Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, it has been half a year since Ximen Hao broke through the tribulation period.
A lot of things have happened in the past six months. For example, the dwarf clan moved to Haotian Kingdom and owned an independent city.
The migration of the dwarves has shaken up all the major forces in Tianqing. After all, having dwarves means having countless sophisticated equipment.
It's a pity that all this has become Haotian Kingdom, making people envious of Ximen Hao's luck.
Of course, although this is a big event, there is another even bigger thing happening! That is: the Great Qin Empire was split!
Yes, since the Orc War, Great Qin's backbone and elite troops suffered heavy losses, and the major forces within the Qin State launched weapons and wars one after another!
In the current Qin State, in addition to the power of Qin Crown Prince Qin Ya, three more forces have appeared, and there is a vague feeling of the mighty force of the Four Kingdoms.
In this way, the four small countries that were missing after Ximen Hao established the empire became twelve countries again, and the Great Qin Empire disappeared in the long river of history.
The current Qin State is still called Qin State, but it is no longer an empire. Qin Beast also began to retreat to heal his wounds, retreated behind the scenes, and passed the throne to Qin Ya.
The Haotian Kingdom did not respond to the turmoil in the Qin Kingdom, but Ximen Hao still left the twenty communication soldiers who had been temporarily lent to the Qin Kingdom to Qin Ya, which could be regarded as a little help.
He is now an envoy of God. As long as his country is not threatened, it is not convenient for him to take action on many things. Moreover, he has no intention of taking action.
It doesn't matter if the Qin Kingdom is divided, then the threat to the Haotian Kingdom will be much smaller.
The Qin State fell apart and was in complete chaos, but the orcs did not take this opportunity to attack, as if their vitality had been severely damaged by the last battle.
For this reason, Ximen Hao was very disappointed. Although the system had been upgraded, he had no chance to order red envelopes, which made him very anxious.
He even secretly visited the territory of the orcs to find a few orcs to kill.
However, not only did they not find the orcs, they also attracted two divine slaves, Fu Di and Juta, so they had to retreat.
Another half year passed in the blink of an eye, and the situation in the Qin State was basically stable. Four emperors in four directions ascended the throne one after another.
Qin Ya established the Qin State, but it was not an empire, but a new small country, but it was also the strongest among the four kingdoms.
Moreover, due to Ximen Hao's relationship, his territory is closely adjacent to Haotian Kingdom and he is stationed in a section of the fortress.
To the east of the Qin State was the territory of three new countries.
The Yue Kingdom, the Ghost Kingdom, and the Ming Kingdom.
The Yue Kingdom was the former power of Qin Shang. Before Qin Ya could clear it out, it was attacked by orcs, which happened to make these forces secretly collude and rebel.
The Ghost Kingdom was established by the Ghost Clan in the east of the original Great Qin. When the Great Qin was still an empire, the Ghost Clan had suppressed the Ghost Clan in the east for many years. The Ghost Clan had secretly developed its power for many years and finally broke out at this time.
Among these countries, the one that surprised Ximen Hao the most was the Ming Kingdom. He was very familiar with this force. It was Zhuge Qing's family!
The founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty was the old patriarch of the Zhuge clan, Zhuge Mingliang!
The Zhuge family has great influence in the Qin State, and they have been working for the Qin royal family all year round. They play with their brains.
They also saw that the strength of the Qin Empire was exhausted. In order to stop assisting others and become the master, they relied on years of accumulation to establish the Ming Kingdom, which was second only to the Qin Kingdom.
In this regard, Zhuge Qing, deputy district chief of Dayang District and chief of staff of the Military Staff Department under Ximen Hao, stated: His current identity and status were bestowed by Emperor Haotian. Without Haotian Kingdom, he is nothing.
Therefore, not only did he not return to the Zhuge family, but he and his immediate family members went to the Haotian Kingdom to share in the glory.
Of course, the Ming Kingdom didn't even dare to mess with all this. The current Haotian Kingdom, let alone a small country like theirs that had just been founded, even other empires didn't dare to mess with it!
In this year, Haotian Kingdom has added many powerful people.
Although none of his servants have broken through to the Tribulation Stage, many of his Kaiyuns have been promoted to Zhuzhou one after another, and there are even more Kaiyun Stages to count!
Not only that, one of Ximen Hao's ancestors, who was a member of the original Ximen royal family, appeared again and was invited by Ximen Hao to take charge of Haotian City.
Of course, Haotian Kingdom now relies on more than just surviving the tribulation period. Haotian Kingdom's army is already the strongest in Tianqing!
The air force alone has reached 50,000! It happened to be composed of: five battalions of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
The Sun-Tian Iron Cavalry is even more terrifying. Due to the rapid reproduction of the Barbarian Bulls, there are now half a million Sun-Tian Iron Cavalry, all of whom are elites selected by various armies.
With 50,000 air force, 500,000 Sun-Tian cavalry, nearly one million light cavalry, and a large number of special forces, the Haotian Army suddenly became an army that everyone was afraid of!
Therefore, no one dares to provoke Haotian Kingdom now!
Although Ximen Hao didn't open a single red envelope this year, and his cultivation level didn't improve at all, he improved the Haotian Empire as a whole by a big margin!
Not only that, because he had no heirs, he simply changed his strategy and handed over many things to his queens. Even Ji Wubing began to hand over some of his rights.
Ximen Hao's ambition is not just to build an empire, and Ji Wubing's ambition is also not to be a national master of an empire.
Therefore, the current Haotian Kingdom has gradually become the empire of Ximen Hao's harem.
As for the six queens, since they had no chance to educate their children, they devoted themselves to helping Ximen Hao manage the country.
Di Yingying and Luo Li are responsible for the political affairs of the entire empire, managing some daily affairs and finance.
Tie Mulan was in charge of the military, and even took over the position of Chief of Staff of Ji Wubing's Military Staff Department, completely taking control of the military power of the Haotian Kingdom!
Hu Banruo was responsible for the intelligence, and Ji Mengmeng's exquisite heart was responsible for the assistance, and even accepted full authority to guard the Jinyi Guards and Haotian City.
Bai Lian, on the other hand, was developing the White Lotus Way while secretly gathering some people from the world to be used by the Haotian Kingdom.
Not only that, she did not give up her old profession. She would go around among the people when she had nothing to do, and she took responsibility, and for a time she became the greatest mother of the country in the hearts of the people!
And Ximen Hao's nine servants are no longer responsible for his safety. Except for the maids to serve him when he is bored, the rest of the time they are responsible for the safety of Qingtian Tower. After all, this is the center of Haotian Kingdom.
In this way, Haotian Kingdom is developing at an alarming rate, especially since the orcs have not made any movements this year, not even daily small-scale attacks, giving the human race a great chance to breathe.
But everyone knows that this is the calm before the storm. The more it is like this, it means that the orcs are planning a big move.
Of course, it is also possible that a major change occurred to the orcs and they had to stop.
Finally, one day a year later, Ximen Hao's Divine Envoy Order finally lit up, and only the words of Master Changmei came from it: Come to the temple quickly.
Ximen Hao knew that something big was going to happen, so he went to the temple as soon as possible.
