In just one and a half months, the Southern Region had been reduced to its current state. The army of hundreds of thousands had been reduced to less than fifty thousand. The former King of the Southern Region had died in the battle of the Sagely Mountain City. Three out of the six Settlement Chiefs had died, and the remaining three were severely injured. Of the seven cities, only one was left.
How could Shan Yu escape?
Where could she escape to?
"Go to the Flame Capital City. Even though the Great Xia Dynasty did not send any troops, you are still the King of the Great Xia Dynasty. The Great Xia Dynasty will not leave you in the lurch, right?"
"That's right, Your Majesty, please leave as soon as possible. We swear to kill a path of blood for Your Majesty!"
"Your Highness, please leave as soon as possible!"
The three Settlement Chiefs' hearts were bleeding when they saw Shan Yu's expression. However, after exchanging glances, they gritted their teeth and spoke again.
"The Great Xia Dynasty?" Shan Yu glanced at the three Settlement Chiefs, then at the Southern Region soldiers who were covered in blood. She clenched her fists tightly.
In fact, she had already sent a letter requesting reinforcements to the Flame Capital City a month ago. However, the Great Xia Dynasty had yet to send a single soldier to the capital.
Shan Yu knew that this was not because of the Great Xia Dynasty. The Great Xia Dynasty was also on the brink of collapse. How would they be able to send reinforcements to the Southern Region?
As for the royal bloodline that the three Settlement Chiefs mentioned …
Without the Southern Region, how would there be any royal bloodline?
"No, I will not leave!" Shan Yu shook her head.
"Your Highness, it will be too late if you don't leave now. The Demons will be here soon. When that time comes, the Southern Region will be finished!"
"Your Highness, please leave now. The Demons are still a mile away. With us protecting you, you will be able to fight your way out."
"Yes, Your Highness, please think of the Southern Region!"
How could the three Settlement Chiefs not understand Shan Yu's will? In the past year, under Shan Yu's governance, the Southern Region could be said to have experienced a rare peace and harvest.
After introducing the farming techniques of the Great Xia Dynasty, the people of the Southern Region finally had a stable harvest. They no longer had to wait for the hunt.
The people of the Southern Region also smiled …
This was what Shan Yu had been doing for the past year. She had opened the door to the Southern Region, accepted the advantages of the outside world, and accepted the culture and culture of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Unfortunately …
The Heavens did not go according to their wishes. A huge battle destroyed the hard work of the Southern Region over the past year. The main reason for this was a Monster called Lin Ji.
Half a month ago, Lin Ji arrived at the Southern Region.
Furthermore, he stood before the throne room of the Sagely Mountain City all by himself. At that moment, the Southern Region realized that there was such a person in this world who could fight against ten thousand people alone.
Of course, Lin Ji would not be able to massacre the entire Southern Region by herself. After all, there were too many soldiers of the Southern Region. Even if they stood in front of Lin Ji and allowed her to kill them one by one, it would take her at least a year and a half.
However, Lin Ji raised a condition.
Offerings. Moreover, they were top-notch offerings.
Shan Yu agreed because she had no other choice. The only thing she could do was to bring Lin Ji into the palace and order people to serve her day and night.
But that was how the nightmare unfolded.
Anyone who was sent to serve Lin Ji would be killed if there was a disagreement. Some of them even died at the door of Lin Ji's room before they could even see her.
In just three to five days, the palace was in a mess.
No one dared to serve Lin Ji anymore. However, if Lin Ji did not see anyone for 15 minutes, she would start a massacre in the palace. Under such circumstances, the palace was in a mess.
Shan Yu knew that Lin Ji did it on purpose.
However, she had no choice but to bear with it and send a distress signal to the Great Xia Dynasty. However, at this moment, news came from the Nan Ling Settlement which was near the Blood Shadow City of the Demon Race.
Both internal and external troubles.
Shan Yu was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
However, Lin Ji suggested that she should lead the Southern Region soldiers to defend against the Demon Race and forced Shan Yu to hand over the military authority of the Southern Region to her.
Shan Yu and the former King of the Southern Region could not agree to it.
However, Lin Ji was too powerful. She was so powerful that she could kill a Rebirth State powerful being with just a flick of her finger. How could the former King of the Southern Region fight against such a powerful being?
The outcome was obvious …
The former King of the Southern Region died in the palace. Lin Ji obtained the seal of the King of the Southern Region and sent a distress signal to the Nan Ling Settlement and the Iron Hill Settlement.
As such, the Sagely Mountain City was lost and the Nan Ling Settlement and the Iron Hill Settlement fell into the enemy's hands.
"Your Highness!"
"Your Highness, please make a decision quickly!"
The three Settlement Chiefs said anxiously as they looked at the silent Shan Yu.
"No, you don't have to say anymore. I will not leave. The Southern Region only has a King who dies in battle, not a King who runs away!" Shan Yu clenched her fists and said firmly.
The three Tribal Chiefs lowered their heads in silence. Then, they exchanged glances with one another and gritted their teeth.
"Your Highness, please forgive us for being rude!"
"What … what are you guys trying to do?! I will not leave, even if I die! "Shan Yu's expression changed when she saw the three Settlement Chiefs pouncing towards her.
However, it was too late. The three Settlement Chiefs were charging at her and they were too close to her. Shan Yu did not even have the time to summon her blood.
"No, let go of me. I am the King of the Southern Region! How dare you! Mmm mmm … "Shan Yu wanted to struggle, but her mouth was stuffed by a piece of animal skin.
"Your Highness, we have to send you away no matter what. Even if you don't agree, we have to do it. If you want us to die with you, you can struggle to attract the attention of the Demon soldiers!" The three Settlement Chiefs knelt down again after restraining Shan Yu.
Shan Yu's body froze at this moment. She looked at the three Settlement Chiefs who were kneeling in front of her. Then, she turned her head to the side and stopped resisting.
"Pass down my order. We have to defend for two hours no matter what. Then, we can open the city gates and surrender!"
"Yes!"
…
Thunderous Lion Settlement, North Gate.
"We did not discover any Demon soldiers!" A soft voice was heard.
"Alright, we will rush out quickly. We will make a detour to Qing Shan before heading towards the Great Xia Dynasty!" Another voice replied after a while.
"Yes!"
As the voice fell, the city gates opened slightly. A group of ten people dashed out of the city gates. Every single one of them was covered in a thick black animal skin.
Under the cover of the night, the group of ten people did not make much noise. Furthermore, the Silver Horned Wolves that they were riding on were extremely familiar with the mountain paths. They disappeared outside the city gates in a few leaps.
The mountain breeze blew past. The group of ten people were extremely fast. They turned, leaped and made a detour. After fifteen minutes, the group of ten people were a mile away from the Thunderous Lion Settlement.
"We have finally escaped."
"Not yet. As long as we have not left the Southern Region, anything can happen. Let's hurry up and try to reach Qing Shan before daybreak."
"That's right. Before we leave the Southern Region, anything can happen." At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out from the forest.
Then, a figure slowly walked out from the forest. Her figure was extremely enchanting. Her black hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall.
It was a lady.
Furthermore, it was a very young woman with a pair of demonic eyes and a faint smile that could steal one's soul from the corner of her mouth.
She was very beautiful.
However, the group of ten people stopped when they saw the lady. Everyone's face was filled with unconcealable fear.
"Why, we have already lost the battle, why are you still trying to kill us!" The leader of the group spoke furiously.
"Hehe, I thought you would first ask me why I'm here." The woman chuckled as her snow-white fingers carelessly brushed away the hair on her forehead.
"Bring the King and leave!"
"Leave? Where do you want to go? " The lady, Lin Ji, blinked her eyes and pointed to the surroundings. "Is it the East or the West, or should I say the South or the North? Oh … I forgot to mention, you have been surrounded and it seems that you can't go anywhere. "
As Lin Ji spoke, countless torches appeared in the surroundings. Under the illumination of the torches, thousands of Demon soldiers charged out from the forest.
The group of ten people turned extremely pale at this moment.
They naturally knew how powerful Lin Ji was. In fact, when Lin Ji appeared, they knew that their chances of escaping were less than ten percent.
However, they had miscalculated …
Lin Ji did not even give them a ten percent chance.
How could they escape from the encirclement of thousands of Demon soldiers? How could they escape?
"Lin Ji, we will fight to the death with you!" The three Tribal Chiefs all stood up at this moment. Each of them had bulging muscles on their bodies. Two of the Tribal Chiefs even had black fur on their backs, making them look like two giant bears.
"Hahaha … fight? How are you going to fight? The Young Empress is indeed smart to know that you will definitely escape. Once I take Shan Yu's head, the Thunderous Lion Settlement will be destroyed without any casualties! " Lin Ji laughed happily and wantonly. Then, she moved her finger and said, "Kill them all!"
"Kill!" An earth-shattering sound was heard. Then, countless arrows with cold glints fell like raindrops towards the ten-man team.
"Ah …"
"Ah!!"
Cries of agony were heard. A few of the Southern Region soldiers were hit by the arrows. However, none of them fell.
"Lin Ji!" The three Settlement Chiefs also moved at this moment and charged towards Lin Ji at lightning speed.
On the other hand, Lin Ji smiled as she looked at the three Settlement Chiefs. The smile on her face was as demonic as a venomous snake.
"I have no interest in wasting my time with you bunch of trash." As soon as Lin Ji finished her sentence, she disappeared from the spot and appeared in the middle of the team of ten in a blink of an eye.
Boom! There was a loud explosion.
The powerful airwave caused everyone in the group to fly back. The knife-like aura wreaked havoc in the air and made a sharp sound.
"Yo, is the King tied up? Why did you do that? " Lin Ji ignored the Southern Region soldiers and held Shan Yu, who was wrapped in a black beast skin, with one hand. Then, she stuck out her tongue and licked the corner of her mouth.
"Mmm mmm …" Shan Yu wanted to speak but her mouth was sealed by the beast skin and her hands were tied up. She could not open her mouth or move at all.
"If you knew this would happen, why did you do it? If you agreed to let me lead the Southern Region soldiers, I might be able to help you defend against the invasion of the Demon soldiers, don't you think so? "
"Mmm mmm!"
"Don't be anxious, let me finish first. You must be calm and patient. You are already the King's woman, why are you so anxious?" Lin Ji shook her head as she looked at Shan Yu's red face. Then, she continued, "Look, you forced me to surrender to the Demon Race. The Southern Region is finished now, right? Do you regret it? "
"Mmm …" Shan Yu clenched her fists and her eyes were about to spit fire. Her eyes slowly turned pitch black as though there were black flames burning in them.
"Hahaha, do you want to say something? Do you want to say something before you die? What a pity, I don't want you to speak. How is it, are you angry? Are you dying with everlasting regrets? " Lin Ji continued to laugh until her body swayed. "I like to see you being unable to speak even though you want to speak."
"Your Highness!"
"Your Highness, we have let you down!"
"…"
Tears welled up in the eyes of the three Settlement Chiefs. They were extremely sorrowful as they looked at Shan Yu, who was being held by Lin Ji with one hand. All of them wanted to charge forward.
However, the more anxious they were, the more arrows they were hit by.
"Kill!" Thousands of Demon soldiers let out a loud roar and surrounded the three Settlement Chiefs. Their sharp swords slashed at the bodies of the three Settlement Chiefs.
Shan Yu's eyes widened as she looked at the three Settlement Chiefs who were surrounded by the Demon soldiers. Tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes.
"You are crying? Hmm … As a weakling, it is indeed your right to cry. I really cannot stop you. Why don't you beg me and kowtow to me three times. Perhaps, I will allow you to say your last words to them. How about that? Do you want to beg me? " As Lin Ji spoke, she lifted Shan Yu up and smashed her onto the ground, causing rocks to fly in all directions.
"Oh? You are really kneeling down and begging me? " Lin Ji covered her mouth and laughed hysterically as she looked at Shan Yu who was kneeling on the ground. "However, I will not agree to it. I will not agree to it. How about it? Do you hate me? Do you hate me a lot? Come on, if you hate me, then come and hit me. Hit me hard, hit my face, my beautiful face, hit it hard! "
Bam! A dull sound was heard.
