The sky gradually darkened. After confirming that the Blood Moon Guards could no longer cause any trouble, Xiao Chen and Chu Wuming returned to the General's Residence.
Although the Blood Moon Guards were still trying their best to resist, the result was obvious. Under the siege of four almighty Dao Emperors, close to 100 Dao Kings, Dao Masters, and 200,000 troops of the four legions, it was impossible for the Blood Moon Guards to have any plans no matter how strong they were.
Being able to persist until now was enough to prove the strength of the Blood Moon Guards. It was a pity that such a powerful army was so pale and powerless in the face of power.
After returning to the General's Residence, Chu Wuming was obviously in a complicated and heavy mood. He did not say a word. Chu Wuming did not regret killing the Blood Moon Guards because he did not have a second choice. However, personally destroying such a powerful army of the Moonless Empire was indeed a heavy blow to Chu Wuming.
Seeing that Chu Wuming was not in a good mood, Xiao Chen took the initiative to say, "Your Highness, now that the matter is basically settled, I will return first."
"Brother Xiao, what do you mean? Don't you want to follow me to meet the Blood Moon Guard Commander? "Chu Wuming asked doubtfully when he heard Xiao Chen's words.
Previously, Xiao Chen had told Tian Guochuan and the other three that if possible, it was best to capture the Blood Moon Guard Commander alive. Now that Xiao Chen wanted to leave, Chu Wuming naturally found it strange.
In fact, Xiao Chen was not interested in the Blood Moon Guard Commander. Now that the situation was settled, there was no need for Xiao Chen to continue staying here. Perhaps it would be better for Chu Wuming to meet the Blood Moon Guard Commander alone.
"I won't see him. Your Highness should meet him alone." Xiao Chen smiled and turned to leave.
After a night of bloody battle, the first ray of sunlight shone on the ground. Under the sunlight, the battle in Zhenshan City finally came to an end.
The entire Zhenshan City was filled with corpses. Most of them were soldiers of the four major legions.
In the battle last night, the Blood Moon Guards fought with all their might and killed 150,000 soldiers. At the same time, eight soldiers from the four legions died in battle.
It was indeed a glorious achievement to be able to achieve this with only 1,000 people. However, it was useless. In the end, the Blood Moon Guards did not escape the fate of being destroyed.
According to Xiao Chen's orders, the Blood Moon Guard Captain was captured alive and his cultivation was crippled. Zhao Feng personally brought him to Chu Wuming.
In the main hall of the General's residence, the Commander of the Blood Moon Guards saw Chu Wuming, who had been waiting for the entire night. He originally thought that the battle would end quickly, but who knew that it would last for the entire night. This night, Chu Wuming did not sleep and had been waiting here.
At this moment, they finally saw the Blood Moon Guard Commander. His body was covered in blood, and his body was riddled with wounds. His cultivation was even destroyed, and he was completely a cripple.
Seeing Chu Wuming, the Blood Moon Guard Commander paused for a moment, but he soon burst into laughter. "Haha, so that's how it is. So that's how it is."
The moment he saw Chu Wuming, the Blood Moon Guard Commander instantly understood everything. From the Weiyuan Army being gradually killed, to the four major legions besieging the Blood Moon Guards, and now to the destruction of the Blood Moon Guards. Everything was Chu Wuming's masterpiece.
Previously, he thought that the four major legions had rebelled, but now it seemed that it was not the case. They had joined Chu Wuming.
Chu Wuming laughed out loud, but his laughter was filled with bitterness. He waved his hand and signaled Zhao Feng to leave. Soon, only Chu Wuming and the Blood Moon Guard commander were left in the main hall.
One of them sat on the main seat, while the other knelt in the middle of the main hall. They looked at each other. After a long time, Chu Wuming broke the silence first.
"The Blood Moon Guards are indeed the strongest army in the Empire. I admire you."
These were Chu Wuming's heartfelt words, but the Blood Moon Guard Commander smiled bitterly. "So what if the Blood Moon Guards are strong? They still fell on Your Highness's path to becoming the Emperor."
It was already clear what Chu Wuming wanted to do. Without waiting for Chu Wuming's reply, the Blood Moon Guards' commander sighed softly and said, "Don't worry.
"Who would have thought that the Third Prince, who had already left the Imperial Capital and seemed to have no fate with the position of Crown Prince, would actually control the four major legions of the Hulao Pass. It's funny that the First Prince and the Second Prince are still fighting to the death in the Imperial Capital. Haha."
Chu Wuming's actions were indeed unexpected to the Blood Moon Guard Commander. Compared to Chu Wushuang and Chu Wuque, Chu Wuming's methods were more brilliant, decisive, and ruthless.
Hearing the Blood Moon Guard Commander's words, Chu Wuming did not refute and shook his head bitterly. "I have no choice."
This simple sentence fully expressed the helplessness in Chu Wuming's heart. Chu Wuming was ambitious, but Chu Wuming did not have the slightest chance of winning against his First Brother and Second Brother. Therefore, he could only take the risk to have the chance to turn defeat into victory.
Hearing Chu Wuming's words, the Blood Moon Guard Commander paused slightly. He could tell that Chu Wuming was not lying. Besieging and killing the Blood Moon Guards was also a choice that Chu Wuming had no choice.
There was no other choice. The Blood Moon Guards blocked Chu Wuming's path to power, so they could only be eliminated.
Taking a deep breath, the matter was already settled. The Blood Moon Guards were destroyed, and Chu Wuming had millions of troops in his hands. Now, as long as Chu Wuming gave an order, not to mention Chu Wushuang and Chu Wuque, even Chu Mu would have to retreat. A mere Crown Prince position was already in Chu Wuming's bag. Furthermore, Chu Wuming even had the ability to fight for the supreme Emperor position and could even force Chu Mu to give up his position.
Chu Wushuang and Chu Wuque were no match for Chu Wuming, and similarly, Chu Mu was no match for Chu Wuming. From today onwards, Chu Wuming would be the true master of the Moonless Empire. Even if Chu Wuque did not fight for that position, Chu Mu would definitely be a figurehead. At that time, the Crown Prince would be in charge of the Moonless Empire, and the Emperor would not have any power.
Looking calmly at Chu Wuming, the Blood Moon Guard Commander said indifferently, "Your Highness, there is no one who can stop you now. Before I die, may I be so bold as to ask, what do you plan to do with the First Prince and Second Prince in the future?"
Chu Wuming's ascension to power was inevitable, and no one could stop him. As such, the First Prince and Second Prince, Chu Wushuang, would be in an awkward position as their existence would always be a threat to Chu Wuming.
Hearing the Blood Moon Guard Commander's words, Chu Wuming slightly exhorted before coldly spitting out a word, "Kill."
Chu Wuming had already thought of how to deal with Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang. They could only be killed, and the two of them definitely could not be allowed to live. As long as they were alive, regardless of the time, they were a potential danger to Chu Wuming.
As though he had already guessed Chu Wuming's answer, the Blood Moon Guard Commander did not change his expression and continued to ask, "Then, how does Your Highness plan to deal with His Majesty? Still kill? "
