My Cultivation Prowess Peaks after I Buried the Great Emperor's Corpse

90 Kill all the Competitors and You’ll be the Emperor

“Isn’t it unnecessary for the Imperial Advisor to do this?”

“No. For now, Governor Lin might not need me. Instead, if I stay by your side, I might be of some use.”

Yin Siming shook his head.

To this, Wei Chengyin was clearly confused, but he did not ask.

!!

“Then, what do you think I should do next?” He sincerely asked for advice.

“Well, if I’m not wrong, Governor Lin sent you to the capital of the Li Dynasty to help you gain a firm foothold, and then make you the Emperor of the Li Dynasty.”

“Indeed. I’m just the governor’s spokesperson. Even if I really become the Emperor of the Li Dynasty in the future, I will still respect the governor.”

Wei Chengyin nodded slightly.

He was very clear about his position.

Rather than live a mediocre life in the City of Sin, he would naturally choose to have a short period of glory.

As long as Lin Wudao was around, he would be able to enjoy his glory.

“It’s not bad that you have such awareness. If you only want to control the Li Dynasty, then you don’t have to do anything else. When Governor Lin comes, you can naturally become the Emperor of the Li Dynasty. However, if you want your life and future to be even more glorious, you have to make some achievements before Governor Lin comes to the imperial capital. At the very least, you have to let him know that although your cultivation is weak, you are not mediocre and that your abilities are not limited to just the Li Dynasty,” Yin Siming said in a meaningful tone.

Upon hearing this, Wei Chengyin seemed to understand, but not quite.

“Imperial Advisor, please teach me.”

Thump!

He knelt respectfully.

“Your Highness, please get up. What I mean is that in the future, the power and territory under Governor Lin will definitely not be limited to just the Li Dynasty. As his power continues to expand, he will have more things to do. When the time comes, he’ll need to find someone capable to lead and manage his territories. If we leave a good impression on Governor Lin at this time, Your Highness, as his first spokesperson, you might be able to rise. Your potential identity, status, power, resources, and so on will be unimaginable. Therefore, this is your best chance,” Yin Siming analyzed calmly.

Hearing this, Wei Chengyin finally understood.

“Imperial Advisor, what should I do to win the governor’s approval?”

“It’s simple. Prove it with your ability. Next, you have to use your own abilities and methods to ascend to the position of the ruler of the Li Dynasty before Governor Lin arrives at the imperial capital. This way, he’ll definitely have a whole new level of respect for you.”

“As for the details, this is what Your Highness can do. The first step is to become the Crown Prince of the Li Dynasty. Although you have many brothers, only one can become the Emperor of the Li Dynasty. My suggestion is to get rid of all those who threaten you. If you’re the only successor left in the entire royal family, Wei Changtian will have no choice even if he’s dissatisfied with you.”

“After we complete this step, our second step will be to plot for the throne. Although Wei Changtian is in his prime, we can create an accident and send him to hell ahead of time. When that happens, you can become the Emperor of the Li Dynasty,” Yin Siming said lightly.

Ha!

As his voice rang out, Wei Chengyin couldn’t help but take a sharp intake of air.

Yin Siming’s method was simple and brutal.

And that was to kill everyone. As long as there were no more competitors, the throne would be his.

“Those who want to achieve great things must be ruthless enough. If you don’t have extraordinary courage, you won’t be able to suppress it even if you have a huge territory and dynasty in the future.”

“I understand.”

Wei Chengyin clenched his fists. He couldn’t resist Yin Siming’s words.

“Then… How do I get rid of all the competitors?”

“Well, I’ve already thought about it. As long as Your Highness does as I say, we’ll be able to eliminate all the competitors within half a month. As for Wei Changtian, I’ll take action. Your Highness, when you become the Crown Prince, Wei Changtian will also be finished.”

Yin Siming’s expression remained calm and indifferent.

“Very well. I’ll leave everything to the Imperial Advisor. After everything is done, Chengyin is willing to respect the Imperial Advisor as my Godfather.”

Wei Chengyin bowed again.

To this, Yin Siming smiled.

“There’s no need for the position of Godfather. At that time, Your Highness only needs to acknowledge me as the Emperor’s teacher.”

The Emperor’s teacher?

Although Wei Chengyin did not understand, he still nodded his head heavily.

He then started to ask Yin Siming about various things, and Yin Siming seemed to treat him as his own disciple. No matter what Wei Chengyin asked, he would explain in detail.

Following this, Wei Chengyin followed Yin Siming’s instructions strictly and did everything step by step.

In just ten days, Wei Chengyin had eliminated more than half of his competitors and began to madly target the position of the Emperor of the Li Dynasty.

Lin Wudao, who was far away in the City of Sin, had no idea of all this.

These days, he had been disguising himself as Fan Tianjue and stayed in the courtyard of Netherworld Mountain to cultivate, quietly waiting for Sunset Battlefield to open.

At the same time, he was also waiting for the arrival of Saint Qing Ming.

…

Whoosh!

Two days later, an ancient spiritual boat traveled through the void and landed on Netherworld Mountain.

A green-robed man with an elegant temperament walked down from it.

Saint Qing Ming?

With a glance, all the information about the man was immediately presented before Lin Wudao’s eyes.

“Didn’t you say that you were going to invite Tu Qianqiu of the Seven Kills Alliance and Chu Kuangren of the Villain Valley? Where are they?”

“Just wait. They should be here soon.”

Lin Wudao sipped his tea.

As expected, just as Saint Qing Ming sat down, he saw Tu Qianqiu and Chu Kuangren, each steering a spiritual boat over.

...

However, the expressions of the two did not look too good.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Wudao asked despite knowing the answer.

“Lin Wudao stood me up! Originally, we had already agreed to wait for Sunset Battlefield to open and head there together. However, when we went to the Gongsun family, we found that he had already left. Brother Tianjue, do you think Lin Wudao noticed something? Or did he go to Sunset Battlefield alone?”

Tu Qianqiu’s face was gloomy.

Upon hearing this, Lin Wudao laughed in his heart, but he still put on a bitter face.

“It seems that guy is very cautious. In this case, we can only wait for another opportunity to kill him.”

His face was full of resentment.

Saint Qing Ming’s eyebrows furrowed.

“What are you guys talking about?”

“Oh, just a common enemy of our three powers. We wanted to take advantage of this Sunset Battlefield trip to kill him in one fell swoop. Who knew that guy wouldn’t take the bait? If we miss this opportunity, it will be even more difficult to kill him…” Lin Wudao pretended to sigh.

Hearing this, Saint Qing Ming nodded thoughtfully.

...

“Since no one else is coming, let’s set off.”

“Alright.”

Lin Wudao naturally did not have any objections.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

…

With that, the few of them steered the spiritual boats and headed toward Shanhai County.
