Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

She maintained her smile as much as possible and praised him without feeling embarrassed at all.

"Lord Mu's cultivation is extraordinary, and every word and action reveals a return to simplicity and authenticity. Yunwei admires you greatly..."

"What Duke Shen said is very true. Commander Mu's cultivation is unparalleled, and his heart is devoted to the common people. He turned the tide in Wangliu City and saved millions of people in Donghua Prefecture. He is truly a model for our time and his name should be sung for eternity..."

Jun Cheng'an echoed him, showering Mu An with compliments, practically praising him to the skies.

Mu An didn't care about these compliments. Putting aside the pretense, at his current level, he no longer needed such boring formalities.

Great power resides within its own world; true strength is the greatest source of confidence.

It's true that the Great Qi Dynasty has a strong foundation, but if it really comes down to a fight, even if he went to Qi'an City, he wouldn't get away with it.

But outside Qi'an City, there are few in the world stronger than him.

Mu An no longer needs to flatter anyone; doing whatever he wants is no longer a luxury for him.

Mu An looked at Jun Cheng'an and asked directly, "Stop with the useless nonsense, just tell me, how many terrestrial immortals do we have here? How much power can you mobilize to fight against the demon race?"

Interrupted, Jun Cheng'an's face stiffened. He hesitated for a while before whispering.

"The Northern Guardian, True Man Luoshuang; the Buddhist Arhat, Master Wuming; the Blessed Immortal, Lin Daofu; and then there is Commander Mu, you."

Mu An frowned slightly. Although he had expected it, he had also sensed the locations of the other land immortals in the city.

But hearing these words spoken by Emperor Jun Cheng'an himself, he was still somewhat speechless.

So you really don't have any trump cards to play?

The mighty Emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty, the emperor of the strongest empire of the human race, actually only managed to summon so few people.

He glanced at Jun Cheng'an with disdain, making no attempt to hide the contempt in his eyes.

"Where are your two ancestors? Where is Meng Yanren? And the Tiger Legion, the Seven Kill Legion, the Heavenly Constellation Legion... where have they all gone?"

At the city gate, Jun Cheng'an's face was extremely ugly after being rebuked, and Shen Yunwei beside him barely managed to suppress her laughter.

She had wanted to curse for a long time; the emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty had become such a disgrace!

However, considering that she was still nominally a subject, considering the safety of the northern border, and considering that she was a civilized person who should observe etiquette, Shen Yunwei kept her emotions hidden in her heart.

Right now, Mu An's rapid-fire questions were making Shen Yunwei feel incredibly pleased.

That stupid emperor is completely incompetent!

To be able to wage a war like this and cause so much trouble, I don't know how their brains are structured.

Jun Cheng'an remained unmoved. He knew what was more important than what was less important. Being scolded was a minor matter; gaining Mu An's support was the most important thing right now.

Things have gotten to this point, and it's long out of his control, but it's not really that bad and beyond repair.

Or perhaps, he had envisioned the scenario of defeat even before the war began.

On the contrary, Mu An's appearance was indeed beyond his expectations.

"Neither of the two ancestors can come. On the one hand, it's because of the restrictions of the dragon vein; the price they need to pay to open Ancheng is too high. On the other hand, Commander Mu should know this."

Mu An was somewhat surprised. "Know what?"

Jun Cheng'an gave a wry smile and looked at Mu An.

"My throne was hard-won, and you, Commander Mu, should know this best. Although this is the first time we have met today, we have exchanged many letters before."

My ninth sister, who died young, left behind a mess. During the two years she helped my third brother seize the throne, countless people suffered inexplicable disasters.

In the year following her death, disasters struck the entire Great Qi Dynasty, and people died daily in Qi'an City from various accidents. Even the two royal ancestors did not fare well.

As he spoke, Jun Cheng'an's gaze became somewhat resentful, as if he were not the emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty, but a resentful woman in her boudoir, filled with resentment towards her fate.

"After a series of events, the two ancestors of the royal family believe that I was the one who insisted on seizing the throne and caused all of this, and they still refuse to give me a kind look."

Hearing this for the first time, Mu An was also a little surprised.

When Princess Yongning passed away, he was far less powerful than he is now, and his information channels were not as readily available.

He really didn't know what had happened in Qi'an City at that time.

Mu An found it strange at that time. Princess Yongning was so special, how could she leave this world so quietly?

From Mu An's current perspective, Jun Yunxin clearly exists in the world in a form similar to a reincarnation, forcibly altering the laws of the world and bestowing upon herself an unbelievably vast amount of heaven and earth fortune.

Tian Sheng Mountain is more like a high-dimensional projection, distorting countless rules and projecting them into this world, firmly anchoring itself to this realm.

Looking back now, it seems that quite a few things probably happened back then, but he just didn't know it.

Upon closer examination, Mu An felt that whether the karmic ties between him and Princess Yongning had truly been severed was also a questionable issue.

Such a cause and effect is probably not so easy to resolve.

Princess Yongning's generous legacy allowed Mu An to quickly pass through the "novice period" and meet the basic requirements for using the Book of Creation.

In a sense, Mu An's initial resources for cultivation all came from Princess Yongning and the royal family. The extent to which their karmic entanglements had spread was something even he couldn't be sure of now.

At this moment, listening to Jun Cheng'an resentfully recount these things, Mu An truly felt a strange sense of disorientation.

Jun Cheng'an was unaware of Mu An's thoughts. After resentfully recounting his ancestor's actions, he continued answering Mu An's other questions, his words filled with helplessness.

"Commander Mu has met Meng Yan. As the leader of the literary path, who is given the title of 'Sage of Literature' and ranked seventh in the world, Meng Yan has amazing talent and formidable strength in the literary path."

But in my humble opinion, his virtue is completely unworthy of his title. His thoughts and actions are all selfish and self-serving, and he has never considered the people of the world in the slightest...

Although Meng Yan was my former teacher, we are irreconcilable enemies. I even suspect that he was responsible for the attacks on me by the Demon Saint of the Demon Clan and the Demon Lord of the Yin Extreme Domain a few years ago.
