757 Human Race’s Regional Treasure, Sun of Dawn! (2)

The seventh prince, bestowed with divine power, possessed extraordinary talents and a brave heart. Regardless of his own safety, he fearlessly fought against the enemy, expanding the territories and subduing half of the region.

The four monarchs were shocked and furious. At the critical moment, the ancestral emperor of the Holy Wave Race broke through and carried a large world on his shoulder. Finally, he stepped into the Soul Accumulation Realm, causing a transformation in the heavens and earth of the Holy Wave Large Region.

He also severed his connection with the Black Heaven Race’s bloodline, allowing the Holy Wave Race to leave the Black Heaven and regain their freedom.

As soon as the Soul Accumulation appeared, clouds surged in all directions. The destructive momentum of the seventh son of the Human Emperor came to a halt, and a standoff ensued. At this critical moment, the Seventh Prince displayed his benevolence and virtue, influencing the Holy Wave Race and offering them a proclamation of peace.

The Holy Wave Race was tired of war, and the Seventh Prince was extremely sincere. In the end, the Holy Wave Race’s ancestor deeply understood his intentions and agreed to return to the human race.

This event was of great significance, stirring the entire human race and garnering the expectations of the Human Emperor.

However, the matter of returning couldn’t be completed in a short period of time. It required detailed negotiations between both parties to work out the specifics.

And as the one leading all of this, the Seventh Prince would stay in the Holy Wave Large Region to oversee the process and ensure its completion.

Hence, this war that lasted for half a year came to an end.

In this war, the Black Heaven Race suffered extremely heavy losses. The human race won a huge victory and intimidated all races.

This war was especially significant for the Seventh Prince. He saved Fenghai, fulfilled the imperial decree, expanded the territory, and led the return of the Holy Wave Race; this series of achievements elevated his reputation to new heights. He was hailed as a hero and considered a potential candidate for the future crown successor.

Regardless of whether it was the humans in Fenghai County or the other counties, after seeing all these results and reports, their morale soared and they were extremely excited.

In the shrines dedicated to the Human Emperor Mystic War, a longevity tablet for the Seventh Prince was added.

After all, this was the first time the human race had expanded its territory since the Mystic War Calendar!

In fact, if one were to trace back, this was also the first time the human race had recovered their territory after the Human Emperor Eastern Triumph lost!

One could imagine how meaningful it was.

The Holy Wave Race had defected during the Dao World Era. This event was a pain not only for the Human Emperor Dao World at that time but also for the entire human race. Now, in the Mystic War Calendar, they were influenced by the Seventh Prince and returned to the human race. This was truly an extraordinary achievement!

At this point, this chess game finally came to an end.

What outsiders saw was just the surface. The intricacies and judgments of the inner workings were subjective and multifaceted, and couldn’t be fully comprehended and summarized in a few words.

Moreover, this was a war.

War was not simply a matter of fighting and killing, a back-and-forth between adversaries. Such portrayals were often oversimplified or fictionalized.

The reality of war was often much more complex than the bloody scenes witnessed on the battlefield.

Even the human race in Fenghai County, other than the participants, didn’t understand the complexities of this war, and there was no need for them to understand, because only ignorance could provide them with a sense of happiness and peace.

Xu Qing sat in the Sword Pavilion, holding the command sword in his hand, silently reading the war reports and information that came in. He remained in deep silence, contemplating the significance of each report.

Outside, waves of cheers echoed every day.

Twenty days had passed since he discovered the truth.

In these twenty days, there were battle reports and announcements every day, just like the cheers outside.

The entire capital city was in high spirits. All the mortals had smiles on their faces. Even the Sword Holders in Fenghai County who had personally seen the Palace Master die in battle had looks of joy and relief on their faces.

Kong Xianglong hadn’t appeared for a few days. He was drinking alone and kept drinking.

Xu Qing was also drinking. He picked up the wine flask beside him and took another sip.

Several days later.

As the dust settled completely, the Seventh Prince returned to Fenghai County before the negotiations started with the Holy Wave Race.

His return ignited the hearts of the people in the county capital. They held an even more solemn ceremony than before, as though they were receiving the Human Emperor.

This ceremony lasted for an entire day. Late at night, in a pavilion in the County Governor’s residence, the Seventh Prince stood there alone and looked at the distant world.

After a long time, he calmly spoke.

“Thank you.”

As the words echoed, a figure appeared silently by the side of the Seventh Prince. With a gentle countenance and no signs of hostility, it was none other than the Deputy Governor.

“I help you, you help me. It’s a fair exchange, no need for thanks.”

The Deputy Governor smiled and looked at the sky with the Seventh Prince. His expression was filled with emotions.

The Seventh Prince remained silent. After a long time, he calmly spoke.

“What I want is credit. What the Holy Wave Race wants is the method to dispel the Black Heaven Race’s bloodline and the possibility of attaining the Soul Accumulation. We have obtained what we wanted.”

“Then, is what you want really just the item left behind by the Human Emperor Mirror Cloud in the Imperial Palace?”

The Deputy Governor smiled gently.

“Of course, I’m not lying. Also, you forgot to mention something. I also want to become the County Governor of Fenghai County.”

The Deputy Governor continued softly.

“And the Emperor actually had a regional treasure all along. Impressive tactics, clever scheming. No wonder you wanted to cooperate with me, because if we look at it normally, you wouldn’t have gained much credit in this war. It was all the achievement of the Emperor. Your original task was simply to rescue Fenghai and, most importantly, to provide an opportunity to activate the regional treasure by feeding the Crimson Goddess.”

“Is the gathering of fortune in Fenghai County that important to you?” The Seventh Prince acted as though he didn’t hear him and calmly spoke.

“The fortune that has been purified by the Radiant Life Calamity Pill is significant indeed. And the former county governor was the one I carefully selected as the most suitable substitute.”

“After the poison was absorbed by him, the fortune of Fenghai County became harmless. This fruit is almost ripe, and it is my gift to my lord.” The Deputy Governor said warmly. He didn’t hide anything and wasn’t worried that the other party would go back on his word.

The Seventh Prince’s pupils constricted as he spoke in a low voice.

“Who exactly are you?”

“I’m just a nameless person.”
