Myriad Realms Summoning System
Chapter Summary
Even when Xiao Longtu wanted to give the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty to him, he was just tempted for a moment and didn't care much about it afterwards. Looking at the sword spirit who had no manners in front of him, didn't care about details at all, and even exposed her perfect curves, Xiao Chen shook his head helplessly. I have also seen one of them before." Xiao Wu nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I said that you are not complete now, at least not in terms of memory.
"Have you heard? General Xue and Prime Minister Feng were both killed by the Emperor!"
"You must be kidding! These two are powerful ministers of our Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty. How could the emperor kill them so easily?"
"I'm not lying to you. If you don't believe me, go and see. The Xue and Feng family mansions have been relocated to the ground."
"That's true. I heard that a mysterious man, like a god descending from heaven, wiped out both families with one blow."
"I heard that too. My uncle is in the Imperial Guards. I heard that Prince Jinyu led his men to capture all the close associates of the Xue and Feng families in the army."
"Oh, I never expected this! The dignified Xue and Feng families have been defeated just like this!"
…
In the imperial capital of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty, the news of recent events was circulating everywhere. No matter whether it was ordinary cultivators or the children of officials, they did not dare to believe that Xue Zhentian and Feng Yuan, who were both powerful in the court, were actually eliminated.
But that's the fact. No matter how prominent they were in their lives, they died in the end.
The mansion was destroyed, all the clan members were killed, and the royal family launched a brutal purge of their power in the imperial capital.
Xiao Jinyu brought the royal guards and captured or killed the trusted generals that the two had placed in the imperial guards. The imperial guards that guarded the imperial capital were finally back in the hands of the royal Xiao family, and they were more secure than ever before.
Not only the military, but even the civil officials in the court were greatly affected. All the officials who had previously supported Feng Yuan and Xue Zhentian in the court were either imprisoned or executed, while the neutral factions retired and returned home one after another.
These neutrals had an ambiguous attitude before, but now that the royal family has regained power, they know that their careers have come to an end. The royal family will not reuse such fence-sitters. Instead of waiting for the royal family to free up their hands to dismiss them, it is better for them to resign on their own initiative.
As for the civil and military officials who firmly supported the Xiao family, they rose to prominence overnight. Because many vacant positions suddenly appeared in the court, many officials loyal to the Xiao family were promoted three levels in a row.
In addition, the Xiao family also drew a lot of talents from the families of these loyal ministers and the royal family to fill the vacancies left by the large number of officials who left, in order to create an ironclad unity inside and outside the court.
After being weak for millions of years, the royal family of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty finally reached its peak, and everything seemed like a dream.
Xiao Jinyu also stood out among the many princes of the royal family. Many people knew that he would be the future emperor of the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty.
It was just as everyone expected. Not long after, Xiao Jinyu was picked out from the list of princes of the Xiao family and was made the crown prince by Emperor Xiao Zhan. He even handed over all state affairs to him. Who made this guy have a good relationship with Xiao Chen?
Of course, this is all in the past.
…
Xiao Chen didn't care much about what happened in the imperial capital. Even when Xiao Longtu wanted to give the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty to him, he was just tempted for a moment and didn't care much about it afterwards. Even if Xiao Longtu didn't give it to him, he could take it himself.
Moreover, after he obtained the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty, there was a high probability that he would not take over the throne of the emperor. It would be too troublesome to control a divine dynasty. It would be better to let someone from the Xiao family sit on the throne, and he would control it from behind.
The most crucial thing is that the Great Zhou Empire now only rules the Tianluo Continent and has no reputation at all in the Qingluo Continent. If he forcibly merges the Jiuxiao Divine Dynasty into the Great Zhou Empire, it will only bring unnecessary trouble.
After thinking it over carefully, Xiao Chen decided to let it go for now and deal with these matters later.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was sitting alone in the luxurious palace prepared for him by Xiao Zhan. He took out the nameless divine sword he had snatched from Xiao Longtu, then gently brushed across the broken blade, smiled faintly and said, "Okay, Xiao Wu, you can come out now!"
As Xiao Chen finished speaking, a lazy, childish voice rang out from the divine sword: "Ah, great! I can finally get some fresh air. This broken sword is really suffocating me! I never want to live in here again."
As soon as he finished speaking, the cute and lovely sword spirit Xiao Wu stretched lazily and appeared in front of Xiao Chen.
Looking at the sword spirit who had no manners in front of him, didn't care about details at all, and even exposed her perfect curves, Xiao Chen shook his head helplessly. Although this girl was a sword spirit, she was too casual!
No matter what, I am still a man! Although I have the memories of Emperor Luo Sheng and can be considered an old monster who has lived for countless years, you are tempting me like this in front of me. Aren't you really afraid that I will eat you?
Don’t you know that loli is the most attractive?
At this moment, the sword spirit suddenly looked at Xiao Chen with a half-smile and said, "Hey, Master, are you tempted by me? Am I beautiful?"
laugh!
Xiao Chen almost spit out a mouthful of salt soda. Only then did he realize that the little girl had done it on purpose. He was actually teased by a sword spirit. Xiao Chen felt that his reputation was ruined and he had lost all his face.
“Ahem…”
Xiao Chen coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment, then said, "Um... Xiao Wu! Stop making trouble, let's talk about you first! How did you know me? What's the relationship between us?"
Xiao Wu pouted, and then her virtual body floated gently to Xiao Chen's side and sat next to him. Xiao Chen did not feel embarrassed. He turned his head to look at Xiao Wu's profile, but found that her expression was a little depressed.
Xiao Chen didn't say anything, but just looked at her silently, waiting for her answer.
She knew that Xiao Wu must be thinking of something sad, otherwise, as a happy sword spirit, she would not show such an expression, so Xiao Chen gave her more time to recall and relieve her emotions.
After about half an incense stick of time, Xiao Wu sighed softly and said, "Master, do you know that the you now is not the complete you, but only retains a part of the original you."
Xiao Chen was not surprised at all by Xiao Wu's words. He just nodded and said, "Yes, I know. I must have experienced reincarnation. Before I reincarnated, I left many clones in the world. I have also seen one of them before."
Xiao Wu nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I said that you are not complete now, at least not in terms of memory. Only when you have collected most of the clones left in the world can you awaken the memories of your past life.
Only then will you be truly complete. Perhaps then, you will also remember Xiaowu!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen fell into a brief moment of contemplation, then asked, "Xiao Wu, you seem to know me very well! So what is the relationship between us? Could it be that you are..."
Having said that, Xiao Chen paused and looked at Xiao Wu in surprise.
Xiao Wu nodded gently and said, "Yes, I am the sword spirit of the master's previous life!"
