Chapter 408: Chapter 409: Sealed as the Lesser Northern King

"Young Master!"

"Young Master, what happened to you?" Liu Kuangsheng exclaimed in shock.

"We must treat our fallen brothers well..." Ye Wudao said, closing his eyes.

"Young Master, no, don’t!" the crowd shouted.

"Let me have a look!" Blade Mad walked over to check on Ye Wudao and sighed in relief, saying, "It’s alright, the Young Master just expended too much power and fainted!"

...

The battle at Sand Bone City caused a colossal uproar outside the realm!

"Damn, was the king of Sand Bone City killed by Ye Wudao?"

"That’s nothing, even the leading king of the four kings from the supporting Poluo Country, King Bach, also died under Ye Wudao’s blade!"

"I heard that Sand Bone City was filled with bodies from Poluo Country, numbering in the hundreds of thousands!"

"Hiss, that Ye Wudao is terrifying!"

"It’s best not to provoke the Beiwang Hall!"

This earth-shattering news from Sand Bone City spread throughout the lands beyond and quickly reached Northern Liang as well.

The four major legions of Northern Liang were all deeply shocked.

"Damn, Ye Wudao led the Beiwang Hall and annihilated Sand Bone City, obliterating hundreds of thousands of enemies in one battle!"

"That’s already impressive, but what’s even more exaggerated is that he killed two kings in one battle!"

"Is this the true strength of Beiwang Hall? Our four major legions of Northern Liang are nowhere close!"

"This achievement is too great, our position will be surpassed by Beiwang Hall!" The commanders of the four legions exchanged glances and smiled wryly.

And this event not only resonated outside the realm and in Northern Liang but also spread throughout Dragon Country!

The people of Dragon Country were all immensely exhilarated!

"Beiwang Hall is too formidable!"

"One battle outside the realm, destroying three hundred and seventy thousand enemies!"

"Especially Ye Wudao, killing two kings in one battle, this is definitely the most glorious military achievement in Dragon Country in the last ten years!"

After this battle, Ye Wudao’s reputation soared!

Capital City.

Upon hearing this news, the six lords of Dragon Country also laughed and said, "Old chaps, what do you think?"

"This young fellow Ye Wudao is really formidable, nearly crippling half of Poluo Country’s power in one battle!"

"Poluo Country won’t dare to act rashly outside the realm for at least ten years!"

Just then, Lord Jiang arrived.

The people laughed and asked, "Lord Jiang, how do you think we should deal with Ye Wudao’s action?"

"The royal family says that Ye Wudao initiated war without cause, especially killing the twin kings of Poluo Country! Poluo Country will surely seek revenge." This puts Dragon Country in a difficult position, and there’s a proposal to imprison Ye Wudao and hand him over to Poluo Country to quell their anger," Lord Jiang said.

"What, hand over our hero to the enemy?"

"The royal family, a bunch of traitorous bastards!"

"That’s disgraceful!" The people were furious.

Lord Jiang said, "Of course, I strongly objected, and moreover, I plan not only to refrain from punishing but also to heavily reward Ye Wudao!"

"Right, he fought for our country and glorified our nation, he certainly deserves a reward!"

"Killing two kings in one battle, although Poluo is a small country, this military achievement is still dazzling enough!"

Lord Jiang laughed and said, "I plan to reward him in this manner, what do you think..."

Moments later.

The six lords of Dragon Country all nodded, "Agreed!"

"This reward is good!"

...

The scene shifts.

Three days later.

Northern Liang.

Beiwang Hall Camp.

Ye Wudao slowly opened his eyes.

"Young Master, the Young Master is awake!" Lei Hu shouted.

Just then, Liu Kuangsheng and others came running, their faces filled with excitement as they said, "Young Master, how are you?"

"I’m fine." Ye Wudao shook his head, having drained too much power using the Eye of Slaughter and also suffering from slaughter backlash.

The power of the Eye of Slaughter is too great; it should not be used except in absolutely necessary moments!

"It’s good that you are unharmed," everyone sighed in relief.

"By the way, how many brothers did we lose in this battle?" Ye Wudao asked.

All looked at each other, none daring to speak.

Finally, Daokuang stood up, smiled bitterly, and said, "Young master, though we killed three hundred seventy thousand of the enemy in this battle at Beiwang Hall, we ourselves paid a steep price! Eighteen thousand brothers were killed and forty thousand were injured!"

What?

Upon hearing this, Ye Wudao’s body trembled.

"Do we have money for pensions?" Ye Wudao asked.

"Young master, we don’t!" Liu Kuangsheng replied with a bitter smile, "The Beiwang Hall once had a treasury at its peak with a trillion in funds, rich enough to rival nations! But after Beiwang fell, the royal family occupied the treasury! Currently, our treasury has no funds at all!"

"So you mean, the brothers fought to the death in this battle, and got nothing in return?" Ye Wudao retorted.

"Yes," Liu Kuangsheng clenched his fists.

Bang!

Ye Wudao punched the wall and gritted his teeth; "How can this be? I can’t let the brothers sacrifice in vain!"

"But, young master, we have no money," the crowd said with a wry smile.

"No money? Then sell my Beiwang Blade and Hidden Dragon Saber to provide pensions for the brothers!" Ye Wudao declared.

"What, sell the Beiwang Blade and Hidden Dragon Saber?"

"Absolutely not!"

"If the brothers knew you sold the sabers to give them money, they would never agree to it!" Liu Kuangsheng and the others hastily objected.

Just then, a hearty laugh rang out; "Young master Ye, you don’t need to exchange them for money!"

Who?

Ye Wudao looked up, only to see five experts from Northern Liang approaching.

"Brother Leihu, Brother Ling Wei!" Ye Wudao’s eyes lit up with joy.

"Young brother Ye, you are truly remarkable, to kill two kings in one battle, annihilating three hundred seventy thousand enemies, amazing!" Leihu praised.

"I’m not worthy of being called brother by Young Master Ye now!" Ling Wei said with a wry smile.

Ye Wudao curiously looked around. "Who are these people?"

Leihu laughed and said, "These are the four great commanders of Northern Liang. We heard you were injured and came to see you. Plus, we thought we’d help you with some practical troubles."

"Don’t keep me in suspense, Brother Leihu," Ye Wudao said.

"Haha, okay,"

Leihu smiled and said, "The Queen of Northern Liang heard about how bravely you fought in the foreign lands! She specially allocated twenty billion from the Northern Liang treasury to reward you!"

Twenty billion!

Hearing this astronomical figure, Daokuang, Liu Kuangsheng, and others were thrilled!

This twenty billion was truly timely help!

"Brother Leihu, please extend my thanks to the Queen of Northern Liang!" Ye Wudao bowed with clasped hands.

"Certainly!" Leihu smiled and nodded.

Pausing, Ling Wei said, "The four great commanders of Northern Liang also highly admire Beiwang Hall. Everyone chipped in twenty billion. We have small homes and businesses, but we hope Young Master Ye doesn’t mind!"

What?

Ye Wudao was deeply moved by this news and hastily stood up; "Ye Wudao, on behalf of Beiwang Hall, thanks the four great commands of Northern Liang!"

Just then, a voice came; "The envoy from Dragon Country is here!"

What?

The envoy from Dragon Country?

Everyone looked shocked as an envoy approached and said, "Which one is Young Master Ye?"

"I am. May I ask what you need?" Ye Wudao asked.

"I am the envoy from Dragon Country, sent by the command of the six dukes!"

The envoy from Dragon Country took out a scroll from his person and declared, "Ye Wudao, lord of Beiwang Hall, has distinguished himself in battle! Having slain the twin kings of Bapoluo and destroyed three hundred seventy thousand enemies, in recognition of Ye Wudao’s significant contributions, he is bestowed with the title of Northern King, becoming the ninth foreign prince of Dragon Country.

Since the Northern King is young, upon reaching the age of thirty, a grand coronation ceremony will be held in the Capital City!"

Boom!

Northern King!

Hearing this astounding news, Leihu’s mouth hung open, eyes popping!

The Dragon Country envoy slowly said; "As Beiwang Hall has distinguished itself in battle, the national treasury specially allocated five hundred billion as a pension to reward them!"

The Dragon Country envoy laid down the scroll and smiled; "Northern King, congratulations!"
