Toast to the bright moon

Traversing the Nine Provinces in the Immortal Cultivation World, Lu Yuan possessed the Dao Fruit of longevity, an eternal lifespan. If he were careful, he could anticipate the Immortal Method.
This was indeed a beautiful thing.
However, he was born during the Age of Dharma Decline, with spiritual energy depleted and the Immortal Method difficult. The great path was elusive.
Even worse, the Immortal Cultivation World of the Nine Provinces was on the verge of collapse, and the four poles were about to fall, marking the end of an era.
If that was the case, why shouldn't a man take up his sword and conquer fifty states across the mountains?
To survive in the Age of Dharma Decline, Lu Yuan cultivated the ancient Way of Control Pneuma, established an Immortal Dynasty, and gathered Qi Luck. He brought order to the Nine Provinces and peace to the four seas.
Gathering strength from across the world, he ascended to immortality step by step.
In ancient times, there were three Human Emperors: Hua Guang, Xia Xi, and Hao Tian.
Who is the Human Emperor now?
It is Emperor Chu Luyuan.

To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

But once truly driven to desperation, if both sides backstab, it would be an unimaginable catastrophe for the court.


They don't even have to backstab; if Jihui the Holy Monk and Qiao Kangquan withdraw, the front line battlefield would not have the support of these two Inborn Grandmasters, and this Northern Expedition would not be possible.


At that time, even if Lu Yuan's surprise attack succeeds and he retakes Xichuan County, what would be the significance for the court?


Therefore, the Eastern Three Prefectures of Xichuan County is a bottom line for the court and cannot be ceded.


However, in response to Bai Mengyang's words, Lu Yuan said, "I am well aware of the contributions of Holy Monk Jihui and Qiao Family Head, so this demand for the Eastern Three Prefectures is not entirely for making exorbitant demands, but also for compensation."
