Chapter 69: The Story’s Heroine

Looking at Daikis before him, Wang Kun spoke to her directly. "Return to the Light Sect at once and carry out its mission together with Yin Susu. She will also be responsible for instructing you in cultivation."

"Yes, Master!" Daikis replied with utmost reverence.

A moment later, Wang Kun vanished from Daikis’ sight.

Upon leaving, Wang Kun returned to his manor in this world and resumed his life of cultivation.

The main storyline and key characters of this world had already been fundamentally altered by his intervention. All that remained was the task of conquering the realm.

These minor matters could be left entirely in the hands of Yin Susu and the other newly joined beauty assassins. Besides, with Zhao Min, the Mongol princess, acting as an internal ally, the unification of the land was merely a matter of time.

A month later, the Light Sect, led by Yin Susu, joined forces with numerous martial heroes and launched a full-scale assault on various cities under Mongol control.

In just a few days, over a dozen cities south of the Western Regions fell to the Light Sect.

As the Light Sect swept through the land with unstoppable momentum, Zhao Min, after meticulous preparation in the Mongol capital, stormed the imperial palace just days later. Except for her own father, she wiped out every member of the Mongol royal family.

After eradicating the entire royal lineage, Zhao Min firmly took control of the capital.

That day, in a mansion within the capital, Zhao Min’s father bellowed furiously.

“You worthless dogs, let me out at once! I demand to see Minmin!”

The guards at the gate paid his cries no heed, feigning ignorance.

At that moment, one of the guards entered.

“Your Grace, the princess sent me to relay a message: The royal family has been entirely eliminated. She said you should enjoy your twilight years peacefully in this manor.”

“What—what did you say? Minmin actually dared to rebel?!”

...

With Zhao Min’s occupation of the capital, the Light Army under Yin Susu’s command swiftly conquered the greater part of the Central Plains.

Once the Yellow River was crossed, they would face the Mongol capital directly.

Yet the Mongol troops north of the river were oblivious: Zhao Min, who now held the capital, was in fact allied with the Ming forces.

Thus, when the Ming troops successfully crossed the river, Zhao Min, having reorganized the city’s garrison, led her forces in concert with the Ming army to attack from both north and south. In less than ten days, they annihilated all resistance.

Hence, the entire Mongol power—save for the northern steppes—was seized by the Ming.

However, Zhao Min did not spare the remnants on the steppes. Even with the royal family exterminated, as long as Mongol tribes endured, a new king might rise in decades.

To fulfill Wang Kun’s command to conquer the world, Zhao Min herself spearheaded the northern campaign.

Though she had only recently begun cultivating genetic source energy, her talent was extraordinary. In less than a month, her strength neared that of a war god.

Now a war god-level warrior, she was unmatched by any martial expert in this world.

Else, she could never have so decisively eradicated the Mongol royal family.

Even her confidants followed her in the conquest of the capital under the twin pressures of her martial prowess and the lure of rewards.

Time passed swiftly. By the third year of Ming’s complete unification of the Eastern continent, Wang Kun, who had remained secluded in cultivation, smoothly broke through to the sixth stage of the planetary level.

His beauty assassins successively reached various stages of strength.

Even the latest additions to their ranks had now attained the first and second stages of the planetary level.

Among these, Zhou Zhiruo and Zhao Min were both at the second stage. Perhaps because they were originally the main female protagonists of this world’s storyline, their talent surpassed the others.

In just three years, the pair had already broken through to the second stage.

Moreover, both had not only advanced to the second planetary stage, but had also comprehended their own domains.

Such talent prompted Wang Kun to marvel at their extraordinary gifts, befitting true heroines of the tale.

Of course, they were not alone in comprehending domains.

Assassin Xia Tian, Zhang Yijun, Haiyao, and Kaixin—who were the earliest to join the beauty assassin corps—had also successively awakened their domains.

As the years passed, Wang Kun’s time in this world drew to a close.

Though he continued to cultivate, his strength remained at the sixth planetary stage, with some distance yet to the seventh.

But several of his beauty assassins had already broken through to the seventh stage.

Even the newly recruited beauty assassins of this world had all advanced beyond the third planetary stage.

As for the two heroines of fate, they had reached the fifth planetary stage.

“It seems the talent of heroines of fortune is indeed exceptional. I wonder, when the Universe Genius Tournament of the Swallowing the Starry Sky world begins, what rankings these beauty assassins will achieve.”

According to the storyline of Swallowing the Starry Sky, there were still several years before the Peak Genius Tournament.

If Wang Kun’s transmigration cooldown remained unchanged, he could enter dozens more alternate worlds.

Even if he spent only a few years in each, that would amount to centuries of cultivation.

By then, his beauty assassins might each have grasped profound laws and perhaps even compete in the Peak Genius Tournament.

Shaking his head, Wang Kun dismissed these distant thoughts. After a brief period of rest, he and his beauty assassins departed this world together.
