Chapter 98: The Ascension of Empress Leng Yanran!

"Cough, it's better when it's larger… Larger hurts… it hurts." Chen Daoxuan couldn't help but cough lightly upon hearing their words.

"Oh, right. Here, take this 'Greater Compassion Mantra: Liberation I.' The Heavenly Dao Pavilion always emphasizes a clear beginning and end in our actions."

Chen Daoxuan spent twenty more system points and exchanged two copies of the "Greater Compassion Mantra: Liberation I" from the store, tossing one copy to each of them.

Although such a low-level salvation technique could be learned from a single copy by both of them, 10 system points were no longer of concern to him.

This time, with the remnants of the Ren Clan in the Eastern Domain, it was estimated he would make another substantial fortune. Moreover, once Chi Yun settled everything in the Northern Domain, hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of system points would flow in annually. Such a sum was hardly a concern for him.

Salvation was indeed a significant matter! After all, every enemy who perished at his hand or his disciples' hands were all undoubtedly good people who sacrificed their lives to contribute system points. He couldn't help but love it!

In his eyes, apart from his disciples and those close to him, the dearest individuals in this world were those benevolent contributors of system points. Therefore, after their deaths, he must diligently save these benefactors… disperse their ashes, fertilize the surrounding plants, and accumulate some final merits for them!

"Master, we are prepared," they said after a while, returning from the main hall, each already donning a few sets of personal clothing. During this time, Chen Daoxuan had spent some system points for Li Yourong to exchange for several outfits placed within the Spirit Pond Hall.

"Go, remember Master's advice," Chen Daoxuan nodded slightly, saying no more.

"Yes, Master's words are etched in the heart of disciple,"

Leng Yanran said, taken aback for a moment. Was Master reminding her that she should show no mercy, not even leaving a single survivor, not even the corpses, right?

"Off to play down the mountain!"

Li Yourong joyfully shouted and then pulled her Senior Sister, heading down the mountain. For a moment, only Chen Daoxuan and the Enlightenment Tea tree remained in front of the Heavenly Dao Hall.

"Remember, prioritize your safety above all else. Well, they've already run off without letting me finish. These disciples of mine are quite impatient."

Lying on the Enlightenment Vine Chair, Chen Daoxuan murmured for a moment. He shook his head, not dwelling on it further, and drifted into a peaceful slumber…

…

From the Illusory Mountain in the Northern Domain to the Eastern Domain, the two of them did not rush. Especially for Li Yourong, who had hardly seen the scenery below the mountain.

During the journey, they combined travel and exploration. It might take them over half a month to arrive at their destination.

As for Chi Yun, it took him less than half a day to reach the Leng Family in the Moro Kingdom.

Leng Family, Assembly Hall.

"Senior, are you saying you were sent by Yanran's Master? I wonder what instructions the Senior has?"

Family Head Leng Zhan respectfully stood on the side, asking Chi Yun, who was seated at the main seat.

After Leng Yanran's suppression of the Luo Heaven Sect that day, even though they had lost contact with her, the Leng Family continued to reap immense benefits. Inside the Moro Kingdom, they enjoyed treatment nearly equivalent to royalty. They even consulted with the Moro Kingdom's Emperor, Emperor Wu Feiyang, on various important matters.

"Senior's intentions are not something we underlings can inquire about. Why hasn't the Emperor of the Moro Kingdom arrived yet?"

Chi Yun wasn't inclined to explain, but out of respect for the senior lady, he didn't show excessive rudeness to the Leng Family. With his boundless realm, sweeping through the Northern Domain was a simple feat, let alone waiting for a mere emperor in this tiny Moro Kingdom!

"Moro Kingdom's Emperor, Wu Feiyang, pays respect to Senior Chi Yunzi (Scarlet Cloud Immortal)."

Just as Chi Yun was growing impatient and even considering heading directly to the palace to apprehend the emperor, a profound voice echoed in. Wu Feiyang stood tall, entering the hall with measured steps and respectfully bowed to Chi Yun.

"Chi Yunzi has already passed away. I am a menial disciple of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, Chi Yun," Chi Yun raised an eyebrow slightly, correcting his address.

"Yes, I pay my respects to Senior Chi Yun. May I inquire why Senior has come to our small Moro Kingdom? I will do my utmost to assist,"

Wu Feiyang didn't dare assert his status before Chi Yun, fully aware that he was facing a formidable existence in the boundless realm, capable of sweeping through the Northern Domain.

Hearing his words, Chi Yun stroked his chin, lost in thought. Although the Pavilion Master simply instructed him to consolidate the forces in the Northern Domain, he hadn't provided a detailed plan. It seemed to be a test for him!

Given this, he had to execute the Pavilion Master's orders impeccably. The Pavilion Master was like a divine being, already beyond concerns of fame and wealth. Using the Pavilion Master's reputation to gather these forces would tarnish his grandeur. But it wouldn't be appropriate for Chi Yun to personally unify the Northern Domain in his own name either.

"I've got it! The Senior Miss is from the Northern Domain. Why not use her name?"

Chi Yun's eyes lit up as he finally thought of a mutually beneficial solution. This way, he could unite the Northern Domain in the Senior Miss's name, and the Pavilion Master would also be pleased to see his disciple's reputation spread throughout the region. It was perfect, absolutely perfect!

Chi Yun's heart felt a sudden clarity.

"Starting today, the Northern Domain will be overseen by the Heavenly Dao Pavilion. The direct disciple of the Pavilion Master, Fairy Leng Yanran, will take charge. Honoring her as the Empress of the Northern Domain, you will submit twenty percent of your heavenly treasures each year and enjoy the protection of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion!

"Notify all third-rate or higher sects and forces in the Northern Domain and the capital immediately."

Chi Yun's expression grew grave. With measured words, he announced his declaration to the Leng Family and the present Wu Feiyang.

For a moment, the people in the hall were stunned, then the members of the Leng Family broke into joyous exclamations.

Even though Leng Yanran had lost contact with her family, other aristocratic families were unaware of this relationship! If Leng Yanran were to become the Empress of the Northern Domain, wouldn't the Leng Family become the chief family in the Northern Domain?

"Don't worry, Senior. The Leng Family will take care of this immediately!"

Before Wu Feiyang could respond, Leng Zhan preemptively knelt on one knee, showing his determination.

"Do you have any objections?"

After Leng Zhan left as instructed by Chi Yun, Chi Yun turned to Wu Feiyang, who hadn't yet spoken.

"This… No, I don't. It's just that while the Northern Domain may not be particularly strong, it's quite chaotic. I'm afraid not everyone will readily accept this proposal?"

After a moment of contemplation, Wu Feiyang expressed his concerns. Even though Leng Yanran becoming the Empress would be beneficial for him, as the Emperor of the Moro Kingdom, he wouldn't outright oppose the idea.

"Hmph, this is not your concern. Even though I may only be an insignificant disciple in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, in the Northern Domain… hehe…"

Chi Yun snorted coldly, already determined to handle this matter perfectly. He couldn't allow it to tarnish the reputation of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion. If someone dared to challenge it, he would simply say sorry and use the scripture of salvation given by the Pavilion Master!

With these thoughts in mind, while Leng Yanran was traveling to the Eastern Domain with her Junior Sister, unbeknownst to her, she was silently ascending to the position of Empress in the Northern Domain...
