After the war, the immortals returned to the court with generous spoils.

The spoils are mainly magical treasures and treasures of immortals outside the domain, and gold belts for killing and setting fire. For monks, every war is a process of taking the other party's wealth for themselves, which is actually not much different from robbery.

The wealth in the mortal world is distributed among the government and the people, and it takes a lot of effort to plunder it. For the fairyland, wealth lies in the monks, and it is easy to harvest spoils.

"The country cannot be without a king for a day, and the same is true for the Immortal Realm. Since the Immortal Emperor has been killed by you, it will be natural for you to take over as the Immortal Emperor. With your current cultivation and power, no one dares to disobey."

On the way back, Feihong Sheng Buddha talked about this matter with Li Ye. In her opinion, this matter cannot be delayed.

From the heart, this is also the result of the success of Feihong Holy Buddha. Now that the Buddha Domain has Li Ye’s troops, Li Ye succeeds to the Immortal Emperor, it will be more legitimate to lead them.

For Li Ye and the monks in the Buddhist realm, this is also a kind of righteous name. They were similar to the independent rural princes before, but now they have achieved great success. Once Li Ye becomes the Immortal Emperor, they will be the orthodox army of the court.

Of course, Li Ye has no reason to object to this.

Although in the mortal world, due to Li Yan's affection, he has never ascended the throne, but in the Immortal Realm, nothing could prevent him from justifying his reputation and mastering the power of the Immortal Realm.

However, before this, Li Ye had some things to be corrected so as not to have any hidden dangers in the future.

When they returned to the Immortal Court, the monks "set up camps" on the hills - mainly to arrange houses and halls for monks in the Buddhist realm and demon monks. After all, they had no place to live in the Immortal Court before. During this period, the demon monks were most interested, climbing pillars and walls everywhere, and their unruly temperament was unrestrained.

After arranging the stationing issue, Li Ye called the four monks, Feihong, Niu Mowang, Yang Jian, and Tongtian Sect Leader, to the hall where he was staying, and began to discuss the construction of a new order in the fairyland.

Li Ye went straight to the topic: "The Immortal Emperor is dead, and the foreign enemies have been eliminated. From now on, I have the final say in this fairyland. In the war to welcome the new, all the immortals led by you have indelible achievements. You should live in harmony in the future, obey my orders, and share the fairyland with me. After I said that, who agrees and who opposes?"

Master Feihong nodded slightly to express his agreement, and then he looked at his eyes, nose, and heart, making a look of dust.

The Bull Demon King disturbed his head, "The demon clan started a war with the immortal court in order not to be bullied by the immortal court, reappeared his former glory, and entered the immortal court again. Now that this purpose has been achieved, there is naturally nothing to say."

The demon clan's entry into the Immortal Court means returning to the Immortal Court rather than becoming an Immortal Emperor. Such a goal cannot be achieved. The Bull Demon King said this to recognize Li Ye's succession to the Immortal Emperor. For the entire demon clan, Li Ye's new Immortal Emperor is also the best situation.

Yang Jian said concisely: "I agree."

After saying that, he glanced at the Master Tongtian and said, "From now on, you and I don't have to fight again. I just don't know if I am willing to do so in the opinion of the Master, I have not obtained the position of Immortal Emperor?"

The leader of Tongtian snorted coldly, saying that you don’t want to insult me, so I won’t be fooled by you. “The new situation is opened up by us together. As long as we are all recognized, I naturally have no other extravagant desires. By the way, I can’t put me under house arrest in the East Floor Museum.”

This request made everyone laugh.

Li Ye nodded and said, "Since that's the case, there is no need to divide the boundaries and let your people live separately, so as not to become unfamiliar with each other. The Buddha Domain and the Immortal Domain will no longer set up mountains and be unified under the Immortal Emperor's management. In the future, the Immortal Domain will be a situation of integration among all parties, and I hope you will set a good example."

Everyone looked at each other and stood up to salute, "I will obey Your Majesty's orders."

Li Ye smiled slightly and accepted the gift from everyone calmly.

Don't let it go.

Three days later, on a good day, in the Zixiao Palace, the immortals held a ceremony for Li Ye's ascension ceremony.

The monks from all sides were in two squads, with fairies and demons mixed together, and they all looked solemn. They looked eagerly at Li Ye in the dragon robe, walked past them, and walked step by step to the imperial desk, and sat down steadily behind the bead curtain.

"See Your Majesty!"

As Li Ye sat down, the monks bowed down and bowed, shouting long live the mountain.

Li Ye slowly raised his hand, with a majestic gaze and awesomeness, and said lightly: "All the Lords have lived."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Since then, the Immortal Realm has ushered in a new master.

......

Under the sunset, by the desert, Yao Geluo looked back at Yangguan with a sad look.

Xiongguan

Although it is broken, its roots and bones are still there. Whether it is the towering city walls or the eaves of the city towers with iron pen and gold hooks, large shadows still appear under the setting sun. It is silent, but it makes people feel heavy.

"Khan, let's go quickly. The monks of the Tang Dynasty are not far from us, so don't ask them to catch up!" a ten thousand men persuaded anxiously.

Yao Ge Luoluo's eyes showed extreme pain and he was reluctant to leave for a long time.

He knew that he would never step into Yangguan after his entire life after leaving Yangguan. Not only that, the invincible Tang army that came out of here would even invade his territory, burn, kill, loot, and bring his tribe members into hell.

When his descendants saw this heroic pass again, there would be no more troops beside them, but only caravan goods. They would be in awe of the Tang Dynasty soldiers guarding the border, bent over and smiled, pay taxes to enter the city, and accept the other party's fingers and inspections.

"Those who shouldn't have entered this Guancheng..."

Yao Ge Luoluo regretted it to the extreme, and blood and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes. "I thought that when I entered this pass, the kingdom of heaven was to the east. Unexpectedly, hundreds of thousands of warriors entered Yangguan, but they could only return to their hometown. There... is our hell..."

Wiping away the blood and tears from his face, Yao Geluo turned around and threw himself into the boundless desert.

He had made up his mind to leave a bloody and tears for his tribe members: The Uighurs have not been enemies of the Tang Dynasty for generations.

Unfortunately, this lesson came too late and could no longer stop the Tang army from expeditioning the west.

......

At the end of the year, heavy snow in Chang'an.

In the palace of Prince An, Li Ye was warming wine and enjoying the snow in the pavilion. Aside from the inseparable guard of the Great Young Master Siming, he was the heroic and powerful King Qi. His folding fan was shaking very vigorously.

"Guiyi Army and the Yulin Army are ready for the western expedition. They just wait until the weather gets warmer after spring, and then go west to Yangguan and take the Uighurs' nest. If nothing unexpected happens, the Western Regions will be taken next year. You should be proud at this moment. Why do I think you are still so calm?"

King Qi took the folding fan and sipped a sip of the wine, and was content with ease.

Everything in the north was settled. Except for the 200,000 troops, the following errands were basically civil servants. King Qi had no reason to stay. He just went to the army to go on duty not long ago.

Li Ye, who was sitting slanted, was playing with his wine glass, "The important thing about the army's expedition in the west is not to defeat the Uighurs, but to rebuild the four towns of Anxi. This is a not so easy job, it takes a long time, and it also requires huge amounts of money and materials to protect it.

"Hexi, which is suffering from war, has no money and food in the northwest. The food, fodder and supplies allocated by the court will not be transported in place at the beginning of next spring. Everything in the Western Regions is complicated and the forces in the west are invading. How could I be so proud of myself so early?"

At this time, there was a powerful Karakhan dynasty in the western border of the Western Regions. Under the leadership of the Muslims, it was developing eastward and conquering wars. It might not be difficult for the Tang army to defeat the Uighurs, but to rebuild the four towns of Anxi and restore the former jurisdiction, we had to face them head-on.

The Karakhan Dynasty, especially the Muslims behind it, is the issue that Li Ye must face.

After the Shimen withdrew from India, Muslims had no strong opponents and were now developing eastward in a fierce manner. Before they met the Tang Dynasty, there was no existence that could stop them.

Li Ye has been wondering recently whether the remaining secrets are in the Muslim world?

Even if it is not all there, at least there are.

Li Ye cannot ignore his opponent with Tianji.

When talking about the war, King Qi naturally had insights. She put down her wine glass, opened the folding fan and shook it again, and said gracefully: "Control the Western Regions has always been a difficult problem. After all, it is too far from the center, so it is difficult for the army to fight on a large scale, and the food, fodder and supplies cannot be afforded. The army of this dynasty's western expedition has always been streamlined and even more streamlined, and hundreds of thousands of troops have not yet appeared to travel west.

"Although there are many merchants in the Western Regions, there is little food, so it is impossible to obtain grain on the spot. Even if the border troops are allowed to settle, it will be a drop in the bucket. Only a small part of the food needs can be solved, and the main part must be subsidized by the dynasty. Moreover, once a war occurs, the court will be under greater pressure. If this problem is not solved, it will be difficult for the Western Regions to maintain long-term stability."

Li Ye knew that the other party was right.

This difficulty is something he must overcome.

Otherwise, even if the four Anxi towns can deal with miscellaneous fish, once they encounter the Karakhan Dynasty and the powerful Muslims behind it, the war will be huge and the war will last, and the court will be too burdened.

However, Li Ye has been in charge of military affairs for so long, and he is not helpless about it. He has his own plans.

After drinking a glass of wine, Li Ye said leisurely: "To deal with strong enemies in the Western Regions, ensure that the Western Regions are not lost, and even to battle farther away places, the dynasty actually only needs to do one thing."

King Qi's eyes lit up and he quickly asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

Li Ye said: "Enhance the power of monks."

King Qi fell into deep thought.

After a while, she asked solemnly: "Do you want to use monks instead of ordinary soldiers and form an army of monks in the Western Regions?"

Li Ye nodded: "No, ordinary soldiers rely on a steady stream of food, fodder and supplies, but for monks, as long as they fill their own storage bags, they can meet the various supplies needed for the fierce battle in a month. Moreover, monks transport supplies with large capacity and fast speed. Combining the two, the burden of war has not only dropped ten times?"

King Qi keenly grasped the point, and there was a look of solemnity between his eyebrows: "Not to mention cultivating 100,000 monks, it takes a lot of time. Just 100,000 sets of monk equipment - magic weapons, elixirs, storage bags, that are all unmeasurable wealth!"

At the end, King Qi was already confused and surprised.

Li Ye was very calm and calm and said: "One hundred thousand cultivators are not enough, at least two hundred thousand can be done. Moreover, the weakest cultivation is to practice qi."

King Qi's eyes widened, "The Tang Dynasty has so much wealth?"

Li Ye smiled, "Why don't there? Have you forgotten how many immortals are there in the Immortal Realm? That is the Immortal Realm. Where do their magic weapons and elixirs come from? After all, the materials are also obtained from the mortal world. The world is the cornerstone of the Immortal Realm and the foundation of everything."

"But that's been accumulated over thousands of years!"

"So I didn't want to form an army of immortals in the mortal world, and I could only be an army dominated by Qi training monks."

"This...is still too incredible. Do you really have so many cultivation resources in the world?"

Li Ye sighed and said seriously: "Let me ask you, King Qi, how much wealth does it have in your mansion? The money you have for a piece of clothing can't be eaten by ordinary people in ten years! The resources in the world are beyond your imagination. In the mortal world, more than 90% of the wealth in the world have mastered?

"The rich are so rich, ordinary people can't imagine. As King Qi, don't you know? In any era, the wealth that the most outstanding rich people control is definitely more than 99% of the total wealth in the world!

"For the cultivation world, these 99% of the resources were previously in the hands of immortals and were used by them. Now that the immortals are isolated, these resources are all in our hands. It only takes three years and five years to equip them with 200,000 cultivators!"

King Qi was shocked.

But I soon came to my senses.

Because she found that Li Ye said nothing wrong.

She also lived a hard life. When she was a child, she was in danger and even had a problem with eating. She also knew that the people at the bottom had exhausted their energy for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but could not meet their needs.

Originally she thought that the world was difficult and the world was not rich enough. Now she still can’t know that the world was difficult but the world was definitely rich.

During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, there may no longer be frozen bones on the roadside, but the situation of the smell of wine and meat in rich families will never change at all - the smell of wine and meat in their families will only be more smelly, because there is more wealth in the world.

Without the immortal realm, lying on the body of the mortal world to suck blood, the resources in the mortal world are definitely enough to form a large army of monks.
