Chapter 443 – Shocking Change In The Situation! (1/2)

Li Si was extraordinarily shocked. Compared to the Mortal Emperor Sword, he felt even greater shock from the appearance of the Mortal Emperor!

The Mortal Emperor had only appeared once during the prehistoric age a few tens of thousands of years ago, and only a total of three had appeared in the world. What was the Mortal Emperor? According to legend, the Mortal Emperor was the messenger of the world and managed the world on behalf of the heavens and the earth. This legend was based on facts because every single Mortal Emperor had united the entire continent!

All territories would submit once the Mortal Emperor Sword appears!

The appearance of the Mortal Emperor represented that the continent was about to be united. Because the seals and barriers throughout the various territories would cease to exist before the Mortal Emperor Sword!

Simply speaking, from that moment onward, all the residents of the various territories could travel freely between each other, and they wouldn’t be restricted by the barriers between territories!

“Now you know why the Origin School and those other sects have sided with my Exalted Han Empire, right!?” Situ Hai said coldly, “The Mortal Emperor is aware that your Grand Qin Empire would definitely not submit that easily, so he ordered us to give your empire a small lesson. Both of you see to possess pretty good strengths, are skilled at leading troops, and capable at managing an empire. If the two of you are willing to submit to the Mortal Emperor, then not only can you avoid death, the Mortal Emperor will even put both of you in important positions!”

“What a joke!” Bai Qi laughed coldly while he pointed his saber at Situ Hai and said, “You want us to surrender and betray our Emperor? How truly laughable! Allow me, Bai Qi, to experience exactly how formidable the Monarch Realm experts of the central territory are!” He swung his saber as soon as he finished speaking, and then a blood red glow that was over 100m wide and 300m long tore through s.p.a.ce as it slashed down towards Situ Hai!

“You’re courting death!” Situ Hai waved his palm, causing an enormous to flash into appearance and instantly slapped apart that blood red glow from Bai Qi!

Right at this moment, an enormous milky white glow flashed from the tip of the Ruler of Righteousness in Li Si’s hand, and it instantly arrived before Situ Hai. The latter’s expression changed slightly. He swiftly stomped s.p.a.ce with his right leg, causing it to instantly rumble and shatter into pieces while his figure immediately vanished from amidst the shattered apart rift in s.p.a.ce!

“You’re truly courting death! All of you’ll definitely perish once the Mortal Emperor leads the army into the southern territory!” Situ Hai’s voice resounded from afar.

Bai Qi and Li Si’s expressions were extremely solemn as they watched Situ Hai leave. Our Grand Qin Empire is truly in danger if the Exalted Han Empire has joined in!

Right at this moment, the s.p.a.ce in front of them was suddenly torn apart, and then a middle aged man who wore a robe embroidered with dragons had suddenly walked out from within the rift. It was exactly the Founding Emperor!

When they saw the Founding Emperor, Bai Qi and Li Si finally understood why Situ Hai had fled just now.

“Emperor!” Bai Qi and Li Si bowed.

The Founding Emperor waved his hand and said, “Unfortunately, I was a step too late. Otherwise, I’d have definitely killed that fellow!” As soon as he finished speaking, the Founding Emperor pondered deeply before he continued. “Withdraw the entire army to Olympia City that’s behind the great wall and use Olympia City as an outpost. After that, a.s.sume the Coiling Dragon Formation and stand on the defensive there!”

Bai Qi bowed to the Founding Emperor before he turned around and left to prepare.

Li Si pondered deeply for a moment and said, “What about the people in the cities outside the great wall?”

“Abandon them!” The Founding Emperor spoke decisively. “My empire doesn’t possess sufficient military strength, so it’s utterly unable to take care of all the cities. So long as Olympia City isn’t loss, then the army of that so-called Mortal Emperor would be unable to enter the core of my empire and cause lethal harm to my empire. As for the cities outside the great wall….”

The Founding Emperor pondered deeply for a moment before he said, “Issue the order for all profounders to retreat from these cities to Olympia City!”

“What about the commoners?”

“Their fate is up to the heavens!”

Li Si sighed lightly in his heart but didn’t speak another word. Because even more residents of the Grand Qin Empire would perish if they didn’t act in this way!

In next to no time, all the troops of the empire had retreated to Olympia City, and they’d gone from an offensive position to a defensive one!

At the same time, Yang Ye had arrived at the foot of Peony Peak in the Flower Palace.

Feng Yu had told him not to take revenge before she died, but how could he not avenge his mother? Yang Ye knew that his actions were very impulse and insensible, and he was really courting death by coming to the Flower Palace. However, he’d still done so. Feng Yu’s death had caused the killing intent in Yang Ye’s heart to rise to an extreme, and he would go mad if he didn’t kill!

One had to pa.s.s through the 12 peaks of the Flower Palace in order to arrive at Flower Hall, and these 12 peaks were a barrier that stood before the Flower Palace and was managed by 12 Exalt Realm experts of the Flower Palace. Only by pa.s.sing through these 12 peaks could one arrive at the main hall of the Flower Palace, Flower Hall.

At the foot of Peony Peak, Yang Ye held the ancient sheath in his left hand while Void Flash laid in his right palm, and the Ninth h.e.l.l Swordwings resided on his back.

“Mother, watch me from the heavens and see how I avenge you!” Yang Ye took a deep breath before he stepped onto the steps on the mountain, and he’d just done so when two Spirit Realm experts of the Flower Palace flashed down from Peony Peak!

“Who are you? This is the Flower Palace! Unrelated people….”

Yang Ye swung Void Flash, and then the voice of that female disciple had stopped abruptly. Because the blade of a sword had suddenly swept through her neck, and then her head flew into the air.
