Zhou Tian City.
After nearly a month, Zhou Tian City could be said to be suffering. Anyone who dared to enter or sneak out of Zhou Tian City was either beaten back or beaten back.
They were either beaten back or thrown back by the Vermilion Bird. Although the Vermilion Bird said that she would destroy the Dutian Clan, she did not do so. The only person she wanted to kill was Dutian Yunhou.
"Is that crazy woman still outside?" Dou Tian Yunhou asked anxiously.
"Reporting to Patriarch, she hasn't left yet." The elder said with a bitter face, "Why don't you ask the Patriarch for help? If this continues, the resources in the city won't be enough. There are tens of millions of people here who need to eat and drink!"
"Is there any news from the people who went to Imperial Dragon City?" Dou Tian Yunhou avoided the topic.
He naturally had to suppress the news of the ancient city. If outsiders knew that the Patriarch of the Dutian Clan was gone, then the foundation of the Dutian Clan would be gone.
At that time, the Dutian Clan would be in danger. Not only would the Three Sects and Seven Schools come for a share, but even the Four Great Aristocratic Families would come.
"His Majesty hasn't responded yet!"
The elder said, "It's also possible that our messengers were long anticipated by the Vermilion Bird and killed. After all, we can't enter or leave. Our people have sent shuttles out several times, but they were all destroyed by the Vermilion Bird!"
"Damn bitch!" Dou Tian Yunhou cursed, "What is she trying to do?"
"Patriarch, the most important thing now is not to wait for His Majesty's decree, but … but to ask the Patriarch to calm this matter. There are tens of millions of people in the city, and they don't have enough to eat or use. Most importantly, the clan's disciples are lacking cultivation resources, and their cultivation has begun to regress. If this continues, I'm afraid there will be a big change.
If that happens … "The elders were nervous. A city with tens of millions of people needed to eat, drink, and defecate. Most importantly, the clan's disciples needed to cultivate.
Furthermore, the Dutian Clan's territory was close to ten thousand miles, and there were countless city-states of various sizes. If these city-states lost news of the Dutian Clan, they would definitely fall into chaos.
This was the foundation of the Dutian Clan for thousands of years. Since the founding of their ancestors, they had never encountered such a huge change.
Without these foundations, even if the Dutian Clan was a titled clan, it would only exist in name. Who in this world would care about the Dutian Clan?
Dou Tian Yunhou naturally understood all of this, but he was very clear that he couldn't invite the Ancestor, because the Ancestor had already been killed.
The only thing he could do now was to wait for the Human Emperor's decree. Even if he ordered Zhu Que to return to the Rosefinch Army, the Dutian Clan's crisis would be temporarily resolved.
After all, they definitely wouldn't be able to win if they left the city. With Zhu Que's warblade, Zhu Que's status among the magnates was second only to the commanders of the other three human garrison legions.
"B * tch, that damned b * tch!" Dou Tian Yunhou cursed. "Follow me out of the city. I want to see what this b * tch wants!"
The elders looked at each other, but they didn't expect that the Dutian Clan's Ancestor had already been killed. No one thought in that direction at all.
More people thought that the Ancestor didn't appear because he was in seclusion to break through and couldn't be disturbed.
"Zhu Que, what are you trying to do?!" Dou Tian Yunhou led everyone out of the city.
"You're not hiding in the city anymore? Are you being a coward?" Zhu Que, who was sitting cross-legged outside the city, opened her eyes. "You're asking me what I'm trying to do? Why don't you ask yourself what you've done?"
"Is there no way to settle this matter? Is that little b * stard that important to you? So important that you don't even care about the Rosefinch Army and want to make a mortal enemy of the Dutian Clan. Don't forget, there are also members of the Dutian Clan in your Rosefinch Army! "
Dou Tian Yunhou said. "If you're willing to leave now, the Dutian Clan is willing to take on a portion of the Rosefinch Army's military needs in the future. Moreover … we'll send our core members to serve in the Rosefinch Army!"
"Patriarch, you …" The elders were all in disbelief.
The five clans all had their own private armies, and the core members were naturally used to lead them. Not to mention going to the battlefield, even if the Human Emperor's Palace wanted to dispatch them, they would reject it and use some ordinary branch family members to make up the numbers.
"Shut up!" Dou Tian Yunhou interrupted them. "Think about it. This is good for the Rosefinch Army. If you're willing, we can even sign an alliance agreement and submit it to the Human Emperor in black and white!"
"What a tempting offer. I'm really tempted."
Zhu Que smiled. "It's a pity. Compared to the little b * stard in your eyes, this is nothing. Didn't you just ask me how important he is to me? Then I'll tell you now. In my life, there are only two people I care about. One is my teacher, and the other is him! "
The elders were shocked and even found it laughable. Zhu Que's words clearly meant that she had fallen in love with the young man who was a few decades older than her.
After all, other than this, they couldn't think of any other relationship between Zhu Que and Ye Tianze. And this was the great Zhu Que!
Her status was the same as the Lord of the Human Emperor's Palace in the Southern Region. The difference between her and Ye Tianze was like heaven and earth.
"And you … all of you kidnapped him with your own hands. You kidnapped him from my hands. Why didn't you think that this day would come?" Vermilion Bird smiled and said, "Old man, let me tell you, in this world, not everything can be exchanged with benefits. Especially with me, absolutely not!"
The elders were stunned. Dou Tian Yunhou's face was ashen. He cursed, "You b * tch, you shameless b * tch. You are Zhu Que in the Southern Region, the Commander-in-Chief of the Human Tribe's Garrison Army. Your status is so different from his. How can you disappoint the Human Emperor? How can you disappoint the Human Emperor? How can you disappoint the Human Tribe in the Southern Region? You …"
"Clang!"
Zhu Que raised the Blade of Zhu Que and slashed down. The terrifying Blade Qi fell down with flames all over the sky.
The light screen of Dou Tian City trembled. The elders of the Dutian Clan on the city wall all felt the pressure of the blade. They felt suffocated.
Dou Tian Yunhou's face was pale.
"Old man, in terms of the Human Tribe and the Human Emperor's expectations, you are the least qualified to judge me!" The Vermillion Bird coldly said, "If you really want to resolve this matter, then obediently come out and fight me fair and square. If you lose, then die under my blade. If I lose, then I am willing to be killed by you!"
"Zhu Que, you have gone too far. You will not end well if you do this!" The elders shouted angrily. "Once the Human Emperor's decree arrives, then …"
"I am afraid you won't be able to wait for the Human Emperor's decree!" Suddenly, a voice came from afar, followed by a shuttle flying over and stopping in the air above the Vermilion Bird.
Seeing the young man on the flying shuttle, Dou Tian Yunhou's pale face froze. Zhu Que was in disbelief.
"You … you … how can you …" Zhu Que was so excited that she did not know what to say.
