Next ca the Halberd-Bearer Official, the tips of the halberds gleaming coldly like a forest, as twelve Dragon Banners fluttered loudly in the wind, with golden embroidered coiled dragons shimring in the morning sun.
As the Yellow Luo Umbrella appeared at last, the cheers of the populace surged like tidal waves.
The Emperor is present!
Leaving the Imperial City marks the exit from the range of the Xuanqiong Supre True Dragon Array; here, Qin Ziheng is no different from an ordinary person.
Yet today, he sat serenely atop the Dragon Carriage, with the Sun and Moon Mountain Pattern on his Dragon Robe resplendent in colors, the Nine-Stread White Jade Bead gently swaying before his forehead.
Now surveying the East Continent, the Da Lan Dynasty has no rivals!
And with Qin Ziheng's trusted ministers nearby, the empire's mightiest forces are within reach; naturally, he is carefree.
Today, Li Fei, Wenren Zheng, the Sky Blue Cavalry, the White Fla Army, and the Green Frost Army all return to court!
The voice of the Ceremonial Officer rings through the clouds:
"Your Majesty personally greets the royal army—"
Dust clouds in the distance drew nearer, gradually revealing the outline of the Mystic Armor Army.
In the forefront were cavalryn, both n and horses clad in armor, the sky blue armor sparkling brightly beneath the sun.
The Sky Blue Cavalry marched at the head, banners unfurling in the wind, followed respectively by the White Fla Army and the Green Frost Army.
Since the establishnt of the Da Lan Dynasty over five hundred years ago, among the Four Imperial Camp Armies, apart from the Sky Blue Cavalry, the other three have always guarded the frontier, such a sight of bringing the three Imperial Camp Armies together in the Capital is unprecedented!
The march of this triumphant army was orderly, the clashing of armor echoed with a tallic sound, yet the footsteps of tens of thousands only ford the sound of rolling thunder.
Three riders led the formation, at the center was Grand Marshal Wenren Zheng, on the left was Duke Jing'an Li Fei, and on the right, clad in a Daoist robe with a powerful presence, was Sect Leader Tai Yu of the Daluo Sect.
The three dismounted first, arriving before the Emperor's procession.
"Your Majesty, we have fulfilled the mission entrusted to us, annihilated the West Pole Country, conquered its cities, destroyed its mountains and temples, and obliterated Pudu Temple!"
Wenren Zheng bowed, speaking with a resonant voice.
Qin Ziheng personally dismounted from the Dragon Carriage, stepped forward, supporting Wenren Zheng with one hand and Li Fei with the other, laughing aloud:
"My national pillars have returned!"
The Emperor's voice was not loud but clearly spread all around.
Instantly, the city was filled with earth-shattering cheers, petals rained down from the city walls, bells and drums sounded in unison—
"Mighty—!"
"Mighty—!"
"Mighty—!"
First, the Forbidden Army within the city shouted, followed by the citizens inside, also shouting aloud.
Finally, the tens of thousands of victorious Imperial Camp soldiers together shouted.
The cries shook the heavens and clouds!
The golden sunlight cast the shadow of the Emperor's chariot long, intertwined with the flags of the triumphant soldiers.
Qin Ziheng looked towards Tai Yu, the Daluo Sect Leader bowed and greeted:
"Tai Yu of Daluo Sect, pays respect to the Emperor of Great Blue!"
Maintaining his smile, Qin Ziheng nodded towards Tai Yu:
"This great victory also owes much to Sect Leader Tai Yu's efforts, my promise will be fulfilled, please accompany into the city."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Tai Yu bowed once again.
Qin Ziheng turned, pulling Wenren Zheng with one hand and Li Fei with the other:
"Co, today let's take a ride and enjoy the sights together, hahahaha—"
He led them forward, mounts already prepared for them, tad exotic beasts.
"Mount up!"
Qin Ziheng, buoyed and spirited today, embracing a rare playful mood.
Then, he, along with Li Fei, Wenren Zheng, Tai Yu, and others mounted their steeds.
The Emperor in the center, Wenren Zheng and Li Fei on each side, Tai Yu a step behind.
The four riders entered the city, followed closely by the civil and military officials.
The scene likened to Li Fei's ride into the city previously, from Xuanwu Gate to the Imperial City, countless flowers covered the avenues.
As they passed, cheers surged like tides, petals scattered like raindrops.
This is what it ans to enjoy the sights and sound of celebration!
The entire Lanling City fell into a frenzy, fireworks rose everywhere within the city, painting the sky in vibrant colors.
"Li Fei, I heard about your feat outside Vajra City on proving Dao with five certifications, what exactly happened? Share the details with ."
On horseback, Qin Ziheng turned, smilingly inquiring of Li Fei.
The matter of Li Fei's five certifications at the pinnacle had not spread publicly.
Being exceedingly incredible, even those witnessing it firsthand mostly did not comprehend it.
Qin Ziheng received intelligence from Li Fei himself, yet even so, he didn't understand how Li Fei accomplished the feat.
Upon hearing the query, Wenren Zheng and Tai Yu turned their gaze towards Li Fei.
Even these two Martial Saints harbored curiosity about the event.
"Your Majesty, I began with the Dao of World Peace, concluding with the ultimate defeat of the West Pole Country as the peak of proving Dao, hence there was room for maneuver..."
Li Fei explained to Qin Ziheng.
'Magic and Martial Unity' involves both 'montum' and 'strength', reversing at the peak is proving Dao with strength, proceeding after breaking through is also proving Dao with strength.
The forthcoming Qi Fortune and World Peace are proving Dao with montum.
Beginning with 'unity of montum and strength', followed by two instances of proving Dao with strength, then two instances of proving Dao with montum.
Li Fei's five certifications achieved a delicate balance, which was key to his ultimate success in 'closure'.
"Truly astounding, unprecedented and unlikely to be surpassed by others in the future."
Qin Ziheng exclaid with awe.
Authentically disbelieving that anyone could replicate Li Fei's five certifications pinnacle in the future.
"How do you compare now with Lin Tianyi?"
Qin Ziheng suddenly inquired, eyes full of anticipation.
Li Fei outside Vajra City slaying five at the peak in one stroke, looking across the world, only Lin Tianyi could accomplish such a feat.
Hence, even before Wenren Zheng, Qin Ziheng directly bypassed him, asking whether Li Fei or Lin Tianyi was stronger.
