  The envoy team arrived at Meng Manor. Most of the Meng family members were in Jiang State Capital; only a few—3,000 peopleremained in Eastcalm City.

  The current Meng family clan leader led the Elders to welcome them.

  The Imperial Court’s envoy announced the imperial decree. His voice was loud as the Heaven and Earth powers within a few dozen kilometers rumbled. It could be heard anywhere in Jiang State Capital.

  “Conferment?”

  “The couple have both been conferred kingship and queenship?”

  Everyone in Jiang State Capital was astonished. They stopped what they were doing and listened carefully. King Eastcalm, Meng Chuan! Queen Calmmoon, Liu Qiyue!

  In human history, it was rare for a couple to be conferred the titles of king and queen simultaneously.

  “I’ve never heard of a couple becoming Regis Godfiends.”

  “Did you hear? According to the decree, King Eastcalm, Meng Chuan, contributed greatly to humanity. He killed over one million demon monarchs alone. Is that true? Did I hear wrongly?” “You didn’t hear anything wrong. The decree said: ‘slew one million demon monarchs.’ In the past, a single demon monarch was enough to slaughter county cities. King Eastcalm actually killed so many demon monarchs. How terrifying.” “Amazing.” “Didn’t they say that after one million demon monarchs entered the world, they would slaughter everyone? Now, King Eastcalm has killed over one million demon monarchs alone. Haha, I believe the demons will soon be defeated.”

  Jiang State Capital was filled with discussions.

  News of the couple being conferred kingship and queenship quickly spread across the world. News spread among the Godfiends extremely quickly! Before the Great Zhou Dynasty publicly announced their Regis Godfiend titles, news had already spread among the Godfiends.

  A white-robed woman rushed to meet Bai Nianyun. “Sister Nianyun.”

  “Senior Sister Liu,” said Bai Nianyun politely.

  “Did you hear? A joyous matter has happened. We aren’t far from victory in this war,” said the white-robed woman excitedly.

  Bai Nianyun revealed a look of delight as she asked excitedly, “We aren’t far from victory? What happened?”

  The white-robed woman said, “The demons spared no expense in ambushing Marquis Eastcalm, Meng Chuan. They sent a demon sage to assassinate him. However, Marquis Eastcalm-Meng Chuan—and his wife have long become Regis Godfiends! Furthermore, they have the strength to fight someone a level above them. The two of them joined forces to fend off the demon sage. To their Godfiends, Archean Mountain has already acknowledged that Meng Chuan and his wife have long become Regis Godfiends. Meng Chuan has killed over one million demon monarchs! He’s also about to kill all the demon monarchs in the world. This was why the demon monarchs were desperate to kill him.”Bai Nianyun listened in a daze.

  Her son, Meng Chuan? He killed over a million demon monarchs? They weren’t far from winning this war?

  “I’m quite well-informed. I reckon all the Godfiends in the world will know in a day,” said the white-robed woman excitedly. “It’s a joyous occasion. How long have we waited for this day?” Bai Nianyun nodded gently. “We’ve waited a long time indeed.” The white-robed woman’s eyes were filled with tears. “All these years, so many fellow disciples have died in battle. Now, we’ve finally seen hope.”

  At this moment, an avian demon envoy descended. “Holy Maiden, a letter from the sect.” The avian envoy respectfully handed a letter over.

  Bai Nianyun waved her hand, and the letter fell into her hand. She opened it and read it. The letter explained the entire situation in detail. Bai Nianyun looked at the letter in disbelief. She read it over and over again, reading each word carefully… afraid that she had misunderstood.

  As Bai Nianyun read, her tears flowed uncontrollably.

  “Junior Sister, don’t cry. Now that we see hope of winning the war, you should be happier,” said the white-robed woman.

  Bai Nianyun folded the letter and put it away. She revealed a charming smile. “I’m very happy. I’ve never been happier.”

  Chapter 409 - Chunyu Family’s Revenge

  Bai Nianyun thought about the contents of the letter. This letter that was personally written by Bai Yaoyue explained everything clearly. Black Sand Grotto-Heaven decided to agree to Meng Chuan’s request.

  It’s really rare for Matriarch to bow her head.

  Bai Nianyun knew Bai Yaoyue’s temper very well. Cold, emotionless, protective of her own… Although she was protective of her own but that only applied to the Bai family as a whole.

  As for individual clansmen?

  She only cared about those with strength and potential. She appreciated those with potential and groomed them well. As for those without potentialIn the eyes of the matriarch, they were mere ants!

  The Matriarch’s temperament probably has something to do with the Grand Yin lineage’s heritage. One will become colder and more heartless as they progress further in the Grand Yin cultivation system. Only those with no future in cultivation will get married, thought Bai Nianyun to herself. Back then, her cultivation was still inadequate, so it was easy for her to be tempted. After she married Meng Dajiang and had a child, it affected her cultivation in the Grand Yin cultivation system. Although she had high talent, she improved extremely slowly after becoming a Marquis Godfiend.

  CIIU.

  However, Bai Nianyun didn’t regret it.

  Back then, I risked my life to get the Matriarch to spare the Meng family, but she has never liked the Meng family. Now, for her to bow her head…

  It’s really the Matriarch’s way of doing things. She values strength more. Meng Chuan’s strength has changed the Matriarch’s mind. Although she didn’t know about her son’s Essence Soul cultivation talent, she could discern his talent from the information she had received. He had become a Regis Godfiend in his fifties. He managed to fight a demon sage! Bai Nianyun knew what this meant.

  His achievement of killing one million demon monarchs alone was even more dazzling.

  We’re about to meet. As long as the defense swap happens, I can leave, thought Bai Nianyun in anticipation.

  In a large city manor in a desert oasis.

  Marquis Martial Yang read the letter in his hand. His expression was deep, but his heart trembled slightly.

  How could this be? Meng Chuan is a Regis Godfiend. Furthermore, he secretly became a Regis Godfiend long ago? He can fight a demon sage? He killed over a million demon monarchs alone?

  Marquis Martial Yang glanced at the letter. News of Meng Chuan’s achievements caused all the other Godfiends in the world to cheer, but Marquis Martial Yang panicked. This was because he had once plotted against Meng Chuan’s father.

  The goddess he had pursued for decades had been obtained by an ordinary person. Back then, he had been filled with anger. In order to vent his anger, he had secretly taken action. However, because he was afraid of Archean Mountain, he didn’t dare to be too ruthless. Instead, he framed Meng Dajiang for a crime, hoping to use Archean Mountain to get rid of Meng Dajiang.

  Back then, Meng Chuan was only a Great Solar Godfiend. Although I knew that he was talented and could become a Marquis Godfiend, I am also a Marquis Godfiend. Furthermore, he’s from another sect. I didn’t treat him as a threat at all.

  Who knew that he would become a Regis Godfiend? Even a Regis Godfiend wouldn’t pose much of a threat to me since we are from different sects. However, he’s a Regis Godfiend in his fifties! He’s a Regis Godfiend that can fight a demon sage! He even killed one million demon monarchs alone. Black Sand Grotto-Heaven and Two World Island are greatly indebted to him. He has contributed greatly to the entire human race. Marquis Martial Yang panicked. There are many ways for him to deal with me.

  Marquis Martial Yang regretted his decision. Why did he do that back then?

  As a Marquis Godfiend, he had immense power. He didn’t pay much attention to the occasional ants he squashed to death. However, after plotting aga
inst Meng Dajiang, it backfired on him 20 years later!

  Back then, I did everything cleanly. Very few people knew about my actions behind the scenes. The one who did the deed was Chunyu Mu. He was a Mirage Fiend that had reached the Realm of Dao. Furthermore, he has long been dead. Supremacy Yaoyue knows about this, but there’s no need to inform Archean Mountain.

  The information can be leaked from two possible avenues. One: the upper echelons of Black Sand Grotto-Heaven-Supremacy Yaoyue and the others. If more higher-ranking people know about my actions, there’s a higher chance of a leak. Two: Chunyu Mu! Could Chunyu Mu have leaked the news to more people? Marquis Martial Yang thought anxiously. As long as he did something, he would always leave behind flaws. It would be difficult to cover them up now.

  The imperial capital of Black Sand Dynasty.

  Meng Chuan killed a million demon monarchs alone? He has long become a Regis Godfiend. He fought a demon sage, who’s above his level? A middle-aged man read the letter. His eyes were cold. Marquis Martial Yang, you probably didn’t expect this day to come.

  My father’s illusions had reached the Realm of Dao. He did a lot of dirty work for you when he was alive. Just because he didn’t do a clean job with Meng Dajiang, Black Sand Grotto-Heaven’s upper echelons learned about it and punished you harshly. You ended up venting your anger on my Chunyu family. Thankfully, my father had already expected this. As a Mirage Fiend, my father made contingency plans for the family clan. That’s how our family clan survived.

  A Mirage Fiend at the Realm of Dao could change the memories of ordinary Godfiends and easily control mortals.

  Therefore, the contingencies he left for the family clan couldn’t be easily detected.

  My father has done dirty work for you several times. He also has some evidence against you. However, they aren’t concrete evidence. Furthermore, it can’t bring you down. Back then, you were harshly punished when the job failed. Not only did you fail to give the benefits you promised to the Chunyu family, you even took your anger out on my Chunyu family and suppressed us. You forced my Chunyu family to divide into two factions. Even the direct descendants have completely changed. My Chunyu family has endured for over 20 years. I originally thought I’d have to endure it forever. I never expected Meng Chuan to shock everyone with a single feat. He can fight a demon sage and kill a million demon monarchs alone. He’s really the most dazzling Regis Godfiend in the present generation. The middle-aged man’s eyes were filled with hatred. He immediately sat in front of his desk, picked up a brush, and began writing. He wrote to Meng Chuan.Before my father died, he left behind a personally-written letter. The middle-aged man placed the letter he wrote with his father’s personal letter. The two letters will be sent over together. Only then will King Eastcalm truly believe it.

  However, he didn’t know that Meng Chuan had long known that Chunyu Mu was the one who had done the deed. However, he couldn’t do much since it crossed sect jurisdictions.

  That day, the middle-aged man sent this letter through the Demon Annihilation Guild branch in the imperial capital. To prevent any leaks from happening, he didn’t use Black Sand Grotto-Heaven’s channels.

  The Demon Annihilation Guild was different. The Demon Annihilation Guild’s influence spread throughout the world. They had a good relationship with the three sects. The letter would be sent to Archean Mountain via the Demon Annihilation Guild before it was handed to Meng Chuan.

  It costs 5,000 taels of silver to send a letter to King Eastcalm. The middle-aged man shook his head secretly. He was an ordinary Godfiend and was also skilled with illusions. With his father’s inheritance, 5,000 taels of silver wasn’t worth mentioning to the Chunyu family. However, the Chunyu family was already past its prime. Even the direct descendants of the Chunyu family had changed. One had to know that Chunyu Mu was a Mirage Fiend at the Realm of Dao. Furthermore, he had cultivated an Essence Soul. Although he had remained a Great Solar Godfiend due to his age, the Chunyu family was still prosperous for a period of time.

  The Chunyu family’s previous dazzling status only served as a contrast to how sorry its present state was.

  The middle-aged man became even more furious with Marquis Martial Yang. He wanted to pull him down ruthlessly.

  This letter took two days to travel from the Demon Annihilation Guild to Archean Mountain. After another day, it was sent to Meng Chuan in Jiang State Capital.

  Chapter 410 - Dealing with Marquis Martial Yang

  At night, Meng Chuan and his wife ate dinner. “Ah Chuan, there are two letters.” Liu Qiyue placed the letters on the table. “They are for you.”

  The two letters were not opened. In fact, for an avian envoy to give Liu Qiyue the letters directly meant that it wasn’t that important. If it was a top-secret letter, Meng Chuan would definitely have to receive it personally.

  “Two letters?” Meng Chuan looked at them in surprise. “One is a letter sent from Black Sand Grotto-Heaven, and the other is a letter sent through the Demon Annihilation Guild? I wonder who sent the letter through the Demon Annihilation Guild.”

  As the fourth strongest faction in the human world, the Demon Annihilation Guild wouldn’t easily send letters to Meng Chuan. One had to be a member of the Demon Annihilation Guild before they had the qualifications to do so. If they were mortal Demon Annihilation Guild members, they would need to pay 50,000 taels of silver to have them send a letter to Meng Chuan.

  If they were Demon Annihilation Guild Godfiends, they would need to pay 5,000 taels of silver to have them send a letter to Meng Chuan. This was because the Demon Annihilation Guild needed to hand the letter to Archean Mountain; it would then be delivered to Meng Chuan. Archean Mountain didn’t want to disturb Meng Chuan randomly. Thus, they had set high requirements on which letters could be sent to Meng Chuan. Therefore, Meng Chuan was very surprised to receive a letter from the Demon Annihilation Guild.

  “Black Sand Grotto-Heaven.” Meng Chuan flipped open the envelope he was most concerned about. He read the letter and revealed a look of excitement.

  “Has Black Sand Grotto-Heaven answered?” asked Liu Qiyue.

  “Yes, they’ve agreed.” Meng Chuan nodded excitedly. “However, they need to do a defense swap if my mom is to leave. Therefore, it has been decided that I’ll head to Black Sand Grotto-Heaven in half a month to bring her back.”

  Liu Qiyue was also happy for her husband. “Ah Chuan, the wish you’ve had for years is finally coming true.”

  I’ve been waiting for this day for more than 50 years. It’s been too long. The storm of blood had passed. When he parted with his mother, he was still a six-year-old child. Although he was a famous Regis Godfiend, Meng Chuan’s emotions surged. He couldn’t hide his excitement. I believe that Dad will be very happy when he learns of this news.

  “Dad is still a Patroller Godfiend,” said Liu Qiyue. “He can’t leave his designated mission area.”

  Meng Chuan shook his head and explained, “Right now, the three major sects are planning to reduce the number of patrolling Godfiends. They want the patrolling Godfiends to return home gradually. In half a year, there will be no need for Godfiends to patrol the world.”

  “There’s no need for them anymore?” Liu Qiyue was surprised. “Even if you wipe out all the demon monarchs in the world, with so many stable and unstable World Entrances, demons will still occasionally infiltrate the human world. We will still have a need for some forces to patrol the world.”

  “The demon monarchs that occasionally enter the human world pose a much lesser threat. Earth Net will also monitor them everywhere they go. Furthermore, I captured some threshold fourth Firmament demon monarchs as demon servants when I was busy conducting underground reconnaissance,” said Meng Chuan with a smile. “These demon servants have been sent to Archean Mountain. Archean Mountain’s demon servant numbers have been greatly boosted. They just need to arrange for a number of demon servants to patrol the world.” These were demon servants that he personally selected from one mill
ion demon monarchs. “The large group of powerful demon servants will be of great help to Earth Net,” said Meng Chuan. “Archean Mountain plans to reduce the number of patrolling Godfiends by 500. My father is one of them.”

  Meng Chuan opened the second letter. It was the letter that was sent through the Demon Annihilation Guild.

  Oh? Meng Chuan looked at the two letters in the envelope in surprise. One was written with blood. It should have been written more than ten years ago. The other letter was recently written.

  Chunyu Mu? Meng Chuan read the contents of the letter.

  “What’s written in the letter that was sent through the Demon Annihilation Guild?” asked Liu Qiyue.

  “Back then, my father was framed for colluding with the Skydemon Sect. Later, Master personally pried into heavenly secrets and traced the karma. Only then did he discover that Chunyu Mu from Black Sand Grotto-Heaven had carried out the deed,” said Meng Chuan.

  Liu Qiyue nodded. “You’ve told me about this before. Since we were in different sects, punishing Black Sand Grotto-Heaven disciples isn’t under Archean Mountain’s jurisdiction. Furthermore, the three sects are working together to deal with the demons. It’s not good to execute them directly.”

  “Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded. “Now, Chunyu Mu’s son has written a letter to me; there’s also a letter that Chunyu Mu left behind before his death. The two letters confirm one thing… Marquis Martial Yang from Black Sand Grotto-Heaven instigated Chunyu Mu into framing my father.” “Marquis Martial Yang?” Liu Qiyue asked curiously. “He’s a Marquis Godfiend from Black Sand Grotto-Heaven. Since we are Archean Mountain Godfiends, it’s not convenient for us to attack him directly.”

  “Back then, when he failed to frame my dad, Black Sand Grotto-Heaven actually found out the truth and punished Marquis Martial Yang. Marquis Martial Yang also vented his anger on the Chunyu family. The Chunyu family has been in a tragic state in recent years. Now that they know that I’ve become a Regis Godfiend, they are immediately telling me about it,” said Meng Chuan. “However, back then, Black Sand Grotto-Heaven didn’t punish Marquis Martial Yang harshly. They clearly weren’t willing to kill one of their Marquis Godfiends because of my dad.
