Among the six empires of Middle Earth, the Lou family's Dayin Dynasty in the southeast had already submitted to Chang 'an.
The Zhao family's Dajing Dynasty in the east had basically been completely conquered by Chang 'an.
On the other hand, the Han family's Daning Dynasty in the northeast of Middle Earth would become a part of Chang 'an in the near future, even if they had problems with the Sacred Evolving Mansion.
Nearly half of their country was now covered by Invincible City. What would happen next would be very simple for the people of Chang 'an.
Zhang Dongyun sincerely hoped that Kong Shengzhen, the Sacred Evolving Mansion Lord, would not run away and would fight Chang 'an to the end.
At this distance, he might step into Invincible City if he was not careful.
Speaking of this, there was one more person … Zhang Dongyun's eyes flashed slightly.
In the end, the construction task was completed a little slower than usual.
When the task was completed and Invincible City expanded again to cover Middle Earth and the Nine Peaks Academy, Chu Yaoguang had already left after chasing the golden-winged roc.
The expansion of Invincible City did not take her in.
This made Zhang Dongyun feel quite regretful.
As long as Chu Yaoguang came in, he would know whether she was loyal or not, what she was hiding, and what she was asking about.
"If I can't catch her, I'll ignore her for now."
Zhang Dongyun sent a message to Chu Yaoguang through the Azure Sky Eye. "Come back first."
Chu Yaoguang's voice came through the Azure Sky Eye. "Brother, don't worry. I'll be careful. Besides the golden-winged roc, I'll also check the movements of the Tai Qing Palace and the Sacred Evolving Mansion."
Zhang Dongyun's eyes showed a playful look, but his tone was calm as usual. "Okay, be careful."
"Brother, don't worry." Then Chu Yaoguang cut off the communication.
Zhang Dongyun returned to the Daming Palace in Chang 'an in the east and sat down on the throne again.
There must be something wrong with Chu Yaoguang.
But he was not sure what the problem was at the moment.
I must find a chance to find out … Zhang Dongyun thought to himself.
Although Master Zhang was a little concerned about Chu Yaoguang's matter, the overall situation in the Central Plains was currently in the process of pursuing victory. There was no need for him to do it personally.
Ao Kong, Shen Herong, Lou Ning, Chu Xin, Long Te, Zhao Shu, and the others were all heroes of their respective regions. Naturally, they could handle it well.
Thus, on the Central Plains, after pacifying and adjusting the original foundation of the Zhao Family and the Great Jing Dynasty, the masters of Chang 'an began to turn their spearheads and collectively headed north.
Chu Xin, Zhao Shu, Cao Ranran, Yuan Zhe, and the other Confucian masters from the eastern border quickly stabilized the situation within the Great Jing Dynasty.
Meanwhile, after Lou Ning continued to stabilize the internal situation of the Great Yin Dynasty, he, Ao Kong, Shen Herong, led Long Te, Li Jie, Zhuo Zui, and the others into the Han Family's Great Ning Dynasty in the northeast of Middle Earth.
In the Da Ning Dynasty, other than the Ning Emperor, Han Feng, the royal family had other 13th Realm cultivators.
The change of the throne and the situation within the country would not be a problem for the time being.
However, that was under the premise that there was no external pressure.
Now that the Chang 'an army was wantonly heading north, the pressure on the Da Ning Dynasty immediately increased.
Zhang Dongyun was in the Daming Palace in Chang 'an City. Through the curse mark on the foreheads of Lou Ning and the others, he witnessed the scene in Middle Earth and felt that it was interesting.
Chang 'an's attack on Middle Earth was somewhat different from when they first unified the eastern border.
When they attacked the eastern border, there would be many factions that were dissatisfied with the rule of their respective dynasties and would surrender to Chang 'an in advance.
Even if they did not surrender early, when Chang 'an's army arrived and the local dynasties lost their power, the majority would still choose to surrender to Chang' an.
On Middle Earth, aside from Lou Ning's special situation, there were few factions that successfully surrendered to Chang 'an like the Mingde Academy, where Zhao Shu was the dean, and the Long Family led by Long Te.
On the contrary, even though the Zhao Family, the Great Jing Dynasty, and the Han Family had successively fallen in the Da Ning Dynasty, these factions still insisted on fighting to the death and were unwilling to surrender.
Among them, the biggest impact was that the identity of the Twelve Kings of Hell was exposed.
Even in Dayin's territory under Lou Ning, there were people who were originally loyal to Dayin but chose to rebel because Lou Ning surrendered to Chang 'an.
Although they were all suppressed by Lou Ning in the end, similar things had happened more than once, which meant that there was a problem.
Regarding this, Master Zhang could only shrug.
With the help of Chu Yaoguang, Shen Herong, Ao Kong, and the others, they naturally had to bear the corresponding negative impact.
However, to be honest, their reputation back then was actually not that bad.
In the past 30 years, it had worsened a lot.
Tai Qing Palace, Sacred Evolving Manor, Zhongyue Temple, Lingguang Temple, and a few other dynasties probably contributed a lot.
However, while the various small factions resisted Chang 'an's army, the royal family of the Da Ning Dynasty was very clear-headed.
Tai Qing Palace's Sect Master Peng Ziling was blocked.
Sacred Evolving Manor's Sect Master Kong Shengzhen was blocked.
Tai Qing Palace's Sect Elder Qing He.
Nine Peaks Academy's Sect Master Shen Tianxian.
Sacred Evolving Manor's Kong Family's Sect Master Kong Qing.
In addition, the number one person in the royal family of the Da Ning Dynasty, the current Emperor Han Feng.
The four 13th Realm cultivators all died in the Mirror Lake Nine Peaks.
Other than that, there were even rumors that Nine Peaks Academy had contacted a 13th Realm Golden-Winged Roc to attack together.
In the end, the Roc could only flee.
What kind of power was needed to defeat all these cultivators?
The royal family of Da Ning could not make an accurate judgment.
However, it was not difficult for them to confirm that this was a power they could not resist.
Although the number of Chang 'an's cultivators who had killed their way into the Da Ning Dynasty was not that exaggerated.
However, one could imagine how powerful Chang 'an's forces would be when they really used their power.
The only thing the royal family of Da Ning could do now was to contact Sacred Evolving Manor for help.
Sacred Evolving Manor was located in the Da Ning Dynasty, and the two sides had always had a lot of friction in the past.
Although Kong Shengzhen's cultivation was strong, Ning Emperor Han Feng would not obey him completely.
Like Nine Peaks Academy and Zhao Family of Jing Dynasty, there were undercurrents between the royal family of Han Family and Kong Family of the Sacred Evolving Manor.
However, at this time, the Kong Family of the Sacred Evolving Manor had to accept the olive branch from the royal family.
Facing a common enemy that was so powerful that it almost suffocated them, the two families could only put aside their differences and work together to fight the enemy.
Even so, the situation was not optimistic for them.
When Mansion Master Kong Shengzhen finally returned to the Mansion, everyone in the Da Ning Dynasty, both inside and outside the Sacred Evolving Manor, breathed a sigh of relief.
Except for Kong Shengzhen himself.
"It's not 'Sword Demon' Su Po?" Kong Xiang and the other people of the Sacred Evolving Manor all changed their expressions. "There's an unknown Sword Dao cultivator helping Chang 'an?"
Kong Shengzhen's expression was solemn. Slowly, he nodded. "After news of the battle at Nine Peaks Academy came, this woman left immediately. No one knows where she went, but we can't rule out the possibility that she will appear again."
Hearing this, Kong Xiang and the others all looked solemn and nodded.
"Peng Ziling was blocked by Zhong Yue Temple's Kongru?" Kong Shengzhen asked.
The others quickly reported the news from the Tai Qing Palace. "It shouldn't be fake."
Slowly, Kong Shengzhen exhaled. "Right now, we are in the same situation as the Shen family of Nine Peaks Academy. Quickly contact the Tai Qing Palace and invite Peng Ziling here. The enemy is too powerful. We can't afford to divide our forces."
"Yes," Kong Xiang quickly replied.
At this time, a disciple of the Kong family suddenly whispered, "Uncle, is it possible for us to negotiate peace with Chang 'an?"
Hearing this, someone wanted to scold him, but he restrained himself and didn't say anything in the end.
Hearing this, Kong Shengzhen didn't get angry. He just said calmly, "Many disciples of the Kong family and many students of the Sacred Evolving Manor died outside Chang 'an."
The person who spoke had a look of shame on his face.
Kong Xiang patted him on the shoulder. "Even if we are willing, they won't agree. If Chang 'an wasn't controlled by the Twelve Kings of Hell, we might have a chance. If Shen Herong wasn't in Chang' an, we might still have a chance. But now, we can forget about it."
Hearing this, the other person nodded silently.
Kong Xiang and the others immediately left and wrote a letter to the Tai Qing Palace, inviting Peng Ziling, the sect master of the Tai Qing Palace, to come to the Sacred Evolving Manor.
After sitting alone in the main hall for a while, Kong Shengzhen stood up and walked out of the main hall.
He went all the way to the ancestral hall of the Kong family and looked at the incense tablets in silence.
The Kong family and the Sacred Evolving Manor had suffered a great disaster in his hands.
At that time, the Sacred Evolving Manor was breached by the Twelve Kings of Hell. Another peak fourteenth-realm Confucian grandmaster of the Kong family and many teachers and students died tragically.
If Shen Herong hadn't cut off his relationship with the Sacred Evolving Manor at the last moment, the Sacred Evolving Manor would have become history like the Jade Dynasty, the Thunder Temple, and the Pure Yang Palace.
But what would come would come eventually.
It seemed that this was fate.
The enemy of the past had once again made a comeback.
Kong Shengzhen didn't lack understanding of Shen Herong.
Back then, it was indeed because of her that the Kong family and the Sacred Evolving Manor could survive.
But what Kong Xiang said was true. Now that they were enemies again, Shen Herong was the most ruthless and decisive person in the battle between the Chang 'an and the Sacred Evolving Manor.
This time, could the Sacred Evolving Manor still survive this disaster?
Kong Shengzhen stood in the ancestral hall and didn't speak for a long time.
…
Peng Ziling, the sect master of the Tai Qing Palace, was blocked by Master Kong Ru and couldn't participate in the battle of the Mirror Lake Nine Peaks in time.
The follow-up news came that Perfected Qing He and the others were all wiped out.
"This is the result that you want to see, right?" Peng Ziling sighed.
Master Kong Ru put his palms together and said with a calm expression, "I want to see all the people in the world happy, healthy, safe, and happy."
Peng Ziling shook his head, "Chang 'an can't bring this to the Central Plains. They can only bring disaster and destruction."
Master Kong Ru said, "The world changes, and people will also change."
Peng Ziling glanced at him, "Master, will you change again?"
Master Kong Ru replied, "I will try my best to not change."
Peng Ziling nodded and immediately turned into a purple cloud, floating away and returning to the Tai Qing Palace.
Master Kong Ru watched him leave and then turned to look in the direction of the Mirror Lake Nine Peaks. His expression was complicated for a moment.
