Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Abnormality (Request for Followers, Request for Yue Tickets!)

Wang Sheng naturally saw the Human Emperor’s Decree that had suddenly appeared in the skies above Shuzhou.

He was reading a book that evening when he suddenly heard an anxious and majestic voice from the sky.

When he stepped outside, the first thing he saw were the villagers of Qingshan Village kneeling on the ground.

Then he saw the “Human Emperor’s Decree” high up in the air, and from the sound he had heard earlier, this decree was mostly likely issued by the emperor of Great Zhou.

“The Human Emperor…”

In Wang Sheng’s understanding, being the Human Emperor was not an easy role—the position was highly revered, even by immortals.

However, while the aura of this Human Emperor’s Decree was terrifying and he felt the pressure even from afar, it wasn’t quite like what he had imagined; a mere Human Emperor whose decree only made commoners bow, was that really a Human Emperor?

So, in his heart, he believed this was merely a decree from a powerful being, one powerful enough for him to look up to at the moment.

“The Master of Destiny is more terrifying than imagined!”

But this powerful being seemed somewhat lacking in confidence.

The words “Cease Fighting” were full of dominance, but—

“It’s likely the peace won’t last long.”

Jiang River King and King Yong Nian, as royal descendants, were fighting over each other’s territory, and merely a casual command to cease fighting without any punitive measures.

That’s nonsensical—it all seemed like bluffing based on residual influence.

But then again, if the decree had true strength behind it, King Yong Nian and Jiang River King wouldn’t have started fighting in the first place.

The timing of this decree’s arrival was quite peculiar indeed!

Not to mention, only after Jiang River King and King Yong Nian had knocked the sense out of each other did the decree arrive with just a word to cease fighting.

Could it be that the decree took a long time to arrive here?

Even if temporarily stopped, the two sides won’t give up easily.

“I wonder how long the peace can last!”

Wang Sheng, although thinking that the two kings would definitely fight again, believed that the “Human Emperor’s Decree” would provide some buffer time.

During this buffer, a lot could be done.

Soon, the Human Emperor’s Decree disappeared into the sky, and the villagers who were prostrate on the ground stood up.

Wang Sheng noticed a figure, Li Yongfeng.

Clearly, Li Yongfeng had knelt for the decree as well.

However, Li Yongfeng kneeling because of the Human Emperor’s Decree contradicted his conjecture.

Li Yongfeng had started training about a month ago, and he had been constantly supplied with Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills, so he had become a First Grade Martial Artist a few days earlier.

Although he was one of the weakest Martial Artists, he was no longer just a mere ordinary person.

Wang Sheng initially thought that Martial Artists would not be affected by the “Human Emperor’s Decree,” but reality proved otherwise—

Facing the “Human Emperor’s Decree,” Li Yongfeng was no different from an ordinary person.

“Is it because he’s too weak?”

Regarding matters that could be verified directly, Wang Sheng was not fond of conjecture.

While everyone was standing up and discussing the “Human Emperor’s Decree,” he sought out Li Yongfeng.

“Brother Yongfeng, what did you feel when the ‘Human Emperor’s Decree’ appeared just now?”

Although Li Yongfeng didn’t understand why Wang Sheng asked that, he replied, “I’m not quite sure about the feeling. After the ‘Human Emperor’s Decree’ appeared, I just walked out and knelt down instinctively, Yun Sheng, that ‘Human Emperor’s Decree’ must have come from the emperor of Great Zhou in the Imperial City, truly powerful…”

“Brother Yongfeng, you’re so certain that decree is from the emperor of Great Zhou, don’t you find it strange?”

“Strange?” Li Yongfeng was puzzled, “Isn’t that our Great Zhou emperor’s decree?”

“…”

Wang Sheng didn’t continue asking; he knew it was mostly hopeless to clarify anything further with Li Yongfeng.

Although he initially thought the same, he realized something was amiss when the decree vanished.

Wasn’t anyone else curious?

It was just a so-called Dharma Decree, carelessly assumed to be from the Human Emperor.

If they were near Jiangyuan City, one could judge its authenticity based on the attitudes of the two kings.

But far away in Qingshan Village, how could everyone be so certain it was a real “Human Emperor’s Decree” without any doubt?

Even after he raised a warning, not a shred of suspicion arose.

He had received all the memories from his body, and in his memory, it was also the first time he encountered the “Human Emperor’s Decree,” so he was sure that the people of Qingshan Village had never seen this so-called “Human Emperor’s Decree.”

Wang Sheng pondered for a while, then went to ask Xu Qu.

But Xu Qu gave more or less the same response.

Xu Qu was a Third Grade Martial Artist, displaying no difference from ordinary people.

After asking, Wang Sheng stopped right there and didn’t pursue further.

Upon returning to his room, he looked at the spot where the “Human Emperor’s Decree” had appeared and took a deep breath.

“The waters are deep!”

In such “deep waters,” he might struggle, and better not to indulge his curiosity too much.

Curiosity killed the cat, and that saying wasn’t baseless.

Wang Sheng forcibly pushed the curiosity to the back of his mind, deciding not to think about it, as he currently lacked the strength to get involved.

“Just honestly grind skills!”

When in doubt, grind skills.

Only seeing the progress bar improve could bring him satisfaction and peace of mind.

After the “Human Emperor’s Decree,” the conflicts between Jiang River King and Yong Nian King had temporarily stopped, but Jiang River King’s army and the Mechanical Giant Beast had not withdrawn, clearly indicating another upcoming battle between the two kings.

This was the news Li Yongfeng and other new Martial Artists gathered while they were out.

Because of this news, the village chief Zhou Zhengwen was determined to relocate, homeland was hard to leave, but nothing was more important than life.

Although the war might not affect Qingshan Village, the village chief couldn’t take the risk.

However, the appearance of the Human Emperor’s Decree did grant the village more preparation time, so the originally abrupt and pressing timeline due to the war got eased.

The first task was to clean up the dilapidated houses and caves inside Qingshan Village.

Because Li Yongfeng and others had become Martial Artists.

Entering the mountains no longer depended solely on Wang Sheng, which made things much easier.

There were also livestock in the village that needed handling.

These series of tasks were initially planned to be handled after entering Qingshan Village, but now with more time, they could be arranged in advance.

Moreover, village chief Zhou Zhengwen specially assigned two Martial Artists to constantly gather information from the outside to stay prepared.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly fashion, but a few days after the incident with the “Human Emperor’s Decree,” the Martial Artists who went out to scout brought back a piece of news.

A band of very powerful water bandits had appeared on the Yellow Dragon River.

The Green Flood Dragon Gang!

“This gang seems to have appeared suddenly. It’s said that the Gang Leader is a Sixth Grade Martial Artist, with three Fifth Grade Martial Artists as Vice Gang Leaders, along with several other Martial Artists. They have already raided many villages and towns, even the Sun Family is extremely wary of them.”

The Sun Family’s clan power was not weak, but faced with the Sixth Grade Martial Artist-led Green Flood Dragon Gang, they didn’t dare to provoke lightly.

After hearing this, the village chief sighed and said, “Our village is quite remote; it should not affect us, right?”

Wang Sheng was also present at the time.

For some reason, he felt like the village chief had raised a very high flag…
