Chapter 2262: Resolving the Cold Wave!

Confucian Sect Leader Li Junxian was momentarily dazzled.
At this moment, he felt an extraordinarily complicated mixture of emotions.
He suddenly understood Wang Chong, understood this King of Foreign Lands whom he had once fought to the death with!
“A harmonious world…” Li Junxian’s lips muttered as he looked up at the sky.
In the militarist-Confucian conflict, he and Wang Chong had been at odds with each other, the factions getting along like fire and water. Their strife had even almost thrown the entire realm into disarray.
But what the Confucian Sect had worked toward for several thousand years and multiple generations, which they had sacrificed countless lives for yet failed to achieve, had been brought about under the hands of a militarist leader.
Gaining peace through war!
Gaining war through peace!
How ridiculous was this?!
But none of this was important, because a Harmonious World was really about to descend!
All of the countries would fuse together, all the people would work for a common cause, and all war would cease!
Was this not the world the Confucian Sect had always dreamed about and anticipated?
Li Junxian felt all sorts of emotions.
The young man standing in front of him possessed a mind for strategy, vision, leadership ability, and aspirations that few people could match.
This was perhaps the mightiest existence in the history of the continent!
On the other end, the Tibetan generals, including Namri Songtian, were all overcome with gratitude.
“Thank you, Your Highness!”
“Ü-Tsang is willing to serve Your Highness, is willing to serve the Great Tang!”
All of them instantly prostrated.
For these numerous generals and Tibetan people, Dalon Trinling was a supreme existence. By showing mercy to Dalon Trinling, Wang Chong had essentially made the entire Ü-Tsang Empire owe him and the Great Tang a favor.
Perhaps he really can fulfill that prophecy.
As he looked at the energetic youth before him, Dalon Trinling thought back to that prophecy that the Great Snow Mountain Holy Temple had passed down from ancient times.
Whoosh! In the middle of the conversation, a large snow eagle penetrated through the snowstorm.
Taken aback, Young Master Qingyang instinctively reached out his hand to receive the eagle. Upon opening the letter, he trembled in shock.
“Your Highness, Generals Gao and An have sent word from Arabia.”
With the letter, Young Master Qingyang swiftly stepped forward.
“They’ve successfully defeated Fulin, which was invading from the west. By using the effects of the cold wave, the two generals were able to successfully subdue the entire Fulin army.
“The King of Fulin has formally surrendered and joined the Great Tang.”
The Tibetan generals and Dalon Trinling trembled in shock as they stared at Wang Chong.
Young Master Qingyang also looked up at Wang Chong.
“Haha, okay!”
Wang Chong’s eyes brightened in joy.
He had previously written a letter asking Gao Xianzhi and An Sishun how things were going in Arabia. If needed, he could reinforce them at any time.
But to his surprise, they had already overcome their foe and pacified all the rebellions within the Arabian Empire.
After all these wars, there was truly no one left on the continent that could contend against the Great Tang.
“Haha, Imperial Minister!”
With joy in his heart, Wang Chong turned to Dalon Trinling.
“There is no need to thank me just yet. The death penalty can be put off, but suffering in life is difficult to avoid. The damage Ü-Tsang inflicted on the Great Tang in this invasion cannot be wiped away with a few words.
“You should know my habits, yes? The Great Tang is not in the business of running losses. I know that Ü-Tsang is not as prosperous as Arabia, but that is fine. I have already thought of a way for you to repay me. All of the debts will be paid in the future.”
Dalon Trinling knew what Wang Chong was referring to.
With each victory, the Great Tang was certain to demand compensation from the countries it had fought with.
But this time, Dalon Trinling merely smiled and hardly seemed concerned, not even asking how much Wang Chong was asking for in compensation.
“Everything is as Your Highness says.”
Dalon Trinling bowed.
Matters in the northwest came to a close, and with the news of Gao Xianzhi and An Sishun’s victory in Arabia arriving in the capital, the people of the Central Plains celebrated once more.
