My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 271 The Battle of Jinling 10
Along with the death of those terrible beasts one after another.

The fairy mountain seems to have really appeared.

They are hidden in the mist raised by the blood demons and innocent souls, looming, attracting countless alchemists into the tiger's mouth...

When the Sea Dragon King was still immersed in reminiscing about the past, a roar like thunder ripped through the sky above his head.

It even tore apart the white mist summoned by the shark.

The golden red firelight in the sky was so dazzling.

Even the shark nobles in the sea changed their expressions when they saw this, and hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at this soaring power.

In his ears, as countless mermaids screamed as their eyes turned into charcoal, the worry in the Sea Dragon King's heart became more intense.

It looked at the person in front of it, and suddenly seemed to see traces of those terrible things walking in the world again.

"We don't have many direct conflicts, so why can't we agree on the border and live in peace with each other?"

It said so, with a low tone even somewhat sincere.

Perhaps it was an instinctive warning, and the keen sixth sense that had secretly helped it avoid countless disasters was constantly reminding it that if it had to fight to the death with the earthly humans and gods in front of it who claimed to be the Son of Destiny, if.

Fate will not be on your side.

If only you are alone.

Its huge eyes swirled, scanning the endless deep sea behind it and the abandoned dragon palaces.

It was not that he was counting on the help of the sharks in the Dragon Palace.

If they lose the protection of destiny, it will be difficult for those sharks to protect themselves.

What it hopes for is another ally who can lend a helping hand to it from the sea.

The clouds and mist in front of me have cleared, and there is a huge sky hanging between the panicked sky and fire.

It saw Zhu Houcong standing in the sky holding a sword in his left hand and a spear in his right hand.

He raised the fire spear in his hand high and threw it forward. The destructive spear composed of the Three Yang Mysterious Fire fell rapidly downwards.

Zhu Houcong responded with action.

"It's just fighting——"

Seeing that the Emperor Ming Ting in front of him was unwilling to explain even the most basic negotiations to him, the Sea Dragon King finally became truly angry.

It hated the contempt of the Emperor Ming Ting in front of it, as if he had already eaten it.

But what's more, I'm afraid, is the panic in my heart that the two of them will fight soon and I won't be sure of victory.

"You sharks are killing people without restraint, and heaven and man share the same hatred. I am here to raise an army, not for my own selfish gain, but to punish them on behalf of heaven——"

Along with the fire spear falling from the sky.

Zhu Houcong pressed his sword and dived towards it.

The destiny he talks about is not those terrible things that hide behind history and silently control human history.

But the true supreme will.

Manifest Destiny is the gathering of the free will of all human beings and the longing for it in the hearts of all peoples.

Maybe his time travel was not an accident.

Following the stream of light brought by the falling spear, Zhu Houcong held the King of Qin Sword and looked at these terrifying sea creatures in front of him.

I thought to myself.

The pain in the world, he came here in obedience to the call of all the people who were bullied by the slaves of demons.

This is not to say that it is a conspiracy theory. Zhu Houcong's time travel was deliberately arranged by certain forces and people.

But the historical will of this world has advanced to this step.

The Ming Dynasty has been in decline for hundreds of years, but Zhu Houcong would not have emerged.

Continue to fall according to the original historical trajectory.

The destiny must be stolen by new demons and evil spirits.

When civilization continues to sink on this land, won't it give human beings and ethnic groups in other places the opportunity to take advantage of this history and meet their own manifest destiny?

How can our civilization be reduced to a vassal of others?

Perhaps this is also the silent request of history, and it is also the appeal of the supreme historical will in this land.

Zhu Houcong came here with this mission in mind.

Stabilize the internal affairs, expel miscreants, and unite the civil and military forces.to maintain the basic stability of this regime.

At this time, he had three main opponents. One was Empress Dowager Zhang who had controlled the harem in the capital for 30 years. Behind him stood the Hai Clan from the East.

The second is Yang Tinghe, Wuzong's teacher, a veteran of three dynasties, and the chief assistant of two dynasties. Behind him is the powerful man in the world who has become more and more disloyal because of the rapid decline of the Ming court's power.

The third is the northern warlords headed by Jiubian, who have risen rapidly within the Ming army in the past few decades because the imperial court has been in arrears with military pay all year round and has been looking for a way to survive.

Zhu Houcong solved them one by one.

At this moment, he looked at the last barrier behind the sharks harassing the coast of the Ming Dynasty.

Relatives, gentry, warlords——

Following the wave after wave of cheers from the Ming troops on both sides of the Taiwan Strait after their victory.

These threats that may have caused the Ming court to shake its rule have been resolved by Zhu Houcong in turn.

Now there is no one within the Ming court who can shake his position.

In other words, today's Zhu Houcong is Ming Ting, and Ming Ting is Zhu Houcong.

All power converged in Zhu Houcong's hands.

Now - he is already "fixed".

-

When Zhu Houcong eliminates the last opponent in front of him, the biggest and final opponent who may take advantage of the internal turmoil in the Ming court to pose a threat from the outside is the Queen of the Sharks.

He can then completely let go of his hands and feet and initiate real and thorough reforms within the Ming court in a relatively stable environment.

Domain king—civilian officials—military generals

Reconstruct the civilization system of the Ming Dynasty's nine states and overseas countries.

Perhaps this is the most dangerous battle he has fought in these years, except for the period when Anlu first glimpsed the real world through the Zhutian Baojian.

But it's all worth it -

As the fire spear collided head-on with the waves set off by the Sea Dragon King that went straight up to the nine heavens.

The sea water was dyed blood red.

The painful wail of the huge creature behind the waves did not deter Zhu Houcong from continuing his pursuit.

Instead, he held the King of Qin's Sword tightly and guarded it by his side.

"Three Yang Mysterious Fires, protect me on both sides."

A wall of fire emerged from behind Zhu Houcong, blocking the ice that came from behind.

Zhu Houcong turned his head.

The ice may not look amazing, but the blazing flames that can burn mountains and boil seas cannot burn them at all.

It wasn't until Zhu Houcong smashed it into pieces with his sword that the threat behind him was eliminated.

Not far away, like moonlight slanting on the sea, a silver-white shadow of a fairy figure with fluttering clothes emerged from it.

"Three days of pure energy are favoring you. I shouldn't attack you, but His Majesty decided to fight -"

That figure has no face or body.

Composed entirely of beams of light, accompanied by a terrifying wailing sound.

Zhu Houcong looked at it with the qi-gazing technique, but he still could only see some distorted light beams.

This surprised Zhu Houcong secretly, and he couldn't help but secretly suspect that the thing in front of him was not his real body.

"I can only comply with Your Majesty's wishes——"

On the shore, Zhang Fawei looked at the familiar figure emerging from the water and confronting Zhu Houcong in the air.

Even though that figure was entirely composed of beams of light.

But growing up in the Tianshi Mansion since childhood and familiar with Taoist scriptures, Zhang Fawei believed that he would never admit his mistakes.

He murmured with an expression of a collapsed outlook on life.

"The Heavenly Master descended upon me and ascended the Immortal Robe——"

"Is it true that there are people in this world who can become immortals through military means?"
