Five hundred years of stacked Q, this one Q, unique and unparalleled throughout eternity!

Tomorrow we'll move to the capital together, and your job from now on will be to manage the Juying Pavilion, which is under the jurisdiction of the Otherworld Management Committee.

Chapter Seventy-Nine: Head Maid of the Palace!

The magic train slowly came to a stop, and as the magic light faded, the magnificent city before Luo Tian was finally fully revealed.

This is a massive city. Of all the cities Luo Tian has ever seen, only the Undying City can barely compare to it.

Unlike the magnificent walls of the Undead City, forged from bones, the city before them was entirely composed of obsidian, the hardest form of rock in the Stellar Plane.

The stones, imbued with anti-magic properties, were piled up in great quantities, making them difficult even for a fourth-realm transcendent to breach. This is how the magnificent city wall came to be.

However, such walls are not entirely indestructible. The massive accumulation of obsidian makes the walls a forbidden zone for magic, and even a holy archmage cannot inscribe formations on them.

In a sense, this magnificent city, while possessing unparalleled defensive capabilities, has compressed its offensive and counter-attack methods to the extreme, making it merely a giant black tortoise shell.

Looking at the city wall, which was full of dark humor, Luo Tian remained silent.

With a giant demonic sword dragging in his right hand and a knight in his left, Luo Tian walked out of the train station amidst the crowded throng.

Yin Qianyu and Wei Gusi had already arrived in the capital yesterday, and the original plan was to take Luo Tian with them on the same day.

Luo Tian originally intended to go along as well, but the problem was that Ivy was still staying at the Mingcheng Guesthouse.

If Luo Tian and Yin Qianyu travel together, there will be no time to notify Ivania. If this nun who can't find herself might cause some trouble.

Therefore, Luo Tian had to set aside a day to notify Ivynia to go to the capital under the pretext of finishing up the work, so that things could be handled completely and thoroughly.

In fact, while handling the whole matter, Luo Tian always felt a sense of guilt when facing Yin Qianyu.

After all, Yin Qianyu was his wife in name only. There was always a sense of moral and conscience that he was secretly having an affair with Ivyia behind Yin Qianyu's back.

Luo Tian even considered whether he should act like a gentleman and give up on Ivynia.

However, after a deep self-examination, Luo Tian suddenly realized something.

He's already two-timing, yet he's still agonizing over who he's wronged. Isn't that the typical behavior of a classic impotent, gentle male protagonist in Japanese anime?

Luo Tian had always despised this kind of guy when watching anime, but now he found himself gradually becoming like that character, which made him decisively abandon his hesitant thoughts.

It seems ridiculous to try to restrain a dog with the power to destroy the world using human values.

Luo Tian is willing to abide by human values ​​and morals, but that does not mean he needs to be bound by such ideas.

Besides, his relationship with Ivyia wasn't exactly normal. If you really want to delve into it, Ivyia's relationship was at most "my lord's mission" or "the Demon King's mission."

Since we cannot be bound by ethics and morality, we are naturally not allowed to think about so many things.

After calmly convincing himself, Luo Tian accepted these thoughts with a clear conscience and made arrangements for Ivy's subsequent trip to the capital.

The only thing that Luo Tian regretted during this process was that the conscientious and responsible Uncle Qin seemed to have been transferred from his original position.

In the Starry Sky world, Grandpa Qin is definitely one of the few humans that Luo Tian acknowledges.

The fact that even such a kind doorman couldn't come out to see him off when he left made Luo Tian sigh.

After dealing with these minor matters, Luo Tiancai, carrying the Demon Sword, led the former knight to the imperial capital, the place that symbolized the core of the imperial power of the Great Yin Empire.

The crowd surged all around, including young men and women dressed in ancient-style robes carrying long swords, mages in black robes holding staffs, and social elites in suits carrying briefcases.

The gathering of people with diverse artistic styles creates a feeling of a hodgepodge of worldviews.

This is the extraordinary system that the Star World has accumulated over tens of thousands of years.

Whether it's cultivation of immortality, magic, or technological magic, almost everything can be found in the capital of the Great Yin Empire.

With the Demon Sword on his shoulder and the Soul-Devouring Sea Worm in his hand, Luo Tianfang blended perfectly into the crowd, without having to worry about being checked by the police on the street for carrying a controlled knife.

As Luo Tian navigated through the crowds entering the city, he used his senses to explore his surroundings.

In Luo Tian's perception, most of the extraordinary individuals present were only barely at the first level. They were called extraordinary individuals, but it would be more accurate to say that they were ordinary people with certain extraordinary abilities.

Luo Tian did not see the demeanor and strength of a true superhuman in them; superhuman power seemed to them more like a tool to prove their identity.

And these extraordinary individuals almost all wear badges of different styles.

Luo Tian roughly understood that it was an emblem symbolizing noble status.

Although the laws of the Dayin Empire did not explicitly define the powers possessed by nobles, the absence of such designation did not mean their absence.

The fact that there is no deliberate division actually gives more people room to maneuver.

For most people, that small noble badge represents an insurmountable social class.

Being in this social class, even without extraordinary wealth, provides conveniences that are unimaginable to ordinary people.

They can skip the interview and easily enter the imperial civil service system, achieving a promotion speed that is unattainable for ordinary people.

They can also enter schools for the aristocracy, enjoy the best education at low tuition fees, and access extraordinary systems that are inaccessible to ordinary people.

Over the tens of thousands of years of development in the Star World, the extraordinary system was actually far less noble than it was in ancient times.

According to Yin Qianyu, the Great Yin Empire alone possesses nearly two thousand extraordinary systems.

Some of these extraordinary systems have extremely high thresholds, which are difficult even for nobles to achieve. However, once one achieves extraordinary status, their potential is extremely high, and they are qualified to climb to the level of demigod.

Some extraordinary systems have almost no threshold restrictions and are applicable to almost anyone. The only drawback is that they can only be trapped in a certain lower realm for life.

All nobles, from birth, can make choices among a vast array of extraordinary systems.

Ordinary commoners could only be qualified to come into contact with the supernatural after being admitted to top universities such as the Imperial University and recruited by nobles.

The common people's lifelong pursuit is merely the starting point for the nobility, and the resulting gap is so enormous that everything is so cruel.

Ask yourself honestly, does the Great Yin Empire, which already has the ability to colonize other planes, have the ability to promote those low-cost supernatural systems to all its citizens?

The answer is obvious: by promoting those ultra-low-cost superhuman systems, the Great Yin Empire is fully capable of achieving superhuman status for all its citizens.

But the Great Yin Empire was unwilling, or rather, the powerful nobles at the top of the empire were unwilling.

The extraordinary system is the foundation of the nobles and the guarantee that they can suppress the entire empire's people; they are not going to hand it over easily.

They were unwilling to release even those extraordinary systems whose future was sealed, fearing that geniuses among the common people might expand upon these extraordinary systems, thereby shaking the foundation of their rule.

They can only maintain a seemingly civilized but actually absurd and barbaric rule by using this method of emasculating their own civilization.

"ridiculous!"

With a touch of lament for this tragic era, Luo Tian stepped into the magnificent city hailed as the Glory of the Great Yin Dynasty.

Unbeknownst to Luo Tian, ​​atop the towering city walls that reached into the clouds, a stunningly beautiful woman wearing a platinum crown and a magnificent court dress was silently watching him.

This woman was none other than Yin Qianyu, who had already arrived in the capital.

The long dress, a blend of gold and white with a touch of classic style, accentuated Yin Qianyu's noble elegance, while pale gold threads outlined patterns as dazzling as the sun on the hem.

Above her head, an exquisite platinum crown was adorned with intricate patterns of stars surrounding the sun, making her appear as if a true god had descended to earth under the sunlight.

With her wine-red eyes watching Luo Tian disappear through the city gate, Yin Qianyu slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at the figure kneeling beside her.

A cool, detached tone came from Yin Qianyu's mouth.

"You mean those old fogies in the council of nobles are unwilling to relinquish full power?"

Kneeling on the ground was an elegant maid dressed in a black and white dress. Facing Yin Qianyu's question, the maid softly replied:

"The three dukes believe that Your Highness is still too inexperienced and may not be able to win people's hearts."

The royal family needs a regent with sufficient prestige to wield power, and you, as the heir to the royal bloodline, sit on the Sun Throne.

Only in this way can we subdue the numerous alien races across the five planes and the two restless empires.

"The Regent?"

A flash of undisguised killing intent crossed Yin Qianyu's beautiful eyes as she coldly asked:

Who is the candidate they have nominated?

The maid paused slightly, then spoke softly:

"Mo Hun, the eldest son of the Marquis of Dixing."

Yin Qianyu's pretty face remained unchanged, and her voice was icy cold.

"Mobilize the Dark Sun Guard and slaughter all of the Emperor Star Marquis's sons and descendants except for the eldest son, leaving no one alive!"

Under the sunlight, a distorted shadow quietly appeared in the corner.

"Yes!"

With a single response, dozens of shadows seemed to rapidly spread across the entire capital from the towering city wall, instantly merging into the magnificent city.

The maid's azure eyes trembled slightly at the sight before the onlookers, and her lowered head unconsciously drooped even lower.

The Dark Sun Guard is the last imperial guard of the Great Yin Empire, and the most important guarantee for maintaining the dignity of the emperor.

In the centuries since the fall of the sun god, many nobles under the gradually declining imperial power have long since established their own independent regimes, but only these mysterious Dark Sun Guards have been able to maintain their loyalty to the imperial power.

During the palace turmoil a few months ago, it was only under the protection of these Dark Sun Guards that Yin Qianyu was able to successfully escape from the capital. Otherwise, the corrupt and decadent elders of the Yin clan would have been completely unable to contend with the methods of the Undying Lord.

Now that Yin Qianyu has openly ordered the Dark Sun Guard to attack the sons of the Marquis of Dixing, perhaps this is the Princess announcing her return to the entire capital.

"It's been thousands of years, and those old bones in the Noble Council are still using the same old checks and balances. It's only been a few days since the Immortal Duke died, and they've already forgotten all about it."

With only three of the four dukes remaining in the council of nobles, do the seven marquesses also intend to vacate a seat for a newcomer?

Yin Qianyu's cold words were full of sarcasm.

She arrived in the capital yesterday, but her arrival was not something everyone was happy to see.

Especially the statement Yin Qianyu made in front of the alien race and other survivors on the night the Undying City was destroyed.

"Exterminate all pests!"

These were Yin Qianyu's original words, which had been placed on the desks of various nobles several days earlier.

These nobles, with guilty consciences, were unsure whether the pests Yin Qianyu spoke of were the alien races from the five planes or the parasites within their own empire.

Given Yin Qianyu's stance and the overwhelming force of the alien armies from the five major planes, these powerful figures were unwilling to relinquish their authority to Yin Qianyu.

Because Yin Qianyu cannot represent the interests of the entire aristocratic class or the upper echelons of the empire.

The newly nobles who had previously chosen to stand by Yin Qianyu's side have, driven by shifting interests, also taken positions that oppose her.

Yin Qianyu's current situation doesn't seem to be much better than it was before the Immortal Lord's demise.

The biggest enemy on the surface has disappeared, but everything in sight is an enemy!

Thinking of this, Yin Qianyu let out a soft sigh.
