Gao Wu Da Qin: You don't want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 196 A Proclamation by Emperor Zhuanxu to Punish the Heavenly Thief

Donghai, Jianye City, top floor of the foundation headquarters building.

The lights in the main conference room were on from last night until the early hours of this morning.

The reason is simple: Qin Feng, the president of the foundation, has returned.

The first thing Qin Feng did upon returning was to hold a meeting with the six vice presidents. During the meeting, some guards heard stern reprimands being slammed on the table and chairs, accompanied by cries of pain. It was clear that the six vice presidents were being sexually harassed by President Qin Feng.

Finally, this morning, the two-day, two-night meeting came to an end.

Qin Feng sat in the president's seat, looking down at the six vice presidents with their heads drooping, and clapped, saying, "Cheer up! Get excited! Approach your work with enthusiasm!"

"You understand enthusiasm? Work hard, and I've already prepared year-end bonuses for everyone!"

"After finishing this last job of the year, we'll be just in time for the New Year! Everyone understands?"

The various bigwigs all stood up, replying, "Understood!"

Qin Feng said, "Everyone do your own thing, speed things up! We need to get moving, and we must be faster than the Celestials! Let's get this going, guys!"

The six vice presidents took their leave one after another, each carrying a thick stack of folders, as if Qin Feng had assigned each of them a heavy workload.

Qin Feng finally had a moment to himself. He was holding a cup of tea, but before he could even take a sip, a voice came from outside the door, "Reporting to the Chairman! Dongfang Laoying, the registrar of the General Affairs Office of the Foundation, requests an audience."

Qin Feng said, "Quickly, please invite them in!"

Old Dongfang won at the perfect time.

Qin Feng had previously inquired about the Youzhou army, but no one knew anything about it. No one knew how the matter came about, except that Dongfang Laoying said he had already been informed.

I didn't know that. You said you informed me?

Soon, a 600-pound fat man appeared in front of Qin Feng, and the fat man almost burst the door of his office.

Qin Feng stood up, looking at Dongfang Laoying with a worried expression. "Brother Dongfang, it's not that I have a problem with obese people, it's just that your size is somewhat damaging to public property."

Old Man Dongfang exclaimed with delight, "Brother Qin, you're finally back! If you hadn't come back, I don't know what I would have done! You saved my life!"

Qin Feng quickly steadied the swaying fat man, "What do you mean? You look perfectly fine! You're strong and healthy, yet you've gained even more weight!"

Dongfang Laoying said, "I'm in a real bind! I'm being held at knifepoint by that brute Zhang Zhi'en. If I don't fight the Celestial Army to the death, he'll kill me! You don't know, Zhang Zhi'en is a madman! He's completely insane! He's completely brainless now, he just wants to fight to the death to avenge his mother! But the problem is, he can't beat the Celestials at all, and he wants to take me with him..."

Qin Feng said, "If I bring you along, we can defeat the Celestials, right?"

Dongfang Laoying stiffly replied, "But, but I have no command authority! Although I can lead 200,000 troops, these soldiers are here for sightseeing, not for fighting! I promised my uncle that I would never let a single hair on the heads of these 200,000 troops fall. I've already made things very difficult for myself by managing to get to this point! I'm truly like a rat in a bellows, suffering from both sides!"

"The celestial beings despise me for my repeated betrayals and do not believe me!"

"Jang Ji-eun is a lunatic, completely unreasonable!"

"The only one left is Crown Prince Ao Cheng, who's always eyeing me! He's after my 200,000-strong army!"

"If you don't come back soon, I really don't know what I'll do!"

Qin Feng comforted Dongfang Laoying, "Brother Dongfang, I understand your kindness to me perfectly! If it weren't for your intervention, Zhang Zhi'en's troops would probably have been crushed by the Celestials, and we wouldn't be in this evenly matched situation today! Leave the rest of the battle to me; you and your Youzhou army can withdraw from the Underworld at any time!"

Dongfang Laoying said, "Really? That's great! But there's something! My uncle wants to see you."

Qin Feng laughed, "Your uncle? I'm not familiar with him!"

Dongfang Laoying said enthusiastically, "Once is stranger, twice is familiar! My uncle always praises you highly, saying that you are the only one in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods who can unify the eighteen blessed lands! He also told me to learn more from you!"

Qin Feng smiled without saying a word, thinking to himself, "It's not that I don't want to see your uncle, it's just that we have a grudge!"

Who is Dongfang Laoying's uncle, the King of Youzhou?

Others may not know, but Qin Feng does. On his way back, Qin Feng told the ancestors about what happened outside. When he mentioned the King of Youzhou, the ancestors guessed his identity with their toenails. He was the only descendant of the Sun True Lord, the last cowardly sun descendant after Da Yi shot down nine suns, the three-legged golden crow!

The King of Youzhou was a three-legged golden crow.

My teacher was Yi the Archer.

My teacher almost killed your whole family, and now you want to chat with me.

If you knew my teacher was Yi the Archer, you probably would have ordered the Youzhou army to turn against me!

Dongfang Laoying, unaware of Qin Feng's inner thoughts, assumed Qin Feng was feigning modesty, so he simply turned on his phone and connected to his uncle's contact information.

Soon, a life-size four-dimensional projection appeared in front of Qin Feng.

In a dark and imposing royal palace, a strange man, clad in a black royal robe and wearing a golden flaming crown, sat majestically on the throne, his voice booming, "Qin Feng, Chairman of the Foundation, it's an honor to meet you!"

Qin Feng politely clasped his hands in greeting and addressed Youzhou Wangdao, saying, "I have long admired the name of the Lord of Youzhou. It is an honor to meet you today."

The King of Youzhou seemed quite talkative. Perhaps because the sun represents sunshine, although his features were aloof, his smile was radiant. "I've heard my nephew talk about his prized classmate, who is the most outstanding coachman in the land. I didn't believe it before, but seeing him today, he is indeed extraordinary! I wonder what Chairman Qin's views are on the current situation?"

Qin Feng asked, "I wonder if Your Majesty is referring to the Underworld? Or the Martial World?"

The King of Youzhou laughed and said, "Of course it's the Journey to the World! The matter of the Underworld is just a minor incident, how much of a commotion can it cause? The Journey to the World, on the other hand, is a matter of utmost importance."

Qin Feng looked at the King of Youzhou, "Traveling the world is a matter of great importance. Currently, Master has not given me a specific target. If I have any news on this matter, I will inform Your Majesty in a timely manner!"

The King of Youzhou said with delight, "With Mr. Qin's words, I am relieved! Then I will not disturb Mr. Qin any longer. I will prepare a grand banquet in Youzhou and await the arrival of you, Master Qin!"

Qin Feng asked, "What about the King's Youzhou army?"

The King of Youzhou waved his sleeve generously, "Those 200,000 troops were a private army I gifted to my nephew. I told him I wouldn't interfere much. If he's capable, he can maintain the size of the 200,000-strong army; if not, he can simply incorporate them into the foundation! I, Youzhou, will not want them anymore!"

Qin Feng couldn't help but exclaim, "Your Majesty is truly magnificent! I admire you! However, the matter of the Underworld doesn't require the 200,000 troops of Youzhou. I alone am sufficient to quell the scourge upon Youzhou!"

The King of Youzhou became interested. "President Qin is indeed a young hero! What great ambition! But I am very curious, how will President Qin quell the calamity in Youzhou?"

Qin Feng chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, please just wait for good news! However, I, Qin Feng, will not use Your Majesty's 200,000 troops for nothing! After the matter of the Underworld is settled, Youzhou should have a share of the credit in terms of rewards and punishments. I hope Your Majesty will not refuse at that time."

The King of Youzhou was overjoyed. "Mr. Qin is willing to cede some of Youzhou's interests to me, so how could I possibly refuse! Mr. Qin is selfless and fair in his dealings. From now on, anyone who opposes Mr. Qin will be an enemy of Youzhou! Youzhou will be the Foundation's most reliable ally!"

Qin Feng cupped his hands in greeting. "I still have some trivial matters to attend to. I'll have another chance to drink and chat with Your Majesty and reminisce about our old times when the opportunity arises."

The King of Youzhou nodded, "Nephew, learn well from Young Master Qin! This is true skill! Young Master Qin, farewell!"

The scene faded away, and the King of Youzhou disappeared. Dongfang Laoying was extremely excited.

Dongfang Laoying may look chubby and a bit simple-minded, but he knows very well that his uncle can't sleep every night because of the Master Meng, and he's worried that Master Meng will punch him.

Now that we've gotten in touch with the driver, I doubt my uncle would be fatally punched.

Dongfang Laoying pulled Qin Feng by the shoulder, "Brother Qin is the best! Let's go for a drink, it's on me!"

Qin Feng hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, I have to rush to finish a manuscript, I really don't have time to drink with you! You should also hurry back to the Underworld and withdraw the 200,000 troops, lest the Celestials steal your Youzhou army's stronghold."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Laoying said with a hint of regret, "Well, I'll be going then. Have a drink later!"

Qin Feng laughed, "Okay, okay! Take care! I'll treat you to a big drink at the company's annual party."

Qin Feng saw Dongfang Laoying off, closed the doors and windows, and began to write his manuscript seriously.

Confucius said, “If a duke wishes to carry out his duties, he must first rectify his name, so that his actions can proceed smoothly.”

As the military strategist said, every action must have a just cause. Without a just cause, it is mostly petty squabbles and cannot be regarded as a noble cause or recorded in history.

Therefore, when a gentleman acts, especially in important matters, a good start is to announce it to the world, rather than secretly causing trouble behind the scenes.

The Celestials could secretly build a secret passage in the mountains behind the scenes to launch a sneak attack on Qin Feng.

However, Qin Feng would not launch a sneak attack on the Celestials from behind like that.

The reason is simple: it's not that Qin Feng is incapable of doing such a thing, but rather that since I clearly have the strength to crush you head-on, why would I resort to such underhanded tactics?

Two days and three nights passed, and Qin Feng's proclamation against the traitors, after being repeatedly examined by the various elders in the Arad Shrine, finally passed.

Qin Feng immediately held a press conference, which quickly went viral across major media platforms through the foundation and the intelligence network of the seven countries.

"[Breaking News] Qin Feng, the foundation president who disappeared for a year, has suddenly returned and issued a [Declaration of War Against the Celestials], the full text of which is as follows..."

"[Breaking News] Qin Feng, the president of the Foundation, has returned and issued a [Declaration of War], announcing that the Foundation's release signifies a complete break with the Celestials. The Foundation will consider all Celestials within the Underworld as enemies and will launch an attack!"

"[Breaking News] A spokesperson for the foundation declined to disclose any information related to the foundation's war efforts and asked viewers to pay close attention to the [Declaration of Punishment]. Below is the full video of Chairman Qin's [Declaration of Punishment]."

Exciting background music started playing on the screen, but instead, silhouettes of Qin Feng floated across the image screen.

It all started with a young high school photo, showing Qin Feng running at a sports meet, sweating profusely!

Soon after, they arrived in Xianyang, where they achieved remarkable success in the liberal arts college entrance examination!

Arriving at the martial arts exam site, the night was as dark as a curtain. Standing with my back to the ancient city of Xianyang, I felt as if I had become one with the sky and the earth.

Then came the Amazing Swan Competition, the Dragon Chase in Xianyang, the establishment of the Foundation, and the Fierce Battle of Jianye...

A series of brilliant edits combine to create an ultimate visual and auditory experience of showing off, with titles appearing in the edits at opportune moments.

[Junior Master of the School of Diplomacy] [Disciple of a Sage] [President of a Foundation] [Poet] [Literary Figure] [Writer] [Martial Artist] [Scientist]...

Finally, the screen focused on a handsome face. Qin Feng stood in front of the desk, wearing a black and red president's uniform. He faced the camera with a serious expression, and the silver ahoge on his forehead was now hidden.

Qin Feng looked at the screen and said in a clear voice, "Friends, I am Qin Feng from the Foundation. Recently, a lot has happened, and I will give a comprehensive response to these matters here."

"All content is contained in the 'Proclamation Against the Traitors: A Declaration of Justice for Humanity,' so please listen!"

"Even with the strength of the human race, it replaced the Shang dynasty and collapsed suddenly."

"The Zhou people's tyranny forced the young emperor to his death! Yet he declared himself emperor and plotted to conquer the world."

"However, weapons cannot ward off disaster, and sharp blades are insufficient to defend against danger!"

"The root cause lies in a lack of benevolence and righteousness!"

"Although the Zhou king called himself the Son of Heaven, he was in reality a Shang traitor, a usurper of the country. Taking advantage of the situation to seize power was the act of a petty person! His insubordination was a sign of disrespect for hierarchy! Using public office for private gain, he was a great thief of the world!"

"Therefore, the Zhou emperor, though called emperor, was in reality a thief! All those who associate with thieves are thieves themselves!"

"Among the thieves, the one who stands out is a celestial being, his crimes are clear!"

"He killed Wen Zhong, the Grand Tutor of King Zhou, at Jue Long Ridge! He sealed off Chaoge City, trapping King Zhou of Shang to death! He scattered the Nine Tripods of the world, claiming it was the will of Heaven! He oppressed the people, yet called it the will of Heaven and the law of Heaven!"

"Truly, he murdered the Grand Tutor, imprisoned the Emperor, stole the state, oppressed the people, stole the Nine Tripods, seized the Heavenly Realm, slaughtered the King of Men, burned the East Sea, plundered by trickery and force, married other men, exploited and extorted offerings, and sealed the Imperial Tomb! He prevented the human race and ancestral spirits from seeing him! He caused much suffering in the world and many calamities for the people. As the saying goes, the whole world is rotten, and the land is covered in dust!"

"A greedy fool, reaping the benefits of the eight temples without working!"

"Fierce wolves gather and howl across the fields!"

"The common people shed no tears, for they fear the wrath of Heaven and Man!"

"The people remained silent, fearing the might of that thunder!"

"Alas!"

"It is difficult for heaven and earth to lack loyal and virtuous sons!"

"Under the light of the sun and moon, are there any daredevils?"

"I, Qin, though unworthy, am willing to take on this responsibility and punish the traitors of heaven for the sake of the people!"

"Today, the world is in ruins, divided into seven kingdoms. Heavenly traitors plot to seize the world, and ambitious wolves emerge in droves. Celestials dominate the heavenly realm, devouring the underworld like snakes, slaughtering endlessly. Rotten branches and rotten ropes covet the authority of the underworld! Stealing the last breath of humanity!"

"How can Heaven know? Mountains and rivers have their masters, the sun and moon have their appointed times, and destiny is destined to return, which cannot be forced."

"In the past, Emperor Zhuanxu was the first to mention the underworld. With his great supernatural powers, he severed the connection between heaven and earth, and transformed the supercontinent of Pangu, which became a legendary tale!"

"Emperor Zhuanxu left Mount Buzhou specifically as the foundation of the human race's underworld, but the Heavenly Thief secretly instigated conflict between the gods of water and fire. The fire god Zhurong was tricked by the Heavenly Thief and defeated the water god. Under the Heavenly Thief's instigation, the water god destroyed Mount Buzhou! From then on, Emperor Zhuanxu's plans were ruined by the Heavenly Thief!"

"In order to manipulate the fate of the Underworld, the Heavenly Thief went so far as to plot and kill the Goddess of Stars, Doumu, and sacrifice Houtu, one of the Twelve Ancestral Witches, finally completing this hole in the Underworld. However, the Heavenly Thief stole all the credit from these two great gods!"

"Observing these two great emperors, Doumu has the ambition of Pangu, and Houtu has the actions of Nuwa. Both of you are willing to follow this path, transforming yourselves into the underworld, truly making you saints of the human race!"

"The Heavenly Thief stole the Sage's merits first, and now he wants to rule over the Sage's people! How outrageous! Utterly despicable!"

"This treacherous scoundrel, with his cunning and scheming, presumptuously usurps the mandate of heaven, now accusing me, Qin Feng, of defying the world! He can't distinguish right from wrong, black from white! He's utterly audacious!"

"The Heavenly Thieves pacified the Underworld with violence, yet now they accuse me, Qin Feng, of ruining this peaceful and prosperous era. This is utterly absurd!"

"Such a blatant distortion of right and wrong, unrepentant, advocating violence, trampling on public order, and using conspiracies to quell the wicked, who would submit? Who could submit?"

"Qin, with his impregnable fortress, vows to defend the underworld. Guided by the teachings of our human ancestors, he forges long halberds to ward off attacks, his fierce steeds chase the wind while his soldiers bring rain, and his giant oars cleave the waves while his tall sails blot out the sun!"

"Today, the Heavenly Thieves, leading a million troops, have invaded our human race's Netherworld. Despite our repeated warnings, we have been slandered!"

"Do you not know that the Qin people are numerous, existing among the human race, among the seven states, and among all the people of the world!"

"With the people of the world by my side, we will win every battle!"

"The Yanhuang tribe has had one ruler for ten thousand generations!"

"The Yanhuang tribes, united as one, rely on the divine power of Yanhuang to eliminate traitors and vanquish villains—this very day will come!"

"All men of ambition in the world should harness the power of heaven and earth, wield their finest steeds, and venture into the realm of the dead to restore the rule of the human king!"

"I raise high the banner of the King of Men, proclaiming to the six directions and eight wastelands, to the seven kingdoms and the world, to condemn the traitor of Heaven, and to join together in this grand undertaking!"

"Once the royal army strikes, you treacherous traitors, how can you possibly survive tomorrow?"

"..."
