At dawn.
To the east of the Drifting Cloud Mountain, the four camps of the Tian Jue God Nation were all lit up.
In the third camp, a meeting was being held in a majestic palace.
In the vast and majestic meeting hall, there were more than 20 generals in golden armor standing in an orderly manner.
The generals waited patiently. Occasionally, there would be people secretly communicating, but they would all lower their voices and keep quiet.
In the north of the hall, there was a high platform made of white jade.
On the high platform, there was a magnificent throne. On it sat a middle-aged man in a purple robe with white hair and beard!
This man was thin and tall. His face was sickly white, but he was exceptionally handsome.
Although his hair, beard, and eyebrows were all white, his face did not look old. He was like a handsome man in his forties.
The most obvious feature was the purple mark on his forehead.
It was a lifelike small sword, flickering with a faint purple light. Occasionally, there would be flashes of lightning.
This man was the commander of the million-strong army, the commander of the Tian Jue God Nation's Immortal Guards, and Martial God Tian Jue's most trusted general …
Martial Saint Ye Liushui!
He was leaning on the wide throne with his eyes closed. He did not move at all, nor did he breathe. He was like a stone statue.
Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the hall.
A black-armored lieutenant rushed into the hall in a hurry. He knelt on the ground and reported, "Reporting to the Saint Emperor, there's news from District D."
The hall instantly quieted down. Over twenty golden-armored generals turned to look at the commanding officer in unison.
Martial Saint Ye Liushui also slowly opened his eyes. In his deep black eyes, there was a flash of purple lightning.
"Speak!"
He opened his thin lips slightly and uttered a low and cold word.
The messenger officer hurriedly reported, "Reporting to the Holy Emperor, there are sounds of fighting coming from the 36th district. The Black Spirit Guards have already made their move and exposed their whereabouts. They are fighting with the guards..."
Ye Liushui nodded slightly and said indifferently, "Leave!"
The messenger captain bowed respectfully and left the Conference Hall.
The twenty or so golden-armored generals all looked excited and expectant. They were all rubbing their fists and palms together.
"That's great! With the efficiency of the Black Spirit Guards, they can kill all the guards within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn! "
"Based on my estimations, the battle should have ended by now. All the trash from the Luoshui Divine Nation should have been killed, right?"
"Lord Saint Emperor's plan is truly ingenious, toying with the people of the Luo River Divine Nation in the palm of his hand!
The idiots of the Luo River God Nation scattered their forces, wanting to defend more than 30 mining areas at the same time.
However, Lord Saint Emperor has sent out over a hundred Black Spirit Guards to attack District D. They can take it down in the blink of an eye! "
"The Black Spirit Guards' mission has been completed. Next, it's time for us to take over the mining area!"
"All the benefits have been taken by you guys. Now, it should be my turn, right?"
"Lord Saint Emperor, please send this general to District D to clean up the mess and occupy the mining area!"
"Lord Saint Emperor, this general is also willing to go!"
All the generals were discussing among themselves. A few of them volunteered themselves and couldn't wait to occupy the mining area.
Ye Liushui's eyes swept across the hall. Wherever he looked, no one dared to look him in the eyes. They all lowered their heads respectfully.
In the blink of an eye, all the generals shut their mouths and the hall quieted down.
Ye Liushui then said expressionlessly, "We have already crossed the Drifting Cloud Mountain and are 100,000 miles into the Luoshui Divine Nation.
The deeper we go into the Sunset Divine Mine and the more mining areas we occupy, the more dangerous our situation will be.
At this juncture, we can't let our guard down!
Wait! Continue to wait for news! "
His deep and cold voice contained a soul-stirring power. It was as if a mountain was pressing down on them.
All the generals lowered their heads and didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Ye Liushui closed his eyes again and didn't speak.
Time passed silently. Everyone stood in place and waited patiently.
After about half an hour, footsteps sounded outside the hall again.
It was the same messenger officer. He rushed into the hall like a gust of wind and knelt on the ground with a pale face. He anxiously reported, "Lord Saint Emperor, something bad has happened!"
All the generals were in an uproar. They were all stunned and confused as they stared at the messenger officer.
Ye Liushui also opened his eyes and frowned. He asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
The messenger officer said anxiously, "Lord Saint Emperor, the Black Spirit Guards have received news that they were assassinated by a mysterious expert and suffered heavy casualties!"
"What?" Ye Liushui's face immediately changed. His eyes were filled with a cold light.
The faces of all the generals turned pale with fright, and they began to clamor on the spot.
"The Black Spirit Guards were attacked by an expert and suffered heavy casualties?"
"There are more than 110 Black Spirit Guards and they are all experts in the Tribulation Stage. How could they suffer heavy casualties?"
"Didn't the people of the Luoshui Divine Nation scatter their forces to protect the mining areas? How did they know that the Black Spirit Guards were going to attack District D? "
"This is impossible! There must be a problem with the news! "
No one believed this news and couldn't accept this result.
Ye Liushui's face was as cold as ice and his eyes were as sharp as knives. He ordered in a deep voice, "Leave and confirm the news!"
The messenger officer bowed and was about to leave the hall.
At this moment, another black figure rushed into the hall and knelt on the ground in panic. He shouted hoarsely, "Lord Saint Emperor! The Black Spirit Guards suffered heavy casualties and only 13 of them managed to escape! "
This black figure was also a messenger officer.
The terrified and panicked voice was like a thunderclap exploding in the main hall, shocking everyone on the spot.
All the generals were petrified. They were all dumbfounded and their faces were filled with horror.
Even Ye Liushui stood up with a 'swish' sound. His eyes were wide open and his face was dark as he stared at the commanding officer.
"You, say it again!"
The messenger officer who knelt on the ground was sweating profusely under Ye Liushui's invisible pressure. He was terrified.
He was almost crawling on the ground. He opened his mouth with great difficulty and said word by word, "The Black Spirit Guards were almost completely annihilated. Only 13 of them managed to escape and they were all seriously injured!"
When he finished speaking, Ye Liushui slowly closed his eyes and raised his head. His body also trembled slightly.
"Crack!"
The purple sword mark on his forehead shot out a bolt of purple lightning and struck the messenger lieutenant, turning him into a pile of black ash on the spot.
A violent killing intent that could destroy the world burst out from Ye Liushui's body and rushed into the sky!
Everyone in the main hall was so scared that they were trembling, and they all knelt down on the ground.
No one dared to make a sound. Even if their clothes were soaked in cold sweat, they didn't dare to wipe it off.
After a long time, Ye Liushui suppressed his anger and withdrew his killing intent.
He opened his eyes again and looked indifferently to the east. It was as if he had seen the Sunset City through the Drifting Cloud Mountain.
"Su Changyun! You were forced into a dead end and had no other choice. You ignored the agreement between the two countries and personally killed my Black Spirit Guards!
