Thunderbolt: I Became the Human Emperor in the Bitter Realm

Su Huanzhen and the others were very relaxed; they hadn't been this relaxed in a long time.

"I never imagined that the Emperor could reign for so long, and that the Seven Stars would still shine so brightly."

"Indeed, three cycles of sixty years have passed, and in another twenty years, it will be two hundred years."

"Indeed, it has been a long period of time, allowing the Central Plains of the Bitter Realm to recover a great deal."

"People, live in peace and prosperity. You and I also had a peaceful holiday without any danger. All the Mandate of Heaven was suppressed by the Emperor's will. Indeed, the Emperor is the most powerful."

"That's true. The Human Emperor's Mandate is the strongest Mandate in the Bitter Realm. Even the gods must remain silent."

"Alright, what are you planning to do next?"

"I don't do anything, but I always feel a sense of pressure coming on, I don't know why?"

"Is that so? It seems there might be some changes."

"In truth, none of us want any change. With the Emperor in power, the people live in peace and prosperity. But once the Emperor abdicates and retires to a remote region, the Central Plains of this Bitter Realm will likely be..."

Su Huanzhen's words were actually the last thing everyone wanted to see, and the last thing they wanted to hear.

Why do I have this feeling?

Whether it's due to confusion, ignorance, or some other reason, there's no need to know.

The celestial phenomena appeared unchanged, leaving everyone puzzled.

As renowned sages of the Bitter Realm, they were actually the last people who wanted to see this scene. They would rather have accomplished nothing than be caught in war and chaos. This was a sentiment that came from the bottom of their hearts.

Unlike other ambitious individuals, they all understood this very well.

"Just wait and see. Fate is not something we can control. Three cycles of sixty years have passed. This period of peace has truly been hard-won, hasn't it?"

"That's true. I wonder how people will evaluate this level of strength in the future."

"Haha, it's fine for our own people, but for outsiders, it's a history of exploitation, isn't it?"

No one refuted this; it was indeed the case.

Otherwise, where would the prosperous Central Plains have come from? It was obtained by using resources from foreign tribes.

This is a very important historical contribution.

Chen Yu's status is, as one might imagine, a result of his ability to endure loneliness and carry out his destiny.

He rarely left the capital, which saved time for many things and allowed people to do more.

This is something that cannot be ignored, and ultimately it is difficult to describe.

Rules are a fact, and they cannot be taken lightly. Ultimately, they are traces of fate, and naturally, they cannot be described.

"Alright, no matter what, all we can do right now is focus on our own tasks. We can't handle anything else."

This is important, and there is no room for doubt.

"That's true. It's better to be careful, lest something unexpected happens, which would be even more troublesome."

"That's right, let's do it this way now. There's no need to rush, let's take it one step at a time."

"How are your injuries? Shouldn't this period of time be enough for you to recover?"

"That's right, there's basically nothing to be afraid of, the danger is not great."

"Okay, even if there are any unexpected events, it can be done, and it is necessary for someone to do it."

"That's right, that's absolutely true. If something goes wrong, the consequences will be indescribable."

"Haha, you're right. For now, there's no need to overthink it. As long as we can do it, it's all worth it."

This rare period of peace has allowed many people who previously struggled to recover to further improve their physical abilities, making it easier to address numerous challenges, which is a good thing.

They are capable of doing it, and they understand it perfectly well, so there's no need to worry about it too much.

All of this requires strong support, and now that they have recovered, they are naturally much more at ease.

That's good, nothing to worry about, impossible.

It's understandable to understand, but to handle it better, one needs to develop their own way of thinking, which can also have some value.

This is inevitable; there's no need to differentiate.

Chapter Eighty: Knowing One's Fate Leads to Peaceful Retirement

As Chen Yu's seclusion time gradually increased, his soul had already undergone a transformation, and his power was still increasing. His True Dragon Body was still improving, which was undeniable.

Suddenly, he had a thought, and when he looked up, he knew the reason.

"So that's how it is. It's not that you lack skill, but that fate is suppressing you."

During this period, he was unable to break through to the near-god realm; fate cannot be defied.

At the same time, he was relieved because his destiny was about to arrive.

"It's the last bit of time."

While it's fortunate, it's also frustrating, as the realm of suffering may be heading back to its previous state.

As he realized this, the seven ancient stars in the night sky suddenly began to dim.

Countless ambitious people were stunned when they saw this, but then became excited.

"The Emperor's Mandate is about to end, that's wonderful, wonderful!"

"These years of suppression have been so painful, so incredibly painful."

"Finally, the bitterness is over and the sweetness is in the future."

"However, there is still a little time left. When the seven ancient stars completely dim and no longer shine, that will be the time for the Human Emperor to abdicate, and that will be the time for us to take the stage."

"Looking forward to it, I'm really looking forward to it."

Many within the Seven Star Dynasty have already witnessed that the Human Emperor's Mandate is ultimately coming to an end.

The same applies to the three religions; they began preparations, though they wouldn't make any moves openly. Before the Mandate of Heaven was completely over, no one dared to act rashly, lest they anger the Human Emperor, for which they were unwilling to bear the consequences.

Chen Yu gathered his men.

"Gentlemen, my destiny is about to be fulfilled, it is time to prepare."

Yu Jiefei and the others had known about this day for a long time. Although they were very unwilling, the emperor was willing, and they did not want to try to stop him.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Chen Yu looked at you and shook his head, saying, "I know you are unwilling, but this is the only way. You all know about the power of destiny. I don't care about it. I once said that I don't need much, just a peaceful place away from the world. The Northern Corner is the place I chose back then."

Yu Jiefei and the others hurriedly responded, "Your Majesty is absolutely right. If it weren't for Your Majesty's wisdom, the Northern Corner would probably be in a terrible state by now, or even destroyed. We understand now."

"Hmm, very good. It's not in vain that I feel at ease. Go, make all the preparations. Return what needs to be returned. Don't have any regrets. In recent years, the resources of the Northern Corner have increased a lot, enough to make it strong."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Everyone was going to hear what Chen Yu said, so naturally no one complained.

Even Mu Shaoai, who joined later and had his own agenda, didn't want to get involved in the various aspects of the Bitter Realm anymore. It was too tiring and too troublesome; it was better to have a peaceful place.

Thus, the forces that originally belonged to the Northern Corner gradually began to establish the Seven Star Dynasty.

These things were made known to the three religions and others, but they faced no obstacles because they understood the meaning of the Human Emperor.

It means abdication.

The best outcome would be to abdicate without bloodshed, and the three religions would breathe a sigh of relief, wondering why something like this would happen at such a critical juncture.

After all, they've been together for two hundred years, and there's some goodwill between them, especially in their efforts to balance the various forces, which they've done quite well.

Now that everything is voluntary, let's part ways amicably. If anyone does something at this crucial juncture that makes everyone lose face, then no one is to blame.

The final step was to further divide the power among the various parties, which was also the only thing Chen Yu was doing at this moment.

In the main hall of the Emperor, Chen Yu sat high on the throne, looking down at everyone.

"My beloved ministers, my time is coming to an end, and I shall naturally abdicate. However, I cannot disregard the lives and well-being of the people afterward. Therefore, I shall now delineate our respective spheres of influence. As for how long we can maintain this position, I cannot predict."

"Your Majesty, we understand your hard work and will do our best to protect it. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"Alright, let's leave it at that. Hopefully, the dynasty's fortunes can continue. As for when, that depends on each person's luck."

The three schools of thought had no objections.

Let's proceed according to the rules previously established by the three parties.

In fact, the largest part of the territory is only the interior of the Central Plains and the north.

As for the Central Plains, Chen Yu didn't interfere much; as for the North, he divided it evenly among the three religions.

Of course, how the three religions allocate resources within themselves is their own business.

When his forces retreated to the northern corner, that was when they would take over.

The leaders of the three religions naturally agreed, and there was no harm in making a little more time.
