Chapter 547 – Epilogueception (1) (Yellow Turban Family / Former Enemies)

Tong got back to his kingdom at last. His family, wives, children, subordinates, friends, and his people celebrated for his return.

Commoners cheered that their emperor was still alive and kicking. The majestic 10 demon wings were the proof that he was still in power.

Everybody inquired about what had happened after his disappearance, and Tong told them about the deal he had with Lilim.

When Diaochan, Dong Bai, and all officers heard that Tong tricked Lilim into giving him the system authority, they laughed for days.

Tong resumed his emperor position and abolished the election plan to maintain his authority. Still, he started distributing wealth and land rights to common people, merchants, and his loyal subordinates.

Since the country was unified, no one argued about their rewards.

…

Years passed, yet the promised gate never opened. Tong, Medusa, Friday, Li Feihong, Liu Yang, and even Pu Jing waited for the home trip, but it never appeared.

Tong tried to enhance his universe admin tools to see the other side, but he couldn't find anything.

Confused and baffled, they turned to Lilim, who was still under the influence of Tong's brainwashing effect.

Lilim regained her senses after 500 years of everyone's help. Unfortunately, the [Eye of Domination] with the enhancement of a 10-wing demon at that time damaged her soul and her memory. She only remembered that Tong was supposed to be her husband, and they promised to be together forever.

Without Lilim's knowledge and experience about the administrator system, everyone was at a loss.

By the time that it reached 1000 AD, all otherworlders gave up waiting to return to the Netherworld.

Still, everyone had a different future and fate after the civil war had ended.

= Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, Zhang Bao, Bo Cai =

Five years after the southern campaign ended, the four reestablished a cultivator sect, called [Zhang Han Heaven], which represented the royal family sect.

Zhang Jiao acted as the sect master, which his brothers became his assistance, just like when they had found the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Bo Cai worked as the chief elder, and he passed down the story of Tong's deeds to the later generations.

The sect dominated in Julu, their hometown. Yellow banners along with their new slogan – Heaven is Eternal. Han Dynasty is Invincible. Everyone in the town wore yellow bandanna or yellow clothes to show respect to Zhang Jiao and Tong.

After Tong had returned and hugged his father in front of all nearby civilians, Bo Cai sculpted a giant stone statue of Tong and Zhang Jiao hugging, and it triggered a new culture. Children were more outgoing and weren't afraid to hug their parents in public. Vice versa, parents always hugged their children to express their love.

Misunderstanding occurred. Julu ended up becoming the city of love from the outsider's perspective. Many young couples and their families came here to celebrate their wedding here, believing that was a sacred ground for lovers.

Zhang Jiao adapted to the changes and the misunderstanding. He changed his sect's guideline and favor love-and-peace principle.

Unfortunately, he messed up and formed a Yin-Yang Sect, which encouraged dual-cultivating instead.

In the end, Tong returned to Julu and tweaked a few guidelines and its teachings so that his father's sect wouldn't be branded as an evil or an immoral sect.

The sect lasted for a thousand years before a multi-dimensional gate finally opened in 1200 AD.

Zhang Jiao and others didn't know what his descendants and their friends dealt with the dimension gate, but Tong looked distressed when he visited Zhang Jiao and bestowed various system skills to him.

Zhang Jiao received [Private World] system skills and other necessary abilities from Tong. He was ordered to migrate his entire country into his private world. But that was the last time that the Zhang Tong and Zhang Jiao could be together.

Fifty years after Zhang Jiao migrated everyone into his dimension, Li Feihong visited Zhang Jaio and his sect in their dimension world to inform a piece of shocking news.

Zhang Tong was dead.

= Sima Family =

After being crippled, Sima Yi, Sima Lang, Sima Fu, and all Sima Clan quit their jobs and migrated to Xiapi.

Years later, Sima Yi married Zhang Chunhua and had prodigal sons as in history. Sima Shi and Sima Zhao expressed that they wanted to become an official and uproot all the corruption and Tong's dictatorship.

However, Sima Yi advised them not to as Tong was too powerful for them to handle.

Sima Zhao believed in his father, but Sima Shi didn't. Sima Shi attempted to take the imperial exam to take an official job.

Unfortunately, Sima Shi was killed on the road while he was on the journey to Ye City.

Surprisingly, the culprit of the incident was Xu Chu, who everyone believed to have retired along with the Cao Family.

Sima Zhao wanted to avenge for his elder brother. But again, Sima Yi advised him not to. Sima Yi told his son to report this incident to the officials, so Tong and others could handle it instead.

Sima Zhao didn't believe in his father. He hired various cultivators and searched for the murderer.

Unfortunately, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Cao Ren raided the Sima House and killed everyone, including Sima Yi, Zhang Chunhua, and Sima Zhao.

= Cao Family, Xiahou Family =

After losing Cao Cao, all Cao and Xiahou House retired from the political world and lived in Qiao City, Cao Cao's hometown.

They made a tomb for Cao Cao to respect for his deeds in the other timeline even though this world hated him.

When Tong returned and resumed his duty as the emperor, Xiahou Dun visited Tong and asked to clear Cao Cao's name.

Tong demanded that Xiahou Family and Cao Family had to serve him if he did so, which Xiahou Dun accepted.

As promised, Tong published a new statement at Chibi and Wulin Port, telling the local population that they had completely investigated the epidemic outbreak during the southern campaign and found out that Cao Cao wasn't the creator of those poison barrels. Instead, it was the work of Gan Ji, who plotted to use them as a sacrifice to kill Dong Bai's soldiers. Unfortunately, the masterminds died, and Cao Cao ended up taking the blames.

Tong even built Cao Cao's statue at Chibi Port and created a story that Cao Cao tried to collect all poison barrels in one place so that Gan Ji couldn't use it against the people. Tong went all-out to the point that he erased several soldiers' memory about the incidents.

Cao Cao's name was cleared after a few years. Xiahou Clan and Cao Clan adhered to their promises, in which they became Tong's subordinates.

A year before the East-West war, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu increased their cultivation strength to 10 wings.

One day, they found out that the surviving Sima Clan's descendants were plotting rebellion. They assassinated Sima Shi as a warning to Sima Yi.

Unfortunately, Sima Zhao insisted on going through with his brother's goal. The two clans acted on their own and avenged for Cao Cao's children in the other timeline by killing all Sima Clan members.

From that day, they continued to act as Tong's hidden swords.

But when Cao Cao was reborn as Cao Xian and Tong's son, Tong appointed Xiahou Yuan as a temporary grand commander of a new legion – Wei Han Legion. Jia Xu and Xun Yu were also reassigned to support this unit as they were from the old Wei.

Cao Mengde redeemed himself and worked for Tong this time. He grew up and took the helm of Wei Han Legion, which would take an important role in the 300-Year East-West War in the future.

= Liu Ping =

After getting caught, Tong forced him to reincarnate as a dung beetle so that Ping had to live by eating feces forever. Tong also sealed Ping's bug body in a small glass box.

At first, Ping resisted by not eating any food provided by Tong. After all, they were human dung.

Although Ping no longer had any special ability, Tong kept injecting lifespan into him. Ping wanted to commit suicide by starving himself to death, but the starvation torture was too unbearable. Ping ended up eating the poop to live.

The taste was awful. He could hardly digest it since human poop wasn't a dung beetle's primary food. They only ate herbivore creatures' feces.

Ping wanted to die, but he couldn't die. He embraced this humiliation and torture.

Somehow, Ping got used to eating human feces after 500 years. At that point, Tong got bored torturing Ping. He squeezed the bug and used the system authority to shatter Ping's soul to pieces.

Ping got his peaceful death, and his soul fragments entered the reincarnation river. He didn't remember anything afterward as all his past and present memory was erased forever.

Unfortunately, Ping didn't forgive Tong for what he had done. The karma chain between Tong and Ping remained, which would come back and haunt Tong in the latter days.

Because of that karma, Zhang Tong died in the fight against the creator in the higher dimension.

= Pu Jing, Chen Gong, Zhang Miao =

Pu Jing had once dominated the declining Roman Empire and almost restored it to the former glory with his intelligence alone. Unfortunately, Romans hated other races and believed that their race held the supremacy over the Asian and black people. Some of the Romans even envied him because of Pu Jing's modern knowledge that outshone their culture. They saw Pu Jing as a slave-born Asian man and refused to accept his leadership.

Pu Jing proved them wrong by killing many hostile roman aristocrats secretly and openly. With Chen Gong and Zhang Miao's help, they took over the Kushan, allied with the declining Parthian Empire, and destroyed half of the Roman Kingdom during the 10 years that Tong was away.

However, cultivators complicated the war. Septimius Severus, the rising emperor of the Roman Empire, declared that Pu Jing and his forces were the nemeses of the Romans. He united the native cultivators and pushed back against Pu Jing's mercenary forces.

In 220 AD, the Immortal Emperor Severus bribed the Parthian Empire and had them backstab Pu Jing Army, excused that Pu Jing was a Han Dynasty's spy that came to ruin their forces.

Afterward, the Romans assisted the new rising country, the Sassanid Empire, the descendants of the glorious Persian Empire. They replaced the weakened Parthian with the Sasanians. Then, Severus appointed the Sassanid Emperor, Ardashir the First, as their vessel.

History changed. Sasanians became a vessel state for the Romans. Ardashir raised his weapons against Pu Jing and coordinated with Severus Army. Against the two giants and various native cultivators, Pu Jing's western campaign failed.

Chen Gong and Zhang Miao were captured and killed during the fight, but Pu Jing managed to flee and return to where he had started, China.

Pu Jing decisively surrendered himself to Tong, who had returned from Lilim's dimension. He even swore allegiance to Tong with his immortal oath.

Tong appointed Pu Jing as the overseer of the west. He ended up in charge of monitoring the Silk Road and the relationship with the western countries.

After maintaining his position for more than thirty years, in 255 AD, the Roman Empire and the Sasanid Empire and waged war against Tong's Han Dynasty as they were afraid of Pu Jing's influence.

The East-West War occurred. All Tong's elite generals and strategists were sent to fight against the Romans.

Supported by Tong's elite officers, strategists, and advanced weaponry, Tong's forces utilized their modern military knowledge and trampled on the countless soldiers of the western alliance army. Romans and Sasanians experienced a disaster campaign and returned home with only a few thousand men. Out of a hundred 8-wing cultivators, only a handful of them managed to scrap their skin and went home alive.

Pu Jing suggested to Tong that they should destroy the western world and dominate the world, which many strategists agreed.

Seeing that everyone supported Pu Jing's suggestion, Tong sent Pu Jing with Wei Han Legion to destroy the Roman Empire. Many 8-wing elites, such as Zhang He, Xu Huang, and Zhang Liao, also accompanied them.

The campaign lasted 300 years as Severus proved himself to be worthy opponents. It was recorded in history books as the 300-Year East-West War. As for the result of this historical event, no one could claim that they won.

Tong and Pu Jing failed to control the annexed countries as revolts kept occurring. Meanwhile, western countries lost most natural resources to the Han Dynasty.

In the end, Pu Jing withdrew his forces back to China. Roman, Sasanian, and Kushan ceased to exist afterward, but several new countries emerged on top of the fallen ones.

For the sake of not having another East-West War, Tong placed a restriction in the admin system that no commoner could cultivate more than 2 wings without his authorization. As for the cultivators, who had already attained a higher cultivation base, they could retain their strength.

War never occurred again under Tong's watch, until the multi-dimensional gate opened and an outsider informed Tong about the Heavenly Dragon Gathering Festival invitation.

As for Pu Jing, Tong executed him after he had learned about what Pu Jing had done to the native Romans during the war.
