"Since the Abyss Devil Race have already broken ties with us, we don't need to be polite to them either."
A Huo, Yin Zhan, you no longer need to launch a full-scale attack on Central Province. Withdraw your troops today and go take Si Province instead!
More than three months later, the injuries of the gods of the Chen Kingdom had mostly healed. Chen Mu immediately adjusted the strategic policy and sent A Huo to attack Si Province.
Over the years, the reason why the Chen Kingdom has not attacked the territory of the Abyss Devil Race is partly because the territory occupied by the Abyss Devil Race only has a very small number of the Human Clan, which is not of great significance to the spread of the " Dragon-Like Scripture ".
On the other hand, it was also to maintain a semblance of peace with the Abyss Devil Race. After all, the Chen Kingdom had already gone to war with the Haotian Empire and did not want to easily offend a powerful enemy.
However, the superficial peace between them was shattered after the seven True God attacked Source Wood City.
If Chen Kingdom does not take action against the Abyss Devil Race at this time, it will only make the Abyss Devil Race underestimate Chen Kingdom, thinking that Chen Kingdom is no longer able to fight, which will put Chen Kingdom in greater danger.
So after the gods of the Chen Kingdom recovered somewhat, A Huo and Yin Zhan immediately led their troops to attack Si Province, gradually encroaching on the territory of the Abyss Devil Race.
"Haha! This Si Province is more accurately described as the territory of ferocious beasts than the territory of the Abyss Devil Race."
"We fought our way through, and apart from some ferocious beasts that were difficult to deal with, the other legions were simply no match for us."
The Hegemon Cavalry led by Yin Zhan now numbers over 30,000.
Originally, he and A Huo split up to attack Si Province, but they encountered no significant resistance along the way. In the end, he simply divided the Hegemon Cavalry into three squads, advancing side by side, which greatly accelerated the speed of their conquest of Si Province.
" The Abyss Devil Race are indeed relatively weak in legionary combat, but they have more skilled fighters than we do."
The reason we didn't encounter any obstacles in Si Province is probably because the Abyss Devil Race did it on purpose; they had already abandoned Si Province.
However, we cannot be careless; we must proceed cautiously step by step.
Although A Huo and Yin Zhan were tens of thousands of miles apart, they could synchronize information at any time using the Spirit Magnetic Network System, which made their march much easier.
While Chen Kingdom was conquering Si Province, Chen Haoran was also occupying Yang Province. They proceeded step by step, and it took them about a year to finally complete the occupation of both states.
The occupation of Yang Province brought Chen Kingdom more abundant natural resources, further enhancing its national strength.
The occupation of Si Province was even more important, because after occupying Si Province, Chen Kingdom would be bordering the Dragon-Toppling Society and the Far Northern Grassland, and the three parties could finally trade directly instead of relying on aerial transport ships to complete transactions.
Chen Kingdom, Wood Nether Hall.
On this day, four people, two men and two women, came to the Wood Nether Hall as guests, and Chen Mu and Mingye did not presume to be presumptuous and personally received them.
"Senior Moyu, Senior Man Hong, Brother Tianlong, Ningbi, please have a seat!"
To entertain these people from the Saint Clan and the Soul Clan, Chen Mu spared no expense, bringing out his treasured 10,000-year-old Enlightenment Tea, which he personally brewed for them to taste.
"Haha, Master Chen Mu, there's no need to be so reserved."
Although this is our first meeting, we are already very familiar with each other. We are here today simply to show our sincerity.
The Saint Clan's leader Man Hong, and Duan Tianlong share a similar temperament; both are forthright individuals who speak directly and bluntly, without beating around the bush.
"I understand! If that's the case, then I'll just state my thoughts directly."
If there is anything wrong, please speak frankly, senior, and I will certainly consider it carefully.
After serving everyone a cup of tea, Chen Mu sat down again, his expression serious.
The fact that the Saint Clan Leader and the Soul Clan Leader visited Chen Mu at this time was obvious to everyone: they were there to discuss how the Chen Kingdom and the Dragon-Toppling Society should get along in the future.
The Chen Kingdom is now at its zenith. After annexing Si Province and Yang Province, even the Haotian Empire is no larger than the Chen Kingdom in terms of territory.
Previously, the territories of the Chen Kingdom and Dragon-Toppling Society were not adjacent, and there were no conflicts of interest between them, so they naturally got along well.
However, after their territories became adjacent, the Dragon-Toppling Society worried that the Chen Kingdom might annex them. That's why the Saint Clan Leader and the Soul Clan Leader personally came from Source Wood City to meet with Chen Mu.
"Brother Tianlong previously said that he planned to establish a nation in the two states of Youyi."
I fully support this, and our Chen Kingdom can even send a large army of Talisman Puppet warriors to help you build cities and develop farmland."
Chen Mu took a sip of tea as he spoke, and then continued.
"I know that what you're most worried about right now is whether, if our Chen Kingdom is fortunate enough to unify the Pan Emperor Continent, it will follow the example of the Heavenly Court and exterminate your Saint Clan and Soul Clan."
"You flatter me, Brother Chen..."
Upon hearing this, Duan Tianlong quickly shook his head, wanting to interject, but Chen Mu waved his hand to stop him.
"Brother Tianlong, there's no need to explain. To be honest, not only you, but even I myself can't guarantee this. After all, no one can predict the future."
What Chen Mu said was indeed the truth. If the crisis on the Pan Emperor Continent is resolved in the future, he certainly will not stay on the Pan Emperor Continent forever. By then, the Chen Kingdom will no longer be under Chen Mu's control, so naturally he cannot guarantee anything.
"Therefore, I intend to have our God-Slaying God Clan sign Bloodline Contract with your Holy and Soul Clans to ensure that we will not fight each other for ten thousand years."
I don't know if you can accept this suggestion.
After Chen Mu finished speaking, Moyu and Man Hong smiled almost simultaneously. They looked at each other and nodded, clearly very satisfied with Chen Mu's suggestion.
"Haha! Agreed, actually we had the same idea when we came here."
With a contract in place, future affairs will naturally be handled by our descendants; how could we possibly interfere?
Bloodline Contract are an ancient method, and many forces in the past history of the Pan Emperor Continent have used this method to maintain peace. It is indeed a very good method, and both Man Hong and Moyu agree with it.
Haha! It's great that you all think it's okay!
Ye'er, go fetch some wine. I want to drink with my two seniors until we're both drunk.
Once the general direction was set, the remaining minor details were trivial matters. They stopped discussing the main issues and instead started talking about some cultivation-related issues.
Both Divine Venerable Moyu and Man Hong are renowned True God powerhouses with millennia of history. Although they have not yet reached the Emperor Level, they are at least on the same level as Long Ao. Their guidance is of great benefit to Chen Mu and Mingye.
The four guests stayed in the Wood Nether Hall for several hours, until evening, when they finally took their leave.
However, Gu Ningbi stayed behind because after Chen Mu broke through to the True God Realm, his mastery of Dao of Talismans arts had greatly improved, and he was confident that he could repair Gu Ningbi's Divine Soul injuries.
