Grand Xia Ancient Nation

Grand Xia Ancient Nation (大夏古国 Da Xia Gu Guo), was one of the strongest empires in history in the Immortal Realm.
It is currently destroyed. Xia Guhong was the protector of the empire as he had a contract with the Dragon Bird Divine Beast.
== Location ==
The Grand Xia Ancient Nation was located in the eastern part of the Central Plains. Their territory was as large as over ten prefectures in the Eastern Wasteland. The border was an unending mountain range, and there were multiple layers of light around it. It clearly indicated a formation. One of the gatekeepers Qi Hao is Sea Expansion level.
== Summary ==
The Ancient Grand Xia Empire is one of the Four Grand Ancient Nations within the borders of the Central Region. These were the four great ancient empire: Ancient Grand Xia, Grand Han, Grand Zhou and Grand Chu. These four ancient empires had existed for a very long time, and could be traced back to the Immortal Paleogene.
The most important thing was that the four great ancient countries were vast, their populations were numerous, and their resources were plentiful. None of the sects could match up to them.
Thus, in the Central Region where the sect was dominating, the four ancient countries were like four colossal beings dominating the four directions. They were different from the sects, they still retained the imperial system.
Anyone who entered the borders of an ancient empire, regardless of what kind of cultivator they were, would have to abide by the local laws. Otherwise, it would be seen as a provocation to the ancient empire.
Every ancient empire had a terrifying background. Even a huge power like the Xuantian Dao Sect wouldn't be willing to mess with them.
The Ancient Grand Xia was located in the eastern part of the Central Region, and its land area was around the size of a dozen of Eastern Desolation states, it was truly vast and boundless.

Long Chen first visits the Grand Xia and Wine God Palace.
=== Volume 8 ===
In the past few months, experts from the Grand Han had been coming to the Grand Xia quite a bit. They were all powerful cultivators and large bullies. They would often cause trouble on purpose, while the Grand Xia's imperial family adopted a restrained attitude. 
The Grand Xia had issued orders saying that people were to do their best not to cause conflicts with them. The commoners didn't know what the higher-ups were thinking, but they were extremely dissatisfied with these orders. These people that intentionally ran over to the Grand Xia to cause trouble were just that hateful.
==== Grand Han provoking war ====
The Grand Han people always kept saying that the Grand Xia was provoking the Grand Han, that they wanted war, all while clearly aware that the Grand Xia didn't want a war.
The Grand Xia knew how frightening war was. Many people would die. War was not a crafty trick, it was barbaric plunder. The goal was to get the most benefits through fighting. But whether you won or lost, the ones who suffered the most were always the innocent commoners.
Just how many true experts could the Grand Xia and Grand Han really utilize in a war? Their main force would still depend on their army.
And where did that army come from if not the commoners? The pain of the battlefield would fall on them.
The Grand Xia was profoundly aware of how much pain war brought. Only idiots like the Grand Han would repeatedly say that they wanted a war whenever they didn't get what they wanted. 
Because the Grand Xia had simply endured, the Grand Han had continuously increased their provocations, thinking that the Grand Xia was afraid of them. That was what infuriated Xia Yunchong the most.
Long Chen had learned just how tyrannical these people had been in the Grand Xia. Although they hadn't killed people, trampling over someone's dignity was worse than killing them.
They were deliberately provoking Grand Xia. The Grand Xia's emperor had seen that this was a sinister plot, so he intentionally ordered his people to endure until he figured out just who was really in the shadows scheming against the Grand Xia.
However, enduring like this only made them more arrogant. The Grand Xia's commoners were forced to avoid these people wherever they went, and now, if they didn't have something major to do, they wouldn't even go out.
