Chapter 191 Eliminating the Great Families

Jingjing not only collected the personal information of everyone but also gathered evidence of their wrongdoings.

Of course, eliminating these individuals directly would have been simpler.

However, Zheng Dong needed to consider the future management of the major base cities and felt it was necessary to purge these people from a moral high ground.

By leaving no room for criticism from others, he could ensure more people would abide by Yanhuang's laws.

Meanwhile, Ming Chuanshuo also set her sights on Rongcheng.

As far as she knew, Zheng Dong had gone to the Hanba Totem Kingdom and never returned.

He had likely perished in the Hanba Totem Kingdom.

Currently, the major base cities under her control were experiencing constant conflict, primarily due to insufficient distribution of benefits.

If she could capture Rongcheng and expand the pie, then every family would receive adequate benefits, leading to universal satisfaction.

She aimed to divert internal conflicts and gain the support of many families.

Therefore, she spared no effort in appeasing the divine-level Yaksha stationed in the Imperial Capital, hoping for its assistance in eliminating Rongcheng, this thorn in her side.

This divine-level Yaksha, swayed by Ming Chuanshuo's smooth talk, decided to act.

After all, dealing with Rongcheng was as easy as lifting a finger for it.

Rongcheng outwardly possessed no legend-level beast tamers, no divine-interdiction missiles, nor any combat-capable divine-level power. Not even quasi-divine level pet beasts could be found.

Subsequently, Ming Chuanshuo mobilized her beast-taming legions and headed towards Rongcheng with the divine-level Yaksha.

Ming Chuanshuo had not received any news of Zheng Dong's return to Rongcheng.

Zheng Dong had not made a public appearance.

Furthermore, Jingjing, disguised as an interstellar battleship, possessed stealth capabilities, making it undetectable by satellites or radar.

Additionally, Jingjing had infiltrated the network systems of the Imperial Capital and other base cities, allowing her to block any information related to Zheng Dong at any time.

This meant that even if someone managed to transmit information from Rongcheng, it would be difficult for it to reach Ming Chuanshuo.

Moreover, only Xiao Lin, Feng Nan, and others were aware of Zheng Dong's return.

This was why Ming Chuanshuo was so arrogant.

While mobilizing her beast-taming legions towards the Rongcheng base city, she also issued an ultimatum to Xiao Lin, ordering his surrender.

Upon learning that Ming Chuanshuo intended to attack Rongcheng, Xiao Lin was so excited that he couldn't stop grinning.

"That old hag, has she gone mad to come here and die!" Xiao Lin chuckled.

Long Zhen Chuanshuo nodded in agreement.

"Ming Chuanshuo is extremely obsessed with power. With the support of the Yaksha Totem Kingdom behind her, she believes no one in Yanhuang can control her, and thus she can do as she pleases," Long Zhen Chuanshuo stated.

Zheng Dong remained calm.

Dealing with Ming Chuanshuo was not difficult. The reason he hadn't acted was that he was waiting for the opportune moment.

Now that all the influential families had revealed themselves and Long Zhen Chuanshuo had become familiar with the situation, by eliminating Ming Chuanshuo and revealing the truth to the common people, he could control Yanhuang and naturally become its guardian deity.

While this might seem selfish, it was the best outcome for both Yanhuang and himself.

As for the Yaksha Totem Kingdom behind Ming Chuanshuo.

Once he gained control of Yanhuang, he would undoubtedly deal with them.

At that time, not only the Yaksha Totem Kingdom but also the Ice Plains Snowmen and the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor would be eliminated.

He needed to rebuild Yanhuang, allowing people to live normal lives again, rather than confined to base cities.

Before long, the beast-taming legions mobilized by Ming Chuanshuo arrived outside Rongcheng.

A dense array of various war vehicles and aircraft had surrounded Rongcheng.

Ming Chuanshuo and the divine-level Yaksha sat in a massive command vehicle, clearly observing the defensive situation around the Rongcheng base city on a large screen.

Immediately, Ming Chuanshuo issued the order to attack.

Just then, Long Zhen Chuanshuo's figure suddenly appeared on the screen in front of her.

Jingjing had infiltrated Ming Chuanshuo's command system, allowing Long Zhen Chuanshuo's commands to be transmitted to every beast tamer in the beast-taming legions.

"Hello everyone, I am Long Zhen. I am not dead yet. Are you scoundrels in such a hurry to rebel?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, many beast-taming legion commanders wept.

The beast-taming legions guarding the Imperial Capital base city were very familiar with Long Zhen Chuanshuo.

From top to bottom, they had never disobeyed any of Long Zhen Chuanshuo's orders.

Many of these commanders had even received personal guidance from Long Zhen Chuanshuo.

Hearing the familiar voice, Ming Chuanshuo shivered and panicked.

No, it's impossible! How could he possibly be awake?

Ming Chuanshuo had already understood Long Zhen Chuanshuo's injuries. Unless a divine-level extraordinary being used a healing skill, Long Zhen Chuanshuo would not be able to awaken.

She did not know that Ling'er, in Zheng Dong's possession, had already condensed a divine spark.

Fortunately, she still had the divine-level Yaksha by her side, and the Yaksha Totem Kingdom behind her. Ming Chuanshuo quickly calmed down and returned to normal.

She ordered the beast-taming legions to launch an attack.

Unfortunately, the command system did not broadcast her order.

The commanders and beast tamers below were still listening to Long Zhen Chuanshuo's lecture.

Seeing this, the divine-level Yaksha also sensed that something was amiss.

"Ming Chuanshuo, you truly disappoint me. You still haven't completely controlled Yanhuang!"

Ming Chuanshuo's expression changed drastically, and she quickly explained:

"My lord, rest assured. As long as Rongcheng is dealt with and Long Zhen Chuanshuo and his ilk are eliminated, Yanhuang will be completely under my control, forever a vassal of the Totem Kingdom, and will never have any ulterior motives!"

The divine-level Yaksha let out a noncommittal snort.

It knew that without its intervention, Ming Chuanshuo would not be able to resolve these troubles.

The Underworld Yaksha Emperor had sent it to resolve matters and allow the Yaksha Totem Kingdom to better control Yanhuang.

Thus, it stepped out of the command vehicle and walked towards Rongcheng.

With each step, its body grew larger, and soon it transformed into a colossal Yaksha with a ferocious appearance.

Without further ado, it swung its fist and smashed it towards the defensive wall outside the Rongcheng base city.

As the massive fist descended, like a great mountain poised to shatter the defensive wall.

A beast tamer also appeared before the divine-level Yaksha.

The divine-level Yaksha's fist landed on the beast tamer's head but could not descend further, being firmly blocked by a shield.

The divine-level Yaksha was repelled by its own force, and it looked at the beast tamer in surprise.

"Are you Zheng Dong?"

Zheng Dong ignored the divine-level Yaksha and retaliated with a punch.

This Yaksha had only condensed a divine spark and had not yet formed a divine body, making it no match for him.

As his fist descended, the divine-level Yaksha felt a terrifying power surge, as if a terrestrial titan had unleashed a world-destroying punch.

The divine-level Yaksha immediately panicked.

It quickly retreated and shouted loudly:

"You can't kill me, I am the younger brother of the Underworld Yaksha Emperor!"

However, it was useless. Zheng Dong's punch seemed to spare no mercy.

He activated his divine spark and bloodline divine body, manipulated the laws of the earth, and unleashed terrifying power, severely wounding the divine-level Yaksha with a single blow.

The Yaksha struggled, got up, and quickly fled into the distance.

What commands from the Underworld Yaksha Emperor, what Yanhuang, nothing was as important as survival.

Unfortunately, its escape speed was still too slow.

Zheng Dong used spatial teleportation to block its path directly and politely delivered another punch.

After several exchanges, this divine-level Yaksha collapsed on the ground, unable to get up again.

Only then did Zheng Dong step forward and finish it off.

After dealing with the divine-level Yaksha, Zheng Dong looked at the command vehicle where Ming Chuanshuo was located.

Ming Chuanshuo trembled all over in fear.

From within the command vehicle, she had clearly witnessed the fate of the divine-level Yaksha.

If even the divine-level Yaksha had no power to fight back against Zheng Dong, she would likely be even less of a match.

Thus, she cautiously stepped out of the command vehicle, her legs giving way, and knelt on the ground.

"I was wrong! Please spare my life for my past contributions to Yanhuang..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zheng Dong unleashed a punch.

Ming Chuanshuo might have had some achievements in the past, but those achievements were insignificant compared to the transgressions she had committed.

Zheng Dong's punch did not kill Ming Chuanshuo but crippled her beast-taming space, rendering her a cripple.

All of Ming Chuanshuo's pets were also killed by Zheng Dong.

Leaving Ming Chuanshuo alive was intended for a public trial.

At that time, all those associated with Ming Chuanshuo would be dealt with together.

Instantly, Ming Chuanshuo slumped to the ground, appearing decades older.

Her once smooth and rosy skin became withered and covered in wrinkles.

Upon seeing her aged appearance, Ming Chuanshuo let out a piercing scream, her eyes filled with terror; this was more unbearable to her than death.

After eliminating Ming Chuanshuo and the divine-level Yaksha.

The beast-taming legions, under Long Zhen Chuanshuo's reprimand, laid down their weapons.

Subsequently, Zheng Dong proceeded to the Imperial Capital base city and swiftly took control of the Elder Council, assuming leadership of Yanhuang.

With the support of Long Zhen Chuanshuo, the influential families were severely punished according to Yanhuang's laws.

Ming Chuanshuo and others were executed.

Long Zhen Chuanshuo once again became the Grand Elder of Yanhuang.

Zheng Dong, while not responsible for the day-to-day affairs, held an unparalleled position, regarded as the guardian deity of Yanhuang.

Of course, many people were still unfamiliar with Zheng Dong and could not accept his status.

However, as their living environment improved and they were no longer forced to work like slaves, they began to realize the changes in Yanhuang.

Through the continuous propaganda by Long Zhen Chuanshuo and Xiao Lin, they also learned about the actions of Ming Chuanshuo and others.

It was then that they recognized Zheng Dong's power, having single-handedly turned the tide for Yanhuang.

Consequently, the number of people who admired and revered Zheng Dong grew.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Long Zhen Chuanshuo decided to establish temples for Zheng Dong to help him gain faith power.

Long Zhen Chuanshuo was pragmatic and understood the importance of deification.

Given the current development of the world, Yanhuang should also have its own god.

As long as Zheng Dong became a god, Yanhuang would produce more myth-level beast tamers, and Yanhuang's status would soar, making it fearless of threats from other totem kingdoms.

Of course, these troublesome matters were handled by Long Zhen Chuanshuo and Xiao Lin.

Zheng Dong, after the execution of Ming Chuanshuo and others, prepared to head to the Yaksha Totem Kingdom.

Rather than waiting for the Underworld Yaksha Emperor to attack, it was better to confront him directly.

On the land of the Yaksha Totem Kingdom, Zheng Dong could act without restraint, without worrying about accidentally harming ordinary people.

Even if the Yaksha Totem Kingdom was destroyed, it wouldn't matter.

The Yaksha Totem Kingdom was considerably smaller than the Hanba Totem Kingdom.

However, the number of Yakshas far exceeded that of the Yanhuang Hanba.

The Underworld Yaksha Emperor resided in Yilang City within the Yaksha Totem Kingdom.

Zheng Dong piloted the interstellar battleship and soon arrived above Yilang City.

Yilang City appeared prosperous, similar to Yanhuang's former Imperial Capital.

However, Zheng Dong did not appreciate the architectural style here; it was unconventional and differed from normal aesthetics.

But to the Yakshas, it was perfectly normal.

On the crisscrossing streets, Yakshas with peculiar attire could be seen everywhere.

Zheng Dong had no interest in ordinary Yakshas.

He was here to find the Underworld Yaksha Emperor and other divine-level Yakshas.

The Underworld Yaksha Emperor was protected by Yaksha guards in the palace.

If Zheng Dong wanted to approach, he would inevitably alert the Yaksha clan's guards.

The leader of the guards was a divine-level Yaksha, considerably stronger than the one stationed in the Imperial Capital base city.

In addition to this, there were three other divine-level Yakshas hidden within the palace.

This was merely the power surrounding the Underworld Yaksha Emperor.

The Yaksha Totem Kingdom possessed more divine-level Yakshas than what was apparent.

There were a total of nine Yakshas who had just condensed divine sparks, and five who were constructing divine bodies, with the potential to become intermediate gods.

Among them, two, like the Underworld Yaksha Emperor, were on the verge of becoming intermediate gods.

Furthermore, the Underworld Yaksha Emperor possessed two divine-level puppets.

It could be said that the strength of the Yaksha Totem Kingdom was considerable, not inferior to the Hanba Totem Kingdom.

However, Zheng Dong was not weak either.

He arrived above Yilang City and, without hesitation, headed straight for the palace.

The Yaksha guards under the Underworld Yaksha Emperor were the first to detect Zheng Dong and launched attacks.

Yakshas who could join the guards were at least of totem level in growth and were loyal, willing to sacrifice themselves for the Underworld Yaksha Emperor.

These Yaksha guards unleashed a battle formation, the Dark Night Storm.

Countless black whirlwinds converged, forming a terrifying storm that swept towards Zheng Dong.

Zheng Dong did not evade.

On his left hand, a colossal Elemental World Tree rapidly emerged.

The dense foliage of the Elemental World Tree rustled, opening elemental dimensional seas, from which countless elemental spirits poured out.

The weakest of these elemental spirits were at the Overlord level, while the two strongest, the Light and Dark elemental spirits, had already condensed divine sparks.

Facing the terrifying storm, these elemental spirits did not dodge. Like dense locusts, they tore the storm apart.

Then, they surged into the Yaksha guards, causing these Yakshas to fall forever.

With Ling'er present, Zheng Dong seemed fearless of being outnumbered.

Moreover, within Youyou's Underworld Hell, many corpses of divine-level extraordinary beings were sealed.

These corpses could be converted into divine-level undead at any time for combat.

Having the elemental spirits deal with the Yaksha guards, Zheng Dong proceeded directly to the palace to find the Underworld Yaksha Emperor.

The Underworld Yaksha Emperor was drinking wine in his chambers.

His younger brother was dead, and his mother had scolded him again.

Although he was powerful and outstanding, his mother did not dote on him and rarely showed concern.

Instead, she cared a great deal for her useless younger son.

He picked up the wine bottle and gulped down the contents.

He also heard the commotion outside.

However, he paid it no mind.

He believed the guards would handle everything.

Even if the guards couldn't resolve it, there were still three Yaksha divine guards within the palace who had condensed divine sparks.

Therefore, he picked up the wine bottle again and drank heavily.

Zheng Dong searched for the Underworld Yaksha Emperor.

He was not in a hurry; the Underworld Yaksha Emperor would not abandon the Yaksha Totem Kingdom and flee alone.

Soon, he drew closer to the Underworld Yaksha Emperor's chambers.

The divine guards under the Underworld Yaksha Emperor also appeared, namely the three Yakshas who had condensed divine sparks.
