Chapter 174.1

Sword Elder sheathed his divine sword and walked back.

The various generals and experts of Great Xia were very excited.

Sword Elder, you won, you defeated a Grandmaster!

How did you do it?

Can you tell us about it?

To everyones compliments, Sword Elder just gave a faint smile and then kept silent.

Didnt he know his own strength?

That old monk had already reached Grandmaster cultivation, and he had even cultivated the Golden Bell Shield to the 11th level, capable of forming an indestructible body with a defense that could be called invincible.

If he doesnt break through to Grandmaster, hell never have a chance to injure the opponent.

The previous two strikes are clear proof of that.

He suspects that there might be a powerful Grandmaster senior secretly lending his strength to him.

As for who it is, he has no idea.

The other party hasnt shown their face, obviously not wanting outsiders to know.

Therefore, Sword Elder chooses to keep silent; after all, this matter is beneficial for Great Xia.

Seeing the silent demeanor of Sword Elder, everyone didnt mind because thats how he usually is.

Then, the three generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong led their troops to raid the capital city.

Great Feng didnt resist at all; instead, they opened their city gates wide and allowed them to enter, with the sole condition being that the people in the city, especially the royal family and the civil and military officials, were not to be harmed.

Great Xia agreed without hesitation.

Why kill them?

Making a fortune is the real intention!

So, they entered the city and plundered all the gold, silver, jewels, and food, loading them onto carts and transporting them back to Great Xia.

The royal family and officials of Great Feng could only watch in frustration, powerless to do anything.

It is said that the Emperor of Great Feng fainted from anger after seeing his national treasury and private treasury being emptied.

This news spread quickly throughout the land, and everyone felt sympathy for Great Feng.

Great Feng is so pitiful; even deploying a Grandmaster was useless!

All the gold, silver, jewels, and food in the capital city have been looted; Great Feng has become poor overnight!

Thats still okay; at least they kept their lives!

It seems that Great Xia really shouldnt be provoked! Otherwise, Great Fengs today could be our tomorrow!

I bet the Emperor of Great Feng is regretting it so much his guts are turning green!

Upon hearing this news, the leader of the Demon Sect, Zi Liuli, couldnt help but laugh.

Military Strength: 2.4 million (20 Innates, 6500 martial artists)

Comprehensive National Power: 7500 (Quasi-Dynasty level)

Among these, the Territorial Area increased by 3 million square li, and Arable land increased by 1.5 million square li.

In terms of resources, there was an increase of more than 400 million taels of silver, nearly a 50% increase.

As for other aspects, there were not many changes.

It was these two resource increases that led to a nearly 1000 point increase in national power.

Ding! Due to the players growth in national power, your strength has increased synchronously, rewarding Mysterious Yin Twelve Swords!

Legend has it that there is a sword realm that gathers all the wisdom of swordsmanship. However, swords are divided into good and evil, and within this realm, power is also divided into good and evil! Among them, the sword pool gathers all evil thoughts, giving birth to the most terrifying Mysterious Yin Twelve Swords!

This is the origin of the Mysterious Yin Twelve Swords, a sword technique not of this world!

Lin Beifan quickly absorbed this sword technique.

It must be said that this sword technique was not only terrifying but also domineering, even more powerful than any sword technique he had learned before by a margin.

It was the most evil sword technique in the world!

If this technique fell into the hands of others, it would surely lead them to become demonically possessed, causing wanton slaughter and bringing about a great calamity.

Fortunately, he was already a Great Grandmaster, so he was able to master this sword technique.

This harvest isnt bad! Lin Beifan smiled slightly.

Half a month passed, and the troops of Great Xia returned from their campaign against Feng.

Lin Beifan rewarded everyone for their contributions, making everyone beam with joy and thank the Emperor.

Looking at the national treasury filled with gold, silver, and jewels and at the granaries brimming with grain, Lin Beifan said to Heshen with a smile: Minister, you were worried about the grain before, but look, isnt it replenished now?

Your Majestys words are most true! Heshen laughed.

Through the plundering of Great Feng, Great Xia had acquired a lot of grain, more than enough to feed the entire nation.

This made his job as the Minister of Revenue much easier.

Now, we have the land, the people, the resources, and the food, so next, we must vigorously develop our domestic economy, strengthen our nation, and quickly enrich our people!

Following that, Lin Beifan issued orders in an orderly fashion.
