Chapter 48: Bear General

The human world is vast, stretching for countless miles. Even if ordinary people spend their entire lives exploring it, they cannot walk even one ten-thousandth of it. The cultivators who are superior to ordinary people only know that the land under their feet is extremely vast, but as for how vast it is, few cultivators can answer.

Many cultivators try to explore it, but they seem to be extremely powerful among mortals, but when facing this vast continent, they are like mortals and cannot explore it all in their lifetime. In other words, they may have walked from one end of the continent to the other, but because it is too far away, they cannot return. After they die in a foreign land, no one can know their achievements.

Until later, a certain sage created a magical formation. This formation uses the power of heaven and earth, consumes a certain amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy, and instantly transfers people from one place to another. This magical formation was called the Qiankun Migration Formation by the sage, but later generations prefer to call it affectionately-the teleportation formation.

The emergence of the teleportation formation has led to explosive development in the human world. The distance between two places that were originally very far apart, even if it took a cultivator several years or even decades to fly in the air, can now be reached in just one stick of incense with the help of this teleportation array, and the distance between two places that are closer can even be reached instantly with the help of the teleportation array.

The shortening of transportation time has led to the vigorous development of all parts of the human world, whether it is the exchange of materials or the spread of culture, it can be achieved in a very short time. Whether it is a cultivator or an ordinary person, it seems that they have seen the broad road to happiness in this prosperity.

However, human nature is greedy, or it can be said that not only humans, but all intelligent life is greedy. This greed is deep in the bone marrow and is the root of their progress, just like the powerful cultivators who appear in pursuit of immortality. But this greed is also the root of evil. It makes life produce jealousy, resentment and other negative emotions in the process of progress, and then comes-war.

It was a dark period, which caused irreparable and huge pain to the entire human world. That period of time is unknown, because no one is willing or dares to record the ugliest side of the creatures in the human world for future generations to study. Nowadays, in all the written records in the human world, that period of time is either blurred, vague, or glossed over.

In the current records of the human world, only one thing about that dark period of time has been recorded in detail.

That is the Eternal Dynasty, the Dayan Dynasty, which freed the human world from the dark and turbulent years, created a relatively harmonious and orderly world for all creatures in the human world, and has been protecting it to this day.

Today, the Dayan Dynasty is the only dynasty in the human world. It is so vast that it almost covers two-thirds of the land that has been explored in the human world, or even more. And this vast area also provides the Dayan Dynasty with countless populations, as well as monks who stand out from these mortals.

Among these monks, there are many outstanding people who should be called geniuses in the eyes of many sects. But Dayan is too big, and there are too many such people. In the eyes of the Dayan Dynasty, these geniuses, haha, are just ordinary people who are a little stronger.

Only some outstanding people, who are superior to others in some aspects and are unmatched by their peers, can possibly catch the eye of the Dayan Dynasty.

For example, the people kneeling in front of us.

The capital of Dayan, a magnificent palace that is several times larger than the huge underground palace of the Wuyang Tomb, is the center of the entire Dayan Dynasty and the residence of the great Emperor Dayan.

A side hall in the palace, surrounded by bookshelves filled with various books and paintings, with a purple-gold desk in the middle. At first glance, this desk should be made of purple gold, but if you look closely, you will find that although its color and appearance resemble purple gold, it is indeed a kind of wood, but it is unknown what kind of wood it is. There are all kinds of pens, ink, paper and inkstones on the table, and the precious light is lingering, which shows that these things are not ordinary items, but all of them are magic weapons.

On a wide chair made of the same material as the desk, a middle-aged man with a bookish look sat. He looked like an ordinary middle-aged scholar, but the black brocade robe with nine dragons wrapped around him reminded everyone of his identity all the time.

He was the master of the world, the current emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty - Emperor Yanling, Yuwen Tailuo.

On both sides behind him, there was a person standing on each side.

On the left was an old man in a robe. Although his silver hair and snow-white beard showed that he was already quite old, his face had few wrinkles, but instead had a faint luster that only middle-aged people had. The old man lowered his head slightly, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was asleep, but the inexplicable breath that lingered around him from time to time, like the way of heaven, made this seemingly dozing old man give people a sense of immortality, shocking the hearts of others.

On the right side of Emperor Yanling, there was a strong man in a purple robe. This sturdy man was almost a head taller than an ordinary person. His beard was expressionless. His pair of copper bell-like eyes coldly swept over the people kneeling in front of the desk. The cold gaze that seemed to have substance made the people who were already frightened and kneeling in front of him feel extremely uncomfortable as if they were cut by a sharp blade.

However, they did not dare to move. Not to mention the fact that these two people could stand beside the Lord of the World, the bear head embroidered on the purple brocade robe of this sturdy man, which seemed to be ready to eat someone, made the kneeling people dare not move at all.

Only one person in Dayan can have the bear head symbol, and that is the leader of Dayan's four generals - General Xiong.

And General Shi, who was kneeling in the crowd, understood one thing in his heart. In the eyes of outsiders, the four generals of Dayan, Generals Lion, Bear, Tiger and Leopard, are equally matched and are the four pillars of Dayan. But only those who hold a certain high position know that General Xiong is a special existence among the four generals.

Whether in terms of military strength or strategy, the other three generals cannot be compared with General Xiong. And Emperor Yan once even wanted to make General Xiong a marshal, but for some reason he refused. You know, since the founding of Dayan, it has gone through tens of thousands of years and has conferred two marshals in total. Faced with this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that can be passed down through the ages, General Xiong actually refused, and his words were tough, and he even rudely contradicted Emperor Yan.

Just when everyone thought that General Xiong would die soon, Emperor Yan was not angry at all, but agreed to his request and no longer conferred him a title. However, although Emperor Yan did not confer General Xiong a marshal title, he gave General Xiong the treatment of a marshal.

However, General Xiong did not show any unusual behavior, and remained as low-key as before, so that he was not well-known in the outside world, and was only occasionally mentioned when talking about the Four Generals of Dayan.

Although General Xiong was low-key, others did not dare to look down on him. You must know that although General Xiong did not have the title of marshal, he was actually a marshal. Take the two people standing behind Emperor Yan at this time. The old man was the current national teacher. He was second to none. Not only was his cultivation unfathomable, but his unique way of destiny was even more unfathomable. General Xiong could be listed with him behind Emperor Yan, which explained a lot of problems.

Time passed slowly, and Emperor Yan was still thinking slightly and silent. And the old man behind him also closed his eyes, motionless like a sculpture. Only General Xiong's sharp eyes kept sweeping over everyone, gradually becoming colder and colder.

Suddenly, a pleasant male voice sounded.

"Then, tell me."

Emperor Yanling, Yuwen Tailuo, opened his eyes.
