Chapter 1 The Return Of The Heavenly King

• Northern Desert.
• Barren land.
• Tens of thousands of cavalry clashed, swords and guns clashing.
• Countless ravens circled above the cypress trees, their broken wings screeching.
• The setting sun resembled blood.
• An ancient city wall stood tall in the distance.
• Forming a massive steel barrier.
• On the city wall, a black flag fluttered in the wind, emitting a crisp sound.
• The blood-stained words "Zhenbei" ignited the passion in people's hearts, driving them to pursue ultimate glory!
• "Howling Moon Cavalry!"
• "Fierce Tiger Cavalry!"
• "Inky Dragon Cavalry!"
• "Ashen Feather Cavalry!"
• "Formation complete!"
• Thousands of cavalry raised their arms and shouted, their momentum soaring.
• Their excited gazes focused on the man standing on the city wall.
• His name was Ning Beichuan!
• His title, Zhenbei Heavenly King!
• He was the backbone of Da Xia, a valiant general in the military, commanding the Four Great Cavalries and ruling over the Eight Directions!
• He was also their king, the king of the Northern Territory!
• For ten years, he had driven back the Qiang enemies.
• Sweeping across mountains and rivers, defeating millions of enemy cavalry, and achieving complete victory in the final decisive battle!
• With a single sword, he had dominated the various nations, controlled the Three Mountains, swept the Six Regions, established the Four Great Cavalries, and became invincible, his reputation spreading far and wide.
• Now, he was about to depart.
• Leaving this land and returning to his homeland.
• In search of his... seven sisters!
• "The barren land has been conquered, and Da Xia will usher in a glorious era. We have no regrets!"
• "However, the Qiang enemies still harbor ambitions to invade our land."
• "Under this prosperous era, the powerful figures in the rear are indulging in their desires, unable to extricate themselves."
• "Let me become a sword, protecting the eternal peace of Da Xia!"
• "The North King wields his sword, cutting down all falsehoods!"
• Everyone shouted in unison, bidding farewell to the Heavenly King.
• Ning Beichuan boarded the helicopter and flew away from the border.
• Looking at the barren land, the desolate soil, the shattered mountains and rivers, and the blood-red setting sun, he remained resolute!
• This was Ning Beichuan's ten years!
• ...
• After arriving in Liang City.
• Ning Beichuan hailed a taxi and headed towards the old city area.
• This time, he only brought Xiaotian and Grey Feather, without making a big fuss.
• The mysterious and tragic death of his parents many years ago needed to be investigated.
• Three years ago, due to misleading information, his brother Nangong Xiaoyue ventured deep into enemy territory and was ambushed, meeting a tragic end!
• He had to avenge this deep-seated hatred!
• And this erroneous information involved too many influential figures in Shengjing.
• Unless absolutely necessary, he must not startle the snake in the grass, fearing unexpected changes.
• The identity of the Northern Heavenly King is too significant. If it alarms some corrupt officials, it will inevitably cause a strong backlash.
• He wants to gradually expose the worms in the court and the common people, uprooting them completely!
• He cannot let his brothers' blood be shed in vain!
• He cannot let the spirits of the fallen warriors on the battlefield be disgraced!
• And he definitely cannot let the people of Daxia feel disheartened!
• Ning Beichuan wants to be worthy of heaven and earth, and he cannot betray his own conscience.
• The car drove into North Street.
• The surrounding steel cages made Ning Beichuan feel somewhat lost.
• Has everything changed in these ten years?
• Looking at the familiar street scene gradually emerging before him, Ning Beichuan smiled.
• His once cold heart was now warmed, and his thoughts began to drift away.
• When he was nine years old, his parents died suddenly.
• As a young child, he was sent to the North Street Orphanage, where he relied on his seven sisters for survival.
• Although life was difficult, it was the warmest time in Ning Beichuan's life.
• In the following decade,
• He experienced numerous battles, big and small, and gradually reached the peak.
• He became the guardian deity of Daxia, the Northern Heavenly King!
• No one knew that the reason he kept going was because his sisters were waiting for him to come back, waiting for his return...
• He had once vowed to live well and return to his hometown to protect his sisters from wind and rain, ensuring their eternal peace.
• Time flies, and everything changes.
• Ten years have passed, sisters, are you doing well?
• Even as the Heavenly King, Ning Beichuan couldn't help but feel a surge of complex emotions.
• But his thoughts were quickly interrupted.
• Sounds of intense arguments came from ahead.
• Accompanied by cries, wails, and various low, hoarse roars.
• Has something happened?
• Ning Beichuan's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes instantly turned red.
• He hurriedly got out of the car, like a sharp sword, quickly rushing towards the old site of the orphanage, longing to return home!
• The driver was stunned!
• Is this speed still human?
• North Street Orphanage.
• At the entrance.
• A large number of workers, thugs, and hooligans surrounded the area.
• Several excavators were already buzzing, ready to demolish the orphanage in front of them.
• Large sections of walls collapsed, and dust filled the air.
• On one side stood representatives from North Street Orphanage, including a woman and some elderly people and children, their eyes filled with fear.
• The woman in her twenties had short, neat hair.
• She wore black glasses, a black suit, and a black mini skirt.
• Wrapped in black stockings and black high heels, her figure outlined an arrogant curve.
• On the other side stood a scar-faced man, with a crooked mouth.
• Known on the streets as Scarface.
• It is said that he was injured during the battle.
• The woman argued, "The North Street Welfare Institute has a land deed, why should we move?"
• "Because I, your grandfather, have a big fist, that's why!"
• The crooked scar made the woman tremble with anger, and she angrily rebuked, "In broad daylight, is there no justice, no rule of law?"
• "Brothers, tell this woman what justice is, what rule of law is."
• The crooked scar laughed wildly, with a mocking expression on his face.
• "Prosperity is justice, prosperity is the rule of law!"
• A group of thugs and workers shouted in unison, their momentum overwhelming, forcing the North Street Welfare Institute to retreat several steps.
• Boom!
• The momentum of the North Street Welfare Institute instantly collapsed.
• They have a land deed.
• But who is the Ding Sheng Group?
• It is one of the three leading enterprises in Liang City, with immense power.
• Who can stop them from demolishing?
• Some people cried.
• Some murmured.
• Some remained silent.
• For them, Ding Sheng is like the scorching sun hanging in the sky, out of reach, how can they resist?
• "Grandma He, are we going to sleep on the streets?"
• "Little Nuan, are you going to collect garbage?"
• "Sister Chen, it's alright, you did your best."
• The children's eyes filled with sadness.
• They understood that the decline of the North Street Welfare Institute was an inevitable trend, beyond their control.
• However, they were still reluctant to leave the home they had lived in for over a decade.
• "Zi Tong, let it go. Let them have the land deed. There's no need to resort to violence. Grandma has witnessed your efforts, but you shouldn't play with your own safety. This is the reality. We are all ordinary people. How can we defy fate?"
• After saying that, Grandma He turned away.
• Leaving behind a desolate figure.
• She gave up...
• Chen Zi Tong clenched her fists tightly, her hands digging into her flesh without her realizing it.
• The assistant stepped forward, wearing a serious expression, "Zi Tong, I know you are unwilling."
• "But... we can't stop the Ding Sheng Group. Even if you want to sue, they can exhaust us."
• "Do you want our law firm to suffer a catastrophic disaster?"
• The assistant questioned.
• He had never agreed with Chen Zi Tong getting into conflict with the Ding Sheng Group over this matter.
• Chen Zi Tong's career was on the rise.
• Once she offended the Ding Sheng Group, her future would be ruined, leading to her downfall!
• He would never allow that!
• "No!"
• Chen Zi Tong shouted loudly, her eyes turning red.
• She emphasized each word, looking straight into the scarred eyes, "I disagree!"
• This is Da Xia!
• This is Liang City!
• This is a society governed by the rule of law!
• How can such parasites survive until now?
• A touch of sadness flickered in Chen Zitong's eyes.
• She was unwilling to give up the North Street Welfare Institute, where she had lived for so long.
• She was also unwilling to forget the beautiful memories that were created here.
• He had promised when he left.
• When autumn arrives on September 8th, he will definitely return and protect her for the rest of her life.
• One year, two years, three years...
• A whole ten years, he broke his promise.
• Tears streamed down Chen Zitong's face.
• Perhaps he had long died outside the domain, perhaps he had long forgotten that there were still seven sisters waiting for him here.
• But she had to protect this place, even if it meant sacrificing herself!
• Chen Zitong took a step forward.
• With her frail body, she stood in front of the Ding Sheng Group.
• At this moment.
• Everyone in the welfare institute was inspired by Chen Zitong's determination.
• They followed one after another, resolutely joining Chen Zitong's cause.
• With their flesh and blood, they stood in front of the formidable force of the Ding Sheng Group, their voices shaking the heavens:
• "We will never give up!"
