The people had almost forgotten which day it was when a mountain appeared behind the palace of Wanda Country, a mountain towering into the clouds.
It was like a trace of the immortals.
Now and then, immortal cranes circled overhead.
Now and then, golden light bathed the land.
The citizens of Wanda Country had also developed a habit of worship.
On the Fairy Mountain.
Pei Jinye formed hand seals.
The wind, rain, thunder, lightning, and various other elements floated into existence under his control.
He was like a Heaven God.
Elements of all sorts converged.
And in an instant.
Everything fell to the ground like dust.
Pei Jinye opened his eyes.
A fleeting red glow could be discerned within his pupils.
“The next step is the Great Perfection of Body Cultivation.”
After becoming a Great Grandmaster, from Blood Energy Manifests, to Blood like Mercury, and now to Blood Energy like a Dragon…
It had been quite a few years in calculation,
Although not much time had passed in reality.
“It’s been a year.”
Wu Sanfa carefully accompanied him at his side.
It had been a year since Pei Jinye had executed King Guohai publicly.
During this year, he had visited Wanda Country much less frequently.
As he delved deeper into the cultivation of “Drawing Blood Art”, he now had the motivation and goals for his cultivation.
During this period.
People from the Liyue Sword Sect had also come a few times.
Every time the Master of the Liyue Sword saw Pei Jinye, tears would stream down his face, expressing the longing he felt from not having seen him for so long. He said he wanted to stay by his side to take care of the old man, but in the end, Pei Jinye sent him away.
To talk of taking care was a bit too much.
And to call him an old man…
Pei Jinye almost wanted to throw this guy flying.
It was only because of his filial piety that he was spared this time.
The day the Master of the Liyue Sword left, thirteen Great Grandmasters, including him, circled around Wanda Country’s imperial palace.
There was no other meaning to it: even if distant, they would be pursued and punished!
Frightened by this, the Monarch of Wanda Nation kneeled before Pei Jinye that very night, crying and saying how hard his life was.
From then on,
Those people from Wanda Country dared not even show their thoughts.
Let alone how powerful Master Pei actually was.
Heavenly Technique Sect and Liyue Sword Sect combined could easily obliterate their entire Wanda Country.
…
Across the sea, in the Ancient Holy Light Kingdom.
“These fools from Wanda Country, they don’t know how to appreciate what they have.”
The New Emperor Xu Qiansheng cursed the folks from Wanda Country while also feeling envious.
He had not cultivated a good relationship when Pei Jinye was there.
Now that Jinye had gone to Wanda Country.
It made him so envious.
“Your Majesty, we have verified it. That Immortal Master, when he cut down the Liyue Sword Sect with his sword, depleted at least thirty percent of their strength. But now, in nearly two years, they have gained at least ten new Great Grandmasters, and the number of Grandmasters is unknown.”
An old minister spoke worriedly, “The growth rate of the Liyue Sword Sect is too fast, so fast that we cannot ignore it. Do you think that these people’s growth might actually be related to him?”
Before he could finish,
Suddenly Xu Qiansheng waved his hand and interrupted him, “Tell those below, whatever crooked ideas they’ve come up with, hold them back!”
But then he changed his tone.
“Are they all pig-brains? Don’t they know to look for a Master?”
The old minister’s eyes immediately brightened.
…
The initiation ceremony at the Liyue Sword Sect was booming.
But the Elders were somewhat worried.
“There are too many members of the Imperial Family appearing in this batch.”
“It was the Sword Master who stepped forward to stop a portion of them. Some generals wanted to join earlier… they’re so old that I fear they might die on the way.”
“The Sword Master said, once you join our Sword Sect, we treat everyone equally, regardless of whether they’re from the Imperial Family or not. Everything is spoken for by our rules.”
“Our Liyue Sword Sect is not what it used to be.”
“All thanks to the Immortal Master.”
“Yes.”
…
“How big is this world?” The Monarch of Wanda Nation pondered upon hearing Pei Jinye’s words: “My ancestor had a Great Grandmaster who loved to travel. He wrote, ‘The world has four continents, with the Eastern Continent being the most prosperous…’ and we are under the Western Continent, which has many island nations, numbering over a hundred, with few large countries…”
Pei Jinye raised his eyebrows at this.
Those who don’t know would think he was talking about the Federation.
He pondered for a moment.
“So you mean there are quite a few island nations in the Western Continent now?”
“Probably…” The Monarch of Wanda Nation said uncertainly.
Noticing Pei Jinye’s gaze,
He quickly explained, “These words have been around for quite a few years, and we are not clear on how many island nations there are currently, as there have been constant wars outside, and changes of regime are too common. If you, Immortal Master, wish to know more, I will arrange for someone to investigate right away.”
Pei Jinye shook his head, “Never mind. It’s a hassle.”
That very night.
Night fell.
Pei Jinye flew away directly.
Rather than asking these people, it would be better to explore for himself.
With his mindset.
Since he already treated Different World as his backyard, he should be more bold.
Those who comply will prosper, those who oppose will perish!
Three days later.
Wanda Country set out on a campaign.
In a grand manner.
But privately, some harbored complaints and were not optimistic.
The military strength of Wanda Country wasn’t even as strong as the worn-out Ancient Holy Light Kingdom.
How could they possibly fight?
However, to everyone’s surprise,
On the first day of the battle, the enemy nation surrendered.
This sent shockwaves throughout Wanda Country.
“This…”
“It’s said that on that day there appeared nine golden dragons over the skies of Wanda Country.”
The expectation was that Wanda Country would return to the capital after annexing a nation, but to everyone’s surprise, they continued to advance.
In half a month, they had annexed seventeen nations.
When the news reached Wanda Country,
The nation was boiling with excitement!
Even the monarch had not anticipated this turn of events.
Upon hearing the news in the morning, Director Ji didn’t know what to say.
He ended up going to worship at the ancestral temple for a long time,
Tears streaming down his face.
The land area of Wanda Country had expanded by more than threefold.
Fortunately, they were separated from the Ancient Holy Light Kingdom by a sea.
Otherwise, the Ancient Holy Light Kingdom would have to start worrying now.
…
“How I envy them… I really do envy them…”
…
More and more islands were submitting, like child’s play.
The confidence of the citizens of Wanda Nation grew day by day.
“Unite the world!”
“Sweep through the four continents!”
…
Deep within the palace.
Hearing these words, the only thing the Monarch could do was give a wry smile.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that he had now become the ruler of a major country.
In his heart, it was as clear as a mirror.
Without the support of Pei Jinye, this large country couldn’t have managed at all.
Is it helplessness?
He didn’t dare to feel that way.
Let alone think about rebellion.
He felt that achieving what even his ancestors hadn’t, with the support of Pei Jinye, was already enough.
He wasn’t greedy.
Really not greedy.
He had even prepared himself to be replaced by Pei Jinye.
To be honest, if Pei Jinye wished it, becoming or not becoming the emperor was just a matter of thought.
The Monarch of Wanda Nation understood this principle, and thus, he did not compete or contend, resigned to fate, and quietly waited.
However, what Pei Jinye instructed him was–
“Arrange people, establish a logistics hub. I have already opened up the entire sea area for you…”
Pei Jinye even handed over the reward and punishment system.
Managing this vast land like a transnational corporation, Pei Jinye indeed had a lot of experience.
All the Monarch of Wanda Nation needed to do was follow suit.
The war endeavors weren’t neglected either.
Some countries were hard nuts to crack, refusing to submit, especially an island nation with a sun totem that was arrogant and unruly.
In the end, Wu Sanfa sent his disciples there.
The small nation finally capitulated and admitted defeat.
But when this news reached Pei Jinye, he only said one word:
“Slaughter!”
A small nation with a population of millions was slaughtered at his command.
The principle of “those who oppose me, perish” was exemplified to the fullest.
…
“Do you think I’m cruel?”
Pei Jinye looked at the Monarch of Wanda Nation.
The latter hurriedly shook his head and explained, “No, not at all. This island had a cunning nature, mixing women and children into our army, causing heavy losses to our soldiers and civilians. Even slicing them a thousand times wouldn’t be enough to quell the public rage. I was just thinking…”
“Thinking what?” Pei Jinye’s voice remained calm.
“I boldly speculate, do you seem so eager to gather resources because… because you are about to ascend?”
On hearing this, Pei Jinye looked over.
The Monarch of Wanda Nation looked back cautiously, then hurriedly lowered his head, appearing frightened and uneasy.
“I… I…”
Pei Jinye rarely smiled.
He didn’t explain the issue.
This made the Monarch of Wanda Nation imagine all sorts of things.
Could it be… the Immortal Master is truly about to ascend?
Then what am I to do next?
“Do you wish to practice cultivation?”
After Pei Jinye asked,
The Monarch of Wanda Nation first paused in surprise, then knelt down with a thud in front of Pei Jinye.
“Disciple Xiao Yuan hereby swears, neither I nor my clan will ever betray the Immortal Master, for all eternity!”
…
“This technique is called “Heaven and Earth Method” (Drawing Blood Art), and only your Xiao lineage may practice it.”
“Disciple will remember well.”
…
Pei Jinye couldn’t give him immortality, but he could make him live a few more years.
…
In the blink of an eye.
Three years hurried by.
The bustling streets of the Imperial Capital were crowded with people.
Nowadays, Wanda Nation had become the trade center of the entire Western Continent.
“Sister, look at this.”
Sima Yingjun called out loudly.
The young woman beside him showed an indulgent and helpless expression, “We’ll be at the Imperial Palace soon, you’ve been talking about wanting to meet the master day and night, and now you’re dazzled by these things.”
“It’s too amazing, it wasn’t this prosperous when I came last year… since the master arrived, Wanda Nation seems to have changed completely.”
Sima Yingjun couldn’t help but feel sentimental.
A bell chimed.
Everyone looked over.
A procession of exquisite carriages arrived slowly.
Wanda Nation’s Imperial Capital didn’t allow galloping horses, to prevent disturbing the Immortal Master on Fairy Mountain.
“They are tribute brought by those coming from outside.”
“Why are there so many tributes this month?”
“A thousand nations pay homage, but what is this compared to all?”
…
Taking in this information, Sima Yingjun gasped.
He gestured to Sima Manli beside him.
“How many things we must have missed while we were practicing.”
Sima Manli rolled her eyes at him.
…
“Master.”
…
Pei Jinye met with the siblings alone.
Half an hour later.
Sima Yingjun left alone.
The people of Wanda Nation all noticed these two siblings, especially seeing that Sima Manli took a full three hours to come out, lingering and dragging her feet, which led to many meaningful glances.
From that day on.
A number of beautiful girls appeared beneath Fairy Mountain.
…
[Energy is about to run out, please be prepared to evacuate within an hour.]
The Flame God’s Coffin finally made an announcement.

Following that.
Wanda Nation started to get into motion.
Pei Jinye had been waiting for this day for a long time.
…
“I, Hu Han San, have returned again!”
