Ye Futian was a little speechless at the Black Wind Condor. He pressed his hand on the condor's head and turned to leave, feeling a chill run down his spine.
This debt was probably going to be on his head. After all, that bastard Little Condor had asked Kong Xuan to serve him.
Xia Qingyuan was expressionless as she said, "Let's go."
The vast army of Emperor Xia's Realm retreated as soon as she said this. After the flag battle, the imperial flag would be placed at the highest point of the Imperial City. This meant that the Battle of Empty Realm had officially begun, and life and death were up to fate.
The battlefield of the Empty Realm had always been extremely cruel. In the moment of life and death, verbal exchanges were naturally nothing. No matter how vicious the words were, they could come out of the mouths of the other side. Although the Black Wind Condor had insulted Kong Xuan, those demonic beasts had also insulted her.
Everything would only be revealed on the battlefield.
"If the imperial flag is placed in the Imperial City, won't we have to send troops to guard it?" Seemingly inadvertently, Ye Futian and Xia Qingyuan walked at the front, and the army followed behind them. He asked Xia Qingyuan.
"Yes." Xia Qingyuan nodded. "In the Battle of Empty Realm, if the imperial flag is cut down, you will be eliminated. For many years, the losing side's imperial flag has been cut down, and many cultivators have been killed. Don't think of bringing people to cut down the imperial flag. Although we have won all three battles in the flag battle, in reality, you have seen the strength of the other side. They are not weak, and they have not even brought out divine implements."
Ye Futian understood what Xia Qingyuan meant. Many of the armies led by the three Imperial Realms were top-notch figures in the Imperial Realms, and there was no lack of top-notch cultivators like Wang Chuan. Moreover, the Princes and Princesses had come in person. Who would believe that they did not have top-notch divine implements?
If the army were to line up and attack the enemy, they would probably be able to kill the true Saints of the first rank.
The bravery of an ordinary man may be able to slaughter on the battlefield, but to cut down the imperial flag with one's own strength was too difficult, unless he burned the will of the emperor.
But he had already survived at the hands of Emperor Xia. Now, in the Upper Worlds, if he dared to do so, he would really be looking for death.
"Moreover, while the army is attacking, won't we also have to be on guard against a surprise attack from the other side?" Ye Futian asked.
"Naturally, so we need to monitor the movements of the other side at all times. Apart from that, we also need to be on guard against any cultivators who appear within the boundaries of the three battlefields. Even if they are lone cultivators from the Empty Realm, they could still be the other side's people or spies. So, in the battlefields, as long as we find that they are not on our side, we need to take them down." Xia Qingyuan continued, "Apart from that, we also cannot show too much of our strength right from the start."
"Will this force them to join forces?" Ye Futian asked.
"The battle of the three sides is more complicated, and no one dares to trust each other. After all, there can only be one winner, and even if they join forces, they are worried that they will be tricked. When they attack, they will not take the initiative, and they also need to be on guard against being tricked. Even if they pretend to join forces, they will actually set up a trap to surround you, and then cut down your imperial flag first. It is impossible to guard against. In the past battles of the Empty Realm, all kinds of situations have happened, so unless one side is too strong, it will directly break the balance," Xia Qingyuan explained.
"In the last Battle of Empty Realm, the leader of Emperor Li's Realm was a disciple of the Imperial Advisor of the Dali Dynasty. He was very good at stratagems, and in several confrontations, he did not hesitate to sacrifice a quarter of his army as bait, always showing weakness, so that Emperor Xia's Realm and the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm would let down their guard. The Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm was the strongest, so they invited Emperor Xia's Realm to join forces against the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm. As long as they took down the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm, it would be the same as victory for Emperor Xia's Realm, and they naturally agreed. However, in the battlefield, the other side repeatedly sowed discord, causing the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm and Emperor Xia's Realm to fight fiercely. After cutting down the imperial flag of the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm, Emperor Li's Realm suddenly burst out with all their strength and attacked the army of Emperor Xia's Realm, killing all the way into Emperor Xia's City, killing countless people, cutting down the imperial flag, and winning the Battle of Empty Realm."
Xia Qingyuan's voice was calm. It was obvious that she was familiar with the history of the last Battle of Empty Realm and took it as a lesson. In truth, in the last Battle of Empty Realm, although Emperor Li's Realm had hidden their strength, but relatively speaking, they were the weakest of the three sides, especially after losing their own army. It could only be said that the disciple of the Imperial Advisor of Dali was bold enough, and very scheming.
Although Ye Futian did not know the history of the last Battle of Empty Realm, it was a battle every ten years, and it was related to the ten-year control of the Empty Realm. Presumably, any means could have been used on the battlefield.
At this time, behind them, many saw Xia Qingyuan and Ye Futian walking alone at the front, side by side, and many people looked surprised.
In the previous flag battle, Yu Sheng and the Black Wind Condor were both Ye Futian's people, and he had won two battles, so he must have been very strong himself. It was normal for the princess to think highly of him, but they did not expect her to think so highly of him, as if she was treating him as an equal.
Xiao Sheng and Gongsun Zhong looked very gloomy. Xiao Sheng was prepared to enter Emperor Xia's Palace through the last Battle of Empty Realm, and it was a good chance to accumulate military merits and prestige in the battle, so that he could legitimately serve by Xia Qingyuan's side and hold real power.
But looking at the scene, Xia Qingyuan had vaguely seen Ye Futian as her deputy general, and that was the hope that the clan had for him.
The army returned to Emperor Xia's City, and the imperial flag was planted in a palace in the center of the imperial city. Xia Qingyuan looked around at everyone on the stairs and said, "In this Battle of Empty Realm, the army of Emperor Xia's Realm will be divided into five armies. Tian and Dou will be one each, and I believe the Sacred General has already arranged for the leaders. In addition, the cultivators of the Nine States led by Ye Futian will be one army. Although the major forces of the Upper Worlds come from different top forces, since they are on the battlefield, they will also be one army under my direct command. The cultivators of Emperor Xia's City of Empty Realm will be led by Tian Ji, the son of the Sacred General.
The top forces of the Upper Worlds included Divine Cloud Valley, the Xiao clan, the Xuanyuan Palace, the Jiutian Temple, the Qin Palace, and many other top forces. Their lineup could be said to be very strong, and they all had their own leaders, so only Xia Qingyuan could keep them in check. Otherwise, these people would have been on their own, and it would have been difficult for them to act as one, which was obviously not conducive to the Battle of Empty Realm.
As for Emperor Xia's City in the Empty Realm, there had always been a force of Emperor Xia. After the Battle of Empty Realm, there was a need to stop the killing. The victors took control of the Empty Realm, and they naturally would not kill indiscriminately and incite the wrath of the other side.
"We are willing to serve the Princess," Xiao Sheng and Gongsun Zhong were the first to bow and say, and then the other cultivators followed suit.
Of the five armies, Ye Futian's group had the fewest people, and they could not even be called an army, but Xia Qingyuan still let them form their own faction. In Xia Qingyuan's eyes, while Ye Futian's group did not have many people, they had several top-notch figures, and they could serve as the spearhead of the army of Emperor Xia's Realm.
Xia Qingyuan continued to assign tasks. The cultivators of the Empty Realm were the most familiar with the situation in the Empty Realm, and they were mainly responsible for guarding the imperial flag and monitoring the movements. All of this was naturally done by Tian Ji.
While Xia Qingyuan was assigning tasks, Ye Futian walked away alone.
"Where are you going?" Xia Qingyuan looked at Ye Futian and asked.
"I'm going to take a walk outside the Demon City," Ye Futian said. The Black Wind Condor and he were telepathically connected, and it was a little excited, flapping its wings and coming to Ye Futian's side.
Xia Qingyuan looked at Ye Futian. As expected, this guy would not listen to orders, and that was something she had expected, so she did not intend to assign any tasks to Ye Futian.
"Brother Ye, the Battle of Empty Realm is not something that can be done with brute force. No matter how strong you are, it will not be of any help. It is better to listen to the Princess's instructions," Xiao Sheng said with a smile, and his attitude was very kind.
Ye Futian looked at him, then looked at Xia Qingyuan and said, "Rest assured, Princess. I am just going to check out the situation, and I will not take any risks. I am just going to wander around."
Xia Qingyuan heard Ye Futian's words and nodded slightly, saying, "Be careful."
"Thank you, Princess." Ye Futian nodded, then looked at the Sword Saint Gu Dongliu and the others, saying, "When I am not here, Big Brother will be in charge."
As he said that, Ye Futian stepped onto the Black Wind Condor alone. The Black Wind Condor flapped its wings and took off into the distance.
"Boss, are you going to get a concubine?" The Black Wind Condor's eyes sparkled, and he looked a little excited, saying, "The daughter of the Demon Peacock Emperor. Although she is a demonic cultivator, she is no different from a human. Her figure is simply perfect."
Boss is really fast, and I am really looking forward to it.
"Are you not going to be able to make a stew?" Ye Futian looked down at the Black Wind Condor, and the Black Wind Condor suddenly shrank his head, feeling a little wronged. Does Boss not have any feelings for that demonic woman?
"Wait until we get to the Demon Peacock City, then you can open your mouth," Ye Futian continued. The Black Wind Condor's eyes lit up. Does that mean that he wants me to provoke the people of the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm?
…
At the Dali Dynasty, far away, when the Battle of Empty Realm began.
The Dali Dynasty's imperial palace was extremely majestic, towering into the sky, and even more magnificent than Emperor Xia's Palace.
At that moment, in the Sky Observation Tower of the Dali Dynasty's imperial palace, a middle-aged man wearing a Taoist robe stood at the top of the tower, looking at the stars in the sky.
He waved his hand, and suddenly the stars in the sky changed, as if the Great Path was changing.
That middle-aged man in the Taoist robe was a giant figure in the Dali Dynasty, second only to one person, and above billions of people — the Imperial Advisor of Dali.
The Imperial Advisor of Dali was the most knowledgeable person in the Dali Dynasty, and everyone in the Dali Dynasty knew that there was no ability that the Imperial Advisor was not good at.
The Imperial Advisor took in very few students, but every one of them was a genius who could rule the world. The prosperity of the Dali Dynasty today was due to the Imperial Advisor of Dali.
Looking at the changes in the sky, the Imperial Advisor frowned. Two beams of dazzling light shot out from his eyes, as if they were able to penetrate the sky and see the secrets of the heavens.
However, after watching the sky change for a long time, there was blood flowing from his eyes, which was a shocking sight, but he seemed to feel nothing. After a long while, he finally gave up.
He sighed silently, wondering why the Dali Dynasty's fate was declining!
