Chapter 275 - 274: The Great Western Heaven Will Also Send a Team to Participate
If the video hadn’t been so smooth and seamless, without a single flaw,
no one would have believed this was the same bustling city that had just been ravaged by a bizarre Evil Spirit.
At that moment, all the citizens of the White Elephant Empire in the area had a strange feeling,
as if they had become inhabitants of the Immortal Realm.
Filled with curiosity and shock, a citizen of the White Elephant Empire slowly approached and reached out to touch the temple wall.
The wall was solid and sturdy, and the sensation was incredibly real. It was genuinely there.
Watching the video to this point, even Chu He fell silent.
He, for one, did not possess such an ability.
To create a massive, magnificent, and resplendent temple out of thin air, with no materials whatsoever—it was simply beyond Chu He’s understanding of power.
"Has anyone verified this video?" Chu He asked.
"Yes, and more than one group has.
Even the Lighthouse Empire sent people, and they did a live broadcast from the scene.
Now, the entire populace of the White Elephant Empire has gathered in Bird City, which they’re calling the Holy City.
The White Elephant Empire is no longer called the White Elephant Empire. It’s become the Great Western Heaven.
Every citizen is filled with pride and joy, believing they are servants of the Buddha of the Great Western Heaven.
What surprises me most is that, over the past few days, tens of thousands of monks have arrived at the Great Leiyin Temple in Bird City.
I have no idea where all these people were before, or what that ’Little Western Heaven’ place really is."
Liu Yuzhu continued, "And this time, the White Elephant Empire—oh, no, the Great Western Heaven—will also be sending a team to the Martial Arts Academy ranking competition hosted by the Lighthouse Empire on the Black Continent Grassland.
I wonder if this group of monks will blame us, the Great Xia Empire, for what happened to the old White Elephant Empire.
If they do, our participation in the competition on the Black Continent Grassland could get a little troublesome.
After all, we already have the Lighthouse Empire watching us like a hawk, not to mention their two lapdogs, the Great Jing Empire and the White-Red Empire."
"We’ll face whatever comes our way," Chu He said calmly.
As for Abbot Tonghua’s abilities, Chu He was truly intrigued. He was eager to find out more.
’How exactly did Abbot Tonghua do it?’
He built a massive temple from nothing in less than ten minutes.
It’s already been verified by multiple parties. People have even gone there to livestream and film videos, all of which prove that the temple is real.
Chu He was also aware that the former White Elephant Empire had always been obsessed with worshiping Brahma Heaven, Shiva, Vishnu, and other so-called Deities.
They certainly wouldn’t have helped Abbot Tonghua build such a massive and magnificent temple in advance.
Besides, the White Elephant Empire had been in chaos recently, so it couldn’t possibly have been built during that time either.
In less than half a day, this single monk had brought the entire native population of the White Elephant Empire to a point of complete psychological acceptance that their nation was now history, replaced by the new name: Great Western Heaven.
That’s not something that can be achieved through sheer force and decisiveness alone.
"The roster has been selected.
Get ready. We’re heading to the Black Continent Grassland.
The Martial Arts ranking competition should be starting right around the time we arrive."
"Understood. I’ll make the arrangements immediately.
This time, are Yumizakura, Nalan Fengshan, and Gao Liceng going with you?" Liu Yuzhu inquired.
"Just have Yumizakura come with me.
Yumizakura was originally from the White-Red Empire and suddenly joined our side.
I still can’t fully trust her, so it’s safer to keep her by my side.
As for Nalan Fengshan and Gao Liceng, you can arrange for them to take up teaching positions at the National Road Academy.
They’ll both need to undergo training beforehand.
You can be in charge of all that," Chu He said.
"Understood."
Liu Yuzhu nodded. "However, Xia Chengli asked me to tell you in advance that she wants to come along on the trip to the Black Continent Grassland. She said she’s been at the National Road Academy for too long and is getting a little bored."
"Then let Xia Chengli come along."
Chu He had a decent understanding of the young woman’s personality.
He knew it wasn’t realistic to keep her cooped up in the National Road Academy indefinitely.
Even if Xia Chengli had submitted to him or had her own agenda, her personality was like a free bird in the sky; she wouldn’t be able to hold herself back.
Plus, Xia Chengli carried secrets and had connections to other powerful figures and factions.
If he left her at the National Road Academy and those people lurking in the shadows were to show up,
it would likely cause a great deal of trouble for the Great Xia Empire and the National Road Academy.
Several days later, a large passenger jet set off for the Black Continent Grassland.
There had once been some small empires on the Black Continent Grassland, but they had all been annihilated in the sudden catastrophe.
The few survivors couldn’t change anything. However, the remaining infrastructure was still there.
The large jet broke through the clouds and landed smoothly.
Numerous private jets were parked at the airport.
As soon as they saw the Great Xia Empire’s emblem on the large jet, a swarm of reporters immediately closed in.
"I heard Chu He is personally leading the team this time."
"I really want to see Chu He in person. He’s the strongest man on Blue Star."
"The strongest man on Blue Star? I wouldn’t be so sure. From what I hear, a lot of hidden things on Blue Star are starting to stir."
"If you doubt he’s the strongest man, why don’t you go test him yourself? If you can beat him or take him out, you’ll prove your point."
"I’m curious if the White Elephant Empire, Lighthouse Empire, White-Red Empire, and Great Jing Empire will be able to sit at the same table as Chu He peacefully."
"You mean we’re in for some drama?"
"What do you mean, ’drama’? Don’t be so blunt. You make it sound like we’re all gloating."
Many people stood at a distance, watching the scene unfold.
Some even raised their phones, ready to film Chu He as he disembarked from the plane.
"So this is the Black Continent Grassland? It’s so hot!"
Xia Chengli followed behind Chu He, looking around with immense curiosity as she took in the unique scenery with great interest.
As the scorching sun beat down from the sky,
Xia Chengli shielded her eyes with one hand, then pulled a pair of sunglasses from her backpack and put them on. "Once we get to our place and drop our stuff off, I definitely want to explore the Black Continent Grassland.
This is my first time here, you know! I heard it’s changed dramatically compared to how it used to be."
"It would be best to be careful," Yumizakura warned.
