Chapter 109: The Nations' Crusade against the Demon Emperor
Zhou An walked into the living room and sat down, with Hua Wu Yue, Zi Yan and the other two sitting beside him.
"The one who showed up this time wasn't the Ji Tian Sect Leader, but the physical body of the Red Blood Demon Lord. The attack on Linsha Pass is probably just a show." Zhou An frowned. It would be too difficult to get rid of this Ji Tian Sect Leader if he didn't show up and he used his clone every time.
"We still need to find out his true identity. Could it be that he is in Qianzhou?" Hua Wu Yue said.
"Since this attack was not the real purpose, it means that he did all this just to lure me over. He is doing something more important and is worried that I will interfere."
"This means that I know about this matter. If I don't stay in Linsha Pass, it will interfere with his plan." Zhou An frowned and said thoughtfully.
"Could it be that he has gone to the Gate to the Earth now? Isn't his purpose to open the Gate to the Earth?" Hua Wu Yue said.
Zhou An immediately took out the Drunken Taoist's wooden token and used some magic words to contact the other party.
Soon a mysterious mirror appeared in front of him, and a drunk Taoist was lying on a rock, drinking from a gourd.
Seeing Zhou An, Xiaoxiao said, "If you have good wine, send it over. I can't leave now."
Zhou An was in no mood to joke now, so he asked directly, "Is there anything wrong with the gate to the earth?"
The drunk Taoist was surprised and stood up to ask, "Why do you care about the gate to the earth? Is there any movement from the leader of Ji Tian? There is nothing unusual here."
"Okay, you should be more cautious over there. Master Ji Tian must have taken some action. I just want to confirm it. I'll send you some wine next time." Zhou An didn't have time to talk to him and just put away the wooden sign.
He immediately used the Mysterious Light Mirror spell to contact Shangguan Rong, and soon her shadow appeared in front of him. Zhou An immediately asked, "What happened in the palace?"
"Your Majesty, it's not the palace that's in trouble, but something big has happened in the Qianyuan Empire. This morning, the Canglong Empire, the Ice and Snow Empire, and the Southern Five Nations Alliance all launched an attack at the same time.
The Zhendong Army surrendered without a fight and helped the Canglong Empire attack us. Dongyang County fell in one day, and all the cities they passed through surrendered without a fight.
Although the Zhennan Army fought against the Five-Nation Alliance Army, the border was lost in just half a day. They retreated all the way and lost two cities in a row.
Only the Zhenbei Army is defending the border and fighting against the Ice and Snow Empire, and the battle is still ongoing.
I used the Xuan Guang Mirror to contact the emperor several times this morning, but there was no response. I asked Zi Yan, and they said that you had gone to Linggu and had not returned. I was worried that you were doing important things, so I took the initiative to ask the King of Ten Thousand Demons, Cai Yi, and Ajiu to lead the demon generals to deal with the Canglong Empire and the rebels.
Let Xiao Wu and You Ji lead the demon generals to support the Zhennan Army. They should have arrived by now, but they haven't reported back yet." Shangguan Rong said anxiously.
I heard that three parties were attacking at the same time. If we include this side, it would be equivalent to a joint attack by four countries.
Hua Wu Yue stood up and said immediately: "Your Majesty, all members of the demon army are dispatched. Only Shangguan Rong and the Four Immortals of the Sky in the palace are afraid that they will be attacked. I will go back to assist her."
Zhou An frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Hua Wu Yue, Zi Yan, Zi Qiong, Zi Xuan, you lead all the Purple Guards back to Qianjing and guard the palace.
Zi Yan, this Xiaoyue Peak's sect treasure, the top-grade fairy treasure Seven Treasures Glazed Lamp, is for you.
Ziqiong, this is the sect's treasure, the middle-grade immortal treasure Michen Shensha, I give it to you.
Zixuan, I'll give you this Shengtian Sword Sect's treasure, the top-grade immortal treasure Shengtian Sword.
You three should take it back and refine it as soon as possible. If the palace is attacked, you can fight back."
"Yes." The three of them took the treasures and flew away with Hua Wu Yue without any hesitation.
These were obtained this time when the masters who were controlled by the Red Blood Demonic Art were taken away, as well as the Taiyin Taiyang Immortal Wheel of the Zhengyi Sect and the treasures of the Soul Sect.
As soon as the four women left, Heitian, Jinpeng, Baiyan, Sai Naimu, and Zhou Di came in together. After paying their respects, Zhou Di was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, now that we have captured the generals of various countries in Huangzhou, plus the disciples of various factions, we can take this opportunity to take over the entire Huangzhou."
Hei Tian also said: "Yes, we can't get beaten in vain."
"The current situation in the Wasteland State requires a true leader to lead them through the rampage of voodoo. Now is the best time to let Sai Naimu become the queen of the Hundred Witches Nation, and then use this opportunity to unify the entire Wasteland State. After completely controlling all the countries in the Wasteland State, we can merge them into the Qianyuan Empire. Then the territory of Qianyuan will surpass that of our ancestors."
Zhou Di looked excited. Who doesn't want to make achievements as an official in the court? Expanding the territory is the best way to establish merit, which will surely be recorded in the history books and passed down for generations.
Zhou An raised his hand to let everyone sit down, and then said: "Now the Canglong Empire, the Ice and Snow Empire, and the Southern Five Nations Alliance are attacking us at the same time, and the Zhendong Army rebelled and counterattacked us. It should have been bought in advance.
Although the Zhennan Army is resisting, they have lost two cities in less than a day, so I am afraid that they will not be much better. Now the demon army has gone to support, and Qianjing is short of manpower. I am worried that someone will take the opportunity to attack Qianjing. Heitian, Jinpeng, you take the left prime minister and return to Qianjing immediately to assist the queen in defending Qianjing. "
"Yes, we will return to Qianjing immediately." They were all surprised when they heard this. The three of them immediately stood up and called their men back.
Zhou Di is alone, and he is also a post-natal warrior. If he goes back on horseback, it will take him a month to get there. But with Hei Hu and Jin Peng, he can arrive in half an hour.
Zhou An then said, "Sainaimu, what do you think of the left prime minister's opinion?"
Before Sai Naimu came, Zhou Di had said that she had already considered it, and immediately said: "I am willing to help the emperor unify the Desolate State. No one has been able to unify the Desolate State for a thousand years. It is too chaotic that each state is governed by its own rules. I am willing to do my part for the future of the people of the Desolate State."
"Okay, I promise you, I will treat everyone equally as long as they are citizens of the Qianyuan Empire, and I will definitely make the Desolate State prosperous when the time comes."
Zhou An smiled and nodded, then said: "Bai Yan, you stay with Sai Nai Mu, as the leader of Bai Wu Cult, assist Sai Nai Mu and guide her in her cultivation. When she succeeds, you will definitely benefit from it."
"Yes, I will do my best to assist Princess Sai Naimu." Baiyan replied hurriedly, secretly happy in his heart. He had long envied the King of Ten Thousand Demons for gaining merits that could cleanse the inner demons of the nine heavenly tribulations.
Hearing the title of princess, Zhou An remembered that he had not given Sai Naimu a title, and immediately said: "From now on, Sai Naimu is the Qianyuan Imperial Concubine. This Soul Sect's treasure, the Six Paths Imperial Soul Wheel, is for you to protect yourself. As an imperial consort, it is not decent for you to not have a magical treasure to protect yourself."
Zhou An handed the treasure to her. Sai Naimu took it with both hands, her face full of joy. The Six Paths Soul-Controlling Wheel is very famous in Huangzhou. Six divine souls are sealed inside it. It comes from ancient times and is very powerful. It can also devour the target's soul or spirit. It is extremely powerful.
Baiyan was shocked when he heard this. Could it be that every member of the Imperial Concubine Qianyuan had a magic treasure? That would be too improper. If every member of the Imperial Concubine Qianyuan had one, that would be too improper. How could others survive?
Of course, he was secretly surprised but did not show it. Although the immortal treasures were precious, as a demon saint-level being, he also had some, just not as many as Zhou An.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will go and recruit those prisoners of war now. With General Baiyan here, I will definitely be able to do it. But how should the Jietian Sect Leader deal with him?" Sai Naimu asked worriedly.
"You don't need to worry about the Jitian Sect. I will handle it." Zhou An said.
"I'm leaving." Sai Naimu was delighted to be given the title of imperial concubine, so naturally the title had to be changed.
After everyone left, Zhou An walked out of the hall. It was a mess outside and they were dealing with the corpses on the ground.
It has been about a year since he traveled to this world. Although he has become the emperor, this is the first time he has seen war with his own eyes. Looking at these soldiers who died in such tragic ways, he truly felt the cruelty of war.
The various tragedies and social injustices that we have seen on the Internet in the past are nothing compared to war.
In just one day, more than 100,000 people died here, and most of them had incomplete bodies, and even the bodies could not be found completely. When he was on Earth, such a thing would never have been imagined.
As he watched the soldiers silently carrying the remains of the body, Tang Yan and several generals happened to pass by. Seeing Zhou An, he immediately trotted over to salute and shouted, "Your Majesty, this place is messy, you should rest inside."
Zhou An smiled and said, "Do you really think I'm the little emperor?"
"Ah! I dare not." Tang Yan hurriedly knelt down.
Zhou An raised his hand, Zhen Yuan supported him and said with a smile: "No need to do that. This battle of Zhenxi Army changed my opinion. This Wanli Wind and Sand Flag is a mid-grade spiritual treasure, suitable for use in this yellow sand. I will give it to Zhenxi Army and let the commander use it."
Even in top sects like Zhengyi Sect, spiritual treasures are high-level treasures that only masters can possess. Among the younger generation, only outstanding disciples can possess lower-level spiritual treasures.
Not to mention the Divine Fire Sect, the only people in the sect who have magical treasures are the sect master and elders, and most of them are of low and medium quality.
Tang Yan was a general, so he had a lower-grade fire-type spiritual treasure. Seeing this middle-grade spiritual treasure specially suitable for military combat, he was naturally happy. He took it with both hands respectfully and shouted loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the gift."
Zhou An then flicked his sleeves, and twenty large boxes of silver appeared beside him. He said, "These will be used to appease the soldiers first, but you can always ask for them. Now I need to do something, so I will leave Linsha Pass to Tang Shuai for guarding."
Tang Yan and the general of the Tang family next to him were delighted to see the silver. They all bowed in response and watched Zhou An fly away with his escape light.
Seeing the current emperor, Tang Yan laughed loudly: "With such an emperor in Qianyuan, it will surely usher in a thousand years of prosperity. Our Tang family must follow and create great achievements."
What famous generals fear most is that the famous pearls are sealed up. Tang Yan had long given up on the original royal family and only guarded his own territory. Now, seeing Zhou An's ability and strength, he feels his heart rejuvenated, and his youthful dreams and passion have returned.
At this moment, Zhou An returned to the entrance of Linggu and saw that the barrier here had disappeared, all the trees in the Linggu had withered, and all the Ling people had disappeared.
