Chapter 288 Assigning duties to his harem

Chapter 288  Assigning duties to his harem

Gathered within the intimate enclave of his harem, Wang Jian addressed his beloved consorts with a solemn tone that resonated with the gravity of the situation.

"Ladies," he began, his voice commanding attention, "our dominion is facing a rising storm. The other races have stirred, and their intentions are palpable. We must fortify our empire swiftly, for the challenges ahead are formidable."

Amidst his harem, Su Xian, the Empress, and Wang Jian's first wife, nodded in resolute agreement. "You speak the truth, Jian," she affirmed, her regal presence underscoring her words. "Our efforts against the barbarians have been valiant, but mere defense won't suffice in the long run. As they ravage other empires, we're granted a brief reprieve, but it's imperative that we bolster our strength before they turn their gaze upon us."

Fen Shuying chimed in thoughtfully, her voice carrying the weight of strategic insight. "Indeed, Jian, we must harness the power of our sects to the fullest. Their autonomy, while beneficial, should be directed towards the common goal of defending our empire. Their combined influence can be our sword and shield against these encroachments."

Acknowledging her perspective, Wang Jian pondered for a moment before responding, "You're both right. Strengthening our core forces and consolidating our sects' efforts is essential. However, we can't focus solely on this front. We must anticipate the possibility of threats from multiple directions. Thus, we need to cultivate an additional potent force."

Su Xian met his gaze, a determined glint in her eyes. "Leave that to me, Jian. I will oversee the development of this force personally, ensuring it stands as a formidable deterrent."

Xu Yuting, the voice of sagacity, interjected. "And as for the Dao of Alchemy Society, I'll take it upon myself to maximize the potential of the resources and alchemical knowledge you've procured. Our alchemists will refine their skills, producing elixirs and artifacts of unparalleled might."

Meng Xiangyi, with her unwavering resolve, contributed to the discussion. "The League of Blacksmiths will play its role, crafting an arsenal that befits our needs. Our skilled artisans shall forge a variety of weapons and armors, imbuing them with the strength and artistry that our empire demands."

With an appreciative smile, Wang Jian turned his attention towards Chen Yiyan, addressing her with a sense of purpose. "Yiyan, I'm entrusting you with a pivotal task. Your charge is to oversee the vassal kingdoms allied with our Empire. It's crucial that you ensure their unity with us, fostering a strong support system against the looming threats. Should any vassal kingdoms show signs of rebellion or discord, I rely on you to bring it to my attention."

Chen Yiyan's smile exuded confidence as she accepted the responsibility. "Rest assured, Jian. I'll be vigilant and steadfast in my role. You can count on me to maintain the unity of our extended alliance."

Shifting his gaze towards Stella, Wang Jian addressed her with a mix of earnestness and understanding. "Stella, the beasts that inhabit our empire hold their allegiance to you alone. I recognize your reluctance to put your comrades in harm's way, but the impending challenges necessitate preparation. If the other races pose a threat to our dominion, we must be ready to defend it."

Stella's response was marked by her characteristic assurance. "Fear not, Jian. Your intentions resonate deeply with mine, and I'm confident my comrades share this sentiment. They'll be ready to stand against any adversary that dares to challenge our empire."

Touched by their commitment, Wang Jian expressed his gratitude sincerely. "Thank you."

Turning his gaze to Hong Meilin, he conveyed his next directive with purpose. "Meilin, I have a vital mission for you and Xifeng. It's imperative that both of you work together to ensure that the general populace maintains their faith in us. The bond between our empire and its people must remain unbreakable."

Hong Meilin's response was filled with unwavering devotion. "Absolutely, husband. Xifeng and I will exert every effort to uphold the connection between our empire and its people. Their loyalty and trust shall remain unshaken."

Turning his attention to Kang Huian, Wang Jian conveyed his next set of instructions with a determined gaze. "Kang Huian, I'm entrusting you with a crucial role. Prepare your subordinates and clan members for the impending battle against the barbarians. You'll serve as our empire's second line of defense. I want those barbarians to be taken aback by the sheer force they encounter. Dominate the battlefield with your unmatched raw strength."

Kang Huian's response resonated with confidence and determination. "You can count on us, husband! My clan takes great pride in our unparalleled strength. We won't yield to any other race in this aspect."

Having delegated these tasks, Wang Jian dismissed his harem members, knowing that they would now put their respective plans into motion.

Once his harem members were gone, Wang Jian instructed his maids to summon Mei Yan, Lady Xia, Lady Zhuoran, Luo Qiu (the former Second Queen of the Empire), and Yao Niu (the former Empress of the Empire).

These five women could all be considered in the category of MILFs who shared a very intimate and seductive relationship with Wang Jian.

Wang Jian had a strategic purpose behind gathering these women.

He began by addressing Lady Xia, issuing her a directive. "Lady Xia, it's time to reinstate the Elysian Blossoms Organization. Start marketing the products you've developed in collaboration with the Miracle Angel Tribe. Ensure that influential women from the Empire align with our cause."

Acknowledging her task, Lady Xia responded with determination. "I've been anticipating this order, my dear."

Next, Wang Jian turned his attention to Lady Zhuoran. "Your task is straightforward. Collaborate with the Liu Clan to develop talismans capable of creating illusions, detecting illusions, and breaking illusions."

Lady Zhuoran concisely accepted her assignment. "Understood."

Mei Yan was the next on Wang Jian's list. "Mei Yan, I want you to assist Fen Shuying in unifying the sects. Ensure that they follow the court's commands."

Mei Yan affirmed her role. "I'll put forth my best effort."

Lastly, Wang Jian focused on Luo Qiu and Yao Niu, addressing them together. "Luo Qiu and Yao Niu, your mission is to maintain the clans' adherence to the court's orders. Deal with any clan that displays rebellious behavior. You both still wield enough influence among your followers to accomplish this, correct?"

Both Luo Qiu and Yao Niu responded in unison. "Yes, Emperor Jian."

With the meeting's official tasks concluded, Wang Jian's tone shifted playfully. "Well, now that business is over, let's have some fun."

Lady Xia, Lady Zhuoran, and Mei Yan mirrored his playful expression, beginning to disrobe with a sense of excitement.

In contrast, Luo Qiu and Yao Niu displayed a mixture of discomfort and embarrassment, yet they reluctantly followed suit.

Within Wang Jian's chamber, a passionate and intimate encounter unfolded between him and these five women. Desires were indulged, and the room echoed with the fervor of their actions.

As events continued to unfold within the Everlasting Mystical Empire, the northern front where Jiang Chen's forces were making their advance faced an intense counterattack from both the formidable Heavenly Court's experts and the powerful individuals of the Angelic Sky City.

While Jiang Chen had braced himself for the challenge posed by the Heavenly Court's experts, the appearance of these Angels from the Angelic Sky City, possessing unparalleled power and unique abilities, caught him off guard. Ultimately, he was compelled to withdraw, retreating back to the sanctuary of the Silver Devil Asura Dominion.

This encounter taught Jiang Chen a valuable lesson: conquering the continent in the current era was not a simple endeavor. He realized the necessity to enhance his own abilities and prepare for confrontations with all races before launching a definitive assault on the entire realm.

To ascend to the zenith of his power, Jiang Chen required exceedingly rare resources. The constraints of the seals that bound him necessitated significant resources along with specific treasures and weapons to undo their effects.

A total of seven restraints afflicted Jiang Chen, each demanding a corresponding treasure to unlock. These treasures were held by the seven powerful races of the continent: Dwarves, Barbarians, Giants, Angels, Elves, Sea Monsters, and Humans.

Realizing that obtaining these treasures through diplomatic means was unlikely, Jiang Chen had no choice but to obtain them forcefully. However, he recognized that he couldn't achieve this feat alone, particularly when it came to seizing the treasure from the humans. Thus, he formulated a strategy to build an army capable of supporting his objectives.

Yet again, this endeavor required rare and unique resources, which led Jiang Chen to strategically target the other races, aiming to secure the necessary resources for his cause.

Setting his plan into motion, Jiang Chen swiftly issued orders to the devils of the Silver Devil Asura Dominion, demanding a comprehensive dossier detailing the diverse races and the vast expanse of the continent.

The devils worked tirelessly for an entire month, ceaselessly amassing the wealth of information Jiang Chen sought. Their efforts culminated in the presentation of their findings before him.

Jiang Chen meticulously absorbed each shard of the compiled data, delving deep into the intricate tapestry of the continent's geography and its inhabitants.

This immersive exploration provided him with an intimate understanding of the unique traits and territories of each race.

Yet, the shrouds of mystery remained untouched for two races. The devils' investigations had yet to uncover the dominions of the enigmatic elven race and the elusive Sea Monsters. These two dominions continued to elude their most comprehensive efforts.

The remaining dominions, however, were laid bare to Jiang Chen's scrutiny.

He absorbed the intricacies of their locations and the specific attributes of their territories. Yet, his immersion in these details didn't stop at the dominions alone; it extended to encompass the intricate web of Human Empires that punctuated the continent.

One revelation that struck him was the existence of a hybrid Empire, an intriguing blend of different races ruled by a legacy inheritor of the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan.
