Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

```

Ge Zheng and Teng Yi.

To Xiao Yi, those two were nothing more than annoying flies, easily crushed with a flick of his hand.

He didn't consider them worthy of attention.

After dealing with Teng Yi, Xiao Yi headed to Jing Mountain alone.

Jing Mountain was the training ground for the Four Symbols Legion.

In the past ten days of recruitment, the numbers had already reached a staggering one million, with more soldiers from the Four Symbols Legion still being transported to Jing Mountain from all directions.

Gu Junhe and Yu Huaxian were stationed at Jing Mountain, in charge of the legion's training.

Particularly, the twenty thousand Azure Dragon Guards under Yu Huaxian's command were all valiant warriors refined from the ferocious battles within the Golden Crow Guards. Yu Huaxian scattered them among the Four Symbols Legion to supervise and train these new recruits. The effect was extremely apparent, and in just a few days, the Four Symbols Legion had begun to take shape.

At the very least, they looked like an army with strict military discipline.

Of course... Continue reading at empire

This was also inseparable from Xiao Yi's involvement.

The Four Symbols Legion was Xiao Yi's own force, with people joining in admiration of his name, naturally not wanting to tarnish his reputation.

Inside the central military tent.

Gu Junhe and Yu Huaxian looked at Xiao Yi with befuddled expressions, "What did you say? A million monster beasts?"

Xiao Yi nodded, "I've ordered that a million monster beasts be brought to Jing Mountain within half a month. You two will be responsible for coordinating and arranging them when the time comes!"

"Damn, an army of a million monster beasts! The Great Jin Kingdom once attempted to build a monster beast cavalry as well, but due to overwhelming costs, they could only maintain about fifty thousand... that was already claimed to be the foremost army under the heavens of Great Qian. I never thought we could actually create a million-strong monster beast cavalry..." Yu Huaxian's delicate face was filled with deep shock.

Gu Junhe nodded earnestly, "I'm already impatient to see what expressions they'll have when we deploy our million-strong monster beast army in front of the Great Jin Kingdom!"

Monster beasts are incredibly difficult to tame.

Even after taming them, the cost of maintaining a single monster beast is colossal.

Even a country with the might of the Great Jin Kingdom can't support too many monster beast cavalry units.

But Xiao Yi was different; his million-strong monster beast cavalry could simply be led back to Nanhuang by Huang Bo after the battle, without worrying about unsustainable expenses.

Xiao Yi asked, "Are there any issues with the training of the Four Symbols Legion?"

Gu Junhe shook his head, "With Yu Huaxian's Extreme Training Skill and the elixirs provided by Elder Xue, everything is proceeding smoothly, without any problems."

Yu Huaxian added, "We estimate that the Four Symbols Legion will be able to form combat capability within a month!"

"Hmm!"

Xiao Yi was very confident in the two of them. He then inquired, "Any news from the Great Jin Kingdom?"

Yu Huaxian nodded, "I was just about to discuss this with you... Elder Yan from Treasure Pavilion came to see us yesterday. According to the information passed through the pavilion, the Great Jin Kingdom has dispatched one hundred thousand Golden Crow Guards and a million-strong army. They are led by the Minister of War, Qin Yu, and it will take them about two more months to reach the border!"

"Qin Yu?"

They had already predicted the military force the Great Jin Kingdom would send, and the numbers were close. Xiao Yi was more interested in this commander, "What about him?"

Fear flashed in Yu Huaxian's eyes as he said in a grave tone, "His cultivation is at the Seventh Layer of the Tao Tribulation Realm, and there are rumors he possesses the Blood Demon Battle Body, second only to the top ten holy lands, making him extremely tough to deal with."

"Seventh Layer of the Tao Tribulation Realm peak? Blood Demon Battle Body? Then his combat strength should be comparable to the Eighth, or even Ninth Layer of the Tao Tribulation Realm..."

```

Xiao Yi stroked his chin, pondering, "Indeed, he's a formidable adversary!"

He was now at the thirty-fifth ring of the Golden Core realm.

Comparable to the Third Layer of the Tao Tribulation Realm, with the enhancement of the Wind Thunder Holy Body and the Divine Enthronement power, he could rival the power of a Seventh Layer Tao Tribulation Realm expert.

This Qin Yu was at the peak of the Seventh Layer of the Tao Tribulation Realm himself, and possessed the Blood Demon Battle Body. With Xiao Yi's current strength, if he clashed with him, his odds of victory were less than fifty percent.

"Dean, Yu Huaxian, I have some elemental stones here, you two divide them up!"

Xiao Yi left a portion of elemental stones for each of them.

They did not have God Sealing Seeds, and they weren't practicing a heaven-defying cultivation technique like the Divine Enthronement Heaven Subduing Skill, so their speed and efficiency in absorbing elemental stones were far less than Xiao Yi's.

The number of elemental stones he gave them was enough for them to cultivate for a half month at least, and they could possibly increase by a minor realm.

The two looked at the elemental stones in their hands, exchanging glances, "Where did you find these elemental stones?"

Among them were even two top-grade elemental stones.

These were treasures beyond price!

Xiao Yi laughed heartily, recounted the news of the mineral vein, which earned him their envious looks, "You truly are a child of fortune!"

Xiao Yi simply shrugged, "Among these are some lower and middle-grade stones, suitable for Golden Core realm experts to use. See which Golden Core realm experts in the army could use them." He then prepared another two portions of elemental stones, "These two are for you to kindly deliver to Elder Xue and Elder Jiang on my behalf!"

Jiang Weisheng's injuries had not yet healed, but with the aid of elemental stones, he would surely be able to recover before the arrival of the Great Jin Kingdom, and he might even make further progress in his cultivation.

Gu Junhe nodded and said, "Xiao Yi, you're planning to go into seclusion, aren't you?"

"Yes!"

Xiao Yi spoke solemnly, "With my current strength, I'm still insufficient to face the top experts of the Great Jin Kingdom!"

Gu Junhe said, "Then you can go to the Tianqi Martial Arts Academy, their cultivation chambers are always vacant!"

He was naturally referring to the old site of the Tianqi Martial Arts Academy.

Xiao Yi hummed in affirmation; he had already planned to retreat to the cultivation chambers of Tianqi Martial Arts Academy to break through to higher realms, "The management of the Four Symbols Legion is in your hands now!"

"It's all for the Tianqing Kingdom!" the two said in unison.

After discussing a bit more, Xiao Yi then set off.

He was really too busy now.

Since returning from Iron Mountain City, he had gone to the sky prison, then arrived at Jing Mountain, and now he was heading to the Tianqi Martial Arts Academy.

He was practically non-stop.

Gu Junhe sighed softly, watching as Xiao Yi disappeared, "He keeps himself so busy, probably also to avoid having idle moments that would make him remember every bit and detail about Qingzhu..."

It could be said that Gu Junhe had watched Xiao Yi and Fang Qingzhu grow up step by step, respecting and admiring each other, until they were ultimately forced to part.

Yu Huaxian said solemnly, "With Xiao's talent and strength, one day he will become the most paramount being under these stars. And then, no one in this world will be able to stop him from being with Miss Qingzhu!"

These days, he too had heard quite a bit about Xiao Yi from Gu Junhe.

And he admired him even more for it.

Every time Xiao Yi's talent was mentioned, Gu Junhe couldn't help but nod in agreement, "You're right, with his talent, in the future under these stars, he will surely be the most dazzling existence. He might even become like the resplendent sun at high noon..."
