Master Sun looked troubled, but after a performance, he gritted his teeth and agreed, telling His Majesty: these large-scale Magical Instruments are not only expensive but also have a long and difficult refining process. However, if His Majesty wants it, he will find a way to remove the Triple Heaven Large-Scale Magical Instruments from the fortresses blocking Copper Gorge and install them on His Majesty’s Flying Carriage Palaces!
If you look at this matter alone, this ruler and his subject are indeed a pair of fools!
But the Emperor was extremely satisfied, thinking that Sun Aiqing was indeed his loyal minister. So he urged Owen Bertram to start moving faster. Fifth Prince had boasted about the Triple Heaven Large-Scale Magical Instruments in front of him, and he was full of anticipation for these instruments’ ability to hunt high-level Demon Beasts.
The Emperor’s cultivation is mediocre. Even with various Magical Instruments from the Royal Secret Treasury, he can only hunt Tire-3 Demonic Beasts - seeing Tire-4 Demon Beasts now makes him itch.
Master Sun secretly snickered. Although Master Lane forced this difficult task upon Master Sun, Owen Bertram had the ability to turn disadvantage into advantage. Such as the matter of the Emperor hunting at Copper Gorge Extinction Domain, the Emperor had the protection of the Sixth Great Realm, and several Flying Carriage Palaces were equipped with Triple Heaven Large-Scale Magical Instruments, forming a powerful and terrifying elimination team!
In Copper Gorge Extinction Domain, there were already several teams from the Summit Metropolitan Office responsible for cleaning up Demon Beasts and preventing "outbreaks of Demon Beast groups".
His Majesty’s participation would greatly relieve the pressure on the Summit Metropolitan Office’s Hunting Teams. Moreover, with the Emperor staying here for a long time, and only Fifth Prince accompanying him, the other princes would eventually realize this and come over with their high-ranked cultivators, joining the Emperor’s hunting team!
They would provide free labor for Master Sun to exterminate Demon Beasts.
Also, before the Emperor arrived, Master Sun had already prepared and reforged Triple Heaven Large-Scale Magical Instruments in advance, claiming they were taken from the fortress, as the Emperor wouldn’t personally inspect the fortress himself.
In less than half a day, the first "Triple Heaven Heavy Crossbow" was installed on the Flying Carriage Palaces, and the process was very smooth, making Fifth Prince secretly suspect that Owen Bertram had reserved various interfaces while refining the Flying Carriage Palaces...
Unable to wait, the Emperor ordered the Flying Carriage Palaces to enter Copper Gorge Extinction Domain - Master Sun was also very capable, ordering all the beast hunting teams under the jurisdiction of the Summit Metropolitan Office to cooperate with His Majesty’s hunt, and soon drove a Tire-4 Demon Beast right underneath His Majesty’s Flying Carriage Palaces.
His Majesty hastily learned the operation method of the Triple Heaven Heavy Crossbow, but due to his mediocrity, he missed four consecutive shots, causing the Tire-4 Demon Beast to flee wildly.
With some hunting experience now, the Emperor adjusted his breathing and mindset, finally hitting the target with the fifth arrow. The powerful Tire-4 Demon Beast collapsed with a mournful cry, and the surrounding sycophants, Fifth Prince, and Owen Bertram cheered for the Emperor’s might and victory. The Emperor’s face flushed with excitement, his sense of satisfaction and accomplishment overflowing!
The Emperor settled down in the Summit Metropolitan Office, enjoying his stay without yearning for home.
Back in the capital, there was a total uproar - the Emperor’s adventure in the Extinction Domain was one thing, but now he was actually risking his life! Various memorials were continuously sent to the Emperor’s traveling palace, urging him to return to the capital, advising him to prioritize state affairs, begging him to cherish his own safety and not to stay in danger, and condemning Owen Bertram as a "Great Traitor" who misled the Emperor, making him a sinner against the Great Wu Dynasty!
The Emperor ignored them all, happily playing in Copper Gorge.
Master Sun didn’t care about the clamor from those censors either. During this time, he wholeheartedly transformed those several Flying Carriage Palaces, installing one Triple Heaven Large-Scale Magical Instrument after another. The Emperor had "new toys" every day and grew fonder and fonder of Master Sun.
