Because in the past few days, many sensational events have occurred in Chaoge, which have shaken the Yin Shang.

All the feudal lords in the land trembled at the mere mention of his name.

One of the items brought by the Dragon King Ao Guang of the East Sea, has already been opened.

It is filled with incredibly well-preserved seafood delicacies.

There are countless kinds of fish, shrimp, crabs, seaweed, and so on.

Not only are they extremely numerous, but they are also remarkably well-preserved.

Everything was incredibly delicious seafood.

The Human Emperor of Chaoge has already spoken.

All these seafood delicacies will be bestowed upon the people of the Yin Shang dynasty.

To help the people avoid the disaster of famine.

The people across the land were filled with righteous indignation and boundless excitement.

In addition, when Bi Gan's uncle opened the granaries to distribute grain, he secretly investigated many corrupt officials.

The Human Emperor was shocked and furious, and ordered a thorough investigation. The investigation uncovered a large number of shockingly corrupt officials.

For example, Fei Zhong and You Hun, along with their entire families, had already been executed.

All their property was confiscated.

The amount of grain and various treasures seized from their homes was countless.

For a time, all the civil and military officials in the court were in danger, and they all offered up all the wealth that their families had accumulated over the years.

The numbers are terrifying.

It is said that the Human Emperor was furious on the spot and, holding the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, gave all the civil and military officials a good beating.

Many ministers were beaten so badly they were bedridden and in unbearable pain.

Later, the Human Emperor said that these supplies would also be used for disaster relief.

With those enormous quantities of seafood and the massive amounts of grain seized from their homes.

This was enough to support the people of the Yin Shang until the autumn harvest.

For more than two months now, the land of Yin Shang has enjoyed favorable weather and abundant harvests.

His Human Emperor has been distributing grain from the granaries for over two months now.

With the addition of Chaoge's massive resources, they can easily sustain themselves until then.

At that time, the Yin Shang Dynasty will experience an unprecedented harvest.

All the people were beaming with joy, feeling that there was hope for the future.

With His Majesty being so wise and virtuous, who wouldn't sing praises of his merits?

For a time, the entire Yin Shang Dynasty was bustling with activity.

The feudal lords from all over the land were terrified at the sight.

They followed suit and opened their granaries to distribute grain.

Anyone who disobeys may very well attract the army of the Yin Shang.

Little did they know that Huang Feihu was leading that terrifying War Elephant Cavalry to guard the Jizhou side.

Meanwhile, Su Daji, the Fox Lord of Green Mound, also returned from Green Mound.

Many women of the Demon Fox Clan have already changed their names and integrated into the territory of the Yin Shang Dynasty.

Most of these women were young, beautiful, and Wushuang charming.

It was naturally easy to come into contact with various clans, wealthy and powerful people, and so on.

In this way, gathering information becomes naturally a piece of cake.

Various spirit foxes that have gained sentience and are used to transmit messages have also been released.

Given enough time, a dark network could be laid out in the shadows throughout the entire Yin Shang and Shang dynasties.

By then, no matter what happens in the Yin Shang dynasty, it will not escape Ye Xuan's keen eyes.

All of this naturally greatly shocked Nuwa, who was in the Wa Huang Palace.

To everyone's surprise, she made a trip to Kunlun Mountain and then to the Purple Cloud Palace.

The Human Emperor actually caused such a commotion with that fox demon.

They are indeed not to be underestimated.

While everyone was busy...

Ye Xuan ordered Wushuang to guard his palace at all costs.

But he had already sneaked out again.

Now, he is riding on auspicious clouds, flying westward.

This time, their goal in entering the Primordial World again was to target Yuanfeng's corpse.

He needed to hurry and complete the second task of the Corpse-Driving System.

After all, the more and faster he completes missions, the faster his strength can improve.

It must be said that he was quite incompetent as a Human Emperor.

The dignified Human Emperor, instead of staying obediently in Chaoge, always disguised himself as Wuming and wandered Wuming throughout the Primordial World.

When traversing the Primordial World, he left Chaoge and went to the West with Nuwa, where he cursed Zhunti and chased away the dragon corpse on Mount Sumeru, completing the system's first task.

Later, he transformed into Wuming and left Chaoge twice, traveling to the East Sea Dragon Clan to enlighten the Dragon King Ao Guang of the East Sea and subdue the Four Seas Dragon Clan.

Later, he left Chaoge three times and went north to Jizhou. In Jizhou City, he saw Daji and learned the secret that Jizhou would never pay tribute to the Shang.

The main reason for his current departure from Chaoge is for the second task of the Corpse-Driving System: Yuanfeng.

Having already obtained the Ancestral Dragon, he naturally had long coveted the Yuanfeng.

Obtaining the Yuanfeng means you'll have both a dragon and a phoenix.

However, the second task of the Corpse-Driving System did not tell him the location of Yuanfeng's body.

He must be made to find it himself.

The vast, boundless Primordial World —where could he possibly search?

Even Kong Xuan, who was tasked with activating the second system mission, was nowhere to be found.

However, he had his own ideas.

Since he can't find it, someone else certainly can.

That is the Bai Ze from Kunlun Mountain.

A reclusive female immortal, the Queen Mother of the West, lives on the Kunlun Immortal Mountain, a place she has not shown herself for a long time.

The Queen Mother of the West had many divine beasts under her command, and Bai Ze was one of them.

Bai Ze is an extremely famous ancient auspicious beast, knowledgeable in Tongtian and geography, and all-knowing.

It can see into the past and know into the future; there is nothing in the world that it does not know.

Since he couldn't find Yuanfeng, going to Kunlun to find Bai Ze was the best option.

Ye Xuan, now Wuming, headed straight west, for Kunlun was located in the far west.

It can almost be considered the boundary between the western and eastern parts of the Primordial World.

That place is also a melting pot of all sorts of people.

Many powerful beings from ancient times are hiding there, including the Queen Mother of the West, who is the main target of this operation.

Ye Xuan, now Wuming, rode on auspicious clouds and soared upwards, heading westward.

I don't know how much time passed before we finally got close to the Kunlun Mountain.

From afar, the Kunlun Mountain appeared extremely majestic.

That majestic and powerful aura was truly awe-inspiring.

The majestic Kunlun Mountains rise straight into the Yunxiao, shining brightly through all four seasons, setting an example for eternity.

The overwhelming sense of vastness and immensity that greets you inspires awe.

Since the collapse of Buzhou Mountain in ancient times, no other sacred mountain has been able to rival Kunlun.

Kunlun became the undisputed head of all mountains.

As soon as he got close, Ye Xuan saw countless auspicious beasts frolicking in the mountains.

Auspicious clouds blanketed the scene, sunlight streamed down, and mythical beasts frolicked—it was truly a magnificent sight.

As Ye Xuan approached the main peak, he discovered that the mountain peak pierced the Yunxiao and stood tall between heaven and earth.

Ye Xuan rode the clouds and soared above, passing through endless auspicious clouds, before finally seeing a completely different world.

A fairy island floats atop the Kunlun Mountain.

An unfathomable, ethereal aura rose from the fairy island.

It truly is as if a gentle breeze blows through an empty valley, and mist rises from a deep ravine.

Looking down, the sea of clouds rolls and surges; gazing into the distance, the mountains are shrouded in mist and ethereal beauty.

In addition, Ye Xuan also sensed several incredibly powerful and majestic auras on this huge mountaintop island.

Perhaps they are the powerful individuals who have secluded themselves here.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xuan was indeed somewhat envious.

This place is much better than his Chaoge.

Although Chaoge is also an ancient and majestic city, a gathering place of human fortune.

However, in terms of scenic beauty, it is far inferior to this place.

Ye Xuan wandered around, admiring the beautiful scenery.

Surprisingly, they didn't discover any powerful figures after this entire journey.

Where exactly is the Queen Mother of the West?

Ye Xuan wandered around, pondering the message from the Queen Mother of the West.

In ancient times, she was the Head of Female Immortals in the Primordial World.

The Queen Mother of the West's words were obeyed as sacred decrees by all the female immortals of the Primordial World.

Later, the King Father of the East, who was the Head of Male Immortals, perished at the hands of the Demon Clan.

The Queen Mother of the West then went into seclusion.

The current leaders of the Primordial World immortals are probably Haotian and Yaochi, right?

Ye Xuan gave a cold laugh.

Those two despicable bastards will be killed sooner or later!

Just then, a young girl in her teens suddenly flew in from afar, riding on auspicious clouds.

Upon approaching, he gave Ye Xuan a slight bow.
