Chapter 167: The New Emperor (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Mei Changge took the scroll that the Golden Crow Guards had just handed him and said with a strange expression.
“The Great Song is dead, and a new emperor will be enthroned!”
“Well…
When Yue Fei saw the large words on the scroll, his face was filled with disbelief.
This scroll wrote that the Great Song royal family was cursed by the heavens, indicating that a new emperor was about to ascend the throne.
This had utterly dismantled the concealment of the Great Song royal family.
“There must be numerous scrolls like this. Beyond just Xiangyang City, I believe the entire Great Song is in turmoil.”
Mei Changge gently tapped the handle of the chair with his finger.
Yue Fei and Guo Jing read the scroll. For a moment, only the sound of Mei Changge knocking on the chair was left in the room.
Tap.
Tap.
“My lord, please save the Great Song!”
Yue Fei stood up and bowed to Mei Changge with a serious expression.
Chaos had already begun to engulf the Great Song, and it was the lower-class populace of the Great Song who would undoubtedly bear the brunt of the suffering.
Once the tumultuous conflict erupted, it would inevitably spread throughout the entirety of the Great Song, sparing even some martial artists from its impact.
In the absence of Mei Changge, Yue Fei and Guo Jing would have undoubtedly aligned themselves with those they held in high regard and provided their support. Nonetheless, Yue Fei held the belief that Mei Changge possessed the strength to exert control over the entire Great Song.
“My lord! Please save the Great Song!”
Guo Jing could see it too. He stood up and bowed to Mei Changge, his face solemn and pleading.
With the Great Song in chaos, it was impossible to stay out of trouble. The best way to save the Great Song was to rely on his powerful strength.
Mei Changge thought for a moment and looked at Yue Fei and Guo Jing.
It was not difficult for him to do it. It could even be said that this was his plan all along.
When he learned from Yue Fei that the Great Song royal family no longer existed, he had already had this idea.
“In that case, let’s conquer the entire Great Song!”
Mei Changge finally made up his mind and planned to conquer the entire Great Song.
In terms of talents or treasures, Mei Changge considered the Great Song to be already within his grasp. Both talents and treasures could bide their time for now.
“Yue Fei, Guo Jing, you have to know that after restoring order in the Great Song, the Great Song will no longer exist.”
Mei Changge looked at the two of them and said calmly.
“My lord, the Great Song has long ceased to exist! I’m willing to follow you to restore order!”
When Yue Fei heard Mei Change’s words, his face lit up. He knew that Mei Change had already made up his mind. Then, he had a serious expression.
Since Mei Changge became his lord, the Great Song’s Yue Fei had disappeared, leaving only Yue Fei from the Green Lotus Territory.
“My lord, me too.”
Guo Jing also had a serious expression as he spoke to Mei Changge.
“Alright, in that case, let’s start with Lin’an City!”
“Yue Fei, contact Han Shizhong and see if he’s willing to follow me. If he’s unwilling, I can let him go this time.”
Mei Changge looked at Yue Fei and smiled. After all, he was Yue Fei’s friend. If he was unwilling to submit, Mei Changge could consider letting him off this time.
Although the Han army was as famous as the Yue army, in Mei Changge’s opinion, an army without official soldiers was too inferior.
“As for Guo Jing, you also have connections in the martial arts world. Think of a way to get a large number of martial artists to go to Lin’an City.”
“That includes the Grandmasters of the Great Song. It’s best to lure them to Lin’an City.”
Mei Changge said to Guo Jing in a serious tone.
“My lord, it will be a little challenging.”
Guo Jing looked troubled. The martial artists were not like the people in the imperial court. It would be difficult to gather them in Lin’an.
“Divine weapons, spirit pills, and immortality!”
Mei Changge said softly. These were all things that attracted people.
“As for these things, hasn’t Lin’an City already prepared them?”
Mei Changge said with a smile.
If there was anything alluring about the Great Song, it would undoubtedly be those treasures that descended from the heavens.
From Mei Changge’s perspective, Lin’an City had essentially set the stage, and all that remained was for him to take the spotlight.
However, this stage had originally been crafted by the people of the Great Song to welcome their new emperor. Furthermore, it bore the imprint of the Great Song martial artists within it.
“My lord, I understand!”
Guo Jing examined the scroll in his hand. After heeding Mei Changge’s guidance, he recognized that the contents of this scroll were the ideal bait to draw in martial artists.
“But I’ll have to add something more.”
Mei Changge smiled. With a thought, the Blessed Land mark between his eyebrows flickered slightly.
Then, some items appeared in Mei Changge’s hand.
“These are brand new scrolls. Distribute them in the martial arts world of the
Great Song.”
Mei Changge took out one of the scrolls and handed it to Guo Jing.
Rather than a scroll, it was more like a bone-made booklet with some information engraved on it.
This booklet made from bone could be described as far more exquisite than a regular scroll. Most notably, the bone appeared to emit a jade-like radiance.
“My lord, isn’t this too wasteful?”
Guo Jing’s heart ached as he looked at the book Mei Changge had thrown at him.
At a glance, this book appeared expensive. Moreover, it seemed to be made of jade as if it was exuding a faint white light.
“You can have as much of this stuff as you want. If you ever want more, I’ll even send you a whole carriage of it.
Mei Changge looked at Guo Jing’s expression and could not help but laugh..
