The news of the Zhao Kingdom being destroyed by the Assassination Guild spread like a plague. In just a few days, it had spread to all the neighboring countries.
Even the Southern Summer King Kingdom, which was thousands of miles away, received the news.
In a short period of time, all the citizens of the Southern Summer King Kingdom were discussing this matter. It caused quite a commotion, causing people to panic.
The Zhao Kingdom was one of the Ten Great Kingdoms in the Southeast region of the Thousand Kingdoms Territory. Although its military power could not compare to the Southern Summer King Kingdom, it was still a Rank 2 Kingdom.
The number of King Wu experts in a Rank 2 Kingdom would not be less than two digits, and the number of troops would be in the hundreds of thousands.
A kingdom with such a huge military power was destroyed in a single night.
What was even more inconceivable was that there were only four people who destroyed the kingdom!
This was already sufficient to show just how formidable the individual strength of the Assassination Guild members were!
On the third day after the news of the Zhao Kingdom's destruction reached the Southern Summer Kingdom, the new ruler, Hana Mio, requested to see Lin Yun and gave Lin Yun a special invitation.
This special invitation was sent by the king of the Great Qin Kingdom, which was the head of the Ten Great Kingdoms in the Southeast region of the Thousand Kingdoms Territory.
The Thousand Kingdoms Territory was a vast area that spanned hundreds of thousands of miles and had close to a thousand countries. It included the Ten Great Rank 3 Kingdoms, over a hundred Rank 2 Kingdoms, and hundreds of Rank 1 Kingdoms.
The Thousand Kingdoms Territory could be divided into nine regions: East, West, South, North, Southeast, Northeast, Southwest, Northwest, and Central.
The Southeast region where the Southern Summer Kingdom was located had ten Great Kingdoms and dozens of small countries.
These ten Great Kingdoms included the Southern Summer King Kingdom, Northern Yan Kingdom, Zhao Kingdom, Great Qin Kingdom, Great Zhou Kingdom, East Sea Kingdom, Nanchang Kingdom, Chu Kingdom, Wei Kingdom, and Jin Kingdom.
The Northern Yan Kingdom had become a subsidiary of the Assassination Guild. The Zhao Kingdom was destroyed by the Assassination Guild, leaving only the Eight Great Kingdoms in the Southeast region.
As the saying goes, if the lips are gone, the teeth are cold. The destruction of the Zhao Kingdom was a wake-up call for all the countries in the Southeast region.
The Great Qin Kingdom finally realized how terrifying the Assassination Guild was, so it planned to ally with the remaining eight Royal Kingdoms to resist the Assassination Guild together.
Great Qin's purpose in sending out this invitation was to have the Kings of the eight Royal Kingdoms come to Great Qin to discuss the matter of the alliance.
Lin Yun naturally wouldn't reject an alliance like this. Because of the current situation in Southern Summer, they needed many allies to fight against the Assassination Society.
Since the Assassination Guild could destroy the Zhao Kingdom, they could also destroy the Southern Summer King Kingdom, as well as any other kingdom in the Southeast.
Any kingdom in the southeast region was insignificant before the assassination meeting. Even the flourishing Great Qin Kingdom in the southeast region was the same.
However, if all the kingdoms in the Southeast were to unite, the situation would be completely different. Even if it wasn't enough to fight against the Assassination Guild, it would at least be troublesome for the Assassination Guild.
…
The next morning.
Lin Yun brought the Country Guarding Lord, Zhang Wei, and a few loyal Deputies to the Great Qin Kingdom.
The Great Qin Kingdom was thousands of miles away from the Southern Summer Kingdom, so it would take a few days and nights to travel by horse.
However, Lin Yun was now the Southern Summer King, so he naturally wouldn't travel by horse. Instead, he rode on the Southern Summer King's Class 4 Demon Beast, the Berserk Winged Dragon.
The Berserk Winged Dragon was more than ten meters long, and its wingspan was also more than ten meters. Not only did it carry a lot of weight, but it could also fly at subsonic speeds. It would only take half a day to reach the Great Qin Kingdom from the Southern Summer Kingdom.
However, the Berserk Winged Dragon was a low-tier Class 4 Demon Beast, and its strength was equivalent to the human Class 3 King Wu.
With Lin Yun's current cultivation, it was impossible for him to control the demonic beast. However, the demonic dragon bloodline in Lin Yun's body could suppress the demonic beast.
When the Berserk Winged Dragon saw Lin Yun, it was like a mouse that had seen a cat. It lay on the ground in fear, trembling, and didn't even dare to raise its head.
Lin Yun stepped on the Berserk Winged Dragon's head and coldly ordered, "Raise your head."
After hearing Lin Yun's words, the Berserk Winged Dragon obediently raised its head.
The Deputy Generals didn't dare to stand on the Berserk Winged Dragon's back, but after seeing how thoroughly Lin Yun had tamed the Berserk Winged Dragon, they all stood on it with relief.
After the Deputy Generals, the Country Protector Emperor, and Zhang Wei all stood on the Berserk Winged Dragon's back, Lin Yun gave the Berserk Winged Dragon an order.
"Let's go."
After hearing Lin Yun's order, the Berserk Winged Dragon spread its wings and quickly rose into the sky, carrying the few people into the blue sky.
The Berserk Winged Dragon flew at subsonic speeds without any obstructions, and they arrived at the Great Qin Kingdom at noon.
The Great Qin King didn't forget his etiquette, and he had already sent a special envoy to wait for Lin Yun at the landing site.
When they saw the Berserk Winged Dragon descend, the Great Qin Kingdom's special envoy and various officials all respectfully came up to receive them.
Under the guidance of the Great Qin Kingdom's special envoy, Lin Yun and the others quickly arrived at the Great Qin Palace.
Within the Great Qin Palace's main hall, a luxurious banquet had already been prepared.
An elder in his fifties, wearing a dragon robe and an imperial crown, sat on the nine jade steps in the main hall. His eyebrows were like swords, and his gaze was as sharp as an eagle's. He gave off the domineering aura of a King, and just by sitting there, he gave off an imposing aura.
Without a doubt, this domineering aura of a King was the Great Qin Kingdom's King.
At the center of the hall below the Great Qin Kingdom's King, there was a group of graceful women dancing and singing, and it was filled with exotic beauty.
On the two sides of the hall, there were seven luxurious and domineering wine tables. The tables were covered with exquisite beast furs, and there were all sorts of delicacies on them.
These seven luxurious and domineering wine tables were evidently prepared for the leaders of the seven Kingdoms.
When Lin Yun's group arrived, six of the seven tables were already occupied, and only the last table was empty. It was evident that Lin Yun was the last to arrive.
Under the guidance of the special envoy, Lin Yun sat at the last empty table. The Country Guarding Lord, Zhang Wei, and a few Vice-Generals all stood behind Lin Yun.
Seeing this scene, the kings of the other kingdoms all looked at Lin Yun with astonished expressions. They were clearly surprised that the Southern Summer King was so young, so young that it couldn't be described.
"The previous Southern Summer King died in the battle with Northern Yan a month ago. This is our Southern Summer's new King," the Country Guarding Lord immediately introduced Lin Yun to everyone.
Hearing the Country Guarding Lord's words, all of the Kings present revealed strange expressions.
"I was wondering why the Southern Summer King was so young. So the previous Southern Summer King already died?"
"I've long since heard about Northern Yan invading the Southern Summer, but I never thought that the situation would be so serious that even the King would not be able to protect him."
"Northern Yan has the support of the Assassination Guild, so it was already not easy for the Southern Summer to survive this disaster."
