121: The evil infant man, the owner of Yanyu Tower?
The three Old Ancestors of the Zhanling Dynasty had solemn expressions.
They had never expected things to develop to such a state.
The Great Xia Dynasty possessed Saints, and not just one, but two!
This was simply unbelievable!
A dynasty that was on a decline had suddenly transformed into a top-tier imperial power.
And unfortunately, the relationship between their two Imperial Dynasties had deteriorated to a point where it could not be mended.
“Two Saints, even if our Zhanling Dynasty gave its all, we are no match.”
“This situation… is almost a dead end.”
“At this point, we can only activate the Tinder Plan,” one Old Ancestor said with a grim face, sighing deeply.
“This is the foundation built by our ancestors over thousands of years!”
“How can we just abandon it?!”
“While the Tinder Plan can preserve a portion of the Imperial Family Bloodline, it means living in hidden obscurity from now on!”
“Such humiliation is worse than dying in battle!” another Old Ancestor strongly disagreed.
In his view, the descendants of the Zhanling Imperial Family would rather die standing than live kneeling!
Qin Wu, hearing this, also couldn't help but say, “Abandoning the entire Imperial Dynasty’s territory and letting the Imperial Family members flee.”
“This act will forever be nailed to the pillar of historical shame!”
“Even if the Zhanling Dynasty rises again in the future, this dark history cannot be erased.”
As the current Emperor of the Zhanling Dynasty, Qin Wu was also unwilling to simply flee.
Once they chose to run without resistance, they would forever be looked down upon by other Imperial Dynasties in the history of the Hundred Dynasty Land.
Even the former Yuanming Dynasty, when faced with the combined encirclement of the Ten Great Dynasties, its contemporary Emperor and the Imperial Dynasty's Old Ancestors all fought to the very end, preserving the integrity and dignity of their Yuanming Imperial Family.
“If we don’t even have our lives, what good is reputation?” the first Old Ancestor said again.
Seeing them arguing incessantly, the Old Ancestor in the very middle, the most senior in rank, interrupted them, “Enough!!!”
“Stop arguing.”
“We cannot retreat, but the Tinder Plan must still be carried out.”
“Qin Wu, gather all the young generation of the Imperial Family and have the death warriors lead them to escape.”
“As for the rest, everyone gather in the Imperial City!”
“Let us gather all the strength of our Imperial Dynasty, and with the grand formation left by our ancestors, even against a Saint, we shall fight!”
After this Old Ancestor spoke, the others did not object.
Let the younger generation escape, while these old fellows stay behind to fight to the death!
Even when facing a Saint, they would give their all and certainly bite off a piece of their flesh!
“Yes!”
Qin Wu’s eyes were slightly red as he responded with solemn gravity.
… … … … …
Subsequently, he immediately arranged for the Tinder Plan to be put into motion.
Death warriors raised by the Zhanling Imperial Family would lead the younger generation of the Imperial Dynasty, along with many important treasures, to flee the Zhanling Dynasty.
By Imperial decree, he summoned the Sect powerhouses of the entire Zhanling Dynasty to rush to the Imperial City at the first opportunity, preparing to fight alongside the Imperial Family’s powerhouses against the Great Xia Dynasty’s army!
… … … … …
Thousand Joy Dynasty.
At this moment, within the Imperial Palace of the Thousand Joy Dynasty.
Emperor Ouyang Cai of the Thousand Joy Dynasty, along with several Old Ancestors and Clan Elders of the Qianle Imperial Family, all stood trembling in a secret chamber.
Above them sat a demonic man in a loose red robe, with long, slender fingers and handsome bone structure.
His entire being exuded an extremely dense Evil Infant Qi, as if it could devour the entire Imperial City in an instant.
This person's identity was precisely the Saint King Realm Evil Infant that Plague Knight had mentioned.
“Has the identity of the fleeing person been discovered?” the red-robed Evil Infant asked, his voice slightly cold.
“Reporting to Master, currently… it has not been found.”
“But please rest assured, Master, I have dispatched all my scouts, and I believe there will be news soon,” the Emperor of the Thousand Joy Dynasty replied cautiously.
“Useless!”
“You still haven’t found them by now, what good are you to me?!” the Evil Infant man glanced at him.
The latter’s expression changed drastically!
Thud!
In his urgency, Ouyang Cai immediately knelt on the ground: “Please spare me, Master!”
“I have already done my best to have people search; as soon as there is news, I will definitely inform Master immediately!”
The Evil Infant man said indifferently, “A Saint has escaped. My presence here probably won’t be concealed for long.”
“Since that’s the case, the plan will be moved forward.”
“You, feed all the living beings from the remaining ten prefectures to the ‘Infant’.”
“If you delay my time, all of you shall die.”
The Qianle Imperial Family members hastily responded, “Yes!”
… … … … …
After the Evil Infant man finished giving his orders, he left the Imperial Palace and swaggered into the Misty Rain Tower in Qianle Imperial City.
“Greetings, Pavilion Master!”
The Elders and Disciples of Misty Rain Tower all hastily bowed upon seeing the Evil Infant man.
The Evil Infant man nodded and commanded an Elder, “Have Si Xingyun come see me.”
“Yes, Pavilion Master.”
“I will immediately send a message to Protector Si,” the Elder replied.
PS: I was called out to drink in the middle of the night yesterday and only went to bed at 6 AM, so today’s update is a bit late.
