Chapter 151: Establishing the Great Ming
A short while later, as Zhu Yuanzhang was receiving the Mongol-Yuan army outside the city, Lu Xueqi’s divine sense continued to monitor the situation within Yuan Dadu.
Inside Yuan Dadu, Zhang Sanfeng, Xiong Ba, and the others charged straight into the imperial palace, carrying out corresponding executions of the palace guards and important Mongol officials.
Within the Mongol capital, although there were many martial artists and experts in martial arts, in the face of the overwhelming strength of Xiong Ba, Zhang Sanfeng, and the others, these experts had virtually no ability to resist.
Even the Prince of Ruyang personally led troops to suppress Zhang Sanfeng and the others, only to be killed on the spot by a single palm strike from Zhang Sanfeng.
As numerous martial arts experts fell within Yuan Dadu, the Yuan capital could no longer organize any semblance of effective defense.
Under such circumstances, Zhang Sanfeng’s figure flashed, and he directly captured the Yuan Emperor, who was seated upon the dragon throne.
Afterward, Xiong Ba and the others swiftly relied on their formidable force to take control of the imperial palace.
Seeing all of this, Lu Xueqi could not help but nod slightly. She then transmitted her voice to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying: “True Man Zhang and the others have already controlled the imperial palace. You may now enter the palace directly.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed at this moment. He had not expected matters to proceed so smoothly.
The tens of thousands of troops they had brought had barely been mobilized before Yuan Dadu was taken.
Their role had essentially been limited to receiving prisoners and waiting silently at the rear.
Now, upon hearing Lu Xueqi’s voice transmission, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer hesitated. He immediately ordered the many experts of the Ming Cult, the main army, and the newly accepted Yuan forces to advance into the capital.
The city gates were also opened proactively before they even arrived.
Thus, Yuan Dadu was smoothly taken over by Zhu Yuanzhang and the others.
With Zhu Yuanzhang’s conquest of Yuan Dadu, it likewise declared the formal destruction of the Yuan Dynasty and the official establishment of a Han Chinese court.
After recovering Yuan Dadu and absorbing the various troops of the former Yuan capital, Zhu Yuanzhang had already become the most powerful force in this world.
Although many rebel kings emerged after the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, they were all directly wiped out by Zhu Yuanzhang and the experts of the Ming Cult.
After destroying the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang also successfully established the Great Ming.
This outcome left Lu Yu, Xiao Yan, and the others—who were particularly fond of grand and decisive achievements—extremely satisfied.
Subsequently, after pondering for a while, Lu Yu gave Zhu Yuanzhang a world map, a comprehensive general history, and an encyclopedia that recorded most inventions and creations from the Ming Dynasty through later generations.
After establishing the Great Ming, at the request of Zhang Sanfeng, Lu Yu, and the others, Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Ma Xiuying as Empress, known in history as Empress Ma.
After achieving success and retiring from the world, Zhang Sanfeng did not cling to power, but directly departed from Yuan Dadu.
Out of gratitude toward the Wudang Sect, Zhu Yuanzhang established the Wudang Sect as the state religion and conferred upon Zhang Sanfeng the title of State Preceptor.
Zhang Sanfeng accepted this calmly.
After handling the affairs of the Ming Dynasty, Lu Xueqi and Xiong Ba returned to Wudang Mountain and directly used a chat group Teleportation Talisman to return to their own world.
Just after returning to her world, Lu Xueqi looked at the slightly darkened sky outside and could not help but let out a sigh.
This time, when she had originally entered Zhang Sanfeng’s world, aside from offering birthday congratulations to Zhang Sanfeng, she had only wanted to rest for a while.
Yet she had not expected that in that world, she would be constantly rushing about, spending a great deal of time, and feeling even more exhausted than she did in the Qingyun World.
Nevertheless, regarding the Great Ming that they had jointly established, Lu Xueqi still felt extremely happy deep in her heart.
As a Han Chinese, when one had the ability, it was only natural not to watch Han people continue to live under Mongol rule as subjugated remnants of a fallen nation.
Upon returning to the Qingyun World, Lu Xueqi felt slightly mentally fatigued. She then found a relatively open mountain cave, set up formations, and directly lay down to sleep.
She slept until noon the next day before quietly awakening.
After glancing at the sky outside, she slightly calculated the time.
From entering Zhang Sanfeng’s world to celebrate his birthday, eliminate Wang Baobao, and overthrow Yuan rule, it had unexpectedly taken three days.
This made Lu Xueqi feel a little anxious—could it be that things over at Flowing Wave Mountain had already ended?
After thinking this over, Lu Xueqi’s figure flashed as she hurried toward the direction of Flowing Wave Mountain.
At this moment, over at Flowing Wave Mountain, both the righteous and demonic paths had gathered, and the operation to capture Kui Niu, led by the Ghost King Sect, was proceeding quietly.
This time, the Ghost King personally took action, leading the two great protectors of the Ghost King Sect along with many demonic sect experts to Flowing Wave Mountain, all for the sake of capturing Kui Niu and then releasing the Asura sealed within the Fulong Cauldron.
An existence possessing the power to contend with the Zhuxian Sword of the Qingyun Sect.
On the righteous side, Tian Buyi also led many righteous experts to Flowing Wave Mountain to stop the demonic sect’s conspiracy.
However, at this moment, they still did not know that the demonic sect’s primary objective was to capture Kui Niu.
At this time, Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan had already arrived at Flowing Wave Mountain.
Regarding the previous trip to Kong Sang Mountain—where Qi Hao had been slain by the Black Water Mystic Serpent and Lu Xueqi had disappeared—both Cang Song and Tian Buyi were extremely shocked.
One had to know that these two were the most peerless geniuses among the younger generation of the Qingyun Sect.
Their disappearance was an enormous and unbearable loss for the Qingyun Sect.
After learning of this, Tian Buyi and Cang Song immediately wrote letters to inform Daoxuan of the Qingyun Sect.
Qi Hao’s death was now confirmed, while Lu Xueqi’s death had not yet been confirmed, but with no news at all, it was equally worthy of serious concern.
Within the Longshou Peak group, Lin Jingyu and Cang Song were currently alone in a bamboo house.
With his hands clasped behind his back, Cang Song stood inside the room, gazing into the distant scenery, his expression tinged with faint sorrow.
Qi Hao was an unparalleled genius he had cultivated for over a hundred years, and there existed deep feelings between them.
Even though in recent times he had noticed Qi Hao’s temperament undergo drastic changes, years of emotional bonds were still difficult to sever all at once.
Now, learning of Qi Hao’s sacrifice from Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan made Cang Song’s heart ache even more.
At this moment, Lin Jingyu looked somewhat nervously at Cang Song’s back.
He knew very well why his master had summoned him—certainly to question him about Qi Hao, and perhaps even suspect that Qi Hao’s death was related to him.
This inevitably made Lin Jingyu feel slightly uneasy.
After gazing at the scenery outside for a while, Cang Song finally broke the silence and spoke: “Lin Jingyu, does your senior brother’s death have anything to do with you?”
