915 Beat Me on My Beautiful Face (1/2)

In half a month's time, the Southern Region had ended up in this state. The tens of thousands of soldiers were down to less than 50,000, the previous King of the Southern Region had died in the battle of the Sagely Mountain City, three out of the six Settlement Chief had died while the remaining three were severely injured. Only one out of the seven cities were left uninvaded.

How could Shan Yu escape?

Where could she escape to?

”To the Flame Capital City. Although the Great Xia did not send troops, My Lord is still the King of Great Xia, how could the Great Xia sit back and not do anything?”

”Yes, Your Highness, please start moving now, we will protect you with our lives on the route!”

”Please move now, Your Highness!”

The three Settlement Chief's hearts were bleeding as they looked at Shan Yu's expression. Nevertheless, they gritted their teeth and continued begging her after exchanging glazed with one another.

”Great Xia?” Shan Yu took a glance at the three Settlement Chief and the surrounding soldiers who were covered in blood, and clenched her fist slowly.

In fact, she had already sent a letter to ask for support to the Flame Capital City a month ago, however, till date, the Great Xia Dynasty has yet to send over any soldiers.

Shan Yu knew that it was not because of Great Xia's unwillingness, but rather because the unstable situation in Great Xia did not allow them to have the ability to send soldiers over to assist the Southern Region.

As for the royal bloodline that the three Settlement Chiefs mentioned about…

How would there be any royal bloodline if the Southern Region was gone?

”No, I will not leave!” Shan Yu shook her head.

”Your Highness, it will really be too late if you don't leave now. The Demon soldiers are reaching soon, by then, the Southern Region would really be doomed!”

”Please leave now, Your Highness, while the Demon soldiers are still a mile away, we can protect you and help you make your way to the Flame Capital City.”

”That's right, please take into consideration of the plight of the Southern Region, Your Highness!”

The three Settlement Chiefs understood the aspiration of Shan Yu. In over a year's time, under the rule of Shan Yu, the Southern Region had experienced a rare state of peace and prosperity.

After importing the plantation technology of the Great Xia Dynasty, the people of the Southern Region finally had a stable harvest and could fill their stomachs with the food they planted, and they no longer need to go out to hunt for food.

The people of the Southern Region also had smiles on their faces…

This was what Shan Yu had accomplished in the timespan of a year. She opened up the Southern Region, made use of the advantages of the outside world and accepted the tradition and culture of the Great Xia Dynasty.

However…

Things did not go as planned. A Great War destroyed the accomplishment of the Southern Region and everything was caused by a Monster named Lin Ji.

One and a half month ago, Lin Ji arrived at the Southern Region.

She stood at the front of the palace with her own capabilities. From that moment, the Southern Region realized that there was someone who was powerful enough to fight against 10,000 by herself.

Of course, Lin Ji was not powerful enough to kill the entire Southern Region on her own. After all, there were way too many soldiers in the Southern Region. Even if they had stood in front of Lin Ji and waited for her to kill them, she probably had to spend a year's time to do so.

However, Lin Ji brought up a term.

Offering, a first-class offering.

Shan Yu agreed because she had no other choices. The only thing she could do was to bring Lin Ji into the palace and order others to serve her.

However, that was the start of a nightmare.

Those who were sent to serve Lin Ji were killed if they did not get along well with her. Some of them died before even stepping into Lin Ji's room.

It took a mere three to five days before the palace ended up in state of mess.

Nobody dared to serve Lin Ji, but Lin Ji would begin a massacre in the palace the moment she did not see anyone. In this situation, the palace was in a mess.

Shan Yu knew that Lin Ji did this on purpose.

However, she had no choice and could only bear with it. She also asked someone to help her send a SOS signal to the Great Xia Dynasty. However, at this moment, news of the enemy came from the Nan Ling Settlement of the Blood Shadow City.

Both the internal and external security were being threatened.

Shan Yu was on the verge of devastation.

However, Lin Ji brought up the idea of taking over the troops of the Southern Region to defend against the Demon Race. She also forced Shan Yu to hand over the military power to her.

Both Shan Yu and the previous King of the Southern Region could not have possibly agreed.

However, Lin Ji was way too powerful. With a mere movement of her fingers, she could kill a powerful individual of the Rebirth state. How could the previous King of the Southern Region negotiate with her?

The outcome was obvious…

The previous King of the Southern Region died in the battle in the palace. Lin Ji managed to obtain the stamp of the King of the Southern Region and sent a letter to ask for assistance to the Nan Ling Settlement and Iron Hill Settlement.

Afterwards, the Sagely Mountain City, then the Nan Ling Settlement and Iron Hill Settlement were invaded.

”Your Highness!”

”Your Highness, please make a decision quickly!”

The three Settlement Chief desperately pleaded Shan Yu.

”No, stop talking. I won't leave. There are only Kings who die in a battle, not Kings who escape from a battle!” Shan Yu clenched her fist and sounded extremely determined.

After hearing this, the three Settlement Chiefs lowered their head and took a glance at each other. Then, the three of them clenched their teeth.

”My Lord, please forgive us for being disrespectful!”

”What… what do you guys want?! I won't leave, not over my dead body!” Shan Yu's expression changed drastically as the three Settlement Chiefs pounced on her.

However, it was too late. The three Settlement Chiefs' energy and the close distance between them caused Shan Yu to have no time to react.

”No, let go of me, I am the King of the Southern Region! How dare you guys! Mmm mmm…” Shan Yu wanted to struggle but her mouth was covered by a piece of animal skin.

”Your Highness we have to send you away no matter what. Even if you don't agree, we have to do so. If you want us to die together with you, you can struggle as much as you want to attract the attention of the Demon soldiers!” After subduing Shan Yu, the three Settlement Chiefs fell on their knees again.

Shan Yu froze as she stared at the three Settlement Chiefs kneeling in front of her. Then, she turned her head towards one side and stopped resisting.

”Send my orders, no matter what, defend for two hours before surrendering!”

”Yes!”
