The Invincible Dragon Emperor

Chapter 395: The End of Heaven Frigid Kingdom

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Madam Yan was put into an important position. She was appointed the counselor, copying the ways at the former Heaven Frigid Kingdom.

Madam Yan actually was not quite good in fights as she was only of the Eternal Realm. That being said, it was not her fighting abilities that Lu Li would be needing. He already had powerful warriors at his service. What he needed Madam Yan for was her resourcefulness and her cruelty.

Madam Yan was nicknamed Black Widow. She had attained perfection in scheming and planning. People would unwittingly walk into her traps and could be killed before they even realized what had happened.

Yu Huashen would deal with all the open attacks, while Madam Yan would focus on secret missions, handling matters that could not be known to the public.

One military and the other civil, the two could form a check and supervision balance. Lu Li trusted Yu Huashen, but as a future emperor, he needed to strike this balance, which was regarded as an expertise emperor must be skilled at by Lu Ling.

Ye Cha and his four patriarchs were more suitable for secret missions. However, the Cyan Phoenix Race had a special identity so Lu Li didn’t plan on using them too much. Ye Cha had been serving with his heart and soul so Lu Li must take their situation into consideration as a return.

The enemies of Ye Cha were too powerful. Once the Palace of Heaven’s Roar and the other parties were informed, the entire Northern Desert could be sent into a bloodbath. If the Cyan Phoenix Race and the Mammoth Race must be destroyed, Lu Li couldn’t alienate himself from it.

Therefore, he named Madam Yan as the counselor in charge of overall planning. In the old days, everything of the Bai Family was handled by Madam Yan. That she could take control of the Thousand-island Lake was a testimony of her abilities.

Lu Li also planned to establish another secret task force led by Ming Yu.

The task force’s role was going to keep tabs on Madam Yan and Yu Huashen. The three sides would supervise each other, which would enable Lu Li to be well at ease.

Madam Yan’s cheeks were rosy in excitement after she was appointed. Bai Leng and the others were uplifted as well. Lu Li truly valued the Bai Family as he had said. Bai Family’s promising future would be just around the corner as long as they served him well.

Madam Yan left with her orders and started planning. Yu Huashen, on the other hand, was getting a bit gloomy to know her appointment. Madam Yan could control him. Even though she wouldn’t be interfering in battles, he still felt there was a sword hanging above his head. Once he had untoward thoughts, both he and the Yu Family would be destroyed.

He once was an overlord, so he knew that Lu Li didn’t do this because of mistrust. This was a balance that a person had to achieve when in power. Yu Huashen put this behind his mind. He decided to put his whole heart into serving Lu Li and winning battles with honor.

The entire Heaven Frigid City was getting busy. It had been days, but there were some Family Patriarchs who had yet to arrive. Those must be loyal to the Du Family and they must be dealt with.

Madam Yan set her hands to planning. What she was considering was not the Heaven Frigid Kingdom, but the entire Northern Desert. There was Heaven Cold Kingdom and the Heaven Martial Kingdom to be conquered. Figuring out how to take those two kingdoms at the least expense was Madam Yan’s mission of priority.

Time was up. Yu Huashen sent out his forces and started to conquer the more than 10 regions that didn’t surrender.

Those regions were all controlled by fourth rank families. Yu Huashen left with another two warriors of the Noble Lord Realm which made this expedition easy. He could conquer every land of the Heaven Frigid Kingdom in 20 days, let alone a month.

…

News spread across the entire Northern Desert. Both Du Zheng and the temple had received Lu Li’s letters.

Du Zheng responded that he would be waiting for Lu Li to have a drink, and he said that Lu Li would have his full support.

The Temple sent over a letter saying that they would stay out of it as long as Lu Li didn’t destroy the temples at each location.

The entire Heaven Cold Kingdom was in a panic. Everyone in the Ye Family was in jittery and at a loss.

The Heaven Martial Kingdom was in a panic as well. The Zi Family was having an internal disagreement. Some accused Lu Li of being cruel and heartless, while others stated that this was a trend not to be reversed. Still, others suggested allying with Heaven Cold Kingdom to fight Lu Li.

Ye Family of the Heaven Cold Kingdom and Wu Family of the Heaven Martial Kingdom were overlords at the Northern Desert. They claimed most of the resources of the two kingdoms.

Once they surrendered to Lu Li, a substantial part of their resources would fall into Lu Li’s hands. How could they develop without the resources? The External Clan warriors would defect as soon as they realized resources were diminishing. The family itself would become weaker and descend into destruction…

Some in the Heaven Cold Kingdom even proposed to go to the Pavilion of Delicacy to say that Lu Li was from the Lu Family and he had breached the agreement between the Royal Families by unifying the Northern Desert.

Later, the Heaven Cold Kingdom did send someone over. However, they found out the Teleportation Formation at the Clouds City was deactivated…

The families at the Heaven Cold Kingdom felt something was wrong. Lu Li had just arrived not long ago, but the Teleportation Formation was deactivated so soon. Did Lu Li bribe the Palace of Peaceful Heavens?

…

Yu Huashen was pressing on with irresistible force while the other two families spent their days in trepidation. Actually, three warriors of the Noble Lord Realm were enough to sweep across the entire Heaven Frigid Kingdom. The armies were unnecessary.

At the Northern Desert and even the Central Plains, powerful warriors could be decisive. If there was a Human Sovereign Realm warrior at the Northern Desert, he could just give out an order without having to make a move, then countless families would go to him. In this case, unifying the Northern Desert would be a piece of cake.

At the Central Plains, the Great Patriarch of, for example, the Lu Family, could conquer any region at ease. The differences in realms could not be made up by the number of warriors.

Yu Huashen killed his way over. All the families that didn’t surrender to Lu Li before were destroyed. He showed no mercy at all.

Some families made a decision to surrender when the armies were bearing down in force. However, it was too late. Lu Li had given them a chance but they didn’t cherish that. They were faced with the ultimate result—death.

In more than 10 days, Yu Huashen had swept across the entire kingdom. All the families that didn’t give in were destroyed.

The Heaven Frigid Kingdom was under new leadership. The Du Family’s trace was erased from this land. The kingdom only had one leader now, Lu Li.

Ye Cha and his patriarchs made a move. They went to the sea at the south of the Heaven Frigid Kingdom and killed all those that wanted to flee to the Central Plains.

On the 18th day, Yu Huashen returned with victory. Madam Yan would take over from here. It was easier to fight than to manage. More than half of the families at the former Heaven Frigid Kingdom surrendered, but some of them might harbor ill intentions.

All the mines, farms, lands and resources needed to be calculated and interests must be re-distributed. Territories had to be divided up. Madam Yan and patriarchs of the Bai Family were as busy as bees.

Lu Li didn’t rush into attacking the other two kingdoms. He had to manage what he had now. It would be meaningless to launch attacks while the rear was unstable.

The others could hardly have any time to sit down, but Lu Li was all beer and skittles. Right now, he was playing the game of go with Lu Feixue and Bai Xiashuang was there as well.

Bai Xiashuang was restless. She would give some advice to Lu Li every now and then, which made her a very bad player. Lu Feixue was almost healed. She didn’t seem to be upset by Bai Xiashuang. Instead, she would throw Bai Xiashuang and Lu Li a look from time to time with a smile.

After a game, Lu Li glared at Bai Xiashuang and said, “Can you be quiet? If it weren’t for you, I would have won.”

“You are a bad player. Why are you blaming me?” Bai Xiashuang replied resentfully with a pout.

Lu Li shook his head. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, “Bai Xiashuang, where is your sister? At the Bai Emperor Mountain?”

Bai Qiuxue was the only one from the Bai Family that wasn’t here. Lu Li thought she was staying at home so he didn’t ask. However, he recalled the game he played with Bai Qiuxue so this scene triggered his curiosity.

“No!”

Bai Xiashuang seemed unhappy. She sighed and said, “My sister has gone into a small world to train. It has been half a year now and I don’t know how she is now.”

“Um…”

Lu Li was moved. Bai Qiuxue was stubborn and crazy as always. She went to a small world on her own. Was she not afraid that she might be killed by some indigenous race in the small world?
