Zhao Hai wasn't wrong, this battle was indeed a bitter one. Ever since the formation of the Lost Soul Empire's fleet, they had experienced bitter battles like this. When they fought against the Evil Ghost Sect, they didn't experience such a bitter battle. After all, the Evil Ghost Sect didn't have enough warships. Although they did bring some trouble to the Lost Soul Empire, they still didn't experience such a bitter battle.
Because of this, Zhao Hai put away his thoughts of making a move. The Lost Soul Empire's army needed this kind of bitter battle, especially their fleet. Zhao Hai was very clear that after this battle, the Lost Soul Empire's fleet had truly matured.
This battle lasted for more than ten hours, from day to night. Even after dark, the sea beasts finally retreated. According to Zhao Hai's calculations, there were more than ten thousand sea beasts attacking them. But now, the total number of sea beasts that retreated didn't exceed five thousand. More than half of the casualties were the sea beasts. If they were replaced by people, then they wouldn't have been able to resist.
The losses of the Lost Soul Empire's fleet were also very heavy. Out of the five thousand warships, they lost nearly a thousand. All of the warships were damaged and couldn't sail. Some of them lost their ability to float in the sky and fell to the sea.
On the other hand, the number of sword boats lost exceeded ten thousand, and the number of casualties reached twenty thousand. This kind of casualty was very big for a fleet. However, in Wen Liben's opinion, this kind of casualty could be described as negligible. One must know that they were fighting against more than ten thousand sea beasts. This kind of casualty was almost negligible in the face of such an opponent.
After the battle, Zhao Hai didn't order the fleet to set off. Instead, he ordered the fleet to rest until dawn. At the same time, he also called the commanders of the ships to the Ghost King Ship for a meeting. He wanted to summarize the results of the battle. At the same time, the damaged ships were all arranged to be towed away, they wouldn't be left in the sea.
Wen Liben stayed on the ghost king warship, and had his own room. Several experts from the Crown Prince's mansion also went to his room in the evening. Wen Liben wasn't the only one who was shaken by the events of the day, but also by all the experts in the Crown Prince's mansion.
Wen Liben looked at these people and said, "Everyone, you have also seen the battle today. What do you think?"
Those people looked at each other in dismay, they didn't know what to think. One of them said, "I fully support His Highness' decision. We can't be enemies with the Lost Soul Empire."
Wen Liben nodded and said, "Your Highness, after seeing the Lost Soul Empire last time, you thought that we shouldn't make them our enemy. Now it seems that this is indeed the case. The strength of the Lost Soul Empire is beyond our imagination. Your Highness has taken the right step. What we need to do now is to establish good relations with the people of the Lost Soul Empire. This will be very important for Your Highness in the future."
Several people nodded, then Wen Liben said, "When befriending the people of the Lost Soul Empire, we need to pay attention to propriety. Don't be too deliberate. Alright, let's stop here for today. We're now in someone else's territory, it's not good for us to discuss things together. Let's go back and rest." Several people nodded, then they turned around and left.
The night passed quickly. The next morning, Zhao Hai and the others didn't leave. They didn't wake up early, so they ate their breakfast before the fleet set out.
Zhao Hai didn't stay in the cabin, instead, he stood on the deck and looked at the sea. Yesterday's battle had dyed the sea red, and the red color still hasn't receded. In the sea, there were many carnivorous sea beasts that were fighting over the corpses of the dead sea beasts. These sea beasts weren't sentient, so Zhao Hai didn't care about them.
This day, Zhao Hai and the others didn't move very fast. They went to rest early at night. Wen Liben also knew that Zhao Hai wanted the soldiers to rest as much as possible. Therefore, they didn't say anything and just chatted with the people on the Ghost King Ship. They didn't ask too much, it was just a normal conversation.
Zhao Hai looked at them and didn't say anything. He already knew what Wen Liben and the others were planning, so he didn't stop them. In any case, Wen Liben just wanted to befriend the people on the ship, he didn't want to harm the Lost Soul Empire.
After the night passed, Zhao Hai and the others set out again. This time, they were marching normally. They woke up early in the morning and had their breakfast after the ships set out. But after having breakfast, Zhao Hai called Wen Liben over and said, "Mister Wen, we're going to enter the Thick Earth Continent today. Tell me, which direction should we go?" Wen Liben nodded and said, "I'm going to enter the Thick Earth Continent today.
Zhao Hai had been to the Mountain God Empire before, so he naturally knew where it was. He asked Wen Liben to see if Wen Liben really wanted him to go there. Actually, Zhao Hai's understanding of the Thick Earth Continent wasn't any less than Wen Liben, it's just that Wen Liben didn't know about it.
Wen Liben didn't have any bad intentions, so he immediately pointed out the route. Zhao Hai didn't say anything, he just let the ship follow Wen Liben's instructions. After a day of flying, when it was almost dark, they arrived at the Thick Earth Continent. Zhao Hai didn't enter the Thick Earth Continent when it was dark. Instead, he had the fleet stop above the Thick Earth Continent. At the same time, he had the army and the fleet contact each other.
At this time, the fleet had already arrived in the Thick Earth Continent. Moreover, they were guarding the entrance and exit of the Thick Earth Continent. Everything was ready, they were just waiting for the arrival of the battle.
However, Zhao Hai wasn't in a hurry. He knew that the first enemy they would encounter in the Thick Earth Continent wouldn't be the Ghost Face Alliance. Instead, it would be the Mountain God Empire, the Thick Earth Continent Alliance.
Nothing happened during the night. Zhao Hai thought that there would be sea beasts attacking them, but the people in the fleet said that there weren't many sea beasts left in the Thick Earth Continent. Even if there were sea beasts, they wouldn't have any intelligence. Zhao Hai didn't think that there would be any sea beasts that would attack them.
Although Zhao Hai didn't know where the Sea Beasts went, it was good that they didn't disturb them. This way, they could have a good night's sleep. The next morning, the fleet entered the Thick Earth Continent and directly rushed towards the Mountain God Empire.
The Mountain God Empire had a side that was close to the sea. Therefore, Zhao Hai's fleet directly entered the Mountain God Empire. This action was something that the people of the Mountain God Empire didn't expect. Even Huang Shan didn't expect this.
Under Zhao Hai's command, the Lost Soul Empire's fleet directly arrived at the Mountain God Nation's capital. When the people in the city saw the fleet, they couldn't help but feel that it was the end of the world. At this time, they didn't have any thoughts of resistance.
Huang Shan was also inside the Imperial Palace. He stared blankly at the fleet of the Lost Soul Empire. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that the Lost Soul Empire's fleet would be this huge. But now that he saw it with his own eyes, he understood why Huang Xinglong told him not to become enemies with the Lost Soul Empire.
However, Huang Shan wasn't willing to give up. Controlling the Five Spirit Worlds in the hands of the Thick Earth Continent and the Mountain God Nation was part of his plan. He had been working on this plan even before the ghost face had started causing trouble. However, it had taken him a lot longer and required a lot more effort to implement.
Ever since Ghost Face appeared and knew about the existence of the Demon God, Yellow Mountain had an idea. He wanted to use Ghost Face to achieve his goal. However, he didn't expect that things would turn out like this. His plan completely failed. Not only did they fail to destroy Ghost Face and control the Five Spiritual Realms, they were also suppressed by Ghost Face. In the end, there was also the emergence of an Enchanting Soul Empire that they couldn't resist. This made Yellow Mountain feel extremely aggrieved.
Now that things have already happened, Huang Shan had no other choice. Even if he wanted to resist, it would be impossible for him to do so. The army had already arrived at his capital. If he were to resist at this time, then he would be courting death. However, Huang Shan didn't give up, he felt that he still had a chance. As long as he pretended to surrender and cooperated with the people of the Lost Soul Empire, then the people of the Lost Soul Empire wouldn't make things difficult for him. When the time comes, he would be able to accumulate his strength and then look for an opportunity to escape the Lost Soul Empire.
After thinking about this, Huang Shan couldn't help but let out a long breath. Then he looked at the battleships in the sky and said, "Come, send an order to the other Emperors. We'll go see the Lost Soul Empire together."
At this time, Huang Shan saw a warship from the Lost Soul Empire's fleet flying out and slowly descending towards the city. Before long, the warship arrived above the Imperial Palace. Then a small boat flew out from the warship and slowly landed on the ground of the Imperial Palace. Then 10 people walked down from the boat. The leader was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance. He had two people by his side. The person on the left was wearing armor and had a large sword on his back. The person on the right was also wearing armor. However, it was unknown what the armor was made of, it looked like it was made of jade. The armor was white and very beautiful. Two sledgehammers were hanging on his waist, swaying back and forth.
Huang Shan looked at the leader and said in a deep voice, "Who are you? Did you send me to see the Lost Soul Empire's Emperor? I've already sent people to invite the other Emperors. After they arrive, we'll go see Emperor Zhao Hai together. Please wait for a moment. "
Zhao Hai looked at Huang Shan and chuckled, "Hehe, alright. Then I'll wait for a while. Let's talk about it after everyone arrives." He really didn't care about Huang Shan. Huang Shan was standing in front of him, yet he didn't recognize him. It can be seen that Huang Shan was a fool. There was no need to pay attention to such a person.
Huang Shan looked at the person who spoke and didn't mind. He just stood there and waited. Before long, the Emperors of the Heavy Earth Continent arrived, including Huang Xinglong. When Huang Xinglong saw Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but stare. But when he saw Huang Shan's expression, he didn't say anything. He just went to Huang Shan's side and stood there.
After everyone arrived, Huang Shan looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Everyone, please lead the way. We'll go see Emperor Zhao Hai." Upon hearing Huang Shan, Huang Xinglong couldn't help but stare. Then his expression couldn't help but change. Just as he was about to speak, Zhao Hai opened his mouth.
"There's no need for that. Didn't I arrive half a day ago? Since you've already seen me, there's no need to greet him. "
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Huang Shan and the others stared. Then they looked at Zhao Hai in disbelief. They didn't think that Zhao Hai would personally come to the Imperial Palace. Moreover, he only brought a few people with him. It must be known that the Mountain Divine Nation hasn't officially surrendered to the Lost Soul Empire. Moreover, the relationship between the two sides wasn't very good. In this case, Zhao Hai coming to the Imperial Palace was akin to putting himself in danger.
Huang Shan stared at Zhao Hai. He really wanted to capture Zhao Hai and then negotiate with the Lost Soul Empire. However, his rationality told him that this was impossible. If Zhao Hai dared to come here, then he must have a backup plan. If they act rashly, then Zhao Hai wouldn't be polite.
Zhao Hai looked at Huang Shan and then at the others. Then he smiled faintly and said, "Aren't you surprised that I dared to come here? Haha. Actually, this isn't strange at all. This is because I didn't put you in my eyes. You don't dare to make a move against me, and you can't make a move against me. Because once you make a move against me, then death will be waiting for you. "
Zhao Hai's words were like a cold wind, causing the temperature of the entire Imperial Palace to drop by ten degrees. Everyone couldn't help but shiver. This was the first time that Zhao Hai released his Killing Intent. His Killing Intent made everyone tremble. Only the people around Zhao Hai weren't affected.
Zhao Hai looked at Huang Shan and said, "Huang Shan, I know what you're thinking. You're unwilling to surrender to the Lost Soul Empire. Otherwise, you would've already sent people to contact us. Although you want to surrender, you're just stalling for time. You want to wait for me to accept your surrender so that you can rebel against me at the right time. Am I right?"
Yellow Mountain's complexion changed as he stared at Zhao Hai. He didn't know how Zhao Hai knew about his plan, but Zhao Hai's words made him very scared. This was because he knew that if Zhao Hai really wanted to surrender, then he wouldn't be able to escape death. Therefore, he immediately bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty misunderstood, I really want to surrender." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "You're mistaken.
"Hahaha. You really want to surrender? This is the funniest joke I've ever heard. Huang Shan, you're really lucky because you have a good son. Your son won you a chance to live. If it weren't for your son, you would be a dead man now. It's impossible for me to kill the father of someone who's about to become my subordinate. Therefore, you're really lucky. "Huang Shan smiled.
