Indestructible God King - Chapter 131.2

Chapter 131.2 The Grand Ambition to Rule the World (2/2)

“Worry not, Clan Lord. I’ve investigated each of them thoroughly and ensured that none of them would think of betraying you!” Second cousin-brother said.

“Do you know why I asked you to find these youths?” Wang Ke asked, looking at him.

“I do! The Clan Lord is preparing for the upcoming Dragon Gate Assembly!” the other answered.

“That’s right,” Wang Ke said with a smile, “These are all good seeds! It would be a waste to let them rot in the secular world; they should enter the immortal sects!”

“Clan Lord, will we bring all these men into the Heavenly Wolf Sect?” Second cousin-brother asked.

Wang Ke shook his head and replied, “Nope. I’m going to have them disperse and enter each major immortal sect!”

“The Clan Lord wants to rule over all the major immortal clans in the Ten-thousand Great Mountains? The aim is to install spies already?” said the excited cousin-brother.

But Wang Ke looked at him with an awkward look. When did I say that?

“Do I look like a grand schemer to you?” Wang Ke asked.

“Uhh, I’m not sure!” Second cousin-brother shook his head.

Wang Ke continued explaining in a hopeful manner, “Okay, enough talk. Have them enter each major immortal sect to help us promote products from our God Wang Company! Our men will be present in every immortal sect to help us sell products. We’re going to become filthy rich!”

Once the plan was explained, Second cousin-brother said in excitement, “Clan Lord, now I get it. It’s not that easy to keep everyone in check; that’s why you’re starting small. You’re going to see how things unfold, and have the opportunity to announce the start of your reign; that is, if they can become sect lords in their respective sects!”

Wang Ke: “………………….!”

Second cousin-brother, why are you suddenly vying for more screen time?

“Second cousin-brother, you seem overly obsessed with the ruling of the world thing,” said Wang Ke.

The commander replied with determination, “The Brocaded Guard wasn’t successful in helping the Clan Lord reign over the empire back then! I’m still guilt-stricken! I’ve been waiting for an opportunity all these years to make up for my failure. I firmly believe that our Clan Lord will lead us so we can attain an insurmountable accomplishment! I’m willing to spend my entire life fighting for it!”

Wang Ke: “…………………..!”

Come on, I’m not thinking that far ahead! I only want to make money! Where did all those thoughts come from!

“Second cousin-brother, we are in a different generation now. Why do you still think I want to reign over the world?” Wang Ke asked.

“The Clan Lord’s ambition is seared into my heart,” the commander said respectfully, “I don’t care if others don’t know of it; I, as the Brocaded Guard Commander, will know this for sure! The Clan Lord has also clarified his grand ambition to us not long ago! And I, your servant, will surely assist you to the end!”

“What grand will did I talk about? How come I know nothing about it?” Wang Ke was stunned.

“We got to learn of the slogan you taught Big cousin-brother,” Second cousin-brother answered with even more determination, “I will rather violate the world than to have the world violate me! I’m the greatest in all the heavens and the earth! My life is in my hands; Heaven has no hold on me!’ Who else in the world can make such dominant assertions? Only a hegemon who sets his heart and mind on the world would say such things with ease! It’s our honor to stand by your side!”

Wang Ke was shocked, “Those were the words said by ancient despots back on earth! If you want more, I still have a bunch!”

Still, Second cousin-brother replied in all seriousness, “Clan Lord, you don’t have to explain things to me! I know all your thoughts! Don’t worry; I will hide all these things at the bottom of our hearts! We will not expose even a tinge before you reign over the world! We would rather die than spill things out!”

The five hundred youths said as one, “We shall offer our lives to help the Clan Lord attain an insurmountable accomplishment, ruling over the world!”

Wang Ke: “…………………..!”

Those blossoms of the Wang Clan were all brainwashed by the chuunibyou, Second cousin-brother? They have all been led astray?

To hell with ruling over the world! I only wanted to make big bucks! You guys……!

“Clan Lord, we will surely do our best to be enrolled in the immortal sects during the Dragon Gate Assembly. You can count on us!” Second cousin-brother promised.

“Okay, sure. Do as you please!” Wang Ke replied with an awkward look.

“Did you hear what the Clan Lord said?” Second cousin-brother said sternly, “He doesn’t want to pressure you, but this is the time to repay his kindness! The Clan Lord saved you from begging on the streets! Not only did he save your parents’ lives too, he even gave them a much better life in the cultivation towns! Not everyone had the luck to be chosen by the Clan Lord! He purposefully chose you for this mission. Do you understand?”

Wang Ke’s mind went blank. Understand what? I only sent out some salespeople! You sound like those multi-level marketing brainwashers!

“We understand! Our parents know that we were chosen by the Clan Lord for a secret mission! They were overjoyed!”

“My father threatened to break my legs if I sabotaged the Clan Lord’s plan!”

“Yeah, a few of my good friends were green with envy when they found out I was participating in the Clan Lord’s secret mission!”

“I will not disappoint the Clan Lord!”

……………………

………………

……

The exhilarated youths spoke with clenched fists.

Wang Ke: “…………………..!”

“Clan Lord, you can count on us! We will not disappoint you!” Second cousin-brother said proudly.

“Uhh, okay,” Wang Ke acknowledged while feeling awkward, “Act according to our plan. Head to the Dragon Gate Assembly when the time comes; I will leave this place in your hands!”

“Rest assured, Clan Lord! I will do my best!” Second cousin-brother said.

Wang Ke nodded before leaving the courtyard.

The youths bowed respectfully to send him off.

And so, Wang Ke left the place feeling perplexed.

His big cousin-brother and the other clan members immediately swarmed around him when he went outside.

“Do you guys know how Second cousin-brother has been acting up?” Wang Ke asked.

He’s acting as if he were on steroids!

“Worry not, Clan Lord. We’ve never pried into what mission you gave to Second cousin-brother! We’ve also been always helping out with his needs and tasks!” Big cousin-brother explained.

Wang Ke: “…………………..!”

So, even the Wang Clan has developed different factions? Forget it. Let them be!

“Where did we stop just now?” Wang Ke asked, looking at his big cousin-brother.

“We were saying that our Clan Lord should be the one who decides the dynasty name. We also formulated some battle plans for the chaotic war between military clans. We await your decision!” Big cousin-brother said solemnly.

“Dynasty title? Why do we need a new one?” Wang Ke asked.

“Ahh?”

“Let’s keep calling it the ‘Great Qing Empire,’ what’s bad about it?” Wang Ke said.

“Great Qing Empire? Clan Lord, that is Zhu Yan’s previous dynasty name. No one uses past dynasty names!” his big cousin-brother said curiously.

An elder from the Wang Clan agreed, “Yeah, Clan Lord, the dynasty name always changes when a new empire overtakes the old one. This is extremely symbolic, signifying a change in the dynasty! Not changing the dynasty’s name doesn’t seem right!”

“No, we will still use ‘Qing’! The empire is still called the ‘Great Qing Empire’! Haven’t you heard about how the Tian superseded the Jiang in ruling over Qi? Uhh, right. You wouldn’t have heard about it! Anyway, the Wang will replace the Zhu to rule over Qing!” Wang Ke declared.

The Tian superseded the Jiang to rule over Qi! That historical event happened during the Warring States Era back on Earth. The royal family ruling over the Qi Empire were descendants of Jiang Ziya; their surname was Jiang! A major clan by the surname Tian destroyed the royal family of Jiang later on, then ruled over the empire by themselves. Still, they retained the dynasty name ‘Qi’! It also helped them to stabilize their political power within a very short time! It was the same old Qi Empire; it was just that the emperor’s surname became Tian rather than Jiang.

“The Wang replacing the Zhu to rule over Qing?” Everyone was astounded to hear that.

“That’s right,” Wang Ke started explaining, “The royal members of the Great Qing Empire’s Zhu family were all slaughtered by Zhu Yan! She then turned into a demon! There is no one to inherit the throne! We can come up with a trick to rightfully inherit the Great Qing Empire! We will become the Great Qing Empire’s authentic rulers by then! And the Qing Capital will still be central to the empire! All the other military clans will be seen as rebels! We will have the moral high ground to command the empire’s armed forces to defeat the enemy clans and help us stabilize internal conflicts!”

Big cousin-brother and the others were in awe of the plan. I never expected such a degree of manipulation!

“Clan Lord, isn’t it too shameless for us to do that?” a clan member asked doubtfully.

Another clan member scolded him, though. “Shut up! How dare you question the Clan Lord! Go find Third grand-uncle to receive your punishment!”

And so, Wang Ke decided based on the strategic direction for Wang Clan’s army!
