Madame Gou Yi's age is not far from that of Lotus Princess, both are women of great temperament and presence, equally beautiful and alluring.

However, in Wang Xiaoqiang's opinion, there are still differences between these two extraordinary women.

Madame Gou Yi is alluring, while Lotus Princess is enchanting.

The beauty of Lotus Princess is calm and serene, putting people at ease; the beauty of Madame Gou Yi, on the other hand, makes people feel uneasy. On a small scale, this woman is harmful to men, on a large scale, she is capable of overthrowing a city or a nation.

This woman had previously brought several countries to ruin, and now Great Yue Kingdom has fallen under her sway once again.

After careful consideration, Wang Xiaoqiang decided not to become the Emperor of Great Yue Kingdom, to avoid being ruined by this woman.

Great Yue Kingdom would still be governed by Madame Gou Yi; however, Madame Gou Yi must belong to Wang Xiaoqiang, meaning she could only be Wang Xiaoqiang's woman. In reality, it meant Wang Xiaoqiang was secretly ruling Great Yue Kingdom. To put it bluntly, it was using Madame Gou Yi as a puppet emperor.

Madame Gou Yi was saved by Wang Xiaoqiang and entrusted herself to him, which led to a great change in her mentality. Regarding Wang Xiaoqiang's decision, she had no objections. After all, she was different from Long Yin.

Long Yin is a complete puppet emperor, merely a figurehead in the Yellow Dragon Empire. Whereas she could still govern Great Yue Kingdom, wielding real power.

The Yellow Dragon Empire is now governed by Lotus Princess, dominated by Wang Xiaoqiang, just as Great Yue Kingdom is dominated by Wang Xiaoqiang but governed by Madame Gou Yi.

In any case, she is still the Empress of Great Yue Kingdom, still ruling it, and that is enough.

"Ah? I really want to meet Lotus Princess, what kind of charming person could she be..." Madame Gou Yi said eagerly, showing her great interest in Lotus Princess, a name well-known, with a hint of mutual admiration.

"Meeting her won't be difficult, I can arrange it later." Wang Xiaoqiang smiled as he admired Madame Gou Yi's charming face after their passion.

"I've heard she's an incredibly beautiful figure, the citizens of Yellow Dragon Empire consider seeing her as a blessing, is that true?" Madame Gou Yi's eyes glimmered with anticipation.

"She's quite beautiful indeed." Wang Xiaoqiang said, picturing Lotus Princess's unrivaled face in his mind, enjoying Madame Gou Yi's allure, yet he anticipated even more Lotus Princess's serene enchantment.

The woman Wang Xiaoqiang most wanted to conquer now was Lotus Princess, but she was also the most challenging to conquer.

"How beautiful, is she more beautiful than me?" Madame Gou Yi asked with a tinge of jealousy, supportively resting her delicate elbow on her fragrant cheek, eyes gazing at Wang Xiaoqiang.

"You're different," Wang Xiaoqiang mused, gazing at the vibrant body of the alluring Madame Gou Yi, "I can't quite say specifically where, if you truly wish to know, I can arrange for you two to meet and then you can compare... hehe..."

Wang Xiaoqiang grinned mischievously.

"Oh, you're so mischievous!" Madame Gou Yi poked Wang Xiaoqiang's forehead with her delicate finger,

...

Great Yue Kingdom faced a major catastrophe, all citizens including civil and military officials believed the country was about to fall, about to change hands, but to their surprise, Great Yue Kingdom neither fell nor changed hands, Yue Kingdom remained Yue Kingdom, the Emperor remained Madame Gou Yi, and the civil and military officials were still the same group, only the position of Grand Marshal of Soldiers and Horses changed hands to Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang had become the Grand Marshal of Soldiers and Horses of Yue Kingdom, controlling the empire's military power.

Yet the entire Yue Kingdom was extremely wary of this newly appointed Grand Marshal, because they understood very well, this man was the true ruler of Great Yue Kingdom.

Madame Gou Yi was simply one of his women, or rather a puppet under his command.

After gaining control over Yue Kingdom, Wang Xiaoqiang took out half of the gold coins from Yue Kingdom's treasury and placed them in the Sumeru Ring, for future cultivation use.

It has proven that gold coins are exceedingly rare.

Even the treasury of Great Yue Kingdom had only 80 million coins, Wang Xiaoqiang took half, meaning 40 million coins. To an empire, 40 million coins were considerable wealth, but to Wang Xiaoqiang, it was a drop in the ocean.

Cultivating the Undying Golden Body requires a large number of gold coins, and the cultivation resources worth 40 million coins probably wouldn't even reach the Minor Completion Realm.

Wang Xiaoqiang decided to continue invading, stripping gold coins through invasion to facilitate cultivation, this was the only way. Yet before invading other countries, Wang Xiaoqiang decided to cease military activities and reorganize, augmenting Yue Kingdom's elite army by forming a Ring Spirit Formation to bolster military strength.

Yue Kingdom's forces were still rather strong, the elite troops alone totaled over a million cultivators above True Immortal Realm,

Eliminating the weak and retaining the strong, Wang Xiaoqiang trimmed the figure to 1 million, handing them over to Cheng Jin to form 100 Myriad Circle Spirit Formations.

The excess numbered in the thousands, forming Thousand-Position Spirit Formations, those numbers still reached over 100 thousand, capable of forming 100 Thousand-Position Spirit Formations.

While Cheng Jin was structuring the Spirit Formations, Wang Xiaoqiang was enjoying himself like a king in Great Yue Royal Palace, though he was not the Emperor in name, in reality his power surpassed the Emperor, and his treatment was better than the Emperor's.

Firstly, he could freely withdraw gold coins from the national treasury.

Secondly, all his consumption and expenses were implemented according to Great Yue Kingdom Emperor's standards.

Moreover, the crucial point was the Empress of Great Yue Kingdom, Madame Gou Yi, was his woman.

Of course, amidst the enjoyment, Wang Xiaoqiang did not forget his cultivation, as everything he had today was due to strong power, so he placed greater emphasis on enhancing his power.

The millions of gold coins looted from Prince Hong and the 40 million extracted from Yue Kingdom's treasury advanced his Body Refining Cultivation towards the Undying Golden Body - Minor Completion Realm considerably, only half a step away from breaking through.

However, the gold coins were tied to Great Yue Kingdom's economic lifeline and crucial to people's livelihood, Wang Xiaoqiang could not use them all recklessly, as it would plunge the country into an economic crisis, driving the people into dire straits, a scenario Wang Xiaoqiang wished to avoid.

Without Body Refining Resources, Wang Xiaoqiang decided to take this opportunity to elevate his Qi Practice Cultivation while also cultivating Sword Spirit.

With the Undying Golden Body as assurance, coupled with Yue Kingdom's vast Superior Pills available for unrestrained use, within a mere two months, Wang Xiaoqiang's Qi Practice Cultivation advanced to a new level, reaching the Seven Elephant Realm Stage of the Immortal King. The seventh Thunder Elephant reborn amidst electric arcs, emitted rumbling sounds internally, empowering Wang Xiaoqiang's entire body with tremendous force. It was as if he embodied a Thunder Idol.

Wang Xiaoqiang felt his power had multiplied significantly. With a thought, the newly condensed Divine Elephant flew out of his body, emanating electric arcs throughout its frame, another thought, and six Thunder Elephants also emerged, merging into his power. Seven Thunder Elephants hovered above Wang Xiaoqiang's head, exuding awe-inspiring might, with electric arcs surging throughout their bodies, roaring and bellowing, resembling Ancient God Elephants descending to the mortal realm.
