Everyone was so shocked by his reaction that they could not react for a moment.
"Fellow Ye!"
Qi Tiandao hurriedly chased after him.
"Court dismissed!"
Yun Yi looked at everyone coldly and left with a flick of his sleeve.
As the few of them left, the officials of the imperial court looked at each other and could not help but look at each other.
An official said weakly, "Sirs, we've discussed for a long time, but it seems like we haven't come up with an effective plan to retreat. What can we do?"
"Why don't we invite that Mr. Ye back?"
A Rank Five official could not help but say, "At the moment of life and death, our dynasty is surrounded in many places. Now, we can only try everything we can."
"What a joke!"
At this moment, Prime Minister Gu Yifu sneered and said, "Looks like the Grand Preceptor is really old. He actually placed the hopes of our dynasty on an outsider!"
At this point, he said nonchalantly, "I don't believe that our dynasty is really at a dead end. Moreover, there's still no news of Yandang Pass's fall. We still have hope …"
"The Prime Minister is right. Yandang Pass is guarded by General Han. In addition, it's easy to defend and difficult to attack. How can the rebels break through …"
"That's right. Before that brat left, he actually told us not to beg him. What a joke. We are high-ranking officials of the imperial court. Why would we beg a commoner?!"
"Even if I die, I won't beg a brat."
"…"
The rest of the ministers chimed in incessantly.
…
Outside the palace.
Qi Tiandao caught up to Ye Chen quickly and sighed softly, "They're all civil officials. Apart from being able to talk, they're useless. Why do you care about them?"
Ye Chen suddenly stopped and turned to look at him, "You're wrong. I'm not arguing with them. I shouldn't have meddled in other people's business!"
With that, he left resolutely.
Seeing that he had made up his mind, Qi Tiandao could only smile bitterly. His figure then disappeared into the hazy night.
That night, several military orders were issued from the capital.
The resulting chain reaction was that countless armies headed south, speeding towards Wild Goose Pass. Obviously, they wanted to reinforce this final barrier.
Secondly, Imperial Advisor Qi Tiandao personally led 200,000 soldiers to the border to resist the attack of 500,000 soldiers from the enemy Qing Kingdom.
Longjing City began to be heavily guarded. People were only allowed to leave, but not to enter. The Royal Guards, the Royal Guards, and the City Defense Army all left the city, setting up three lines of defense between Yandang Pass and Longjing City.
At the same time, the Ministry of War began to mobilize the common people overnight to recruit soldiers and horses. The person in charge was the current Prime Minister, Gu Yifu.
In less than two hours, he had successfully gathered an army of 350,000 soldiers.
One of the ministers complimented, "As expected of the Prime Minister, such efficiency can be said to be godly …"
Gu Yifu stroked his beard and laughed: "This time, I have raised 300,000 soldiers. I have already submitted a petition to Empress Dowager to allow my son Gu You to lead them south."
"With Young Master Gu leading the team personally, we will definitely be victorious. We will defeat the enemy and help our sect escape …"
The Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue was full of flattery. "We will congratulate the Prime Minister in advance. Once the rebels retreat, the Prime Minister's name will definitely shake the major sects. Your prestige might even surpass the Imperial Advisor."
"Yes, yes, yes …"
The others nodded in agreement.
Gu Yifu pretended to be humble. "It's all for the great sect!"
In the Empress Dowager's bedroom.
Yun Yi looked at herself in the mirror in a daze. Her body was a little stiff. "Mr. Ye is gone?"
An old eunuch bowed and said, "Empress Dowager, the people I sent to investigate reported that the mansion was already empty …"
"It seems that Mr. Ye really left …"
Yun Yi's eyes dimmed. She suddenly felt a sense of bitterness in her heart. She then took a deep breath and said, "Forget it. I was too selfish. After all, Mr. Ye is not a member of our sect …"
"It's just that I don't know when I will see Mr. Ye again …"
"Or maybe we will never see each other again in this life …"
At such a time, she did not dare to think about it, and she could not think about it!
…
Less than a thousand miles away from Longjing, in an extremely hidden col.
The terrain was relatively low, and it was a natural cave that extended nearly a hundred feet deep into the ground. If an ordinary person fell in, they would definitely be smashed into pieces.
At that moment, two figures, one big and one small, appeared near the cave. They did not move in the face of the huge suction coming from the cave.
"It's here!"
Ye Chen carried his daughter and looked at the cave before him quietly, "Qi Tiandao once said that the Great Dynasty's wormhole is here. It seems like he didn't lie to me.
Now that I have the Great Dynasty's Teleportation Token, I can teleport to the other five territories. "
His eyes flickered, "However, I still don't know where Yuhan and my parents are. Where should I go? Eastern Wilderness? Southern Region? Western Desert? Or Middle State and Tianfeng sea area?
"The King Mu Fort in the Tianfeng sea area can be considered to be related to me. Perhaps I can use their power to find Yuhan and the rest …"
Ye Chen thought to himself.
The little girl was in his embrace. She looked down from her neck and said in fear of heights, "Daddy, are we jumping down from here?"
"If you're afraid, close your eyes. Open them when daddy calls for you …" Ye Chen kissed her lovingly.
His wife was not here, his parents were not here, and his brothers and friends were not here either. Fortunately, his daughter was with him.
At that moment, his ears trembled a few times, and he suddenly looked into the distance.
Over there, there were several auras rushing towards them. Four of them had actually reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster level.
Ye Chen's eyes flickered a few times. Subsequently, he gestured to his daughter to keep quiet and gradually hid in the void.
"Whoosh, whoosh …"
A moment later, four figures landed near the cave. They were four men, and the leader was a Taoist with a plump figure.
The fat Daoist lowered his head and sized up the cave for a few seconds before saying, "Fellow Wu, are you sure that the wormhole below is where the royal family of the major sects are hiding?"
A freckled old man behind him said, "Fellow Lu, this secret was discovered by my master on behalf of the king. It's absolutely true. How can it be wrong?"
"Since it was discovered by the king, then it can't be wrong."
The fat Daoist nodded, "Now that the eight kings are suppressing Yandang Pass, in order to prevent the royal family from escaping to other territories, we must destroy this wormhole …"
"What?"
The moment that was said, the other three were shocked. Someone said, "Fellow Wu, it's extremely difficult to build such an impulsive formation. Once it's destroyed, it'll completely cut off the connection between our northern region and the other regions."
"I can't care so much."
The fat Daoist's words flickered, "I heard that a few days ago, a demon suddenly appeared in the southern region. This demon wreaked havoc in the entire southern region and wiped out many great sects overnight …"
"Fellow Daoist Wu, is the demon you speak of a Corpse Monarch? It's said that this fellow has killed many powerhouses and even forced a Martial Saint to take action. Even so, it's difficult to stop him! "
Someone sucked in a breath of cold air.
