Xinger's eyes curved into crescent moons, she was very happy in her heart.
"Xinger, Big Brother will give you a playmate."
Ye Xingchen took out the jade seal and released the white cat inside.
The white cat's body was snow white, its sparkling fur was shining, its blue eyes were as deep as the sea, full of spirituality.
It was released from the jade seal's space by Ye Xingchen, disturbing its sleep, it was dissatisfied, it shouted at Ye Xingchen: "Meow, how dare you, Ye Xingchen, you dare to disturb my sleep, hurry up and take out a bottle, no, ten bottles, no, a hundred bottles for me."
"So cute, such a beautiful kitten." Xinger saw Xiao Bai, her eyes lit up, she hugged Xiao Bai in her arms.
"How dare, a mere human, you dare …"
Xiao Bai struggled, when its eyes met Xinger's eyes, what it saw was not a cute little girl, but an eternal darkness. In the darkness, a blurry shadow quietly stood there, this blurry shadow was very large, it was as if it could fill up the heavens.
Xiao Bai was instantly scared to the point of shivering, it screamed, jumped out of Xinger's arms, ran behind Ye Xingchen, its front paws hugged his pants, and carefully peeked at Xinger.
When Xinger's pure and innocent eyes looked over, she revealed a sweet smile, but Xiao Bai looked as if it had seen a demon from hell, it hurriedly hid behind Ye Xingchen's pants, its body trembling.
"That, Ye Xingchen, I am tired, I want to go back to sleep, goodbye, I don't want the hundred bottles," Xiao Bai hurriedly said, it wanted to return to the jade seal.
Too scary, how could there be such a scary existence in the world.
Ye Xingchen felt that Xiao Bai was strange, he grabbed Xiao Bai, stuffed it into Xinger's arms and said: "Xiao Bai, from today on, you will accompany Xinger, play with her."
"Big brother, it is called Xiao Bai, right?"
Xinger touched Xiao Bai's sparkling fur, said: "Xiao Bai, don't worry, I will treat you well."
"Meow, meow, meow, I want to go back, Ye Xingchen, you can't be ungrateful, you can't burn the bridge after crossing the river, you can't hit me when I'm down, you can't help me, you can't repay kindness with enmity." Xiao Bai shouted.
"Xiao Bai, you have to be obedient, don't scold big brother, or else Xinger will be angry." Xinger lightly stroked Xiao Bai, said softly.
"Xinger, maybe Xiao Bai is not used to it, it will get used to it after a period of time, with Xiao Bai accompanying you, I can also be at ease," Ye Xingchen said.
Xiao Bai was scared, it lay motionless in Xinger's arms, like a corpse.
Ye Xingchen accompanied Xinger for the next half a month.
After he accompanied Xinger, he went back to deal with the state affairs.
The Daheng dynasty had not been established for long, there were many things to do in the dynasty, everything needed to be planned and developed.
The Ministry of Works had already designed identity tokens according to Assistant Minister of Revenue Li Shiming's request, and Li Shiming had also sent messengers to the various counties of the dynasty to gather information.
The nine divisions of the army were also roughly established, Ye Xingchen exchanged many spirit visualization methods from the system and sent them out to increase their strength.
In addition, the Ministry of Rites was also holding an imperial examination to select talents and strengthen the Daheng dynasty's official system.
The prime minister and the hundreds of officials were handling the state affairs, so Ye Xingchen only needed to grasp the general direction.
Ye Xingchen returned to the depths of the palace, released the Eternal Azure Heavenly Wood, and continued to refine this extraordinary item.
In the process, his cultivation base had unknowingly risen to half-step Middle Arcana Realm.
At this moment, he was only one step away from Middle Arcana Realm, and could break through at any time.
Other than the main materials, Ye Xingchen had already gathered the supplementary materials to cultivate the first part of the Eternal Heaven Scroll, the Primordial Golden Seal.
For the time being, he couldn't exchange for the three main materials, the Gilded Liquid, the Dao Flower, and the Yin and Yang Qi.
He had already condensed 66,666 Moon Jade Runes and successfully condensed the Moon Jade Body.
However, it was too difficult and dangerous to fuse the two Dharma Forms into one, so Ye Xingchen hadn't done so yet.
While Ye Xingchen was in seclusion, the battle between Dai Heng and the Blackwater Dynasty intensified. The First Army and the Black Water Army fought in Ping Commandery, and it was a lively scene.
While Wang Tianmeng was holding up Ji Tianming, Zhuge Xuan took down another commandery of the Blackwater Dynasty.
When the Blackwater King heard the news, he was furious. He ordered the Black Mist Army, Black Snake Army, and Black Mountain Army of the Blackwater Dynasty to head to the border to meet up with the Black Water Army. He wanted to destroy Dai Heng's army in one fell swoop.
The battle started unexpectedly. When Zhuge Xuan learned that the other three armies of the Blackwater Dynasty were coming, he mobilized all the troops of the First Army to attack the other three armies.
Wang Tianmeng didn't want to be outdone. He mobilized his army to fight Ji Tianming to the death.
Ji Tianming couldn't have asked for more, so the entire Black Water Army left the city and headed to the battlefield.
However, he didn't expect Wang Tianmeng to use the puppet soldiers to besiege Ji Tianming's army. Although Ji Tianming fought his way out, he was seriously injured, and the Black Water Army was almost annihilated.
On the other hand, the Black Mountain Army, Black Mist Army, and Black Snake Army clashed with the First Army of the Daheng dynasty, and a fierce battle broke out.
Zhuge Xuan mobilized the troops of the Nine Divisions and cooperated with the First Army, causing the three armies to suffer heavy losses.
The four armies of the Blackwater Dynasty were defeated, and the Daheng dynasty's territory was pushed forward by 3,000 Li.
Another thing worth mentioning was that when the Beastman Dynasty and the Dynasty of Blood saw the defeat of the Blackwater Dynasty, they were afraid and sent messengers to Dai Heng to make peace.
When Ye Xingchen heard the news, he came out of seclusion.
In the Lingxiao Palace, Ye Xingchen sat on the throne and looked at the messengers of the two dynasties calmly.
"King of Heng, our King is willing to make peace with Dai Heng. In order to show our sincerity, our King is willing to pay a million Spiritual Crystals to Dai Heng every year."
"King of Heng, our King is also willing to make peace and pay a million Spiritual Crystals to Dai Heng."
The messengers of the two dynasties said respectfully.
The Kings of the two dynasties were indeed afraid. Even the four armies of the Blackwater Dynasty were defeated, and the Blackwater Dynasty's Great General Ji Tianming fled back to the Blackwater Imperial City.
If they started a war with Dai Heng, they wouldn't fare any better than the Blackwater Dynasty. They might even face annihilation.
"Oh, a million Spiritual Crystals. Your King is really generous," Ye Xingchen said calmly.
The two messengers' hearts sank. They could hear the dissatisfaction in Ye Xingchen's tone.
"King of Heng, if you have any other requests, just tell us. We will report it to our King," the messenger of the Dynasty of Blood said with a fake smile.
At this time, Prime Minister Wang Shanpu stood up and said, "Your King, the Dynasty of Blood and the Beastman Dynasty are sincere in making peace. Our Daheng dynasty has always been a good neighbor. We can talk about this."
Ye Xingchen nodded, signaling for the court to be dismissed.
In the Imperial Study, Ye Xingchen looked at Wang Shanpu and said with a smile, "What you said in the court today is the truth."
Wang Shanpu said with a smile, "Your King, the Beastman Dynasty and the Dynasty of Blood are ambitious. They are only afraid after seeing the Blackwater Dynasty lose. That's why they came to make peace."
