Chapter 940: Chapter 941: As the Empire Grows Strong, So Does He
There is generous treatnt, yet many people can’t believe it. They even suspect in their hearts whether it’s the Huaxia Empire trying to fool them, rely putting on a façade.
After all, they’ve seen such things happen many tis.
Impossible to seize and plunder by force? What a joke. Would the Imperial Army really mobilize for such matters? After taking the benefits and giving the Imperial Army a little piece, wouldn’t everything be solved easily?
Precisely because so people held such thoughts, they indeed snatched away others’ rewards for contribution and prepared to make their escape.
The person who was robbed felt as if the sky had collapsed. He was nearing the end of his life span. If he successfully cultivated the Cultivation Technique he earned, it would extend his life, as it was a life-saving technique.
In the end, it was snatched away without reason.
It’s worth knowing that he exchanged his years’-worth of savings to acquire such a Cultivation Technique.
While he was at his wit’s end, he rembered he could file a report with the authorities and seek help from the Imperial Army.
He clearly rembered that after he reported the case at the authorities, the officer ticulously recorded everything he described, including the identity, characteristics, and Realm of the person who took his technique.
After recording everything, they told him to leave and wait for news.
To be honest, he himself was doubtful. Could they truly solve this problem for him?
Even after he left the authorities, acquaintances who knew about the matter laughed and advised him.
“Old Man Jiang, I advise you not to get your hopes up too high.”
“Exactly, back then he just snatched your Cultivation Technique and severely injured you. It was a blessing not to die.”
“Trying to get it back is easier said than done.”
Speaking of which, Old Man Jiang sighed himself, never thinking this would succeed, seeking only a bit of consolation.
However, three days later, when Old Man Jiang was about to go out to see if he could join a Soul Beast hunting team to earn rit and salary, he received a Communication asking him to go to the authorities.
As he stepped into the authorities, Old Man Jiang saw the officer who received him previously.
“Mr. Jiang, this is the Heavenly Grade Lower Level Cultivation Technique you exchanged initially,” the officer stood up and handed it to him upon seeing Old Man Jiang enter, “Also, you need to imprint your Spiritual Sense here to confirm that the technique has been recovered. This matter is now concluded.”
After completing everything as guided by the officer, Old Man Jiang walked out of the authorities in a daze, lost, as if everything were still a dream.
Originally, when he reported the case, Old Man Jiang was just trying his luck. He never expected his Cultivation Technique could actually be recovered.
Moreover, he inquired about how the person who stole his technique would be punished.
The conversation seed to still echo in his ears.
“He committed intentional robbery and severely injured you back then. It could be considered attempted murder, so naturally, he must be executed in public to serve as a warning to others. His Majesty decrees that the Empire’s laws clearly state there shall be no seizing and plundering by force or killing and stealing, yet it seems many still consider the Empire’s laws a joke.”
Another seven days later, the central square in Old Man Jiang’s city was already crowded with people.
People ca to this place to take a closer look at the thief about to be executed in public.
Old Man Jiang’s Heavenly Grade Lower Level Cultivation Technique being stolen was well known in the city because he was not only a World Realm expert but also a millennium-old elder at the end of his lifespan.
Everyone knew Old Man Jiang’s life force was exhausted, his battle power weakened. If he couldn’t break through the Realm or find so age-extending Pill treasures, he would likely pass away.
Hence, the matter of his technique being stolen was known to all, garnering sympathy and sighed misfortune.
No one expected, in the end, the thief would indeed be captured by the Imperial Army, and Old Man Jiang’s technique was truly returned to him.
“Look, Old Man Jiang’s Realm has broken through!”
“He’s already in the Creation Realm. Our Xinsiluocheng finally has another Creation Realm expert.”
“The Realm seems unstable, yet he’s co here.”
“It’s clear he wants to witness how the thief who stole his technique would be executed.”
At this mont, everyone looked at the spirited old man approaching, discussing him.
This old man was, of course, Old Man Jiang, whose once gray hair was now glossy, neatly bound at the back, his skin as tender as a newborn’s.
Old Man Jiang looked at the scaffold in the central square, where a middle-aged man, remorseful, his eyes full of despair and fear, was standing.
He was a Ninth Level World Realm expert, but his lifespan was only about eight thousand years. In the heavens and myriad worlds, he was considered very young.
Yet now, he was about to be publicly executed.
“His Majesty once said, labor creates wealth. In the Empire, so long as you put in the effort, Heavenly Grade techniques aren’t difficult to obtain.”
“It’s been rely three years since the Sea Spiral Star Domain battle, yet among the Empire’s newcors, millions have already obtained Heavenly Grade techniques through their labor and effort. Another three years, and then three again, and eventually, Heavenly Grade techniques will spread throughout the Empire.”
“But you, seeking ease, forcibly seized and robbed, even attempting to kill Jiang Yuan, taking away the Cultivation Technique he exchanged with his millennium accumulations. Utter disgrace.”
“According to the Empire’s laws, execution without rcy, proceed with the execution!”
The head fell, the soul perished.
Quietly, the onlookers watched in silence, observing solemnly.
No one had anticipated that everything the Empire said was no idle talk; it was all true.
This situation was not unique to this Xinsiluocheng; it was happening all across the Sea Spiral Star Domain.
Deterring imitators, nurous people who had initially entertained stirring ideas stopped their thoughts.
Moreover, reconstructing the Sea Spiral Star Domain into the vision within Lin Qian’s plan required significant manpower.
Lin Qian had no intention of solely relying on units from Xuanhuan Star. Ideally, everyone would use their own hands to build the empire they reside in.
Letting them participate in constructing their empire’s future bit by bit.
Opportunities abound, with generous returns, naturally encouraging everyone to use their hands to build their dreams.
Cultivation Techniques, Potions, Soul Devices? In Lin Qian’s eyes, these were the most useless batch of things from Xuanhuan Star, piled up in warehouses serving no purpose.
Resources, only when utilized and consud, can be called resources; otherwise, they are waste.
Lin Qian wasn’t a saint, generously spreading wealth and distributing treasures.
The Huaxia Empire was his strongest treasure, and the resources and effort he spent were ant to continuously refine and strengthen his Empire.
Strong Empire, strong he becos!
