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

Chapter 463 A Flock of People Seeking Help
Lu Ming looked at everyone, waiting for their answers. After all, if they joined the Great Yu, they would lose control of large swathes of their territory.

This can be considered as giving up some of the power.

Therefore, at this point, it's natural to see if others are willing.

After all, if one were to join the Great Yu and then defect due to dissatisfaction, they would become a true enemy.

At that moment, the head of the Dongfang family stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I can accept all of this!"

He knew in his heart that only by joining Dayu would he have the opportunity to advance further.

As allies of the Great Yu, they have learned quite a bit about the Great Yu over the past tens of thousands of years.

Putting aside everything else, let's just talk about the generals who followed Lu Ming.

To be honest, according to some historical records, their talent was not considered very good, and they were far from being considered geniuses.

But the speed of these breakthroughs is astonishing.

Even among the many prodigies in the Hongmeng world, they are far inferior to him.

They simply wouldn't believe it if you said that none of this had anything to do with Lu Ming.

Many of these people come from the same place.

Moreover, these are all remote and impoverished areas, making it impossible for so many outstanding talents to emerge.

Zhang Meng, in particular, according to what they knew, only began his cultivation in middle age.

In the past, he was just a seasoned soldier.

But such a person has actually reached this level of cultivation; who wouldn't be shocked?

Naturally, they hoped to unite closely around Lu Ming.

After all, territory and resources are ultimately for improving one's cultivation level.

If joining the Great Yu Kingdom can help me break through my current limitations, why should I care about everything else?

In their hearts, the requirements are not high; they only need to reach the Saint Ancestor realm, which is above the Saint Venerable realm.

Now that they have reached the Saintly Venerable level, they believe that taking another step forward should not be too difficult.

As the head of the Dongfang family finished speaking, the others also stepped forward.

"We are willing to pledge our allegiance to Your Majesty!"

Their faces were filled with excitement at that moment.

These family heads naturally thought the same way as the head of the Eastern family. However, when someone proposed joining the Great Yu in the past, Lu Ming had not yet emerged from seclusion. Such a big matter was something his officials dared not agree to directly.

Now that Lu Ming is right in front of me, I should take this opportunity to agree.

"Alright, since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Just wait for the imperial court's notification."

"Yes, sir!" the family heads replied immediately upon receiving the order.

There are too many things to deal with in Dayu now, so naturally we need to deal with the unstable areas first, such as the territories we just conquered.

In the territories of ancient clans like the Stone Spirit Clan, there will inevitably be resistance.

Therefore, a large number of city guards had to be transferred there.

As for the various human families, their situation is relatively stable.

That's why they first seized the territory of the ancient clans before gradually accepting the various other families.

However, now that all the major families are under his command, he can forget about going back for the time being.

Just follow your own path.

Firstly, we need to continue assisting the Tianyin Primordial Clan in launching attacks against the ancient clans in the Hongmeng Great World, and stop the ancient clans under the Jinling Primordial Clan from continuing their advance.

Furthermore, having these people by his side makes Lu Ming feel more at ease and easier to control.

The imperial court is not a game. If these major families were just allies in the past, that would be fine, but now that they have joined the Great Yu, they are in serious trouble.

It's inevitable that some decisions will be made on short notice. If someone goes back and changes their mind, then there's only one path left: rebellion.

In doing so, they would be completely on the opposite side of the Great Yu, which is not what Lu Ming wants to see.

Therefore, it is still very necessary for these people to have them by your side.

At the very least, in the time to come, this will allow Lu Ming to increase his authority among the various families.

After the battle, these elite troops should have accepted him.

By then, the officials in the imperial court had already completed the process of incorporating the major families into their fold.

Even if someone wanted to stir up trouble, he couldn't.

Lu Ming now possesses sufficient strength.

This new system allows them to control any situation, unlike the previous Great Yu dynasty which was always stretched thin whenever war broke out.

After Lu Ming finished making these arrangements.

The clan leaders of Wanbao Ancient Clan and others also cautiously approached.

They looked at Lu Ming with awe on their faces.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Thank you for saving my life!"

The two sides had a conflict in the past, but now Da Yu not only saved Wanbao Ancient Clan and others, but is also considered to be their half superior.

This naturally made the patriarchs of these ancient tribes extremely cautious.

When speaking, they act as if they are subordinates.

"No need to be so polite. Let bygones be bygones. Since you support the Tianyin Clan, we are now family. We're not far apart, so if you need anything, you can come to me!"

After the words were spoken, the Wanbao Ancient Clan and other powerful figures were all filled with excitement. They had thought that even if Emperor Yu had saved them this time, he probably wouldn't treat them well. They never expected him to be so kind to them.

This made them breathe a sigh of relief, but when they looked at Lu Ming, the awe in their eyes deepened even further.

In fact, this is yet another difference between the imperial court and a family.

If there has been a fierce killing between the two families, then there is no such thing as reconciliation. Even if one side wants to stop the war, the other side will fight to the death.

However, the imperial court generally accepts anything that benefits its own side.

The Dayu people either don't do anything at all, or if they do, they wipe out the entire clan.

Then, as if he had thought of something, Lu Ming looked at the Wanbao Clan Chief and asked, "How are things on the other battlefields now?"

He had no interest in what the clan chief Wanbao and the others were saying.

Right now, I'm only concerned with the battle of the Tianyin Clan.

After all, although the Great Yu Dynasty is powerful now, they still rely on forces like the Heavenly Silver Primordial Clan.

If the Tianyin Clan is defeated, the Dayu Clan will have no choice but to retreat into its own territory and disappear.

Unless one's cultivation level improves to the point where they can rival the Primordial Clan.

But that period of frustration lasted for tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years.

The human race's activities are limited to their own territory, which is not what Lu Ming wants to see.

In his heart, the Great Yu should always have a place in this Hongmeng Great World, instead of being suppressed in a corner, in darkness and despair.

"Your Majesty, the Golden Spirit Clan now has many ancient clans under its command. In terms of major battlefields, not counting our own, there are two more, and both times our side is at a disadvantage. It won't be long before we are suppressed by the Golden Spirit Clan."

The Wanbao clan chief's voice was filled with helplessness, but he had no other options.

At this moment, Lu Ming raised an eyebrow and said, "Tell me about the battlefield closest to us!"

Clearly, he was preparing to send troops.
