Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.
During this decade, Da Shang waged wars on all fronts, destroying the Southern Barbarians, Beirong, and waging a great war against the Eastern Barbarians, achieving victory after victory.
The lords of the land were terrified! Yet they were repeatedly forced and extorted, finding the pain unbearable.
Although Xi Qi had become a feudatory state of Shang, Ji Chang, the Western Lord, was still worried, fearing that after Shang annihilated the Eastern Barbarians, they would turn and destroy Xi Qi as well.
During this decade, he actively contacted all the small lords, his power and influence rising, waiting for an opportunity.
Now, Emperor Xin had sent Wen Zhong to attack the Eastern Barbarians, removing the main force of Shang from the city, leaving their defenses empty, making it an excellent opportunity.
However, Ji Chang's time was running out, bedridden with illness.
The future of all Xi Qi was once again in turbulence and uncertainty.
