Chapter 694 Broken Dragon City (2/2)
After thoroughly testing the strength of the Great Zhou, King Wu would certainly make a move. After all, the participation of a Divine Dwelling expert would have a huge impact on the morale of both sides.
The generals and soldiers’ faces were clouded when they heard this and clearly felt great pressure.
The pressure brought by an expert of the Divine Dwelling stage in a war between Empires was far too tremendous.
One person was enough to destroy the city.
Zhou Qing closed his eyes and took a deep breath, “If King Wu appears, I will stop him.”
Wei Canglan’s expression changed slightly, “Your Majesty, there’s no need. If the situation really comes to the worst, you must leave! When there’s life, there’s hope!”
Hearing this, Zhou Qing smiled and waved his hands, “I have already escaped once back then.”
“I don't want to run away a second time.”
A resolute look rose in his eyes.
It was clear that he intended to fight to the end.
Wei Canglang could feel Zhou Qing's determination, and finally did not try to persuade him anymore. “I am willing to fight Your Majesty to the end!”
“We are willing to fight with Your Majesty to the end!”
The other generals roared one after another.
Zhou Qing smiled, nodded gently, and told them to prepare.
When the generals dispersed, he turned his head to look at the black-clad army opposite the Broken Dragon River. His fists clenched.
Hearing subtle footsteps coming from behind, Zhou Qing twisted his head back, “Queen, why did you come?”
The person who came was Zhou Yuan's mother, Qin Yu.
At this moment there was a smile on her pretty face as she spoke in a gentle voice, “This place is where the Great Zhou will battle against the Great Wu. If the Great Zhou lost, what would the difference be whether I’m in the palace or here?”
Zhou Qing looked at her, then said in a low voice: “My queen, I am useless.”
Qin Yu smiled, “Are you going to defend the Great Zhou here with your life?”
Zhou Qing was silent for a while before he said, “You want to stop me?”
Qin Yu shook her head, “I just want to tell Your Majesty that I will always be with you, whether we live or die.”
Zhou Qing stared at her in astonishment.
“Your Majesty, I didn’t stop you, so you also shouldn’t stop me, right?”
Zhou Qing knew that he couldn’t persuade her. He gave a bitter smile and pulled her into his arms, gently saying, “Then us husband and wife will defend the Great Zhou here at Broken Dragon City with our lives.”
Qin Yu gently nodded. Leaning on the arms of Zhou Qing, she looked at the endless army on the other side of the Broken Dragon River and smiled, “It’s good that Yuan’er isn’t here.”
“It's a shame that I can't watch him marry and have children.”
“Yaoyao is indeed a very good girl, but I don’t know whether our silly son will be so lucky.”
“There’s also Youwei. That girl likes Yuan’er so much, it’s heart-wrenching to see. Say, who will the future Yuan’er bring to visit us in our graves?”
Listening to Qin Yu whispering in his arms, Zhou Qing raised his head, tears welling in his eyes.
Dong!
On the opposite side of Broken Dragon River, the war drums were beating.
The huge army, like a giant monster, erupted with monstrous killing intent.
