Over the past three days, many rumors have circulated in the city.
After a month of settling down, the matter of Su Nian and Qian Shudie's posthumous marriage took a turn.
Many people in the martial arts world began to defend Su Nian, saying that although she was infatuated, she had never betrayed the Nine Provinces and still cared about the human race.
Such voices have sparked a great deal of discussion. Now, Su Nian’s reputation as a half-step True Immortal has spread far and wide. Although he has betrayed the human race, many people still hope that he can repent and start anew.
But such understanding was quickly drowned out by condemnation.
Many people think Su Nian is shameless and a traitor to the human race!
Just as people were discussing Su Nian's matter, one wave subsided only for another to rise, and someone in the martial arts world actually started to expose the Human Emperor's dirty secrets!
The incident began when the Fifth and Sixth Elders of the Temple of the Blazing Sun arrested a remnant of the Cursed Demon Clan named Leng Heiyi on the human streets.
Under the relentless questioning of the two elders, Leng Heiyi revealed that the Human Emperor had colluded with the Cursed Demon Clan!
However, he was quickly taken into custody by the people of the Temple of the Sun and imprisoned in the dungeon.
The public was abuzz with discussion, and the news spread like wildfire throughout the land, planting a seed of doubt in the hearts of many.
In Seven Star City, the Emperor received a secret letter about Leng Heiyi. After a moment's thought, he ordered many disciples of the Emperor's Palace to control the news in the martial arts world and guide the people to shift their attention to the war between the two worlds.
The decisive battle between the two realms will take place in seven days, and the Human Emperor has no time to deal with these rumors circulating in the streets.
Three days later, the Emperor received a special secret letter.
He opened it and saw only four short words on it.
The news is true.
A smug smile appeared on the Emperor's lips.
He instructed his servants to summon the Grand Elder, and a moment later, the Grand Elder arrived at the room.
"Your Majesty, what brings you here?" the Grand Elder asked, puzzled.
The Human Emperor stretched out his hand and beckoned, "What about the Immortal Ancestor Token and the Hundred Spirit Pearl?"
The Grand Elder hesitated for a moment, then took out the Immortal Ancestor Token and the Hundred Spirit Pearl. "This is it. What is Your Majesty suddenly planning to do?"
"What for? Heh." The Human Emperor smiled smugly, waved his long sleeves, and collected the Immortal Ancestor Token and the Hundred Spirit Pearl in his hand before leaving gracefully. "To slay the traitors!"
Having said that, he strode out of the hall.
"Give orders to the three armies! Fully arm yourselves! All elites from all sects and factions, follow me out of the city gates to defend against the enemy! In this battle, we will annihilate the demon race!"
The elder understood, cupped his hands, and nodded.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After a long time, outside Seven Star City, the human army assembled.
Elites from all the sects of the Nine Provinces gathered here. Looking at the vast and armed Human Emperor's army, even though the Human Emperor hadn't said anything, they understood that he was about to get serious.
There was much discussion among the troops.
Many people are worried and afraid of Su Nian, this half-step True Immortal.
Before long, the Emperor ascended to the front of the battlefield, his gaze sweeping over the three armies. He slowly spoke, his voice penetrating and reaching the ears of everyone present.
"quiet!"
Everyone fell silent instantly, and tens of thousands of eyes turned to the Human Emperor.
The Emperor surveyed the vast army, his voice filled with majesty, "Heroes and warriors! Hear me speak!"
Everyone pricked up their ears, their gazes towards the Emperor filled with nothing but reverence.
"The demons are despicable! For thousands of years, they have coveted my land, devouring my flesh and blood! Causing my people to suffer immensely! Now! The demons are becoming increasingly rampant! They repeatedly invade the borders of my human race! Causing my people to suffer the grief of parents outliving their children! To save the people on the border! To free the people of the land from this misery! My heart is like an arrow! I will pierce the darkness with overwhelming force! To restore peace to the people of the land!"
The Emperor's gaze slowly swept over the tens of thousands of troops, and he said in a deep voice, "Previously, the enemy said that they would launch an attack on us in seven days. Are we just going to stand by and watch them attack in seven days?! We cultivators have always defied the heavens. What kind of scene haven't we seen? Is this life-or-death battle that will determine the future of the Nine Provinces and the Demon Realm going to be decided by others?"
The Emperor roared, "The glory of the Nine Provinces will forever remain in my heart! If we are defeated in this battle, we will die to prove our loyalty! Behind us lies Seven Star City! If Seven Star City falls, we will lose more than just a magnificent city! We will lose the hearts of millions of people across the Nine Provinces! Tell me! You!!"
The emperor shouted, "Do you have the confidence to annihilate the enemy?!"
"have!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone responded!
The deafening sound reverberated throughout the battlefield, igniting the passion of all the cultivators.
When tens of thousands of cultivators entered the battle preparation together, the boundless spiritual energy surged out like a flood!
The Emperor nodded with great satisfaction, then turned and left.
"Heroes who will soon be etched in history!" The Emperor turned around, his eyes filled with determination.
He said, word by word, "Come with me on this expedition, and let us write a glorious victory for the land of Kyushu!"
Subsequently, the Human Emperor led tens of thousands of cultivators and rushed towards the Demon Realm at an extremely fast speed!
The cultivators participating in this battle are at least at the Nascent Soul stage, representing nearly 80% of the cultivators in the entire Nine Provinces! Everyone understands that this decisive battle, regardless of victory or defeat, will undoubtedly be a world-changing event!
They arrived at the Demon Emperor's City in the Demon Realm at an extremely fast speed. When tens of thousands of cultivators flew here, the sky suddenly turned completely dark.
Today should have been just another ordinary day for the residents of Demon Emperor's City.
But when the countless cultivators swept in, they all stared blankly at the scene before them.
