“What are you waiting for? You still think I’m lying at this point?”

Seeming to have seen through the Essence Soul’s thoughts, Xiang Qingtian smiled weakly and said, “I’m about to die and disappear completely. Why would I lie to you? What good would that do me?”

“…Let’s begin.”

Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul did not mention anything else and also summoned the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal from the Void World.

Swoosh!

A ray of white light descended from the sky.

The Kingdom Defending Jade Seal that Su Jingxing had personally forged came before him.

Regardless of whether Xiang Qingtian had really given up or was just putting on an act, the Essence Soul was confident that it could take care of him.

Previously, Su Jingxing had agreed to it as a test. Now, his agreement was his acknowledgment.

Xiang Qingtian knew the difference, so he grinned but did not expose him.

Only his soul power controlled the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal to float in the air.

Buzz!

Buzz!

The Kingdom Defending Jade Seal in the Essence Soul’s hand also floated in the air and shook slightly.

The two Kingdom Defending Jade Seals were independent of each other. First, they were three meters apart, then two meters apart, and finally, half a meter apart.

An invisible force emanated from within each of them and guided them together.

Beams of light shot out like searchlights, blooming on the slope.

Space began to churn, and ripples spread out like water waves.

It first filled the mountain, then the valley, and then the wilderness. Step by step, circle by circle, it quickly spread in all directions.

Soon, the entire Fulong Prefecture was enveloped, followed by half of the Yu Nation.

During this process, invisible energy fluctuations also swept through the entire New Chu Nation with the capital as the center.

When the Yu Nation’s territory was completely covered, the New Chu Nation would also be completely covered.

The two Kingdom Defending Jade Seals suddenly trembled at the same time.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

A visible beam of light stirred and wrapped around them, guiding the two Kingdom Defending Jade Seals closer and closer.

In the end, the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal controlled by Xiang Qingtian was moved beneath the seal controlled by Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul and kept shaking.

From the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal below, strand after strand of the nation’s fate aura crawled out and was absorbed by the one above.

When all the nation’s fate aura was completely transferred, the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal below turned into a rock and dropped to the ground.

The Kingdom Defending Jade Seal controlled by Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul sensed the aura of the nation’s fate inside and surged.

With a thought, the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal soared into the sky and returned to the Void World.

Without needing his main body to control it, the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal that was enveloped in light automatically projected rings of light into the darkness.

Everywhere it passed, the invisible and intangible dark areas disappeared like smoke.

After the darkness faded, the New Chu Nation’s Void World territory was clearly presented before his eyes. It had perfectly merged with the Yu Nation’s Void World area.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Light bloomed and spread in all directions.

Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul on the ground and his main body in the Void World looked at the expanded guarding area. With a thought, they enlarged and shrank the real territory of the New Chu Nation.

The light barrier released by the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal covered every inch of the additional area.

Without needing a single soldier, without causing a single casualty, the Yu Nation had completed its annexation of the New Chu Nation!

Of course, this was the annexation of another country by one in the Void World.

In reality, the Yu Nation still needed time to annex the New Chu Nation and resolve all kinds of troubles.

However, that was the business of Guan Zhonghua, Luo Shan and Xiao Renwo.

To Su Jingxing, the larger the area he guarded in the Void World, the more fate he could mobilize.

The populations of the Yu Nation and the New Chu Nation added up to nearly five billion people.

If all five billion people worshiped and acknowledged Su Jingxing, he would be able to contend against a person in the Primordial Spirit realm with the Kingdom Defending Jade Seal alone.

With a population of nearly five billion people, even the Primordial Spirit realm could not easily break through the protection of the nation’s fate.

Mobilizing the people’s faith to fight was equally powerful.

Xiang Qingtian didn’t cause any trouble. This fellow actually really gave New Chu to Su Jingxing for the Yu Nation to annex!

…

“How… how is it? I… I didn’t lie to you, did I?” said Xiang Qingtian with a weak smile. His Essence Soul was already translucent.

Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul remained silent.

Even though it turned out to be true, Su Jingxing still had some doubts.

“The… the nation’s fates have been fused. You… you still don’t believe me?”

Xiang Qingtian spoke again. “Forget… Forget it. I’ll h-help you one more time to… to resolve your subsequent troubles.”

After finishing his words with great difficulty, Xiang Qingtian’s Essence Soul emitted a burst of light.

Swish!

A circle of light with a diameter of two meters appeared in the air more than ten meters above the ground.

“Watch… watch carefully,” said Xiang Qingtian weakly. Light surged on the circle of light and turned into a mirror-like screen.

Xiang Qingtian and Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul were both inside.

Then, the circle of light slowly moved down, revealing their upper bodies. The image on the screen also expanded.

When it stopped more than two meters above Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul,

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Circular light screens shot out in all directions with the light rings as the center.

These circular light screens first covered every prefecture in the Yu Nation. Then, they crossed the border and appeared in every prefecture in the New Chu Nation.

Whoosh!

The air above Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul suddenly shook and ripples appeared.

These ripples affected the entire prefecture, and everyone could see it.

When the ripples disappeared, the faces of Xiang Qingtian and Su Jingxing’s Essence Souls appeared in the air.

The huge faces blotted out the sky!

The scene of Xiang Qingtian provoking Su Jingxing for the first time and issuing a challenge appeared again.

The difference was that last time, only Xiang Qingtian’s face was present. This time, there was Su Jingxing in the Thunder Dragon Bone Armor.

The two of them appeared together in the sky above every prefecture in the Yu Nation and New Chu Nation. Everyone in the two countries saw them.

“People of New Chu, I am Xiang Qingtian, New Chu’s Martial Sage.”

Holding up with his last breath, Xiang Qingtian maintained the clarity on his face and slowly spoke to the circle of light in front of him.

“I’m sorry to inform everyone that I’m going to die.

“That’s right, even a Martial Sage will die. The people who killed me are two people of a foreign race. They are sisters. I’ve already asked this Martial Sage of the Yu Nation beside me to find them and expose them!

“In order to thank the Yu Nation’s Martial Sage for his help and to save everyone from a calamity, on behalf of the New Chu imperial family, I’ve discussed with the Yu Nation’s Martial Sage and invited him to continue to guard New Chu on my behalf. From today onwards, the Yu Nation and New Chu are one family.

“Because of my demise, New Chu will merge into the Yu Nation. This process has been completed. I hope that the people of New Chu can cooperate with the arrangements of the Yu Nation and achieve the unification of the two countries.

“Finally, I thank the Yu Nation’s Martial Sage for his help again. Although he injured me once before, I don’t blame him.

“I’m very ashamed. Compared to me, the Martial Sage of the Yu Nation is more suitable to be a guardian. I hope the people of New Chu will like him, support him, and worship him.

“I can guarantee that the Martial Sage of the Yu Nation is definitely worthy of your love!”

With that, Xiang Qingtian’s Essence Soul turned into a wisp of mist and dissipated.

The light rings and screens that were projected in all directions also disappeared at the same time, bringing back the clear sky.
