The next second...
"Urgent report—"
A guard stumbled and crawled into Tiansheng Palace, looking extremely nervous.
Upon seeing this, Li Xuanxiu's heart skipped a beat. He thought to himself, "No way, no way, I'm not going to be proven wrong again, am I?"
However, what you fear most is what happens.
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Palace fell at the hour of Chou this morning. Six hundred thousand followers of the God Worship Cult were scattered and fled by fifty thousand demon soldiers. Right Guard Li Hanyun was beheaded by Cao Chun, the vanguard of the demon race!"
Instantly, the entire hall erupted in chaos.
No one could believe the news they heard.
Even Li Xuanxiu firmly refused to believe it.
Last time it was also the hour of Chou (1-3 AM), and now it's the hour of Chou again?
What a coincidence!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
He laughed and waved loudly.
"How could a mere 50,000 demon soldiers possibly defeat the 600,000 troops inside Tianque Pass?"
Even with 600,000 pigs, it would take half a year to slaughter them. You're trying to fool me!
But what the messenger said next left him speechless.
"At noon last night, a small group of demon soldiers quietly infiltrated the pass and then dropped spirit energy bombs to create chaos."
The 600,000 followers were terrified and scattered in all directions, trampling and killing countless people.
Subsequently, small groups of demon soldiers infiltrated the pass, taking advantage of the chaos to open the gates, and 50,000 demon soldiers launched a surprise attack.
In the chaos of battle, Right Guard Li Hanyun was beheaded by the demon general Cao Chun. From then on, the followers of the God Worship Cult completely lost their command and had no choice but to flee towards the border.
According to statistics, as many as 300,000 cult members were captured and are currently being held inside the pass awaiting their fate. Furthermore, the demon army commander has sent over a gift.
As he spoke, the messenger took out a letter from his pocket and presented it to Luo Pianhong.
Luo Pianhong opened it and her eyes instantly curved into a smile.
The sign reads: "We've said it so many times, trust science!"
She decisively threw the letter at Li Xuanxiu's feet and asked in a deep voice, "Leader Li, how are you going to explain this? The enemy has even sent a letter of mockery to me!"
At this moment, Li Xuanxiu wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
The slap in the face was so succinct and resounding that he couldn't even react.
Damn it, what are these demon soldiers doing?
Why do I keep contradicting myself?
"Master Li, you'd better explain to me what exactly happened. Tianque Pass has been guarded by our Holy Dynasty's army for over a thousand years without any incident."
How come so many problems have arisen since it was handed over to your God-Worshipping Cult? I'll ask you one question: can you even defend Tianque Pass? Answer me!
Li Xuanxiu broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, please give me one last chance. This time, I will definitely wipe out this group of demon soldiers!"
"How can I still trust you? In less than five days, Tianque Pass has changed hands three times. If this gets out, my Tianque Holy Dynasty will become a laughing stock in the Nine Realms!"
"Your Majesty, this time, I will personally lead the charge and let those demon soldiers truly experience what real divine power is. Please wait and see!"
Luo Pianhong chuckled lightly, then softened his tone: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Leader Li. I'll be waiting here for your triumphant return."
Li Xuanxiu: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, this time, the God Worshiping Sect will definitely let the demon soldiers know what it means to be enraged!"
Luo Pianhong smiled enigmatically: "Hehe, then I'll wait here for Leader Li's triumphant return..."
Li Xuanxiu flicked his whisk and strode out of the main hall with a resolute expression.
It has the air of a hero going forth never to return.
