Wu Shattered Star River

Most of the Yao clan had entered the Void Realm and Secret Realms before. Some Secret Realms and one Void Realm were found, and the Yao clan members inside were all killed.

Some clan members hiding in the territories of other large clans were also found and massacred, but many clan members survived.

The reasons they weren't found were twofold: first, the Tianlin Clan had only recently unified the Land of Bitter Winter, and the regions hadn't been completely pacified.

Second, Jiang Han and the others had only left recently, just a few years ago, and the Tianlin Clan didn't have enough time to search.

Many Void Realm and Secret Realm entrances are very hidden, and the location of the entrances is top secret. Generally, only the clan king and high-ranking members of the clan know about them; the rest of the clan doesn't, so searching takes time.

Additionally, the Tianlin Clan had just unified the world, and they were busy enjoying themselves and weren't in a hurry to search for the remnants of other clans.

They thought that Jiang Han and Yao Ao had gone to the Upper Realm and wouldn't rise so quickly. They figured that in a few decades or centuries, they would eventually find most of the Void Realms and Secret Realms.

The clan members of various clans were released from the Void Realms and Secret Realms. Ye Tianfan also brought out the experts of the Ye family, and the armies of various clans quickly swept across the Four Regions.

There weren't many Tianlin Clan members in the Four Regions, and they were easily wiped out.

Experts from various clans gathered at Tianlin Mountain and began discussing the division of territory after the war.

Yao Ao called Jiang Han out, and a group of experts turned their attention to Jiang Han. How to divide the territory of the Land of Bitter Winter basically depended on Jiang Han's opinion.

Jiang Han had been thinking about this issue for the past few months. Seeing a group of experts looking at him, he thought for a while and said, "Everyone, how about… we don't divide the territory?"

"Don't divide it?"

The experts from various clans felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. Was Jiang Han going to take it all for himself? Was he going to become the Great Emperor of the Land of Bitter Winter? Was he going to monopolize all the resources and not even give the clans a little soup to drink?

Yao Ao understood Jiang Han very well. He knew that Jiang Han definitely didn't mean that, so he asked, "Jiang Han, what are your thoughts?"

Jiang Han said, "My idea is to unify the Land of Bitter Winter, allocate all resources uniformly, and turn the Land of Bitter Winter into the territory of the Bitter Winter Gate. High-ranking members of each clan will hold positions in the Bitter Winter Gate and form a Council of Elders or something like that. At that time, we'll share the resources together, twist ourselves into a rope, and work hard to develop and grow together."

Yao Ao nodded slightly. He had thought about this issue before because neither he nor Jiang Han would stay in the Land of Bitter Winter. It was possible to regard the Land of Bitter Winter as the great rear of the Bitter Winter Gate.

This place could continuously transport talents and resources, and the Bitter Winter Gate would become stronger and stronger.

Seeing the experts from various clans fall into deep thought, Jiang Han said, "You have all been to the Land of Gods, and you know how big the outside world is and how strong the experts outside are. If you are always trapped in the Land of Bitter Winter, you will only ever be frogs in a well. Moreover, if a powerful force from the Upper Realm invades, we will not be able to resist it."

"You can still keep your clans' headquarters in the Land of Bitter Winter, and you can send the geniuses and elites of your clans to the Upper Realm to train and grow up."

"Don't overthink it. Don't think that I have any particularly big ambitions. Yao Uncle will still be the Sect Master of the Bitter Winter Gate, and the decisions of the Council of Elders can become the highest decision-making body. I won't manage the affairs of the Bitter Winter Gate, nor will I divide your resources."

"The clan kings of each clan can all hold the position of Elder and become members of the Council of Elders. The resources of the Land of Bitter Winter will be handed over uniformly, and then each clan will divide them equally according to the ratio. This way, everyone will be twisted into a rope, can unite and help each other, and can develop and grow together."

The clan kings of various clans fell into deep thought. Jiang Han's words touched them deeply, especially Jiang Han's statement that he would not be the Sect Master and would not divide the resources.

This proved that Jiang Han didn't want to monopolize the Land of Bitter Winter; he was only thinking about the future of the Land of Bitter Winter.

"I think it's possible!"

Lei Nishang, a staunch supporter of Jiang Han, immediately stood up and said, "If we divide the territory as before, the Five Regions may be at peace for a short time. Over time, the Five Regions may have friction again, and there will be infighting again."

"What will be lost then is the strength and foundation of our various clans. It's not bad to unify everything. This way, everyone will be united within the Bitter Winter Gate, and it will be easier to discuss things and there will be no major wars."

Ying Sha stood up and said, "We have indeed been frogs in a well by staying in the Land of Bitter Winter all the time. Also… the Dark Dao and the Light Dao are at war above. If the Light Dao loses, we will all be doomed and will all be massacred. So, there's no need to divide the territory; it's meaningless!"

Ye Tianfan had not been to the Land of Gods and didn't know much about the situation in the Upper Realm, so he was actually a little resistant.

After all, his Ye family had been the masters of the Western Region for generations, and if it was unified, the Ye family would lose its power and status as the overlord of the Western Region.

Seeing Ye Tianfan hesitate, Yao Ao said, "Old Ye, don't worry. What's yours is still yours. If you don't trust me, don't you trust Jiang Han?"

"To put it bluntly, the Land of Bitter Winter was able to be retaken entirely thanks to Jiang Han. Even if Jiang Han wanted to become the Great Emperor of the Land of Bitter Winter, who could stop him? Now he's giving up the position of Sect Master and dividing the benefits equally among our clans. What more could we ask for?"

Yao Ao's words were very direct and realistic!

The reason you have the opportunity to sit here today and divide the territory is all because of Jiang Han. Jiang Han is willing to discuss it with everyone, which is giving you face.

Jiang Han could not discuss it and directly issue orders. Who would dare to resist?

Yao Ao's words made Ye Tianfan and the others silent.

Seventh Ancestor thought for a while and said, "I support it!"

Seventh Ancestor represented the Southern Region. When Seventh Ancestor supported it, the clan king of the Heavenly Ape Clan, Divine Flame Old Ancestor, and the others all stood up and said, "Support!"

The Southern Region, Eastern Region, and Northern Region all supported it, leaving only the Western Region. Ye Tianfan hesitated for a moment and looked towards Jiang Han.

He thought about his interactions with Jiang Han during this period, thought about his understanding of Jiang Han, and pursed his lips, saying, "Okay, I support it too!"

"Okay, let's do it this way!"

Jiang Han stood up and said, "You can discuss the specific internal structure, how to supervise the Land of Bitter Winter usually, and how to guard each region. I won't participate."

"Yao Uncle, I hope that the Bitter Winter Gate will be fair and just, that no one family will dominate, that resources will be allocated reasonably, that everyone will compete healthily, and that we will unite as one and work hard to develop and grow!"

"Yeah!"

Yao Ao nodded, his gaze at Jiang Han as he left was somewhat complicated.

His greatest wish in this life was to attack the Central Region and become the King of the Central Region, but he never expected that the situation would develop like this in the end.

Jiang Han shook his hands and didn't care. He is now the Sect Master of the Bitter Winter Gate, which is indirectly equal to the Great Emperor of the Land of Bitter Winter.

However, this Great Emperor was not won by him alone, but was more like Jiang Han not wanting it and giving it to him. Jiang Han's combat power is not as good as his, but he is stronger than him in some aspects, so it is very complicated…

He didn't know what to feel in his heart.

In any case, it was a good thing. At least the Yao clan could live, develop, and grow steadily in the future.

"I propose!"

Yao Ao pondered for a moment and said, "In the future, the Bitter Winter Gate will take out 10% of the resources it obtains each year and give them to Jiang Han, hiring him as an honorary Elder."

"Jiang Han himself doesn't need too many resources for cultivation, but Jiang Han's large family needs resources for cultivation. He can not want it, but we can't be ignorant. What do you think?"
