Luo Yao and her brother, King Wu, returned to the study together. Perhaps only in front of her brother would Luo Yao relax a little.
She sighed and sat down, looking a little tired.
"Luo Yao, you've just returned from a long journey. You'd better rest first."
Luo Yao shook her head. She looked at King Wu in front of her and suddenly thought of that person.
Was there any hope for that person to survive?
"What's wrong, Luo Yao?" King Wu frowned and asked, "I saw that you were listless after returning from Baishi. Also … you seem to have changed a lot … What did you do?"
"Don't ask." Luo Yao interrupted King Wu. "Is there any news about the seven wargods?"
King Wu immediately replied, "It's said that six of the seven ancient wargods have been revived. Only our East Peak Ice God is missing."
"The East Peak Ice God won't be revived." Luo Yao said, "Where are the other six wargods now? What's the situation? "
"They're all in their own countries. They're all recovering their battle strength as soon as possible."
Luo Yao took a deep breath, stood up, and walked to the window. She looked at the capital outside the East Peak Palace.
"I didn't expect the demonic beast army to move so quickly! It won't be long before this peaceful world can only appear in memories. "
"Luo Yao, according to the Heavenly Master's prophecy … Is the heavenly tribulation about to begin?" King Wu asked.
"Looking at the current situation, it should be the training phase. After all, the Sovereign Demonic Beast hasn't fully matured yet. Only the Black Qilin has appeared among the Four Heavenly Kings."
King Wu looked at Luo Yao's back in surprise. After returning from Baishi, the Jade Empress seemed to have learned a lot about the prophecy.
"Luo Yao, do you think … the Sovereign Demonic Beast … Didn't it fall long ago? Could it have been revived? Also, have you seen the Black Qilin? "
"Yes, it's revived!" Luo Yao turned to King Wu and said, "I've seen the Black Qilin too. I believe the Four Heavenly Kings will appear soon. We still have time now. Wait for the national order to be passed down. We need to open the national treasury and raise everyone's strength. All the major cities need strong command to protect the cities! "
"This tribulation is a matter of life and death. You must lend me a hand!"
King Wu placed a hand on his chest and bowed slightly. "Your subject will do his best!"
Luo Yao nodded, her eyes deep and profound. "Raise an army for a thousand days to use it in a single moment! Those members of the royal family should stop living like princes and send them to the frontlines! All experts, move out! "
"Also, protect the natives as much as possible! If I find out who killed the aborigines, I will punish them according to military law! "
"This … Jade Emperor … Isn't this request a bit too much? Those people are just insignificant existences …" King Wu asked in confusion.
Although not all cultivators were bloodthirsty and indiscriminate, the order to protect the natives was extremely rare in the entire Fifth Heaven. This was also not the style of the previous Jade Emperor.
Luo Yao didn't want to explain further. "Try your best to move the scattered natives into the defense arrays of the major cities. Go, arrange these things. "
After she finished speaking, Luo Yao turned around and didn't want to say anything else.
"Yes, Your Majesty will do it right away!"
The sound of the door closing came from behind her. After Luo Yao noticed it, her sharp gaze instantly became unusually tired.
It wasn't a physical exhaustion, but a mental exhaustion.
"Solipsistic, I should have stayed to look for you, but I … Are you dead or alive!" Luo Yao's beautiful face was filled with tears.
In this chaotic world, love became insignificant. Moreover, she was the Jade Emperor of East Mountain. The thousands of years of foundation of East Mountain and the lives of hundreds of millions of people were in her hands!
But who knew how much pain her heart was now!
King Wu also had a swift and decisive personality. After coming out of the Jade Emperor's study, he immediately rushed to the Ministry of War to meet with the generals.
The whole country issued an emergency war order, opened the national treasury, allocated resources, increased the border guards, deployed the defense line, contacted the foreign officials, and cleared the territory of demonic beasts, etc.
Within two days, the East Mountain had undergone earth-shattering changes.
The royal family members rushed to the frontlines. A large number of guards marched between the cities. The major cities opened recruitment centers and recruited almost all the cultivators into the army!
At the same time, the East Mountain was not the only country that was attacked by demonic beasts. The White Lion Country, the four countries of the Wasteland, the Penglai Country, the Youmo Country, and the Bu Zhou Country all took action one after another.
In the whole Fifth Heaven, before the Heavenly Tribulation descended, the whole world was already in war.
… … …
During these few days of hurrying, Lu Chen suddenly realized that there were many more people around him. And the group was getting bigger and bigger. In the end, there were thousands of people …
These people were the aboriginals. For some reason, a large number of the aboriginals in the White Lion Country were migrating to the East Mountain.
Lu Chen was originally walking alone, but suddenly he became one of the aboriginals.
Anyway, he was wearing the Lonely Shadow Fishing attire that was characteristic of the working people. One of his arms was broken, and he was carrying a baby on his back. The strap covered his badge, so no one treated him as an outsider …
In front of him, an old man was pushing a wheelbarrow with his belongings. There was also a girl and an old woman on the wheelbarrow. They were hurrying along.
The group was moving very fast. It was as if everyone was rushing to the East Mountain.
There were a few young people who organized everyone to walk together, but they could not see so many people. The old man's foot slipped, and the wheelbarrow was about to overturn.
Lu Chen hurriedly stepped forward and supported the wheelbarrow.
The old man glanced at Lu Chen. With such a simple outfit, he looked very amiable. He smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you, big brother. I'm old and my legs are not very nimble."
Lu Chen smiled slightly. "Old man, the mountain road is difficult to walk on. I'll help you."
After half a day of traveling, the sky was already dark. Someone in front called for everyone to stop and rest.
"Everyone, stop. We'll spend the night here. We're very close to the border now. Be careful of demonic beasts. Don't sleep too soundly."
Lu Chen wondered if he should go alone.
At this time, a small hand pulled Lu Chen's clothes. "Big brother, my grandparents want you to come over and eat with us."
Lu Chen turned around and saw the old couple who helped him during the day.
After thinking for a while, Lu Chen decided to go with them. At least he could sleep well in the middle of the night.
As soon as he came over, the old man handed over a hot steamed bun. The little girl's eyes widened and she swallowed her saliva.
"Young man, I don't have anything good here. Just eat this." The old man said enthusiastically.
Lu Chen smiled and took the steamed bun. He drank it with the spring water.
"Old man, what are you going to do?" Lu Chen asked while feeding the little beast god water.
"Ah? Don't you know? The world is going to be in chaos. The East Mountain has issued an order. They will protect the natives! " The old man was so excited that tears almost filled his eyes. "The Jade Emperor is wise. No one has ever cared about our life and death …" The old man was so excited that he could not speak.
Lu Chen frowned.
Jade Emperor? Who is that? But he seemed to be a good person.
