"Father, Grandpa..."
"If you have spirits in heaven, you can rest in peace now."
Chen Zhengxing rambled on as he offered incense before the memorial tablet, his eyes slightly red, clearly troubled by his emotions.
In front of him:
There were hundreds of memorial tablets, arranged from highest to lowest, which looked inexplicably awe-inspiring.
This is a corner of the ancestral hall of the Chen Clan family's direct line, dedicated to the memorial tablets of those who perished in the turmoil in the Divine Capital during that period.
The turmoil of that year resulted in countless deaths and injuries.
Their branch alone lost hundreds of people, almost all of whom were outstanding talents and powerful figures.
"Call..."
Chen Qingyu took a deep breath and remained silent.
For him:
These elders, even his grandfather and great-grandfather, were complete strangers.
He had never seen it since birth, only a portrait of it, and his father, Chen Zhengxing, rarely mentioned it, so his impression of it was very faint.
"In any case, I have avenged everyone!"
Chen Qingyu silently thought to himself:
"The great calamity of the Divine Capital will never happen again."
" Qingyu."
Chen Zhengxing looked at the memorial tablet and suddenly spoke:
"You are stronger than me, much stronger."
"Without you, I don't know when I would have been able to fulfill my long-cherished wish."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu shook his head and said:
"Father, you underestimate yourself too much."
"You are the fastest person in the Chen Clan to reach the Extreme Transformation Realm in hundreds of thousands of years. Even without me, you will still be able to take revenge one day."
"... Perhaps."
Chen Zhengxing sighed deeply, slightly lost in thought:
"After more than sixty years, all our enemies are finally dead..."
All along:
What propelled him forward was his desire for revenge; his deep-seated hatred gave him unparalleled motivation.
Coupled with his own talent and good fortune, he was able to make rapid progress and reach the Extreme Transformation Realm in less than a hundred years after reaching the Void Penetration Realm.
Once his wish was fulfilled and his hatred dissipated, he felt somewhat lost and disoriented.
" Zhengxing."
An aged voice came from behind.
"Uncle."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhengxing quickly turned around.
Behind the two, Chen Yuanhe, Chen Zhenghong, and their entire family stood together.
Today is a big day for their branch of the family. Everyone has come with Chen Zhengxing and Chen Qingyu to pay respects to their deceased relatives.
" Zhengxing..."
Chen Yuanhe patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"Debts are settled upon death."
"The past is the past; we must learn to look forward."
"Your family has gone through so much hardship to finally be reunited; you should cherish this moment."
Clearly, he noticed Chen Zhengxing's confusion, which is why he offered this advice.
"..."
Chen Zhengxing paused for a moment, then nodded vigorously and said:
"Uncle is right."
"The past is the past; we should live in the present."
Chen Yuanhe smiled, looked at the densely packed memorial tablets, and sighed:
You have a good son.
At the very top of the numerous memorial tablets:
The plaque for Tianjiazi 4 has been replaced with the new Tianjiazi 1 at some point.
Three days later.
Inside the main Floating Heavenly Palace palace.
Saint from many holy places gathered together in a bustling atmosphere.
Compared to the last meeting, the number of attendees was nearly a third less, making the seats for the alien Saint appear much emptier.
The atmosphere on both sides was also completely different;
The many Saint on the Human Race side chatted and laughed together, the atmosphere relaxed;
In contrast, the Saint of other races mostly remained silent, and when they did speak, it was always in private.
Obviously--
The massive purge that broke out a few days ago still caused serious damage to the alien holy land.
The atmosphere of putting aside grudges and working together during the great war has vanished, replaced by renewed suspicion and estrangement.
"Buzz!"
Chen Qingyu's figure suddenly appeared in the main seat at the head of the table.
"Greetings, Alliance Leader!"
Many Saint immediately rose and respectfully bowed.
Please be seated.
Chen Qingyu raised his hand to indicate that he should sit down.
After all the Saint had taken their seats again, Chen Qingyu spoke:
"Now that the four borders have been pacified, the remaining elements of the Sage Evolution Palace have also been basically wiped out."
"The reason for summoning you all here is to discuss the development strategy of the Desolate Continent in this new era."
Hearing his words:
The many Saint immediately perked up, especially the Saint from various alien races, who stared at him intently.
After the great battle, it was natural to reward those who had contributed.
Needless to say, the holy lands of the Human Race are extremely concerned about their future situation, as are the holy lands of the alien races.
After all, before this, they had always been rejected by Human Race, their living space was squeezed, and they could only occupy the Savage Wilderness, making development very difficult.
Having finally joined forces with the Human Race and achieved considerable success, they naturally hoped to gain an even higher status.
They dared not hope to be on equal footing with the Human Race or to establish themselves in the Central Heaven Prefecture, but they would be satisfied as long as they could escape the Four Desolate Lands.
"First, let's talk about the Human Race."
Chen Qingyu spoke calmly and unhurriedly:
"Within the sacred lands of Human Race, the Yama Holy Land and the Tianhe Luo Clan have aided and abetted tyranny and defied the established order, committing grave errors."
"However, considering that they were forced to submit, and that most of their Extreme Transformation Realm Saint have already perished, the remaining ones will not be pursued further. But their Holy Land status will be stripped, and they will be expelled from Central Heaven Prefecture!"
His voice faded:
The many Saint exchanged views, and none of them expressed any objection.
The Saint of these two holy lands had all followed the Emperor Yuan Palace and died in the Second Battle of the Divine Capital.
Saint were all dead, and they were also traitors, they naturally did not have a good ending.
Removing the Holy Land from its status and expelling it from the Central Heaven Prefecture was already an act of great magnanimity on Chen Qingyu's part.
The Yama Holy Land and the Tianhe Luo Clan were already weak in foundation, and after being expelled from Heavenly Province, it will be even more difficult for them to rise again in the future.
"Among the Human Race, there is also the Liangshan Wang Clan, whose foundation was destroyed and suffered heavy losses."
Chen Qingyu slowly opened his mouth and said:
"I propose that all the major Human Race holy sites provide assistance to the Liangshan Wang Clan to help them rebuild their foundation."
Upon hearing this statement:
The Supreme Elder of the Liangshan Wang Clan immediately stood up, tears of gratitude streaming down his face, and said:
"Thank you so much, Alliance Leader!"
Liangshan was destroyed by the Sage Evolution Palace, and they suffered heavy losses. Their foundation was completely lost, their direct lineage was almost wiped out, and they were relegated to the bottom of the major holy lands.
With the assistance of various sacred sites, the time it takes for the Liangshan Wang Clan to recover will be greatly shortened.
"..."
The Saint of the various Human Race holy lands discussed the matter for a while, but none of them expressed any objection.
The Yama Holy Land and the Tianhe Luo Clan were expelled from the Central Heaven Prefecture, and the territory and resources they left behind naturally had to be distributed to the other holy lands.
Since they have already gained quite a bit, joining forces to support the Wang Clan shouldn't be a problem.
"Secondly, there's the matter of the four great alien holy lands..."
Chen Qingyu spoke, his gaze swept over the Saint of the various alien holy lands.
The numerous Saint from different races immediately became alert, focusing intently and not daring to miss a single word.
For them:
The new era of the Desolate Continent has taken shape; this is the moment that will determine their future fate.
You provided the starting sign-in rewards for the legendary Zhuang Shisan, featuring Chen Qingyu from the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Transformations Zhuang Shisan.
