With Empress Cao watching over Qi Ying, she couldn't move at all, let alone inform Ye Mo.
As for Ye Mo and the others, they had no idea that Li Tianqiong had already returned to the Heaven's Wall City. They were just waiting for the Martial Faction's army to attack the Heaven's Wall City so that they could walk right into the trap.
A day passed. When the morning sun shone on the emperor, the atmosphere of the Heaven's Wall City exploded.
The Heaven's Wall City was the capital of the Tianwu Kingdom, right under the emperor's feet.
Everyone knew that the Martial Faction would lead the army to attack the Heaven's Wall City and occupy the palace. The time for the Tianwu Kingdom to change dynasties had arrived.
The Qingyun League was ready to set off as well. Apart from some of the higher-ups, everyone was dressed in the same uniform with a huge "Martial" character on their back, representing the fight for the Martial Faction.
After a few days of seclusion, Ye Mo had completely stabilized his Spirit Devour Realm strength. This time, he would be the main force to assist Xuan Ji in taking down the Heaven's Wall City.
Thus, when the first light of dawn broke through the sky, tens of thousands of flying demonic beasts appeared in the sky above the Qingyun League, descending in an orderly manner.
The entire Qingyun League was also in high spirits, building up their morale for this expedition.
There were indeed a lot of people from the Martial Faction, not just the three leagues. Many castellans were from the Martial Faction, leading their own soldiers to join the Martial Faction's army.
As time passed, the Martial Faction's army gathered more and more. The flying demonic beasts in the sky were very orderly.
Xuan Ji wore a cloak as she commanded the army.
As for Ye Mo, he was hidden in the sky, ready to assist the army at any time to take down the Heaven's Wall City.
Almost all of the Qingyun League's warriors were mobilized, even the Spirit Cultivating Realm warriors.
Counting carefully, there were a total of 100,000 soldiers, an extremely frightening number.
With a wave of Xuan Ji's arm, the army started marching towards the Heaven's Wall City.
。。
After half an hour, the Martial Faction's army had already arrived at the city gate of the Heaven's Wall City. The city gate was already filled with Imperial Guards. Every Imperial Guard carried a True Energy Cannon. It was a type of cannon that could directly use beast cores as energy to launch attacks. There were more than a hundred of these cannons, and all of them were aimed at the Martial Faction's army.
This kind of True Qi Cannon was extremely powerful, and even a True Element Boundary master would not be able to escape unscathed.
However, the Martial Faction also had such cannons. Although their numbers couldn't compare to the empire's, with the help of so many experts, their aura completely suppressed the empire's.
Rumble!
A True Elemental Cannon shot out fiercely, as if giving a command. Then, hundreds of cannons fired at the same time.
Boom boom boom!
The Zhen Yuan cannonballs, which contained powerful attacks, flew in a straight line towards the gate of the Heaven's Wall City.
But just as these cannons burst out, a golden light suddenly shone down. Under the illumination of the golden light, these Quintessential Essence cannons completely lost their power and exploded in the air.
The person who appeared had fair skin and was dressed luxuriously. Her hair was tied up in an elegant bun. It was Lady Cao. In her hand was the Great Emperor's Divine Token. Under the holy light, the attacks of the True Energy Realm were all turned into nothingness.
Looking at the token in Lady Cao's hand, Ye Mo's eyes widened. He had a deep impression of that token. To be precise, that token had saved the Xiao Clan once.
"Li Tianqiong gave Empress Cao and Qi Ying a Great Emperor's Holy Token each. This holy token is imbued with the Great Emperor's will and can ignore the attacks of True Energy Realm. Even a Spirit Devour Realm expert would be wary of it."
Empress Cao herself wasn't strong, but with the Great Emperor's Divine Token, her strength was close to the Spirit Devour Realm. Furthermore, the range of the Great Emperor's Divine Token was extremely wide. Wherever the holy light shone, the token's attack range would be covered.
"How dare you rebel! Surrender now! The Great Emperor's Divine Token is equivalent to the arrival of the emperor himself. Put down your weapons."
Empress Cao flew in the air, holding the Great Emperor's Divine Token in her hand. Facing the 100,000 strong army, there wasn't a trace of fear on her face.
"Commander Xuan Ji, this Great Emperor's Divine Token can nullify all attacks," Yao Qingyun said. "I'm afraid our True Energy Cannons and crossbows are useless. We can only capture Empress Cao alive before we can break through the city gates."
Yao Qingyun said.
"The Great Emperor's Divine Token is nothing more than a Spirit Weapon. But with the Emperor's Will, it is indeed extraordinary. Which elder is willing to capture Empress Cao?"
Hearing this, Xuan Ji frowned. She was the commander of this army. Naturally, she couldn't act recklessly.
"Xuan Ji, let me do it!"
Cai Ling flew out, her beautiful eyes staring at Empress Cao in the air. Cai Ling had cultivated her third fox tail and her strength had recovered to the peak of the Spirit Devour Realm.
Without waiting for Xuan Ji's response, Cai Ling shot towards Empress Cao.
"Imperial Guards, open fire at that traitor!"
Seeing Cai Ling attack her, Empress Cao immediately commanded the Imperial Guards on the city walls. In an instant, all the cannons were aimed at Cai Ling.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Hundreds of cannonballs turned into a giant screen, covering the entire sky as they attacked Cai Ling.
Seeing this, even Ye Mo's expression changed slightly. He was naturally worried that Cai Ling would be injured by these cannonballs.
But Cai Ling wasn't as weak as Ye Mo thought. With a wave of the Spirit Weapon in her hand, a small True Energy Spirit Fox appeared.
"Flash of the Spirit Fox!"
The Spirit Fox flashed repeatedly in the sky. Every time it appeared, it would pounce on a cannonball. In an instant, all the cannonballs exploded in the air under Cai Ling's sword.
"Empress Cao, die!"
Cai Ling waved her sword at Empress Cao again. Another Spirit Fox turned into a silver light and shot towards Empress Cao.
"Ah!"
Seeing this, Empress Cao pouted and immediately screamed, "Great Emperor, save me!"
Boom!
Suddenly, the whole sky started to tremble violently. The Spirit Fox instantly disappeared in the air.
"How dare you rebel! You dare to rebel and scare the emperor's beloved concubine? All of you must die!"
Suddenly, a furious voice resounded through the entire world like a giant bell. Everyone who heard this voice revealed a shocked expression on their faces.
Ye Mo's expression changed as well, astonished.
"The emperor is back?"
"That's right, the emperor is back. Haha, the emperor is back. These Martial Faction rebels must all die."
"The emperor is always the strongest. He will protect us. As long as we defend the Heaven's Wall City, the Martial Faction will never be able to break through."
The Imperial Guards on top of the city wall laughed out loud in excitement.
Almost 90% of the Martial Faction people began to tremble violently. The emperor was the strongest warrior in the Tianwu Kingdom. The emperor's return meant the end of the Martial Faction.
"Where is this Li Tianqiong? Why can't I sense him?"
Ye Mo, who was hiding in the air, kept searching, but he couldn't find Li Tianqiong.
"He's sending a message from a thousand miles away," Hong Ling said. "He's indeed back. Maybe he's in the palace, but he's not here in person."
Hong Ling's voice rang out.
"Impossible. With his personality, he'll definitely kill me first if he knows I killed Cao Zhengchun. But he's not here. What's going on?"
Ye Mo was completely confused.
