The Legend of the Condor Heroes - Chapter 240: The Choice (Part 1)

"Rise..." Li Ting, mimicking the emperors he had seen on television, slowly raised his hands to signal the high-ranking officials to stand up. He then sat on the throne, with Zhao Xian's corpse under his feet.
Lin Jiaxin smiled with relief and murmured to herself, "Master has finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish. Now all he needs to do is return to Su Qing's side. But back then..." Lin Jiaxin showed a hint of weariness again, as if she was worried that Li Ting would leave her side soon.
"Xin'er, his name is Li Ting, then... then what about my Zongbao?" the old lady asked.
Lin Jiaxin turned her head and said softly, "Grandma, a name is just a title, you don't need to worry so much. You know, we usually call him Yang Guo."
"Yang Guo?" The old lady was even more confused. She remembered that Yang Guo was the young man who became famous after killing Kublai Khan. How could he be her grandson? Too many doubts made more wrinkles appear on the old lady's face. She smiled and decided not to think about these things. Perhaps it was true, as she said, that a name was just a title and that she didn't need to think about it so much.
The matter at the Golden Palace has been resolved. Now, as long as the seventy-two Iron Banner armies are under control, the overall situation is essentially settled. Whether or not they can be controlled is not Li Ting's concern. He has absolute confidence that his women can handle the seventy-two Iron Banner armies, and even if more armies come, it won't be a problem!
Li Ting stood up and descended the steps, the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand still dripping with the blood of the treacherous minister, leaving a trail of blood on the ground. Standing outside the Golden Palace, Li Ting gazed towards the city gate. Seeing the gate tower filled with guards, he used his lightness skill to fly over like a dragon. Looking at the guards on the gate, Li Ting initially thought they were going to confront Shi Feixuan, who was guarding the south gate, but instead, he saw Shi Feixuan standing right in the middle of them.
Wearing a dragon robe, Li Ting slowly descended into the crowd. The guards were stunned when they saw Li Ting's dragon robe. The head guard, who was the man who had let Li Ting and the others in earlier, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Guard Captain Hu Si greets Your Majesty!"
The other guards immediately realized that a mutiny had occurred, and since they were all loyal to Hussein, there was no reason for them not to bow down since he had done so. They also hurriedly bowed and said, "Guards pay their respects to Your Majesty!"
"No need to be so polite with me," Li Ting smiled and asked, "Feixuan, how's the situation here?"
Shi Feixuan pointed ahead and said, "Just now, more than two hundred Iron Banner Army soldiers attacked, but I have already repelled them. The situation at the other city gates is the same. In a soldier-to-soldier battle, they are indeed very strong, but unfortunately they ran into a few of us." Shi Feixuan secretly glanced at Li Ting and saw that he looked like a completely different person after putting on the dragon robe, unusually energetic. Her heart, which had been hanging in mid-air, was finally at ease. Her purpose in coming down the mountain was very simple, which was to assist a true dragon to ascend to the throne of the emperor, and Li Ting, whom she had chosen, had completed this task.
Looking at the mangled corpses beneath the city gates, Li Ting smiled with satisfaction and said, "When they attack again, we'll issue a surrender order. They can't possibly refuse." After a pause, Li Ting said to Hu Si, "Send someone to the other three gates to inform them that as soon as the Iron Banner Army attacks the city, you should issue a surrender order. Those who refuse to surrender will be killed without mercy, while those who surrender will retain their official positions and receive an additional hundred taels of gold."
"With His Majesty's words... they would absolutely not dare to act recklessly again!" Hus hurriedly ordered three guards to go to the other three city gates to deliver the message.
With the Golden Palace secured and the Iron Banner Army dealt with, the entire capital would be under Li Ting's control. All that remained was to announce his ascension to the throne to the world. Li Ting believed that with his prestige in the martial arts world and among the common people of Xiangyang, very few would dare to launch a rebellion.
Li Ting understood the saying "water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it" very well. So what he needed to do now was to issue new policies that would benefit the people and make them tools to consolidate his rule!
Li Ting revealed a satisfied smile, and then flew towards the Golden Palace like a dragon.
To prevent the Iron Banner Army from persecuting his ministers, Li Ting deliberately left them on the main road leading out of the city gate. This served two purposes: first, to let them witness the martial arts skills of his women, and second, to make them understand that he would not become a tyrant, but rather a wise and benevolent ruler.
By noon, the vast majority of the Iron Flag Army had surrendered, while the remaining small number were hanged as rebels.
The edict announcing Li Ting's ascension to the throne was also carried by envoys to every corner of the Southern Song Dynasty.
No! This land is no longer called the Southern Song Dynasty; it has been renamed "Da Li" by Li Ting.
By the end of the day, Lin'an seemed to have been washed with blood, filled with the stench of blood everywhere, especially the Golden Palace. Li Ting had already sent the Dowager Empress back to her residence, and he promised to exonerate Yang An and the other members of the Yang family and restore their original titles.
After dealing with these matters, it was already evening. A somewhat exhausted Li Ting sat on the throne in the Golden Palace. Zhao Xian's body had long been dragged away and buried, and the entire Golden Palace had been washed by palace maids. However, the heavy smell of blood seemed to be impossible to clean up so quickly. Perhaps this was the meaning of the saying "one general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand."
Looking at the golden dragon robe he was wearing, Li Ting seemed to feel that the responsibility it carried was too heavy. He was just a college student about to graduate, and he didn't know why he had transmigrated into the world of Condor Heroes. He never expected that after one encounter after another, he would have reached this point and become the emperor of a new dynasty. Li Ting didn't know if this had changed history, but he didn't care. As long as he was happy, that was all that mattered. But at this moment... would he be happy?
Li Tingchao glanced back and said, "You've been staring at me for so long, come out already."
"I'm sorry, Master's thoughts have started to waver again. Xin'er just came out out of curiosity," Lin Jiaxin appeared naked in front of Li Ting with her head down.
“My identity has changed so much in one day, I’m a little unaccustomed to it,” Li Ting said with a smile.
Lin Jiaxin placed her hand on Li Ting's cheek, gently stroking it, and asked, "Does Master realize that what he likes is freedom, rather than sitting here every day attending morning court sessions and discussing state affairs?"
“Yeah, you know me best,” Li Ting laughed out loud.
"Master, do you still remember what Xin'er said before? As long as you obtain the Ten Famous Weapons and cultivate the Tenth Form of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, the Famous Weapon Opening Heaven, then you can open the gate to the Immortal Realm of Lust. You just need to tell the guide your wish." As she spoke, Lin Jiaxin's eyes revealed a lot of reluctance.
“Perhaps I really don’t like being an emperor,” Li Ting stood up and said. “I have only found eight of the most famous artifacts. There are still two I haven’t found. If I really want to find them, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.”
"We only need to find the owner of one of the two famous treasures, the snail and the basin. Master, do you remember what Lin Chaoying told you? She said that she would tell you how to find the extremely rare treasure, the basin, when the time is right. If that's true, then let Xin'er take care of finding the snail."
“I have indeed heard her mention it,” Li Ting glanced back at Lin Jiaxin and said calmly, “Can you really find the famous snail?”
“Yes, I’m sure!” Lin Jiaxin replied.
“Alright, I’ll go find Chaoying now. I want to know how she helped me find the famous instrument basin,” Li Ting smiled and whistled.
Not long after, the divine eagle flew into the palace.
Li Ting mounted the divine eagle, patted its neck, and said, "Brother Eagle, on our way back to Zhongnan Mountain, don't tell me you'll get lost again!"
The eagle let out two low cries, then carried Li Ting out of the Golden Palace and flew towards Zhongnan Mountain.
Lin Jiaxin was left alone in the Golden Palace. She slowly floated up, transforming into Su Qing's appearance. Her sorrowful eyes gazed out of the palace as she murmured, "Master... if Lin Chaoying helps you find the basin... then that will be the time for us to part... I will remember your kindness to me for the rest of my life..."
Sitting atop the divine eagle, Li Ting was wide awake. Watching the sun set and the moon rise in the east, the worry on his face remained. A difficult choice confronted him. If he truly gathered all ten famous artifacts, cultivated the Heaven-Opening Technique, and opened the gates to the Realm of Lust, what should he choose? Should he remain in the palace as emperor, enduring the tiresome memorials, or heed Li Mochou's words and head to the Realm of Lust for ecstasy? Or should he return to the modern world to reunite with Su Qing?
This is perhaps the most difficult choice Li Ting has ever faced since birth. No matter which one she chooses, Li Ting will have to lose something, it's just a matter of how much or how little.
