Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 175 Intimidating All Enemies
At this moment, no one in the imperial court had expected that Lu Ming's strength would be so terrifying.

After a moment, the empress on the dragon throne finally spoke.

"Lord Zhige has secured Hanzhou in one battle. After this battle, we have completely reversed our disadvantage. I think he is worthy of being ennobled as a duke. Prime Minister, please work with the various departments to draft a reward plan."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Yan immediately stood up and spoke.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he said, "Your Majesty, I see that Prince Li and Prince Fu have already been captured. They are the embodiment of destiny. Now that they have fallen into our hands, shouldn't we immediately dispatch a large army?"

They launched a surprise attack on the territories occupied by the two rebel kings.

If we can reclaim the territory, we can mitigate some of our disadvantages.

His words instantly energized the assembled officials.

Lu Ming has already forced the Kaiyang Sect to withdraw and cooperate with the Dayu. If he can eliminate two more sects, only four sects will remain within the Dayu territory.

Then the pressure will be much less.

"Your Majesty, I will personally lead the Imperial Guards to reclaim the lost territory," the Fifth Ancestor said, stepping forward.

This is indeed an opportunity for Dayu.

The two elite troops under the rebel king were killed, and the two men themselves were captured; their fortunes had almost completely vanished.

The disciples of Tianquan Sect and Tianxuan Sect, who were supporting them, were also mostly killed by Lu Ming.

At this most vulnerable time, an old ancestor, plus an army of 100,000, is enough to recover the lost territory.

"allow!"

The Queen was in a good mood today and immediately spoke.

Then he continued, "Dismiss the court!"

Then, they left the main hall.

After she left.

At this moment, the courtiers were also in an uproar.

They were completely stunned by Lu Ming's performance today.

I never thought of that.

The emergence of such a powerful being in the Great Yu Dynasty was already unbelievable to everyone, especially considering that Lu Ming was on par with Dao Zi.

Now, not only has he directly killed a Daoist Child, but he has also suppressed all the Daoist Children and Saintesses with his own strength.

Putting everything else aside, just look at this strength.

In the Great Yu of today, everyone must treat him with caution.

This is a truly important figure; not only is he powerful himself, but he also has a group of arrogant and fierce generals under his command.

At this moment, Lu Ming didn't care about any of that; he had already opened the system shop.

The numbers displayed above pleased him greatly.

"2.8 billion points."

If Lu Ming could exchange for another Nine Cauldrons, even a Divine Power Realm expert would be unable to set foot on the coastal lands. This was Lu Ming's true reliance.

At that time, even if someone at the Feather Transformation Realm descended, he could handle it with ease.

Among those of the same realm, he truly feared no one.

Without hesitation, he immediately exchanged for a Nine Cauldron.

The next moment, another ancient bronze cauldron appeared in his palm.

Lu Ming squeezed out a drop of blood from his palm, which fell onto the surface.

The surface of the cauldron shimmered with a soft luster.

Then, he put it away.

The three cauldrons then appeared inside his body.

Feeling the weight and significance of the treasure.

Lu Ming's lips curled up, and then he began to search for the bloodline of a ferocious beast. After all, he was about to break through, so he naturally needed to prepare a suitable bloodline of a ferocious beast.

However, after looking through it for a while, he was not very satisfied.

There were only some pure-blooded Kui Niu and Gu Diao, which were more powerful than the mixed-blooded ferocious beasts that the Daoists had shown, but if Lu Ming had to choose...

I still feel dissatisfied.

After browsing for a while, he finally found a good item in the next level of the shop: the pure Golden Crow bloodline. It goes without saying how powerful this is.

A ruthless figure who could dominate the primordial heavenly court, commanding all demons under his command.

It can transform into the sun itself.

The only problem is that this true blood is a bit expensive, costing 5 billion points.

Lu Ming's eyes flashed. "It's expensive, but it's worth it. After all, it'll be with me for a lifetime."

Now, after redeeming the Nine Cauldrons, I still have 1.8 billion points.

With another 3.2 billion, it can be exchanged.

Although he didn't know where the Golden Crow bloodline ranked, he discovered that it was already the highest-level bloodline in the store.

For the sake of the Golden Crow bloodline, I can wait.

And just as he opened his eyes.

Zhang Meng had somehow found himself standing next to Lu Ming.

"My lord, all the rebels have been killed. The Seventh Ancestor has entered the city and is guarding the yamen, waiting for your arrival."

Lu Ming nodded, and then walked towards the city.

The entire city of Binghu is now in chaos, with people hiding in their courtyards, peeking through cracks in their doors.

The soldiers in each battalion were searching for any remaining rebels, as long as they were hiding.

They will be dragged out and killed.

The ground was covered in flowing blood.

Armored soldiers were constantly running through the streets.

However, upon seeing Lu Ming, they all bowed in greeting.

I just entered the naval base.

I saw that all sorts of delicious food had already been laid out in the front hall.

Lu Ming's generals also arrived.

Even Sun He and Zhang He were invited to sit at the table.

"Greetings, Lord Marquis!" The generals immediately stood up when they saw Lu Ming.

Even the disciples of the Kaiyang Sect were the same.

Only the Seventh Ancestor sat there with a smile, looking at Lu Ming and saying, "Sit down quickly. I've prepared some strong liquor unique to the Ice Plains today. Let's drink more together, you and me."

Then he continued, "You've secretly accomplished something amazing. You've actually occupied all the coastal waters and even established a navy."

In the past, even the imperial court wouldn't have dared to think this way.

"If there were a few more Dao Lords, your strength would rival that of the imperial clan."

The Seventh Patriarch chuckled and drank a cup of wine.

Lu Ming replied, "Are you insulting me? I dare not bear such a great title."

“What are you afraid of? There are no outsiders here. I have faith in you. The more chips you have in your hands, the easier it will be for that matter to succeed. After this trip, I will definitely go back and have a good discussion with the clan.” The Seventh Ancestor said meaningfully.

Lu Ming could only drink helplessly.

Then, turning his gaze to Sun He, he asked, "I heard that something happened to you on the way?"

"My lord, on the way, we encountered a caravan from the Five Elements Sect. They insisted that we had stolen their goods and wanted to board the ship for inspection."

As a result, they searched the ship and took away all the spirit stones and spirit rice.

They even killed two captains who tried to argue with them!
If I weren't worried about delaying the Marquis's affairs, I would have killed them all.

As he spoke, Sun He's eyes reddened.

A faint killing intent emanated from him.

Lu Ming raised an eyebrow. "Where is the Five Elements Sect from?"

"In the west of the Great Yu, there is a powerful sect. The sect leader is a master of the Feather Transformation Realm, and he has many subordinates who have passed the Tribulation Realm. Although it cannot compare with the Seven Great Sects, it is much more powerful than the Great Yu in the present day."

You'll have to swallow this for now.

You may be a big shot in the Great Yu, but once you're in the outer realms, you're no more than a turtle in a pond.

In this world, without strength, you'll suffer more often than not.

Back then, the Great Yu suffered the massacre of a million soldiers, but for the sake of hundreds of millions of people, didn't it eventually back down?

This was because they had always relied on the Tian Shu Sect.

There are reasons why they stepped in to mediate.

Even if the court stabilizes the situation now, life will likely be very difficult.

Without the support of the Tian Shu Sect, the Kai Yang Sect's relationship with us is only temporary.

"You'll be in for a rough time then!"

When the Seventh Patriarch spoke, a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

Lu Ming frowned.

He didn't respond, but looked at Sun He and asked, "What is your relationship with those two captains?" Most of the soldiers under Sun He and Zhang He were recruited from various families in the sea area.

Some of them were even related to them.

Judging from Sun He's demeanor, the person who was killed was probably closely related to him.

"One is my son, and the other is my nephew. They are quite talented. I originally brought them along to show off in front of the Marquis."

"Who would have thought he'd be killed like this?" Zhang He said in a low voice.

Actually, he had considered risking his life at the time.

However, they were no match for each other, as the opposing ship had a powerful figure in command.

If they were to fight, they would likely all die on the battlefield.

Another issue is that I might not be able to arrive on time to coordinate with Lu Ming's attack on the city.

This plan is very likely to fail.

In the end, he chose to endure.

However, when Lu Ming asked him about it now, he finally couldn't hold back anymore.

Just like a child who has been beaten.

He complained to his parents.

Lu Ming nodded. "The hatred of blood relatives must be avenged. I promise you, sooner or later, our army will enter the Five Elements Sect and wipe them out."

Lu Ming spoke with a hint of ruthlessness.

Although everyone knew the Five Elements Sect was powerful, no one doubted what he said.

The Seventh Ancestor opened his mouth, wanting to dissuade him, for he knew better than anyone how powerful the Five Elements Sect was.

But in the end, they chose to remain silent.

Then, he raised his glass and said, "I'll work hard to improve my skills, and one day I'll have my chance."

After saying that, he drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

At this moment, Lu Ming's gaze fell on the Seventh Ancestor and asked, "How are the Grand Tutor and the others?"

"The rebels over there have all fled. Lin Hong and his men are heading towards the prefectural city and should arrive tomorrow."

Yu Sanjian drank another glass of wine and then said.

Lu Ming nodded and said nothing more.

There are still nearly two million rebel troops in Hanzhou.

Next, there's another big battle to be fought.

However, he was somewhat confident about this.

As long as no powerful experts participate in the battle, it doesn't matter to him how many other experts come.

After the meal, everyone went to rest.

Meanwhile, in Tianchi Prefecture of Hanzhou.

Prince Yong sat in the garrison's mansion, his face somewhat gloomy.

When they last met, they all believed they would win the battle, and even the various rebel kings began to scheme against each other.

I never expected this.

Such a big thing happened.

Things took a turn for the worse.

The two rebel kings were arrested, and Tianxuan Daozi was killed.

It wasn't exactly the end of the world.

However, for the various rebel kings who have not yet completely defeated the Great Yu, this is definitely a huge loss.

The faces of Prince Yu, Prince Ling, and Prince Kui, who were standing to the side, were also not good.

“Immortal Master, that Marquis Zhige is so powerful that even you are no match for him?” Prince Yong looked at Daoist Tian Shu.

The other person was sitting there, drinking tea, and didn't seem inclined to speak.

Liu Xuan then said, "This is not a matter of whether or not we can suppress Marquis Zhige. Our master can certainly defeat him if he goes all out, but you should know..."

Daozi has already obtained a spot to enter the Immortal Realm. Have you ever seen porcelain and earthenware pots fight head-on?

Therefore, it's already quite good that our master was able to stop that Marquis Zhige.

With the support of Tian Shu Dao Zi, Liu Xuan now shows no respect for anyone.

Moreover, and most importantly, now that they can enter the Immortal Realm, they no longer care about the fortune generated by the Eternal King.

As far as she knew, once she entered the Immortal Realm, becoming an immortal would be much easier than it was now.

Prince Yong was speechless for a moment after hearing Liu Xuan's words.

His face turned pale and blue.

After a moment, he asked, "Can Hanzhou still be fought?"

"Unless the Divine Power Realm cultivators break free from the Kaiyang Sect's entanglement, it will be difficult to take them down with Zhige Hou around. I suggest we retreat; otherwise, all our elite troops will be wasted here."

There will be no benefit whatsoever.

It would be better to wait until Marquis Zhige returns to his fiefdom, then concentrate our forces and eliminate him.

If we're talking about threats, I feel that Lu Ming, once he grows up, is even more threatening than Da Yu.

At least in the Great Yu region, it's very difficult for anyone to control him now.

Tian Shu Dao Zi spoke.

A calm expression appeared on his face.

Prince Yu, standing to the side, pondered for a moment and then said, "That makes sense. I've noticed that every time we gain the upper hand, as soon as this Marquis Zhige comes out..."

Something bad is bound to happen.

"It would be better to find a way to eliminate him first, and then attack Dayu."

“Alright, let’s do it that way. We’ll withdraw our troops tonight and then attack Marquis Zhige once he’s gone back,” Prince Yong said fiercely.

Clearly, these rebel leaders now regard Lu Ming as their biggest obstacle.

Tian Shu Dao Zi laughed and said, "That's right. I received some news that Tian Xuan Sect is furious because of Dao Zi's death and has already announced that they will send a Dao Lord to kill Zhi Ge Hou."

You know what this means, right?

Although in the Great Yu region, Daojun's strength was suppressed.

It can only unleash the peak level of supernatural powers.

However, the combat experience they have accumulated is terrifying.

Moreover, those who have reached this level of cultivation are all invincible within their respective realms.

Therefore, if a Dao Lord truly descends.

"The Marquis of Zhige is doomed!"

Tian Shu Dao Zi said calmly.

Upon receiving this news, Prince Yong immediately smiled.

"Alright, alright, then let's head back now. We won't plunder Hanzhou anymore. We'll eliminate Zhigehou first, then Da Yu!"

After he finished speaking, he sent his subordinates to relay the order.

A moment later, shouts could be heard from outside.

A large amount of supplies began to be loaded onto the wagons.

The various rebel kings have all begun to withdraw.

At this time, Lu Ming was unaware of all this, as a night passed.

The next morning, he had just stepped out of his tent.

Then I saw the Seventh Ancestor walk over, his face full of excitement. "Haha, I just received news that all the rebel kings have retreated and left Hanzhou. You are truly remarkable."

In just one battle, they were so frightened that they retreated in fear.

He's even more impressive than Lin Hong.

The Seventh Patriarch seems to be very happy now.

While speaking, he didn't forget to take out the wine pot and take a sip.

Lu Ming frowned; he felt things couldn't be that simple.

But Yu Sanjian had already pulled him back and continued, "Oh right, there's something I forgot to tell you. Lin Hong and the others have arrived and are outside the camp, along with that holy maiden from the Kaiyang Sect."

"She has a bad temper. I heard she was yelling at you not long ago that she'd teach you a lesson. You'd better be lenient with her when we meet. You can't afford to offend the Kaiyang Sect right now."

Yu Sanjian was worried that Lu Ming might kill the saintess if he got upset.

The latter simply nodded.

Without saying much, he followed Yu Sanjian out of the camp.

He was also very curious about this Holy Maiden of Kaiyang.

The other party has made quite a few attacks against me.

Now that I've met you in person, I'm eager to see if you're really as arrogant and powerful as the legends say.
