Chapter 256

The faint words echoed across the heavens, and everyone’s eyes instinctively widened, filled with disbelief.

Temujin? Who was he?

This was the Great Khan of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty, the King of the Steppes!

The Mongol Yuan Dynasty was among the most powerful dynasties in the entire Nine Provinces. And now, Ning Changge demanded this dynasty’s ruler present his head in apology? The implications were extraordinary!

This meant declaring all-out war against the Mongol Yuan!

Everyone was stunned, horror filling their eyes. Their hearts pounded uncontrollably, mouths dry. The news was simply too earth-shattering.

Xiongba stared wide-eyed, a hint of reverence silently appearing.

A mere Jianghu sect declaring war on a dynasty—what unmatched dominance!

His heart filled with longing. Wasn’t this his lifelong ambition? To develop his forces, eventually integrate the Central Plains, and finally contend with dynasties? But now, he saw this very grandeur embodied by Wudang ahead of time.

Ning Changge’s sheer audacity captivated him.

This power-hungry tyrant, who had never truly submitted to anyone, felt genuine admiration. Previously, he was awed by Ning Changge’s strength and methods. Now, he was humbled by Ning Changge’s ambition.

Most Jianghu experts felt similarly.

Those who already admired Ning Changge admired him even more. Those who were previously indifferent now had complex feelings in their eyes.

Declaring war on a dynasty…

Looking across the Nine Provinces, how many possessed such courage and vision?

Bai Qi and Wang Jian subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air. Fwoosh!

Their eyes widened in disbelief.

As generals of a dynasty, they knew the true power of a dynasty better than anyone, which made this even more inconceivable. Previously, they thought Ning Changge, having annihilated the million-strong Heavenly Wolf Army, had become mortal enemies with the Mongol Yuan, and they even felt some schadenfreude for the latter.

But they never imagined…

Ning Changge’s audacity far exceeded their expectations.

Going to the Mongol Yuan imperial capital to behead the King of the Steppes!

Just thinking about it felt incredible. Bai Qi was already a figure whose killing intent reached the heavens, but even he only dared to dream of such a scenario. Perhaps one day, if the Great Qin crushed the Mongol Yuan army, he might have a chance.

But for Ning Changge to declare it openly before the world—that was entirely different.

Ning Changge looked around indifferently.

He knew…

Mongol Yuan spies must still be lurking among the crowd. He couldn’t be bothered to root them out one by one.

He would go to the Mongol Yuan imperial capital.

Openly, without concealment.

So what if they had time to prepare?

Ning Changge would use this opportunity to kill the chicken and scare the monkey!

It was also a formal demonstration of the Immortal Dao’s might to the world, paving the way for spreading its teachings later. He hadn’t cared about the dynasties’ prying eyes before.

Firstly, their actions were minor disturbances that didn’t affect his cultivation, mere ants hopping about. Secondly, his strength hadn’t reached its current level back then; opposing an entire nation single-handedly would have required considerable effort.

But now…

The Mongol Yuan Dynasty’s actions had crossed Ning Changge’s bottom line.

If he didn’t make a trip…

Would the world think Wudang could be bullied by anyone?!

The Immortal Method he, Ning Changge, created could only be passed down by him. Anyone harboring ulterior motives would die!

Simply annihilating the million-strong Heavenly Wolf Army wasn’t enough. Ning Changge would make the Mongol Yuan pay an irreversible price.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his figure elegant. All gazes upon him were filled with deep reverence.

Ning Changge glanced towards the direction of the Great Qin’s Ren Tu Army, then turned and led the Wudang members back to Tianzhu Peak. A gentle breeze blew, yet where the vast Heavenly Wolf Army had stood, not a single trace remained, leaving everyone aghast.

Everyone watched the retreating figures of Wudang with complex emotions.

“Do you think… the Little Immortal can really destroy the Mongol capital?”

Someone couldn’t help but murmur, breaking the silence.

“At this point, you still doubt the Little Immortal’s strength? Do you think the annihilation of the million-strong Heavenly Wolf Army was just our hallucination?”

“That’s not it… It’s just, the Little Immortal relied somewhat on the power of the Circumventing Stars Formation Sword Array earlier.”

“Now, trying to destroy the Mongol capital is a different level of difficulty.”

“The Mongol Yuan imperial capital is their main base. The Great Khan is a peak expert of the Imperial Dao. The forces guarding the capital likely aren’t inferior to the million-strong Heavenly Wolf Army. Can the Little Immortal succeed alone, without the formation’s support?”

“You have a point, but I believe the Little Immortal wouldn’t act rashly. Since he declared he’s going to the Mongol Yuan imperial capital, he must have the confidence and means.”

“Indeed, the Little Immortal’s methods are heaven-defying. The Mongol Yuan Dynasty is likely in big trouble this time.”

“Even if the Little Immortal can’t destroy the Mongol Yuan imperial capital, he’ll at least make them suffer greatly. Killing Temujin might be unlikely, but the Mongol Yuan will likely lose hundreds of thousands more elite soldiers!”

“After the Little Immortal, perhaps the era is about to change!”

…

Discussions erupted, everyone filled with emotion and awe.

One person against a nation!

If Ning Changge could truly force the Mongol Yuan to bow its head single-handedly…

Then the Nine Provinces might enter a new era—the Era of the Immortal Dao!

In ancient times…

The Nine Provinces flourished with martial arts, sects standing tall.
