If you die, I will be able to inherit your cultivation.

Zhou Ming sat quietly in his tent for less than two hours when Dongmei rushed back to the central command tent, looking travel-worn.

The battle on the battlefield had just stabilized, and she still carried the lingering aura of killing intent, her armor stained with faint traces of blood.

Upon entering and seeing Zhou Ming sitting upright in the tent, Dongmei immediately glared at him, walked straight up to him, and launched into a barrage of questions.

"You actually know how to come back?"

"Tell me, why didn't you look for me when you came back last time? And the time before that?"

"If His Majesty hadn't said you'd returned, I wouldn't have known..."

Dongmei bombarded him with questions, leaving Zhou Ming momentarily speechless.

Left with no other choice, he could only smile and quietly watch her ask.

After a scolding, Dongmei saw Zhou Ming smiling at her, and a blush crept onto her cheeks.

She snorted coldly, turned around abruptly, and refused to look at Zhou Ming again.

When Zhou Ming saw her like this, he couldn't help but chuckle.

This laugh, however, completely enraged Dongmei, who was already somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.

Dongmei suddenly turned around, put her hands on her hips, and glared fiercely at Zhou Ming.

His anger was written all over his face, his expression seeming to warn, "Try smiling again."

Seeing Dongmei's expression, Zhou Ming immediately suppressed his smile and dared not grin anymore.

"Sister Dongmei, let me explain."

Zhou Ming didn't care about the other party's still angry gaze and recited the same explanation he had given to Su Mingyue earlier.

Dongmei slowly lowered her hands, which had been on her hips, as Zhou Ming spoke.

His expression gradually softened, and his gaze became gentler.

As she listened, she walked over and sat down opposite Zhou Ming, then raised her hand to pour him a cup of tea.

When Zhou Ming finished recounting the entire fabricated story, Dongmei's eyes widened once again.

"What's your cultivation level now? And did you really go to war with the Fox Clan and the Thunder Fang Tiger Clan?"

"Do you know that because of these two major battles, the entire Federation has been completely dismantled?"

"Huh? The Federation has disintegrated? What happened? Tell me in detail."

Zhou Ming was stunned upon hearing this, filled with doubt.

He had only destroyed two major clans; how could he allow the long-standing federation to fall apart like this?

Dongmei rolled her eyes at Zhou Ming and slowly began to recount the whole story.

"After you wiped out the Thunder Fang Tiger Clan, no one in the Federal Council spoke up."

"No race is willing to stand up for the Thunder Fang Tiger Clan; nobody wants to get burned."

"The Federal Parliament simply adjourned, and since then, it has never convened normally again."

"After that, each race shrank their sphere of influence and began to fight each other for territory and resources."

"The Federation later attempted to reconvene the legislature in an effort to mediate the conflicts between the various races."

"But less than half of the members of Congress attended the meeting. From that point on, the Union was effectively defunct."

After saying this, Dongmei carefully looked Zhou Ming up and down, trying to find some clues from him.

Zhou Ming, however, was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice Dongmei's scrutinizing gaze.

He never expected that the federation, which had been operating for tens of thousands of years and had a complete set of laws and systems, would be completely destroyed simply because of his two interventions.

He couldn't help but sigh to himself that all the power in this world is ultimately just a huge makeshift operation.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Ming raised his head, met Dongmei's gaze, and asked.

"Then why did you engage in a great war with the Gray Wolf Clan?"

"Of course it is. Most of the Spirit Void World is now turning into a wolf den."

"If we don't take the initiative soon, once the Canglang clan completely takes over the Lingxu World, we might not even have a chance to break out."

"How could the Azure Wolf Clan so easily invade the Spirit Void World? Are the humans of the Federation just going to sit idly by?" Zhou Ming was very curious.

The Federation is home to many races, but in terms of the number of cultivators and the population base, humans make up the vast majority.

Logically, a vast world like the Lingxu World, teeming with humanity, should not be allowed to be invaded by alien races.

"The human race of the Federation? Hmph, they can't even protect themselves right now." Dongmei took a sip of tea and continued.

"Over the years, the Federation's human race has used various pretexts to relocate large numbers of humans from various worlds to a few major worlds for centralized control."

"It is impossible to achieve perfection in migration. A large number of mortals and cultivators of the human race still remain in various old worlds."

"These remaining humans have now become targets for plunder and slaughter by numerous alien beasts."

"As a result, the Federation's human race engaged in a full-scale war with several powerful races."

"Therefore, we are now tightly bound by multiple forces and have no spare resources to attend to other matters."

"His Majesty, mindful of our shared human nature, intends to first seize the Spirit Void World, and then gradually expand to the surrounding worlds, thereby relieving the pressure on the Federation's human race."

"Well, we've only just started the war, and we've already run into you."

"Speaking of which, you really helped me a lot this time."

"With this victory, my future campaigns will go much more smoothly."

After Dongmei finished explaining the whole story, she changed the subject and began to praise Zhou Ming.

Upon hearing Dongmei's praise, Zhou Ming did not respond. He lowered his head and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

"Sister Dongmei, here's what I'll do. I'll go to the Canglang clan's lair later. You can prepare to take over the Lingxu World."

Zhou Ming couldn't wait any longer.

Hearing Dongmei say that the alien races were using humans as food, I felt a sharp pain in my heart.

These humans are all capable of cultivating the "Scripture of Salvation" in the future; they form the foundation of his cultivation.

"Really? That's wonderful!" Upon hearing this, Dongmei's face lit up with a smile, and all the weariness between her brows vanished.

In her mind, since Zhou Ming had said those words, he must be confident that he could completely expel the Canglang clan from the Spirit Void World.

She had no doubt about Zhou Ming's abilities.

He could annihilate even a powerful clan like the Thunder Fang Tiger Clan, so dealing with the Azure Wolf Clan should be an easy task for him.

"Go, I'll set off now." Zhou Ming stood up and was about to walk out of the tent.

"Wait, you don't want these things anymore?"

Zhou Ming, who had already reached the entrance of the camp, heard the call from behind, stopped and turned around.

Dongmei stood inside the tent, pointing to a pile of storage magic treasures stacked inside, her eyes fixed intently on Zhou Ming.

"No, I'll give them all to you," Zhou Ming replied decisively.

"Really?" Dongmei's eyes instantly curved into two crescent moons.

His eyes and brows beamed with joy, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up; his whole being radiated an irrepressible happiness.

Zhou Ming rolled his eyes as he looked at her.

"Of course it's true. Look at you, you greedy little thing. Hurry up and go." With that, he stepped out of the tent.

After leaving the main tent, Zhou Ming waited outside for a long time before seeing Dongmei walk out of the tent with a smile on her face.
