Sweeping both worlds: Starting from idealistic martial arts

Chapter 289 Taking Office at Da Yan
Several minutes have passed since the battle ended in the various kingdoms of the martial world.

But the aftermath of this battle was like a rising tide, endless and ever-spreading.

On the streets of Daiyan Kyoto, tourists have put down what they were doing.

They leaned against walls or in alleyways, holding food in their hands, intently watching the battle unfold before them.

In the blink of an eye, the street corner was packed with pedestrians, just like watching a movie in the open air, staring blankly at the scene unfolding before them.

A martial artist at the second level of the Profound Realm exclaimed in amazement as he watched the battle footage playing in front of him:

"This is too strong! Is this what battles between the fourth and fifth ranks are like? Every inheritance is incredibly powerful. Why do they have such vivid imaginations?!"

"Holy crap!" Suddenly, a martial artist at the fifth level of the Profound Realm widened his eyes and exclaimed while watching Bai Xiaosheng's live stream:
"Xiang Hongtu's ability is to reverse time! That's too overpowered! Isn't that invincible? I don't even know how Fang Can's side is going to fight!"

Upon hearing this, some martial artists and civilians nearby who couldn't keep up with his pace of observation widened their eyes in astonishment:

"What did you say? Xiang Hongtu's ability is to reverse time?"

"Holy crap, I just saw Ji Donglai teleport and rip out the heart and lungs of the fourth-stage Chaos Bracelet."

"Damn it, just watch it properly, don't tell anyone, what are you spoilers for!"

……

As the shouts from the street rose and fell, Fu Yuxiang's eyes showed a hint of realization.

Just yesterday, Fang Can had won first place in the grand competition among nations.

From our first meeting to my defeat, it was less than two months. How come in the blink of an eye, the other team has already started leading a team to reach the fourth tier, while I'm still stuck at the first tier?

At this moment, in his eyes, the gap between the two of them had become so vast that it was a matter of despair!
Those who shared his thoughts were the young elites who had faced off against Fang Can at Fangcun Mountain a few days earlier! They watched helplessly as Fang Can joined this battle that would be recorded in history.

While they were lost in thought on the street, a martial artist whose cultivation had reached the first level was taking steps toward the street.

He's about to do something very despicable.

He stopped at the street corner, looked at the people on both sides of the street who were watching the live broadcast intently, and took a deep breath.

The next moment, a deafening roar erupted from his mouth:

"Fang Can was victorious in the end! Not a single person on their side died!"

"Yi Tianxing died from playing chess in the end; he lost all seven games to Fang Can!"

"Xiang Hongtu has two lives! One life was lost to a copycat, and the other was when his head was cut off by the sect leader of Jiejian Mountain."

……

After he unleashed the spoilers at the top of his lungs, the entire street fell silent.

After understanding the meaning, a deafening roar of curses erupted from all directions:
"Fuck!"

"Straight bitch!"

Do I need you to tell me?

……

Then, with a satisfied air, he listened to the endless stream of curses coming from half the city because of the spoilers, and then happily slipped away.

At this moment, let's not talk about the interesting things happening on the streets.

In the capital of Dayan, Prince Qing and his entourage stood in the main hall, their expressions tense.

The Golden Palace was now eerily quiet and desolate compared to the previous lively discussions; the number of people was less than half. Most of them had been taken away by the "Rotten Life King" and his gang as material.

In the entire court, only Prince Qing and Elder Yang were at the third rank, which can be described as another major purge.

After the live stream ended and they witnessed Fang Can and his group defeat those fourth-tier cultivators, they had already been waiting in the palace.

They await the darkest moment that will determine their fate.

The next moment, two figures suddenly teleported into the main hall.

The moment he appeared, most of the court officials present immediately bowed down, displaying the same deference they would show to the emperor.

"I'll leave the rest of the work here to you. Contact me immediately if there's any danger. We'll be leaving now," Ji Donglai said.

Fang Can is now the most suitable person to represent superpowered individuals and take over Dayan.

After all, they had connections with both the royal family and the Jiejian Mountain, and they had killed all the other fourth-stage Great Evolution cultivators.

Moreover, Fang Can's intuition can detect danger, preventing him from being ambushed and killed by a fourth-tier enemy.

And there's also Bai Xiaosheng, who might successfully break through to the fifth level. I wonder what he'll do next.

In this situation, Ji Donglai's ability to remain hidden and unassuming can maximize his effectiveness.

After all, no one wants to face a hidden potential enemy, and this is true for Ji Donglai and the other four-turners.

"No problem," Fang Can agreed.

Although I don't want to deal with the post-war cleanup work, which is far less leisurely than cultivating in peace, I am the only one suitable for this job because there is a shortage of manpower.

After a few brief instructions, Ji Donglai turned his head, his scarred face contorted in a stern voice, and warned:
"If you don't want to die, you'd better listen to Fang Can in everything you do from now on, and treat him with the same respect you would show to your ancestors!"

"Otherwise, I'll dig up your ancestral graves and send you down to meet your ancestors!"

"We will obey Lord Ji Donglai's orders!" the civil and military officials present responded in low voices, their tone showing no displeasure whatsoever.

After all, the attitude towards the fourth job advancement was the same before; it's just that there's a different person in charge now.

The imperial court has always been a dog of others; now it's just that the masters have changed, but there's not much difference.

Looking at this group of officials who didn't even have superpowers, Ji Donglai snorted coldly and then disappeared.

If it weren't for the concern that killing too many people might trigger the Great Ancestor's backup methods, there would have been no reason to leave so many troublesome individuals behind.

After Ji Donglai left, Fang Can waved his hand with a calm smile and said, "Alright, get up, everyone. I'm a pretty easy person to talk to."

As Fang Can spoke, the court officials present breathed a sigh of relief. At least they knew Fang Can's personality and that he wasn't as violent as Ji Donglai.

Just as the senior officials were about to get up, they heard a whisper from the side: "Hey, wait? You're really getting up?"

Upon hearing this, many court officials present stiffened abruptly, finding themselves in an awkward position, unsure whether to stand or kneel.

"Alright, just kidding." Fang Can sat on the cold dragon throne and said leisurely, "Get up quickly, anyone who doesn't get up is disrespecting me."

Upon hearing this, the court officials felt as if they had been granted a pardon and stood up straight from the ground. They then saw the young man on the dragon throne ask, "Um... what's going on with the Wan family?"

'Ten thousand households? Which ten thousand households?'

Fang Can's words stunned all the court officials, who were momentarily speechless.

Prince Qing immediately realized what was going on and said, "You mean the Wan family that Wan Chenyu was with before we went to the capital? Their third-level patriarch was arrested by you three days ago."
