Xiao Chen's execution of the Tyrant King shocked the world.
It was a surprise for Dragon Country!
No one expected the Tyrant King to make a comeback, only to be defeated once more, at the hands of the former King Yama War God who was thought to be wasted.
Indeed, the title of world's number one War God is well-deserved.
Dragon Country is truly fortunate to have such a person.
Who would dare provoke Dragon Country now?
However, what confuses people is that after this battle, Xiao Chen did not request to be reinstated as War God, continuing to live as an ordinary person.
After this battle, four Grandmasters still attempted to renege on their debts, unwilling to abdicate.
As a result, they were secretly captured by the Heavenly King Army.
Considering they were old officials, they were allowed to enjoy their twilight years, but they forfeited all power.
As for the four kings, they were sent to court, sentenced to death.
Executed immediately.
On the day of execution, the people were all delighted.
Such deceivers, cowards on the battlefield, deserve such an end; if they don't die, how can they be worthy of those who have already perished.
It was still the same room.
Still the same old man.
Xiao Chen sat there, sipping tea.
"Hmm, today's tea tastes good."
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"It's the same tea, just the environment changed, so you feel it's better."
The old man chuckled and said, "Do you really not want any rewards?"
"I am already the War God King, what more reward do I need?"
Xiao Chen shook his head and said.
"But you have made such great contributions to Dragon Country, if we don't reward you, the public might not be pleased."
The old man continued.
"As the War God King, this is what I should do."
Xiao Chen said, "But if you insist on giving a reward, just a symbolic gesture will be fine, then you won't be embarrassed."
"You're quite a kid, alright, I know you're afraid of trouble.
If that's the case, then do as you like, live your days quietly, I'll try not to trouble you."
The old man naturally understood Xiao Chen's thoughts.
"Thank you!"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Take care of your health."
He glanced at the old man and stood up to leave.
Then, nationwide news spread, awarding a thousand Demon Slaying Team warriors.
Those who wish to stay in national service can remain.
Those who do not want to stay will be rewarded with vast wealth to live comfortably.
Many envied them for this.
Yet they felt that these warriors deserved such rewards.
Though Jiang Renfeng died.
At least he wasn't a traitor, thus salvaging some reputation without affecting the Beiqi Family.
Jiang Wuyue achieved great merit.
His status within the Beiqi Family also soared rapidly.
The Jiang Clan's opinion of Xiao Chen was unchanged.
Even though Xiao Chen killed the Tyrant King.
But Xiao Chen was formidable before.
They're grateful that Xiao Chen still holds no position.
That's good at least, he can't suppress them.
"This country, you accomplished so much, yet they didn't reinstate you as War God?"
Liu Xin was somewhat displeased.
"Don't say that, it was my own refusal, just live our simple lives, isn't it nice?"
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "I often go out to fight, you must be worried about me, right? Coming home and being taken care of, isn't it comforting?"
Upon hearing this, everyone laughed.
Indeed, being a hero is great, but having a safe and sound family is best.
Nevertheless, this leisurely life of being taken care of lasted only about a month.
At this moment, news came from the Heavenly King Army, asking Xiao Chen to take action on a matter.
Seeking Xiao Chen's opinion.
This was not an order.
Because the old man had promised Xiao Chen, he would never force him to do anything he didn't want.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Well, Beihai Country suddenly invaded Bohai Nation, Bohai Nation is unable to resist, thus seeking aid, hoping Dragon Country would send troops to assist.
Our Dragon Country and Bohai Nation have long-standing friendly relations, plus Bohai Nation promised to give Dragon Country the largest oilfield's exploitation rights for fifty years.
Consider it a reward for this time.
So it's decided to send troops.
Anyway, this is beneficial to us.
But a commander is needed, and above believes you are most suitable."
After hearing the Heavenly King Army's words, Xiao Chen smiled: "Alright, no problem, since the old man has spoken, I have no reason to refuse.
I've been home and almost gone stir-crazy."
Although living comfortably is nice, Xiao Chen was indeed a bit bored.
He is a Martial Artist.
If his skills cannot be displayed, it's truly wasteful.
Just right, according to Jianghu Teahouse's reports, there seems to be nine scrolls in Bohai Nation.
This time, I can search for them along the way.
Bohai Nation.
King of Bohai glanced faintly at the person returning with the report and nodded.
Next to him, his daughter Gongsun Yue frowned and said, "Father, do we really have to give the oilfield exploitation rights to Dragon Country?"
"What else?"
King of Bohai sighed and said, "Now Beihai Country is at the gates, we have no strength to resist, if we want Dragon Country to send troops, we must offer great benefits.
Alright, this is not something for you to worry about.
Maybe when the time comes we won't have to give it.
Beihai Country is powerful, it really is difficult for Dragon Country to defeat them.
Even if they do, it will inevitably lead to mutual destruction.
Then even if I default, Dragon Country should have no way, try to delay fulfilling the commitment for as long as possible."
"Father, if you anger Dragon Country like this, what will we do?"
Gongsun Yue frowned and asked.
"What else can be done? Given our location, it's actually advantageous, if Dragon Country wants to deal with us, we rely on Beihai Country.
If Beihai Country wants to deal with us, we rely on Dragon Country."
King of Bohai said, "This is the survival strategy of small nations."
...
Xiao Chen arrived first at the Northern Border, and for this mission to Bohai Nation, the Northern Border Army will be mainly deployed.
Then the Northern Border Army will be led by War God Chu Jiang.
Speaking of War God.
Because Chen Ping'an died.
So under the old man's suggestion, another War God was inaugurated, that being Huang Tian War God.
Now, the twelve War Gods are complete again.
Moreover, after the battle at the Northern Border, everyone has grown significantly.
Especially having practiced the True Qi Scroll compiled by Xiao Chen.
This enabled their strength to increase by leaps and bounds.
They were already talented, now their power is even more terrifying.
Besides King Chu Jiang, the others are comparable to the Five Tiger Divine Generals under the Tyrant King.
King Chu Jiang however dominates, his combat power even matching the Tyrant King.
Besides the twelve War Gods, Dragon Country has reappointed the Five Tiger Divine Generals.
These Five Tiger Divine Generals were selected from the Dragon Clan.
All are extremely talented individuals.
Additionally, seven superior commanders were picked from civilians and the military for special training.
Their strength is even greater than the previous seven superior commanders.
After all, under the fusion of modern science and ancient martial arts, their improvement is also quicker.
And, whether the twelve War Gods, Five Tiger Divine Generals, or the seven superior commanders, all directly fall under the command of the War God King.
