Wu Shattered Star River

The enthronement went very smoothly!

No unexpected events occurred outside, and naturally, no powerful figures came to interfere.

With the support of the three Great Emperors of the Four Domains and so many powerful individuals present, aside from Cang Ritian, no strong figure from the Four Domains dared to voice the slightest objection.

City Lord Ding also mobilized an army to come over, and Lei Nishang also mobilized an army, placing the entire Baijing City under martial law, all to prevent any ignorant individuals from causing trouble and ruining the atmosphere of the enthronement.

The enthronement originally had many cumbersome steps and formalities, but Jiang Han, after reviewing the relevant procedures, directly cut them in half.

After much effort, the enthronement ceremony was finally completed. Under the witness of the three Great Emperors and a group of powerful figures such as Zhen Ji and City Lord Ding, Jiang Han successfully ascended the throne and became the Great Emperor of the Eastern Domain.

The Eastern Domain calendar also began to change from this day forward, with Jiang Han changing the country's name to Yuan'an and granting amnesty to the world.

Almost all the Emperor-level, Heavenly Emperor, Saint Ruler, and Dao Ancestor realm cultivators from the Eastern Domain came; those who didn't come had migrated to the Northern Domain. This time, the Northern Domain gained a lot of advantages, receiving many powerful individuals and large clans for nothing.

However, the Northern Domain's strength was already strong, and no one could stop Yao Ao from attacking the Eastern, Western, and Southern Domains.

Moreover, Jiang Han was considered Yao Ao's life-saving benefactor, and with the relationship he had with Zhen Ji and Little Fish, Yao Ao's character was trustworthy, so Jiang Han didn't feel there was anything to worry about.

Besides, once the Tianlin Clan was destroyed and Yao Ao wanted to unify the Land of Extreme Winter, Jiang Han wouldn't object either. At worst, he would abdicate at that time, and he believed Yao Ao wouldn't mistreat him, giving him a territory, which Jiang Han thought would be enough.

After the enthronement was completed, Yao Ao and Ye Tianfan prepared to leave with their teams.

Ye Tianfan had been pondering for some time but couldn't find any way to deal with the Demonic Qi within Jiang Han, mainly because it involved the soul. The Demonic Qi was too strong, and Ye Tianfan wasn't very proficient in matters of the soul, so naturally, he couldn't think of a solution.

Before Yao Ao and Ye Tianfan left, they found Jiang Han. He said, "Jiang Han, actually... if you want to expel the Demonic Qi, the best way is to find Chi Xie."

"Of course... there's a risk in finding Chi Xie, after all, he's the king of the Land of Heavenly Demons. Because you have Demonic Qi on you, he's willing to help you. If you want to expel the Demonic Qi, he might, in a fit of anger, attack you."

"Find Chi Xie?"

Jiang Han frowned, and he asked, "If I look for him, I'll have to go to the Central Domain and then enter from the Ancestral Dragon Sea, which makes it easy for Cang Ritian to find me."

"No need!"

Yao Ao thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I know a secret passage to the Land of Heavenly Demons. The opening is very small and was sealed by me using a super treasure. So, the demonic creatures have never been able to come out from there, and they probably haven't discovered that place. If you want to go, you can enter from that opening."

"Uh..."

Jiang Han was stunned and asked, "Is that opening in the Northern Domain?"

"It's in the Heavenly Domain between the Western and Northern Domains!"

Ye Tianfan said with a wry smile, "After this opening was discovered, I immediately found Yao Ao, and then Yao Ao sealed it. It's been hundreds of thousands of years since it was discovered, and the demonic creatures have never come out from here, so they probably can't discover it."

Jiang Han frowned. Just as Yao Ao said, there would be risks in finding Chi Xie. Although Chi Xie seemed to be good to him? And even helped him, but could it be because he had Demonic Qi within his body?

If Jiang Han wanted to expel the Demonic Qi, and Chi Xie, in a fit of anger, attacked Jiang Han, then no one could save Jiang Han.

"By the way!"

Jiang Han suddenly thought of something, and he said to Yao Ao, "Chi Xie passed on a cultivation method to me, which is for refining Demonic Qi. This cultivation method has a total of three levels, and I've only cultivated the first level."

"Uncle Yao, do you think if I can cultivate to the third level, will I have a chance to control the Demonic Qi and make the tattoos on my body disappear?"

"Cultivation method?"

Yao Ao, Ye Tianfan, and Zhen Ji exchanged glances, all somewhat surprised. Chi Xie not only helped Jiang Han but actually passed on a cultivation method?

With Chi Xie's battle prowess and wisdom, he could see at a glance that Jiang Han was not a citizen of the Land of Heavenly Demons but of the Land of Extreme Winter. If that was the case, not killing him was one thing, but to help him and, most importantly, to give Jiang Han a cultivation method?

This was too strange!

Yao Ao pondered for a moment and said, "There are two possibilities. First, Chi Xie might admire you very much, perhaps seeing that you've cultivated the Primordial Chaos Power, so he's helping you and doing you a favor. The second possibility is that he wants you to be completely demonized, branding you with the mark of the Land of Heavenly Demons to your core."

Yao Ao thought for a moment and added, "Regardless of which one it is, you can cultivate this method because your sanity hasn't been lost. After cultivating the method, you'll become stronger, becoming a higher-level demonic creature, and your sanity won't be lost either."

"Since that's the case, you'll still be yourself. Perhaps when you cultivate to the third level, you'll be able to freely control the Demonic Qi and it won't overflow."

"That's right!"

Ye Tianfan nodded and said, "Chi Xie doesn't have any demonic characteristics on him, except for the aura of Demonic Qi, which doesn't matter."

Zhen Ji pondered for a moment and nodded, "Jiang Han, why don't you cultivate for a while? Anyway, how bad can it get? After you cultivate to the third level, we'll go to the Lower Realm."

"Lower Realm?"

Yao Ao's eyes lit up and asked, "Are you going to pick up Little Fish?"

Zhen Ji's face darkened, and she said, "What does it have to do with you? Go back to your Northern Domain!"

Yao Ao touched his nose, a hint of pleading in his eyes, and said, "Zhen Ji, can I go down with you? As the child's father, I haven't even seen her once. This is unfair to both me and Little Fish."

"Get lost!"

Zhen Ji glared and turned to leave the palace.

Seeing Yao Ao's unsightly expression, Ye Tianfan smiled awkwardly and said, "This is your own family matter, you handle it yourselves. I'll go back to the Western Domain first and we'll discuss it later."

Ye Tianfan left, leaving only Yao Ao and Jiang Han in the hall. Yao Ao's face was bitter, and he looked at Jiang Han and said, "Jiang Han, as the child's father, Zhen Ji won't even let me see her. Isn't that too much?"

How could Jiang Han say anything about this? He asked, "Uncle Yao, what happened back then? Why does Aunt Zhen have such a big opinion of you?"

Since Yao Ao and Zhen Ji loved each other and even had a daughter, why didn't the two of them end up together? This made Jiang Han very curious.

"Alas, it's all my fault..."

Yao Ao touched his nose and explained after pondering for a moment, "When Zhen Ji and I met, I wasn't yet the Great Emperor of the Northern Domain. Zhen Ji was already the Second Master of the Eastern Domain at that time. At that time, I was the commander of the Northern Domain, and Zhen Ji was the commander of the Eastern Domain. We joined hands to resist the Central Domain, and later we fell in love."

"When I first pursued Zhen Ji, I said I was willing to come to the Eastern Domain with her, but later my battle prowess improved very quickly, and my ambition grew."

"I became the Great Emperor of the Northern Domain, so naturally I couldn't come to the Eastern Domain. Zhen Ji blamed me for going back on my word, so we parted ways. She was suppressed in every way by Xiong Guanshan in the Eastern Domain, and I didn't help her for the sake of the big picture, so she holds a grudge against me in her heart..."

Jiang Han nodded, understanding roughly. He thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Yao, you should go back to the Northern Domain first. When I'm about to successfully cultivate this method, I'll send someone to give you a message. At that time, you can secretly follow us to the Lower Realm. If Aunt Zhen gets angry, let her blame me..."

"Hehe!"

Yao Ao patted Jiang Han on the shoulder and said, "You're still a loyal kid. Alright, I'll go first. You send me a message later!"
