The Empress’s Blind Consort: Invincible in Secret

Vol2 – Chapter 49 – Great Jin allies, you’re truly formidable

In the eastern territories, near the Great Jin Dynasty, lies a small to medium-sized nation called the Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets, only three thousand miles away.

The ruler of this empire is not called an Emperor but a 'Chief.'

Their residence is not called a palace but a royal abode, modest in scale, covering only a few hundred acres. Compared to the Great Jin Palace, it appears like an ordinary household.

At this moment.

The royal abode is in chaos. Hundreds of servants are bustling in and out of the courtyard, carrying various exquisite ingredients, their expressions filled with fear.

All the ministers are kneeling in front of the main hall, and even the Chief of the Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets stands respectfully at the door, utterly submissive.

"It seems Pu Lingzi has already met the Empress of Great Jin," a lazy male voice came from inside the room.

The Chief, named Oakiki Saburo, who looks about thirty, immediately flattered, "Your Excellency, your foresight is unparalleled. How did you know about the events in the Imperial Capital of Great Jin?"

A tall, handsome young man in black robes lay sprawled across the Chief's throne, his legs draped over the left armrest, his head resting on the right armrest, as two shy princesses fed him grapes.

Hearing Oakiki Saburo's words, the young man chuckled and said, "Jiang Canghai led an army of a million, urgently redeploying half of his generals for a surprise attack on the Western Buddhist Kingdom. The only reason for such urgency is that the high-ranking officials of Great Jin know of my arrival and are desperate to unify the Wilderness to gain leverage against me."

Ji Wushuang's eyes gleamed with golden light as he slowly withdrew his gaze from the east.

Oakiki Saburo's face remained calm, pretending to ponder before suddenly realizing, "No matter how powerful the Empress of Great Jin is, she couldn't have foreseen your arrival. It must have been Pu Lingzi and Yin-Yang Elder who personally informed her, which is how Great Jin found out."

At this point, Oakiki Saburo lowered his head, his eyes filled with complex emotions. After a long while, he slowly raised his head, suppressing the turmoil in his eyes, and said with a fawning smile, "Your Excellency, your plans are flawless. As the foremost young talent of Sky State, you seek both power and beauty. Proposing marriage is one strategy, announcing your arrival to Great Jin to pressure them into disarray is another."

The ministers kneeling at the door raised their heads, silently watching Oakiki Saburo with emotions of disappointment, disdain, resentment, and anger.

How humiliating for a ruler to grovel before another!

Oakiki Saburo dared not look back, fearing the contemptuous gazes of his ministers. Ever since Ji Wushuang arrived in the Wilderness a week ago, his first stop was the Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets.

At that time, Ji Wushuang did not announce his identity but chose to challenge the nation, single-handedly defeating all its peak forces. Only then did he change his fierce demeanor and discuss matters amicably.

Upon hearing that Ji Wushuang was the Second Young Master of the Ji family from Sky State, Oakiki Saburo was overjoyed. When he heard that Ji Wushuang wanted to support the Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets in unifying the Wilderness, Oakiki Saburo, in a moment of excitement, agreed immediately.

The result was...

In just a few days, the upper echelons of the Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets underwent a complete overhaul. The ruling party was entirely replaced by Ji Wushuang's confidants. The few irreplaceable pillars of the nation who refused to comply were all imprisoned by Ji Wushuang, forced to kneel at the door all day, forbidden from any activity.

Oakiki Saburo himself was also completely sidelined, becoming a puppet ruler.

Only then did Oakiki Saburo realize that the visitor from Sky State was not a savior but a demon, a predator, the most ruthless of all!

"I know you harbor resentment, so there's no need to feign obedience. I don't need your false compliance," Ji Wushuang glanced at Oakiki Saburo, pulling the two princesses closer, his hand slipping into their collars as he nonchalantly said, "All I need is to use the Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets as a stepping stone to help me unify the Wilderness, nothing more."

"Once it's done, I can promise you a position as the Ji family's representative in the Wilderness, a status no less than that of a regional lord."

Oakiki Saburo's eyes twitched, his peripheral vision catching his two daughters' shy and angry faces, their hands clenched and then slowly loosening in helplessness.

"Thank you... Your Excellency," Oakiki Saburo forced a bright smile, never once looking directly at his daughters, as if he didn't care at all.

Suddenly.

Ji Wushuang tilted his head in confusion, his gaze turning towards the direction of the Great Jin Dynasty, murmuring to himself, "Hmm?"

"How did Pu Lingzi die?"

"My eyes, taken from a naturally double-pupiled prodigy of Sky State, should see through everything. How can I not see through the Imperial Capital of Great Jin...?"

Hearing this, Oakiki Saburo felt a surge of satisfaction but maintained a calm expression, secretly observing Ji Wushuang's reaction, hoping to see some disappointment or anger.

At this moment, the person Oakiki Saburo most wanted to kill was right in front of him! The demon he once regarded as a savior!

If the Great Jin Dynasty could make Ji Wushuang suffer a setback, he wouldn't mind adding insult to injury.

However, Oakiki Saburo was soon disappointed.

Ji Wushuang merely shook his head slightly, smiling indifferently, "Never mind, it's just a dog being beaten to death."

Oakiki Saburo was shocked.

A dog?!

A peerless Great Being in the late Morning Glow Realm, reduced to such a description by Ji Wushuang?

"What?" Ji Wushuang noticed Oakiki Saburo's inadvertent surprise and smiled, "In my eyes, a person's true value is determined by their talent, fortune, and wisdom. For instance, among the billions of beings in the Wilderness, only a few dozen catch my eye. The rest... are no different from livestock."

As he said this, Ji Wushuang's gaze swept over everyone present.

Livestock...

Oakiki Saburo's forehead veins bulged.

Too arrogant! This bastard deserves to be struck by lightning!

At this moment.

The sky changed color, and faint thunder could be heard. Everyone looked towards the sound, seeing dark clouds gathering, with an ancient Heavenly Court faintly visible above.

"Is it really happening?" Oakiki Saburo's eyes filled with hope.

Could it be that the heavens have eyes and will grant his wish, striking Ji Wushuang with lightning?

"The Nine Layers of Divine Tribulation!??" Ji Wushuang's expression changed drastically, his eyes widening as he stared at the sky, shouting in shock and anger, "How is this possible!"

Years ago, when he broke through to the Morning Glow Realm, he only attracted the Eight Layers of Divine Tribulation, which caused countless forces to vie for his favor and geniuses to flock to him.

Now, in this so-called barbaric and uncivilized Wilderness, someone with greater talent than him has appeared! How could he, with his arrogant nature, remain calm?

"Your Excellency, it hurts," the two princesses whimpered, trembling as they spoke.

Ji Wushuang's hands had unconsciously tightened, hurting the two girls. Hearing this, he restrained his anger and regained his composure.

"The tribulation comes from the direction of Great Jin. Who is it? The Space-Time Sword Saint or the Empress of Great Jin..."

"The Empress of Great Jin broke through to Morning Glow not long ago, unless she ascended to the Sky-Reaching Realm, but that's impossible."

"Is it Meng Qin..."

Ji Wushuang pushed the two princesses aside, standing at the door, gazing into the distance, his eyes deep and contemplative.

He remained silent for a long time.

Oakiki Saburo stood respectfully behind him, a hint of pleasure flashing in his eyes.

Heh!

The show-off finally couldn't hold it together!

Great Jin allies, you're amazing! Try to kill this guy!

Time passed slowly, and Ji Wushuang remained motionless, waiting.

Waiting for news from Yin-Yang Elder. Since the tribulation came from the Great Jin Dynasty, Yin-Yang Elder must be there.

Ji Wushuang held Yin-Yang Elder in slightly higher regard, given his high level of expertise in formations, which posed a threat to him.

Slaughtering the barbarians of the Wilderness was no problem.

As he pondered, Ji Wushuang sensed through the slave mark that Yin-Yang Elder's life force suddenly withered and then extinguished!

"Even Yin-Yang Elder is dead! Who dares to kill my people?" Ji Wushuang roared in anger, no longer able to maintain his calm demeanor.

"I must see who is so audacious."

With that, Ji Wushuang tore through the void, stepping out towards the Imperial Capital of Great Jin!

...

Oakiki Saburo let out a long breath, his smile as radiant as a chrysanthemum.

The show-off finally cracked, and my heart is greatly comforted. Great Jin allies, you're truly formidable.
