Chapter 1448: Chapter 248: Because I Am the Prophet!
This matter is quite simple.
Recently, Ian has not been in the Xiawei Territory, and Scott along with Elder Mantle each manage the Empire Domain and the Supre Spirit Sect of the Mountain People, naturally leading to divergences in their developnt.
After all, neither of them are the Dragon God’s Emissary.
Furthermore, for so unknown reason, videos related to “Mahdi” and the “Dark Gold Dragon” have been sent to the Xiawei Territory.
Though there are so differences, the Dark Gold Dragon definitely resembles the Qing Steel Dragon.
This depiction, coupled with the legends circulating among the Mountain People before Ian took control, led a considerable number of them to believe that this was a sign of the Dragon God’s imminent return.
Between the returning Dragon God and the Dragon God’s Emissary, who is the real leader?
This question naturally arises.
Ian had actually already guessed the origin of this legend… Undoubtedly, it was the Qing Steel Dragon itself. Who else could it be?
This dragon once had a great battle with the Icefog Dragon, where both exchanged territories; the Icefog Dragon remained at the Great Snow Peak of the Bison Mountain Range, while the Qing Steel Dragon stayed in the Crystal Cave beneath the Exotic Species Research Institute.
Before its death, the Qing Steel Dragon had a conversation with The Last Echo, entrusting it with using its flesh and blood to create the “Dark Gold Dragon”, then returning to the Bison Mountain Range to announce its return and victory.
This was probably a joke the Qing Steel Dragon intended to play on the Mountain People: I’m dead! Hey! I’m alive again!
But this joke, stretching over four centuries, has long ceased to be the True Dragon’s final humor and has beco a great crisis capable of causing sectarian splits.
“The Qing Steel Dragon should bow to , as I not only have to take care of the Mountain People but also deal with the enormous ss it left behind… It truly is irresponsible!”
Thinking of this, Ian couldn’t help but grit his teeth: “These people are really just too idle, but fortunately, it’s manageable.”
After all, whether it’s Mahdi or the Dark Gold Dragon, they are now in his hands.
Even if an irreconcilable conflict arises between the Mountain People faction and the Empire faction, he could directly dispatch Mahdi and the Dark Gold Dragon, announcing that he, the “Dragon God’s Emissary,” is the true representative responsible for enlightening all people in God’s stead.
As for the Dark Gold Dragon, it’s rely a descendant of God, and Ian can fully represent both the Qing Steel Dragon and the dragon offspring.
Thus forming a trinity of the Dragon God, the Dragon God’s offspring, and the Dragon God’s Emissary, completely incorporating the entire Dragon God belief into the Supre Spirit Sect.
But to put it bluntly, it’s all because they’re idle… These mountain people really have nothing better to do than to stir up heresy.
“Next ti I make an appearance, I’ll have to properly educate those mountain people.”
Ian said in a deep voice: “The education of the new generation of Mountain People must also be prioritized. The Dragon God can exist as a cultural totem but should no longer be involved within the Supre Spirit Sect and the Xiawei Territory.”
“Scott, make arrangents to invite the oldest Mountain Folk Priests; I need to ‘hold a eting’ with them, to let them know that in the Dragon God’s absence, I, as the emissary, am the only representative.”
“Understood, my lord.”
Scott imdiately agreed, but after thinking for a mont, he cautiously said: “However, my lord, there have been so discordant voices recently within the Mountain People, saying that in the past even the Dragon God’s Emissary had to consult with the chieftains of each tribe to make decisions.”
“What you are doing now… is actually dictatorship.”
“Dictatorship?”
Ian was initially a bit angry, but hearing this, he instead showed a sudden look of understanding. He sighed and said: “This is the work of spies from Fiery Fla Land… We are the Empire, dictatorship is self-evidently justified, it’s only in the Alliance system of Fiery Fla Land that such things are considered negative.”
“Mahdi and the Dark Gold Dragon’s images were probably also spread by them, weren’t they? These people, upon knowing I am the Prophet, have stopped conducting infiltration sabotage and instead started employing these sneaky tactics.”
He spoke thus, but sotis, these little tactics are more troubleso than direct sabotage and combat… Internal division is always more terrifying than external enemies.
“Tell those tribal chieftains who accuse of dictatorship.”
Resolutely, Ian waved his hand: “I will not discuss democratic consensus with a group of people who cannot even provide their own food. I am the Prophet, I can see the future. If they don’t have another prophet, and if they don’t want to die, they’d better listen to .”
“Understood, my lord.”
All these are actually trivial matters, disruptions occurring during Ian’s absence, and as long as Ian is present, no one would dare speak such words.
But this also indicates that Ian’s control over the Mountain People has not yet fully matured.
When Ian beca the Dragon God’s Emissary, he was too weak, thus failing to establish substantial authority at that ti, though he led the Mountain People in repelling Fiery Fla Land, people believed primarily in his wisdom, not his strength.
It’s necessary to find an opportunity to flex so muscle… Additionally, the Supre Spirit Sect should also showcase so of its ‘unique’ aspects, distinctly differentiating it from the Dragon God faith of the Mountain People.
Thinking to himself, Ian began listening to Green Tide recount military construction developnts in the Xiawei Territory.
Before becoming an Earl, Ian already had the organization of an Armored Squad and an independent regint.
Additionally, as a Baron, he could also form a Militia and a Guard Squad to ensure territorial security.
The military construction of the Xiawei Territory currently prioritizes quality over quantity, with economic developnt taking precedence.
