"Taking the imperial palace of the Cloudsurge Empire shouldn't be something that can be done in a short amount of time. If the Rain Abbess suddenly returns, no one on our side will be the Rain Abbess' opponent." Jianchen voiced his worries. After all, this was no small matter. If they directly attacked the imperial capital of the Cloudsurge Empire, they would definitely become irreconcilable grievances and completely offend the Rain Abbess.
"You don't have to worry about that. Since our Heavenly Demon Religion is bold enough to attack the imperial capital of the Cloudsurge Empire, we've obviously made sufficient preparations. We can deal with any unexpected situations," Cheng Ming swore. Victory was within his grasp.
"Originally, our Heavenly Demon Religion was going to attack the Cloudsurge Empire in a month's time. Due to the fact that our Heavenly Demon Religion is at a disadvantage in terms of Chaotic Primes, we still need to go through some battles before we can be completely confident. However, your appearance has allowed us to attack earlier."
"Of course, there's no need for you to agree immediately. Tell me your decision in three days. Right now, you should go see Xiao Ling and Xiao Jin. They've already returned," with that, Cheng Ming controlled the power of the divine hall to send Jianchen back to the hall from before.
The protectors of the Tianyuan family continued to wait there quietly. However, the uneasiness and uneasiness hidden within their hearts were clearly visible on their faces.
However, Jian Chen did not pay any attention to them. His gaze had already locked onto the two figures that had appeared in the crowd.
The two figures were a man and a woman. The woman looked like a child, no more than twelve or thirteen years old. She wore a long white dress, and her naturally beautiful face was filled with innocence, with a hint of childishness. With a single glance, one could tell that she was a little girl who had yet to mature.
The other man seemed to be seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he also seemed young, he gave off a presence of slaughter that did not match his age at all. Vaguely, he seemed to give off the heavy smell of blood.
He seemed like a merciless god of slaughter who had just retreated from a battlefield filled with corpses. The blood of countless enemies had washed over him. It was heavy and pungent.
The two of them were Xiao Jin and Xiao Ling who had not been seen for many years.
"Big brother!" Seeing Jianchen, Xiao Ling's eyes turned red. She let out a cry of surprise and hugged Jianchen tightly.
"Xiao Ling, I've finally found you. Have you been well in the past few years?" Jian Chen smiled as he revealed his true feelings. He gently rubbed Xiao Ling's head and asked gently.
Decades had passed, but Xiao Ling hadn't changed at all. His temperament was still the same as it was decades ago.
"Brother!" Little Jin spoke. He looked at Jianchen, his eyes filled with joy.
In the past few decades, Xiao Jin had changed a lot. Whether it was in terms of strength or intelligence, it was no longer the same as before.
Right now, he wore golden armor. His golden hair draped over his shoulders without any restraints. The presence of slaughter and the smell of blood swirled around him. Who knew how much blood he had been stained with and how many trials of life and death he had gone through, making him seem like a little god of slaughter.
"Xiao Jin, you've grown up!" Jianchen stared deeply at Xiao Jin as he felt gratified. Just from his presence, he could tell that Xiao Jin was someone who could truly hold his own. He was no longer the ignorant child of the past.
"I never thought that you'd already become a Divine King, and you've even reached the mid Divine King realm." Jianchen sighed in amazement as he saw through Xiao Jin's strength with a single glance.
Xiao Jin's strength had increased so quickly that it had caught him off guard.
"Brother, it's all thanks to grandpa Cheng that I'm able to achieve what I have today. It's because of grandpa Cheng that I've nurtured me with so many resources that I can reach the mid Divine King realm in such a short amount of time," said Xiao Jin. His voice was filled with respect for grandpa Cheng.
However, Xiao Jin seemed to think of something soon afterwards. His face dimmed as he sighed, "It's a pity that it's abnormally difficult for sister Xiao Ling to increase her strength. Otherwise, sister Xiao Ling would be able to reach the Divine King realm like me, or even surpass me."
"Hehe, I don't want to reach the Divine King realm. Cultivation is so boring. Anyway, I have grandpa Cheng and master to protect me in the Heavenly Demon Religion, and I have big brother to protect me outside. Moreover, brother Xiao Jin has become more powerful now. In the future, brother Xiao Jin will be able to protect me as well. Let's see who dares to bully me. Hmph …" Xiao Ling stuck out her tongue and said mischievously. She was innocent and truly carefree.
Xiao Jin fell silent when he saw how unconcerned Xiao Ling was. He had truly matured now, so he was able to look at problems from a more holistic perspective.
He understood that the only way to survive in this world was to become powerful.
Others might be able to protect you for a while, but they would not be able to protect you forever.
Jianchen stared at Xiao Ling silently. He obviously knew why Xiao Ling's strength was so difficult to increase. This was because Xiao Ling had a flaw in her body. This was an innate flaw that caused her intelligence to be unable to grow. After a long period of time, she was still stuck at the age of eleven or twelve.
It was relatively easier for Xiao Ling to increase her strength below Deity because there was no need to comprehend the laws of the world below Godhood. At the same time, Xiao Ling was a natural spirit, so she possessed the strength of the Origin realm as soon as she was born. She basically did not need to spend any time on cultivation, so the effects of her flaw were naturally not severe.
However, once she reached Godhood, she would need to comprehend the laws of the world at a corresponding level of comprehension for every step she took. Xiao Ling's lack of intelligence obviously became the greatest obstacle to her growth.
"Xiao Ling, I will definitely make up for your flaw so that you become perfect," Jianchen swore inside.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Jianchen met grand elder Cheng Ming again and agreed to work with the Heavenly Demon Religion to attack the imperial capital of the Cloudsurge Empire.
Cheng Ming was not surprised by this at all. He immediately ordered, "Alright. If that's the case, let's move out right now. Are the Cloud Demon, Wind Demon, Blood Demon, and Blade Demon present? "
"Greetings to the grand elder!" Silently, four figures hidden in the darkness appeared. Their presences were tremendous, possessing terrifying power that could overturn mountains.
The four of them were the four generals of the Heavenly Demon Religion.
The Heavenly Demon Religion originally had five generals. One of them had died to the hands of the Heavenless Demon Exalt when the grand elder went to the Cloud Plane, so only the four of them remained.
Jianchen's eyes narrowed. He could tell with a single glance that the four of them were Chaotic Primes.
However, they all treated Cheng Ming very politely at this moment.
"Pass down my orders. Mobilize the army immediately and formally attack the Cloudsurge Empire!" The grand elder called out.
