Chapter 193 Recapturing The City
"Mother's vision, now completely gone with her passing, until it crumbles apart."
"But even so, I must continue on."
"No matter what happens, no matter who becomes the ruler of the empire, this empire... absolutely cannot fall!"
"It carries the will of my mother and me... my mother's spirit in heaven is watching me, I cannot abandon her... cannot abandon it."
...
Thus spoke Chu Qianqiu, there was no choice but to maintain the lifeline of the empire.
Now, her mother's remains were gone, her restless spirit lingering in the blood-soaked Emperor's Tower.
He had gone through countless twists and turns, countless sleepless nights, wanting to give that innocent soul some peace.
Since childhood, he had thought of rebuilding this decaying empire.
Now, no matter what, there was still hope for this empire, everything could still be salvaged.
...
Chu Qianqiu looked at Tang Zhao, no more words, just turned to the people present and took out some clothes and food from the storage ring.
"Take them all, the account is on this guy's head."
"If you need anything, just ask him."
After distributing a large amount of food, all the refugees were overjoyed, lining up in an orderly manner, not daring to fight over it.
Chu Qianqiu walked into the city alone, no longer paying attention to these people.
After the refugees received the food and clothes, they looked at Tang Zhao, who had just been pointed at by Chu Qianqiu, with some curiosity.
Tang Zhao suddenly became the focus of everyone.
...
After returning to the city of Yuefeng, Chu Qianqiu sent the other residents of the city to help the refugees from outside temporarily build shelters.
He promised that as long as the things were built, there would be no shortage of food and money.
The carpenters and laborers in the city naturally trusted the character of the Chu family's patriarch and agreed without hesitation.
After giving instructions for the affairs inside and outside the city, Chu Qianqiu led some capable young members of the family, as well as his parents and Xiao Hong, and headed towards other chaotic cities.
He wanted to eliminate all the families that claimed kingship and dominance in these cities, and return the cities to the control of ordinary people.
The first city he arrived at was an inconspicuous small city in the empire.
The people here dared not step out of the city because of the oppression of a small family.
The imperial soldiers here had been bribed by this family and became their loyal forces.
When Chu Qianqiu arrived, the small family in this city was still organizing manpower, preparing to fight against another family in another city.
So, when they saw a powerful cultivator descending, the people of this family were all confused, not understanding what was happening.
And in just a moment, this city was easily subdued by Chu Qianqiu, almost effortlessly.
Without staying, without listening to the cheers of the oppressed people, he led the Chu family and quickly moved on to the next city.
The next city was also controlled by a powerful family.
But this city, compared to the previous one, was controlled by two major families.
These two major families were now engaged in a fierce battle for the true sovereignty of this city, causing a lot of casualties among the common people.
Chu Qianqiu appeared again, and with just two moves, everything ended, quickly putting an end to the chaos.
The aftermath of the war, the two major families were completely annihilated in a short period of time, and this city was also marked with Chu Qianqiu's name.
...
Continuing forward.
This time, Chu Qianqiu and his group gradually approached the imperial city, arriving at the relatively prosperous cities around the imperial city.
These cities, due to their proximity to the imperial city, were well-connected and mostly inhabited by influential and powerful people.
Among them, the first to arrive was the strongest city under the imperial city, known as Qingyuan City.
This city is home to four major families: the Ru family, the Yuan family, the Chen family, and the Mu family.
These four families have different origins and interests, each pursuing their own goals and livelihoods.
The Ru family specializes in medicine and alchemy.
The Yuan family is primarily engaged in trade.
The Chen family excels in martial arts.
And the Mu family is known for its literary talents.
In terms of combat power, the Chen and Ru families are considered the most powerful among the four major families.
Therefore, currently, only two of the four major families are still competing for fame and fortune, while the other two have become prisoners.
Before Chu Qianqiu arrived, the Ru family had the advantage due to the presence of alchemists and the support of various forces.
And this time, when he came to Qingyuan City, his main goal was to deal with the Ru family.
There is a connection between Chu Qianqiu and the Ru family.
His wife, Qinglian, was an abandoned child from the Ru family.
Qinglian's parents were persecuted by Ru Guanyu, the alchemy genius of the Ru family, and the family head, which ultimately led to their deaths.
Until now, Chu Qianqiu has not told his wife the truth, fearing that it would cause her lifelong suffering.
Because of this, Chu Qianqiu has long had the idea of exterminating the Ru family and making them pay the corresponding price.
Now, the opportunity is right in front of him, and it is time to unleash a massacre.
At present, the two sides have different positions, so the killings are irrelevant to right or wrong.
...
On the magnificent city wall of Qingyuan City.
At this moment, Ru Guanyu, dressed in a Daoist robe, looked down at the submissive people below, laughing wildly without concealing his madness at capturing the city!
He succeeded.
With the support of a powerful force behind him, he and the family head successfully captured this long-desired city.
Now, their Ru family is the ruler of this city.
In the future, they will certainly conquer other cities and become the masters of the entire Rising Sun Empire!
"Guanyu, I am old now. The future of the Ru family and the expansion of our grand family territory will be entrusted to you."
On the city wall, an old and elderly man came to the side of the confident Daoist man and spoke with great seriousness.
Ru Guanyu raised his head arrogantly, as if he held the fate of the world in his hands, and nodded with a smile.
"Family head, rest assured, with me here, I can see everything in the world!"
"Now, except for the Chu family, which has just risen in the Moon Phoenix City, I don't even consider anyone else!"
"And how can the foundation of the Chu family compare to our long-established Ru family?"
"In the end, if they dare to resist, it's just a flea trying to shake a tree."
Saying this, Ru Guanyu began to enjoy the beautiful future.
But in a moment of confusion, a cold light struck.
When he reacted, the family head beside him had already been separated from his body.
Blood sprayed heavily on him, and the scorching hot flow made him feel horror and panic.
He wanted to turn his head, but in the next instant, he found that his body was already immobile.
When he regained his senses, several figures appeared in front of him, staring at him with an absolute indifference, as if they were about to judge him and send him to hell.
"I heard everything you just said."
