After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

When Ji Wuchen saw that it was Chen Fu who had slaughtered Zhang Fan, he couldn't help but smile bitterly three times, and finally shook his head. "I still owe the Zhang family a life. I want to personally send the young master back to the Zhang family for burial. I hope Your Majesty will grant my request."

"Okay, remember to come back soon." Chen Futu tossed him another pill. "This is a Creation Pill. I know you forcibly raised your cultivation level and your meridians were severely damaged. It can heal you and stabilize your cultivation."

"Absolutely not!"

Ji Wuchen shook his head repeatedly, thinking that it would be a waste for him to consume such a precious medicine.

Chen Futu said unhappily, "The item is indeed precious, but it's worth exchanging for a Sword Saint. Remember, from now on you are a member of the Royal Court. Go."

"Here."

Ji Wudao eventually took Zhang Fan's body with him, and this time no one dared to stop him.

The news that three saints appeared in Dragon City tonight will soon spread throughout the world.

According to legend, there is also a Sword Saint and a Confucian Saint in the Northern Frontier. In that case, there are five saints known to the public. Such a foundation is too outrageous. If the King of the Northern Frontier were to get ruthless and release the five killing gods onto the battlefield, wouldn't it be a chaotic massacre? Who among the nations could compete with him?

After the farce ended, Chen Futu returned to Baiyujing with Qingyi, Diaochan, Longluo, and other disciples from Zhongnan Mountain. As for Yan Wuqing, he was released. Since he had lost all four limbs, he wouldn't live much longer anyway, so why would they give him the precious Creation Pill to heal him?

To be honest, the Creation Pill he currently possesses was obtained from the monthly refresh of the system's shop, and each pill is worth 500,000 taels of silver. He, Yan Wuqing, is not worthy of it.

Upon returning to Baiyujing, Qingyi and Longluo went to consolidate their cultivation levels.

Chen Futu said to Diao Chan with a smile, "Tonight's harvest is huge. My Northern Frontier is now quite formidable."

Diao Chan whispered, "Your Majesty, this is all thanks to the Imperial Advisor. If she hadn't deliberately provoked Ji Wuchen, he wouldn't have recovered his cultivation, and she wouldn't have made further progress under the pressure of the Sword Saint. She's quite ruthless."

"With the transformation of the ruthless sword path into the destructive sword path, Qingyi's future achievements will surely be considerable. Do you think she will be your match once her cultivation is stable?" Chen Futu asked curiously.

Diao Chan pondered for a moment, "If her cultivation level is stable, then I should be evenly matched with her."

"so smart!"

Chen Futu marveled.

Diao Chan is no ordinary saint. She is a perfect personality created out of thin air by the system based on five thousand years of history, and she has integrated some talents and skills from electronic entertainment in the later era. Ordinary saints in the middle stage cannot defeat her. Once Qingyi stabilizes, he can compete with her. She is indeed a genius of her generation, and she is also worthy of being the national teacher of the Northern Frontier.

In short, Chen Futu was in a very good mood tonight, and after drinking a few more cups of wine, he fell asleep with Diao Chan in his arms.

In the days that followed, news of the great battle between the sages and Chen Futu's theory on the fate of the nation spread rapidly from Longcheng, shaking all forces and causing great anxiety in the capital.

Soon, a powerful figure from the ancient palace approached the new emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty for a secret meeting, announcing that the ancient palace was about to enter the world.

【Ding! 】

[Detection indicates that the ancient temple is about to enter the mortal world due to the host's influence.]

"Just wait a moment."

Chen Futu sat atop the Baiyujing Tower, rubbing his temples, his mind a jumbled mess. "Why did they suddenly enter the mortal world?"

[Because the host has disrupted the heavenly secrets and their plans.]

"Let me guess, are they planning to plunder the fate of the Great Qian Dynasty?"

Please make the following choice, host.

[1. Before choosing to cooperate with the Ancient Palace and the Great Qian Dynasty, send out troops first to sweep across the world. The reward is 100,000 Qin elite soldiers and the general Bai Qi, the God of Slaughter, whose cultivation level is at the peak of Grandmaster.]

[2. Choose to quickly dismantle the ancient palace's affiliated forces and eliminate their henchmen. The reward is that Ake's cultivation level will be raised to the early stage of Sainthood, equivalent to Diaochan. The host will also be given Ake's ultimate skill, Ten Directions Annihilation Perfection.]

[3. Choose to send an envoy to surrender to the Ancient Palace, hand over the future destiny of the nation, and ask the Ancient Palace to support the Northern Frontier. The host will be rewarded with the cultivation level of a Saint.]

"System, you're a dog!"

Chen Futu grimaced as he looked at the options, especially the third one—was this even a human choice?

He's a time traveler, doesn't he care about saving face?

Please make a choice as soon as possible.

"Giving me Qin Ruishi won't help. Right now, the northern frontier doesn't lack troops, it lacks food. Without enough provisions, we simply can't sustain our consumption."

Chen Futu sighed and shifted his gaze to option two. There was no other way but to choose it.

[Ake's cultivation infusion is complete, her realm has been raised to the early stage of Sainthood, and the host has obtained the Great Perfection Ten Directions Nirvana Enlightenment]

As soon as the system voice finished speaking, a series of bloody images appeared in Chen Futu's mind. In the images, Ake was fighting fiercely. The smell of blood was so strong that Chen Futu almost fainted. It took him a long time to recover. Moreover, his sword intent had reached the perfection of sword momentum.

In other words, Chen Futu's cultivation level is now high enough to rival that of a Grandmaster.

Moreover, Ake truly lives up to her reputation as the "God of Slaughter" in Tianjizi's words; she is a monster.

Even though Chen Futu has mastered the Ten Directions of Annihilation, the power he displays is completely different from that of Ake. He cannot be as ruthless and decisive as Ake.

"System, is there a way for me to have a long-distance conversation with Ake?"

[The system's monthly special offer shop may refresh; please keep an eye out.]

"Alright, it seems we'll have to have the Embroidered Uniform Guard inform her."

Chen Futu summoned Mao Xiang to deliver a message to Ake: first eliminate the high-ranking members of the Red Moon Tower, then support Xiao Qi to take power, and finally, use the Red Moon Tower's information network to investigate which forces are affiliated with the Ancient Palace. After eliminating them, transport the money and food over.

Mao Xiang accepted the order and left. Afterwards, Chen Futu took Dian Wei to the mansion in the development zone, intending to visit Su Yun.

When they arrived at the gate of the house, they saw Ma Chao talking to Su Yun in the courtyard.

Dian Wei muttered, "My lord, the horse has overstepped its bounds. I'll go and beat it up."

"Come back here, you silly goose."

Chen Futu grabbed Dian Wei, who had no sense of propriety.

Last night, it could be said that Ma Chao saved Su Yun; if it weren't for him, Su Yun would have been in serious trouble.

So it's a good thing that Miss Su wants to repay him with her body.

Chen Futu didn't dare to disturb them and planned to leave with Dian Wei, but unexpectedly Su Yun saw Ma Chao off at the door.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward during the meeting.

Chen Futu, sitting on the carriage shaft, bumped into Dian Wei and exclaimed, "Oh, what a lovely day!"

"Ah? Oh, my lord, didn't you say you wanted to go for a stroll outside the city? Let's go now."

Dian Wei grinned憨厚ly and prepared to ride away.

Ma Chao asked suspiciously, "My lord, what brings you here?"

"Just passing by, is Miss Su alright?" Chen Futu asked casually. Su Yun stepped forward and bowed. "I am grateful for Your Majesty's kindness. I am fine, just some minor injuries."

"It's good that you're alright. Mengqi, take good care of Miss Su. General Dian and I are going out of the city for a stroll."

Chen Futu winked at Dian Wei, signaling him to leave quickly.

Unexpectedly, Ma Chao nimbly jumped onto the carriage, saying, "Don't rush, take me with you."

"What are you doing following along? Go and keep Miss Su company."

Chen Futu kept giving him meaningful glances, but Ma Chao refused to go down, he was such a straight man.

Cao Zhen, Dian Wei, Guan Yu, and Huo Qubing have all found partners, and even Zhang Liang has hooked up with Dong Xian'er. Only he, Gao Shun, and Gan Ning are still single. Don't they know how anxious they are?

Ma Chao scratched his head sheepishly, as if he had something difficult to say.

Chen Futu had no choice but to have Dian Wei urge the horse forward. Once the carriage left the development zone, he asked Ma Chao what the situation was.

Logically speaking, shouldn't Su Yun repay the life-saving grace by offering himself to Ma Chao, who is quite handsome?
