Girl, there's something wrong with you

On a deserted island overseas, between giant stone thrones.

The immortal elder floats in the air, his clothes move without wind, his eyes are invisible and majestic, and they cast their sights into the unknown distance.

An indistinguishable male and female monk with red lips and white teeth slowly walked into the basin from a distance, walking between boulders and sparks.

"They have reached an evolutionary tipping point," the monk said.

"My Lord already knows." The immortal elder said slowly, "And sooner or later they...will cross that boundary."

"Why?" the monk asked.

"Because the earth is limited, but the universe is infinite." The immortal elder replied, "Under infinite time, sooner or later they will get tired of everything and have to seek final evolution."

"Indeed." The monk said quietly, "What's more important is that you will not lose."

"As long as they don't evolve, they can't leave this planet, so you just have to keep waiting."

The immortal elder did not refute, but fell silent.

In the Wuchang Admiral's Mansion, Cheng Jinyang slowly woke up from his dream.

Finally, the first product!

Ah Zhi, Miss Wang, Qing Qing, Wang Shu, Cui Xiaoniang, Teacher Li, Sister Xiao Pei, and Yun Yun, all of them were promoted to the first level after practicing their powers almost equally.

The princess sister, Xiao Li, Ashu, Ye Ru and Jiang Jiu, while protecting everyone in the dream, also entered the first-level realm.

The only exception was Xiao Linhu. Because Cheng Jinyang was initially concerned about her camp and did not let her join the leveling plan in the dream, the progress was much slower than everyone else.

But it doesn’t matter, according to Miss Wang, with the current number of people, as long as the connection status is turned on, it is enough to challenge mother!

"How do you feel after being promoted to the first rank?" Cheng Jinyang asked.

"No." Xing Yunzhi replied, "It seems to be no different from usual."

"The bloodline tester can no longer detect it." Li Qingwan said with a smile.

"Really? Let me try." Cui Xiaoniang took the blood tester from Teacher Li and measured it on her neck.

Indeed, the numbers no longer pop up on the screen.

"The reason is very simple, because this electronic screen can only display 10 digits." Sister Xiaopei reminded everyone, "The first-grade threshold is 10 billion, and it requires 11 digits to display, so the instrument can no longer display it."

"Indeed." Yun Yun counted them carefully and said in a dumbfounded voice.

The eight girls began to chatter and discuss, such as what changes would happen to the abilities after being promoted to the first level, how the family would react after learning the news, etc.

Yang Wangshu also joked, saying that since we are all at the first level, is the idea of ​​​​the five-surname family outdated? What title would be better to change next?

"Eight Heavenly Dragons?" Yunyun suggested.

"This is a Buddhist term, so the meaning is a bit unclear." Teacher Li said with a smile, "How about the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea?"

"First-class superpowers are the pinnacle of the human world's power system." Qingqing suddenly thought, "How about letting Jinyang set up the position of general of the Zhuguo? From now on, we will be the guardians of the human race, the eight Zhuguo. General."

Cheng Jinyang was brushing his teeth in the bathroom and almost burst into tears when he heard the discussion outside.

Now that the Eight Pillar Kingdoms are here, will the eight major families dominate the empire and be ready to seek power and usurp the throne to persecute my heirs?

Ridiculous!

After I ascend the throne, I will strike hard like Brother Zhu Yuanzhang and get rid of all the rebellious officials and traitors among my relatives!

He finished brushing his teeth and went out to prepare for breakfast when he saw the princess sister walking towards him from the opposite door.

"We finally reached the first level." She lazily raised her arms and tied up her wavy blond hair from behind her head. "When are you planning to go on the Northern Expedition?"

"Within a week." Cheng Jinyang replied, "It's time to see my mother."

"Alas." Sister Princess tied up her hair and sighed, "Indeed, I haven't seen the teacher for a long time."

"Going to have breakfast?" Cheng Jinyang invited.

"Let's go." Sister Princess looked around, "When do you plan to have a showdown with them about the Luling matter?"

"After I defeat my mother." Cheng Jinyang replied.

The princess sister sighed. Indeed, two princesses from one family is too sensational.

But it would be much more normal if the princess became a descendant of the previous dynasty and the groom became the current emperor.

Speaking of which, for the Sima family to have such an ending, it can be regarded as a happy ending... If it were not Cheng Jinyang who was related by marriage, but another contender who won the power struggle, I don't know what to do to the Sima family of the previous dynasty. Going under the knife.

Not to mention other things, it is enough to punish the entire clan just by labeling them as demons and catastrophes and the fall of the Central Plains.

Thinking of the rebellious Shenwu Army clan officers, the princess sister couldn't help but become angry again.

After breakfast, Cheng Jinyang went to summon the shogunate and generals to announce the official start of the second round of the Northern Expedition!

In this Northern Expedition, the troops were divided into two groups:

The main force was the Beifu Army located at Jingkou. With the cooperation of the Qiaoqi Army, they went northward and attacked the Kaifeng Plain along the Yangtze and Huaihe River systems, and then pushed into the Heluo area to fight with their mother in Luoyang.

The left wing was held by the Longxiang Army occupying Nanyang. It came out from Fangcheng Xia Road and invaded Yingru Land to ensure the safety of the left wing of the Beifu Army route.

The right wing is held by the Qiaoqi Army defending Xuzhou, responsible for the security of the defense line in the eastern part of Yuzhou.

Then the three armies met in Kaifeng and invaded Heluo!

As for the specific tactical plan, there is no need to go into details here.

Since Zhou Ding had been discussed for a long time, the shogunate and the generals did not hesitate. After decisively accepting the order, they left the conference room and began intense and methodical war preparations.

Corresponding news of the Northern Expedition also reached the ears of the Jiankang gentry from Wuchang.

For a time, there was an endless stream of visitors from the five surnamed families, plus the Chu, Yang, and Xing families, and the eight major families came to ask if the second round of the Northern Expedition was true.

You know, if we can capture Heluo, it means that the demon regime in the Central Plains will lose its momentum.

By then, the land of Hebei can be taken to the east, and Guanzhong and Jinzhong can be taken to the west, and most of Jiankang's supernatural families are from these areas.

Recovering the old land and returning home is an extremely exciting thing! It’s no wonder that everyone is so excited to find out.

Facing the almost overwhelming visits and temptations from the nobles, the eight major families all adopted a unanimous attitude.

It’s hard to say, why don’t you ask the rightful owner?

The nobles whose political sense was not keen enough actually turned around and visited the Cheng family in the divine capital.

After hearing this answer, some prominent families knew that the Northern Expedition was a certainty.

You must know that the Cheng family of the divine capital was originally from the Heluo area!

If you ask Cheng Jinyang if he wants to regain his Cheng clan's land, what else can he say?

Stable!
