Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 56 — World Turmoil
Jiang Qisha actually wanted to discuss about Zhou Yuan further but the current situation was not right, there was something more important for them to discuss especially the Eternal Snow Organization.
Before Jiang Qisha headed to the residence of Mayor Hana, he had time to investigate the organization and get some important information.
Information that said that the Eternal Snow had taken control of several city governments clandestinely in the Moon Empire.
"Your Majesty doesn't this mean they want to declare war on the empire?" The mayor was surprised to hear the news, if this attack was not thwarted maybe Hana City would have the same fate as the city.
Attacking and taking possession are two different things, if a criminal organization wanted to take control of a city then it was considered a territorial colonization and would be considered a declaration of war for the entire Empire.
What Eternal Snow did was indeed excessive as a criminal group, most criminals generally only sought money or property and the like but controlling a territory was the most serious crime.
"Actually rather than mastering more precisely they were simply utilizing the city's trade routes." Jiang Qisha gave more detailed information. "One of the cities that Eternal Snow led did not take government treasures or use as a den of criminals, they were more attracted towards the economic side."
Zhou Yuan frowned, clearly not understanding the intentions and intentions of the organization moving.
"What do they get by monopolizing trade lines, I really don't understand?" Zhou Bing as the mayor of Riva City was as incomprehensible as Zhou Yuan.
Jiang Qisha sighed, "What is certain, whatever their intentions, letting those cities be controlled by criminal organizations is not a wise choice..."
Jiang Qisha explained that he would send his troops to protect the city that had been controlled by the Eternal Snow organization and reclaim it, he will also spread information to every city leader so that they can be vigilant.
With the failure of the Eternal Snow Organization's attack tonight let alone until it was known by the Moon Emperor himself, the Eternal Snow would definitely stop operating to take control of the city.
The Eternal Snow Organization had also lost one of their Elders, making the group experience a quite serious decline in strength. At least they won't act for a while.
"Your Majesty, then how about you overcome the Sky Cloud Temple?" Zhou Bing thought more of something else.
Zhou Bing heard about the Sky Cloud Temple intending to form an alliance of organizations to the entire Northern mainland, considering that a hundred years had passed after the great war, they must have had many organizations join under him.
"For this matter in fact I and the other three Empires had known about it long ago. Since this involves the four Empires, we agreed to work together to fight them."
Zhou Yuan, Zhou Bing, and the Mayor to the point of taking a cold breath heard him, not expecting the situation to be any more severe they thought.
Currently it could be said that the Four Empires in the Northern Mainland Continent were in a peaceful condition, not hostile even shake hands but sometimes there are many small secrets hidden in the martial world for example is the problem of this criminal organization.
"The Sky Cloud Temple organization has indeed caused trouble not only in the Moon Empire but in other empires..." Jiang Qisha continued his explanation. "Earth Emperor, Sun Emperor, and Star Emperor including me, will be holding a big meeting in two years..."
Jiang Qisha did not cover up this matter to the others because it was sooner or later that people would find out about the meeting of the four emperors.
"Your Majesty isn't this showing that something big is going to happen?" The mayor asked hesitantly.
Despite not knowing the exact strength of the alliance of the criminal organization but Jiang Qisha was sure their strength must be as powerful as to destroy one Empire at full power.
One hundred years ago, the Moon Empire was overwhelmed by organizations, if the government had not worked with the sects, it might have been destroyed by the Moon Empire.
Ending the conversation, Jiang Qisha said goodbye first because he had to see his granddaughter again.
"Yuan'er, nice to meet you. I hope you can visit me at the Palace, maybe I'll meet you with my granddaughter there."
Jiang Qisha smiled gently before taking out the gold-colored jade in his hand. "I want to give this gift for your services to save my previous grandson. Don't refuse, this thing will be very useful for you in the future."
The Golden Jade Jiang Qisha gave was an identifying mark that only the Imperial Family had, it would help Zhou Yuan make every deal of his affairs easier if dealing with the government.
It was not only Zhou Yuan who was shocked to receive the reward, Zhou Bing and the Mayor were just as shocked when they saw it.
Both of them knew the value of the golden jade, not only in the Moon Empire but also in the Four Empires.
Indirectly Zhou Yuan was currently already considered a member of the Imperial Family. Zhou Bing who saw that wondered, what kind of relationship was established between his grandson and the Moon Emperor until Jiang Qisha gave such a precious object.
As Jiang Qisha said, it was difficult for Zhou Yuan to refuse the gift. Given this Imperial Jade, Zhou Yuan would be respected as a member of the original Imperial Family.
Jiang Qisha then said goodbye and left the mayor's residence. Zhou Bing afterwards did the same, he was actually curious about Zhou Yuan's relationship with the Emperor but he was currently too tired to do that.
Zhou Bing had put on a life and death battle that drained all of his strength and energy. He and his granddaughter then returned to the inn previously booked.
Zhou Yuan went into his room and then dropped into bed, he was already exhausted tonight after going through many fights.
"The great battle..." Zhou Yuan smiled faintly as he recalled the previous conversation.
The great war a hundred years ago involved only the Moon Empire, but it was enough to leave the Moon Empire in a great deal of chaos and suffering.
If the Sky Cloud Temple had the ambition of ruling over the four empires showed their truly serious ambitions.
Zhou Yuan had to admit that the problems he faced in this life were so much bigger that it had to involve the four Empires.
Fighting the Sky Cloud Temple alone was clearly a foolish act even like a suicide but Zhou Yuan did not dispel his sense of revenge.
The reason Zhou Yuan had continued to train until now was because of his anger at the organization, although it was likely that Zhou Yuan's hopes were small would not give up.
