Chapter 713: A New Chapter
🕑 Added 2024-12-10 11:06:26 +0000 UTCAfter hearing Lan Feng'er’s words, Zhang Juncheng frowned slightly and said, "No matter what, His Majesty is the ruler of an empire. Going to an academy as a student seems a bit..."
"Haixuan Sacred Academy isn’t just an ordinary academy. The matters inside go far beyond simple cultivation."
"Among the students, there are many rulers of various regions in the Haixuan Star Domain. Once you enter, you may find that your senior brothers and sisters are rulers of sects, emperors of nations, or perhaps even grand elders of powerful factions."
"The Haixuan Star Domain is vast, and powerful geniuses are everywhere. It’s not uncommon for the heads of factions to enter the academy as students."
Lan Feng'er’s words piqued Lin Qian's interest. Knowing that many of the academy’s students were leaders of their own forces made it impossible for him to ignore the place.
Lin Qian didn’t believe that these talented leaders were entering the academy just to learn. There had to be more intriguing things happening within its walls.
Seeing Lin Qian’s growing interest, Lan Feng'er asked, "So, would you both like to give it a try?"
Ye Xin hesitated, turning her head to look at Lin Qian. She wanted to hear his opinion.
Lin Qian was already filled with curiosity about the Haixuan Sacred Academy. Moreover, to complete the Puppet Body Project, he would undoubtedly need to enter the academy for further study.
Thus, Lin Qian decided to go to the Haixuan Sacred Academy for cultivation.
Since the academy was a holy land in the Haixuan Star Domain, with students from all over, entering would provide him a faster and safer way to learn about the star domain.
With this in mind, Lin Qian thought, Why not? After all, the Huaxia Empire on Soul Martial Planet was already on the right track. Even without his presence, the empire could still be managed.
Lin Qian wasn’t worried about the trials; he was confident that he would pass and become a student of the Haixuan Sacred Academy.
"It seems that this Haixuan Sacred Academy is quite interesting. In that case, there’s no harm in going for some cultivation." Lin Qian then turned to Ye Xin. "Xin’er, let’s go together."
Seeing Lin Qian’s decision, Ye Xin naturally nodded in agreement and turned to her mother. "Mother, we’ll be counting on you to take us there."
"Of course, but you haven’t even married yet, and you’re already so obedient to him, huh?" Lan Feng'er teased, relieved that both had agreed.
Faced with her mother’s teasing, Ye Xin blushed deeply, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Speaking of which, sister, you returned just in time. Lin Qian and Xin’er are about to get married," Yun Yunyan chimed in from the side.
Lan Feng'er nodded, then noticed something amiss. "Strange, sister, where is Emperor Lin?"
"His old ailment flared up again, and he’s fallen into a deep sleep. I don’t know why, but he still hasn’t woken up," Yun Yunyan replied, helpless.
Hearing this, Lan Feng'er’s expression changed, and she asked anxiously, "Is he alright?"
"There’s no need to worry; Lin is not in any danger, though we don’t know when he’ll wake up," Yun Yunyan reassured her with a light-hearted tone. The spirit within Lin’s artifact had confirmed that he wasn’t in any life-threatening danger, just in a deep sleep with no clear sign of waking soon.
When he did wake up, though, Yun Yunyan knew that there would be immense changes, though she wasn’t sure how long the process would take.
After the banquet, Lan Feng'er and Ye Nanxin returned to their chambers.
Seven days later, the wedding took place as scheduled. In the heart of New Qin City, important figures from across the Huaxia Empire gathered to celebrate the grand union of the Benevolent Emperor and the Holy Virtue Empress.
Dressed in red robes, Lin Qian and Ye Xin walked hand in hand up the grand staircase toward the main hall of the Huaxia Palace, with all eyes on them.
As they walked along the red carpet, their grip on each other’s hands tightened, their eyes fixed firmly ahead.
This wasn’t just their wedding; it was also the official founding ceremony of the Huaxia Empire.
Over the years, the Huaxia Empire had been focused on recovery, resettling its rapidly growing population, and building the foundations of the nation. A formal grand ceremony had not yet been held.
Everyone in attendance, as well as the citizens watching the live broadcast through the SoulVision system, looked on with excitement as their emperor and empress walked together toward the grand hall.
In front of the hall, a high platform had been set up, with the Dragon Throne and Phoenix Seat standing at the top.
Hand in hand, Lin Qian and Ye Xin ascended to the platform, where their parents were seated, waiting for them.
Although Emperor Lin was still in a deep sleep, his body had been carefully placed on a chair, his form propped up by the spirit within his artifact to maintain a sitting posture.
After paying their respects to the heavens and offering tea to their parents, Lin Qian and Ye Xin made their way to the platform.
Dressed in his red robe, Lin Qian gazed forward, with Ye Xin by his side.
"Soul Martial Continent has gone through many trials and tribulations. Today, peace reigns throughout the land. No matter the race, all people live and thrive on this land."
"Today, I declare that the Huaxia Empire now officially rules the entire Soul Martial Continent, and that from this day forward, there is no more Soul Martial Continent. Every inch of this land beneath our feet is Huaxia, the Soul Martial Star!"
"The nation’s title shall be Yanhuang, and I promise that the empire will always be the pillar of the people."
In that moment, cheers erupted across the continent. Cries of "Benevolent Emperor," "Holy Virtue Empress," and "Huaxia Empire" rang out everywhere.
Everyone had witnessed how Lin Qian and Ye Xin had led the officials to manage the Huaxia Empire through the years.
Afterward, a grand banquet was held for the guests, and later that night, Lin Qian and Ye Xin retired to their bridal chamber amidst much cheer and laughter.
As the candles flickered out, the room was filled with romance and tenderness, left unspoken.
After the wedding, Lin Qian and Ye Xin didn’t leave Soul Martial Star with Lan Feng'er just yet. There was still time before the doors of the Haixuan Sacred Academy would open.
Lin Qian still had a few final arrangements to make regarding the future of Soul Martial Star.
The Outer Void was a harsh place, and although Soul Martial Star had remained hidden due to its remote location, it wouldn’t stay undiscovered forever.
Lin Qian needed to ensure that when the day came, the people of Soul Martial Star would have the strength to defend against any potential invaders.
Once everything was set in place, Lin Qian would embark on a new chapter.
