Chapter 696 Dark Shadow Devil

After seeing Lu Fan wearing a golden python robe, these civil servants and generals all had extremely complicated expressions on their faces.

They never thought of the prince Lu Fan who had been known as a waste for more than 20 years.

At this moment, he has actually reached this stage, and he is going to become the new Emperor Qian.

Although they had to witness this scene with their own eyes today, they still felt unspeakable emotions in their hearts.

After all, before today, no one would have thought that the useless prince would become the next emperor.

Previously, their focus was entirely on Prince Ning and Prince Yu, and they directly ignored the prince, Lu Fan.

But the person standing here today is the prince Lu Fan, this 'waste' who has been ignored by them for twenty-three years.

When these civil servants and generals looked at Lu Fan, Lu Fan also glanced at them lightly.

Although Lu Fan's eyes were very calm, when he looked at these civil servants and generals, they all trembled involuntarily.

Lu Fan's plain gaze seemed to see right through them, making them frightened.

They all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Lu Fan at all.

Lu Fan also looked away after taking a look at these guys, his expression still extremely indifferent.

These guys did not participate in the rebellion and forced the palace, so Lu Fan would not take action against them.

Of course, some people in important positions will naturally have to move.

After all, so many people under his command have to enter the court, and someone must move their places for them.

However, he would not blindly let these civil servants and generals move their positions.

After all, many of these civil servants and generals are very capable, and not all of them are trash.

Those who want to move their positions are naturally those who have little ability or have evil intentions.

Next, he will embark on the road to war. He only needs capable and strong people, not wastes that will only hold him back.

So he won't keep any of those useless people.

Thinking like this, Lu Fan walked towards the Qiankun Palace in front of him with a calm expression.

As for He Qing, Shiji, Shen Yanran, An Lan, Jiang Shang and others, they were all waiting outside.

When Lu Fan walked into the Qiankun Hall, he saw his father Lu Zheng and his fifth uncle Lu Shaoqing standing in the hall.

When Lu Fan came to them, the two of them patted his shoulders with complicated expressions and said with a smile:

"We have finally waited for this day!"

Looking at the two people with extremely complicated expressions, Lu Fan nodded firmly.

"Daqian will definitely become the supreme divine dynasty spanning the nine divine continents."

Lu Fan's words were sonorous and powerful, and his tone was extremely firm and confident.

This is one of his biggest goals now, and it is also a task that must be completed.

After hearing what Lu Fan said about this goal, both Lu Zheng and Lu Shaoqing laughed happily.

"Okay, let's wait for that day."

After saying this, Lu Zheng took out four tokens from the storage ring and handed them to Lu Fan.

"Fan'er, these three tokens represent the four forces, which are only loyal to the successive emperors. Now I will hand them over to you."

Looking at the four tokens handed over by his father, Lu Fan was stunned for a moment, and then took the four tokens without hesitation.

When Lu Fan took over the four tokens, Lu Zheng introduced to Lu Fan the four forces represented by the four tokens.

The force represented by the first token is the Xuanwu Guards who defend the imperial capital. Both in terms of combat power and equipment, they are far superior to other legions in Daqian.

There are only 50,000 Xuanwu Guards, but the combined combat effectiveness of these 50,000 is comparable to 200,000.

Any Xuanwu Guard has the strength to fight one against four or even stronger.

It's just that there are only 20,000 Xuanwu Guards on the surface, and there are still 30,000 hidden in a secret realm in the Daqian Forbidden Land.

That secret blessed land is also the core home base of the Daqian Lu family, and all the Lu family members are in that secret blessed land.

The second token represented the Shadow Guards that Lu Fan was familiar with, the intelligence force under Emperor Qian.

Lu Fan originally thought that the Shadow Guards only covered Daqian, but now he realized that the Shadow Guards had spread to the entire Dongsheng Continent.

In almost all important places in Dongsheng Shenzhou, there are traces of Shadow Guards.

Because the Shadow Guards are only loyal to the previous Emperors, and each Emperor will continue to expand and develop the Shadow Guards after taking over.

After the support and expansion of successive Qian Emperors, the Shadow Guards have long been spread throughout the Dongsheng Divine Continent and can explore a lot of information about the Dongsheng Divine Continent.

The Xuanwu Guard is a force on the surface, while the Shadow Guard is a semi-transparent force, which many civil servants and generals basically know.

It's just that these two forces are not the strongest forces under the previous Emperor Qian.

The really strongest ones are two forces that are completely hidden in the dark. Successive Emperor Qianhuang rarely used them. Even if they did, no one would know about them, and all those who knew about them would be wiped out.

Because of this, everyone only knows about the Xuanwu Guard and the Shadow Guard, but not the other two forces.

The other two forces are the Dark Devil and the Shadow.

The Dark Devils are all killer assassins, and the Shadows are the same as the Shadow Guards, they are also intelligence agencies.

It's just that Shadow is much stronger than Shadow Guard.

Because some of the strongest members of the Shadow Guard were eliminated from the Shadows, you can imagine how powerful the Shadows are.

It is no exaggeration to say that Black Demon and Shadow are no weaker than second-rate forces like the Hidden Sword Sect.

It is precisely because of the existence of black demons and shadows that Daqian can still be safe without the Hidden Sword Sect as the sect to worship.

If it were not for the two hidden forces of Dark Demon and Shadow, other forces would have long since targeted Da Gan and become the sects worshiped by Da Gan.

It's just that there are very few people who know about shadows and black demons. It can almost be said that only the successive emperors know about it.

Even people from the Daqian Lu family don't know the existence of shadows and black demons.

These two major forces were created by the first Emperor Qian, hundreds of years ago.

After Lu Zheng said this, Lu Fan was shocked beyond measure.

Only at this moment did he know why Uncle Xianyuan had told him before that he should not underestimate Xianyang's father, Daqian, or the Lu family.

He didn't understand it very well before, but now he understands everything.

Not to mention anything else, just relying on these four forces, Daqian is no weaker than those first-rate forces in Shenzhou.

After suppressing the shock in his heart, Lu Fan couldn't help but look at his father and asked curiously:

"Father, since there are two hidden powerful forces, the Shadow and the Dark Demon, why has Daqian never expanded or entered into foreign campaigns?"

If the father-in-law was afraid of the mysterious men in black robes who were hunting down his own father, then why didn’t the previous Qianhuangs expand externally?

After all, the surrounding dynasties are not very strong. With the existence of shadows and black demons, they can definitely control these dynasties easily.

But in the hundreds of years since its founding, Dagan has never expanded externally.

Not only did it not expand, but in the face of the continuous invasion of the Tianwu Dynasty, it only focused on low-end products without any thoughts of counter-invasion.

Before, he thought that the strength of Daqian was too weak, so the successive Emperors of Qian did not expand externally.

But now that he knows the existence of shadows and black demons, he doesn't understand them very much.

Facing Lu Fan's inquiry, Lu Zheng shook his head...
