“We need to prove to everyone that we possess enough power to deserve everything we now hold,” the divine light flickered in Yu Xunya’s eyes as he rose with his hand on his sword, repeating the statement.
He understood Qi Yuanjing’s intention now, and so did the other officers present.
Their gazes turned towards Qi Yuanjing, who was speaking solemnly, and they couldn’t help but feel nervous.
Indeed, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty seemed to be thriving more and more, but let alone comparing it to the immortal sects, it couldn’t even surpass those ancient great powers.
But they had gained so much and attracted so much attention, especially now, in the face of such significant interests from the War of Sealing Gods. Could other forces really be willing to let them take away such enormous benefits?
Even with the attention of other True Immortals, these forces wouldn’t resort to many Underworld tactics, but undoubtedly, if the Great Ming Divine Dynasty itself didn’t strive enough to show a matching power, it would naturally be questioned and dissatisfied by other forces.
In the Cultivation World, Laws dictate that the powerhouse owns everything. Even with the support of True Immortals, if the Great Ming Divine Dynasty could not prove sufficient achievements and power to warrant their possession, they would be plundered by others.
In the face of such a situation, even the Shenxiao True Monarch supporting them from behind couldn’t speak out, because these are the rules of Between Heaven and Earth, which no one can defy.
“Therefore, we need to march forth quickly and secure a victory to declare to all corners of Between Heaven and Earth that the Great Ming Divine Dynasty possesses enough strength and is worthy of the True Immortal’s support,” Qi Yuanjing spoke to Wang Boan with a bowed head, “What you say comes from the heart, please, Grand Commander, forgive me.”
Now he was considering not just the military but also the political implications, which were originally what Wang Boan didn’t want them to get involved in.
Despite the recent rise of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, the internal struggles between Civil Officials and military heroes never ceased. Wang Boan didn’t want the Border Army involved in these, always preventing them from voicing such opinions, actually for their good to avoid entangling them in pointless struggles.
However, this matter involved significant issues, and Qi Yuanjing didn’t know whether his Grand Commander had seen through this or understood but chose to remain silent. Regardless, he was sincerely devoted to the Divine Dynasty, so even at the risk of taboo, he wasn’t willing to defy his conscience.
“Grand Commander, what Yuanjing said is for the sake of the Divine Dynasty, please forgive him,” Gu Ji was the first to speak up and plea for Qi Yuanjing.
“Please, Grand Commander, forgive him!” Yu Xunya and the other officers hurriedly pleaded as well.
This Grand Commander had controlled the Border Army for hundreds of years, deeply respected, and strict in command, so they all worried about Qi Yuanjing facing punishment.
“Hahaha, do you all really think me to be so unreasonable?” Wang Boan looked at everyone pleading, not showing any displeasure at being cornered, instead, he laughed heartily.
The many officers were somewhat puzzled and didn’t understand his intention, but Gu Ji, his longtime friend, soon grasped what Wang Boan meant.
He realized why Wang Boan had asked Qi Yuanjing, because he already knew and understood Qi Yuanjing’s thoughts and character, and so he had used Qi Yuanjing’s words to clarify this matter.
“Brother Bo’an, why go about it this way?” Gu Ji asked with slight frown, “With your prestige in the Border Army, whatever decision you wish to make, no one dares to disobey, so why bother using Yuanjing’s words to speak?”
All the officers present were core members of the Border Army, thankfully Gu Ji had no reservations, and his words, though somewhat taboo, seemed entirely appropriate considering Wang Bo’an’s stature.
Indeed with his prestige, he could have been direct, so why beat around the bush.
“Even now, with the soldiers of the Border Army high in spirits and the army’s heart strong, we must not become complacent,” Wang Boan’s face turned solemn, the smile fading as he said, “Though the Great Ming Divine Dynasty seems flourishing, it’s like a fiery oil pan. If we start the Conferred God War unfavorably, our Divine Dynasty will inevitably face unimaginable criticisms, and I must use this to enforce strict military discipline, but I must see what attitude you all hold.”

Indeed, he possessed supreme authority in the Border Army, but facing such high morale, Wang Boan couldn’t just dampen their spirits without reason. Some things, if the officers couldn’t understand on their own, even his commands would be futile.
However, ultimately, he wasn’t wrong about these officers he appreciated, who didn’t disappoint his training. At a critical moment, they could differentiate priorities, which greatly satisfied him.
Even as a commander, he needed these officers to help him direct the vast army, especially the command of millions in the Border Army that also depended on these officers directing the lower-ranking officers to truly manage such a large force.
Even in the Strongest Realm, Wang Boan might create Avatars, but he couldn’t replicate Pei Xuanjing’s feat of creating thousands of avatars.
Moreover, even so, the avatars had time lags in transmitting information, requiring on-the-spot adjustments. For the Supreme Strong Wang Boan in the Strongest Realm, it was a huge drain, and unless necessary, he certainly wouldn’t want to resort to such methods.
