Xiqi Rebels, Incurring the Wrath of Humans and Gods
Meanwhile, Ji Chang remained silent, staring at the pot of succulent meat soup before him.
The soup was incredibly delicious and still steaming. He stood there, his face pale and his expression complicated.
He hated himself to the core, or rather, he was utterly disappointed in himself.
He never imagined that after getting involved with this substance, he would fall into such a state of depravity. He knew he was completely addicted and unable to extricate himself.
I'm afraid I'll have to rely on this kind of thing to survive for the rest of my life.
He also called himself a great sage of Xiqi?
What a load of rubbish about being a great sage of Xiqi!
At this moment, his face was quite gloomy, his eyes revealed a crazy killing intent and his face was full of ferocity.
Where is the air of a great man now?
He's clearly just a madman driven to a frenzy by revenge.
After a moment of inner turmoil, he finally sighed.
Standing before her, she finally picked up a piece of succulent, fresh meat, and upon tasting it, she found the meat incredibly tender and delicious.
It seemed even more tender and delicious than the delicacies he had eaten in Chaoge, soft and juicy, melting in his mouth, truly a world-class delicacy.
Only then did Marquis Ji Chang of the West, reveal a look of rapture on his face; this was exactly the taste.
His luck had already completely run out, so it didn't matter anymore.
Once again, Ji Chang, savoring the delicious taste, stood before the meat soup and devoured it.
In the end, he finished the whole pot of tender and delicious food, and even drank the broth.
At that moment, he felt extremely warm and comfortable, and his body seemed to have a lot of strength.
Touching his round belly, he lay down once again on that familiar yet unfamiliar bed and quickly fell into a deep sleep.
This time he slept incredibly soundly and peacefully.
In your own home, in your own bed, eat and drink your fill, and have a good night's sleep.
Isn't that a wonderful thing?
While he was sleeping, he soon had a nightmare that made him break out in a cold sweat.
In that nightmare.
He was in Xiqi City, holding a banquet with numerous civil and military officials in a high and mighty manner.
Maids roamed about, singers danced, and countless civil and military officials were present. Everyone was incredibly excited, singing and dancing.
In addition, his ninety-nine sons and his last adopted son also presented congratulatory gifts.
However, at that moment, his eldest son, whom he favored the most, stared at him intently, making him feel uneasy.
The next moment, he lay stiffly on the main hall, like a walking corpse, his body gradually decaying.
After a long while, the eldest son slowly exhaled, and this exhalation lasted for half an hour.
At first, I exhaled ordinary, clear air; later, I exhaled turbid air; then, I exhaled the essence of my body; and finally, I exhaled blood.
With that last breath, Bo Yikao died instantly in the main hall, never to live again.
As the saying goes, "Accumulated soul and eroded bones, dying without illness."
Ji Chang, still asleep, looked utterly incredulous.
This is his favorite son, why would he do this?
For countless years, he had strictly disciplined his son, and now that his son was finally about to achieve great things, why did he die like this?
He was incredulous in his sleep.
"My son Ji Kao has always been strong and healthy, and he was taught the art of Qi cultivation by an immortal. How could he have died so suddenly? Why did this happen? Why did this happen?"
Lost in his sleep, he kicked the table in front of him and staggered toward his son.
"I don't believe my son died like this! I don't believe it! Give me back my son's life! Give me back my son's life!"
In his dream, he completely broke down, falling to the ground and unable to get up for a long time.
How could he believe that his favorite son had died so suddenly?
"My son Ji Kao --------"
Ji Chang cried his heart out in his sleep, and then suddenly woke up.
His face paled, and he finally realized that he had been having a nightmare.
His son had already died in Chaoge.
He had to avenge his son.
He had to avenge his son no matter what.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to face his son in the Yellow Springs.
Early the next morning.
Marquis Ji Chang of the West got up early and then presided over a grand meeting.
He also informed everyone that his son had died in Chaoge.
Everyone naturally felt the same way.
Although they already knew about this, it was different when the Marquis himself said it.
In an instant, Xiqi was filled with cries of despair.
It should be noted that Bo Yikao enjoyed an extremely high reputation in Xiqi.
Now that he has been murdered in Chaoge, how could this not infuriate people?
It was like a stone thrown into a still pond causing a thousand ripples.
This matter is neither too big nor too small. To put it bluntly, the Yin Shang emperor was a despicable and shameless tyrant who killed the son of the holy ruler of Xiqi.
To put it simply, it was just that the Human Emperor of Chaoge executed a minister of Xiqi.
How things will unfold depends entirely on Xiqi's attitude.
If Xiqi were to publicize this widely, then this matter would become much bigger.
This news could even sweep the entire world.
If Xiqi doesn't react, this matter will probably be suppressed soon.
However, it is clear that Xiqi did not suppress the spread of this matter.
In just over ten days, it has stirred up a huge uproar.
The people of Xiqi, in particular, were filled with resentment.
That damned, incompetent ruler actually caused the death of Bo Yikao?
This naturally infuriated them.
The people of Xiqi were, in a sense, ignorant.
For countless years, Xiqi has demonized Chaoge.
Chaoge is a gathering place for demons and monsters.
The current Human Emperor is an utterly vile and brutal being.
The heroic deeds of the Human Emperor did not spread in Xiqi at all.
This resulted in the people of Xiqi being completely ignorant.
They all regarded Marquis Ji Chang of the West, as their savior.
At this point, how could they not be enraged that the tyrannical ruler of Chaoge had actually killed the savior's son?
The crowd was filled with indignation and grievances, shouting that they wanted to avenge Bo Yikao.
There was no need for the Marquis of the West to stop them; these people were already itching to attack Chaoge and avenge the eldest son.
It must be said that the Marquis of the West's methods of controlling public opinion were indeed quite formidable.
Marquis Ji Chang of the West, was naturally delighted with this situation.
The more hatred his people have for Chaoge, the smoother his uprising will be.
A few days later, Ji Chang issued edicts throughout Xiqi territory.
The edict listed numerous crimes committed by the current Human Emperor.
The first charge is that the current Human Emperor Di Xin of Shang, is cruel and tyrannical, bloodthirsty, and enjoys indiscriminately killing innocent people.
Many court officials died at the hands of this man.
Three million people in Jizhou and tens of millions of people in the territories of the North Sea Seventy-Two Feudal Lords died under the Human Emperor's butcher's knife.
Such a cruel and tyrannical ruler is abhorrent to both gods and men, and deserves to be punished by heaven and earth.
The second charge is that the current tyrant is a depraved, licentious, and lustful villain.
Back when they were at the Nuwa Temple, they actually publicly blasphemed the Saint Nuwa.
That poem is still Nuwa Temple; it's utterly disgusting and absurd.
Such an insult to the Holy Mother of the Human Race is a crime deserving of death, and the people of the world should unite to exterminate him.
The third charge is that the current Human Emperor is a cunning, greedy, and shameless man by nature.
Under the guise of seeking advice on governance, they invited Marquis Ji Chang of the West, to Chaoge, but instead imprisoned Ji Chang in Youli City.
His main purpose was to get Xiqi to offer a large amount of pearls, treasures, and grains to Chaoge, which shows that he was a greedy person by nature.
Furthermore, he was insatiably greedy, plundering the people's wealth and causing their lives to be extremely miserable; he was utterly incompetent.
The fourth charge is that he murdered Boyi Kao, the eldest Bo Yikao of Xiqi, on trumped-up charges.
Bo Yikao brought a large amount of gold and silver treasures to Chaoge in order to see his father, hoping that the Human Emperor would treat the Holy Lord of Xiqi well.
However, he was framed by the Human Emperor on trumped-up charges and ultimately died in Chaoge, arousing the wrath of both gods and men.
