Wen Zhong and the others enter the Chaos Pearl, Ji Chang announces Di Xin's four great crimes!

Longevity Immortal Palace study.

Di Xin looked at Di Xuan. "Di Xuan, how are Jiao'er, Hong'er, Yang Jian, and the other nine doing?"

Di Xuan said, "My true self, Yang Jian, Yin Jiao, Yin Hong, Jin Zha, Mu Zha, Jiang Wenhuan, Huang Tianhua, Huang Tianxiang, and Wei Hu are still tempering their physical bodies."

"As for Lei Zhenzi, he is still too young and is growing within the Chaos Pearl space."

"Once Yang Jian and the other nine have successfully tempered their bodies, I estimate Lei Zhenzi should have grown up as well!"

"Then all ten of them can be trained together!"

Di Xin nodded. "Mm, very good!"

Hearing the conversation between Di Xin and Di Xuan, Wen Zhong wore a puzzled expression.

Wen Zhong said, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

"Where are you training Yin Jiao, Yin Hong, and the others?"

Di Xin said, "Grand Tutor, I am speaking of one of my spatial treasures."

"As for training Yang Jian, Yin Jiao, Yin Hong, and the others, it is to resist the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation!"

Wen Zhong said, "Your Majesty, how long will it take to train them?"

Di Xin said, "At most ten years, at least five. They will emerge from seclusion by then!"

Wen Zhong nodded. "Excellent!"

Then Di Xin said, "Grand Tutor, later, gather your disciples, the Mo Family Four Generals, the Heng and Ha Generals, Deng Jiugong, and Deng Chanyu."

"Then all of you will follow Di Xuan into the Chaos Pearl's spatial world to raise your strength."

Wen Zhong said, "Your Majesty, with so many people entering the Chaos Pearl's spatial world, where will the resources come from?"

"With so many people raising their strength, the resources required will be as vast as the sea."

Di Xin said, "Grand Tutor, do not worry about the resources."

Wen Zhong said, "Very well. This old minister will gather everyone at once."

With that, Wen Zhong hurriedly left the Longevity Immortal Palace study.

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

Before long, Wen Zhong led his six disciples, the Mo Family Four Generals, the Heng and Ha Generals, Deng Jiugong, Deng Chanyu, and the others back to the Longevity Immortal Palace study.

When Wen Zhong and the others arrived at the Longevity Immortal Palace study, they respectfully bowed to Di Xin. "This minister pays respects to Your Majesty!"

Di Xin said, "My lords, rise."

After Wen Zhong and the others rose, they saw Di Xuan enter from outside.

Wen Zhong had seen Di Xuan before, so he was not surprised.

The eyes of everyone else, however, were filled with astonishment as they looked at Di Xuan.

At this moment, Di Xin said, "Grand Tutor, do not ask anything for now. You will understand in due time."

Wen Zhong nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Di Xin said, "Very well. All of you, follow Di Xuan and go."

Wen Zhong and the others respectfully answered, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Di Xuan said, "All of you, follow me!"

With a thought, Di Xuan placed the entrance to the Chaos Pearl's spatial world at the exit of the Longevity Immortal Palace study.

Immediately afterward, Wen Zhong and the others followed Di Xuan out!

Haojing City, Great Zhou Dynasty.

Of the feudal lords invited by Ji Chang, all had arrived except Jiang Huanchu, the Eastern Marquis.

At the northwestern corner of Haojing City stood a vast complex of palaces.

Within it was an enormous hall. At this moment, several hundred people sat around it in four groups.

Just then, Ji Chang entered the hall from outside, surrounded by Great Zhou officials such as Jiang Shang, Sanyi Sheng, Mao Gong Sui, Duke Dan of Zhou, Bi Gonggao, and Shao Gongshi.

At once, everyone in the hall turned to look at Ji Chang and his group.

Ji Chang reached the hall and took his seat of honor, while the Great Zhou officials sat in groups behind him on either side.

Ji Chang said, "My fellow feudal lords, I thank you for accepting my invitation to Haojing!"

At once, everyone in the hall began talking among themselves.

"Marquis of the West, why exactly did you invite us to Western Qi?"

"Exactly. Marquis of the West, we traveled thousands of miles to Western Qi. Surely you did not call us here merely to reminisce?"

"Marquis of the West, what is this about? Just speak plainly!"

Hearing everyone's questions, Ji Chang raised a hand.

Ji Chang said, "My fellow lords, I invited you here for one purpose: to overthrow the brutal Shang-Zhou Dynasty."

At once, everyone in the hall sucked in a cold breath.

All the lords stared at Ji Chang in shock.

What had they just heard? Overthrow the Great Shang Dynasty? Establish a new dynasty to replace Great Shang?

Ji Chang and the Great Zhou officials took in every lord's expression.

Ji Chang said, "My fellow lords, what do you think of my proposal?"

As soon as Ji Chang finished speaking, one of the lords rose to his feet and shouted:

"Marquis of the West, you want us to overthrow Great Shang—but on what grounds?"

"And after the Great Shang Dynasty is overthrown, who will replace it?"

What this lord asked was precisely what everyone in the hall was thinking.

Ji Chang said, "There are naturally many reasons to overthrow the Great Shang Dynasty!"

At that moment, Ji Chang glanced at Jiang Shang beside him.

Jiang Shang immediately rose, took out a yellow scroll, and slowly unfurled it.

On the yellow scroll were seven striking black characters.

"King Zhou's Four Great Crimes!!!"

"First crime: disrespecting Heaven, wallowing in wine and lust! Second crime: indulging in debauchery and corrupting all standards, grievously ruining human relations! Third crime: wantonly pursuing extravagance, exhausting the people and draining their wealth! Fourth crime: slaughtering loyal ministers at will, forfeiting the trust of all under Heaven!"

Every lord in the hall was deeply shaken as they read Di Xin's four great crimes upon the yellow scroll.

At once, all the lords in the hall drew in sharp breaths.

Ji Chang looked at the gathered lords and said, "My fellow lords, do you think there is anything missing from Di Xin's list of crimes?"

"So long as you raise it, I can add it. When the time comes, this will be our proclamation calling for a campaign against Shang-Zhou!"

After Ji Chang finished speaking, the majority of the lords in the hall were opposed.

Only a small number felt that, after overthrowing the Great Shang Dynasty, they might be able to rise another step higher.

Seeing this, Ji Chang said, "My fellow lords, I will give you the time it takes to burn one stick of incense to consider!"

After Ji Chang spoke, he glanced at Jiang Shang beside him.

The instant Jiang Shang saw Ji Chang's look, he understood.

Jiang Shang secretly transmitted his voice to Daoist Randeng. "Vice Sect Master, please take action and control all the lords in the hall."

"This disciple believes it would be best to enslave every lord here, lest someone changes his tune after we launch our campaign against Shang."

Daoist Randeng replied, "Ziya, I can settle such a trivial matter in an instant!"

Jiang Shang replied, "Good!"

Immediately, Daoist Randeng's powerful Primordial Spirit enveloped every lord in the hall in an instant.

At the same time, Daoist Randeng also employed the Elucidation Sect's secret art, the Mind-Control Technique.

In an instant, every lord in the hall had their minds controlled by Daoist Randeng's Mind-Control Technique.

Then, every lord in the hall dropped to their knees and respectfully bowed to Daoist Randeng.

"We pay respects to our master!!!"

Randeng smiled. "All of you, rise!"

All the lords in the hall stood, still gazing at Daoist Randeng with utmost reverence.

Daoist Randeng said, "Now, I command every one of you to obey King Wen Ji Chang's orders!"

"If anyone dares to put on one face before others and another behind their backs, do not blame this venerable one for personally executing them!"

"Then I will suppress their divine soul in the Netherworld Hell forever, never allowing them to enter reincarnation for all eternity!"
