Holy Terra, at the entrance of the Imperial Palace.
At this moment, a massive parade stand had been erected at the entrance of the Imperial Palace. Li Feng, the Living Saint, and a red-haired woman he hadn't met before, stepped onto the podium together.
The three of them looked at each other... Finally, Li Feng walked to the microphone. At that moment, Reinhard, holding a manuscript, hurried past a Custodian Guard wearing a helmet.
The Custodian Guard also turned his head and glanced. "Reinhard... you've grown up too..."
Reinhard placed the speech manuscripts written by Li Feng and Sanguinius on the podium. Countless cherub skulls were recording this moment, and these recordings would be circulated throughout the Imperium.
At this point, Li Feng adjusted the microphone, then coughed slightly and said:
"The great wind rises, the clouds fly high! Where can we find brave warriors to guard the four directions! The enemies of the Imperium must be annihilated! There's no other way! Just imagine, you're with your wife, eating hotpot and singing songs, and suddenly the enemy tears the galaxy apart! We must be vigilant! The enemies of the Imperium are everywhere..."
Listening to Li Feng's speech, the High Lords below the main stage had varied expressions. Li Feng's opening style clearly caught many off guard, especially the relaxed tone of "eating hotpot and singing songs," which caused a stir among the audience below the main stage.
Li Feng raised his head, looking at the countless Imperial citizens gathered below, and his voice grew even louder: "Yes! The enemies of the Imperium are everywhere! They seek to tear apart our homes, dismantle our faith, and destroy our loyalty to the Emperor! And our mission is to make these enemies understand! They can never defeat a truly united Imperium!"
"And this unity comes not only from the gunfire on the battlefield but also from the trust of every ordinary person! Whether you are a tenant farmer on a farm, an artisan in a factory, or a Soldier on a starship... every contribution you make is a cornerstone of the Imperium! Unity! Is strength!"
The crowd below began to erupt in enthusiastic cheers. Although Li Feng's language had an unconventional casualness, the message it conveyed struck a chord. He did not use the cumbersome and lengthy traditional Imperial rhetoric but rather used straightforward language that everyone could understand.
But at this moment, Li Feng looked back at the backstage and saw the Khan giving a thumbs-up, indicating they were ready. Li Feng then said:
"Today! Not only have I and the warriors who fought in Gravallix returned here! Today! We also have our common old friends! Returned here!"
Li Feng's words made the High Lords frown, and many warriors and common people also quieted down, looking towards the main stage. The cameras also focused on the main stage... Li Feng extended his hand, pointing towards the backstage: "Let me welcome the Emperor's sons back to the Imperium!"
On the parade stand of the Terra Imperial Palace, the atmosphere became exceptionally tense and expectant after Li Feng's words. The crowd below and the High Lords were in an uproar, and everyone's eyes simultaneously turned towards the backstage.
When the tall man, wearing white power armour with distinct Mongolian features, appeared on stage, the entire plaza fell into a brief silence.
His power armour was intricately carved with grassland patterns, a nimble eagle perched on his shoulder pad, and his helmet was designed in the style of a Mongolian cap, distinctly different from other Space Marine' helmets. (Image in section comments)
