Under One Person: From Nascent Soul to Great Sacred Body

Upon hearing that Jingming had adopted his suggestion, Liu Mang smiled and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

Jingming simply smiled and nodded, then closed his eyes and resumed his cultivation.

With the destiny of a "pseudo-dragon," coupled with the previous "destiny of being afflicted by killing" and "unpolished jade and pure gold," Jingming seems to be truly about to undergo a series of transformations.

Three days later, the group arrived at Jingming's room.

"His Majesty!"

Led by Li, a group of more than a dozen people bowed to Jingming.

Yes, they cupped their hands in greeting, but did not kneel.

"Have you come here to attack me?"

Jingming stared blankly at the group of people in front of him and said in a low voice.

It's as if these people are some kind of terrifying individuals.

"Your Majesty, do not be afraid!"

Seeing Jingming's state, Liu Mang spoke up to comfort him.

"Gentlemen, now that you have seen His Majesty, please return."

"Otherwise, if you disturb the Holy Cross, you will not be able to bear the consequences."

Liu Mang then addressed Li and the others.

"What's with all this talk about holy crosses? He's just a kid!"

Upon hearing Liu Mang's words, one of them shouted in dissatisfaction.

"presumptuous!"

Liu Mang's eyes widened, and he immediately reprimanded him.

"presumptuous!"

"Since you've made me this official, you have to listen to me!"

"A scholar can be killed but not humiliated!"

Li glared at her and shouted.

"Even if it's true, you must still address him as His Majesty!"

"you!"

The man looked at Li and almost drew his gun in anger.

"Alright, Governor Li is right."

"This is out of respect for the emperor!"

The person next to him reached out and pressed down on the man's arm, saying in a low voice.

"Humph!"

Looking at the seven defiant and eight equally arrogant people in front of him, Li snorted coldly.

He was doing a good job as an official and thought he had treated these people well, yet he was actually coerced into rebellion by his own subordinates!

And they rebelled right under the emperor's nose!

"Let's go, the next thing we need to discuss concerns our very survival!"

Li bowed to Jingming and then left Jingming's room.

"What life-or-death matter?"

Outside, Wu followed behind Li and asked softly.

"Are you genuinely unaware, or are you pretending not to know?"

"The young emperor of the Qing Dynasty is here now, no need to say more."

"As long as the Qing court still needs the emperor, they will attack this place like madmen."

"How long do you think our guns and cannons can hold out?"

Li glanced at Wu and said with dissatisfaction.

"The next thing to discuss is whether this young emperor should stay or leave!"

Li Yangtian glanced at the sun in the sky.

From that night on, he was forced into a position where he had to use all his knowledge to fight against the Qing court.

If he didn't have some skills, he would have been finished by now.

"I suggest keeping the young emperor alive; it will make the Qing court hesitant to act against him."

Upon hearing Li's words, Wu narrowed his eyes and casually replied.

"Then they faced the Qing court's furious retaliation."

Li added dismissively.

"So, what does Commander Li think we should do?"

Upon hearing Li's words, Wu couldn't help but speak up.

"If you're going to go down in this, then go all out!!"

"Isn't the goal to establish a constitution?"

“Perfect timing, the young emperor is right here with us.”

"Skip the Qing court altogether and establish a constitutional law!!"

"Go and gather photographers from the city; if you don't have any, borrow some from the Russian district!"

"Go and prepare the yellow robe, or if that doesn't work, the one from under the costume will do."

"Then take photos, pass legislation, and release it nationwide!!"

"Force the Qing court to swallow its pride and admit to this! Make them submit!"

Li stared wide-eyed and said loudly.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up, or Sun Biao will attack!"

"Let's go immediately!"

Wu stared blankly at Li for a moment, then shouted loudly.

"It's boring, it's really boring."

Watching those people leave, Li shook her head slightly, then walked towards the Governor's Mansion's office hall.

"Everyone, follow me!"

Hearing Li's remark, Wu's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he called out to the crowd behind him.

"There have been changes again."

On the other side, Jingming felt the "thing" surrounding him begin to move rhythmically.

Like an invisible net, it increasingly and densely enveloped Jingming in the middle.

"I don't know if doing this is the right thing to do."

Jingming narrowed his eyes.

By offering himself up to the needs of all living beings, he is already showing signs of demonic influence.

"Your Majesty, please come to the council hall."

The sun had moved to the west, making it feel less hot.

The various traces of artillery fire inside the Governor's Mansion have been mostly covered up.

However, the strong smell of gunpowder in my nasal cavity could not be dispelled.

"Your Majesty, shall I take you to have your picture taken?"

Inside the council hall, Li smiled and approached Jingming, bowing slightly as he spoke softly.

"Photograph?"

"Is it one of those glowing things?"

"Okay."

Hearing Li's words, Jingming grinned and then spoke.

"Haha, I know His Majesty likes taking pictures."

"Let's go change into something nice first."

"The kind with a dragon."

Li smiled and nodded, then waved to the side.

Soon, someone came over with a tray, on which was placed a concoction embroidered with a bright yellow dragon.

"Take His Majesty to change his clothes."
