Following a Hundred Years of Cultivation, I'm dying Before I Got Cheats

As everyone on the scene was secretly envying and jealous of Hou Dongbai, Zheng Pelong, who was among the crowd, nodded in agreement.

“I think what Master Hou said makes sense. I urge the two True Lords to seriously consider the matter of establishing a state,” he said.

At this, everyone present, no matter who they were, could no longer remain calm.

They each spoke up, all expressing agreement with Hou Dongbai’s suggestion, advising Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to pick a date for the state-establishing ceremony.

Things had already come to this point.

If they were any slower in their response, they wouldn’t get a piece of the cake.

How could that be allowed?

They must show the two Perfected Lords their attitude and let them see that their stance was definitely in support of establishing a state.

Jiang Renyi, Jiang Rendao, Jiang Anran, Shen Yuanlong, and others also did not expect that this matter would eventually turn out this way.

They couldn’t help but look at each other.

Then, they also spoke to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan in unison.

“Ancestor, please start establishing a state!

For the countless people of the Cangnan region.”

Establishing a state, while bringing immense fortune and power, also comes with responsibility.

Since you can obtain huge benefits from this, you naturally have to pay something in return.

And that thing is protection.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan understood this principle.

Looking at the crowd, they had already made up their minds.

Jiang Chengxuan slowly stood up, gazing at those present, and nodded:

“We already understand your messages.

If establishing a state benefits the development of our Cangnan region and better protects our people, then my wife and I agree to your proposal.

In a month, I will officially hold the establishment of a state in our Jiang family’s Mount Mystic Tai.

At that time, please be there.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present was invigorated.

Immediately, everyone bowed and answered loudly,

“We shall obey!”

Half a month later.

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan appeared on Mount Ether.

Beside them were Shen Yuanlong, Jiang Rendao, Jiang Renyi, and the others.

At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan said, “How is it? Are there still demon kings and Level 3 demon beasts within 50,000 kilometers of Mount Ether?”

Since the decision to establish a state, the Jiang family had ordered all demon beasts around Mount Ether to evacuate within half a month.

After all, this land used to be the territory of the human race.

Now that the Cangnan region was about to establish a state, it was about time to take back the territory that they had lost.

Hearing Jiang Chengxuan’s words, everyone nodded.

“Seven days ago, all the demon kings and Level 3 demon beasts within 50,000 kilometers of Mount Ether had already scurried away.

However…”

Jiang Renyi, the family head, hesitated but eventually spoke to Jiang Chengxuan.

“According to information from various factions, the Nine-tailed Civet Demon Emperor on Mount Jiuyao has been quite active lately.

If I’m not wrong, the Demon Emperor might be planning to disrupt our state-establishing ceremony.”

“Nine-tailed Civet?”

Jiang Chengxuan narrowed his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, this Nine-tailed Civet and the Black Wind Demon Emperor he had killed seemed to be the subordinates of the Golden Wolf Demon Emperor.

Did it want to avenge its companion?

Or did it want to use this opportunity to intimidate the couple?

If it were the Golden Wolf Demon Emperor, perhaps the couple would be threatened. But this one…

Not to be arrogant, but even before breaking through to Nascent Soul, Jiang Chengxuan was confident he could take Nine-tailed Civet’s life, who was known to be the best at survival.

Now, there was no need to mention it.

If it dared to come, it might end up as a sacrificial offering for their state-establishment ceremony.

For the remaining half month, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan stayed at Mount Mystic Tai’s Xuanming Peak.

Spending their days in meditation and tea-drinking, they were quite at ease.

In contrast, the cultivators from the Jiang and Shen families were extremely busy with preparations and invitations.

The day of the ceremony soon arrived.

As dawn broke, streaks of light flew towards Mount Mystic Tai from all directions.

In no time, the mountain was crowded with cultivators from all over the region..
