The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

They heard Zhu Dizhu's conversation with Zhou Tianqi and Yun Jie perfectly clearly. They wanted gifts? No way!

Shameless.

The windows are all welded shut!

Watching the group of people flee, Landlord Zhu sighed, "Alas, people's hearts are no longer what they used to be!"

······

PS:

Going back to my hometown today, any boss out there willing to sponsor my travel expenses? Hehe...

But let me make this clear first, I'm not going back for blind dates. With my looks, I don't need to go on any blind dates at all.

Chapter 126 The Wedding [Please subscribe, please subscribe to all chapters!]

······

Seven days after the Council of Kings concluded.

Zhou Tianqi got married.

All the invincible, quasi-invincible, and Sun and Moon Realm or higher beings in the human realm who were free came to offer their congratulations.

Only Qin Guang, Xia Wushen, and others stationed at the Battlefield of the Heavens were unable to attend due to their unavoidable absences, but they all sent their capable subordinates to offer their congratulations and prepared generous gifts.

Yun Jie also attended Zhou Tianqi's wedding, the "Great Yin King". Not only that, Jiang Yao also came along. The two of them were getting married in a few months, and they wanted to come and learn from him, since it was their first time.

At the same time, Yun Jie also brought Ji Ling, Wei Yu, Chen Ping and other high-level executives with him.

Firstly, it will broaden their horizons and allow them to meet other invincible individuals and others, especially those at the Sun and Moon Realm from other prefectures. These individuals will be high-ranking officials in their respective prefectures, so they will definitely need to interact with them frequently in the future.

Secondly, Ji Ling and the others have been busy with various official duties in recent years, and they have been crammed into the small underground city for many years. It's time for them to come out and relax. Yun Jie is a "good boss" who would never exploit his employees.

Zhou Tianqi's wedding lasted only three days before it came to an end.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't have ended so quickly. After all, Zhou Tianqi is one of the five giants of the human race. It should have lasted at least ten days to half a month, right?

However, the human realm is currently in dire need of reconstruction, and each prefecture still has many things to deal with. It would not be appropriate for the wedding to continue for too long, so the wedding was hastily ended.

"What did you think of Lao Zhou's wedding?" Yun Jie asked with a smile.

Jiang Yao thought for a moment, then turned her head to Yun Jie and said, "It feels alright, but it seems a bit too rigid. It looks tiring and troublesome. What do you think?"

Yun Jie immediately laughed, "Haha, we think the same way. Old Zhou is just old-fashioned. He follows the old ways in everything. He's so boring."

"It could also be related to the education he received from a young age. His Zhou family is a long-standing and influential family, unlike us, whose relatives are no longer here."

As she spoke, Jiang Yao's mood suddenly dropped, clearly because she was thinking of her parents. At the beginning of the Battlefield of the Heavens, in order to protect Jiang Yao, the two of them ran in different directions to lure away the nearby alien races, which is how Jiang Yao was able to survive.

"Don't overthink it, I'm here for you. From now on, we're family!" Yun Jie gently pulled Jiang Yao into his arms and comforted her softly.

"Mmm," Jiang Yao replied.

······

three days later.

Yun Jie and his group returned to the Great Xuan Mansion.

Nothing major has happened in Da Xuan Mansion recently, and everything is developing in the direction Yun Jie had expected. After sending Ji Ling and the others away, he and Jiang Yao enjoyed some time alone together.

The back garden of the Great Xuan King's Mansion.

Jiang Yao sat on Yun Jie's lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, and gently rested her head on his shoulder.

The two sat quietly in the pavilion, surrounded by butterflies that occasionally landed on them, showing no fear of strangers.

It was springtime, and the garden was bursting with vibrant colors as all sorts of exotic flowers and plants vied for attention. The trees in the yard were also growing exceptionally lush, creating a scene full of vitality.

Sudden.

Jiang Yao broke the silence with her words.

"Yun Jie, I don't think our wedding needs to be too grand. Keeping it simple is fine."

Yun Jie shook his head without thinking, "How can that be? I promised to give you a grand wedding."

Jiang Yao looked up, stared into Yun Jie's eyes, and said with a grin, "There's no need. As long as I marry you, that's fine. We can have a simple wedding and invite just a few close friends."

"This..." Yun Jie was a little troubled. Why did he suddenly change his mind?

"It's settled then!"

Jiang Yao ignored Yun Jie's opinion and made the decision directly.

Three months later.

Yun Jie and Jiang Yao's wedding was held in a very low-key manner, with only a few people attending. Among the invincible group, there were only a few people, namely Qin Guang, Xia Wushen, Zhou Tianqi, Zhu Dizhu, Yue Li, Tang Tianzhong, and Wu Zhong, who were close friends.

Qin Guang and Xia Wushen returned during a break, and left after only half a day.

The wedding lasted even shorter than Zhou Tianqi's, ending in just one day. As a result, Yun Jie was teased by Zhu Dizhu for being too eager to get into the bridal chamber.

The others burst into laughter, and Yun Jie rewarded them with a Great Zhou Tian Sword.

Due to the presence of crabs, the details of the bridal chamber will be omitted for now; those who know, know.

······

Time always slips away unnoticed.

Several years have passed since Yun Jie's wedding.

In just a few years, Yun Jie felt that everything had changed, yet he also felt that nothing had changed.

The biggest change is that the construction of Yaoguang City, which has lasted for more than ten years, has finally been completed. A giant city that can accommodate tens of millions of people is like a giant beast, lying on the earth. Its size alone is enough to make people feel awe.

Moreover, various departments within the Da Xuan Mansion have taken shape in these years, including the Yu Qiang Bureau, the Inspectorate, the Finance Department, and the Logistics Department.

After two rounds of expansion, the White Tiger and Black Tortoise armies, two of the four major legions, were also sent to the battlefield of the heavens. Currently, only the Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird armies remain in the Great Xuan Palace.

Civilization Academy, War Academy, Internal Affairs Academy, and Scientific Research Academy have all been established, but they are currently lacking in manpower. Except for the War Academy, the other three academies have not yet officially enrolled students.

The reason why the War Academy was able to recruit students so quickly was that it was not difficult to find teachers for the War Academy. A few teachers could be drawn from the four major legions. Secondly, it was due to demand. Although the White Tiger and Black Tortoise legions had undergone two rounds of expansion, they were still not enough, far from enough, because the selection criteria were quite strict, so not many people could be selected.

Therefore, one can only cultivate it oneself. Fortunately, the path of the warrior is not difficult to cultivate. As long as you have a certain talent and sufficient resources, you can definitely reach the level of ten thousand stones, let alone soar into the sky.

The other three universities, on the other hand, need a long period of accumulation before they can meet the requirements for recruiting students from outside the university.

In short, the Great Xuan Prefecture has undergone tremendous changes in just a few years.

When the safety of the people is guaranteed and when order is restored to the world, the development of humanity once again embarks on a fast track.

The defense works of the Eastern Rift Valley have been completed in the past few years. This project was regarded as the top priority of the human race. The thirty-six prefectures of the human realm spared no effort in construction and investment, which is why this fortress rose from the ground in just a few years.

At this time, countless troops had been stationed on the Eastern Rift Valley, and almost every day people traveled from the human realm to the battlefield of the heavens. Of course, this number was still far less than the tens of millions of people in later generations.

At this time, the total population of the human realm was only a few hundred million, most of whom were still children. There was simply not enough manpower available, so for the time being, the only option was to choose the elite force route.

However, once this generation matures, the human race can start mass-producing units.

Meanwhile, the battlefield of the heavens has been quiet for the past few years, with no movement from the alien races, most of them hiding within their own domains.

While seemingly having abandoned their targeting of the human race, they are still secretly plotting. The gods and demons remain unwilling to give up, but the smaller races are currently terrified of being killed by the human race, so they can only contact other major races.

However, the major clans such as Dragon, Phoenix, Underworld, and Heavenly Abyss did not immediately agree to the proposals of the God and Demon clans. They were more cautious and careful, seeking to avoid mistakes rather than make merits.

Even though the human race is currently quite powerful, once the semi-emperors of the various races awaken, they will only be able to eke out a living under the dominance of the major races.

Humans have always been vigilant against other races. At least twenty invincible warriors are stationed in the Eastern Rift Valley every day, but they have concealed their tracks and are generally undetectable to ordinary people.

······

At this moment, in Yun Jie's little world.

At the foot of Dadaofeng Mountain, rows of wooden houses indicate that people live here.

There are exactly six hundred wooden houses, not one more and not one less.

They were the six hundred geniuses that Yun Jie had Wei Yu select back then. After Yun Jie's screening, one hundred of them were more talented in the path of the Civilization Master, while the other five hundred all chose the path of the Warrior.

After more than ten years of training and cultivation, the cultivation levels of these six hundred people are already quite high. Apart from the hundred who have chosen the path of the Civilization Master, the remaining five hundred are all at the Lingyun level, and most of them can challenge opponents of higher levels, probably by one or two levels.

As for the hundred Civilization Masters, most of them are still at the Sky Soaring Realm. Because they have stayed in the Nourishing Nature stage for a relatively long time, and the cultivation of Civilization Masters is more difficult, their breakthrough time is later than that of the five hundred people who took the Warrior Path. However, their methods are not necessarily inferior to those of the other five hundred people.

The methods of the Civilization Masters are endless. They may not be a match for you in a direct confrontation, but they have unconventional tricks. If you're not careful, even Lingyun will suffer a loss.

Yun Jie's thoughts on the arrangements for these 600 people changed.

He originally planned to find an invincible person to lead this group of people to the upper realm to cause trouble, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was not a good idea.

The human race in the upper realm is currently hated by everyone and lives a life of hiding and running away. If a human race suddenly appears, it is easy to arouse the suspicion of other races.

The alien races aren't stupid. They had also suspected that there was a special passage between the Upper Realm and the myriad worlds, but they had never found it, and this guess had not been confirmed. Then suddenly a human race appeared and stirred up trouble in the Upper Realm. Wouldn't they be suspicious?

Therefore, this dispelled the idea of ​​sending these six hundred people to the upper realm to cause trouble.

Perhaps we could send a few "scouting agents" up there; fewer people would actually make it easier to hide, but Yun Jie hasn't found suitable candidates yet.

Perhaps we should consider targeting other rulers who have established their own governments.

Yun Jie remembered that several invincible generals would fall in the coming days, which would leave them with a lot of room for maneuver; perhaps they could…

Swish!

Yun Jie's figure appeared above the Heavenly Pool on the Great Dao Peak.

Decades have passed, and the Xuan Turtle that was "picked up" back then has grown up. However, their cultivation level is somewhat disappointing. Despite the considerable resources invested, their cultivation speed just can't be improved.

Fortunately, because they had no natural enemies in Tianchi Lake and were not lacking in resources, their descendants have covered the entire bottom of Tianchi Lake in just a few decades. Yun Jie roughly counted them and found that there were several thousand of them.

It has to be said that they are quite prolific, and each one gives birth to a whole litter. As a result, the Xuan Turtle family has been expanding like a snowball. Yun Jie thought that in a few years, they could be released into the wild. It wouldn't do for them to just eat and not work.

"Master, you've arrived."

At this moment, a spiral turtle surfaced.
