Someone!

Empress Ningfu Zhao Chuanzhu was extremely delighted, as she noticed the extraordinary beauty of the young man in white attire, who seemed to be the disciple of some eminent figure.

Indeed, disciples of reclusive masters always possess such grace and poise, this master is truly remarkable!

"This young brother, may I ask..."

Zhao Chuanzhu had just spoken when Qin already bowed: "Hongyi greets Master!"

Hongyi is Qin’s alias, and it’s also the name Qin chose for herself while moving about in the Celestial Hero World. This young man in white is naturally Bai Pu, and the speech was something Qin came up with after discussing the terms of the "Source Lord’s Descent Ceremony" in the Celestial Hero World with Bai Pu.

"Master?!"

Zhao Chuanzhu was stunned.

This excessively young man in white, could he be an Immortal-like figure?

Bai Pu cleared his throat, "Hongyi, your mind is clouded, and your skills are inadequate. I sent you down the mountain, why have you come back up?"

Qin replied, "Barbarians are causing chaos in the Central Plains, mountains and rivers are shattered, the state is overturned, disciple requests Master to emerge and take action."

"This is Zhao Song Imperial Family’s family matter, what does it have to do with me?" Bai Pu had to maintain some aloofness, otherwise, he wouldn’t be taken seriously in the New Song Camp.

Empress Ningfu Zhao Chuanzhu stepped forward and bowed deeply, with tears in her eyes:

"Jin People are lawless, committing atrocities like burning, killing, and pillaging. Elder, please, for the sake of millions of common people, come out to advise and rebuild the country!"

"Success and failure have their destined course. Thinking back to the Late Han turmoil, even Zhuge Liang exhausted himself trying, and could not revive the Han dynasty, why should I waste my heart power on trying to defy fate?" Bai Pu shook his head once more.

The information revealed in this statement made Zhao Chuanzhu’s heartbeat accelerate.

This elder compared himself to Zhuge Liang, showing he possesses talents of grand strategy and planning.

Moreover, according to Elder Hongyi (Qin), her Master’s divine skills are unparalleled! A person with mastery in both literary and martial arts, more formidable than Zhuge Liang.

"If Elder is willing to emerge and assist my Zhao family in restoring the nation, the court will surely bestow high-ranking positions and lands, possibly even titles of nobility," Zhao Chuanzhu requested for the second time.

Bai Pu shook his head, "Earthly riches are like fleeting clouds to me."

Zhao Chuanzhu showed a troubled expression; she had already been refused twice, so she needed to consider carefully before speaking a third time.

Things usually don’t go beyond three requests; if rejected a third time, this elder’s assistance would likely never be obtainable.

Qin quietly whispered something into Zhao Chuanzhu’s ear.

Zhao Chuanzhu had a sudden insight, and once again bowed: "If Elder can help to emerge in support, on the day of our Zhao family’s restoration, temples and monasteries will be erected throughout the nation to honor your name."

"Haha..."

Bai Pu laughed and nodded, "Alright! Considering your sincerity, I can agree to emerge, but you must promise me one condition."

"Please, Elder, give your command!"

"All military and national strategies from now on shall be decided by me, and must be followed by everyone, even the Emperor."

"Once Elder is out, naturally everything shall be guided by you," Zhao Chuanzhu shook her head, sadly stating, "But currently, my father and brother have already been captured... there is no Emperor."

Bai Pu said, "Those captured are merely two foolish monarchs. If you want an Emperor, simply establish one. You, as Empress, have royal bloodline, establishing you as Empress and following the story of Wuzhou is not an impossibility."

Zhao Chuanzhu’s pupils quaked.

This elder is either an arrogant madman or a great sage towering above, surveying the world as a chessboard.

Zhao Chuanzhu believed, undoubtedly, he is the latter.

Without mentioning anything else, just the peculiar and profound divine skill Qin showed while rescuing her from Bianjing City was the most powerful she had ever seen.

And such a powerful person was given only an eight-character review of "mind clouded, and skills inadequate" by her Master, the young elder in white.

"What Elder said about supporting a new monarch is indeed feasible, but it certainly cannot be me. I am just a woman, and there are many offspring left by my father and brother, how can a hen announce the dawn?" Zhao Chuanzhu said.

"All Zhao Song royal heirs have been captured by the Jin People; apart from you, where else is there royal bloodline?" Bai Pu shook his head.

Qin immediately said, "Master, the Princess told me there’s still the Twenty-Eighth Prince Zhao Si hiding in the Imperial Palace, not yet found by the Jin Soldiers."

"My twenty-eighth brother is only eight years old this year; how dangerous it must be for him alone in the enemy-occupied Imperial Palace," Zhao Chuanzhu tearily replied.

"Since there’s a Prince, he should be rescued," Bai Pu stated.

"That’s also what the disciple thought; however, feeling weak alone, I wanted to invite Master to take action and rescue the Twenty-Eighth Prince," Qin responded accommodatingly.

"Alright then! Let’s rescue people first. How many people can you mobilize now?" Bai Pu asked.

Zhao Chuanzhu said, "Following Elder Hongyi’s advice, we’ve gathered still loyal civil and military officials to the court. The household guards of these officials amount to about a hundred, but they’re inexperienced in combat, not very useful."

Pausing for a moment, Zhao Chuanzhu continued, "However, some Jianghu gangs with allegiance to the court also sent quite a few good fighters, like the Iron Staff Gang, Golden Saber Sect, Cao Bang..."

A bunch of rabble.

Before his descent, Bai Pu already had a clear understanding of these Jianghu gangs through Qin.

Celestial Hero: Jingkang Incident World is a martial arts setting; martial arts are the theme, with Song-Jin warfare, Jingkang Incident being the great trend.

In this martial arts world, first-class experts are typically Mid-level Enhanced Leaders, serving as Gang Leaders in big gangs, like Iron Beggar "Iron Staff" Luo Qianhui of the Iron Staff Gang. The gang elders below are Leader Level.

Further up, the super first-class experts are martial arts legends, usually seen rarely, such as "Celestial Sword," "Sword Immortal," presumed to be Lord Level powers.

The Celestial Hero World and the Heart Demon World are similar, having Inheritance Mystical Arts, and the native inhabitants’ strength is superior to other Spirit Realm experts of the same level.

However, in the Celestial Hero World, Qin’s strength is still very "top."

She herself is a Level 6 Enhanced Hero, gained Attributes Enhancement from Bai Pu’s Source Blood, Limit Breaker’s Technique and Skills Enhancement, and comprehended Blood Mystical Arts, on par with first-class experts who mastered Mystical Arts, like Iron Beggar Luo Qianhui.

That’s why, even after the heads of gangs like Iron Beggar gathered in Bianjing for royal protection, Qin was still able to occupy a leading position. If her strength were inadequate, she would’ve been replaced long ago.

Seeing Bai Pu agree to emerge, Zhao Chuanzhu was greatly delighted, handing the large box she was carrying to Bai Pu.

Bai Pu opened it, the box was filled with gold and silver ingots, gold, pearls, and jade and other valuables.

All are Spirit Realm precious metals!

Bai Pu was somewhat thrilled internally, although he did not lack Spiritual Points, no one would dislike having more wealth.

However, when Bai Pu attempted to collect this box of Spirit Realm gold and silver wealth, he received a prompt. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
