In the imperial study, the Emperor, Jiang Han, put down the memorial and let out a long breath. He muttered, “What a difficult task. King Han is right. It might not be a good thing to be the emperor.”

He turned to look at the small cauldron by the table and asked, “How long before the Qiangliang Race arrives at the Barren Province?”

“Less than three months.”

The Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad answered, causing Jiang Han to frown.

The Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad could predict everything, but it was not absolutely accurate. There would always be deviations. However, this also meant that the Qiangliang Race was not far away.

Jiang Han took a deep breath and his eyes were firm as he muttered to himself, “We will make our ancestors proud of us in this battle. Humans should be running rampant in the Great Wilderness, not lying dormant at the edge.” He stood up and left with the Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad.

Before he died, Jiang Liu had imparted two things to him. One was the Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad, and the other was a secret that could save Great Jing.

It was precisely because of these two things that even though Jiang Han was nervous, he was also full of confidence.

Qiangliang Race, let me see the strength of the other races in the Great Wilderness!

In July, the Emperor announced that the racial war was about to begin. Other than the border provinces, the armies of the other provinces must immediately teleport to the Barren Province to prepare to fight against the Qiangliang Race.

Everyone was excited!

Great Jing had been concealing its strength for hundreds of years. The citizens of Great Jing had been looking forward to such a battle for many years.

Ever since they came to the Great Wilderness, Great Jing had grown rapidly.

Every year, a large number of geniuses would appear. Even so, there had never been a situation of a single genius suppressing their peers. This was because Great Jing was powerful enough and there were many geniuses. Therefore, everyone wanted to use this battle to prove themselves.

Longqi Mountain, in the courtyard.

Mu Lingluo, Ji Wujun, Ye Xun, and the Sword God went down the mountain together. Mu Lingluo was going to lead the Mu Family while Ji Wujun and the other two rushed to the Barren Province to participate in the war. Other than wanting to join in on the fun, they also wanted to obtain the corpses of the Qiangliang Race.

Jiang Tianming crossed his arms in front of his chest and snorted. “I’m not playing anymore. Damn it, why did the Qiangliang Race come so early? I haven’t reached the Martial King realm yet.”

Bai Qi rolled her eyes and said, “Do you think you’re the son of heaven? Do you think everything in the world revolves around you?”

Jiang Tianming grinned and said, “I am not the son of the heavens. I am the heavens.”

Bai Qi was too lazy to argue with him. The main reason for this was that she could not defeat him, so she could only choose to avoid him.

Golden Crow landed on the ground and asked, “Master, can I go out and fight them?”

Ever since its bloodline transformed, it had been eager to fight and see how strong it was.

Jiang Changsheng said, “Sure. Catch up with Lingluo and follow her in the future.’

Golden Crow was overjoyed. It hesitated asking for permission to go out for a long time because it was afraid that Jiang Changsheng would reject it. With a positive answer, it immediately flew down the mountain and chased after Mu Lingluo.

“Master is so kind to Miss Mu. If you can be so kind to me in the future, I will definitely sacrifice my life for you, ” Bai Qi said pitifully.

Jiang Changsheng remained silent.

Jiang Tianming shouted, “How are you worthy of my great-grandfather? You can’t even transform. Stop daydreaming! ”

Bai Qi went crazy and said, “It’s none of your business!” “This is my Jiang Family’s business. How can I not get involved?”

“Haha, do you dare to control your great-grandfather?”

“I don’t dare…”

Jiang Tianming choked and carefully looked at Jiang Changsheng.

Coincidentally, he met Jiang Changsheng’s gaze. He was so frightened that he immediately turned around and began to meditate silently.

Jiang Changsheng calmly said, “Bai Qi, don’t think about trivial things all day long. Work hard to become stronger. You’re too weak.”

Bai Qi came over and said with grievance, “I also want to be like Golden Crow.” Jiang Changsheng said, “You are not devout enough.’

With that said, he closed his eyes and trained.

Bai Qi was surprised. Devout?

What did that mean?

At dusk, a majestic city sat on the endless plain. There were many martial artists flying in the sky, carrying all kinds of equipment. On the ground were military tents that stretched as far as the eye could see.

Barren Province City.

This city was the largest city in the entire Great Jing. Every city was a prefecture, and there were teleportation arrays on all the streets of the city. The arrays shone like stars.

One of the teleportation arrays was activated, and the armored Jiang Luo led a group of personal guards out. He looked to be in his forties or fifties, looking dignified and domineering, attracting curious gazes from the martial artists passing by.

“Isn’t this King Han?”

A chuckle sounded. Jiang Luo turned around and smiled.

Xu Tianji came with his generals. He was from Longqi Mountain and had once trained under the Dao Ancestor. He has served Great Jing ever since the reign of Emperor Taizong. Today, he was still the most influential general in Great

Jing. No one could compare to him, and even the Emperor had to give him face. Jiang Luo walked up and smiled. “General Xu, did you happen to pass by?”

Xu Tianji shook his head and said, “Naturally, I’m here to welcome you. After all, you’re a prince, and your arrival is naturally not a small matter. Let’s go and meet up with our old friends. It has been many years since we last met after the war in Donghai.”

He grabbed Jiang Luo’s wrist enthusiastically and pulled him away.

Jiang Luo was equally happy to see his old comrade. The two of them chatted and laughed along the way, which aroused the curiosity of the passing martial artists. Those who recognized their identities changed their expressions, but they did not dare to approach rashly.

Jiang Luo was not the only one. More and more important figures had arrived, and there were also many vassal kings. Everyone in the Jiang Family practiced martial arts. Whether they were ambitious or not, they all wanted to make contributions. After all, this was the Jiang Family’s land.

Jiang Ye also came.

There were only a few personal guards following behind him. The White Spirit Sky Monkey stood on his shoulder and looked around.

“Little Yezi, I didn’t expect that the Human Race would have so many experts.” White Spirit Sky Monkey exclaimed.

The number of Grotto-heaven realm experts in the Barren Province had exceeded a thousand, and it was still increasing. Many of them even exceeded the Five Grotto-heaven realm.

Jiang Ye smiled and said, “Ot course. The holy lands ot martial arts in Great Jing hide a lot of powerful martial artists.”

The White Spirit Sky Monkey muttered, “Unfortunately, we lack an expert who can decide the fate of battle.’

Jiang Ye pretended not to hear and walked forward, appreciating the scenery along the way.

Due to the arrival of a large number of troops, sects, and aristocratic families, a large number of street stalls began to appear in the Barren Province. The government also allowed this. After all, during special times, it was a good thing for more participants of the battle to obtain satisfactory weapons and martial arts techniques.

Looking at the crowd, Jiang Ye was frightened by Great Jing’s foundation. He knew that Great Jing was very strong, but when the forces of the various provinces gathered, he was shocked.

“Isn’t that the person on the Dao Ancestor Mountain?!”

The White Spirit Sky Monkey suddenly shouted and pointed.

Jiang Ye followed its gaze and looked over. Ji Wujun, Ye Xun, and the Sword

God were shopping, followed by a group of Longqi Mountain disciples. Jiang Changsheng’s two disciples, Huang Chuan and Ling Xiao, were also there. They had good talent and relied on the Heaven-Deriving Martial Law to hunt all year round. Therefore, they had also reached the One Grotto-heaven realm.

Jiang Ye hesitated for a moment before he went up to greet them.

In the provincial minister’s mansion, the Emperor, Jiang Han, stood on the steps and looked down at the city. Standing here, one could feel the lofty sentiments of looking at all the mountains and facing the setting sun at the end of the world.

The provincial minister stood by Jiang Han’s side and persuaded, “Your Majesty, you’d better go back. There’s no need for you to participate in the war personally. Even if you participate, your achievements will not be affected.”

Jiang Han said, “I have made up my mind. There is no need to persuade me.

Otherwise, don’t blame me for disregarding the former Emperor’s feelings.”

The provincial minister forced a smile. He was an old official under Jing Anzong. He was basically relying on his seniority to persuade the Emperor, but he did not expect Jiang Han to be so determined.

Jiang Han held the Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad with both hands, his eyes filled with anticipation.

The provincial minister glanced at the Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad and was secretly curious.

When the treasure in Jing Anzong’s hands was passed on to the current emperor, the latter also loved it very much. This news had long spread and there were many speculations among the people. Some even said that there was a demon in the small cauldron that controlled the hearts of the two emperors.

Those who dared to ask about it in person would not have a good ending.

The provincial minister could only restrain his curiosity

“I suddenly understand Taizong and Tianzong’s war-favoring mindset. How

could such courage not sweep the world by storm?”

Jiang Han suddenly smiled. His smile was filled with arrogance and conceit. The birthmark between his eyebrows was like a third eye that could open at any time, causing the provincial minister to be in a trance.

In the past, the Emperor was not so heroic.

If this war was successful, perhaps Great Jing would turn to a new page in the history book!

The conflicts within the dynasty would also be shifted away.

At the thought of this, the provincial minister was overwhelmed with emotions. He felt as if he was witnessing history.

As the days passed, more and more people came to the Barren Province. There were even some civilian martial artists who came uninvited. Naturally, the Emperor was happy about that. He asked the provincial minister to register them and arrange for them to be sent to the army camps.

It was now September.

The weather gradually became hot, and a sandstorm swept over from the end of the horizon, indicating that a huge war was about to begin.

When the news from the front line reached the ears of the Emperor, he began to rub his palms.

The commander of the entire army was Xu Tianji. He had built a thousand-foot-tall pagoda at the camp. Looking into the distance, the Ten

Thousand Mile Condors flew in and out, along with the White-robed Guards.

Even though the war had yet to start, the entire army of Great Jing was all looking forward to it. All the soldiers were waiting for the war to arrive. “Hmph, I didn’t expect humans to dare to wait for us here!”

A contemptuous snort resounded between heaven and earth, disturbing the army of Great Jing. Everyone in the Barren Province City could hear it.

The Emperor immediately walked out of the palace with the Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad in his hands. Looking at what was in front of him, his expression changed drastically.

Following his gaze, the sky in the distance was covered by dust storms, making it a spectacular sight. In the dust storms, majestic figures could be vaguely seen. This was the Barren Province City, and he could already sense how huge it was even from the provincial minister’s mansion, not to mention the front line tens of thousands of miles away.

Not only were there huge shadows walking in the dust storms, but there were also huge shadows flying in the air. All of them looked as terrifying as Satan. It was hard to measure how tall they were, as just the sight of them made one feel insignificant.

“Qiang… Qiangliang Race?”

Jiang Han was shocked. He was frightened by the Qiangliang Race.

In front of a military tent, Tiang Ye frowned and asked in a low voice. “Why are those from the Qiangliang Race so big?”

The White Spirit Sky Monkey trembled and said, “What do you think? I’ve already said that the Qiangliang Race is very powerful. However, they should not be as huge as they look now. I reckon it has something to do with their martial arts technique. In reality, they are not that huge. This is probably a deterrence method that the Qiangliang Race would use to make those who wish to fight them abandon the war.”

Jiang Ye turned around and saw that the military camps had fallen into silence. All the high-ranking officers were dumbfounded and trembling.

The size of the enemy had caused the confident soldiers of Great Jing to fall into fear.

At that moment, the soldiers of Great Jing were equally puzzled.

What on earth were they facing?
