Chapter 571 Yingzhou (Part 1)
Jiang Li and Xie Changan then floated to the surface of the sea.
By this time, the sky was bright, the sun was rising, and the sea was calm. There was no trace of the doomsday scene before.
Jiang Li was very puzzled. Did the Mirror Spirit call it a day?
She raised her head to the sky, cupped her hands to her mouth and called out, "Lord Tiandao! Lord Jingling! Are you still there?"
The world was quiet and peaceful, with only the sound of waves crashing against the shore.
"Is the Soul-Catcher dead or not?"
"Did you retrieve the fragment?"
Jiang Li asked repeatedly.
It was quiet all around.
"Lord Tiandao?
"Lord Mirror Spirit?"
Jiang Li called for a long time, but Jing Ling ignored her.
Jiang Li said dissatisfiedly: "Master Jingling, have we completed the mission? Please tell us whether we have completed the mission or not!"
Jing Ling naturally didn't want to pay attention to her.
When you need something from him, you call him "Lord Heavenly Dao" or "Lord Mirror Spirit". When you have nothing to ask of him, you call him "Dog Mirror Spirit"!
Besides, how can the way of heaven appear just by your shouting?
Heaven is not a dog!
Bah, bah, bah, I was almost led astray by her "dog mirror spirit"!
The mirror spirit energy above the clouds snorted and ran away.
"Lord Tiandao—Lord Jingling—"
Jiang Li was still screaming at the top of her lungs.
Xie Changan held her back and said, "The Mirror Spirit must have gone back. As you said, the Samsara Mirror contains more than one small world. I guess he must be very busy."
Jiang Li was furious. "Is the Soul-Catching Bug dead or has it escaped? Is the mission a success or a failure? It should at least give us a clue, right?"
Xie Changan was also helpless, "As the saying goes, the secret of heaven cannot be revealed. We will know it when the time comes."
Anyway, they don't want to go back to the upper realm now.
Jiang Li agreed and decided to make the best of it. She would raise her four children well and live a good life first.
As for whether the soul-sucking insect is dead or not, you will know it when the time comes.
In short, if the enemy comes, we will fight him; if the water comes, we will fight him with earth. If the soul-sucking insect is not dead yet, when it comes back one day, we will kill it to pieces!
This trip was not in vain, at least Japan is in our hands!
Although Japan is poor, it has a good geographical location. Now that shipping in Da Chu is becoming more and more prosperous, it is an excellent transit point.
"Mingzhu, let's pack up."
Jiang Li no longer hesitated and sent a message to Mingzhu to withdraw the team, leaving only a few small teams to patrol the sea area in shifts. If there was any abnormal situation, they were to report immediately.
She asked Mingzhu and the dragon egg to stay in the Dragon Palace and wait for the Fujian Navy.
"When General Yuan arrives, have him lead the team directly to the island. There are still remnants of the Nine Lotus Sect, and we need him to send troops to eliminate them."
Mingzhu was quite surprised. Was it only necessary to wipe out the remnants of the Jiulian Sect? Wasn't it also necessary to conquer the Japanese Empire in one fell swoop?
Jiang Li chuckled and said, "I have already obtained the letter from Japan submitting to the Great Chu."
Mingzhu was filled with admiration: "The little fairy conquered an entire country without a single soldier. She truly is as powerful as a million soldiers!"
The dragon egg was also very proud: "There is nothing my sister can't do!"
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Without your support, I would be unable to carry on alone. Mingzhu deserves the greatest credit for this battle, followed by Dandan. I will report your contributions to His Majesty truthfully."
If it weren’t for the mermaid’s mermaid silk, the soul-sucking insect would have surely escaped again!
The dragon egg was very happy: "I want to be a general too!"
Jiang Li smiled and said, "No problem."
"The two of us will return to Kyoto City first to officially take over Japan."
They still have to go back and clean up the mess.
"Okay, there are still remnants of the Jiulian Sect on the island. Little fairy and general, please be careful." Mingzhu said.
After explaining everything, Jiang Li and the others rushed back to Kyoto City without stopping.
"Oh, I should have asked Brother Diao and his wife to come over earlier."
The two of them had perfected their body-building skills and their internal strength had reached perfection, but after running around all night, Jiang Li still felt a little tired mentally.
Xie Changan smiled and said, "Will your husband carry you on his back?"
Jiang Li sighed, "Forget it, let's finish the work as soon as possible and rest as soon as possible."
Kyoto Castle Palace.
The lightning and thunder that lasted all night frightened the people of Kyoto out of their wits. Everyone in the palace, from the emperor to the attendants, was in a panic.
The lightning strike started in the palace, then moved northward, sweeping across half of the capital, with flames shooting up into the sky everywhere.
At dawn, the fire was out, but the entire capital was in ruins.
People were in a constant state of panic, not knowing why God had sent down such punishment.
Is it because the emperor forcibly abducted women and lived a life of extravagance and debauchery, and Amaterasu finally couldn't stand it anymore?
The people were outraged and flocked to the palace, demanding an explanation from the emperor.
The emperor experienced more in this night than in half his entire life, and at this moment he was still distracted, as if in a dream.
When the attendants reported that the people had surrounded the palace and even the ministers could not enter the palace, the emperor asked how to deal with it?
The Emperor was silent for a long moment. "Close the palace gates tightly. Don't pay any attention to it."
The attendant was startled and asked cautiously: "What about the gentlemen?"
The Emperor said impatiently: "Let them wait outside!"
The attendant was stunned, "Yes."
He hurried forward to convey the order.
The emperor sat in the palace in a daze, he didn't know what to do.
I wonder if the two princes of Da Chu can destroy the monster?
What should he do if the monster doesn't die and comes back to seek revenge?
If that monster dies, then the letter of credence he signed last night will take effect, and Japan will no longer be a country!
The emperor didn't know whether he should summon all his ministers and announce it to the world.
He smiled bitterly. Now he could only wait, wait for death, or wait for abdication.
The palace was also in chaos, and the emperor had no choice but to order everyone to return to their palaces, close the doors, and wait for his orders.
At noon, he finally arrived.
There was a whistling sound in the wind, and the emperor's eyes blurred. The two men in black from last night rushed in from the window and stood in front of him.
It was the two princes of Da Chu!
The Emperor asked in a trembling voice, "That monster..."
Jiang Li smiled faintly: "That monster was doing evil and committing many evil things. The heavens sent down thunder and lightning, and the monster was reduced to ashes under the lightning."
The Emperor was surprised and delighted: "Really?"
Jiang Li said seriously: "Unless he has the ability to bring the dead back to life."
The Emperor took a deep breath, straightened his clothes and hat, and bowed respectfully: "The Kingdom of Dongying sincerely submits to the Great Chu. I hope that the two princes will report to the Emperor of the Great Chu and ensure that the people of Dongying are treated well."
Jiang Li and the other two also bowed in return, "We will definitely live up to your trust."
So the emperor ordered his attendants to open the palace gates and let the ministers in.
The next day, the emperor officially issued an edict announcing his abdication. From that day on, the Kingdom of Toyo was incorporated into the Great Chu and became part of the Great Chu Dynasty.
From now on, the people of Japan are the people of the Great Chu!
When the edict was issued, the whole country was in an uproar and the people were shocked.
Why did Japan become part of the Great Chu for no reason?
Didn’t you see the Great Chu coming to invade?
The enemy hasn't even attacked yet, and our emperor has already given away the entire country?
Some were filled with righteous indignation: "This is selling out one's country for personal gain! The Japanese will become slaves of the Great Chu!"
There were also some who were happy: "I heard that the Emperor of Great Chu loves his people like his own children and will treat the naturalized people equally!"
"Yes, I heard from those Nanyang merchants that the southern border, which was the first to submit to the Great Chu, is now extremely prosperous!"
There were many different opinions, and when people were in panic, the Chu navy landed.
