The Laughing God Was About to Take Slaanesh's Shape
Everyone else in the sanctuary knelt on one knee to welcome the supreme ruler of mankind.
A burst of intense light erupted from Qin Yun, engulfing Lion El'Jonson, and no one could hear what they were saying.
On the other side, Qin Yun transformed into Black Sun, and in an instant, his gaze swept across the entire Milky Way.
"This feeling is so wonderful, it's irresistible."
"Is this the vision of an all-knowing, all-powerful god?!"
"Oh, no, the Emperor is not a god."
"Speaking of which, this Old Man Emperor is really petty. When will I get to take down those four bastards?"
"I'm going to punch that Nurgle, filthy nerd and kick Slaanesh widow's door."
Qin Yun complained as he looked at the domain of the Chaos Gods.
Khorne's realm is always filled with carnage and bloodshed, a scene of utter carnage.
Tzeentch's domain is a bunch of intertwined bird heads. His main body is like a knotted tangled mess, with countless bird heads exerting force in countless directions, making his main body even more entangled and unable to do anything.
The realm of Nurgle is a Garden of Nurgle where a bunch of fat men of all sizes are playing house, throwing whatever they can get their hands on into that broken pot.
In Slaanesh's realm, it always seems like a wild party of strange and wonderful creatures.
The Chaos Gods also sensed Qin Yun's gaze and all looked at him.
"We're all just playing chess, do we really need to look at each other like that?"
Qin Yun complained,
Since he could only watch and couldn't do anything, Qin Yun turned his head away after a moment of eye contact and stopped paying attention to them.
"Shall we look at something else?"
"I wonder what Erebus is doing?"
Qin Yun thought of the number one evil species in the Milky Way, but Erebus did not believe in the Emperor, so he could not pinpoint the location of this evil species.
But he still saw some fragments of images related to Erebus.
Qin Yun sorted through these fragments of footage and gleaned some intelligence from them.
He discovered that Erebus was aboard a warship filled with the dead, and that the other party was heading to the Koronus Expanse.
"What is this bastard up to now?"
Qin Yun knew that Erebus was definitely up to no good.
The Koronus Expanse is so close to his home base Calixis Sector.
They went to Koronus Expanse, definitely because of him.
We need to be careful of this bastard.
"Erebus's actions reminded me that the Koronus Expanse should also become part of the Imperium's territory."
The sector is a region where the Imperium's formal governing institutions have been established, and it possesses a well-developed trade and military system.
Expansion territories typically exist where a formal Imperium ruling structure has not yet been established, but where many human colonies still exist.
The process from the discovery of a region to its formal conquest can typically take thousands of years.
For example, it took a very long time from the discovery of the Calixis Sector to the formal establishment of a sector government.
However, with the presence of smaller players, Qin Yun felt that the Koronus Expanse would soon become official territory of the Imperium.
The enthusiasm for the Fourth Calamity is unimaginable to the local indigenous people.
"Should we issue a Colonist Decree?"
Qin Yun had a great idea that could maximize the enthusiasm of the young players.
Any planet that players conquer will be under their rule.
Of course, this doesn't mean becoming their slave owner.
The Fourth Calamity has an incredibly low moral compass.
Even demons would cry out "Devil!" upon seeing this.
If players are given free rein, the Chaos Gods will immediately be redeemed and become benevolent gods who protect the Milky Way.
The prerequisite for rule is that it must comply with existing laws and fully respect the choices and freedoms of the Imperium's subjects.
Many casual players don't like fighting and aren't enthusiastic about various battles.
Letting them rule and transform various worlds is also a highly efficient use of cattle and horse resources.
Then, we'll hold a few more competitions to see who governs their planet better, and award them the Best Management Award.
When that happens, a bunch of players will flood into the Koronus Expanse. Let's see how Erebus will cause trouble!
Just as Qin Yun was thinking about how to develop the Imperium's frontiers and reduce the living space of evil races like Erebus,
Suddenly everything blurred, and all images disappeared.
Qin Yun returned to the sanctuary of the Rock.
"They threw it back again."
Qin Yun looked around and saw the Cherub flapping its wings and flying into the cave of light.
It seems the father-son meeting has ended.
Qin Yun turned to look at Lion El'Jonson, Lion was still standing there in a daze, his eyes slightly red, clearly because he was too excited to see his father.
It could also be because seeing that he was older than his father made him unable to control his emotions.
He slept for ten thousand years, and when he woke up, he found himself with white hair.
For a moment, it was unclear who the son and the father were.
"Lion El'Jonson?"
Qin Yun's call brought Lion El'Jonson back to his senses.
He suppressed the many thoughts in his mind and said, "I'm sorry you had to see this, Your Living Saint."
"It's only human nature." Qin Yun didn't voice his true feelings of complaint.
"My business here is finished, I need to go and take care of other things."
Qin Yun was preparing to leave to repair the Webway and then set a trap for that clever Abaddon.
"Living Saint." Lion El'Jonson with some reluctance.
Working with Qin Yun was truly fantastic.
It's at least a hundred times happier than working with that bastard Guilliman.
Why didn't Father create the Living Saint ten thousand years ago? He could have surely replaced Horus as the Warmaster.
Leading humanity toward unparalleled glory.
Qin Yun said, "If you have anything urgent, you can call on me. As long as the God Chosen is by your side, I can descend at any time."
"..."
After chatting for a while, Qin Yun left with his men.
Using the Beacon's teleportation network, travel to Commorragh, lead a team to repair the Webway, and open a passage between the Imperium Sanctus and the Dark Side.
However, upon arriving in Commorragh, Qin Yun summoned Xi Ling.
"Master." Xi Ling's response was always so swift.
"Help me edit a few small expansion packs," Qin Yun said.
"What type of expansion pack is it, Master?" Xi Ling asked.
"The first expansion pack is about the Webway, which increases rewards. As long as you can open up the Webway route Imperium Nihilus and the Holy Territory, you will receive a lot of rewards."
"The second expansion pack is about the Koronus Expanse. That place is full of all sorts of people, and it's time to bring it under the rule of the Imperium. Give players the right to explore it, and if they can conquer it, they can rule it."
Xi Ling will also release mini-expansion packs, such as having her collect ancient treasures, find special metals, or participate in key battles.
Qin Yun also has a plan for a large-scale expansion, namely the Battle of the Vigilant Star, but this can only be released after the Webway route is opened.
Otherwise, what if Abaddon doesn't cooperate when the expansion is released, hiding in the Eye of Terror and refusing to come out? That would be very awkward.
Xi Ling acted quickly, and soon brought out the two expansion packs.
[Expansion Pack: Colonist Act of the Koronus Expanse]
Since the discovery of the Koronus Expanse in 997, 40 millennia ago, humanity has been exploring this mysterious area.
Countless adventurers crossed the Maw to reach the Koronus Expanse, all in search of lost ruins and hidden treasures.
Countless people perished in that mysterious region, but there was never a shortage of courageous humans who, in the name of the Emperor, charged wave after wave into that danger, reaping wealth while spreading the glory of the Imperium.
As the rule of the Calixis Sector became increasingly stable, the issue of territorial expansion was once again placed before the Imperium rulers.
For a powerful civilization to survive in the Milky Way, it must constantly maintain a posture of expansion.
However, considering the current state of the Imperium, the Imperium's rulers decided to entrust the power of expansion to the chosen one selected by the Emperor.
The ruler of a planet can gain dominion over it by conquering it and promising to rule it in accordance with the laws of the Imperium.
More details can be found in the Footfall call after entering the game.

[Expansion Pack: From Bridging the Chasm
Abaddon the Despoiler destroyed Cadia, the Imperium of Man has been divided in two, making communication and navigation extremely difficult.
Currently, humanity is connected to the fragmented Imperium only by one corridor: the Nachmund Gauntlet.
But such a narrow passage could be cut off by the gods at any time, and humanity needs more sea routes to connect the shattered Imperium.
The ancient Webway could withstand the storms of the Warp, but it itself was already broken and shattered.
Those dark and evil gods would never allow humanity to restart the Webway.
But even when faced with dire straits, humanity never yields to difficulties and enemies.
The Imperium plans to invest resources to create Webway Imperium the Holy Territory and the Dark Side.
Anyone who successfully builds a Webway leading to the dark side will receive a generous reward.

+++ Thought for the Day: Loyalty is the only gift we can offer to Emperor +++
After checking it over and confirming that there were no problems, Qin Yun nodded.
"Xi Ling did a great job."
These words made Xi Ling proud, and she puffed out her chest. "That's right, Xi Ling is Master's most capable assistant."
Qin Yun smiled. "The usual, schedule it for release at 6 p. m.
"Understood." Xi Ling nodded, and then disappeared.
Qin Yun stepped onto the balcony, where he saw the Commorragh under reconstruction.
At this moment, he was standing on top of a tall building built by the Adeptus Mechanicus.
After expelling the Dark Eldar and repairing the rift, the Imperium rebuilt Commorragh, preparing to firmly control this important node in the Webway.
Large numbers of Craftworld Aeldari are pouring in from all directions through the Webway, gathering in this ancient city in an attempt to build it into a habitable home.
Commorragh was once a core city of the Webway.
When the Aeldari the Fall, many Aeldari chose to escape into the Webway and hide in various node cities.
The Commorragh have the largest Aeldari, and they also hold the highest status.
Among them were many of the top nobles of the Aeldari Empire.
These individuals formed the initial political structure of the Commorragh and brought with them the decadent atmosphere of the Aeldari Empire.
Some Aeldari also left to seek refuge on various Craftworld.
Now that the Dark Eldar have been driven out of the human race, the Living Saint, who is the embodiment of the Emperor's will, has signed a pact with them, allowing them to return to live in Commorragh.
Naturally, many Aeldari flocked to the area to participate in the reconstruction of Commorragh.
Farseer like Eldrad Ulthran also guided and restrained their people, preventing them from clashing with humans.
However, a large number of Dark Eldar still remain in the Webway.
After losing their only home— Commorragh —these Dark Eldar became extremely hostile towards humans and other Aeldari.
They stubbornly believed that Eldrad Ulthran and the Craftworld Aeldari had acted as guides.
They introduced humans into the Commorragh, thereby taking over their homeland.
Therefore, the Craftworld Aeldari deserve to die just like humans.
To this end, they launched repeated attacks throughout those hidden Webway, massacring many Imperium personnel and Craftworld Aeldari.
The Imperium did not remain silent. It formed a joint squad and launched repeated attacks, taking action against any Dark Eldar it discovered.
The two sides fought fiercely across the entire Webway.
Footsteps sounded, and an attendant entered, bowing to Qin Yun.
"Living Saint."
"What is it?" Qin Yun asked without turning his head.
"The Farseer of the Craftworld Ulthwe, Eldrad Ulthran, and the Harlequin Shadowseer, Sylandri, have brought several Aeldari to see you," the attendant said.
"You're quite well-informed; you knew I was back so quickly. Let them in."
Qin Yun said.
"Yes, sir." The attendant acknowledged the order and left.
A short while later, Eldrad Ulthran and Sylandri escorted a tall Aeldari dressed in magnificent clothes and wearing Joker mask as they entered.
Qin Yun stared at the Aeldari for a while, then smiled.
He already guessed who the visitor was.
"Welcome, Cegorach, the Aeldari's God of Joy."
"Crunch! Crunch! Crunch!"
A laugh filled with jubilation, joy, and mockery emanated from the tall Aeldari wearing Joker mask.
The sound kept echoing in the room.
"As expected of the incarnation of the Master of Mankind, he is truly knowledgeable."
"I am Cegorach, the god of the Aeldari who mocks fate. This body is my incarnation, my mask as I walk among men."
An aria-like tone escaped from the Aeldari's mouth, and he burst into loud laughter.
He is not the real Cegorach, but a Harlequin, an Avatar of Cegorach, a comedic figure in a Harlequin drama who plays the role of the Laughing God.
Qin Yun opened his communication device and called his communications manager, "Send over some of the finest wine."
"It is an honor to receive such a warm welcome from Living Saint." The Avatar of Cegorach bowed to Qin Yun.
"Guests are always welcome," Qin Yun said, gesturing for everyone to take their seats.
Before long, the servants brought up the wine and some dishes.
Just as a servant was about to open the wine bottle, Qin Yun stopped him.
"You may all leave now. I will personally entertain the guests."
Qin Yun uncorked the wine bottle, poured the wine into stemmed glasses, and handed them to the three Aeldari in turn: the Avatar of Cegorach, Eldrad, and Sylandri.
"I wonder what brings the God of Laughter to me?"
The Supreme Avatar swirled the wine in his goblet. "You want to join forces with the Living Saint to attack the Dark Prince's domain??"
Qin Yun was slightly taken aback.
What?
Is the Laughing God going to lead his troops to attack Slaanesh's territory?
This isn't like a delicate young woman entering a bandit's den; she'll probably turn into a bandit in less than a day!
P. S.: Thanks for your support, brothers.
