"Hm?" Looking at Chen Jing, Chen Heng stared in surprise.

"What has happened?" he asked out of curiosity, wanting to know what had happened in Great Qi over the past five years.

Based on Chen Yu's memories, Great Qi should still be in a stable period and nothing should have happened.

"Half a year ago, the Liunan Prince returned…" looking at Chen Heng, Chen Jing lightly sighed and spoke.

Following this, Chen Jing began to speak of what had happened recently.

The Song Qi that had returned was completely different than before.

He had become a cultivator and done away with his weak personality, and he had gone to confront the King and Queen of Qi.

They faced off against each other, following which Song Qi suppressed the palace guards and killed the Queen of Qi.

Not only this, many people were caught up, and he ended up destroying many families during the night.

The scene was incredibly tragic and was still deeply engraved in Chen Jing's mind, making him feel quite fearful.

So such a thing happened…

Hearing Chen Jing's words, Chen Heng became silent and understood roughly what had happened.

It seemed that Song Qi was still holding onto what had happened back then, so he had gone to settle the score.

Chen Heng understood how Song Qi felt.

After inheriting Chen Yu's memories, Chen Heng knew some of the details.

He did not know too much about the palace affairs, but he knew that it seemed to have been the Queen of Qi who had sent the Northern Nine Bandits.

After going back in time and knowing what had happened, how could Song Qi leave things like that?

It would be strange if he did not do anything.

After all, the current Song Qi was different than the Song Qi of the past.

Back then, Tian Xingzi had sympathized with Song Qi but had despised his personality, so he had used a divine ability to allow him to gain his future self's memories and change.

The current Song Qi was completely different than the Song Qi of the past.

However, Chen Jing did not know this—he had thought that Song Qi had just hidden himself very well and tricked everyone back then.

Otherwise, there would be no way to explain the changes in Song Qi.

Looks like his cultivation has progressed much over the years.

Looking at Chen Jing, Chen Heng thought to himself.

Even though Great Qi's strength was not strong, they still had thousands of elite soldiers in the palace as well as dozens of Martial Illumination experts. There were even two or three Grandmaster level people.

For Song Qi to be able to go on a rampage in the palace, he definitely had great strength.

He would at least be at the peak of Qi Refining.

Only with such strength and appropriate magic tools would he be able to freely enter and exit the palace.

"Teacher…" hearing Chen Heng and Chen Jing's discussion, Qi Yu, who had been silent this whole time, finally spoke, "Is Great Qi… really so weak?"

He felt quite curious and could not help but ask.

In the Bohai region, the strong reigned supreme, and all Kingdoms had strong experts defending them.

As such, from how Qi Yu saw it, for something like this to happen in Great Qi, it was completely incomprehensible.

After all, from what Chen Jing had said, this Liunan Prince had only cultivated for four or five years.

A Kingdom's palace had been broken into by a cultivator who had only cultivated for four or five years? It was simply too weak.

"Oh?" Chen Jing turned and noticed Qi Yu, "Is this your disciple?"

"That's right, I took him in while in the Bohai region."

Chen Heng smiled and patted Qi Yu's head before saying, "Don't make a ruckus. Some people can't be viewed by ordinary terms. For people like him, cultivating for four or five years is enough for him to reach a stage that some people could never reach their entire lives."

He paused before continuing, "However, you're right. Great Qi's strength is indeed a bit weak."

"Weak?" Chen Jing's expression slightly changed as he quickly realized some things.

Chen Heng had once been a guard in the palace, and he knew Great Qi's strength clearly.

Since he felt that Great Qi was weak, then…

Thinking to there, Chen Jing's eyes lit up as he asked, "Yu'Er, how… is your cultivation? How does it compare to the Liunan Prince?"

His expression was serious as he asked this question.

"The Liunan Prince?" Chen Heng smiled, and after thinking about it, he said, "I'm not sure what the Liunan Prince's cultivation is like right now, but I can also do what he did half a year ago. Moreover, I can do it even better."

The meaning behind these words was that he was most likely stronger than Song Qi.

Chen Jing's eyes shined as a look of delight appeared on his face, "Good, good, good!"

He seemed to think of something, and his face became filled with excitement.

On that day, Chen Heng and Chen Jing discussed much.

The next day, Chen Jing went out and invited a few other large aristocratic families for a banquet.

"Teacher…"

At night, walking on the street and looking at Chen Heng, Qi Yu hesitated and said, "Do we really need to go to such troubles? With teacher's strength, wouldn't taking over this place be incredibly easy?"

From how he saw it, Great Qi was incredibly weak, and with Chen Heng's strength, he could just capture the King of Qi and take his place. What need was there to make things so complicated?

"How else should I do it?" Chen Heng knew what his disciple was thinking, so he chuckled and asked, "I'll capture the King of Qi and take his position, and then what?"

"And then?" Qi Yu paused in surprise.

After doing all that, Chen Heng would have obtained a Kingdom. What was there after that?

"Governing a Kingdom requires subordinates," Chen Heng said, "Otherwise, with all the things to take care of, you won't be able to cultivate anymore."

No matter how strong one's cultivation was, that was just battle strength; one would still need others to help govern a Kingdom.

This was the purpose of Chen Heng returning to the Chen family.

The Chen family was where Chen Heng's original identity had come from, so they were the ones closest to him and would be the best choices as subordinates.

The aristocratic families that had good relations with Chen Heng could also obtain some power and support them.

This was something Chen Heng was used to—no matter when or where, he liked to gather the strength of others and expand his faction.

The more of this kind of power he had, the better.

After all, from how Chen Heng saw it, as long as it was useful, there was not any power that was not worth gathering.

Hearing Chen Heng's words, Qi Yu nodded but still looked a bit confused.

It seemed that a child of his age still found politics quite difficult to grasp.

However, Chen Heng did not need him to understand; for some things, one would naturally understand after reaching a certain point or post in life.

"Let's go."

Chen Heng led Qi Yu to continue walking and came before the palace.

Because of what had happened half a year ago, there were many guards here.

However, they were not able to stop Chen Heng.

A faint golden glass pearl flashed, giving off a unique aura. It looked like a divine treasure, incredibly resplendent and holy.

Chen Heng's gaze was calm as he tossed it out, causing a light to spread out.

The light did not harm the surroundings, but the instant it touched the guards, they lost their strength and collapsed.

Following this, a wave of shouts sounded out.

The Chen family's people, who had been waiting, rushed up and took over the palace.

In the surroundings, not a single person could resist.

Only Martial Illumination experts could still fight, but they were not a match for Chen Heng at all.

Time gradually passed and Chen Heng continued onwards.

Ahead was a throne, looking quite simple, symbolizing the King of Qi's authority and power.

However, there was a different person on it now.

"It's just a normal chair."

Chen Heng sat on it and shook his head, "It can't even compare to the crudest magic tool. The materials are also quite ordinary; it's just ordinary essence gold."

To ordinary martial artists, essence gold was worth a fortune, and a throne made of essence gold would be incredibly precious.

However, to a master refiner like Chen Heng, it was not a big deal.

Back in the Bohai region, he had many materials much higher grade than essence gold, so he did not have much interest in this.

By now, the chaos outside had mostly died down.

Footsteps sounded out from outside.

Chen Jing and a few other people had excited looks on their faces as they strode in.

"Yu'Er," Chen Jing looked delighted as he came before Chen Heng, "the King of Qi has been captured. In the future, you will be the new King of Qi."

"The new King of Qi?" Chen Heng said before shaking his head, "Let's change the name.

"Since the master has changed, we should change it to our family's name. From now on, there will be no King of Qi, only King of Chen."

"King of Chen…" Chen Jing repeated as his expression became more and more excited, "Very good, very good."

"I will spend most of my time cultivating and will leave most matters to uncle. How does that sound?" Chen Heng asked as he looked at Chen Jing and smiled.

"Alright," Chen Jing did not refuse and nodded.

This was what they had agreed on in advance.

After all, Chen Heng was a cultivator and could not take care of all matters, but the Kingdom still needed people to govern it.

As such, the main responsibility fell on Chen Jing, the Patriarch of the Chen family.

Chen Jing also felt quite pleased about Chen Heng's decision.

With Chen Heng and the Chen family leading the way and a few other aristocratic families helping out, Great Qi had been turned on its head in a single night, and the master of the Kingdom had directly changed.

By doing this, Chen Heng was able to guarantee himself a decent outcome in the simulation without spending too much effort.

In the previous world, he had spent a great deal of time and effort to obtain his own Kingdom.

However, he had been able to do this incredibly easily in this world.

This was the difference in strength.

In the previous world, even as a Great Knight, he could face a small army by himself, but he could not face an encirclement of thousands of soldiers. Even he would have to run in such a situation.

However, things were completely different in this world.

With enough magic tools, Chen Heng could easily destroy a 10,000 soldier army.

As for ordinary mortals, they did not have the right to even resist.

With such strength, let alone facing an army by himself, he could face a Kingdom by himself.

As such, it was not that difficult for Chen Heng to take over Great Qi and establish the Chen Kingdom.

Based on his experience from the previous simulation, after doing this, he would have guaranteed a large number of Points. Perhaps it would not be as much as what he had gained in the previous simulation, but he would at least be able to recoup his 500 Points.

This was already quite good.

..........

Moreover, his advance had only just begun.

Even though his Fortune had started to break out, it would last for another 100 years.

During those 100 years, everything he did would go smoothly and he would not face much obstructions.

Thinking about that, Chen Heng felt quite excited.

Following this, he did not do much and just silently stayed in the Chen Kingdom and defended it.

...

At night, silver moonlight fell on Chen Heng, illuminating his body.

Chen Heng sat in front of a palace hall by himself, holding a silver sword as he silently waited.

After a few moments, as he sent in spirit energy, the silver sword gave off light and seemed to come alive.

"How long… did I sleep for…" Dan Qingzi's voice sounded out.

"It has been six or seven years."

Looking at Dan Qingzi awakening, he smiled, "Teacher, you've finally woken up."

"Indeed, I've finally woken up," Dan Qingzi said as he sighed.

In the next moment, he suddenly sensed something was off.

"You!" His voice became louder as he said, "You didn't use the Ten Thousand Spirit Foundation to build your Foundation?"

"Mm," Chen Heng nodded with a calm expression, "some things happened and I had to use another Foundation Building Technique."

Hearing Dan Qingzi's words, Chen Heng replied in a bit of a teasing tone.

"How could you do this?" Dan Qingzi's voice became infuriated, "Didn't I tell you that you had to use the Ten Thousand Spirit Foundation?"

"Why are you so flustered, teacher?" Chen Heng sighed, "Is it because you're worried that I won't be able to enter the Ten Thousand Wave Sword Sect or because you won't be able to steal my body?"

Dan Qingzi's voice paused.

"Are you still going to put up an act?" Chen Heng asked calmly, "Possession is incredibly complicated, and the most important thing is compatibility.

"Not only does it require physical compatibility, but it also requires someone with a complete Spirit Root.

"The most important thing is that the person possessing and the person being possessed have the same cultivation foundation. Teacher, I'm guessing that is why you wanted me to cultivate the Ten Thousand Spirit Foundation."

Many of the things that Dan Qingzi had said in the past were wrong.

The Foundation built in Foundation Building was very important and was indeed something that determined whether one could cultivate other Sects' techniques.

However, this so-called Ten Thousand Spirit Foundation was not a proper technique at all. Someone had added many things in it so that they could control the user in the future.

The reason why Dan Qingzi had given this Ten Thousand Spirit Foundation to Chen Heng was not so he could join the Ten Thousand Wave Sword Sect but so that it would make it easier to possess him in the future.

Before, Chen Heng had not been able to discover this.

After all, this method was quite stealthy and he would not be able to discover it unless he reached a certain level.

If he continued to cultivate it, he would only have realized that something was wrong when he reached the Enlightened Master realm.

However, Dan Qingzi most likely would have made his move before then and would not allow him to discover this.

It was just that after receiving Tian Xingzi's legacy and obtaining Chen Yu's memories, he had essentially become the reincarnation of an Enlightened Master.

As such, he was able to easily see the problems with the Ten Thousand Spirit Foundation.

"You!" Dan Qingzi's voice once again sounded out, this time sounding quite cold.

"No need to waste any words."

Hearing Dan Qingzi's voice, Chen Heng sighed, "Honestly speaking, it's not very comfortable having someone's voice in my head. Let's end things here."

Following this, he walked to the side, where a massive pond had been prepared.

The water was quite special, and it was a silver liquid that looked like iron water.

Looking at this pond, Dan Qingzi's heart thumped and had a bad feeling.
