"Yes, General Lu, the Wanfeng Dynasty's army has become so powerful. I'm afraid there are forces behind it that we can't imagine. We must investigate it as soon as possible before taking action to be safer."
"General Lu, the casualties of our Tianling Dynasty soldiers have exceeded 100,000. If this continues, I'm afraid the casualties will be even more severe. The best thing to do now is to retreat to the city and investigate thoroughly before taking action."
Hearing the words of his trusted subordinate, Lu Fan felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He gritted his teeth, stood up and spoke.
"Pass it on, retreat, and I'll report to His Majesty before making any plans!"
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, the two confidants walked down quickly. After they left, Lu Fan walked to the front of the tent. Looking at the battlefield where the fighting was still going on and his brothers who had suffered heavy losses, Lu Fan couldn't help but look in the direction of the imperial capital and spoke.
"Your Majesty, what exactly happened? Why haven't you received any reply in half a month? Could something have happened?"
"General Lu, what happened?"
At this moment, a voice came into Lu Fan's ears, causing Lu Fan to freeze slightly. When he turned around and saw the person behind him, he couldn't help but be startled.
"Who are you? Why are you pretending to be the crown prince of the Tianling Dynasty?"
Lu Fan drew his sword and looked at Zhang Tianhao warily. Zhang Tianhao was a little surprised when he heard that, but then he thought of the assassination attempt he had encountered a month ago, and his face suddenly became solemn.
He had already anticipated that the Wanfeng Dynasty might be going to war with their Tianling Dynasty.
After thinking about it, Zhang Tianhao continued.
"General Lu, I am really Zhang Tianhao. A month ago, I was attacked by three men from the Tianfeng Dynasty's Divine Arrow Battalion. It was my trusted aides who fought to the death that kept me alive."
When talking about the latter part, Zhang Tianhao couldn't help feeling a little lost.
Hearing this, Lu Fan's brows relaxed slightly. He often met with the prince, so he was naturally very familiar with his appearance. It was only because His Majesty and others had previously confirmed that the prince was dead, so Lu Fan questioned it the first time he saw Zhang Tianhao.
However, Lu Fan did not completely believe Zhang Tianhao now. After all, it was a wartime period, and he did not know whether this was a tactic of the Wanfeng Dynasty.
As the crown prince of the Tianling Dynasty, Zhang Tianhao naturally knew Lu Fan's concerns, so he spoke with a serious face.
"General Lu, to be honest, a month ago, when my life was on the line, I was lucky enough to be accepted into an immortal sect. That's why I survived. Otherwise, I would have passed away long ago."
"I came back this time to solve the big trouble of my Tianling Dynasty."
Upon hearing this, Lu Fan noticed that the aura of his own prince had long been different. Even he, a martial arts master, felt a vague sense of invisible oppression when standing in front of the prince.
Looking at the prince's side, there was a young man with a playful look on his face. Just when Lu Fan was about to say something, Cai Wankun, who was standing next to Zhang Tianhao, spoke with a serious face.
"Big Brother, why are you wasting your time talking to them? They illegally invaded, provoked chaos, and harmed the people. The Wanfeng Dynasty is a heinous crime. As a disciple of the Tiandi Sect, I naturally have the obligation to deal with this matter, so leave it to me!"
After Cai Wankun finished speaking, he disappeared from the tent with a whoosh. Seeing this scene, Lu Fan was stunned where he stood. After a long while, he looked at Zhang Tianhao tremblingly.
"Prince, this?"
"General Lu, I'm not talking nonsense. My junior brother's strength is more than enough to resist the Wanfeng Dynasty's army.
Also, what happened? How is Father now?"
Zhang Tianhao asked in a serious tone. Seeing this, Lu Fan no longer concealed anything and told him what had happened in the past month.
It turned out that the situation was not as Zhang Yu expected. Only half a month later, the Wanfeng Dynasty led a large army to directly attack the Tianling Dynasty.
In desperation, Zhang Yu could only order the army to counterattack, but he did not expect that the strength of the Wanfeng Dynasty's army was far beyond their imagination.
Each soldier of the Wanfeng Dynasty could fight ten enemies at once, which led to the Tianling Dynasty's continuous defeat even though the number of troops on both sides was similar.
By the end of half a month, the Tianling Dynasty had lost thousands of miles of territory, and the total number of casualties among soldiers was nearly 100,000.
Hearing this, Zhang Tianhao's expression became extremely gloomy. He had not expected that the Wanfeng Dynasty would be so cruel and would start a war directly without any confrontation.
Thinking of something, Lu Fan couldn't help but sigh and said.
"Your Highness, after learning of your death, His Majesty's hair turned white overnight. Therefore, Your Highness must return to the imperial court as soon as possible. Only by knowing that you are alive can His Majesty regain his spirits."
"General Lu, I understand, but the most urgent task is to repel the Wanfeng Dynasty first. Besides, I always feel that there is something else behind the Wanfeng Dynasty."
Zhang Tianhao felt solemn and said with a serious expression.
After all, the original strength of the Wanfeng Dynasty was similar to that of their Tianling Dynasty, but now every soldier of the Wanfeng Dynasty is able to fight ten enemies at once.
Moreover, this was achieved in a short period of time, which made Zhang Tianhao doubt in his heart that there might be immortal cultivators behind the Wanfeng Dynasty.
Hearing this, Lu Fan said in shock.
"Your Highness, do you suspect that there is an immortal behind the Wanfeng Dynasty?"
"That's not certain at the moment, so let's wait and see."
Zhang Tianhao shook his head and did not take the power behind the Wanfeng Dynasty seriously. After all, after witnessing the supreme power of his master, he clearly realized that the strength of his master was definitely not something that could be restrained by his own world.
Even a world bigger is not enough.
"Okay, let's go out first. My junior brother should have solved everything by now."
After Zhang Tianhao finished speaking, he turned and walked out of the tent. Seeing this, Lu Fan hurriedly followed him.
But when he saw the situation outside, Lu Fan froze. He saw Cai Wankun flying in the air outside, his figure as majestic as a god.
Then Cai Wankun waved his hand, and in an instant countless golden lights poured out from Cai Wankun's body and fell into the figures fighting on the battlefield. Any existence touched by the attack dissipated into ashes in an instant.
Lu Fan was worried about whether it would affect the soldiers of their Tianling Dynasty, but when he looked closely, he saw that all the figures hit by the golden light were soldiers of the Wanfeng Dynasty without exception.
With the joining of Cai Wankun, the situation suddenly became one-sided. In just a few seconds, all the soldiers of the Wanfeng Dynasty were killed by Cai Wankun, without even a chance to beg for mercy.
As for the soldiers of the Tianling Dynasty, they were stunned when they saw this scene, as if the pause button had been pressed.
