Chapter 1043 - 271: Delivering Remains at the Ceremony, Moon God Assists (6k)
Back in the day, this senior also had the Realm of the Ninth Tier.
Unfortunately, later he was used as a negative example to educate the royal descendants.
Regardless, it is always a good thing for a predecessor strongman of the Imperial Family to have his remains collected by someone, and they must accept the favor of others.
The Prince of Dali was very courteous and had a warm personality.
After all, it was the Dali royal family that truly embodied brotherly harmony, with a very harmonious atmosphere.
The Crown Prince of Dali was indeed quite kind to his younger siblings and older siblings.
And among other brothers, sisters, nephews, and nieces, no one even thought of competing with the Crown Prince.
If anyone was instigating, they probably wouldn't need to make it public, as they would close the door at home and drown the person inciting them in the flowerbed.
No conflicts of interest, and naturally, the atmosphere became harmonious.
Watching the kind-hearted and gentle Prince of Dali leave, Yu Ziqing finally remembered where the sense of déjà vu came from during storytelling days ago.
Those story writers of Daqian had directly copied the story of harmonious sibling relations from the Dali royal family, made slight changes, and applied it on Daqian, then published it straight away.
Goodness, weren't those scriptwriters beaten to death by the people of Daqian?
Yu Ziqing, with a hint of regret in his eyes, adjusted his smile and went to seek those forces one by one.
The number of remains he collected in the Abyss was quite substantial.
Many had identification or left letters, warning future generations not to covet Immortal Herbs, or they would die inexplicably and possibly bring calamity to their family.
The remains of these people did not carry the aura of a Bloodline Curse on them, not sure where they came from back then.
For those whose origins could be confirmed, Yu Ziqing would return their skeletons, doing a favor effortlessly.
Especially returning all their remaining belongings intact, particularly letters.
He wanted everyone to engrave the phrase "covet Immortal Herbs and meet a bad end" into their ancestral teachings.
The remains he collected were numerous, with both humans and demons, and for humans, most could trace back to their forces, be it sects or families.
But there were also some whose families or sects had already vanished into history.
For these people, Yu Ziqing intended to build a cemetery outside Jinlan Mountain for them, and then erect a monument to specify what their former power was and why they had Fallen.
As for the Demon Clan, if they still had a large clan or group, then he would return the remains to them.
From ancient times to the present, it may have been tens of thousands of years, finding only dozens or up to a hundred Ninth Tier Sea of Consciousnesses, which feels not much.
But bringing out dozens of Ninth Tier remains at once, the impact is absolutely enough to reverse the general perception of Immortal Herbs.
As to whether there are still people with lucky thoughts, that's not something Yu Ziqing could manage.
He only needs to let most people know that even if an Immortal Herb was placed in front of them, it's best not to harbor any ill intentions.
Excluding the strong who died of old age, tracing the entire world back two thousand years, there were not this many powerful ones who died in such numbers.
Yu Ziqing initially intended to deliver the remains door-to-door to each family.
But it was just too troublesome, requiring several years at the least.
Coincidentally, the new emperor of Daqian ascended to the throne, gathering so many major forces at once, and could deliver most of them in one go.
The remaining ones could gradually be sent by Yu Ziqing.
There's no telling, within those remains, there might be some legacy left for the younger generations or some treasures.
If it's the Demon Clan, they're sure to gain great benefits.
Yu Ziqing didn't care much about these and thoroughly refrained from plundering.
He hoped instead that those who welcomed back their family elder's remains would gain something good.
If asking for a favor, then be thorough about it and just purely do a good deed.
Yu Ziqing handed over a round of remains and eventually found Song Chengyue.
Old Song frowned, looking conflicted, as if constipated.
"New emperor's ascension ceremony, you're here doing... these things..."
The new emperor's ascension, you come delivering remains, handing in a bunch, is this appropriate?
Not deliberately causing trouble to disgust people, they have no choice but to pinch their noses and give you a thumbs up?
Yu Ziqing took out a Storage Bag and handed it to Song Chengyue.
"There are two remains inside, one is a member of the Daqian royal family, and the other should have been a member of the Jinyi Wei, both with Ninth Tier power when alive.
I speculate it should be from ten thousand years ago, specifically unknown."
Song Chengyue was left speechless.
The new emperor, upon knowing this, regardless of his true feelings, had to politely thank and offer substantial gifts to express gratitude.
Most cultivators, even loose cultivators, when their lifespan is nearing its end, would think of accepting a disciple to leave behind a legacy.
If they were strong, especially with powers behind them, their greatest worry would be Falling abroad.
First, there's no way to return to their roots, dying abroad, horrendously pitiful.
Second, there might be some significant legacy or newly comprehended knowledge that would be directly lost.
Thirdly, for certain forces, the remains of these strongmen serve as important foundations of the sect.
Regardless of psychology or profit, it's all significant losses.
Song Chengyue reluctantly accepted, pinching his nose, and left with the Storage Bag to report to the new emperor.
What the new emperor thought was unknown, but outwardly, he felt much emotional, improvised on the spot, and robustly praised Yu Ziqing.
After verifying that one of the royal predecessors was indeed a Ninth Tier Strong, he promptly, with great ceremony, sent it to the ancestral land, seizing the opportunity to pull closer to royal family members.
