The geniuses that came out of the Sorcerer Goddess Pagoda were highly regarded by the higher-ups of the Alliance.
This was especially so for Prince Namgong, Shangguan Xiayan, and Hana Mio, who had passed the third level. In the eyes of the higher-ups of the Alliance, they were the future of the Alliance.
The unexpected death of Lin Yun had already dealt a serious blow to the Alliance. Therefore, the higher-ups of the Alliance could not let anything happen to the three of them.
In order to ensure the safety of the three geniuses, the higher-ups of the Alliance unanimously decided to let them stay far away from the battlefield and cultivate in the Southern Summer King Palace.
The three geniuses had recently made rapid breakthroughs, causing their cultivation bases to be unstable. It just so happened that they needed to consolidate their cultivation bases. Therefore, they obeyed the arrangements of the Alliance and stayed in the Southern Summer King Palace to cultivate in seclusion.
Prince Namgong was worthy of being the leader of the three geniuses. In just a few days, he managed to consolidate his cultivation base. When he came out of seclusion, Shangguan Xiayan and Hana Mio were still cultivating in seclusion.
Prince Namgong wanted to test his strength, but he could not find a decent opponent. He could only go to the square of Wuan Gate alone and use the destruction caused by the Thunder Qilin to judge his current strength.
Rumble!
Accompanied by a deafening explosion, the raging thunder energy instantly exploded, forming a ball of thunder light with a diameter of 30 meters, crushing everything it touched into powder.
The originally pitch-black night sky was illuminated by the resplendent lightning as if it was daytime.
Looking at the 30 meters pit on the ground, Prince Namgong was still expressionless. However, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
Not enough, far from enough!
He was far from satisfied with his own strength.
This was because he knew that compared to Lin Yun, he was still too far away. They were not even on the same level.
Therefore, he was still not satisfied and wanted to continue to become stronger.
Just as Prince Namgong was about to use the Thunder Qilin again, he suddenly felt a strong aura out of nowhere.
"Who?!" Prince Namgong hastily turned his head and saw an old man with white hair and beard standing at the corner of the Wuan Gate with his hands clasped behind his back.
The old man didn't say anything. He just stood quietly under the moonlight, staring at Prince Namgong with a burning gaze. On the old man's forehead, there was a Qilin totem.
Prince Nangong's heart was fiercely startled because he did not sense when the old man had appeared. It was as if he had suddenly appeared out of thin air.
…
Nangong Yan, Lin Ying, Yun Ruoxi, and Zhang Wei had been guarding outside the Sorcerer God's pagoda for more than ten days when they suddenly received the news that the Assassins Association had launched a general attack on the allied forces.
As the descendant of the Southern Summer King, Nangong Yan was the representative of the Southern Summer when Lin Yun wasn't around.
Therefore, during this critical period, she had to return to the Southern Summer to preside over the overall situation. She could only give up waiting for Lin Yun's return and rush back to the Southern Summer in advance.
Zhang Wei and Yun Ruoxi were both officials of the Southern Summer. During this critical period, they naturally had to return to protect the Southern Summer.
After the three of them left, only Lin Ying was left. He waited alone in front of the Sorcerer God's pagoda, quietly waiting for Lin Yun's return.
Nangong Yan had just rushed back to the Southern Summer. Before she could take a breather, she immediately heard another piece of bad news.
The number one genius of the Southern Summer, Prince Namgong, had mysteriously disappeared from the palace.
According to the investigation, the Alliance found a scorched pit with a diameter of 30 meters on the square of the Wuan Gate. This was left by Prince Namgong's strongest attack.
This scorched pit was enough to prove that Prince Namgong had fought with someone. It was that person who had taken Prince Namgong away.
When the results of this matter came out, it completely shocked the entire Alliance.
It must be known that the current Southern Summer King's Palace had gathered the top combat power of the Southeast region. Not only were there the Marshals and Generals of the various countries, but there were also Bai Hanbing and Shi Zhenxiang, two Level Nine King Wu Realm experts.
Moreover, Prince Namgong himself was also a King Wu Realm expert.
What kind of existence could actually quietly abduct Prince Namgong under the eyes of so many experts?
The mysterious disappearance of Prince Namgong caused the higher-ups of the Alliance to fall into a state of panic.
This was because ever since Prince Namgong, Shanghai Xiayan, and Hana Mio had come out of the Sorcerer God's Pagoda, the higher-ups of the Alliance had always paid attention to them.
It was not an exaggeration to say that the protection the three of them received was not inferior to that of the various Kings.
If the enemy could quietly abduct Prince Namgong under the eyes of so many experts, then they could similarly abduct the various Kings without a sound.
If they could even abduct without a sound, then there was no need to talk about assassinating them.
If Prince Namgong's disappearance was really the doing of the enemy, then no matter how many experts there were, the Kings would not be safe.
However, there were still many doubts about the matter of Prince Namgong.
There were so many geniuses in the Alliance, so why did the enemy only abduct Prince Namgong? What was the purpose of abducting Prince Namgong?
If the enemy could abduct Prince Namgong without a sound, then why didn't they assassinate the various Kings? They could not understand.
No matter how hard the higher-ups of the Alliance thought, they could not understand. They did not even dare to confirm that Prince Namgong was really abducted by the enemy.
…
While the higher-ups of the Alliance were confused about the disappearance of Prince Namgong, the Northern Yan Kingdom was preparing for the upcoming battle.
The allied troops around the Northern Yan Kingdom all gathered at the Northern Yan Kingdom.
As for the allied troops that were far away from the Northern Yan Kingdom, they all moved back to the Southern Summer to prepare for the final battle.
In just two to three days, there were more than 500,000 soldiers and seven to eight generals who gathered at the Northern Yan Kingdom.
The Northern Yan Kingdom itself had 500,000 soldiers stationed there. In addition to the troops that gathered from various places, there were a million soldiers gathered in a short period of time.
There were at least 20 experts who were above the King Wu Realm. Among them were Nangong, Ying Zheng, Shangguan Bai Qi, Hua Mulan, Su Lie, Qin Feng, who escaped from the Northern Blue County, and many generals from other Kingdoms.
The highest general guarding the Northern Yan Kingdom was naturally the Country Guardian King of the Southern Summer.
Such a lineup was equivalent to the combined forces of at least two Kingdoms. However, in front of the super army that was about to arrive, it was still not enough.
Every soldier guarding the Northern Yan Kingdom knew very well that it was impossible for them to win this battle. Their goal was only to temporarily stop the enemy's attack and buy more time for the Alliance to prepare for the battle.
Just as a white glow appeared in the eastern sky, the soldiers stationed at the Northern Yan Kingdom were already in position.
The Country Guardian King and the other generals also stood quietly on the city wall, looking at the horizon far away. Their faces were cold and determined, and they were all on high alert, ready to go.
About an hour later, a large black mass appeared on the horizon far away, sweeping towards the capital of the Northern Yan Kingdom like a tidal wave.
