Douluo Continent: I Have a Nameless Law

Hu Yanzhen wore a forced smile, though he disliked the Haotian Sect's emergence, as it would inevitably take away a significant portion of their Xiangjia Sect's profits.

But there was nothing he could do; he couldn't beat Tang Xiao.

Moreover, the fact that the Haotian Sect has come out of seclusion this time clearly means that the Empire is behind them. Just because they don't like it doesn't mean the other side won't come out of seclusion.

Rather than doing that, it's better to welcome them and take the initiative to show goodwill, so as not to become the target of the Haotian Sect's re-emergence to establish its authority.

"Yes, yes, we were all heartbroken when Haotian Sect went into seclusion back then. Now that they have returned to the world, whatever Haotian Sect needs, our Holy Dragon Sect will naturally do its utmost to help!"

"My Wind Sword Sect is also willing to cooperate with the Clear Sky Sect."

"On behalf of the Black Tiger Sect, I welcome the Haotian Sect to come out of seclusion."

Hu Yanzhen did not want his sect to become a stepping stone for the Haotian Sect to establish its authority, and the other sects naturally did not want that either. Therefore, they all expressed their willingness to cooperate fully with the Haotian Sect.

At the same time, everyone's gazes were subtly drawn to Ning Fengzhi.

If the Haotian Sect were to re-emerge, which force would be most affected?

That must be the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which is currently at its zenith.

"I wonder how Ning Fengzhi will handle this?"

Hu Yanzhen and the others almost simultaneously thought to themselves.

“Brother Xiao, the Haotian Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can be said to be old friends. Now that we have rejoined the sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is willing to cooperate with the Haotian Sect in all aspects to create a win-win situation.”

Ning Fengzhi placed his hands on his cane, his voice as calm and even as ever.

"Then thank you very much, Sect Leader Ning, and thank you all the sect leaders."

Tang Xiao bowed slightly to the four directions.

Gu Han sat upright on the throne above. Seeing that the greetings had been given enough, he raised his hand, and his voice rang in everyone's ears.

"As the former leader of the three upper sects, the Haotian Sect enjoys a lofty status and prestige in the Soul Master world."

"Today I'll make a decision to expand the original seven major sects by one spot, allowing the Haotian Sect to retain its original status."

"Of course, if any of you have any opinions, you can talk to Sect Master Tang Xiao. I will not interfere."

Everyone looked at Tang Xiao, and Tang Xiao also glanced at everyone.

Everyone who met Tang Xiao's gaze felt a pang of fear, and even those who dared not admit the status of the Haotian Sect were willing to acknowledge it.

There's no way around it; the Haotian Sect, as the former leader of the three upper sects, didn't earn its reputation by boasting, but by fighting its way up step by step.

Tang Chen is not to be trifled with, Tang Tian is not to be trifled with, and Tang Xiao is no pushover either.

Nobody wanted to test whether the Haotian Hammer was still as heavy as it used to be.

Chapter 524 The New Emperor Arrives and the Army Enters the Heavenly Gate

"Now that I've finished talking about the Haotian Sect, let me tell you something even more important."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Ning Fengzhi, Tang Xiao, and the others all turned their gazes to Gu Han, their expressions serious.

Gu Han said, "Lingyun, come out."

As the voice faded, a stunningly beautiful woman emerged from the side of the main hall.

The woman wore a black imperial robe, embroidered with a black bird pattern, exuding dignity and majesty.

Dongfang Lingyun's phoenix eyes held a hint of gold, making it impossible for anyone to meet her gaze.

They appeared in front of Gu Han and Bibi Dong in a few flashes, and bowed slightly.

"Master, Mistress."

Apart from Ning Fengzhi and Tang Xiao, who knew some of the inside story beforehand, their expressions remained relatively calm.

The other sect leaders were in turmoil, their hearts turning serious.

This is the Black Bird Emperor's Robe.

These are clothes that only the emperor of the Spirit Empire can wear.

This woman not only wore it, but she also appeared in this kind of setting.

That can only mean one thing.

Your Majesty wishes to abdicate.

The Martial Soul Empire is about to undergo a major upheaval.

No one spoke at this moment, holding their breath and quietly watching Dongfang Lingyun and Gu Han above the main hall.

Gu Han pulled Dongfang Lingyun to the front of the stage and said, "Everyone, it is said that outstanding people emerge in every generation, and new people replace the old. Lingyun is my student. Before the establishment of the empire, she followed me in battles across the country and made great military achievements. After the founding of the country, she worked diligently to fill the gaps in the development of the empire and was loved by the people."

"Previously, in the voting in the Hall of Offerings and the Hall of Elders, Dongfang Lingyun was also highly respected by the offerings and elders and was elected unanimously."

"From now on, Dongfang Lingyun will be the new ruler of the empire. I hope that everyone will cooperate with the new ruler's policies. Only with unity of purpose can the Martial Soul Empire have a future and become stronger."

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, Yu Qingtian, Tang Xiao, and Tang Yuehua were the first to step forward and bow to Dongfang Lingyun above.

The others also realized what was happening and knelt down, shouting in unison.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Dongfang Lingyun glanced at Gu Han, and Gu Han nodded slightly.

Dongfang Lingyun slightly raised her hand, using her soul power to try to make her voice sound more authoritative.

"Rise, all of you. We will need the cooperation of the sect leaders in the future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Everyone stood up.

Gu Han said, "The coronation ceremony will be held on November 3rd this winter. You may all come to attend. Before that, the new emperor will be in charge of all important matters of the empire."

"We will obey His Majesty's will."

"Well then, let's start with the third thing."

Gu Han nodded slightly, and then began to talk about the third thing.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. They thought the matter of the new emperor was the grand finale, but they didn't expect there to be something even more important.

"The world is undergoing tremendous changes, and the cultivation of Soul Masters will be transformed. The Empire has begun to print a new manual for the Soul Master cultivation system."

"Your sects and families have great influence in various places. I hope that you can actively cooperate with the Empire to spread the new cultivation system for Soul Masters as soon as possible."

"Another point is that after the world changes, the Immortal Realm will emerge, and the Heavenly Court will be established to govern all living beings in the Soul Beast Realm, the Human Realm, the God Realm, and so on."

Gu Han brought the Heavenly Court matter to the forefront, aiming to let everyone know about the future power shifts, promotion channels, and newly established rules.

"Your Majesty, we can understand the human realm and the divine realm, but why establish a Soul Beast Realm?"

Not just Hu Yanzhen, everyone wanted to know why.

After all, the conflict between soul beasts and humans has been going on for more than just a day or two.

By establishing a separate realm for it, allowing it to recuperate, grow, and thrive, aren't we afraid that one day it might cause an irreparable disaster for humanity?

"All things in nature are created equal, and soul beasts are also among the masses, and are also citizens of the Heavenly Court."

"Now, the Lord of Soul Beasts has submitted to the Heavenly Court."

"In the future, the Heavenly Court will also monitor all realms and maintain peace in all realms."

"As long as I am here, as long as the Heavenly Court exists, it will not allow any race to launch an invasion."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yanzhen and the others were speechless.

Everyone knows and understands His Majesty's strength.

Throughout the entire world, they had never seen anyone who could withstand His Majesty's sword strike, and there were very few people left who were even worthy of His Majesty drawing his sword.

In front of His Majesty, mere spirit beasts are nothing but clay chickens and earthen dogs.

The conference lasted a full week, and Gu Han made it clear what he needed to say, what he wanted to say, and what he would do next.

The conference ended, and everyone returned to their respective sects with their assigned tasks.

Time flew by, and after half a month of careful selection, 100,000 qualified soldiers were finally gathered.

The soldiers have now gathered in the camp outside the city, and their families have all been arranged to go to Wuhun City.

The camp was located on a huge open space, separated from Wuhun City by a large mountain.

Gu Han and Bibi Dong arrived at this place and inspected the troops.

These soldiers were the empire's elite, standing in neat rows with upright postures.

"Soldiers, I'm sure you're wondering why I've gathered you all here from all over. Today I'll tell you the purpose of our visit!"

"Above the sky, I established a continent called the Immortal Realm, where I place all the hopes of the human race."

"That is the core of humanity, the lifeblood of humanity."

"I have gathered you here to give you a dual mission: to protect the Immortal Realm!"

"To protect the very foundation of humanity!"

"After entering the Immortal Realm, you will gain infinite lifespan and immense power, but the price is that you must endure the loneliness of the Immortal Realm."

"Your relatives, I will also send them to the Immortal Realm and grant them endless lifespans."

"I am willing to serve Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!!"

One general spoke first, followed by a chorus of shouts from 100,000 soldiers.

The sound was like rolling thunder, the roar of dragons and the howl of tigers, deafening and resounding throughout the sky.

Gu Han and Bibi Dong exchanged a glance and slightly raised their hands.

A colossal heavenly gate appeared, radiating boundless light and auspicious rays.

As the Heavenly Gate appeared, the soldiers stopped shouting and waited for Gu Han's next instructions.
