My Apprenticeship to Uncle Jiu: I Was a Warlord in the Republic of China

He thought this wouldn't do. If it continued like this in the future, how could they continue to work? They wouldn't even be able to report their work in person!

So he racked his brains for a while, and then an idea suddenly came to him.

Then he held the sword with both hands and pestled it on the ground, and then solemnly said to the people on the ground: "I, Jiang Li, as the actual controller of the three provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi and Hunan, appoint Xie Changfeng as the director of the Supernatural Bureau to help me manage the Supernatural Bureau and handle all extraordinary events in the country on my behalf!"

"Xie Changfeng, are you willing?"

Xie Changfeng was still a little confused when he heard this, but after thinking for a while, he tried his best to squeeze out three words from his mouth, "I do!"

Just after he said this, he felt the oppressive feeling on his body disappear instantly. Then he stood up in doubt and looked at Jiang Li with a frown.

Jiang Li ignored him. After seeing that this method was indeed useful, he questioned several people one by one and rewarded them again. However, this time they were no longer the director of the Supernatural Bureau, but just team leaders.

In addition to this, he was also given the identity of an ordinary member of the Supernatural Bureau, but after he accepted it, the pressure disappeared and he stood up.

After the eight people stood up, they all looked at the bronze sword in Jiang Li's hand with surprise. Xie Changfeng even said excitedly, "Commander Si...is that really the Xuanyuan Sword in your hand?"

Jiang Li smiled and nodded when he heard this, "This is indeed the Xuanyuan Sword, the sacred weapon of China!"

Xie Changfeng was immediately overjoyed when he received Jiang Li's affirmative answer. "I used to think that the Xuanyuan Sword only existed in legends!"

"I never expected it, I never expected it to actually exist!"

Then he changed the subject, "So, Commander, you have already been recognized by Xuanyuan Sword, so you are the true emperor of the world, right?"

Jiang Li nodded first, then shook his head.

Seeing Jiang Li nodding and shaking his head, everyone at the scene was stunned.

However, Jiang Li immediately explained, "I have indeed been recognized by Xuanyuan Sword, but now I only have three provinces, and I can't be called the Son of Heaven!"

Then he picked up the Xuanyuan Sword and showed them the eight characters on the hilt. "Do you recognize these characters?"

Several people looked at it with confusion on their faces. This writing was even more ancient than seal characters. How could they, modern practitioners who were devoted to cultivation, possibly recognize it?

"I didn't recognize it at first, but after the Xuanyuan Sword recognized its master, I recognized it. This is a bronze script between oracle bone script and seal script, and these eight characters are written as."

"The Emperor has come to this world, and the world will be united!"

After hearing Jiang Li's words, they immediately looked at Jiang Li with confusion on their faces. A Maoshan Taoist priest couldn't help but ask directly: "Excuse me, Commander, does this Human Emperor mean the emperor of the human race?"

When Jiang Li heard that they didn't even know what the Human Emperor was, he felt very curious. He didn't know whether it was because they were uneducated or the sect had never made it public.

After all, the words "Human Emperor" are recorded on the Xuanyuan Sword, which means that the Human Emperor existed in ancient times.

Then, he explained to the others with a serious expression, "I have heard a rumor before, but I don't know whether it is true or not. Just listen to it and don't take it seriously!"

Everyone nodded solemnly when they heard this, because they all saw Jiang Li frowning, and it was obvious that this matter must be very serious.

"Do you know about the Jedi Tiantong?"

Jiang Li did not explain directly, but raised a question first.

Everyone nodded when they heard this. "We have heard of this before. It is said that in ancient times, the heaven and earth were connected by Jianmu, and the spiritual energy was extremely rich. There were often cultivators who could achieve enlightenment and become immortals, and immortals, gods, demons and monsters could travel freely between the human world."

"But for some reason, Emperor Zhuanxu cut down the Jianmu tree, severing the connection between heaven and earth. This is to cut off the connection between heaven and earth. And it is precisely because of this that it has become increasingly difficult for cultivators like us to practice!"

Jiang Li nodded upon hearing this, "That's true, but I have heard of the specific reasons, but I don't know if it's true or not!"

"It is said that the idea of ​​the Human Emperor came from Emperor Xuanyuan. He led his tribe to defeat Chiyou and became the ruler of the world, the Human King. But even as the Human King, he was still constrained by the gods. This was because the people at that time were more in awe of the gods than the king."

"Some gods and immortals also act according to their own preferences, completely disregarding the lives of the people. Some gods even require living people to be sacrificed or buried with them. Emperor Xuanyuan is such a person, so he is naturally dissatisfied with this!"

“So he wanted to use the Xuanyuan Sword to gather the destiny of the human race, and use it to achieve the position of the emperor of mankind, gain the power to divide the land of the mountain gods, and control the fate of the human race in the hands of the human race.”

"However, he forgot that at that time, the heaven and earth were connected, and the three realms had close exchanges. It was also because of this that the people believed too much in the words of the immortals and gods, which led to the extreme dispersion of the human race's destiny. In the end, his plan to become the emperor of mankind did not succeed."

"Until the great battle between Gonggong and Zhurong, which broke the Buzhou Mountain, caused the sky to collapse, the earth to collapse, and floods to occur, causing countless lives to suffer."

"Those great gods also came out one after another and began to look for ways to repair the sky in order to reduce their own karma or to earn a large sum of credit."

"In the end, it was the Holy Mother Nuwa who calculated the opportunity to repair the sky. She collected five-colored stones and refined them to repair the sky, which saved the world from the danger of collapse."

"Even so, the order of the human world has still been greatly impacted, and countless lives have been killed and injured. The relationship between immortals and mortals has also become complicated and subtle."

"This gave the emperor's grandson, Emperor Zhuanxu, an opportunity to cut down the Jianmu tree, severing the frequent exchanges between immortals and mortals, making the gods and humans forever separated, and it would be difficult for immortals, gods, demons and monsters to easily create chaos in the human world."

"And this is the origin of the Jedi Tiantong!"

When everyone heard this, they just thought it was a fantasy story, but it was indeed reasonable to imagine. Only then did they roughly understand what the Human Emperor meant.

Seeing their thoughtful expressions, Jiang Li explained to them directly, "You all know the general situation. To sum up, the Human Emperor is: Heaven is the first, Earth is the second, and Human Emperor is the third!"

When the Taoist priests heard this, they immediately panicked, "This...this...this..."

He didn't say a complete sentence for a long time, and finally Xie Changfeng was the first to come back to his senses.

"Does the Xuanyuan Sword's recognition of its master mean that the commander also wants to become the emperor?"

Jiang Li heard this but he neither refuted nor agreed, instead he held his sword and stared at the cave entrance, "Do you know the current situation of the Three Realms?"

"It is difficult for the gods from the heaven to descend to the human world. The underworld is also plagued by internal and external troubles, and the human world is even more chaotic. We just need to unify the world step by step and let the people live in peace. Then the throne of the emperor will be within our grasp. Do you think I should take this gamble?"

After hearing this, several people looked at each other in surprise. It seemed that now was really the best time. There was no pressure in both the heaven and earth, and they just needed to sweep the human world.
