He knew that Jiang Ming's journey would undoubtedly be successful. Moreover, he believed that Jiang Ming was weak and could not pose a threat to him in the near future. There was nothing to worry about.
When Jiang Ming and his group arrived at the border between the two empires, within the Vast Empire, they immediately requested to meet with the commander-in-chief of the Vast Empire, Wuma Xiangzuo.
Wuma Xiangzuo had heard from his sister Wuma Xiangwei that during her time in the Southern Source Empire, she had crossed paths with Guan Yue and Jiang Ming Prince. Therefore, he came out to meet Jiang Ming.
The two princes met and had a pleasant conversation, feeling as if they had known each other for a long time. Jiang Ming took out Celestial Wine to entertain Wuma Xiangzuo, which made Wuma Xiangzuo regard him with newfound respect and sparked many thoughts in his mind.
It seemed that Jiang Ming's relationship with Guan Yue was quite extraordinary, as he carried Celestial Wine with him, indicating their bond was not ordinary.
After dismissing those around them, Jiang Ming subtly mentioned that his cooperation with Guan Yue was what allowed Guan Yue to obtain the Sky-Sealing Tower. This further impressed Wuma Xiangzuo.
Then Jiang Ming said, "I can stay here for a few more days. Prince, please send someone to invite Miss He Bi here. I will write her a letter; Miss He Bi will definitely come. At that time, she will see your sincerity, and there won't be any issues in the future."
Wuma Xiangzuo was greatly excited and immediately asked Jiang Ming to write the letter.
After finishing the letter, Jiang Ming surprised Wuma Xiangzuo by writing it to Guan Yue!
At this point, Jiang Ming explained the relationship between He Bi and Guan Yue in detail to Wuma Xiangzuo. Since Wuma Xiangzuo had heard about this from his sister, he naturally believed it without doubt.
Jiang Ming's letter quickly reached Guan Tian. Upon seeing that Wuma Xiangzuo was willing to mobilize millions of troops to marry He Bi, he recognized Wuma Xiangzuo's sincerity and immediately sent this news to He Bi, allowing her to make her own decision.
However, Guan Tian's words implied his opinion: Wuma Xiangzuo was reliable!
When He Bi heard that Witch Horse had mobilized five hundred thousand troops to marry her, she couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with emotion. She understood that only if the Emperor of the Myriad Realms agreed could Wuma Xiangzuo possibly proceed and gather millions of troops to marry her.
Since her beloved showed such determination, what was there to hesitate about in going personally?
He Bi's restless heart could not calm down once again.
She immediately summoned a hundred experts from the Gentlewomen's Association and rushed towards the junction of the Southern Source Empire and the Vast Empire.
Crown Prince Jiang Gong had already arranged for someone to be by He Bi's side, so as soon as He Bi stepped out, the scout immediately relayed the information to the Crown Prince. However, by the time the Crown Prince saw this information, three hours had already passed.
All of He Bi's entourage were Senior Cultivators, and their movements were incredibly swift. After three hours, it would be nearly impossible to catch up with them unless it was Little Ancestor Saint Monk.
The Crown Prince could only hope in his heart that Miss He Bi would not run to Wuma Xiangzuo. You are my recognized Consort X. He Bi's fairy-like appearance kept flashing in his mind, hard to forget.
He Bi pressed on without stopping towards Wuma Xiangzuo's location.
He Bi also considered that Crown Prince Jiang Gong might come to intercept her, so along the way, they did not avoid the gazes of any onlookers. They raced forward with everyone, unafraid of shocking the world.
By that evening, they finally arrived at the border between the two empires. Since they were all Senior Cultivators, they easily crossed the Southern Source Empire's border and entered the Vast Empire.
When He Bi saw the magnificent scene of countless troops lined up in formation saluting her, tears filled her eyes. At that moment, she was certain that her choice was not wrong!
A man who boldly professes his love in front of millions is sincere at least at this moment. As a woman, isn't that enough?
When He Bi and her hundred companions reached the center of the formation, her dazzling fairy-like image immediately drew loud cheers from five million soldiers.
Wuma Xiangzuo also noticed the tears in He Bi's eyes and quickly approached her, kneeling on one knee and gentlemanly proposing to He Bi.
The cheers of five million soldiers echoed across the junction of the Vast Empire and Southern Source Empire, resonating for miles and reaching the heavens. They were excited and jumping at the sight of a fairy and loudly shouting for Prince of Witch Horse to marry this fairy.
Looking at Wuma Xiangzuo kneeling before her, He Bi felt that she had finally found her belonging in this tall and handsome man. His love for her was enough.
So she bent down, reached out to pull up Wuma Xiangzuo, and blushed as she fell into his embrace!
At this moment, cheers and applause erupted like thunder, soaring into the clouds, just like Wuma Xiangzuo's emotions which could not calm down for a long time. He was truly happy; being able to marry such a beauty was a great joy in his life.
He wanted to thank many people, but first and foremost he wanted to thank He Bi. Only she could bring him true happiness.
Jiang Ming stood on the side of the Vast Empire's five million troops, watching everything unfold with satisfaction, but secretly feeling a sense of loss: a great beauty from the Southern Source Empire had been taken by the Vast Empire.
However, compared to his own ambitions, these sacrifices were necessary. There could be countless beauties, but there was only one throne. For the sake of the throne, what was it to give up ten beauties? During his days here, Jiang Ming had discussed potential cooperation in detail with Wuma Xiangzuo and had reached some concrete methods of collaboration. Both were eager to become the emperor of this empire! This was the foundation of their partnership.
The greater reason was that Guan Yue had already obtained most of the Child of Heaven and Earth and would soon be able to form the Mother of Heaven and Earth. If Guan Yue succeeded, he would become a significant threat to the Vast Empire, Southern Source Empire, and Dawson Empire as the Supreme Lord. The specific powers he would possess were still unclear, but anyone who held the Mother of Heaven and Earth would undoubtedly have a say in matters.
At that time, as long as they gained Guan Yue's approval, their hopes would become reality!
Therefore, they also needed to treat He Bi well because Guan Yue only recognized He Bi as his sister.
Deep within the palace of the Vast Empire, the emperor and his close ministers were discussing the Mother of Heaven and Earth.
The Left Chancellor praised the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty's decision to send the Second Prince with a show of force without engaging in battle is truly brilliant. It has already alarmed Guan Yue, who is now working for the Third Prince. This has played a very clever role."
The Right Chancellor added without hesitation, "I believe Princess Xiangwei's relationship with Guan Yue is even more important. Princess Xiangwei should take the initiative to invite Guan Yue to our Vast Empire. At that time, we can communicate directly with him and gauge his intentions so we can plan ahead."
The Minister of Military Affairs cautiously reminded them, "Reports indicate that Guan Yue only clashed with powerful figures from the Ancient Tomb Sect Little Ancestor Saint while seizing the Child of Heaven and Earth. Following that incident, three Little Ancestors mysteriously disappeared. Guan Yue is now very powerful; seizing the Child of Heaven and Earth from him is no longer possible. It would be better to adopt a policy of appeasement."
The Grand Scholar of Sacred Assistance said, "We do not intend to use forceful means. We are only considering how to negotiate cooperation with Guan Yue. However, we are at a disadvantage because we do not know what powers the holder of the Mother of Heaven and Earth possesses or what decisions they can make. It is merely said in legends that the Mother of Heaven and Earth rules over the three empires. That is all."
The Minister of Military Affairs immediately replied, "In that case, we need not meet with Guan Yue proactively. Perhaps he will come seeking our assistance later. After all, we are the leaders among the Three Kingdoms."
The Left Chancellor sighed, "What if he has the power to depose royalty?"
As soon as the Left Chancellor finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
If there was even a possibility of that happening, it would be a serious problem.
The Mother of Heaven and Earth had appeared thousands of years ago; how it affected its possessor or what they could do was recorded very vaguely in historical texts, leaving all ministers uncertain. Even the Emperor of the Myriad Realms felt lost regarding this matter; hence he had summoned everyone to discuss it.
However, with so many differing opinions, confusion reigned. The emperor listened with growing frustration.
However, Wuma Xiangzuo's actions this time can be considered a great success. Not only did he bring the woman he admired closer, but more importantly, through Jiang Ming, the Thirteenth Prince, he has already made indirect contact with Guan Yue.
It seems that now it is time for the princess to take action. Surely Wuma Xiangwei can invite Guan Yue to the Vast Empire and discuss matters face to face, which would be better than discussing it ten times over.
They do not know the relationship between He Bi and Guan Yue, which is why they are anxious here.
The emperor then cleared his throat, and all the ministers fell silent. The emperor slowly said, "My loyal subjects, you all have valid points. This successful journey of my son is inseparable from your suggestions. Therefore, I have decided to seize the opportunity and immediately send Princess Xiangwei to the Southern Source Empire to invite Guan Yue to our Vast Empire for a discussion."
The emperor then announced the meeting adjourned.
Wuma Xiangwei never expected that she would be the one sent to invite Guan Yue. She felt quite frustrated; it was originally agreed that Guan Yue would come to the Vast Empire himself, so why did she have to go invite him? If she invited him and he was unavailable, wouldn’t that be embarrassing? Of course, if he was free, Xiangwei believed that Guan Yue would definitely come. Guan Yue was not an arrogant person, and they got along very well; he was also her lifesaver.
Regarding the Mother of Heaven and Earth, Wuma Xiangwei did not believe it would have much effect. Legends can be believed but not fully trusted. Her viewpoint is quite representative among the Dawson Empire and Southern Source Empire.
However, the Vast Empire is a large nation that places great importance on such legends. They cannot afford any turmoil; once chaos arises, it could lead to serious consequences.
As a princess, Wuma Xiangwei's views differ from those of her father. The emperor arranged for her to go to the Southern Source Empire to invite Guan Yue, but she did not want to go personally.
Thus, she sent a message to Guan Yue: asking him to come to the Vast Empire soon for an important matter and also to express her gratitude for saving her life.
Guan Tian did not want to go upon receiving this message because he needed to focus all his efforts on dealing with Jiang Gong, hoping to obtain the Child of Heaven and Earth: Wood Child from the crown prince in the near future.
