At this moment, Lin Yun was on the verge of collapsing and was on the verge of fainting.
Seeing the Southern Summer King's persevering appearance, if Lin Yun didn't agree, he would probably kneel down.
Helpless, Lin Yun could only agree, "Okay, I agree."
"You really agree?" The Southern Summer King's face lit up as he stood up from the ground.
Lin Yun looked at the weeping Nangong Yan, then nodded and said, "Before I leave the Southern Summer, I will definitely take good care of the Princess and unify the North and the South."
The Southern Summer King nodded in satisfaction and immediately handed the imperial order to Lin Yun. Then, he turned to Murong Tuohai and said, "Grand Scholar, please be my witness and pass on this King's last oral order."
Murong Tuohai was already in tears. "Your Majesty!"
The Southern Summer King said solemnly, "This King is incompetent and has let down my ancestors. Now that the Southern Summer Kingdom is facing a crisis, this King can only face it with my own body."
"However, the kingdom cannot be without a ruler. Yan 'er cannot be of great use and will not be able to turn the tide and support the southern building."
"Lin Yun will be in charge of the Southern Summer Kingdom's politics. He will tie the knot with the Southern Summer Princess and be conferred the title of the Southern Summer Prince Consort. The civil and military officials of the Southern Summer Kingdom must listen to the Prince Consort's orders. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without exception! "
Lin Yun cupped his hands respectfully toward the Southern Summer King.
The Southern Summer King held Lin Yun's hand and said, "I will entrust my most beloved Yan 'er to you from now on."
Lin Yun nodded and then heavily closed his eyes. His consciousness began to blur.
Only then did the Southern Summer King turn around and warn Nangong Yan, "Yan 'er, Lin Yun is now your husband. He is extremely important to the future of the Southern Summer. No matter what, you must bring him back safely. "
"Royal Father, Yan 'er can't bear to part with you," Nangong Yan said with a sobbing tone. After speaking, she threw herself into the Southern Summer King's embrace.
The Southern Summer King revealed a gentle smile. He really wished that time could stop at this moment. How he wished that Nangong Yan could stay in his arms like this, even if it was just for a moment longer.
However, he knew that to him, this was an extremely extravagant luxury, because he had no time to waste, because his enemies would soon catch up to him.
The Southern Summer King endured the pain as he pushed Nangong Yan away and ordered Nangong Yan, "Alright, now quickly bring Lin Yun away. This is my royal father's final order!"
Nangong Yan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and carried the unconscious Lin Yun on her back. After taking one last look at the Southern Summer King, she endured the pain in her heart, turned around, and ran away.
"Your Majesty …" Murong Tuohai bitterly looked at the Southern Summer King. He discovered that the Southern Summer King's back was somewhat sorrowful, like the setting sun that was about to set. It was exceptionally tragic and tragic.
At this moment, more than ten figures appeared in the distance and were rapidly approaching.
A wave of sharp killing intent swept over from that direction like a landslide and a tsunami.
"Go!" The Southern Summer King coldly spat out.
Murong Tuohai clenched his teeth, turned around, and rushed toward the fort.
The Southern Summer King turned his head and looked at the rapidly approaching figures, and his eyes flashed with a trace of determination.
In the next instant, his body automatically ignited, forming a surging red flame. It was as though he had instantly turned into a man of fire.
This was the Nangong family's forbidden technique — the "Burning Body Technique."
This technique used the burning of one's body to obtain a large amount of power for a short period of time. When one's body was completely burned, the user of this technique would also perish, and their ashes would scatter and scatter.
Thus, this was a technique that would perish together with the enemy, and it was classified by the Nangong family as a forbidden technique that wouldn't be used unless one died.
At this moment, the Southern Summer King had already made up his mind. Since he couldn't escape death, then he might as well turn into a candle and burn himself to illuminate the Southern Summer, bringing a ray of hope to the Southern Summer family.
The ten or so people that were approaching the Southern Summer King seemed to have noticed the abnormality of the Southern Summer King, and they suddenly stopped twenty meters away from the Southern Summer King.
The auras of these ten or so people weren't weak, and almost all of them had reached the Silver Deputy General rank. Their leader was Xue Rengui.
However, when they saw the Southern Summer King, their expressions became extremely grave.
Xue Rengui had fought with the experts of the Nangong family many times, and this wasn't the first time he had seen the Nangong family's "Burning Body Technique." Thus, he was very clear about the danger that the Southern Summer King was in.
However, this kind of power was only temporary, because the Southern Summer King's body would be completely burned in the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn. At that time, he would perish without being attacked, so there was no need to fight him head-on.
However, the problem was that if they didn't get rid of the Southern Summer King first, they wouldn't be able to continue chasing after Lin Yun.
"All of you, attack together!" Xue Rengui made a prompt decision, and decided to throw these Deputy Generals out as cannon fodder, using them to stall the Southern Summer King, and buying time for himself to chase after Lin Yun.
The few Deputy Generals didn't dare to disobey, and they immediately used their energy to condense their martial souls, and charged towards the burning Southern Summer King.
When they charged towards the Southern Summer King, the Southern Summer King also turned into a ball of fire, and with a long trail of fire, he charged towards them like a burning meteorite.
Meanwhile, Xue Rengui advanced at full speed, and went around the Southern Summer King from the side, and chased after Lin Yun.
"Don't even think about it!" The Southern Summer King sent one of the Deputy Generals flying with a slap, and after dodging the attacks of the other Deputy Generals, he turned around and chased after Xue Rengui.
Under this burning state, the Southern Summer King's speed increased by several times, and he broke through the sound barrier in an instant. He was so fast that Xue Rengui couldn't run away at all.
Xue Rengui had only run a few dozen meters when the burning Southern Summer King appeared in front of him in a flash, and blocked his path: "With me here, don't even think about succeeding!"
… …
At the same time, in the frontline stronghold.
Even after the mighty aura of the Primordial Demon had disappeared for a long time, that ancient aura still affected the Northern Yan Army, causing the chaotic Northern Yan Army to be unable to restore order and continue attacking for a long time. This bought a lot of time for the Southern Summer Army.
Nangong Martyr stood on the command platform, both his hands holding onto his treasured sword, and his eyes gazed at the tragic battlefield.
Messengers continuously ran over from all directions, and reported to Nangong Martyr about the situation of the stronghold's defenses.
According to the messengers' reports, Nangong Martyr mobilized his troops, and commanded the entire battlefield in an orderly manner.
Nangong Martyr was a veteran general who had experienced hundreds of battles, and he had extremely precise control over the battlefield. Under his wise command, the Northern Yan Army was unable to attack the stronghold.
In addition, the chaos caused by Lin Yun awakening his main martial soul had seriously disrupted the order of the Northern Yan Army.
Although the Northern Yan Army was still ferocious, in reality, they were gradually declining. Not long after, their morale would plummet, and then they would retreat like the tide.
The Northern Yan Army was the attacking side, and the Southern Summer Army was the defending side. Using stillness to stop, using slowness to control urgency, this was the key to victory for the Southern Summer Army.
