One person established a clan

Chapter 420 General
Several days have passed quietly—

The city under Dugu Yue's rule underwent earth-shattering changes under the baptism of spiritual energy.

The soldiers under his command improved their cultivation levels rapidly, and within just two or three days, reports of victories came back from the front lines one after another.

"It's really good."

Holding the detailed battle report, Su Cheng nodded in approval repeatedly.

The speed and thoroughness of the implementation of this plan far exceeded expectations.

Dugu Yue had already controlled nearly one-third of the territory, and the remaining territory was gradually recovered under the unstoppable offensive of the high-spirited 'Moon King Army'.

The foreign armies collapsed almost immediately, utterly powerless to resist the Moon King's army. The battle reports were densely filled with the names of the newly conquered territories.

"Miss Dugu has really had a hard time."

A fragrant breeze caressed her face as Wen Qimeng leaned on Su Cheng's shoulder, curiously examining the contents of the dossier. "So many battles have been fought in such a short time."

Su Cheng chuckled: "Don't forget, they are beings from the Dark Realm, unlike humans who have many physical limitations."

"what"

Wen Qimeng playfully stuck out her tongue. The creatures she had seen in the Dark Domain over the past few days looked no different from ordinary women, and their speech and behavior were very similar to those of humans. She had almost forgotten about this.

"However, why did they compile the battle reports into a book, and even write them in human script?"

"It was that girl's request."

A clear, cool female voice drifted over, drawing the attention of the two people.

Eleven, dressed in a black robe, still had a cold expression, but he held two simple bowls of porridge in his hands.

Su Cheng and Wen Qimeng were both slightly surprised.

Su Cheng and Wen Qimeng were both slightly surprised. They had been staying in the royal palace for several days, and their daily lives were usually taken care of by Xuan'er. It was rare to see Eleven like this.
"Eleventh Miss, did you make this?"

".Um."

Eleven said calmly, "Sometimes the girls are stationed at the front line, and Fan You is also assisting them. There's no need for me to be on guard anymore, so I've come back to take care of you."

Su Cheng's eyes flickered slightly, then he smiled gently: "Thank you for your trouble. It's a good opportunity to try your cooking."

A hint of tenderness flashed in Eleven's eyes as he handed the bowls and spoons to the two of them, then continued his conversation:

"That girl had long intended to gradually bring the creatures under her command in the Dark Domain closer to the human race, combining the advantages of both races."

These battle reports were not only sent back to the rear to reassure you, but were also specially preserved for historical records.

Wen Qimeng listened with a look of amazement.

"Miss Dugu is truly remarkable, governing this country so effectively."

These things are fundamental to the human race, but for the creatures of the Dark Realm, they are unprecedented.

It could even be said that she was the first ruler in millions of years to intentionally merge the Dark Realm with the Five Desolate Civilizations—

Instead of focusing solely on destruction and tyranny.

"She is still very young."

Eleven gently stroked her skirt and sat down beside the two of them, saying calmly, "But she is not stupid; she knows how to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and seek change."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "It's all thanks to you for giving her guidance before. Hmm?"

Before he could finish speaking, he looked down at the porridge in his bowl, his face showing surprise.

I just took a bite, and it tasted surprisingly good.
"How does it taste?"

"Very good." Su Cheng said with great interest, "You used to have time to do these things?"

He thought that his adoptive mother was so engrossed in cultivation that she was busy saving the world after becoming emperor that she had no interest in such mundane tasks.

did not expect.
"I've studied it a little bit."

Eleven's tone softened slightly.

Seeing the two chatting as if it were nothing out of the ordinary, Wen Qimeng narrowed her eyes, her curiosity growing even stronger.

During her quiet stay in the palace these past few days, she still didn't know much about this senior, only that he was indeed aloof.

Only in front of her husband would she occasionally reveal a hint of gentleness that was barely perceptible.

Is this liking, affection, or some other emotion?
Wen Qimeng pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. She just felt that Eleven's attitude towards her husband was really intriguing.

Her husband's reaction was also somewhat subtle; he spoke softly and affectionately.
"correct."

Wen Qimeng winked playfully. "With the help of my husband these past two days, Sister Fu and I have been comprehending the origin of chaos and have gained a lot. Would Eleventh Miss like to give it a try too?"

"I don't need to."

"Don't be so quick to refuse!"

Wen Qimeng moved closer, smiling, and said, "This way, I'll have more opportunities to spend time with my husband!"

Eleven was slightly taken aback.

Su Cheng chuckled and lightly flicked Qi Meng's forehead: "Don't talk nonsense, Eleven, she..."

His gaze shifted to Eleven beside him, only to be surprised to find her ears slightly red and a hint of unease crossing her cool, jade-like face.

As if sensing the gaze falling on her face, she subtly brushed her hair aside and lowered her eyelids.

"Now that I can see this kid, I'm not going to fight with you little girls over him."

"Oh dear, that's not frank."

Wen Qimeng smiled and was about to make a few more teasing remarks when she suddenly sensed several auras approaching.

"They seem to be Dugu's soldiers?"

Outside the royal court, several dark figures streaked across the sky.

"—Does Su Cheng truly possess such charm that he could bewitch His Majesty the Moon King to such an extent!?"

The leader of the dark figures asked in a low voice, "I've only been stationed at the border for a few months, how come she's become so strange?"

Thinking of Dugu Yue's recent words and actions, as well as the human women accompanying her, she couldn't help but feel resentful.

How can a king of a region be so lacking in self-respect!
Even though Su Cheng and those humans from other regions brought opportunities, and even brought a chance for change to the entire Dark Domain.

But there's no need for His Majesty to get involved personally!
"General, please calm down!"

The several dark figures accompanying him looked somewhat embarrassed and anxious. "His Majesty the Moon King and His Majesty the Prince Cheng are mutually in love. Your return to the court for rest must not cause any conflict, otherwise—"

"Don't worry, I'm not so ungrateful." The voice from within the shadows grew even deeper. "But I haven't yet recognized this man's claim to the throne. I want to see just what he's capable of to be on par with His Majesty!"

"This"

Several dark figures exchanged glances, all drenched in cold sweat. Thinking of the potential conflict, they desperately wanted to report to His Majesty immediately and summon the general back to the front lines.

But then I thought, perhaps His Majesty has other plans for ordering the general back to court?

With their own thoughts, both sides quickly entered the royal court and headed straight for the palace.

Seeing this, the maids knew there was no way to avoid it, and hurriedly said, "General, when you meet His Majesty Prince Cheng, it would be best to transform into human form to avoid any misunderstanding—"

"I wouldn't be so impolite as to be rude."

The shadowy figure spoke in a somber tone. Although she hadn't learned these so-called human etiquettes very long ago.

However, since she and Dugu Yue both came from royal families, she was naturally not as old-fashioned and conservative as Dugu Yue.

In the past six months, she has also learned some ways of dealing with people and applied them to territorial disputes, achieving numerous military exploits.

call--

The dark figure suddenly descended, its body surrounded by surging black mist, quickly transforming into a tall, slender figure.

Until it crashed to the ground, the black armor clanged, and the eerie boots kicked up dust, gleaming with a dark light.

His dark cloak fluttered in the wind, vaguely outlining his mature and agile physique beneath his armor. A strand of long hair cascaded down from behind his helmet, falling to the ground like a waterfall.

"."

The female general lowered her head, clenched her fist coldly, and her gauntlets made a crisp clinking sound.

Feeling the unfamiliar human body she was in, she gave a cold snort. "What a burden."

With such a soft and weak appearance, how can they be compared to their true forms? In a battle, they would probably not even be able to unleash half of their strength, making them utterly useless.

Especially the so-called chest area; as soon as you lower your head, your naked-eye view is completely blocked, and as soon as you move, even the armor can barely hold you up.
An absolute burden.

"Learning from human civilization is fine, but why imitate their appearance and physique?"

The female general sighed helplessly, turned her head and saw that several maids had also appeared, and said coldly, "Alright, you all stay here, I will go to see that man alone."

"No!"

A maidservant hurriedly spoke up, meeting the general's cold gaze without fear, and said in a deep voice, "To avoid any conflict, we must also go along."

".good."

The female general narrowed her dark, sharp eyes.

This was the first time she had ever realized that Dugu Yue's servants had such audacity to contradict her.

Was it because Dugu Yue had given a death order, or was it because of that human male?
In a flash, she strode out and soon entered the front courtyard of the palace.

"."

Su Cheng had just finished clearing away the dishes for Eleven when he turned around and was met with that icy, piercing gaze, causing him to frown slightly.

Is this the general who was sent back from the front lines?
He remembered clearly that Dugu Yue had mentioned several of his right-hand men, one of whom was the 'Black General'.

The two were close in age and both came from royal families; their relationship had been good for thousands of years.

I thought this meeting would be amicable, but it turned out to be so menacing.

"Be careful."

Shiyi frowned slightly, instinctively wanting to stand in front of Su Cheng, but Wen Qimeng gently tugged at her sleeve.

"you"

"Shh." Wen Qimeng pulled her a few steps back and whispered, "Let your husband handle it himself, we don't need to interfere."

"but"

"Oh, what are you worried about?"

Wen Qimeng's smile became more mischievous: "With my husband's abilities, what woman can't he win over?"

eleven:"."

A cold wind swept through the courtyard, and a maid quietly spoke, breaking the silence:
"Your Majesty King Cheng."

She bowed respectfully and said, "This is General Hei from the front lines. His Majesty the Moon King sent her back to the city so that she could be nourished by the spiritual energy of the immortal veins and increase her cultivation."

"Easy to say."

Su Cheng smiled gently: "You can all go down now. I'll keep an eye on things here, nothing will happen."

"Yes." The maids bowed and quietly withdrew.

General Black caught a glimpse of this scene and frowned secretly.

Just as she had expected, these maids were completely captivated by this human man, and even willingly considered themselves his slaves.

What abilities does this person possess to be able to do this?
"So you are General Black?"

Su Cheng walked over with a smile: "Yue'er once mentioned you, praising you as a good general and a good commander. It is because of your help that she has been able to rise to this position in just a few decades."

Moon. Child?
A chill ran through General Hei's eyes.

If she remembered correctly, this should be an extremely affectionate term of address in human culture.

"Excellent."

She spoke coldly, her voice low and hoarse, carrying a hint of murderous intent. "As for you, I had never heard her mention you half a year ago, but now you sit on the throne of the royal court, and in the blink of an eye you have become the so-called Prince Cheng."

As she spoke, she looked up at the sky where the light shimmered.

"Just because you brought spiritual energy?"

"That's it."

Su Cheng chuckled lightly: "If you don't mind, young lady, I can help you cultivate together and improve your cultivation level as soon as possible."

General Black's eyes grew even colder as he stared intently at the man before him.

The two were of similar height, but their auras were completely different.

".Um?"

She thought she could use her intimidation to force the other party to back down, but unexpectedly, the situation became a stalemate.

General Hei pondered to himself. This person does indeed possess some cultivation.
When she thought of the meaningful smile Dugu Yue had given Su Cheng not long ago, she quickly put away her contempt.

"You are not weak."

General Black said in a cold tone, "But if you want me to willingly call you king, then show me your true abilities. If you can defeat me, I will naturally pledge my loyalty to you."

Su Cheng smiled. This was indeed a straightforward woman.

"can."

He smiled and extended his right hand. "We can't fight here properly, and a rash battle could easily affect the royal court. How about we clash directly with our divine senses?"

General Hei's brows furrowed. "You should know that our physical bodies are merely a burden. If it comes to fighting with divine sense, we beings of the Dark Realm have the upper hand—"

“I know.” Su Cheng’s smile held a hint of arrogance. “That’s why I’m going to use this to make you truly convinced.”

"."

General Hei was stunned for a moment, but he had already nodded inwardly.

She despised those weak and lowly creatures. The reaction of this person before her at least proved that he was not a so-called vassal.

"According to the rules of your human race, I will stop when I've made my move."

The Black General spoke coldly, reaching out to shake his hand tightly. "If you are accidentally injured, I will take responsibility for healing you."

Su Cheng chuckled and said, "You're quite kind."

General Hei did not reply. Instead, he closed his eyes and rapidly unleashed his divine sense, which surged forth like a torrent of thousands of soldiers, crashing violently into Su Cheng's body!

Om-!
In an instant, an invisible, chilling gust of wind burst forth within the royal court, instantly drawing surprised glances from all sides.

Wen Qimeng was secretly amazed upon seeing this. "This woman's cultivation is truly formidable!"

"She's not much less capable than Xiaoyue."

Eleven spoke in a cold voice, but the worry between his brows quickly dissipated.

She knew that the outcome of the battle between the two sides had already been decided.

"Well!"

In a short while, it seemed as if they had already exchanged thousands of blows in the dark, and the Black General suddenly trembled.

She released her grip as if electrocuted, took two steps back, and looked at Su Cheng with an incredibly complicated expression.

"What's the outcome?"

Su Cheng smiled and withdrew his hand. "If you're not satisfied, I can continue to play along."

General Black let out a long sigh: "I have lost."

Seeing her readily admit defeat, Su Cheng nodded secretly. No wonder Dugu Yue brought this person up; he was indeed worthy of her attention.
"Ok?"

Before he could react, he saw the Black General tear off his armor, remove all his armor in the blink of an eye, and kneel on one knee wearing only a close-fitting black veil.

“Your Majesty, may I be punished?”

"."

Looking at the raging waves that even the black veil couldn't contain, Su Cheng's eyes twitched, and the playful smile on Dugu Yue's face as she left suddenly flashed into his mind.

She did it on purpose.
