Fantasy: Unparalleled Prince, Conquering the Heavens!

Chapter 1244: Chapter 1238: Plunder

One ’day’ later.

Qin Wudao, wearing imperial robes, walked into the court with a bright smile, sitting majestically on the emperor’s throne, exuding imperial might that suppressed time and space.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

In the spacious hall, the civil and military officials respectfully saluted.

"Rise!"

Overlooking the ministers, most of whom he recognized, Qin Wudao noticed only a few unfamiliar faces.

It is worth mentioning that all the ministers in the hall exuded a powerful aura.

The lowest cultivation level had reached Peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm.

"Courtiers, do you have any important matters to report?"

Qin Wudao inquired.

"Your Majesty, General Zhao is currently leading an army to attack ’Tianluan Mountain’ and requests the court to dispatch Array Masters for support!"

Zhuge Liang was the first to step forward, presenting a memorial and reporting respectfully.

"Granted!"

Qin Wudao read through the memorial, a hint of surprise on his face, not expecting that during his years of seclusion, Zhao Yun and his generals not only occupied the Ancient Ferocious Mountain Range but also defeated the coalition forces of nine great powers and launched a counterattack.

Seeing how diligent his ministers were, as a monarch, he naturally could not lag behind.

Without hesitation, he immediately agreed to Zhao Yun’s request.

"Your Majesty, it has been several years since the expeditionary army occupied the Eternal World, yet the court has not implemented a management plan for it, requiring a decision from your Majesty!"

Guo Jia stepped forward to report.

The Eternal World.

A world larger than all the heavens and realms combined.

Such a major issue, they naturally did not dare to make decisions on their own, so for several years, they had not dispatched officials to manage the Eternal World.

Although Qin Wudao had entrusted them with state affairs before his seclusion.

They were aware that some things could be done, accomplishing them would earn rewards, whereas other matters were sensitive, and even if capable, they should not be touched.

Management and development of the Eternal World fall under sensitive issues.

Moreover, this problem is difficult to solve!

On the emperor’s throne.

Qin Wudao looked at the memorial, frowning slightly.

The Eternal World is too far from all the heavens and realms; even the expeditionary army took several years to get there.

A regular Martial Artist would need at least decades, if not longer, to reach the Eternal World.

It’s simply not suitable for management.

"What do you suggest?"

After pondering for a while, Qin Wudao asked Guo Jia.

He had long seen through the little schemes of the court officials, who surely already had a detailed plan laid out, only hesitating to present it due to concerns.

"Your Majesty, I propose plundering the Eternal World!"

Guo Jia stepped forward, cupping his hands to report.

Plunder!

Qin Wudao fell silent.

He knew that once a world is plundered, it would head towards destruction, requiring countless years to recover new life.

Moreover, plundering is a one-time deal; if they could manage the Eternal World, they would reap continuous benefits.

"Is there no other way?"

Qin Wudao asked again.

"Your Majesty, we don’t have sufficient time to manage the Eternal World!"

"Compared to the Mysterious Universe, the Qin Dynasty is still too small. To develop rapidly, we can only take the path of plunder!"

Guo Jia shook his head and said.

Managing the Eternal World, the Qin Dynasty could do it, but there’s no need.

How many years did it take for the Qin Dynasty to rise from all the heavens and realms to now?

Less than a thousand years!

And to manage the Eternal World, with the current national strength of the Qin Dynasty, it would take at least over five hundred years to see significant effects, too time-consuming, which would slow down the Dynasty’s development.

"Issue an order to plunder the Eternal World!"

Upon hearing Guo Jia’s words, Qin Wudao paused for a moment and then sternly commanded.

He was not a pedantic person!

Destroying a world is indeed somewhat inhumane, against the natural order.

However, looking at the Mysterious Universe, the Qin Dynasty is still in the primitive accumulation phase; in the future development process, bloodshed and slaughter are bound to happen.

Moreover, as Guo Jia said, their time is running out; in a hundred years, the Qin Dynasty will be at war with Hongjun.

To win the war a hundred years later, he must do everything possible to strengthen the Qin Dynasty’s forces.

Plundering is undoubtedly the fastest, most labor-saving, and most efficient way.

As for the consequences, he does not care!

He is a monarch, not a saint!

As long as the Qin Dynasty thrives, as long as those he cares about live well, even if the grand way is destroyed, the world restarted, he would not care.

"As you command!"

Guo Jia replied, secretly relieved, afraid that Qin Wudao would be stubborn and unwilling to take drastic measures.

Now, it seems his worries were completely unnecessary; Qin Wudao has already become a qualified ruler.

"Where is the expeditionary army located now?"

After dealing with the issues of the Eternal World, Qin Wudao thought of the past several years without any notification from the system about occupying new worlds, and he couldn’t help but ask.

During his seclusion, the system’s annual sign-in reward was the "Yongle Encyclopedia," making him eager to receive other rewards.

"Your Majesty, if nothing unexpected happened, the expeditionary army should have reached the Three Capitals World!"

Xiao He stepped forward and replied, cupping his hands.

He is currently responsible for the expeditionary army’s logistics, thus he is quite familiar with its marching route.

The Three Capitals World!

The world closest to the Eternal World!

Though saying it’s the closest, in reality, it is extremely distant, as the worlds surrounding the Eternal World have been completely plundered by the Eternal Race, becoming abandoned worlds.

So the location of the Three Capitals World is equivalent to the distance from all the heavens and realms to the Eternal World.

No choice; the Mysterious Universe is unimaginably vast.

Exploration is exceedingly time-consuming.

...

In the boundless cosmos.

In a certain dark starry universe, a large-scale army sped forward, moving incredibly fast, appearing in a different starfield in the blink of an eye.

They are solitary travelers!

They are brave explorers!

"Report! General, thirty light-years ahead is the coordinate of the Three Capitals World!"

A scout flew in from the distant starry sky, the power of an Immortal Emperor flashing, causing ripples in the surrounding starscape.

"We’ve finally arrived!"

At the front of the army, Bai Qi held a blood sword, his blood-red hair fluttering. Upon hearing the scout’s report, a hint of excitement gleamed in his eyes as he gazed ahead.

Instantly, two beams of blood-colored eye light burst forth, piercing through tens of light-years of the starry sky, ultimately colliding with a crystal wall.

Boom!

An explosion sounded from afar.

Then the starscape shook, and the thick crystal wall was directly blown with two ten-thousand-mile holes.

"Who goes there?"

"Daring to stir trouble in the Three Capitals World, are you courting death?"

A loud voice echoed from within the Three Capitals World.

Soon after, an old man with graying hair, wielding a large blade, flew out of the shattered crystal wall, holy power sweeping around, containing a savage aura that boiled the nearby stars.

"Early Stage of Dao Saint!"

Bai Qi sized up the old man and said softly.

At this time, the graying old man also noticed Bai Qi, a sinister smile appearing on his wrinkled face: "A Quasi-Saint Peak ant, daring to explore the Mysterious Universe, how bold you are!"

As he spoke, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had traveled through the Mysterious Universe and knew that the peak powerhouses of this universe were at the Unity Realm Stage, fond of plundering lower civilizations.

Originally, he was worried that the Three Capitals World might be discovered by Unity Realm powerhouses.

Unexpectedly, it was merely a Quasi-Saint Peak ant leading a group of small ants!
