New Emperor Of Ghouls

A few days had passed since the revelation and the village was bustling with even more activity.

There was a strange atmosphere around the village, it was almost as if everyone was excited?

Zhong Yi wasn't sure what it was as well, instead of being fearful, they wanted to go out and challenge the goblins and he was all for it.

A sense of pride would creep into Zhong Yi's heart whenever he looked at the village stats. It was like being starved for months and then finally being able to eat, but not all of it.

Zhang Yi was pulled out of his thoughts again by Feng Chen,"your majesty. The scholars have finished researching what you asked for and general Cheng has also told me to relay that the troops are fully trained and geared."

"This is great news, call both the Cheng brothers for a meeting in an hour." ordered Zhang Yi while he went to the scholars.

The scholars were made up of only S and SS ranked individuals, this meant that the research of anything had sped up measurably.

There have only been two things that Zhang Yi has asked the Scholars to look into, one of which was an ore finder profession and for a taming profession. They had finished both of those in 12 respectively.

An old man with long white hair emerged from a wooden building. His beaded eyes watched his leader approach. With a respectful bow, he reverted back to standing back up with a straight posture. "Your majesty, we have finished researching what you asked for, It is called mineralogist but is only limited to 5 people"

"You have done very well, Huang long. For your next project, you can research whatever you want as long as it can benefit the empire." told Zhong Yi feeling generous but immediately after he said it, he felt stupid

He could see the crazed look in Huang long's eyes as well as the rest of the scholars.

Sighing at his decision, he left after being thanked and bowed to numerous times by those cra-scholars.

"Cheng Jian Jun, This village needs an upgrade, we will soon reach full capacity with the population of Sacred village especially with the villagers coming from the other villages." Said Zhong Yi to the Cheng brothers.

"Your majesty, the army is ready as we speak, I had a hunch of what this meeting would entail." said Cheng Jian Jun with an expression that screamed praise me.

"Your majesty, we need a source of income, if we want to keep changing people's professions and those goblin villages are just waiting for us to collect their money."Added Cheng Jianguo, he had been stressing over the lack of cash flow in the village and this would reduce pressure on the treasury.

"Then it's decided, were attacking this goblin kingdom, we will take 250 troops and leave 50 to protect. After taking the villages, we do a clean sweep and should have enough to upgrade and have some left over." mentioned Zhong Yi, the monster herds and the den had been brought a lot of EXP to the village.

When the meeting finished, General Cheng was the first to run out. He had to make sure the army was presentable for his majesty. The second was Minister Cheng, His brows that had been furrowed for a few days had finally relaxed.

Zhong Yi walked along the path to to the barracks holding Zhong Mei's hands. She had been constantly asking to see the den that had been captured by the army a few days earlier.

"I told you already, I can't bring you with me. It's too dangerous!" Zhong Yi had been adamant in his decision to no amount of persuasion would change his mind.

"But, I can protect myself. My kagune grew out. I can even beat uncle cheng." proudly admitted Zhong mei

"Oh, which one?" smirkingly asked Zhong Yi.

"ummmm...Minister Cheng?"asked Zhong Mei with a hint of uncertainty in her voice.

"You beat Minister Cheng!" Exclaimed Zhong Yi, "that's my girl!"

He held her up with his dark-purple kagune as gently as possible and threw her into the air.

"Again, again!" repeated Zhong Mei.

This site was watched by passer byers, it was a warm scene.

As much as they wanted to have casual conversations with his majesty, they couldn't at all, they saw his majesty as a saviour, their emperor, they couldn't be anything other than respectful and full of worship.

"I need to go. Zhong Mei, don't cause mischief. Don't disappear suddenly and always make sure someone can sense your presence. Stay with auntie Liang and don't cause mischief!" warned Zhong Yi.

Zhong Mei looked at him from his shoulders and stuck her tongue out.

"Something is wrong," said Zhong Yi from his vantage point in the trees.

"Your majesty, we already did 3 scans of the area and nothing was found." helplessly replied General Cheng.

"Initiate the attack, send in 10 soldiers. Just them alone should be enough to take care of everything in this damned forest." said Zhong Yi, the feeling was starting to grate on his nerves.

"Oh and tell them, they can release their full power, don't hold back at all!" allowed Zhong Yi. their stage 3 body and stage 1-2 to 1-7 cultivation would mean an overall power of a stage 4, they could deform the landscape on small villages let alone this pitiful goblin village.

"Zhao hao and your squad, take the village, limiters are off!" Commanded General Cheng.

The entire army was envious of this squad, they could show off in front of his majesty and not hold back.

The bad feeling that Zhong Yi was feeling instantly multiplied.

Then everything started to matchup.

"Goblin kingdom" muttered Zhong Yi to himself.

Then his expression changed, fear was plastered onto his face.

"No no no nonono!"

General Cheng watched as his majesty went through a series of motions and his expression changed with them.

"Everyone get back to the village right now!!!!"

Not just General Cheng face changed, every soldier's faces changed to one of horror.

Zhong Yi took off at the speed of light. With his overall stage as a stage 5 cultivator, he was the fastest.

"Please be alright, please be safe."
