Chapter 516 The Lost Year
After they returned to Shengtian City, they forced Ming Qingzhu back to the Luo family. With Hei Shuo's tricks, Ming Qingzhu told everything she knew, including her identity as a succubus and where her daughter Luo Li disappeared.
Luo Xiao and Luo Xiong were furious after learning some of the truth, but the identity of 'Ming Qingzhu' was also replaced by the succubus, and even the Ming family of the Caesar Empire was a victim. After all, Ming Qingzhu was once the only heir they chose and was given high hopes.
They don't even have a place to vent their emotions.
The Luo family could only send out a large number of people to search the places where the ancient secret realm had appeared.
A month passed and there was still no news about Luo Li, but the Tianyu Palace learned about her disappearance.
In fact, at the beginning, after Tianyu Palace discovered that Luo Li was missing, for some unknown reason it suddenly unilaterally attacked the Luo family and demanded that the Luo family hand over Luo Li.
However, at that time, it happened that Teacher Shi Heng broke through to the level of God King, and Shi Heng was protecting him. Although Emperor Mo did not support the Luo family openly, his actions were clearly towards the Luo family, so the Tianyu Palace did not dare to act against the Luo family easily.
The two sides were in a stalemate. Occasionally, there were some frictions between the Luo family's base outside and the Tianyu Palace, but there were basically no casualties.
But things suddenly changed about a month later.
Suddenly, the Tianyu Palace, which had been in a stalemate with the Luo family, suddenly attacked the Luo family's station on the Longyue border at night -
The night was as dark as ink, the stars were hidden, and the cold wind from the Longyue border was mixed with a murderous aura, whistling across every inch of the Luo family's residence.
Suddenly, several dazzling streaks of light streaked across the sky, like the scythe of the god of death, breaking the silence and heading straight for the Luo family’s residence.
Before the guards at the station could react, they saw dark shadows and the strong men of Tianyu Palace emerged from the night like ghosts. Their figures twisted at the edge of the moonlight, and every step was accompanied by a slight tremor in the space.
The leader was dressed in a black robe, with a faint green light flashing in his eyes, which showed the coldness and determination to catch his prey.
"Kill!" A low and cold command, like the verdict of the god of death. In an instant, the battle horn exploded in the night sky.
Flames, ice, and lightning intertwined to create a doomsday scene, enveloping the originally peaceful station.
Although the disciples of the Luo family were shocked, they remained calm and quickly gathered together, with swords flashing like weaving, and engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy.
The air was filled with a thick scent of blood and indomitable will, and every clash of weapons represented a desire and persistence for survival.
then……
Song Wanbai pressed his forehead, feeling somewhat reluctant, and said in a hoarse voice, "In the end, only two disciples escaped and passed the news to us."
Luo Li's eyes were cold and silent, and her fists clenched slightly. "Are they crazy?! How dare they brazenly attack the Luo family's important base!"
She exhaled and calmed herself down. "Since you're saying that, you must have already investigated the reason for the sudden change in Tianyu Palace, right?"
Song Wanbai nodded, stood up, took two steps forward, and lightly touched a point on the map with his fingertips. It was an area that was marked particularly prominently, shrouded in clouds and mist, as if hiding endless secrets.
"Ari, this is an ancient relic we recently discovered. It is said to contain the power to change the continent."
"We've recently discovered that all of this is related to a mysterious force that has suddenly emerged. They act in secret, have close ties with the Palace of Heavenly Mandate, and are targeting this lost land."
He sighed, "But they're guarding it so tightly that we can't tell what's inside. We haven't found any clues about this place."
Mu Ze pulled out a secret letter from the side and slowly unfolded it. The pattern drawn on it echoed the markings on the map. "Not only that, this force and the Palace of Heavenly Mandate have frequently attacked various empires, intending to collect a certain item scattered across the land. However, so far, they seem to have gained nothing."
"Our intelligence indicates that there may be an extremely powerful entity hidden behind them, and such a force has never existed on the continent before."
Song Wanbai's tone also revealed doubt. "It's as if they suddenly appeared on the mainland. As for their origin, we haven't found any clues for a whole six months."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, "So, Grandpa and the others are in Moyang City because Moyang City is considered
Song Wanbai nodded. "That's right. Aside from Lord Mo Di, the other four major families and the major forces of Shengtian City have also gone to the main cities around Longyue to garrison. Because Moyang City is the main location for the confrontation with Tianyu Palace, Grandpa Luo and his family volunteered to go to Shengtian City."
Mu Ze nodded and continued to explain to Luo Li, "That's right, except for the frequent fighting in Moyang City, the other cities are actually not in a bad situation. Compared to Longyue, Caesar and Beiming are the ones who are really miserable."
A trace of solemnity flashed across Luo Li's brows, and she moved her hands, "What do you mean?"
Song Wanbai sighed, "Among the four great empires, the Roth Empire surrendered directly to the attack on the Tianyu Palace. They then took over for the Tianyu Palace against the neighboring, weakened Beiming Empire."
"Although the Caesar Empire and we have sent a lot of reinforcements, we have only been able to control the situation in Beiming and prevent the Beiming Empire from being encroached upon by the Tianyu Palace and the Roth Empire."
"As for the Caesar Empire, although its situation is much better than that of the Beiming Empire, they only have one powerful Divine King who can control the situation, and they can't hold out for long."
"We have three Divine Kings in Longyue, which makes us the best place. Even so, attacks from Moyang City are very frequent, and we have suffered a lot."
Luo Li's eyes were as deep as the night sky. She bit her lower lip lightly and began to think about how to fight back.
The flickering candlelight around her stretched her figure out long, casting a shadow on the mottled wall, adding a sense of loneliness and determination.
Mu Ze slowly stood up, his voice filled with respect, "In the Caesar Empire, that one-armed God King once lived in seclusion in the mountains. When Caesar was in trouble, he stood up without hesitation."
"He stood atop an ancient castle on the border of the Caesar Empire, his silver hair like a waterfall, his eyes like torches. He held a cold, ancient sword in his hand, the tip of the sword pointing straight to the sky, as if he was determined to challenge the God King of the Tianyu Palace."
"His back, in the afterglow of the setting sun, looked particularly lonely and courageous, and every breath seemed to be accumulating enough power to shake the mountains and rivers."
"Around him, the soldiers of the Caesar Empire were ready for battle. Their eyes were filled with awe and determination. They vowed to follow this legendary hero to the death and protect the final peace of this land."
Luo Li blinked, "Aze, this is just like telling a story."
