Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 517 - 513: Great Xia Divine Domain

The soldiers below fell silent instantly, and everyone’s eyes were focused on Xia Feng.

He wore a relaxed and encouraging smile on his face: "Great Xia is my home, the place that birthed and nurtured me. No matter how far I wander, I will always return here."

"And this time, I bring new good news."

The soldiers below had brightened eyes; they had previously heard that many soldiers joined a special training, their realms elevated by Xia Feng, the War God.

Is the new good news that they, too, will be able to raise their realms?

Xia Feng looked down at these people, thought for a moment, and then spoke: "Recently, during your cultivation, have you felt anything special?"

The people below were silent at first, then began to talk all at once about all the strange things happening lately.

Most of it revolved around how cultivation was going much more smoothly than before and progress much faster.

Xia Feng curved his lips slightly, and said: "Everyone should have heard about the Upper Realm, how people from Great Xia, after reaching the Demigod stage, must ascend to the Upper Realm to continue their breakthroughs."

"This is because the Celestial Essence Continent lacks the most crucial Divine Power, which cannot sustain rapid cultivation of those from the Lower Realm."

He paused: "When I went to the Divine Domain this time, I saw that children with good talent were born with the Martial Sovereign Realm, and could achieve the Martial God stage upon reaching adulthood, precisely because the Divine Domain is full of unlimited Divine Power."

The soldiers below were just about to discuss when Xia Feng lightly coughed, silencing everyone.

"Recently, I benefited in the Divine Domain, so I plan to adjust the current situation of the Celestial Essence Continent."

Some clever soldiers were already making connections, their eyes growing even brighter.

"Lord Xia Feng, are you saying..."

Xia Feng’s smile expanded: "You’re right, I brought back nine Top Grade Divine Marrow, and in the days to come, our Celestial Essence Continent will become even more endowed with Divine Power than the Divine Domain."

The soldiers below cheered, their previous fatigue seemed to be instantly cast aside, leaving only a thrill they wanted to release.

Xia Feng gestured for them to quiet down.

"Now that the entire Celestial Essence Continent’s four landmasses have been conquered by Great Xia, continuing to call it Celestial Essence Continent seems a bit awkward."

"Today, I shall rename the Celestial Essence Continent to Great Xia Divine Domain and the Great Xia Imperial Capital to Great Xia Divine Capital."

"All of you will become members of the Great Xia Divine Domain, stepping onto the true path to Godhood!"

The soldiers below erupted instantly; this announcement spread throughout the Great Xia Divine Capital like wildfire, and the crowd spontaneously began to cheer and shout, all chanting Xia Feng’s or Great Xia’s name.

Beside him, Xia Naiwen sighed: "You are actually more suited to this position than me."

Xia Feng was startled, quickly speaking: "Father, please spare me. You know, I barely have enough time for cultivation, let alone to govern a continent."

Xia Naiwen meant to persuade a few more words, but Xia Feng hastily grabbed Li Qingxue and teleported away.

Xia Naiwen paused, then turned to Xia Tianming beside him, hesitatingly said: "Father, perhaps..."

Xia Tianming quickly understood what Xia Naiwen hadn’t finished saying, and quickly spoke: "I’m old, I need to retire. I just fought a battle, I’m tired, I’m heading back now."

A rapid string of words left no chance for Xia Naiwen to finish speaking, as he swiftly tore open a spatial crack and left.

Leaving Xia Naiwen standing on the city wall, looking helpless.

However, he just shrugged it off. Xia Naiwen was self-aware enough that his cultivation talent wasn’t as strong as his son’s or father’s. Rather than retreat to cultivate, it was more suitable for him to handle the Empire’s mundane affairs.

After all, whether Xia Tianming or Xia Feng became the Emperor, it would delay their cultivation time, which would be counterproductive.

Once Xia Naiwen settled the excited soldiers, he too returned to the Divine Capital as fast as he could.

Huang Xiaoqian was happily chatting with Li Qingxue.

Even though not all ten brides came back together, having one recognized was already good news. She believed her son would eventually bring back the other wives.

Former Emperors of Xia, full of excitement, surrounded Xia Feng and Xia Tianming, asking questions.

The memories from their elevation in the Dream Realm Pearl hadn’t been erased, just slightly embellished so these ancestors believed they entered a special space within the Divine Emperor Secret Realm.

Seeing Xia Feng’s return, they had many cultivation-related questions to ask him.

After all, their cultivation levels now seemed pushed up by Divine Power; their actual combat level was uncertain.

Xia Feng thought for a moment, and took out several Storage Rings.

These contained treasures he had scavenged from the Dongfang Clan and plucked from the dead hands of various clans’ geniuses.

They had been screened by him once, posing no major issues.

Without hesitation, he handed these items to the former Emperors of Xia: "There should be many useful things inside; you’ll need to sift through them."

"Let the ancestors select from them. Whatever’s useless can be stored in the Great Xia Treasure Vault."

"Later, I’ll set up an array to protect the treasure vault."

Hearing this, the former Emperors of Xia were visibly excited, and without further ado with Xia Feng, they all went off to organize the rings.

Finally, only Xia Naiwen and his wife stayed behind, proudly looking at their son.

Xia Naiwen’s eyes glimmering slightly: "Earlier, when Qingxue and Father fought, they were so strong. Is Feng now stronger than them?"

Xia Feng paused, seemingly unsure how to describe his current state.

He furrowed his brows, his expression troubled, and Xia Naiwen, seeing his son’s expression, felt a pang in his heart.

The foundation of Great Xia Divine Domain was Xia Feng; no matter how powerful others became, it wouldn’t matter. They didn’t have Xia Feng’s charisma and influence.

He worriedly took a step forward: "Is there some other issue?"

Xia Feng blinked, then smiled: "It’s nothing major."

"It was only after entering the Holy Sword Secret Realm and gaining the Divine Emperor’s inheritance did I discover the issue."

He waved it off, clearly wishing not to dwell on the problem.

Just a small issue, one he recently noticed.

Now, Xia Feng’s cultivation in the Great Dao of Celestial Sword had reached the Ninth Grade True God stage, but his comprehension of other Great Dao remained weak, needing more time to restore balance.

If not for Xia Feng’s cultivation of the Nameless Divine Technique and Infinite Divine Technique, the imbalance between the Great Dao in his body might have already caused internal conflict.
