Thirty miles...

For ordinary armies, thirty miles is the distance that can be covered in an hour's forced march.

What's more, the other side has an army of tens of thousands of practitioners.

Thirty miles is a distance that a cultivator, even one below the first level, can cover within twenty minutes.

In other words, the crisis is imminent!

Everyone's minds suddenly became tense.

Wen Tianyi knelt down directly: "Your Majesty, make plans early!"

"A son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall!"

Wang Zhaodong immediately said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead 5,000 Xuan Armored Warriors to cover your retreat. Your Majesty may leave first!"

"Ha! Are you going to force me to retreat with just two protectorates?"

"ridiculous!"

The Shadow King's face was serious: "They don't dare to break in!"

"It's just a show. If the Seven Protectorates really had that guts, they would have been the ones sitting on the throne thirty years ago, not the First Shadow King!"

"His Majesty……"

The Shadow King waved his hand: "No need to say more!"

"Wang Zhaodong, you are responsible for guarding the palace."

Wang Zhaodong knelt on one knee: "Yes!"

"Wen Tianyi!"

"I'm here!"

"Send an envoy immediately. Go meet Xue Chang'an and Li Chongming on my behalf and tell them that I am here, not hiding or avoiding them. They'd better take it easy. If they do, I can still tolerate them continuing to be the local tyrants."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for destroying them first without hesitation!"

Wen Tianyi accepted the order: "Yes!"

As Shadow King spoke these words, everyone present suddenly felt at ease again.

At least, Shadow King's performance at this time proves that Shadow King has everything under control.

Since it is under control, there will be no trouble!

Wait until Wen Tianyi and Wang Zhaodong leave.

The Shadow King turned around and looked at Zhou Buzhou, who was in a coma and exuding deathly aura.

He whispered, "Zhou Buzhou, stop pretending!"

"Your Spiritual Base has tricked the three Protectorate Generals into stepping out in order to save you. This is a way to die..."

Zhou Buzhou still didn't respond.

The Shadow King continued, "The three protectorates are trying to disrupt my rule?"

"ridiculous!"

"If I hadn't been concerned about the entanglement of interests and the supporters behind them, I could have overthrown the seven protectorates overnight!"

"And now, their rebellion has given me an excuse. When the time comes, if I take action against them again, the interests behind them will have nothing to say. And as the mastermind behind this, the entire clan of the Spiritual Base should be exterminated!"

"Think it over. If you continue to play dead, both the Spiritual Base and you will die. If you are willing to seek a way to survive, and if you are willing to seek a way to survive for the Spiritual Base, I am willing to talk to you!"

…

Is what he said true?

Zhou Buzhou closed his eyes tightly, full of doubts.

He was very worried that the other party was just trying to trick him.

After all, although you can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep, you can easily wake him up by making it impossible for him to pretend, such as by stabbing him.

At this moment, what Shadow King said was undoubtedly a stab in the back to Zhou Buzhou, making it impossible for Zhou Buzhou to pretend to sleep with peace of mind.

Of course, he can continue pretending to be asleep if he insists.

But it concerns the spiritual base and the foundation of his existence!

Zhou Buzhou suddenly opened his eyes.

The moment he opened his eyes, he quickly asked himself.

Is what he said true?

A number appeared in front of my right eye: 100%.

Zhou Buzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

If what the other party said was false, then he, who had been awakened by the trick, would be in an absolutely passive situation.

Since what the other party said is true, it means there is still room for maneuver.

Zhou Buzhou looked around with a vigilant look on his face.

His heart sank slightly.

Seventeen fourth-level shadow guards!

Plus the Shadow King himself.

There are eighteen fourth-level ones here!

There's really no way to escape this!

"Finally you stopped pretending."

The Shadow King's words came lightly, with a sense of confidence.

Is this the Shadow King?

Every gesture and movement exudes the aura of truly soaring into the sky.

He is indeed the true king, not a monster crawling out of the gutter!

Zhou Buzhou remained silent.

Shadow King, however, didn't take it seriously. Instead, he continued, "The Institute discovered the existence of the Demon King bloodline. After locating it, they located it in Xia Geng's corpse world. Then, based on various data, they eliminated them... and confirmed that the Demon King bloodline is in you!"

The bloodline of the demon king?

Zhou Buzhou's face was full of confusion.

The Shadow King continued, "So, I issued an edict, ordering ten thousand Xuanjia warriors to enter Xia Gengshi's world and bring you to me!"

"But Jianyue couldn't understand my painstaking efforts. She thought I was going to harm you. She threatened me that if I didn't send you back, she would let me know what it meant to have a fragrance that could permeate Chang'an..."

"Jianyue, this is really impressive!"

"In an instant, three of the seven great protectorates in the world submitted to his orders. With just one word, half of the country was shaken."

"I am so ashamed of myself!"

"But, if I get angry, the entire country will be shaken! The entire earth will be shaken!"

"The decision is up to you, and depends on whether you are Zhou Zhou or not!"

"If you and Gu Ruo had agreed earlier, everything that happened during this period could have been forgotten and treated as if it had never happened."

"If you can't reach an agreement with me, the Spiritual Department Base and the three wild dogs that showed their claws today will disappear into thin air!"

domineering!

The true king's dominance!
