Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

When the battle at the Tower of Compassion ended, a high-level meeting of the Poetic Heavenly City was also held.

Xiao Jiandun's return, apart from the Heavenly Venerable Emperor Yin giving him a warm hug, did not bring joy to the other elders.

On the contrary, because Xiao Jiandun stood on the side of the invaders from the Bitter Realm, the elders of the clan were extremely cold towards him, especially when they saw the seriously injured Blazing Crimson Scale, the elders were furious.

The Dragon Emperor did not attend this meeting; it was presided over by the Heavenly Venerable Emperor Yin.

In addition to the Imperial Dragon Clan, the attendees included elders from the Pure Dragon Clan and the Prison Dragon Clan, as well as representatives from the Joyful Sacred Clan.

As the mother clan of the Blazing Crimson Scale, the Pure Dragon Clan strongly demanded that troops be sent to the Tower of Compassionate Light to drive out the invaders from the Kingdom of Death and the Bitter Realm.

"The dignity of the Heavenly Realm cannot be trampled upon, and the four borders are brotherly nations. We beseech the Heavenly Venerable to immediately dispatch troops!"

"Now that they've already reached our feet, if we don't send troops now, are we just going to wait for them to climb our towers?"

Ever since the Holy Lord Shang Fengyue fled, the Yue Sheng Clan has been unable to hold their heads high in the Poetic Heavenly City. In this situation, it's enough to express their attitude.

"Seconded."

The Heavenly Venerable Emperor asked the elders of the Prison Dragon Clan, "What are your opinions?"

The Prison Dragon Clan is an even more warlike race than the Pure Dragon Clan, and surprisingly, they remained silent for a long time during today's meeting.

When asked by the Celestial Venerable, the elder of the Prison Dragon Clan replied, "I second that."

"Ok?"

Heavenly Venerable Emperor Yin then asked his clan representative, Xiao Jiandun, "Azure-eyed Silver Rong, you are more familiar with the situation in the Bitter Realm and the Kingdom of Death. What are your thoughts?"

Xiao Jiandun bowed and replied, "Heavenly Venerable, I have been away from Poetic Heavenly City for a long time and am not aware of the current state of combat strength. However, it is a fact that my second brother is no match for Asura, and Rahu's foundation is even stronger than Asura's. If we were to attack, who could stand against us?"

"this?"

"Leaving aside the support from the Bitter Realm, the Kingdom of the Dead still has the Heavenly Ones, the Earthly Ones, and the Sons of Gods. More importantly, this war will take place in the Four Realms of the Dead, and I fear that once the flames of war are ignited, the Four Realms of the Dead will be reduced to scorched earth."

Chapter 125 Sit Down and Divide the Loot

To wage war on home soil, one must have the courage to accept the loss of everything.

Crimson Scale's maternal uncle slammed his fist on the table: "Are we just going to swallow this insult like this? We might as well fight our way to the Bitter Realm!"

Xiao Jiandun spoke sincerely and earnestly: "As far as I know, all foreign forces that have entered the Bitter Realm have returned defeated."

"Blue-eyed Silver Rong, you've forgotten your own stance!"

"I'm sorry, but the Azure-Eyed Silver Warrior has never forgotten the responsibilities of the Five Dragons of the Heavenly Empire: to apprehend evildoers, guard criminals, and uphold justice."

"Now that the alien realm has invaded the Four Realms, where is your justice?"

Xiao Jiandun dropped a bombshell: "For hundreds of years, the Tower of Compassionate Light has intercepted the Four Heavenly Sources, causing environmental pollution on the Slaughter Island and resource depletion in the Fire House and Buddha Prison, resulting in immense suffering for the people of both realms."

"what!"

"The Celestial Venerable once personally went to the Tower of Compassionate Light to investigate."

The elders stared at the Heavenly Venerable Emperor Yin in shock: "What exactly is going on?"

The Heavenly Venerable Emperor Yin said with a grave expression, "What the Azure-Eyed Silver Rong said is correct. I went to the Tower of Compassionate Light to investigate several months ago, and the details are as follows..."

"The Lord of the Mi Realm actually did such a thing, how despicable!"

"What I worry about is that when the four Heavenly Sources are further depleted, the Lord of the Extinction Realm will close the Heavenly Sources of the two lower realms to maintain the status quo of the Tower of Compassionate Light."

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly shifted, and even the most resolute members of the Pure Dragon Clan began to berate the Lord of the Realm.

The two elders of the Hell Dragon Clan remained calm and composed.

The Divine Clan of Yue Sheng naturally wouldn't express their opinions.

At the end of the meeting, Xiao Jiandun conveyed Luo Hou's message: "The Martial Lord invites the Heavenly Venerable to the Tower of Compassionate Light for a gathering. He will convene a post-war conference, and all victorious nations will receive benefits from the Tower of Compassionate Light."

Emperor Yin of the Heavenly Venerable frowned: "I haven't seen the Martial Lord for a long time, and we should go and meet, but what does the Victorious Nation mean by this?"

"Wu Jun said that Poetic Heaven City has a clear understanding of right and wrong and has not made enemies of the Kingdom of Death and the Bitter Realm. Second Brother's actions were merely his personal ones and do not affect the friendly relations between the various realms. Therefore, Poetic Heaven City can also participate in the distribution of post-war benefits."

"Yes, Lord Wu is right. Does the victorious nation refer to the Bitter Realm, the Realm of Death, and the Upper Heaven Realm?"

Xiao Jiandun guessed, "There should be a massacre that shatters the island."

"The allocation of the four countries... I understand. You may go and rest now."

"Resign."

After Xiao Jiandun left, Tianzun Huangyin instructed his subordinates to bring him a map of the Tower of Compassionate Light.

Then, a lively discussion broke out in the conference room again.

Rahu stood atop the Tower of Compassionate Light, overlooking the vast land.

South of the capital lies Nanxing Plain, which can be developed into a pasture.

"In February and March, the grass on the plains begins to turn green. Children ride oxen, carrying flutes and straw raincoats."

North of the capital is Wansong Valley, where useful timber is planted and animals can be raised in the forest.

There is a wide river running east to west, meandering for a thousand miles, which would be a good place to develop fisheries.

Apart from the capital, two sizable markets were formed around Xiushilin and Poor Shilin.

If these two markets are properly developed, the teaching staff expanded, and more disciples recruited, they might become a trading center and an education center for the Four Realms.

People are the foundation of a nation.

If we could capture all the elites of the Four Realms, cultivate martial arts, conduct scientific research, and develop some cutting-edge technologies, then who would fear the depletion of the Heavenly Source?

Aside from the realm of suffering, the Tower of Compassion is indeed the most beautiful and prosperous of all the countries. I thank the Lord of the Realm and the Master Without Robes.

How did those victorious nations sit down and hold a meeting back then?

Yes, the key is that it established China's status as one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council.

It's time to go and fetch King Jiwu.

Despite his joyful journey, when he arrived at Maha Qian, he was surprised to find that King Jiwu was nowhere to be seen, and Rahu stopped in his tracks.

However, Huang Quan and Cui Luo Han rushed over.

Huang Quan exclaimed excitedly, "Hey, we've discovered the reason why the women of Broken Island can't have children: it's water pollution!"

"Ah."

Cui Luohan corrected Huang Quan: "The tree is sick and is excreting a toxic substance that pollutes the water source, which in turn damages the woman's body."

"Can it be cured?"

"Drinking clean water can help eliminate toxins from the body in as little as three to five months, or as long as three to five years, and restore the body's ability to conceive."

"The young lady's medical skills are indeed extraordinary."

Luo Hou glanced at Huang Quan and thought, "That brat is lucky."

Huang Quan, oblivious to everything, kept pressing for details of the battle: "How many people did you kill? How many did Ashura kill? Did Xiao Jian Dun participate?"

"Where is King Jiwu?"

"He is directing the removal of those diseased trees, but many people are trying to stop him, and some are even throwing stones at him."

How did he respond?

Cui Luohan revealed an appreciative expression: "After killing a few and arresting a batch, the crowd dispersed."

"better."

Beneath the mask, Luo Hou revealed a smile.

"Yellow Spring."

"Ok?"

“We have been away from the Bitter Realm for many days. There may be some changes in the heavens. After dealing with the matter of the Tower of Compassion, I will return to the Bitter Realm. You stay here.”

"What! It's me again!"

"Let the young lady stay with you; the women on Broken Island still need her treatment."

Huang Quan was furious: "I refuse!"

"Because you're the person I trust most."

"Even a blunt sword will do!"

“He is a man of the poetic city, and once his relatives put pressure on him, he will inevitably find himself in a dilemma.”

Cui Luohan tugged at Huang Quan's sleeve and gently advised, "We finally conquered the Tower of Compassion. Do you want to let Wu Jun's hard work go to waste? Besides, the situation in the Four Realms is complicated. No one but Wu Jun and you can shoulder this responsibility."

"but……"

"Do you intend to leave Wu Jun here while we return to the Bitter Realm ourselves?"

"Forget it... Let's make this clear first, if I get annoyed, I'll go back to Tiandu."

"can."

Having dealt with Huang Quan, Luo Hou was in an even better mood: "Young Miss, go and inform King Ji Wu to come to the Tower of Compassion for a meeting."

A meeting has started.

Representatives from the victorious nations gathered together.

Distress: Luohou, Huangquan.

The Land of the Dead: Asuras, Demon Prison Evil Gods.

Poetic Heavenly City: Heavenly Venerable Emperor's Descendant, Elder of the Pure Dragon Clan.

Slaughtering the Island: King Jiwu, Fu Yingnu (newly promoted strategist).

Host: Blue-eyed Silver Rong.

In the conference room, a huge map of the Tower of Compassion hangs on the wall, depicting lush grasslands, verdant mountains, shimmering rivers, and majestic cities.

It's truly a land flowing with milk and honey.

Laughing Sword traced the map with his blunt finger: "Divided into four parts based on terrain features: Nanxing Plain, Wansong Valley, Wuyue River, and Ciguang Tower. The first three are roughly the same size. Although Ciguang Tower has no resources, it possesses the Four Heavenly Sources. I wonder how you all would choose?"

The Evil God of Ghost Prison spoke first: "We want Nanxing Plain to raise cattle!"
