Chapter 131.1

(TLN: Title is a phrase often appears in historical or fictional contexts, particularly in stories involving uprisings or revolutions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Turban_Rebellion )

At this moment, Lin Beifan waved his hand, and the ground was suddenly covered with a multitude of gold and silver treasures. There were many pieces of broken silver and gold, but the most significant were the silver banknotes, totaling a value of 3 million taels of silver.

This was what he had fished out from those noble family members who had come to hunt for treasure.

They had come for money, but in the end, they not only left their own money behind but also lost their lives.

Lin Beifan chuckled to himself: This can be considered a windfall!

Meanwhile, the six great noble families had no idea that they had been duped by Lin Beifan.

As they watched the people they had sent out to search for treasure fail to return, their hearts bled with pain.

They only felt that Great Xia was their bane, specifically suppressing them; encountering it meant nothing good would happen.

At this time, Great Xia was thriving with national production, and the world was at peace, with no significant events.

However, in the small kingdom region to the northeast, a massive upheaval had occurred.

Three powerful individuals proclaimed themselves as General Tiangong (Heaven Official General), General Digong (Earth Official General), and General Rengong (Human Official General), and established a sect called the Yellow Sky Sect, sparking a huge disturbance that affected many countries.

They worshipped the Yellow Sky deity, with the slogan The Azure Sky is already dead, the Yellow Sky will soon rise, aiming to create a peaceful world dominated by Yellow Sky.

In this world, everyone would have food to eat, clothes to wear, and a house to live in; the people would live and work in peace and contentment.

At this time, those small kingdoms were plagued with frequent wars, and the people were living in hardship, already dissatisfied.

So, there were numerous responders, swiftly creating momentum that spread like wildfire.

The Azure Sky is already dead, the Yellow Sky will soon rise!

May the Yellow Sky deity rise above and bring peace to the world!

Believe in Yellow Sky, achieve eternal life!

The local court was too weak to organize any effective resistance.

Thus, the Yellow Sky Sect grew faster and faster.

In the imperial court, a report was presented.

Your Majesty, the Yellow Sky Sect is currently expanding rapidly, with a following that has reached 3 million, spreading across the five small kingdoms in the northeast, presenting a situation where a single spark can start a prairie fire! Your humble servant is concerned that they may disrupt our nation. We should prepare early to prevent any unforeseen events!

Lin Beifan nodded: I am already aware of this matter! However, this sect is stirring up trouble in other nations and is unrelated to our country for the time being. We will not intervene! But, should we discover that they are bewitching the hearts of our people and developing followers within our borders, seize them immediately!

Yes, Your Majesty! the crowd responded in unison.

At this time, with the rapid development of the Yellow Sky Sect, the three generals of the sect were full of high spirits.

Elder brother, who would have thought that the Yellow Sky Sect would grow so easily! With just a call to arms, we immediately have a cloud of responders! Now we have more than 3 million followers, with believers spread across various nations. The day when we can change dynasties and don the yellow robes is within reach! General Digong said contentedly after taking a sip of fine wine.

General Tiangong, with his eyebrows dancing and face full of excitement, said: Second brother, you are absolutely right! Our followers have already reached 3 million. If we put in a little more effort, we can completely establish a nation of our own! Our era is coming! Haha Brothers, please!

Elder brother, please! The other two raised their glasses.

The three of them drank up and burst into hearty laughter.

After finishing their drinks, General Rengong said, Elder brother, now that our followers are saturated, should we expand outward?

We do indeed sleep in thatched huts, but thats just a temporary residence! Were not so particular when were out working; having a place to sleep is already good enough! And speaking of houses, I have one too!

The old man laughed proudly: Its right there in the capital city, a concrete house, big and sturdy! My spouse and children all live there, warm in winter and cool in summer, impervious to wind and rain, its incredibly comfortable!

As for houses, I have one in the capital city too, but its currently under construction, haha!

I have one as well, and my wife and children have already moved in!

Boy, look at us, weve got everything we need now, why bother worshipping the Yellow God? Instead of wasting time on that, we might as well work more and earn some extra money!

I dont have time for your nonsense; were off to work on the road!

Right, right lets hurry! If were late, theyll dock our pay!

Watching the departing workers, Liu Chen became disheveled in the wind.

These people, who looked so shabby, were actually well-fed, clothed, and housed, living better than he did!

He fell into deep thought, wondering if he was approaching life all wrong.

After a while, several officers arrived.

One of the older officers asked, Did you just promote the Yellow Sky deity, claiming that the Azure Sky is already dead, the Yellow Sky will soon rise?

Liu Chen was somewhat afraid but defiantly said, So what if I did? Is that a crime?

It is indeed a crime! Youve been spreading heretical ideas and causing public disorder. Arrest him immediately!

Meanwhile, many followers of the Yellow Sky Sect were developing believers throughout the Great Xia region and were soon discovered and apprehended.

Some of the high-ranking leaders who were operating in secret were directly eliminated by Lin Beifan.

Thus, this heretical movement was snuffed out before it could gain any momentum.

Yellow Sky Sect Headquarters.

General Digong hurried in, Elder brother, the situation seems rather grim!

General Tiangong, who was dealing with official duties, looked up, Second brother, what has happened to make you so flustered?

Elder brother, you had me send people to various countries to expand our followers! So far, things have been going quite smoothly in Great Xue, Great Zhu, and Great Shi, but not in Great Xia. All the people we sent there have lost contact!

Is that so?

General Tiangong stood up, his brow furrowed with concern, It seems that Great Xia has been prepared for us!

Elder brother, what should we do now? General Digong asked urgently.

Although our initial efforts were not successful, we can send more people. I refuse to believe that we cannot conquer Great Xia! General Tiangong declared loudly.

Alright, elder brother, I know what to do now!
