Whale Falls and Becomes a God

Chapter 49 The Yin-Yang Emperor
Seventeen thousand people may seem like a lot, but when they are dispersed across the vast Jiangdu, it is still a bit stretched!
More importantly, most of them are newly recruited young and strong men, who are ordinary civilians with no skills, combat experience, battlefield experience, etc. They basically panic when they see blood.

There are only more than 40,000 people who can really fight in battles, and they are not as many as the brave, well-equipped, well-trained, and battle-hardened Xiaoguo Army, not to mention the Xiaoguo Guards.

Of course, as time goes by, people gather together, and young and strong people are recruited every moment. The number has been increasing, and the speed is not slow.

After all, with Xiao Ying's insistence, the recruitment was provided with real money, sufficient food and other abundant logistical support, which was the biggest advantage.

On the other hand, the rebel camp is probably having trouble even getting enough food and clothing.

As one side gains strength while the other loses strength, the longer the battle drags on, the better it will be for the Sui Dynasty. However, there are rebel forces outside who could attack the city at any time. This is the dilemma!
……

After getting a general understanding of the situation, Xiao Ying went to where Empress Xiao lived.

After returning yesterday, everything was so busy that the brother and sister had no chance or time to talk alone.

Although Empress Xiao must have known about Xiao Ying's experience, either Dugu Feng, Aunt Tianren Rong, or the spies would report it. However, Xiao Ying still wanted to go there in person for a while. He couldn't let his different status and busy affairs cut off contact and weaken his feelings!
When Xiao Ying arrived at Empress Xiao's residence, it was still bustling with people coming and going.

Xiao Ying was now officially in charge of the Great Sui faction. However, in secret and in name only, Empress Xiao was still the leader, with the other concubines providing their full support, though they rarely showed up in public.

To put it more intuitively, the relationship between the two is similar to that between the emperor and the emperor emeritus. After all, the Sui Dynasty camp did provide great support in the name of Empress Xiao and the Four Concubines, and they were inseparable.

Empress Xiao would also receive much of the information and intelligence reported to Xiao Ying, and in greater detail and quantity.

It will take time to verify how such a weird relationship is maintained and developed. This is a matter between the siblings, and it is not the turn of others to interfere!
When Xiao Ying entered, Empress Xiao was frowning as she examined the jade slips. Aunt Lan, the chief steward, and four maids were at her side. There were also dozens of eunuchs and palace maids in the hall, busy with various matters and processing intelligence information!
"Prince Jingwu is here?" When Empress Xiao saw Xiao Ying, her beautiful eyes lit up. She greeted him jokingly and put down the jade slip in her hand.

"Then... still no courtesy?"

Xiao Ying straightened his body, looked at everyone with a straight face and said.

"..."

Everyone's faces froze and they didn't react for a moment.

As a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, Xiao Ying was well-acquainted with everyone and often visited the empress's residence. At Empress Xiao's suggestion, the tedious formalities and etiquette were omitted a few years ago.

"Greetings..." Those who reacted quickly bowed down and greeted the guest.

"Alright! If there's nothing important, please leave first!"

Xiao Ying was just responding to Empress Xiao's teasing and didn't really want to pay her respects, so he waved his hand to stop her.

Everyone looked at Empress Xiao, and after seeing her glance at Xiao Ying and wave her hand, they tactfully retreated.

In the end, only Empress Xiao, Aunt Lan and four maids were left.

Empress Xiao smiled brightly, clearly delighted, but she also chided him, "Everyone's so busy right now, and everyone else is also racing against time to cultivate. And you still have time to wander around? This doesn't make you a qualified leader!"

"Every profession has its own specialization, and only talents can be used!"

Xiao Ying came to Empress Xiao's side, kneading her soft, boneless shoulders affectionately, and responded casually, then quickly added: "Besides, don't we still have my sister?"

Empress Xiao's body stiffened. Two generations of Sui emperors had been extremely diligent, including Empress Xiao herself. Xiao Ying's ideas were somewhat new. Then she shook her head in understanding, a look of reminiscence on her face, and closed her eyes to enjoy it.

It's normal that his mentality hasn't changed in a short time. Xiao Ying hasn't been this close to him for many years.

The two had been so close since Empress Xiao's adoptive father, Xiao Ji, the Prince of Dongping, passed away. Whenever Empress Xiao felt tired, Xiao Ying would massage her to soothe her. Later, when Empress Xiao entered the Prince of Jin's residence, Xiao Ying rarely did this. And when Yang Guang ascended the throne, it never happened again!
"Now we have to depend on each other again, but my brother has grown up, and it's his turn to protect me!"

As she closed her eyes, reminiscing and enjoying herself, Empress Xiao spoke slowly, as if in a dream. "Thank you for your hard work over the years, sister..." Xiao Ying was not a person who was good at speaking, so she simply sighed from the bottom of her heart.

"It's not hard. It's all worth it to watch my brother Ying grow up and become a towering tree now!" Empress Xiao responded in a cheerful tone.

Xiao Ying said with concern and confidence: "Then sister, please take care of yourself and accompany me to the end of the world, and become immortal together!"

"Arrogant!" Empress Xiao patted her shoulder with her big hand, spitting out a reprimand with both satisfaction and admonition.

Auntie Lan and the other five girls looked at Xiao Ying in surprise. They had never expected Xiao Ying to be so ambitious. From his tone, he seemed to be confident that he could become an immortal?!
This is unprecedented!
Typical case of high expectations and low skills!
"Sister, you'll know once you try it! Are you ready?"

Xiao Ying responded confidently and expectantly.

"What are you preparing for?" Empress Xiao turned around and asked in confusion.

"Star Soul Fusion!"

"Yang Guang!"

Without saying or explaining much, Xiao Ying activated the "Blood Demon Diagram", summoned the star soul of the righteous god Yang Guang, and merged it into Empress Xiao's body.

This is the decision Xiao Ying made after careful consideration!

Empress Xiao was a god-level power, but she primarily cultivated the way of the spirit (the spirit of essence, energy, and spirit), and supplemented it with the way of the spirit, so her body was not strong. However, this shows that Empress Xiao was extremely talented and had extremely high qualifications.

Xiao Ying paid more attention to Empress Xiao's safety, and finally decided to merge Yang Guang's star soul into Empress Xiao. It happened that Yang Guang's three-line cultivation could make up for Empress Xiao's shortcomings, develop comprehensively and maximize her strength.

Both of them are extremely talented, gifted, and have extraordinary qualifications. They are a couple standing at the top of the world.

If two become one, which can be described as the supreme yin and yang coming together, what kind of qualitative change will occur?

Xiao Ying was very excited and curious!
What is even more curious is whether Empress Xiao also chose to take the "Nine Cauldrons Emperor Classic" course.

Considering the background of Empress Xiao and Yang Guang, it is completely suitable, and it can be regarded as inheriting Yang Guang's will. It is also the most promising magical book to transcend and become an immortal!

"what?!"

Aunt Lan and the other five girls were puzzled, but Empress Xiao exclaimed in surprise, and then... nothing happened!

Unlike Xu Sheng and Le Han before, Empress Xiao just closed her eyes and remained silent without any reaction!

Xiao Ying stopped massaging, and Aunt Lan and the other girls watched with bated breath. Aunt Tianrenrong was also watching in secret. It seemed that time stopped and space solidified in an instant.

"Om..."

After a full hundred breaths, Empress Xiao's aura and momentum changed, and stars emerged, surrounding her body, and starlight bloomed!
"Zhou Tian Refining Treasure Book"!
After all, it is recognized as the most powerful body-refining manual. Empress Xiao’s weakest point is body refining, so it is natural for her to practice it!

"As expected... the elective course is 'Nine Cauldrons Human Emperor Code'? It's really hard for those who are interested in the Great Dao to give it up..."

Seeing this, Xiao Ying felt complicated. Emotions such as joy, peace of mind, uneasiness, worry, etc. surged into his heart, and he was also a little bit confused!

The Nine Cauldrons Emperor, just as the name suggests!
