Sheng Fu

The next day, early in the morning.

The morning mist was ethereal, and the vast city was peaceful and serene.

The breakfast stalls on the street have already started calling out their wares. What's truly gratifying is that dozens of babies have been born in the city of Vast Expanse recently.

No human infants have been born in Frostmoon City and Taicang City yet.

It is estimated that after a while, babies will be born, adding a touch of optimism to these three cities.

Inside the city lord's mansion, Li Hongshan, Yue Bo, Chen Xuan, Zhong Yi, and others gathered.

Jing Peiyao also gave up the chair and stood beside Yuwen Jun.

Wu Mi, Liu Qinghua, and Dugu Li stood side by side.

Without Gao Zhi and Guo Shenghe here, it feels a bit less lively, but thankfully, today is a big day to be happy about.

Li Hongshan glanced tentatively at Yuwen Jun, while Yue Bo remained silent, waiting for the next words.

Last night, in the Black Mountain region of the Demon Realm, the Myriad Spirits True Essence and the Purple Star True Essence bloomed simultaneously, naturally alarming Li Hongshan and Yue Bo. It is likely that by now, all the Limitless Powerhouses within the entire human realm are aware of the news.

As for the details, no one knows for the time being.

"What does the Grand Preceptor have to say?" Yuwen Jun asked jokingly, feeling that Li Hongshan's gaze was somewhat barbed.

Last night, Yuwen Jun and Dugu Li returned to Haomiao City.

Jing Peiyao already knew what had happened, but at this moment, Yuwen Jun was in charge, so Jing Peiyao couldn't speak rashly.

Li Hongshan feigned composure and said, "That depends on whether Your Highness is willing to be frank and open."

Yuwen Jun laughed heartily and said, "The Grand Preceptor is indeed witty and insightful. To tell you the truth, last night His Majesty the Human Emperor and His Majesty the Spirit Emperor attacked simultaneously and killed a giant celestial python."

"This is a very nutritious food."

"I returned to the Divine Realm to bring back this highly nourishing substance for the soldiers."

A colossal serpent from the heavens!?
Upon hearing this, Li Hongshan and Yue Bo were immediately overwhelmed with shock.

"In this era, there can still be a Heavenly Nether Python?" Yue Bo asked in surprise and doubt.

Yuwen Jun coughed, not intending to respond too much to this matter, and said with a smile, "Everyone, just focus on eating the meat. As for the specific details, you will naturally find out later."

"However, this Heavenly Nether Python was a supreme expert, and it was also empowered by pure Netherworld True Essence. Even though it has died, its residual power still remains. So how should it be cooked?"

"This time, everyone who sees it will get a share."

"Ordinary soldiers drink soup, accompanied by appropriate pieces of meat."

"As for the generals, they should eat more meat. I speculate that after cooking the Heavenly Python, it will be enough to enable some of the soldiers to break through their shackles and reach new heights."

"Who knows, another group of Lingxiao experts might emerge."

Upon hearing this, everyone present had a gleam in their eyes, and their anticipation grew even stronger.

Rather than a reward, this was a rare and fortunate opportunity for the soldiers.

Li Hongshan pondered and said, "This matter needs to be handled with care. We must not be hasty or careless. In my opinion, we might as well ask that old man Guo how to add seasonings and how to cook it. There is a lot of knowledge involved."

Yuwen Jun chuckled and said, "Your Excellency the Grand Preceptor is so learned and wise, surely you do not understand?"

Li Hongshan frowned slightly and said irritably, "If Your Highness doesn't understand, how could I?"

Yuwen Jun stopped teasing Li Hongshan and, after thinking it over, said, "That's true. The inner core of this Heavenly Nether Python contains pure Netherworld True Essence and Netherworld Bloodline. It must be treated with caution."

"I wonder if Commander Yue Bo would be willing to personally invite Master Guo to come here and oversee the culinary endeavors?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Bo immediately grinned and said, "That's easy. I'll be right back."

Having said that, Yue Bo immediately traversed the void and left the place. Yuwen Jun then continued, "After the cooking is complete, we need to take out an appropriate amount of soup and distribute it to the people of the three cities. What do you all think?"

Li Hongshan asked with a suspicious look, "How big of a python is it? Can you even divide it up?"

Yuwen Jun said, "The main body should be very large. Because of the blessing of the Netherworld True Essence, its therapeutic effect is excellent. Ordinary people can probably cleanse their marrow and prolong their lives after drinking a sip, and clear many blocked meridians in their bodies."

"This move is also to pay tribute to the new policy."

"Everyone is equal, and everyone has a share."

"As for who eats more and who eats less, it is determined by merit. For example, the Grand Preceptor has worked hard and made great contributions, so he should naturally eat a big bowl of meat."

Upon hearing this, another burst of laughter erupted in the hall.

Li Hongshan felt that the young master of the Dragon Clan was increasingly disregarding him, the Grand Preceptor of the Human Clan...

“Since there is enough food, then everyone should have some,” replied the Imperial Advisor, Li Hongshan.

Yuwen Jun looked at Zhang Benchu ​​and Yan Zhao and ordered, "You two go to Lianheng Mountain immediately to set up the venue."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Benchu ​​and Yan Zhao clasped their hands in a respectful gesture and replied firmly, "As you command."

Yuwen Jun looked at Chen Xuan and Zhong Yi and said firmly, "You two should spread this matter widely in Frost Moon City and Taicang City. It would be best if everyone in the entire Divine Realm knew that we had eaten the flesh and blood of the Heavenly Nether Python."

Zhong Yi and Chen Xuan quickly bowed and replied, "Yes, sir!"

At this moment, Li Hongshan finally realized what was going on and asked the triumphant Yuwen Jun, "So, this Heavenly Nether Python actually came from the Divine Realm to the Demon Realm?"

Yuwen Jun laughed heartily and said, "The Grand Preceptor is indeed wise."

Being praised for one's intelligence by a younger person sounds like an insult.

Li Hongshan's expression gradually turned serious, and he said, "So, war is about to break out?"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall felt a pang of anxiety. The Divine Realm's Morning Glory Trial was in full swing, and the results were not expected until after autumn.

Based on the timeline, there might be a battle after autumn, but it's hard to say where it will begin.

It could be a fierce attack from the God Emperor, or it could be a fierce attack from the Demon Realm on the Spirit Race.

Yuwen Jun, however, said nonchalantly, "War could break out at any time. Right now, the most important thing is to focus on reorganizing our internal affairs. Of course, it is also possible that we will initiate the war."

Once the soldiers have consumed the flesh and blood of this Heavenly Nether Serpent, their fighting power will inevitably surge, and they will naturally run rampant on the battlefield.

"Should we close the net now?" Li Hongshan asked cautiously.

With the commencement of the Chaohua Trial, the Starry Sky Spy Network has gradually penetrated deep into the heart of the Divine Realm.

However, the time was too short, and it's estimated that the spies haven't yet gathered any useful intelligence.

Yuwen Jun shook his head and said, "No rush, we can discuss this matter after autumn."

"In short, we will not move unless the enemy moves."

The matter of the Purple Gold Alliance has not yet come to an end, so Yuwen Jun naturally will not take the initiative to provoke a war.

Moreover, Yuwen Jun was not sure whether he could destroy the Purple Gold Alliance in a short period of time.

However, after the Heavenly Python was killed, the strength of the Purple Gold Alliance was naturally greatly reduced.

Yuwen Jun's expression hardened, and he said, "Let's cook this giant celestial python first. After the banquet, the Grand Preceptor and I will have a long talk to discuss the details for the future."

"It's too early to say anything now, but we need to be more cautious than usual."

"There is a possibility that an extremely hasty, probing battle may take place." (End of Chapter)
