But in the next moment, the smile on Fang Yun's face disappeared.
Fang Yun had been working on the Sanguine Platform all this time, so he had temporarily sealed his seal. Now that he had opened it, he received thousands of urgent letters.
Jingguo would send an urgent letter every hour.
Many of his good friends had also sent him at least one urgent letter.
Fang Yun quickly read through all the letters.
Smoke rose from the north of Jingguo.
At first, the urgent letters only said one thing. The grassland barbarians had suddenly mobilized their army and surrounded North Wei City.
Later on, the urgent letters said that the barbarians had used a treasure to ignite heavenly flames and burn North Wei City, turning thousands of miles of land red. Not only were the water barbarians unable to fight, but they had also become live targets. The Eastern Sea Dragon Palace hurriedly mobilized their forces, but the barbarian treasure was a rare Half-saint treasure. It was refined by a demon Half-saint using a sun and the corpse of a Half-saint from the Fire Sparrow Race. North Wei City was deep in the land and not in the sea. Unless the Dragon Emperor descended with a dragon treasure, there was no way to deal with it.
Later on, the Eastern Sea water barbarians retreated.
Without the protection of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace, North Wei City gradually showed signs of defeat.
Three days ago, Zhang Poyue was ambushed and captured by six barbarian kings.
North Wei City was defeated.
The barbarian chief rushed straight for Ning An City!
Jingguo used the power of the entire country and borrowed the strength of the Gong family to build three fortresses in six hours, barely blocking the barbarians' attack.
The barbarian army set up camp outside the three fortresses and hung Zhang Poyue on a pole.
Zhang Poyue cursed the barbarians and refused to surrender even after his tongue was cut off.
The imperial court had already sent many letters in various names. The Jingjun, the Empress Dowager, the cabinet, the ministers, and many others had all sent letters to Fang Yun, asking him to rush to the capital as soon as he saw the letters and reach the palace as soon as possible.
Fang Yun was burning with anxiety as countless thoughts flashed through his mind. The Barbarian Race's treasure was called the 'Burning Heaven Furnace', and it was created based on the Ancient Demon Race's supreme treasure. It had always been in the Demon Realm, but now it had suddenly appeared in the Barbarian Race. It was too unusual.
A thousand years ago, the Demon Realm had sent eight Half-saints to the Saint Origin World. After that, the Demon Realm no longer had the ability to send any Half-saints or Half-saints to the Saint Origin World. Currently, the Half-saints in the Saint Origin World were either the descendants of Half-saints or the genius Half-saints of the Demon Realm who had snuck into the Mortal World and became Half-saints.
Now, if the Demon Realm wanted to send a Half-saint treasure like the Heaven Burning Furnace to Saint Origin World, they would have to spend hundreds of years to teleport it from the Demon Realm to the Half-saint who could freely enter and leave Saint Origin World.
Currently, only the Human Race and the Water Race could freely enter and leave the Saint Origin World.
Fang Yun borrowed the power of the blood light to teleport to the Notre-Dame of Saint Origin World. The moment he landed, he used the literary boundary of Chen Sheng Family to teleport to the Chen Family in the capital.
After that, Fang Yun stepped on the clouds and flew to the Jingguo Imperial Palace.
Along the way, Fang Yun quickly replied to the letters and ordered all of his private soldiers to set off for Ning An City. At the same time, he also sent letters to many people to convey his orders.
Since five days ago, the Imperial Palace of Jingguo held a court meeting every day. The important members of various departments even received and received official documents on the spot. All the officials were very busy with the upcoming matters. They were also very noisy.
* Whoosh … *
Fang Yun descended from the sky with a sharp piercing sound and landed in front of the Imperial Palace's Throne Room. The guards of the Imperial Palace were shocked. When they saw that it was Fang Yun, the eunuch at the door hurriedly shouted, "His Highness Prince Ji has arrived!"
Everyone in the Throne Room looked at Fang Yun who was standing outside the door.
Fang Yun scanned everyone with a serious face. He said as he walked, "Greetings, everyone. Let's skip the formalities. I just received the news. Can anyone tell me what is going on?"
When the grown-up Jing Jun saw Fang Yun, his face lit up with joy, but he didn't say a word.
"Come, give Beloved Official Fang a seat. General Li, tell Beloved Official Fang the ins and outs of the matter. Everyone else, go about your business. "The Empress Dowager's voice came from behind Jing Jun.
"This general obeys."
Afterwards, General Li from the Grand Marshal's residence quickly reported to Fang Yun what had happened over the past few days. The Imperial Palace was once again bustling with noise.
Some of the officials were arguing. They were arguing over money, the time and scale of the troops to be deployed, the military authority, and the future plans for Jingguo. It was a chaotic mess.
There were also some officials who were listening to the arguments of other officials as they dealt with official documents.
There were even some scholars who were arguing with others as they read through official documents. They had the style of a famous scholar.
The Throne Room had become a food market.
As Fang Yun listened to General Li explain the current situation, he didn't forget to listen to the arguments of other officials. At the same time, he took down all the documents that he could see.
Fang Yun's expression became worse and worse.
The situation in Jingguo was far more chaotic than he had imagined.
Now, the Left Prime Minister's party was rising. Not only did they not think of ways to protect the country, but they also wanted to retreat and move the capital!
A considerable number of officials were passive and began to agree with the Left Prime Minister's party.
The Left Prime Minister Mount Liu had yet to say anything. He sat there and dealt with official documents. He never participated in the arguments.
However, there were some official documents that required the Left Minister's Seal to be passed. Liu Shan had left them to the side and delayed making a decision.
In order to fight against the Barbarians, Jingguo had formed twenty Protectorate Armies. Each Protectorate Army had five hundred thousand soldiers. However, nearly half of the Protectorate Army had not experienced any major battles.
After the Barbarians gained control of the Heaven Incinerating Furnace, they drove away the Water Tribe and launched an attack at all costs. The frontline fortresses in the Northeast, North, and Northwest were all destroyed. More than eighty percent of the elite soldiers were killed.
Jingguo was at its weakest right now.
The reason why Jingguo was able to build three new fortresses in such a short time was because of the help of Notre-Dame and the Gongzi Family. They continuously sent in mechanisms that they had researched in recent years to test the effects of those mechanisms.
Otherwise, the three fortresses would not have been able to hold on for even a day.
Fang Yun was most concerned about Zhang Poyue before he left. However, in the Imperial Court, the life and death of a Grand Scholar were not worth wasting time on.
Once the Barbarians broke through the three connected fortresses, they would arrive outside Ning An City!
Once Ning An City fell, the Barbarian Army would arrive at Yuyang Pass.
After Yuyang Pass, the Capital City would have no natural barriers to defend!
Jingguo was in imminent danger.
In the Imperial Court, Fang Yun kept sending letters.
Fang Yun asked Ao Huang to lead the Water Tribe of the Yangtze River through the East Sea and quickly reach the Yishui River outside Ning An City. They had to build fortifications at all costs to protect Ning An City.
All the Water Tribe of the Yangtze River took action. The East Sea Dragon Palace also secretly helped.
Ao Qingyue sent a letter to Fang Yun apologizing. Unless the East Sea Dragon Palace went to war with the Barbarians, they would not be able to fight with the Heaven-burning Cauldron.
Fang Yun did not blame the East Sea Dragon Palace. This was a long-planned operation by the Barbarians. The Sea Tribe had already sacrificed a lot.
Many aristocratic families and scholars also sent letters to Fang Yun, saying that they were willing to send some resources to Jingguo in the name of funding Xusheng to fight against the Barbarians.
The Hall of Works did not hide its support for Fang Yun. Most of the rare resources from the Ten Frigid Ancient Land and the Flood Dragon Palace were distributed to the Hall of Works by Notre-Dame. The Hall of Works continuously turned these resources into mechanisms to help Jingguo.
Every year, the Women's Academy in Kongcheng would mobilize some women to save the dying and heal the wounded. Just three days ago, a thousand trained women from the Academy had already gone to Ning An City to help the medical scholars save the wounded in Jingguo.
The Human Tribe once again went to Ning An City to help Fang Xusheng.
Jingguo was in a precarious situation.
