"Alright, I'll go with Brother Jiang Chen."
A middle-aged man who seemed to be around the same age as Yang Yu took a step forward. This middle-aged man had an incomparably sturdy build. His cultivation base was the same as Yang Yu's, intermediate Immortal Venerable realm. Although his qi was slightly weaker than Yang Yu's, it was still very terrifying. He was the Ninth Wangye of Great Qian Empire.
"Brother Chen, I'll go with you."
Yan Chenyu said.
"Little Yu, we still don't know the specific situation of Heavenly Jade Dynasty and Great Cloud Empire. You'd better stay in Imperial Capital. I'm worried that Great Cloud Empire might have colluded with powerful Nefarious Devils. You can't judge the actions of Nefarious Devils with common sense. We can rest assured if you stay in Imperial Capital. If anything happens to Imperial Capital, it will be too late for regrets."
It'll be too late for regrets if something happens to the Imperial Capital, "said Jiang Chen. He had the Great Divination Art, which allowed him to sense many things. It was best for Yan Chenyu to stay in the Imperial Capital.
"But Brother Chen, the three Immortal Courts are after your life. Although the deterrence of the Golden Clan has stopped the Immortal Courts from attacking you openly, there's no guarantee that they won't attack you secretly. So I'm still worried about you going alone."
Yan Chenyu spoke worriedly.
"Don't worry. Immortal Sovereigns have their own dignity and pride, especially the Immortal Sovereigns of the Immortal Courts. If it's an ordinary half-step Sovereign, I won't have a problem staying alive even if I can't handle it. Your Brother Chen isn't someone who can be killed easily. Over the years, there have been many people who wanted to kill me, but I'm still alive and well."
Jiang Chen said with a smile. He knew that Yan Chenyu was worried about him, but he wasn't afraid at all. Whether it was the Immortal Courts or the evil devils of Great Cloud Empire and Heavenly Jade Dynasty, Jiang Chen didn't put them in his eyes. His life was full of challenges. There was still some time before the appointment with Nangong Wentian. During this period of time, Jiang Chen had been worrying about having nothing to do. Now that the war had come and Great Qian Empire had fallen into a crisis, Jiang Chen naturally had to do his part.
Furthermore, if he was lucky enough to advance to the half-step Immortal Venerable realm, Jiang Chen's combat strength would be even more terrifying. His priority now was to improve his cultivation base. Otherwise, it wouldn't be easy for him to help Nangong Wentian even after he had arrived in Fengchi Immortal Domain.
"Alright. In that case, you have to be careful, Brother Chen."
Yan Chenyu nodded her head. She knew that once Jiang Chen made his decision, no one would be able to change his mind. Besides, she had always been very confident in Jiang Chen. From the Saint Origin realm until now, Jiang Chen had gone through a lot of trials and tribulations, and he had met countless powerful warriors. But in the end, he had still made it to where he was today. All his enemies had turned into dust in the end.
"Let's not delay any further. Let's depart now."
Jiang Chen said.
Subsequently, he led Jiu Wangye, Yang Bufan and the elder who reported the news and left the Imperial Capital, heading towards the direction of the war.
Along the way, the elder followed beside Jiu Wangye and asked in a low voice, "Wangye, this Jiang Chen is merely a late Immortal Emperor. Why did the Emperor give him such an important task?"
The elder couldn't understand. Although he had heard about Jiang Chen's deeds during this period of time, because he had never left Crane Hawk City, he didn't know much about Jiang Chen. In his point of view, it was child's play for the Emperor to give such an important task to an Immortal Emperor. Moreover, even someone like Jiu Wangye had to follow behind Jiang Chen as a foil. The Emperor had overestimated Jiang Chen.
"What do you know? If we really fight, I won't be a match for Brother Jiang Chen. "
Jiu Wangye glared at the elder.
"What?"
The elder's face was full of disbelief. He looked at Jiang Chen with disbelief and chose to remain silent. Although he hadn't seen Jiang Chen's means and didn't know much about Jiang Chen, he believed that the Emperor would never treat this matter as child's play. Moreover, the fact that Jiu Wangye could say such words was enough to prove that Jiang Chen was extraordinary.
Wan City!
This was a relatively large and prosperous city, but it was currently engulfed in the flames of war. The general who guarded the city was called Liu Lang, a late Immortal Emperor. At this moment, he was leading the soldiers of Great Qian Empire to fight against the enemy outside the city gate. They had cast a powerful formation and united their combat strength.
On the opposite side, there were hundreds of soldiers of Great Cloud Empire. On the surface, Great Qian Empire seemed to have the upper hand. However, the morale of the soldiers of Great Qian Empire was extremely low because the general of the enemy was a half-step Immortal Venerable. Additionally, the tragic death of General Lu Sheng had cast a huge shadow on their hearts.
"We're finished. We can't defend Wan City any longer. I think we'd better retreat."
"That's right. Great Cloud Empire is too strong. That general's cultivation base has already reached the half-step Immortal Venerable realm. Even if we cast the grand formation, we won't be able to hold on for long.
… …
The morale of the soldiers of Great Qian Empire was dispirited. They already had the intention to retreat even before the battle began.
"Shut up! Wan City must be defended. The Imperial Capital will send reinforcements soon."
Liu Lang, who was clad in military uniform, yelled at the soldiers.
The importance of Wan City wasn't any less than that of Crane Hawk City. If Wan City was lost, Great Qian Empire would lose half of its territory, which would greatly affect the dignity of the empire.
"Yes, General! We're willing to live and die with Wan City!"
A general shouted with bloodshot eyes. They had deep feelings for Wan City. If they were to retreat without a fight and surrender Wan City to someone else, they would be the sinners of the Great Qian Empire.
"Liu Lang, don't put up a stubborn resistance. Great Qian Empire will soon face destruction. Do you think you can defend Wan City with just these people? That's simply wishful thinking. I'll give you a chance now. As long as you surrender, our empire will surely reward you handsomely. "
The leading general of Great Cloud Empire yelled. He was a half-step Immortal Venerable expert. Although he had just advanced to the half-step Immortal Venerable realm, he wasn't someone that Liu Lang could fight.
"If you want Wan City, you'll have to do it over my dead body."
Liu Lang's qi soared into the sky. He seemed to be an iron-blooded man who would rather die than submit.
"Since you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, don't blame me for being impolite. Attack! Kill them all!"
The general gave the order. The soldiers of Great Cloud Empire charged towards Great Qian Empire with high morale as if they were injected with chicken blood.
"Ah … …"
