Chapter Summaries

Lu Xuan’s Southern Pacification Army conquered most of Azure Prefecture under the banner that he was destined by Heaven, forcing Chen Xiong into a last-ditch escape from Hejiang City. Chen Xiong’s former-dynasty appointment document unleashed imperial fate that suppressed the army’s talisman arts, leaving his escape party and Adjutant Mo’s forces facing a sudden reversal.

• Lu Xuan sent the Southern Pacification Army into Xinyu County, where Jiang Hengzhi surrendered after his troops’ bullets failed to harm the talisman-protected soldiers.
• The army took neighboring counties as their people and commanders switched allegiance, leaving Chen Xiong isolated in Hejiang City with fewer than fifty thousand troops.
• Chen Xiong’s retainer proposed using the former-dynasty appointment document to open a path through the encirclement, and Chen Xiong chose to escape through a hidden mountain route.
• Adjutant Mo’s forces intercepted Chen Xiong’s party at the mountain exit, but a yin-yang-robed elder cut Chen Xiong’s palm and used his blood to activate the document.
• The document released a golden pillar of imperial fate that suppressed the Southern Pacification Army’s talismans, allowing Chen Xiong’s guards to fire and forcing Adjutant Mo and the arcane masters into cover.

Lu Xuan discovered that the bloodstained Governor's document contained Heaven and Earth Origin, then conquered the Xia Yu Kingdom and founded New Xia. Alone with the Imperial Seal of Transmission, he began extracting its power.

• Adjutant Mo's soldiers drove off Chen Xiong's guards, and a green-robed Daoist used Chen Xiong's bloodstained document to track and capture him.
• Lu Xuan touched the document, detected Heaven and Earth Origin, and ordered the Southern Pacification Army to march on the Capital City for the Imperial Seal of Transmission.
• Luo Zhenshan and Miao Jiugu surrendered their troops to Lu Xuan, helping him unify Azure Prefecture and draw support from across the Xia Yu Kingdom.
• Lu Xuan's forces took control of the kingdom, and Shen Yiyuan surrendered the Capital City after his own soldiers surrounded the Presidential Palace.
• Lu Xuan founded New Xia, ended the warlord era, and, alone with the Imperial Seal of Transmission, silently chose to extract its power.

After escaping the New Xia world, Lu Xuan reached the perfected Seventh Mortal World Immortal and entered the Great Desolation World as a low-ranking Heavenly Soldier. He and Wang Qing Teng’s squad arrived in Linjiang County to arrest a thousand-year Fox Demon just after it killed County Magistrate Zhou.

• Lu Xuan gained 2.29 billion System Points after refining the Imperial Seal of Transmission, fled the New Xia world’s higher will, and spent 500 million points deducing his cultivation techniques until he reached the perfected Seventh Mortal World Immortal.
• Lu Xuan entered the Great Desolation World in the body of a Human Immortal Heavenly Soldier, where Wang Qing Teng ordered him and nine soldiers to capture a Fox Demon in Aolai Country.
• At the county office in Linjiang County, Miss Su used her charms to distract County Magistrate Zhou and two Yamen Runners after they reported finding more than a dozen drained corpses in Tenghu Village.
• Miss Su drained County Magistrate Zhou’s vital essence, leaving only bones, and prepared to prey on the county office’s other occupants.
• Wang Qing Teng and the Heavenly Soldiers descended on the county office, and Wang Qing Teng spotted Miss Su and ordered her to submit to judgment.
