Ancestor Above - Chapter 459



459 The Qin-Shu Alliance

After returning to Yuyan mountain, Lu Qing began to understand what changes had happened to the world in the past 15 years.

Without a doubt, it was a world of great struggle.

First, there was the Qin country’s disturbance in the West and they showed a strong desire to expand. They had even put it into action. Under the strong pressure of the Qin country, the Jin and Liang countries were somewhat breathless.

However, before the Qin State could really produce any results, the Yan state had already made the first move in the past 20 to 30 years.

First, the Emperor of Da Qi was changed to the Lu family. The war between the Wu and Wei States 15 years ago had also made these two celestial States part of the Yan state.

This could be called ‘swallowing like a whale’.

In total, almost the entire East of the cultivation world had been incorporated into the Lu clan’s rule.

In the beginning, the Yan Kingdom’s rule over the Wu and Wei kingdoms was indeed full of difficulties. However, after 15 years of governance, the entire situation had taken a great turn for the better.

Among them, the biggest change happened in the Wu country, which was previously in ruins.

In the beginning, great Wu’s situation had been terrible, but now, it had changed the most, and it could even be said that people were living and working in peace.

The main reason for this was that the method of destruction and reconstruction would definitely be faster than sewing and mending. Although the destruction of the war earlier had made Wu country’s situation very bad. However, as the Yan and Qi Alliance’s cultivator Army swept through the resistance forces in all parts of the Wu State, and the administrative team sent directly by the Yan state quickly established the local government, everything was drawn on white paper, and it was smoother.

In addition, the influence of external forces on Wu country was gradually approaching non-existent.

Wu state’s main border countries were only Wei and Chu. The Wei State was already the Yan state’s. As for the Chu State, the military failure that they suffered 15 years ago was still very serious. After losing the war, they still had to face the pressure from the Qin State in the West, so they naturally became much more obedient.

In this way, the internal opposition forces would be eliminated, and the external world would be relatively peaceful. The difficulty of management would naturally be reduced.

Compared to the Wu Kingdom, which was almost rebuilt, the situation in the Wei Kingdom might be worse. The main reason was that the Wei Kingdom had surrendered, and the Lu family had made a political promise to the entire class of vested interests in the Wei Kingdom. They would keep their interests as long as they supported the Yan Kingdom.

They were honest, but in general, they would not be as useful as the administrative organization directly sent by Yan Kingdom.

However, this so-called ‘bad’ was actually not that bad. At the very least, Lu Qing could clearly see in his system interface that the Wei Kingdom had become a territory that the system could recognize and that the Lu clan could manage directly.

As for the Qi state, its situation had also improved a lot.

In fact, the biggest historical problem was the Qi Kingdom.

Lu Chaohe’s ascension to the throne of the Qi state was a very difficult thing to do. Lu Qing had taken advantage of the lack of Dharma adepts in the Qi state. After solving the problem in Dongyang City, Lu Qing had used his own powerful pressure, coupled with some divine ghost techniques and soul-controlling techniques to forcibly help Lu Chaohe ascend to the throne.

After that, Lu Chaohe was able to sit firmly on the throne all because of Weiyun and the Army that the kingdom of yan had placed on the border between the two countries. The government of Qi state still existed, and it was controlled by the aristocratic families of Qi state. The more detailed the affairs of many countries were, the more difficult it was for Lu Chaohe, the Emperor, to control them.

However, 15 years ago, there had been a Great Purge within the Qi Army, which had brought about many different changes.

A large number of oppositions and troublemakers were eliminated. At the same time, Lu Chaohe’s authority as the Emperor was also greatly established. Under such circumstances, he, or rather, the Lu clan, would have a much greater control over the Qi Kingdom.

All in all, in the past 15 years, the Lu family’s control over the other three newly-occupied countries had greatly increased.

In this way, the various exchange options could be put to use. At the same time, the time fragments in the Wei Kingdom were also included in the scope of processing.

In reality, Lu Qing had not put all his effort into his cultivation over the years. Occasionally, he would also accept a batch of applications to enter the time fragment at a fixed time on the system interface.

Most of these came from the Yan Kingdom, followed by the Qi Kingdom, and a small portion came from the Wei, Wu, and other Three Kingdoms.

Hence, in the past 15 years, many three-star and four-star time fragments in the Yan Kingdom had been cleared. It had already been 15 years, but the time of the gods ‘invasion had been delayed by more than three years. There was still a countdown of about 35 years.

In short, Lu Qing was generally satisfied with the goals of his clan and country after he came out.

However, the situation overseas did not seem to be so good.

Logically speaking, the Yan Kingdom’s rise in the eastern world should have attracted a lot of attention, and even a backlash.

No one hoped that a giant like the Lu Corporation would appear around them.

In the world of cultivators, the nine great celestial nations had all merged into one. Under the rule of the Lu clan, the pressure on the surrounding countries was too great.

Under normal circumstances, or in the recorded history of the cultivation world, it was not as if there had not been a celestial nation that had been very powerful for a period of time. Then, it had a strong desire to expand and had even done many things. However, this kind of highly vigilant action would often lead to hostility from other countries, and even joint interference.

According to historical experience, when the Lu family invaded the Wei and Wu, the Jin and Liang countries would work together with the Chu country to prevent the Lu family from becoming more powerful.

The reason why they didn’t do so wasn’t because they didn’t want to, but because they couldn’t.

Jin and Liang were also under great pressure. This pressure came from the Qin country in the West.

The state of Qin could originally be considered the most powerful out of the nine great immortal countries. On the surface, there were already five Dharma experts, let alone in the dark. In any case, people usually thought that the state of Qin definitely had more than five Dharma experts.

They themselves were a Colossus.

In the past, Jin, Liang, Chu, and Shu had always worked together to suppress the state of Qin. This was especially so in the last few decades, as great Qin’s pressure on the neighboring countries became greater and greater, and the two enemies, Jin, Liang, no longer treated each other as enemies. Instead, they had worked together.

However, even so, they could not stop great Qin from slowly devouring them.

And four years ago, a very important event happened:

The Qin and Shu countries announced that they had formed an alliance.
