The Strongest Mythical Emperor-Chapter 266 Sacred Emperor’s Imperial Decree

"We are envoys from the Sacred Dynasty of the Southern Domain, specially here to proclaim the Sacred Emperor’s decree!"

One of the silver-clad envoys among the newcomers spoke, his voice carried an uncoerced authority that inspired awe.

The Sacred Dynasty of the Southern Domain?

The Sacred Emperor?

The entire imperial capital was in an uproar, and Qin Jun’s eyes widened in shock, his face painted with astonishment.

He had heard that there existed a higher authority beyond the Imperial Dynasty, but he had not expected the existence of a Sacred Dynasty.

Evening Star couldn’t help but frown and ponder to himself, "I did not expect His Majesty to draw the attention of the Sacred Dynasty so quickly."

At that moment, two figures flew from the direction of the imperial palace, namely Ao Wujian and Lei Zhenzi.

Ao Wujian’s face was full of shock and disbelief, while Lei Zhenzi frowned and scrutinized the two envoys from the Sacred Dynasty, knowing powerful beings of the True Immortal Realm could pose a threat to Qin Jun.

Seeing Qin Jun fall silent, an envoy from the Sacred Dynasty said sternly, "Why are you not kneeling to receive the decree!"

Damn!

A stream of curses exploded in Qin Jun’s mind. I’m getting crowned today, and you come here to make me kneel in front of everyone? Are you intentionally trying to suppress me?

Little did he realize that the envoys didn’t mean to offend intentionally, for the Sacred Dynasty was the supreme ruler over the entire Southern Domain, and anyone must kneel before the decree of the Sacred Emperor.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining three Dayan Pills!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Heavenly Space Scroll!"

The two system alert tones chimed in succession, but Qin Jun’s attention was focused on the two figures in the sky, disregarding the items he’d received.

Feeling the eyes of the civilians and cultivators on both sides of the street on him, Qin Jun frowned slightly. If he were to kneel now, even to a Sacred Dynasty envoy, his legendary status in the eyes of the people might diminish. At the very least, they’d know he also had something to fear, someone to kneel to.

But if he chose not to kneil at this moment, it would clearly mean opposing the Sacred Dynasty. Damn, having already offended the Abyss Sect and now potentially the Sacred Dynasty, Qin Jun reckoned it would be a miracle if he didn’t die a thousand deaths.

As Qin Jun hesitated, Lei Zhenzi suddenly spoke, "Today is the day my sovereign ascends the throne. If you have something to say, speak quickly. We hope to avoid any unpleasantness."

Upon hearing this, the two envoys from the Sacred Dynasty instinctively looked at him, their pupils constricting. Under the perception of their Divine Consciousness, Lei Zhenzi radiated an overwhelming ferocity that made them involuntarily shudder.

"May I ask if you are Lei Zhenzi?" one of the Sacred Dynasty envoys asked with a frown, his hands subconsciously clenched into fists.

In recent days, Lei Zhenzi had become a prominent figure throughout the Southern Domain, especially within the Sacred Dynasty, his name widely known.

They had seen An Yansha from the Abyss Sect, whom they regarded with reverence, and this strange man with wings in front of them was said to have utterly subjugated An Yansha. It was imaginable how powerful he must be.

Lei Zhenzi did not answer but simply stared at them intently, causing them to break into a cold sweat.

"If that’s the case, then we will commence with the reading of the Sacred Emperor’s decree," said one of the Sacred Dynasty envoys, unable to withstand the pressure, turning to address Qin Jun.

Though they were discontent, they did not dare to show it. A powerful being of the Golden Immortal Realm was a pinnacle existence in the entire Southern Domain, not someone they could afford to offend.

Qin Jun raised an eyebrow, curious about what decree the Sacred Emperor would issue to him.

"Effective immediately, Qin Jun and the Qianyue Kingdom are recorded as a vassal state under the protection of the Sacred Dynasty!"

The voice of the Sacred Dynasty envoy was deliberately amplified so that everyone in the imperial capital could hear it clearly, like thunder out of a clear sky, causing the capital to boil over with excitement.

"What does this mean?"

"Idiot, the Sacred Dynasty must be of a higher status than the Imperial Dynasty. It seems our Great Qin Kingdom is going to prosper!"

"Is that true? Why have I never heard of the Sacred Dynasty before?"

"Anyway, those two envoys seem very powerful." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

"Tsk, no matter how impressive, he’s still a coward in front of General Lei!"

Qin Jun’s eyes narrowed; he was actually being won over, but given the current predicament of Great Qin, there was indeed a need for an umbrella of protection.

Without further thought, he laughed aloud, "Thanks to the Sacred Emperor, but the Qianyue Kingdom has already been renamed to Great Qin!"

"These are trivial matters, please sign the official document with us," a minister from the Imperial Dynasty stated. He only wanted to leave Great Qin as soon as possible, not wanting to face Lei Zhenzi again.

"Then follow me into the imperial palace," Qin Jun said with a wave of his sleeve, and after finishing, he ducked into his sedan. The two ministers from the Imperial Dynasty frowned at this but said nothing, simply following the imperial guards forward.

A potential crisis thus subsided, but the appearance of the Southern Domain Imperial Dynasty was bound to send shockwaves through dozens of surrounding kingdoms, for it had been centuries since the envoys of the Imperial Dynasty had made their presence known in these parts.

"System, continue summoning God and Demon, use both chances!" Qin Jun commanded in his heart. Today was his lucky day, so he was certain his luck wouldn’t fail him; therefore, he saw no point in waiting to accumulate five summoning chances before merging.

"Ding! Commencing random summoning of God and Demon..."

The best of both, one in letters, one in arms!

For the lettered, let it be Jiang Ziya; for the warriors, Sun Wukong or Erlang Shen.

Qin Jun couldn’t help but fantasize—if such was the case, he’d wake from his dreams laughing in joy.

There’s no need to elaborate on Sun Wukong and Erlang Shen, well-known powerhouses to every household.

Jiang Ziya was even more extraordinary; historically, he was the strongest of the civil officials, with even Zhuge Liang standing behind him. The Zhou Dynasty reigned for over seven hundred years, the longest period in the history of Huaxia, and in the narrative "Investiture of the Gods," Jiang Ziya wielded the Investiture of the Gods, with most of the heavenly immortals owing their positions to it!

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, on summoning Li Cunxiao!"

Qin Jun’s eyes widened in shock—the man had actually been summoned!

The king pales compared to Xiang Yu, the general is outshined only by Li!

The "Li" refers to Li Cunxiao!

According to wild legends, Li Cunxiao possessed a strength of over twenty thousand catties in one arm. At the end of the Tang Dynasty and the beginning of the Five Dynasties, he was regarded as the equivalent of the legendary Li Yuanba from early Tang, an existence with overwhelming advantages!

Considered a double of Li Yuanba, but fortunately, not as foolish in intellect!

However, Qin Jun soon furrowed his brows. The Li Yuanba he had summoned was a reincarnation of the Giant Bird, hence possessing the cultivation of an Earth Immortal. Although Li Cunxiao had immense strength, it was clear he couldn’t compare to the deified Li Yuanba.

Just as he was about to have the system display Li Cunxiao’s attribute list, another system notification sounded:

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, on summoning Liu Bowen!"

Damn!

It was actually him!

Qin Jun’s mouth hung open. Liu Bowen was the super strategist who helped Zhu Yuanzhang unify the world, a renowned military strategist, politician, and literary figure during the transition from Yuan to Ming, and a founding hero of the Ming Dynasty.

Like Zhuge Liang, he was deified by generations, with rumors even suggesting that Liu Bowen was a celestial being reincarnated from the Jade Emperor’s entourage. He was said to possess foresight and hindsight spanning five hundred years.

In the history of Huaxia, there’s a saying, "With Zhuge Liang, the land was divided into three; with Liu Bowen, the realm was unified."

This speaks volumes of the reverence bestowed upon Liu Bowen through the ages.

With the combination of Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen governing, it would be difficult for Great Qin not to rise!

Add to that the super generals like Li Yuanba, Red Boy, Lei Zhenzi, Xu Guiku, Guan Yu, and others—Qin Jun even felt an impulse to declare war on the Nanzhuo Dynasty immediately!

From this day forth, his subordinates would no longer be just brawling muscleheads!
