<h4>Chapter 1974: Number One in the Kingdom of the Nine States!</h4>


    One hourter, the battle drew to a conclusion.


    The Kingdom of the Nine States United Army suffered around ten million deaths, but they slew over twenty million of their enemies.


    Both sides lost a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure each.


    However, the most important death that urred in this battle was that of the Heavenly Emotion Goddess.


    The Heavenly Temperature God and Heavenly ughter God both ran away. There was no prevention as no one could catch them.


    All in all, the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army had secured a brilliant victory, and morale had been significantly boosted. The most exciting thing to them was that even after the Heavenly Earth God interfered in the battle, they were still able to kill a Heavenly God.


    Perhaps if the Heavenly Earth God hadn’t appeared, critics would say that this was a worthless victory. The enemy BOSS hadn’t even appeared yet, so any victories she secured would be pointless as the enemy would retaliate and crush them sooner orter.


    But now, even the Heavenly Earth God had appeared to stop An Lin and Xu Xian from killing the Heavenly Gods, but An Lin was still able to hold him off while Xu Xian slew a Heavenly God right under the Heavenly Earth God’s nose. But now, what could the critics say? They couldn’t say anything!


    The Heavenly Earth God’s face was swollen from being pped!


    This was undoubtedly a wless heist.


    The entire Kingdom of the Nine States United Army was celebrating this victory.


    In a peculiar realm.


    Within an intricate and antiquated cabin.


    An exquisitely beautiful woman in a divine robe was fiddling around with a dao disc.


    “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I bring important news!” A gorgeous woman with a white snake tail rushed in with flushed cheeks and a scorching light burning in her eyes.


    “What is it?” The woman turned to her with a gentle expression.


    An icy beauty in a ck dress with a ck snake tail leaned on the doorframe. “In this current situation, any noteworthy news must be about the battle between the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army and the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army. Our forces have already been deployed to reinforce the eastern front, so what urgent news could there be?”


    White Spirit Snake immediately shook her head. “It’s different this time.”


    “What’s different? Did a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure die?” ck Spirit Snake’s brows furrowed slightly.


    “The Heavenly Emotion Goddess died,” White Spirit Snake replied.


    ck Spirit Snake’s expression shifted upon hearing this. “That is... indeed important news!”


    “Furthermore, the Heavenly Earth God appeared to try and protect her, but she was still in right before his very eyes!” White Spirit Snake was extremely excited.


    In contrast, ck Spirit Snake was shocked.


    Her Majesty Nuwa also put down her dao disc and faltered momentarily.


    It was quite clear that this had gone beyond her expectations as well.


    “Was it An Lin and Xu Xian?” Nuwa asked.


    “Yes!” White Spirit Snake nodded with bright, excited eyes. “An Lin held off the Heavenly Earth God while Xu Xian slew the Heavenly Emotion Goddess!”


    Nuwa smiled. “What a pleasant surprise!”


    ck Spirit Snake was even more dumbstruck. An Lin held off the Heavenly Earth God?! Was he that powerful already?


    In the eastern region of the Tai Chu Continent.


    Within Chen Xi City.


    The Celestial Thearch cut off his voice transmission talisman before looking up into the sky with a vacant expression.


    He then turned to Ye Ling, Xiao Ze, and Xiao Tu, who were already jumping for joy after receiving the same news he had just received. They weren’t boasting excessively about the Four Nine Immortal Sect, if anything, they were being modest!


    In the West Sea Alliance.


    Lan Xiaoni looked at the most recent news, and an ted smile appeared on her face.


    “Big Boss An Lin really is the best! He’s the most dazzling being no matter where he goes! Waah...” Lan Xiaoni sped a hand over her thumping heart while a faint smile appeared on her face. “I’m about to be your fangirl...”


    “When are youing to the West Sea? The Heavenly Sea God is already here, and I miss you so much...” The mermaid princess’ forlorn monologue rang out within the pce.


    News of the recently concluded battle began to spread like wildfire.


    The news was soon broadcasted by the media, upon which the entire Tai Chu Continent erupted.


    An Lin fought on par with the Heavenly Earth God!


    This piece of news had countless living beings’ eyeballs popping out of their sockets.


    What the hell was going on?


    An Lin was only on par with a normal Heavenly God not too long ago, but he could now fight on par with a paramount Heavenly God? What kind of hacks was he using?!


    Countless living beings were in disbelief.


    However, that didn’t stop An Lin from dominating all headlines!


    His name shook the entire continent again for the nth time, and countless living beings were in awe and veneration. This white-robed cultivator from the East was immortalized in legends once again.


    At the same time, Xu Xian’s epic feat in ying the Heavenly Emotion Goddess also made her a topic for conversation. The fact that she was revered as Great Empress Vermilion Bird by nine Dao Integration Stage Vermilion Birds shook the entire continent.


    Xu Xian was no longer just the goddess of the Tai Chu Continent; she was quickly bing the goddess of the entire Tai Chu Continent! Her Goddess halo was so bright that normal female cultivators had to avert their eyes or be crushed by a sense of inferiority.


    After witnessing the terrifying might disyed by An Lin and Xu Xian, many powerful forces across the entire Tai Chu Continent were now ranking the Four Nine Immortal Sect as the number one sect in the Kingdom of the Nine States, above the Heavenly Court.


    This was something that was not only acknowledged by all powerful forces, but also by the masses. The leader of the five great sects, the Four Nine Immortal Sect, had officially trumped the Heavenly Court to be the premier superpower of the Kingdom of the Nine States!


    Many Kingdom of the Nine States inhabitants sighed with emotion upon seeing this news.


    The Heavenly Court had been unsurpassed for countless years.


    However, the Four Nine Immortal Sect had only been established for just over a century, and they had already dethroned the Heavenly Court!


    Everyone was genuinely happy for the Four Nine Immortal Sect.


    This sect had created too many miracles and had always been the leading force in the war against the Heavenly Human Tribe. Furthermore, the Four Nine Immortal Sect had done so much for itinerant cultivators across the entire continent and in so many enemies, as well as sacrificed so many elders and disciples during this war.


    Their meteoric rise represented the rise and resurgence of the human race, as well as the infinite possibilities the human race could create, thereby bringing hope to the entire human race. For everything it had done, it was very much deserving of its current status!


    Even the Heavenly Court immortals were quite ted upon hearing this news and admitted that the Four Nine Immortal Sect had indeed be a superior force.


    Some of the tycoon immortals even boasted to their friends about how they had once sampled Sect Leader An Lin’s cooking.


    Other tycoon immortals retorted by saying that not only had they sampled Sect Leader An Lin’s cooking, they had also sampled the Divine Phoenix Maiden’s cooking! Everyone burst intoughter as they conversed.


    Speaking of which, this Chef God couple had very strong connections with the Heavenly Court.


    All of the immortals could still remember the two tender little newbies from back in the day. Before they knew it, the two delicate little seedlings had grown up to be massive trees that obscured the entire sky. Who would have thought that the couple cooking for a living in the Heavenly Court would now be the beacon of hope for the entire Tai Chu Continent?


    One dayter.


    The Heavenly Court released an official statement congratting the Four Nine Immortal Sect on their brilliant des as well as expressing the hope that the Four Nine Immortal Sect would continue to lead the Kingdom of the Nine States and the human race to victory in this ongoing war.


    The Four Nine Immortal Sect was now officially number one in the Kingdom of the Nine States!
