"The Senate? "Humph. Those old guys are always trying to scare me, as if it is a very embarrassing thing that I can't obey their orders. When I sit on the throne, the first order that I give will be to dissolve the Council of Elders!" Let's see if they dare to be so arrogant in the future! "
Ye Tong sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. He was grumbling with a face full of displeasure.
The Senate had the power to impeach the Branch Family's Master and Councilors. It also had the power to make plans for the Bai Family and arrange personnel. It was an organization formed by some of the more experienced and powerful members of the older generation.
Most of the time, these old men and women did not show their faces. They only stayed in the Senate for the rest of their lives. Unless something major happened, they would not discuss it.
However, in the past few years, as the situation on the Seven Continents changed, the Senate, which had always been hidden behind the scenes, gradually came to the surface to help the White King manage the Bai Family's affairs. Their power was even greater than that of the Branch Family's Master.
The first time the Senate appeared was not long after Li Xiang killed the Sixteenth Ancestor, Bai Yu. They made the final decision to abandon Bai Yu and become friends with Li Xiang. This was to pave the way for future cooperation with the new Polar Night.
It could be said that these old men and women were the best of the best. They had all lived for a long time. Their strength, experience, and experience were all shocking. Every order they gave was the result of thousands of careful deliberations.
After that, they led Ye Tong's promotion and the announcement of her identity as the First Successor. They could be said to be the strongest supporters of the Bai Family.
With the intention of continuing the Bai Family's legacy, these old men wholeheartedly focused on the First Descendant of the Bai Family. They tried to make her into the perfect White King's second descendant. From her cultivation, personality, connections, and so on, they created a terrifyingly detailed life plan for her.
Because of this, the relationship between Ye Tong and Crescent Moon naturally became a headache for these old men. They did not behave normally and kept discussing and making decisions internally. They tried to change Ye Tong's point of view and even used their power to stop her. This made Ye Tong extremely annoyed.
Ye Tong had learned to be arrogant from Li Xiang. She would never admit defeat to them. The more they acted like this, the more she would do the opposite.
Hearing Ye Tong's angry words, the old man laughed and said to her kindly, "Oh you, they are doing this for your own good. Why do you have to go against them? If you really did tear down the Senate in the future, where would Dong Xue go for seclusion? Where am I going to retire? "
"Hmph!" Ye Tong snorted coldly and pouted. Of course, she knew what those old men and women were thinking. Disbanding the Senate was just for show. However, every time something related to New Moon was brought up, those old men would use all kinds of methods as if they were facing a great enemy. Ye Tong was speechless.
If her brother was here, what would he do?
Ye Tong's thoughts raced. Suddenly, he thought of Li Xiang, whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
She remembered seeing her brother a few years ago in the Gemini territory. He and Big Sister Ming Xu lived in the forest, living a carefree life. At that time, he was the most relaxed and the happiest.
She still remembered that one night, he had secretly told her that even now, he felt that the days he had spent with her in the cramped rented apartment were the happiest days of his life.
At that time, she had laughed at her brother for being nostalgic. Looking back, wasn't it the same for her?
After she came to the Bai family, she lived a life of luxury. Whatever she wanted, she just had to say it, and King Bai would do anything to get it for her. She had the best teachers to teach her cultivation, and she was treated like a princess. She was even more pampered in the Bai family, and everyone was envious of her.
After her legs were healed, the thing she regretted the most was gone. However, she always felt that something was missing in her life. She was no longer as happy as before.
Ye Tong sighed and looked out the window. Black smoke rose from the ground, and the flames of war were burning below. Her thoughts were pulled back to reality.
Thinking about New Moon, who was still waiting for her, she felt her vitality return to her body. She smiled and stood up. A few maids immediately followed her and helped her change into her equipment and battle uniform.
At the border of the Southern Continent, there were dozens of Alternate World Gates. Countless foreign races rushed out from them and attacked the bases of the Yue family. On the ground, there were also the elite troops of the Player Alliance. They surrounded New Moon's troops on a plain.
In the center of the plain, there were temporary steel fortresses and camps. There were heavy magic cannons on all sides. The cannons fired continuously, forcing the enemy troops to retreat. However, not long after, the number of casualties would be replenished, and the troops would approach the camp like a tsunami.
Every time the magic cannons fired, the enemy troops would get closer. In a few minutes, they would launch a terrifying attack on the camp and the fortress.
This attack would occur every hour. It was the toughest test for New Moon and her troops. If they couldn't defend, they would die.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Three figures flashed across the long battlefield. They took advantage of the magic cannons' firing and quickly arrived in front of the defending troops.
These three were all Level 3 players. Their faces were cold and murderous. They rushed toward the defending soldiers aggressively.
The goal of this battle was clear. The Player Alliance wanted to capture New Moon alive and use her as a bargaining chip to break through the Yue family's defense.
Now, the women of the Yue family represented a large amount of resources. Everyone was tempted, let alone the Fourth Miss, New Moon.
She was fighting alone at the border. After her whereabouts were exposed, she was ambushed by the Player Alliance. By the time she realized this, it was already too late. The possibility of her breaking through the encirclement was almost zero.
After the news spread, the reinforcements of the Yue family were blocked in advance and couldn't make it.
This scene seemed familiar, and it was exactly the same as when they'd encircled and annihilated Ming Xu.
These people were used to doing this kind of thing, so they were very familiar with it. At that time, the Yue Clan, who had not been deeply involved in Ming Xu's matter, finally understood how much pressure and despair Ming Xu had endured back then. And she was actually able to complete her mission in the end.
"Kill! Follow me in to capture New Moon alive. Long delays may cause trouble! " The leader of the group was a burly man, a level 5 player. In the past, he was rejected by the Yue Family and held a grudge against them. After joining the Players' Alliance, he volunteered to participate in this mission to kill New Moon.
He was like a running beast. Wherever he went, the defending soldiers would explode. They couldn't withstand his pressure at all.
New Moon's army of a million was only one-third left. Most of the army members were magic users. They couldn't resist this kind of mid-tier player.
This was the main reason why New Moon couldn't break through the encirclement.
She couldn't break through just by relying on numbers. The combat power of the players on her side was not on the same level as the enemy. If it weren't for the fact that many low-tier players valued their lives and were worried about accidentally dying in such a chaotic battle, she wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long.
The magic cannons once again fell into an interval. The soldiers on both sides clashed with their short swords. The magic cannons couldn't fire anymore. The grand Blood Banquet began. Broken limbs and body parts flew everywhere.
New Moon pulled out the purple samurai sword on her back and rushed into the crowd. She was agile and nimble. In an instant, she collided with a few players.
She was only 1.58 meters tall and had a petite figure. Her appearance was exquisite and beautiful, but her expression was incomparably indifferent. There was a vague expression between her eyebrows.
In the final trial, Yu Zhitong and Ye Tong had both been injured, and she had obtained first place. Although it seemed like an unfair victory, not many people doubted her strength. It could be seen that New Moon's popularity and recognition among the new generation was very high.
Her strongest point was her single-point combat ability. She walked the path of the most extreme assassin. She was like an unsheathed sword. She rushed into the crowd and took a head with every slash.
New Moon had met Li Xiang once before. She was very curious about this famous new generation player. After learning about Li Xiang's achievements, she naturally became his number one fangirl. She had told Ye Tong many times that she wanted to become Li Xiang's disciple.
However, New Moon's idol was Ming Xu. As an assassin, Ming Xu had too many things that she looked forward to.
It was a pity that she never had the chance to meet Ming Xu.
New Moon turned into a purple blur with the samurai sword in her hand. She shuttled through the battlefield like a ghost or a grim reaper, reaping lives.
The few low-tier players who were clamoring to kill her were beheaded before they could even see her figure clearly.
With her joining the battle, the situation on the battlefield changed a little.
The fact that the main general had personally stepped into the battlefield was inspiring, and the soldiers on this side were all excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood. They forcefully slaughtered the enemies that had rushed into the fortress and the camp.
The ferocious Level-5 player quickly locked onto New Moon's figure. He strode over and cast a spell. His murderous aura and terrifying aura made the low-level players and magic users around him turn pale. They quickly moved out of the way.
Boom!
A ball of ice and fire collided with New Moon's feet and sent her flying.
The huge force crashed into the ground and burned a bottomless pit. The fire and ice intertwined in the pit. It was a horrifying sight.
The ferocious man roared. His roar was earth-shattering. With him as the center, a boundless two-colored flame rose. It burned fiercely and burned the people around the battlefield to death. It was extremely brutal.
"An offensive Magician!" New Moon's eyes were sharp. She recognized that her opponent was an offensive Magician who was very good at fighting. He also had a strong physique and was good at close combat.
She flew away to avoid these dual-colored flames. Those who were unlucky enough to come into contact with even a trace of it would either be burned to a crisp or frozen to death on the spot.
One spell after another flew out of his hands. New Moon had no choice but to fight him head-on.
One of them was Level-5 and the other was Level-3. Even if New Moon was a genius, it was difficult for her to fight someone who was two levels higher than her. The ferocious man's spells were terrifying. When they landed on her body, New Moon was instantly covered in blood.
Although this battlefield was meant to kill New Moon, there was not a single high-level player. The strongest person on the battlefield was only Level-5.
The high-level combatants were all restricted to the Moon Family's territory. The Moon King and ten Level-9 players were fighting there. There were also many high-level players fighting to the death. Therefore, no one would think that the players' alliance had set up a trap to kill New Moon.
Even if there were no high-level players, a few Level-4 and Level-5 players were enough to give New Moon a headache.
She knew that she could not be captured alive. Otherwise, her mother would be controlled by others. She would rather fight to the death than surrender.
The samurai sword flew out in a beautiful arc. Drops of blood flew out of her body and turned into spots of light. As she swung the sword, a purple moonlight burst out. It was as if it was going to split the sky and the earth.
This attack contained all of New Moon's power. She seemed to have turned into a blade and slashed towards the ferocious man's neck.
"What a powerful attack!" The ferocious man could not help but exclaim. He was a Level-5 Magician and an offensive Magician who was good at fighting. He was not weaker than a Level-3 player. However, when he faced New Moon, he felt like he was walking on a tightrope.
It was as if he would be beheaded if he was not careful.
This meant that her swordsmanship and assassination techniques were powerful enough to threaten a Level-5 player!
She was indeed one of the best of the new generation. If she was given another three or four years of training, she would soon be stronger than him!
The ferocious man calmed himself down and slowly opened his False Territory.
"Such a cold and arrogant girl. I wonder how it feels to be in bed with her. Hehe." He waved his fists and three more Level-5 players walked out from behind him. They surrounded New Moon from all sides.
New Moon felt as if her attack had hit an iron shield. The speed of her attack became extremely slow and her power was draining away bit by bit. She was shocked.
"Territory? False Territory? "
Only players who were at the boundary between Level-5 and Level-6 could have False Territory abilities.
Territory was the symbol of high-level players. It was also the main difference between them and other players.
False Territory was similar to Territory to low-level and mid-level players. It was a destructive threat. However, in the eyes of high-level players, it was just a clumsy imitation. It was not very useful.
Normal players would either never be able to reach Level-6 in their lifetime or they would be able to reach Level-5 once they knew that it was impossible for them to reach Level-6. It was said that once they reached a certain point, they would be able to obtain False Territory abilities that were similar to Territory.
This kind of ability was the bane of low-level and mid-level players. Even someone as strong as New Moon could not resist it.
The ferocious man's False Territory was similar to a gravity field. Under ten times the force, New Moon's speed was naturally extremely slow. Her attacks were also not as powerful as before.
Bang!
She was sent flying by a punch and fell to the ground in despair.
"Hehe, the boss only said that he would bring her back. He did not say whether we could play with her or not. I'll go first." A Level-5 player with a sneaky face smiled. His eyes were filled with lust. "I heard that the women of the Yue family are much tighter than ordinary women. They are all rare treasures."
New Moon looked at him coldly. She knew that he was trying to destroy her will to fight on a spiritual level. He was trying to humiliate her. She was not moved. She only held her katana tightly and prepared for the next attack.
At this moment, a figure descended from the sky, accompanied by a cold and harsh laughter.
"I don't know if it's tight or not, but I know that you won't have the chance to use that thing in the future!"
