Chapter 1157 Change of Dynasty
The great battle between Lingyun Palace and Tiannan Divine Sword unexpectedly lasted a very, very long time.

With Zhou Daqian's assistance, Lian Feihong swiftly defeated Dongfang Daqian and drove him to a corner of Feiyun Prefecture.

Originally, all eight prefectures in Zhili had submitted to Lian Feihong, but Dongfang Daqian was still formidable, managing to seize one prefecture and put up a stubborn resistance.

Furthermore, the religion of human race is full of talented people, and they threaten to destroy each other with the sacred artifacts.

Left with no other choice, Lian Feihong's side had to stop and confine them to Feiyun Prefecture.

The eight prefectures of Zhili have become the core of the region, playing a flanking role on both the left and right, and firmly containing the vast eastern world.

Both sides are waiting, waiting for the outcome of the great battle.

The ideal outcome would be for Tiannan Divine Sword to win, and for Lingyun Palace to leave with its remaining troops.

If Tiannan Divine Sword loses, Lian Feihong's current advantage gives him the confidence to bargain with the opponent.

Well, besides Feiyun Prefecture, Maijing Prefecture is also a bit strange.

It is inappropriate that the young master has encountered a powerful enemy and the battle is still undecided. All the borders of Jingzhou are sealed off, and a state of full alert is in place.

However, he had already arranged for his trusted subordinates to submit to Lian Feihong and also sent people to help block Dongfang Daqian's escape.

Zhou You paid close attention to the movements in Maijingzhou because he knew there was someone else who cared even more than he did.

The world is focused on the clash between two semi-saints, but they don't know that the battle in Maijingzhou is also related to the future course of events.

Once the two final demonic warriors have decided their victor, the supreme demonic weapon will surely be born to slay the Queen of Enchantress.

Therefore, if anyone cares more about this matter than Zhou You, it is only... the Empress herself.

Although she didn't know what the Queen was planning, she would never sit idly by and let her nemesis arrive; she would definitely come up with some tricks!
"Brother Lian, there's no time to lose, it's time for the enthronement!"

On this day, Zhou You confronted Lian Feihong, or rather, urged him to take the throne.

Lian Feihong was taken aback upon hearing this, "Isn't that too hasty!"

"No rush, the advantage is in our hands, the Eastern Great Thousand is no longer a threat!"

"Seven of the eight prefectures in Zhili are already under its control, and it is supported by three prefectures in the northwest, several prefectures in the southeast, and the southern border regions."

"Having conquered the world to this point, we are now ready to declare ourselves kings and offer sacrifices to Heaven."

According to Zhou You's plan, anyone destined for greatness, once they have accumulated enough experience, can sweep through all obstacles and claim the top spot.

After the battle in Beijing, Lian Feihong's advantage is unmatched, so there's no need to get bogged down in the minutiae.

Historically, no dynasty was ever completely unified at its inception. Instead, each dynasty conquered other states, established its own kingdom, and then unified the country by conquering other vassal states.

Although there are still external enemies, the Martial Arts Monument is hiding overseas, and the Eastern Great Thousand Pattern is Feiyun Prefecture, they are all insignificant.

Once Zhou You expressed his opinion, others followed suit and urged him to go ahead, and the momentum was already established.

Lian Feihong felt a surge of energy in his chest, as if his life's glory had reached its peak, and immediately blurted out, "Good."

He immediately proclaimed to the four directions of the capital that an auspicious day and time had been chosen for him to ascend the throne as a feudal lord at the sacrificial palace.

After the news broke, the core members of the camp were naturally happy and supportive, and many tacitly agreed. However, many others angrily denounced and cursed Lian Feihong, saying, "His rise was swift, and so will his fall."

The news spread from the eight prefectures of Zhili to the prefectures in the north and southern Xinjiang...

A new dynasty is about to be established!

Often, a sudden change in the political landscape allows many prominent figures and families to rise to prominence and dominate the world for centuries to come.

Against this backdrop, the name most frequently mentioned is 'Zhou Daqian'.

This person is the 'most outstanding' disciple of the Tiannan Divine Sword Sect. Despite his young age, he is already a powerful figure in the Heavenly Sect, assisting Lian Feihong in defeating his opponents. It's easy to imagine that he will hold a pivotal position by the side of the newly appointed ruler.

The news reached the north...

Zhou Ding, a boy of about ten years old, grabbed Niu Gong's knees and begged, "Grandpa, please pass on the Ge Fa to me!"

"Look at me, I'm already in the late stage of the Strong Martial Realm, but I only practice fist and palm techniques and don't know anything about weapon techniques."

"If word gets out, it will not only embarrass you, but also make my old man lose face."

"Speaking of which, he learned swordsmanship from the Divine Sword of Tiannan and became famous throughout the world. Don't you have any objections, sir?"

In front of Zhou Ding, Zhenbei Ge Niu Gong was like a kind old man. He deliberately put on a stern face and scolded, "Stop making trouble!"

"Weapons are an extension of the hands and feet. Once you are proficient in fist and foot techniques, you will naturally master weapon techniques as if water had flowed into a channel!"

“You are exceptionally talented, unlike ordinary mediocre people, so I have arranged an unusual path for you.”

"Whether it's the Zhenbei Ge or the Tiannan Jianfa, they're only suitable for us old men. If you don't want to waste your talent, you should try to comprehend it yourself and create your own unique weapon technique."

Niu Gong nodded at this point, "Yes, you've hardly seen your parents since you were a child."

"Since this trip to the capital to offer sacrifices to Heaven and bestow titles upon the rulers, the six northern states cannot fail to show their respect. They have sent a group of envoys. You can mingle among them and take this opportunity to meet your parents."

"My grandfather is so good to me!"

Zhou Ding clapped and cheered.

The vast swamp lies outside the Northern Mystic Prefecture.

The Wanli Swamp Sea is now completely different from what it used to be. Since Lu Zhigang's "unexplained death", his adopted daughter Lu Chongsheng, with the help of Lian Zixiu, defeated Chan Juan'er, who was vying for power, and became the new overlord of the Swamp Sea.

The couple worked together to make Wanli Swamp Sea more and more prosperous, even more so than when you were in Poison Taiyue.

However, the outside world's speculations never stopped, and rumors kept circulating that they were the ones who killed Lu Zhigang and seized power.

"Ignore those rumors; they're probably just being spread secretly by Chan Juan'er's remnants!"

Lian Zixiu comforted Lu Chongsheng, "I heard that the Cao family, who are known for their difficulties, have sent people to request an audience again?"

"Ignore them. If they want to make a deal, I won't make things difficult for them, but if they want to talk about anything else, forget it."

Lu Chongsheng's expression was cold, but his gaze softened when it fell on the other person. "I heard that the capital city has undergone a dramatic change. After the previous ruler died suddenly, there has been turmoil and fighting, and the next ruler is now vying for the throne."

"Hmm, I heard the candidate's name is Lian Feihong, and his subordinate Zhou Daqian of the Tianzong Sect is an old friend of his."

Lianzi Xiu paused, then slapped her forehead. "I almost forgot, the two people we enshrine are from the vicinity of Dijing. They must know something about this!"

The two powerful warriors enshrined in the Wanli Swamp Sea are the mountain lord and his disciple who were lost to the northern lands after the destruction of Fulue Mountain.

The mountain lord's situation is special; he dares not contact outsiders. The only difficulty he faces is the vast swamp and sea, which is also fraught with poisonous creatures, making it easy for him to hide.

Therefore, the two of them accepted Lian Zixiu and Lu Chongsheng's invitation to settle down as sect retainers.

It was thanks to the help of these two that the Wanli Swamp Sea was able to remain stable despite the covetousness and siege of many forces.

After Lianzi Xiu and her husband delivered the message, the Lord of Fulu Mountain fell into deep thought, a rare occurrence. "Zhou Daqian? He really is quite a character."

He recounted his past relationship with the other party in detail, which amazed Reiko and the other person.

Born into a prestigious family and serving as a royal guard, he rose rapidly from the Strong Martial Sect to the Heavenly Sect. It is no wonder that such an extraordinary figure could control the world and become the right-hand man of the new emperor.
