"At a time like this, who would be in the mood for seclusion? The Empress of the Great Martial God Dynasty is about to fall?" Luo Yabai said.
The old man of the Heavenly Secrets was speechless: "What nonsense are you talking about? She's alive and well, how could she possibly perish? Even if I were to die, she wouldn't die."
Luo Yabai truthfully recounted the series of recent events.
After listening, the old man of the Heavenly Secrets frowned and said, "How could the empress, that fox, have fallen? She was definitely setting up a grand scheme to lure out those who were eyeing her covetously, so that she could catch them all in one fell swoop."
This woman is a legendary figure who transformed a small country into a divine dynasty, with countless empires and weak nations under her command. How could such a thing happen to her?
Seeing that Luo Yabai's expression was very serious.
"Let me ask you, from ancient times to the present, has anyone ever been punished by Heaven?" the old man of Heavenly Secrets asked.
“No,” said Luo Yabai.
"If there was no divine retribution, how could there be any fall? Don't you even use your brain? How could there be a fall?"
“I didn’t believe it at first, but it’s true. She really has a lot of bad luck. She’s constantly being struck by lightning. Wherever she is, misfortune seems to happen to her.”
The old man with the divination skills frowned and asked, "Have you calculated her divination?"
Luo Yabai said, "I can't figure it out, that's why I came to you."
The old man tried to cast a divination to predict her fortune in this matter. After a while, he felt a tightness in his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Master, are you alright?" Luo Yabai asked, her face full of worry.
The old man with the celestial secrets waved his hand, indicating that everything was fine, and said, "I can't figure it out..."
"Even you, Master, can't figure this out. Then this disciple will go to the Great Martial God Dynasty immediately to see if I can be of any help." Luo Yabai was very worried.
"Where are you going..."
The old man who knew the secrets hadn't finished speaking when he disappeared.
His face darkened.
It feels like my most talented disciple has been kidnapped by the people of the Great Martial God Dynasty.
Which woman is it?
Apart from the Heavenly Craft Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Strategy Immortal Sect.
The other nine members of the Ten Immortals Sect also received the news, listing a series of unfortunate events that had recently befallen the Empress, and then concluded that it was due to "heaven's jealousy."
The final conclusion was that the Empress was about to fall and the Great Martial Dynasty was about to disintegrate.
...
In the central hall of the Great Feng Dynasty, civil and military officials stood in rows on both sides, while several kings of different surnames were in the middle.
One of them was the King of Huainan.
They had been discussing the matter of the Empress for half a day, but the Prince of Huainan remained silent.
"What do you think of this matter?" The Emperor of Dafeng looked at him.
"Attack," said the King of Huainan.
"This matter is still undecided. What if it's just false information deliberately released by the Empress to lure people into a trap?" a minister said.
"I personally led the troops to attack."
The Emperor of Dafeng said, "But the name is not correct and the words are not proper."
The King of Huainan said, "The Princess Consort of Huainan went to the Great Martial Dynasty and has not returned yet. We can use this as a reason to send troops, saying that we are going to rescue the Princess Consort of Huainan. This is perfectly legitimate."
The fact that the Princess Consort of Huainan was the Ghost Princess Consort had spread throughout the land.
How can they pretend they don't know?
This reason is not sufficient.
The Emperor of Dafeng was no fool. He glanced at the assembled ministers and said:
"What do you all think?"
The result of the many ministers was that they did not fight.
What a load of crap.
It's not like the empress is dead. If she were dead, we could fight her, but she's still alive.
These ministers are all old foxes, experienced in too many battles.
There's no benefit in going into battle at this time.
It would be better not to fight at all.
If they're going to fight, they should wait until the Great Martial God Dynasty really descends into chaos. Then they can use the pretext of restoring order and saving the people from their suffering to wage war.
That's a legitimate reason.
As a result, the ministers kept rambling on and on, without getting to the point.
In the end, the matter was left unresolved.
The court session is adjourned.
...
In the Great Martial God Dynasty, in the far east, a Great Wall stretches for hundreds of millions of miles.
It is currently the largest man-made city wall in Dongsheng, spanning two-thirds of the Dongsheng area.
Such a colossal thing was forged from blood and tears.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the greatest miracle in the world.
On the city wall stood a weathered old man, gazing at the sea in front of him.
The old man had a square face, stood ramrod straight, had a furrowed brow, and piercing eyes; he didn't look like an old man at all.
He was dressed in loose robes, and the most striking feature was a long, rectangular scabbard on his back, which was longer than his own height.
He exuded a murderous aura, and many generals couldn't withstand his gaze.
"Prime Minister, something terrible has happened..." a subordinate rushed in to report.
"When did you panic?" The Prime Minister's expression remained unchanged. He had seen countless life and death events and witnessed the vicissitudes of life. Few things could stir his mind.
"Something has happened to the Empress."
"What did you say?" The old man's eyes narrowed immediately.
"Please read the letter."
The Prime Minister took the letter, opened it, and frowned deeply.
A sharp light shot from his eyes, and instantly, an overwhelming killing intent transformed into a vast ocean.
The subordinate couldn't take it anymore and knelt on the ground, his whole body covered in sweat.
"Prime Minister, I...I...I..." The subordinate couldn't hold on any longer and felt like he was suffocating.
Zhong Xiang then concealed his aura.
A moment later, Zhong Xiang looked towards the capital of the Great Martial God Dynasty, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times, tears streaming down his face.
Then, gritting his teeth, he gave the order.
"All troops, listen to my command: guard the sea area, beware of the void, and do not return. Anyone who disobeys will be executed."
...
The Great Martial Dynasty, the Divine Capital.
The Right Chancellor received the Left Chancellor's message a few days ago and is now on his way to the capital, where he hears the devastating news.
