"Your Highness, that goddess is in Wuzhou."

Since listening to Yu San's words last time, Jin Mu sent people to Wuzhou to inquire, and indeed, Wuzhou had experienced several heavy rains.

"The capital is thousands of kilometers away from Wuzhou, which is at least half a month away. It's too late. The defeat in Wuzhou is inevitable."

Kaneki lowered his eyes. "I will inquire further. She is a goddess; she wouldn't have died so easily, would she?"

"Your Highness—!"

Suddenly, a man rushed in from outside, shouting in a panic, "Rousseau's 200,000-strong army has entered the capital!"

"What?" Sui Jin propped himself up, veins bulging on his forehead. "Where is the Emperor? Where are the Imperial Guards in the capital?"

“The Emperor…the Emperor…” The man was sweating profusely, gritting his teeth and closing his eyes as he said, “The Emperor escaped last night under the protection of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Now there is only the Empress Dowager and the twelve concubines in the palace. Rousseau’s army is invading, and there is no one in the palace to stop them.”

"He escaped?" Kaneki's lips twitched violently. "Where did the emperor get this information? He's probably the first emperor in history to flee before even fighting!"

Upon hearing this news, Sui Jin coughed violently. "What about the people? Didn't he inform the people when he ran away? Did Rousseau kill people along the way?"

"Along the way, countless people died or were injured. Rousseau closed the city gates, and the people could not escape and could only be killed."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the sounds of endless fighting reached his ears, and the screams and cries of the people were like a long thorn piercing his chest.

Sui Jin choked on blood as he struggled to sit up. "Order the Golden Cavalry to protect the people. Break open the city gates, and once all the people have escaped, close the gates and kill them!"
