Chapter 300: Conquering the state in one night:
Without thinking twice, she jumped out of her bed and summoned everyone for an emergency meeting.
It was then they learned about the military order to take over the 36th state before dawn.
"Is that even possible?" Meiling asked with wide eyes.
It was not only her that was stunned. General Shi and his trusted commanders found it impossible to believe.
They were still trying to wrap their heads around the previous devastating attack, and now another insane order had been released.
Are they for real?! The four thought, exchanging puzzling glances.
"True or not, you will find out." Biyu was too lazy to explain since they had more urgent matters to discuss.
"All Specialized Units are deployed immediately. Their orders would be sent to their Spirit Comms," she continued with a solemn expression.
"General Shi, you\'re to defend and build an outpost at the strategic location of the borders down to the now-destroyed Brown Steel Prefecture."
"Zimo, clear every monster beast in the surrounding forest of the 36th state that could be a threat."
What!
When they heard this, a gasp escaped from their mouths.
"Commander Biyu…are you serious?" the fat commander asked.
The whole 36th state. Is she insane?
The 36th state has 18 prefectures, and each prefecture was massive enough that it would take an ordinary human 6 months to 1 year to cover.
Apart from that, each prefecture had many deadly forests that humans dare not enter.
Some of the forests were endless that many didn\'t even know where they lead.
Now, they wanted to clear the forest of terrifying beasts.
Is she insane or what?
However, the look on her face told them she was dead serious. Moreover, Zimo didn\'t have any change in his expression.
Previously, Zimo might have been worried about such a mission. But the previous increase in the Spirituous Energy boosted his cultivation to Intermediate Foundation Building Realm stage 5.
Armed with the new advanced armor and Grade-2 blade, only a Grade-5 Beast could pose a threat to him.
Biyu only batted an eye at them before she continued.
"You\'re sent to the Silver Sand Prefecture to take over their military. While you…" She looked at the fat commander.
"You\'re to return to base." She concluded the meeting and asked, "Is there any question?"
For a couple of seconds, no one spoke. Finally, Meiling broke the silence.
"What about me?" She asked.
"You\'re with me," Biyu responded and got on her feet. "You\'re dismissed."
With that, she left to prepare for the journey.
"This is going to be a long night," she muttered with her face beaming with anticipation.
Meanwhile, over the Yellow Sparrow Prefecture capital, a massive artifact appeared in the sky. The door to the artifact slid open, and hundreds of soldiers jumped down.
When the guards saw this, they were stunned and prepared to launch an attack when a voice echoed in the guard captain\'s ear.
"Attack and you\'re doomed."
The guard captain froze and rolled his eyes in their sockets. He tried to find the direction of the voice but failed.
Quickly, more than one thousand soldiers landed and disappeared into the darkness covering the city.
Suddenly, a young man appeared before the guard captain.
"You made the right decision," he said calmly.
"As of today, the Yellow Sparrow Prefecture is under the Celestial Heavenly Sect," he declared casually.
When all the guards heard the Celestial Heavenly Sect, they were petrified.
All the previous thoughts about fighting to the death with them evaporated from their minds.
Inside the main hall of the Yellow Sparrow Prefecture Lord, a man in his early twenties looked at the trembling old man on the throne and said casually.
"Do you agree to surrender to the Celestial Heavenly Sect?" He asked.
"Yes, Your Honor," the Prefecture Lord said quickly.
"Good. Please cooperate, and it will be done quickly," he said, and a group of young people entered.
They had an age range between 15 to 18 years.
Taking over the prefecture was not just subduing them with force but gathering every data about the inhabitants of the prefecture.
As this was happening in the Yellow Sparrow Prefecture, it was simultaneously happening in every prefecture in the 36th state.
Inside the state capital, the Governor had a solemn expression on his face as he paced back and forth.
In front of him were the seductive woman and the ten wise men.
Currently, none of them could fathom what was happening. They\'d received a secret message from the spies of the sudden arrival of the Celestial Heavenly Sect soldiers.
Just as they were trying to find a solution, a massive artifact appeared over the state capital.
Even though it was nighttime, the previous tremor had caused many to be wide awake.
The sudden arrival of the massive Spirit Plane left them stupefied.
"They\'ve arrived…" The Governor said, coming out of the hall.
Behind him were the people inside the hall. They all had pensive expressions on their faces.
The inevitable had finally happened.
Tension and fear gripped the hearts of those awake watching as hundreds of soldiers jumped out of the flying artifact.
The inns and restaurants that still had their windows open quickly closed their doors.
The streets were deserted in a matter of seconds. After a minute, the only thing left on the wide street was the howling of the night wind.
Whoosh!
Biyu and Meiling jumped out of the Spirit Plane and landed right in front of the Governors.
"You must be Purple Peach," Biyu said, staring at the seductive woman.
When Purple Peach heard her name from Biyu, a slight flicker of shock appeared on her face but immediately, she regained her indifferent expression.
"Your ingenuity in your spy organization caught the eye of His Majesty The Creator; that was why you\'re still alive," Biyu said casually but her face was filled with pride.
"I\'m curious though," she added before she averted her gaze and looked at the Governor.
Meanwhile, the Governor felt his spine drenched in cold sweats. The fact their enemies knew of Purple Peach was testament to their strong intelligence network.
He was Core Refining stage 7 but in front of these Foundation Building realm ladies.
He felt weak, and his legs were about to succumb to the invincible pressure on his shoulder.
"Do you surrender?" Biyu asked.
The Governor didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry. His enemies had already defeated him, and they were still asking him if he surrendered.
Did he have a choice?
"Yes, Your Honor," he responded, taking a deep breath.
"Wise decision," Biyu nodded and waved her hand.
Immediately, hundreds of announcements in fact floated in the sky.
"People of the 36th state…." She paused for a moment.
Meanwhile, it was not only the state capital that had hundreds of announcement artifacts floating over their heads.
Every Prefecture capital and city had the artifact floating over them in the 36th state.
Therefore, she was not merely addressing the state capital but the whole state at once.
"You\'re now under the rule of His Majesty The Great, The First Son of Heaven. His will, the will of heaven."
"As of this moment onward, you\'re no longer the 36th state."
"You\'re the Gray Pagoda state."
