Four Seas Cloud Moon

The second-rank official position is so prestigious, so many people would love to have it, but you throw it away like a worn-out shoe, only wanting to be a fifth-rank official. This is truly unprecedented and will never be repeated! Lu Xiaotian shook his head helplessly, then waved his hand and let him leave.

Han Bing kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great grace. I am deeply grateful and will serve the court until my death!" After saying this, he slowly left the hall, secretly rejoicing in his heart.

Lu Xiaotian's thinking is too advanced, which is incomparable to us. He is likely to dominate the world in the future. By then, anyone who is around him will receive a lot of rewards, so the initial investment is irrelevant!

Princess Yue had been the Empress for some time, but she still felt uneasy. She preferred to be by Lu Xiaotian's side rather than on the throne, handling government affairs. Clearly, Princess Yue had no interest in being Emperor. If she continued in this role, Lu Xiaotian would eventually return to Luoshen Country, forcing them to separate—a burden Princess Yue undoubtedly could not bear!

After careful consideration and negotiation, the two nations decided to merge, collectively known as the Luoshen Kingdom. However, despite this, the laws of the Luoshen Kingdom have yet to be fully recognized by the Moon God Kingdom. This involved many complex issues to resolve, including political systems, social customs, and cultural differences. These challenges lay before them, awaiting the joint efforts of both sides to overcome.

The news was like a bombshell dropped into a lake, instantly sending shockwaves through the court. The ministers were utterly shocked, and for a moment, a flurry of discussion filled the hall.

Almost without exception, these ministers strongly opposed it. After all, the nobles and ministers in the court held real power, some even controlling the nation's military might; and their land holdings were immeasurable. If the laws of Luoshen Kingdom were truly implemented, it would undoubtedly have a massive impact on their existing interests. It would be nothing short of ruthless exploitation and a dimensional attack!

Faced with this situation, some timid ministers chose to remain silent, but many more openly expressed their dissatisfaction and anger. However, a few enlightened individuals realized that if they could seize this opportunity to promote reform, it might bring new development opportunities to the country...

The most unacceptable thing is that the country was annexed by Luoshen Kingdom, and Princess Yue became the king of the kingdom. Now everyone is looking at Yue Heng's attitude. Yue Heng is a duke and controls a large number of troops!

Yue Heng had known that this day would come, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. He knew Princess Yue's feelings for Lu Xiaotian, and he had also wanted to assist Princess Yue with all his heart. After all, he was old, and instead of letting Princess Yue suffer, it would be better to let her be happy for the rest of her life!

It was a bright, sunny day. Lu Xiaotian cheerfully headed for Princess Yue's whereabouts, but on the way, he encountered several princes and ministers with gloomy faces and fierce eyes. These men had just emerged from Princess Yue's study, and when they saw Lu Xiaotian, the ferocity on their faces became even more pronounced. If Lu Xiaotian hadn't held significant military power in the Moon God Kingdom, they would have attacked immediately.

However, Lu Xiaotian paid no attention to any of this and walked straight into the study. Upon entering, he saw Yue Heng's face darkened, and Princess Yue appeared worried. When she saw Lu Xiaotian, she felt like she had found support. Without hesitation, she threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

Without further ado, Lu Xiaotian understood what had happened. These princes and ministers had clearly come to force the emperor to abdicate. If it weren't for Yue Heng's support, they might have bullied Princess Yue. Thinking of this, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

The sky was exceptionally dark tonight, without a trace of light, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. The moon and stars were hiding in the deepest part of the clouds.

At three o'clock in the morning, a black shadow came into the yard quietly and silently, where another black shadow was standing. Then the two black shadows disappeared at the same time.

A dark shadow came to the outside of Lu Xiaotian’s bedroom, Young Master.

Lu Xiaotian said, come in and talk.

A black shadow flashed, and the person who came was Ji Zeming!

The ministers and nobles in the prince's court have gathered 20,000 people and are heading towards the palace! Among them are a large number of masters. Please leave the city and take shelter!

Lu Xiaotian said with a gloomy face,

Hiding? I'm not going anywhere!

Then I'll go out of the city to mobilize troops!

It’s too late. Is there anyone with a horizontal moon among these 20,000 people?

No, Yue Heng probably doesn’t know yet!

How many people are we now?

There are 500 of us. Two hundred are now gathered at the gate, and the rest are heading back.

Lu Xiaotian didn't say anything. He came outside and looked at the two hundred people. From time to time, people returned to the team. These people were all wearing black clothes and black hats, breathing evenly, standing there as if they had merged into the night!

Lu Xiaotian glanced at the people in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, I was the one who brought you out of Luoshen Country. Some of us came from the Fengshen Sect with me, and we are considered brothers from the same sect; some have fought alongside me in the military camp; others come from all over the country, all are the pride of heaven, the children of aristocratic families; and some are from poor families. Although I don’t know each of your names, you are all working for me. Now, I am determined to merge the two countries, which undoubtedly affects the interests of some people. Tonight, they gathered more than 20,000 people, including Countless martial artists have come to take my life. You should know that our army is currently stationed outside the city, leaving the city unmanned. In other words, at this moment, we have only you to rely on. Among you, there must be citizens of the Moon God Nation. If you believe that I am destroying your nation, then you may stand up and oppose me! Lu Xiaotian waited a moment, and when no one responded, he continued, "If anyone wishes to die in vain, feel free to leave now. I will not stop you!"

I swear to follow Your Majesty till death, I swear to follow Your Majesty till death, I swear to follow Your Majesty till death!

Lu Xiaotian waved his hand and said,

"Great! You're all true men of courage! Today, I, Lu Xiaotian, will stand with you through life and death!" Before he finished speaking, Lu Xiaotian stepped out, tightly gripping the gleaming demonic sword in his hand. He stood firmly at the front of the team, like an indestructible mountain. The remaining three hundred or so people quickly and silently divided into four groups, each of which then split into four more. This way, each sub-group consisted of around twenty people.

No one spoke, and apart from moving in groups, there was no extra movement. The long swords in their hands were particularly dazzling in the dark night!
