Li Yunzi took in a deep breath.
Peng Chen and Peng Wu were two important gods. In recent years, they had been constantly persuading small continents like the Saint Watchtower Continent that had fallen in Tian Shu. As a result, they had established a very large foreign continent's holy army. Their strength was definitely not inferior to some of the gods' organizations.
When they decided to go to war with Tian Shu, Li Yunzi had deployed them to Giant Wing City, which was southeast of Tian Shu Divine City.
This deployment was rather secretive. In order not to be discovered, Peng Chen and Peng Wu had divided the holy army into six groups, which were scattered in the large cities southeast of Tian Shu Divine City. Only when the attack was officially launched would the six holy armies gather together like streams into a river and launch a ferocious attack on Tian Shu Divine City. They would also coordinate with the people hidden inside.
However, the forces that were hidden and deployed outside had all been destroyed!
Even the two important gods, Peng Chen and Peng Wu, were dead.
"Got it." Li Yunzi also reminded Commander Cheng before walking into the divine temple.
As soon as she entered the divine temple, her subordinates all rushed to report.
They were all news of people who held important positions outside suddenly dying. Li Yunzi could only ask someone to write it down. After writing it down, she found that the list was very long.
Many people had died.
There were servants with high cultivation, important commanders, and also some loyal loose immortals. There were also some important clans.
This long list even made Li Yunzi somewhat confused. Was the Tian Shu Divine Palace using its huge forces to carry out a great purge, or was it completely targeting them?
…
This continued for four days, and news of deaths came back one after another.
Finally, the thing that Li Yunzi was most worried about happened.
The divine guards of the Empress before leaving from the Polar Court Continent were ambushed by the Shura Clan led by Ming Meng God when they passed by Shenjiang City.
The entire army was defeated, and less than thirty percent of them survived.
This expedition from the Polar Court Continent was the main force of the divine guards against the ascetic monks and Golden Supremes.
What Li Yunzi did not expect was that before they even reached Xuan Ge Divine City, they had already been ruthlessly destroyed.
The person leading this army was the emperor of the Saint Watchtower Continent, Wang Honggeng. However, he was also captured, and his fate was unknown.
…
There was complete silence in the temple. All the generals couldn't believe what they had heard.
Their divine army, divine guards, and sacred army were clearly in the midst of preparation. They were clearly converging like a river that was about to engulf the Divine Universe. Yet, the battle seemed to have ended before it even began!
At this moment, Li Yunzi could feel an invisible hand choking her throat, making it difficult for her to breathe!
Everything he had painstakingly built up had been destroyed in just a few short days!!
Without the Divine Army, how could they compete with the Dubhe Divine Universe? No matter how high their cultivation was, they would be overwhelmed by the Dubhe Divine Universe!
Before the final battle with Hua Chou had even begun, they had already been utterly defeated.
Inside the temple, no one spoke for a long time. The things that had happened in the past few days could not be explained with common sense.
"I'm afraid it will be very difficult to compete with Hua Chou now. We might not even be able to see the divine pagoda in the divine city. I'm afraid we will have to leave Xuan Ge Divine Country and retreat to the Extreme Court Continent," Commander Cheng expressed his opinion.
"All of this is very sudden. Now, we are sure that the other side has a prophet who knows all of our deployments and movements. Our core members have been ambushed in a short period of time …" Zheng Yu said.
"Zheng Guofu means that even if we want to retreat to the Extreme Court Continent, the other side might know about it, and our retreat will not be smooth?" Nie Xiaoxuan asked.
Zheng Yu nodded. He glanced at Li Yunzi. Seeing that she was not speaking, he could only preside over the meeting himself. He used a calmer tone to continue discussing countermeasures with everyone.
All of their movements were known, and because all of the forces deployed outside had been removed, they had no idea what was happening outside.
Had the Divine Universe launched an attack?
Were the gods of Hua Chou's faction lying in ambush outside?
And how many powerful gods did they have?
It was all unknown!
They were in a passive position, and bad news kept coming in.
"Then we have no choice but to defend Xuan Ge Divine Capital. The Divine Capital is made up of four great holy cities. It's like a steel mountain. The sadhus and warrior monks of the Divine Universe will have to pay a heavy price if they want to invade," the new Battle Saint, Hu Gong, said.
"One of the holy cities was destroyed by the Evil Fallen Buddha. If the other side does have a prophet, they must know about it. Therefore, I'm guessing that they will attack from White Saint City soon. We have no choice but to defend the Divine Capital … Have we strengthened the defense of White Saint City?" Zheng Yu asked.
"Three days ago, we sent more people as per Her Majesty's orders," Battle Saint, Hu Gong, said.
"Don't worry, the people from Alioth Star Palace will arrive in a few days. Xuan Ge Holy Capital is easy to defend and hard to attack. If the people from Tian Shu Holy Universe come, it's not a bad thing for us. We can use the defensive mountains and formations in the Holy Capital to fight against Tian Shu Holy Universe," said Linghu Ling.
Linghu Ling had received accurate information. The Chief God, Meng Bingci, had arrived with the Fairies, Heaven Highnesses, and Sword Gods. Even though there were not many of them, they were all Swordsman experts!
"Some of our fellow disciples from the Immortal Mountain will be here too. Don't panic," Caiyou said to boost the morale.
Caiyou had only arrived a few days ago.
When they went to Shadowed Scar, Caiyou had also entered the breakthrough stage. Zhu Minglang asked her to stay in Alioth and cultivate with Meng Bingci so that her cultivation would not be affected.
Caiyou did not disappoint. She broke through her own cultivation and stepped into Shen Jun's cultivation.
Of course, Caiyou's breakthrough was also related to Zhu Minglang's increase in strength. After all, Caiyou was Zhu Minglang's god servant. The improvement of Zhu Minglang's Godhead and Soul was also a great benefit for someone as devout as her!
Her arrival was also a ray of light after all the bad news of the past few days.
The fellow disciples Caiyou mentioned were none other than Fu Chen from Dragon Tail Mountain. A total of seven Great Servants would be coming, and all of them had reached the God Master level!
"We're not in a good situation, so they will definitely attack us. Moreover, they will be led by the Ascetic Monks of the Divine Universe. Can we do this? Let some of our people stay in Xuan Ge Divine Capital to attract the attention of the Divine Universe's army, while our main force of Gods can abandon Xuan Ge Divine Capital and head straight to Divine Universe City to eliminate Hua Chou? "Linghu Ling suggested.
