Necropolis Immortal

nce on His Majesty’s behalf.

The coming days were idyllic in their peacefulness.

Lu Yun didn’t do much to intentionally gather goodwill.
In the eyes of his people, he was still the same ol’ supreme bastard—the kind that did nothing but villainy all day long.
If he suddenly did anything out of the ordinary, not only would he not be able to collect goodwill, but it’d backfire and he’d only draw the wrong kind of karma.

……

Fifteen days from the governor’s reselection, something momentous happened in Dusk Province.
What was sunny and clear blue skies just a second ago abruptly darkened as a bank of stormy clouds rolled in to blot out the entire sky.

A calamitous wave picked up on the North Sea, pushing infinitely close to the seaside stronghold.
Countless monster spirits were gathered by the wave—innumerable golden, arcane, and peerless immortals among them.

In the heart of the governor’s residence, Lu Yun and Qing Han stood side by side atop Mooncatcher Tower, gazing into the north.

“They’re finally here,” the governor said with a frown.

There was no way the North Sea court would accept the disappearance of their king outside the human stronghold.
Moreover, competition within the province over the ancient lord’s heritage was truly heating up.
The other regions in the world of immortals had no reason or energy to interfere, but the disappearance of one of their kings gave the North Sea monsters the perfect excuse.

“Return the King of Southern Subjugation or all of Dusk Province will be flooded! Our destruction will be mutual!” A deafening voice echoed across the province, causing innumerable lives to raise their heads with shock.

“Return our king!”

“Return our king!”

“Return our king!”

The land trembled beneath the chorus, even as the tidal wave reached the stronghold’s walls.
The North Sea emperor didn’t dare step foot on Dusken earth, but he could and would drown it in an overwhelming deluge! The province’s restriction against golden immortals was powerless against the encroaching water.

“Your King of Southern Subjugation is already dead.
What d’you want me to do about it?” Up in Mooncatcher Tower, Lu Yun snorted in derision at the northern sky.
His modest voice was broadcast to the entire province through the provincial seal.

The humans of the province were astounded by this revelation: the North Sea King of Southern Subjugation, the giant that had a constant eye on invading the province, was dead?

A wave of impromptu cheering washed through the citizenry.

Dusk Province and North Sea monster spirits were longtime mortal enemies of each other.
Beigong Zhen, the King of Southern Subjugation, was every person’s nightmare.

Dusk Province was a fairly barren place; the North Sea wasn’t much better off, but it was considerably better-endowed than its terran neighbor.
Dusk Province cultivators often explored the sea for natural resources.
Alas, the King of Southern Subjugation, that great blackwater snake, patrolled the sea like an inexorable guardian.

The human cultivators were overjoyed to hear that their number one threat in the sea was finally gone, despite the monster spirit emperor that was currently threatening the northern border.

I don’t get it.
I’m the one who dealt with that king.
Why is the goodwill from that headed to the south?

As the owner of the Sal Tree sapling, Lu Yun could visibly see the streams of karma.
Rather than coming to him, they flew to the south… where the Nephrite capital was.
Evidently, Dusk Province’s inhabitants attributed the beneficial feat to their emperor’s work.

“If you cannot return our king, then let Dusk Province… be destroyed!”

Boom!

An explosion ripped through the void as a mountain of water displaced the air and the surging wave crashed down upon the seaside stronghold with crushing force.
