"His Majesty has news …"
Hu Zhongyuan's face was filled with joy at this moment. For a month, they didn't know where Zong Shou was.
Even if the Mysterious Life Golden Book in the Common People's Vast Habitat had Zong Shou's name, they were still worried and on tenterhooks.
Only now did their hearts fall back into their stomachs.
Da Qian had a cabinet, war matters had the Privy Court and Five Army Inspectorate.
Even without Zong Shou, country matters should be able to run on their own. However, the truth wasn't so. When Zong Shou wasn't here, although everyone had their own roles, they couldn't be at ease.
Only after knowing where Zong Shou was did they have a pillar of support in their hearts.
Kong Yao who was investigating the battle situation was woken up. She turned around with a weird expression, her eyes filled with questions.
Hu Zhongyuan's expression instantly turned solemn, "It was a person called Li Xin who brought His Majesty's decree to Gantian Mountain. I heard that he was half a step to End Realm and was one of the helpers His Majesty recruited. He was ordered by His Majesty to head to the Celestial World to take charge and lead the cavalry … "
Seeing Kong Yao frown unhappily, Hu Zhongyuan knew what was going on. He smiled, "He said that His Majesty is safe but is trapped in a small world fragment. He will be able to return in a few days."
Kong Yao was deep in thought. She didn't know what kind of space fragment could cause Zong Shou to be unable to move.
Just as she was deep in thought, there was a loud explosion not far ahead.
Looking out, one could see a huge earthquake shaking. In front of the city pass, it was originally a flat wilderness. At this moment, there were giant cracks that spread all about. Like a spiderweb, it stretched towards the city wall.
"Earth Splitting Technique!"
Kong Yao's eyes rolled, but she didn't move at all. The Earth Splitting Technique was just a Grade Four Celestial Technique. However, if the people who cast it were two Saint Realm Experts and three thousand spirit masters. Then, the strength of Power Power was enough to shake mountains in the Cloud World.
To deal with this unfinished city was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
However, there was no need for her to worry at this moment. Hundreds of sword lights suddenly struck and stabbed in front of the pass city.
In the center was a humongous object with a sword body of a thousand feet. Hundreds of swords surrounded it.
When the eye of the crack closed in, it immediately exploded into countless rays of yellow light that scattered into the air.
"These sects are being dishonest again!"
Hu Zhongyuan scoffed coldly, "Luckily during the God Falling Plains battle, we wiped out all the spirit masters that the Taishang worshipped."
During the battle in the south, the Taishang Dynasty lost 70% of their spirit masters. Their overall strength was actually slightly weaker than the Da Qian Dynasty. However, if one added in the huge territory that needed to be defended and suppressed, it was as good as nothing.
At this moment, about a tenth of the Spirit Masters in the Lord of Shang were from the Shi Family. The rest were mostly from sects and the aristocratic families of the southwest. The rest were the Demon Path Sects …
"The Taishang and the Demon Path are working together. Yin Yuanchen is destroying his own wall! Sooner or later, he will lose all the hearts of the people! "
The person who spoke was dressed in a green shirt and carried a long sword. It was the Kenzō Sect's Ruotao who forcefully scattered the Earth Splitting Celestial Technique. It was the Kenzō Sect's doing.
The Hundred Victory Pass battle concerned the rise and fall of the six factions of the Cloud World. Even the Kenzō Sect had to pay attention.
As the next Palace Head of the Ten Thousand Sword Vast Habitat, Ruotao represented the entire Kenzō Sect here.
On the other hand, the Buddhist Faction needed to continue suppressing the tens of millions of corpse troops around the tomb and didn't have much strength to spare.
"Destroying his own wall? That might not be the case. If the Confucians and Demon Path can work together, then naturally, Yin Yu wouldn't care. "
Suchen laughed coldly, "With the twelve Copper Men and Wushang Yuan Demon suppressing, he won't be able to do anything. Even if the five factions work together, he wouldn't fear them. Moreover, the Taoist Faction would be happy to see this happen. As for Zhu Zi's Confucian Faction, he would only try to persuade him. If he doesn't succeed, then he would just stand aside and watch. Who knows, he might be laughing. When the time is right, he would come out to clean up the mess. If Yin Yu wants to rule the country, he still needs to rely on the Confucians … "
As he said that, Suchen's face twisted. He was filled with rage and his eyes turned red, "Jin Buhui just mocked him to wake Yin Yu up and not let the same thing happen again. However, he was cut in half. That idiot's head is still hanging on the city gates of the Imperial City. Those people don't know and thought that he was a traitor. Each time he passed, they would curse and spit. After he died, he was humiliated! "
Speaking of Jin Buhui, everyone present was silent. They were all familiar with Jin Buhui and also knew that this person was Zong Shou's sworn brother who had gone through life and death situations together.
If Zong Shou returned and knew that his Sworn Brother ended up like that, who knows how he would react?
At this moment, Yin Yu didn't have anything to worry about …
However, Da Qian couldn't appear. On one hand, his current strength wasn't enough. The Celestial World was at its most dangerous moment. On the other hand, he couldn't.
If Da Qian sent an envoy to ask for Jin Buhui's corpse, wouldn't he be looking on as Jin Buhui betrayed the country?
Kong Yao thought back to the past. At that time, didn't she see Yin Yu as a wise Ruler?
However, looking from afar, she had a different feeling. A few years ago, just to recruit Da Qian to fight against the Night Demon Army, he treated her as a chess piece and abandoned her without hesitation.
That time left a deep impression on her and she felt really fortunate now!
"Yin Yu isn't an arrogant person. His actions might be to anger His Majesty!"
Ten thousand feet out, balls of flames were lit up. Those chariots were lit up one by one. The Shang Army on the city walls had been cleared out.
The main general, Ren Tianxing, walked over with a majestic gait, his eyes shining like stars.
"Do you remember what Yin Yu told the envoy to convey a month ago? If you want reinforcements, you need Kong Shuai to enter the Imperial City as a hostage. If His Majesty gets angry because of this, he will send troops. He will fall into Yin Yu's trap. "
Hu Zhongyuan clenched his fists, and his joints kept making cracking sounds.
Yinyu's original words were: 'Zhen has seen his beloved concubine, Kong Yao. Her beauty is unparalleled in this world. I have been thinking about her, so I can invite her to the Imperial City as a hostage. "
Between the two countries, it wasn't a big deal to use family members as hostages. However, hearing those words, he was obviously hinting that Emperor Yuanchen was drooling over Kong Yao's beauty.
How was that the words of a wise Ruler? Not only was it an insult to Zong Shou, but it was also an insult to the entire Da Qian Empire!
Even thinking about it now, Hu Zhongyuan still felt indignant and humiliated.
"Those Cabinet fellows are still asking for reinforcements? They know that it is impossible and still ask for it. They are just asking to be insulted! "
Old Prime Minister Ren was really muddle-headed. He knew that the Taishang Empire wouldn't send troops.
"The Cabinet didn't do anything wrong. They just showed respect and acted righteously."
Kong Yao shook her head and praised Ren Bo's actions. She also felt the same way about what Ren Tianxing said before.
Yin Yu obtained the twelve Copper Men and with Li Biexue as the Grand Teacher, he had the ability to support End Realm experts. Everything he did was done with a sharp spirit.
However, this person's strategy was really rare in the world.
He beat up the Shi Family such that Shi Qianli had no choice but to focus on attacking Jiangnan and not restrict the Imperial Family.
He also infuriated Zong Shou because of his intentions. He wanted to cause the Da Qian Empire to be at a loss and cause more pressure on the Taishang Empire.
Yin Yu wanted to attack the aristocratic families in the country as well as the various vassal towns.
Even if these powers knew that they couldn't win, they would still try their best to fight back and even fight to the death.
However, compared to the Da Qian Empire and the Dark Night Demon Court, these aristocratic families would rather continue to coexist with the Taishang Empire. They weren't willing to be robbed by the Night Demon Race or lose their power in the Da Qian Empire.
If Zong Shou was really furious and tossed aside Tianfang Shijie, he would send troops to fight Shi Qianli. No matter who won or lost, Yin Yu would be happy to see it happen. It was killing many birds with one stone.
"I still have the same thoughts as two days ago! This place is really dangerous, please move over to Jinling. "
Ren Tianxing stood like an iron tower and looked at Kong Yao stubbornly.
"With Ren Tianxing here, we will be able to defend for 10 more days! However, if anything happens to you, it will affect His Majesty's decision. Two days ago, you said that His Majesty's whereabouts were unknown. You need to calm down the troops here. Now that His Majesty is about to return, you should be able to calm them down … "
Kong Yao shook her head and didn't care, "The 12 Copper Men are in Yin Yu's hands and the Da Qian Empire is in danger. Only by taking charge of this place can I help my husband. We can't lose this pass! I will defend this place until the end and live and die with this city! "
Ren Tianxing frowned and looked towards Hu Zhongyuan in annoyance. The latter looked at him helplessly.
Kong Yao was really stubborn and if she made up her mind, even if the mountains collapsed and oceans split, she wouldn't change her mind. How would he be able to persuade her?
Ruotao and Suchen were filled with respect, thinking to themselves that as expected from Zong Shou's woman. As expected from the famous commander, she had such courage.
Standing here, she didn't need to give orders. The defending troops only needed to look at her and they would be filled with confidence.
Kong Yao was really calm. She understood Ren Tianxing's worries, but she definitely wouldn't compromise.
Only by defending here for a long time could she allow the Da Qian Empire to recruit more troops.
Only when Shi Qianli couldn't see any hope of taking down Jiangnan would he turn his attention back to the country. He would try his best to go up against Yin Yu and not rely on external forces to submit to Yin Yu.
Only by using up all the finances of the Taishang would the Taishang have no choice but to raise taxes and continue to attack the aristocratic families.
Only then would she be able to cause chaos within the country to fight back and restrict Yin Yu.
Zong Shou wasn't able to get the 12 Copper Men, so this was the only thing she could do for Zong Shou.
She was grateful for his help and also for the relationship between husband and wife.
"What is that?"
"Fire Crow? ‘
"Did Fire Crow Demon Lord arrive?"
The discussions woke Kong Yao up. She raised her head and looked at the sky, only to see many red birds flying out from the clouds. There were more and more of them, covering the entire sky.
They were all crows formed from spiritual flames. There were tens of thousands of them and they seemed endless.
Kong Yao's face sunk. If it was this person, then the battle today would be a little problematic.
This person's strength was just late Saint Realm. However, his techniques were especially suitable for sieging.
Originally, she wasn't afraid of this person. However, because the army was moved to the Celestial World and Jinling, they had less than 500 thousand troops.
Dozens of miles away, a broken gong-like laughter spread from afar.
"Emperor Yuanchen has spoken! If Kong Yao is willing to surrender, he will spare Zong Shou's life in the future! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
