergo the same fate as his Wanxuan Sect, he couldn't help but break into a grin of schadenfreude.

He said, "Wang Lun, after today, there will be no Wanxuan Sect in Dawu any longer. We will have two identities, one as a civilian of Dawu, and the other as a member of the Wanxuan Army. Quickly organize the Sect Elders and let the people of our thirty-six cities know that they are now citizens of Dawu!"

"I understand!"

Wang Lun knew that since he had already pledged allegiance and there was no way to reverse the situation, he must face the reality and work properly.

Swipe!

The empty sky began to spin.

The distance between the Wanxuan Sect and the Southern Forest Sect was not too far, just tens of thousands of miles.

In the past, they wouldn't have split a vein together. After not too long, their figures appeared from the vast sky and touched down in a primitive forest.

If the Wanxuan Sect was marked by towering mountains, then the region where the Southern Forest Sect was situated was marked by towering trees.

"Your Majesty, look, the main gate of the Southern Forest Sect is in the middle of this forest. Most of their cultivation techniques are of the wood attribute. In fact, to talk about strength, the Southern Forest Sect is , several times stronger than my Wanxuan Sect. Our long peace is solely because we both are two-star, and engaging in a battle will be too costly."

Zhao Kong pointed to the place in the middle of the forest where countless palaces were standing, and said honestly.

"There was no trouble in the past, but I'm here now and that's trouble." Chu Yuan said.

"Master of the Southern Forest Sect, His Majesty is here. Aren't you going to hurry up and see His Majesty?"

Zhao Kong roared.

"His Majesty? Which Majesty? It's been a long time since we had visitors at the Southern Forest Sect."

As expected, with Zhao Kong's roar, many figures flickered in the forest. An elder dressed in green appeared in front of them.

This elder had an awe-inspiring aura of ancient wood about him, robust and resilient.

With him at the center, the lush life energy, the entire forest was providing him power. His mana was mysteriously calm and steady, although not at the tenth level of divine abilities, he wasn't far off either.

"So young, you must be the Saint of Dawu." This elder was the Master of the Southern Forest Sect, he said calmly: "Zhao Kong, you're not staying in your own Sect and you've come to my Southern Forest Sect, what an unusual visitor."

"Master of the Southern Forest Sect, it's not me, it's His Majesty who has come here. Not long ago, I decided that the Wanxuan Sect, as a whole, will pledge allegiance to Dawu. I am no longer the Sect Master of the Wanxuan Sect, but the commander of the Fire Army of the Wanxuan Division."

Zhao Kong said with a cold laugh.

"What? You're actually pledging allegiance to a newly promoted two-star dynasty?"

The Master of the Southern Forest Sect was greatly surprised, but he soon regained his calm and said coolly: "This doesn't seem like your style. If I'm not mistaken, Saint of Dawu, you are here today to make my Sect surrender and pledge allegiance to your Dawu. You really have great ambition, having swallowed four countries you now want to swallow my Sect."

"You're very smart." Chu Yuan said.

"The snake that tries to swallow the elephant dies of greed. Beware not to choke yourself to death!"

Some of the elders behind the Master of the Southern Forest Sect, upon learning of Chu Yuan's intentions, first expressed shock then let out disdainful shouts.

"Alright."

The Master of the Southern Forest Sect raised his hand, he then said: "Now that the Saint of Dawu has come to visit, no matter what his intentions are, my Sect can't lose its manners, lest we become the laughingstock of others. If the Saint doesn't mind, why not take a seat in our Sect as a guest of honor? It would be better for everyone to discuss any matters, there is no need for bloodshed."
