Chapter 1090 (2/2)
One could foresee that their counter attack 10 years later would definitely be really vicious.
However, Wushang Yuan Demon probably predicted that he wouldn’t be able to remain in the Cloud World for long which was why he was unafraid.
He used Su Xiaoxiao to raise up such conditions such that he had no way to reject it at all.
To chase and kill the people who killed Great Gan civilians would use a lot of Great Gan strength.
To defeat Blood Saint Demon Lord who was half a step to End Realm within 30 years was also even tougher.
The army spread out and Zong Shou’s carriage headed towards Donglin under the protection of 30,000 iron cavalry.
With the huge victory, there definitely was a need for a huge ceremony for the return of the Ruler. On the one hand, it would spread the strength of the country and on the other, it would raise the hearts of the people.
Renbo had prepared for this for a long time. That stingy old man actually became generous and spent a lot on his ceremony.
Since half a month ago, he had been rushing him to return.
On the second day, good news spread from Kong Yao.
The five states in the south were calmed down and were now all under Great Gan.
However, Kong Yao’s army also stopped before that Hundred Victory Pass. Kong Yao probed several times but was forced back without any rewards.
They didn’t suffer many casualties but the Shi Family Head was a top general.
It wasn’t that good a place to defend but he made it such that there was no way through.
As for the river, that was even more impossible. The Great Shang navy was still really strong. After they chose to defend, even if Shi Ruolan was a talent there was nothing she could do.
The news spread across Great Shang.
“Zhongxuan didn’t die!”
At that point, Emperor Yuanchen had already returned to Great Shang. Some people personally saw someone who looked like him enter the Fenghua Palace.
His movement was really secretive and suspicious but some people managed to notice.
At this moment, Great Shang who was on the verge of collapse after the loss of 18 million troops managed to gain some stability.
Numerous people with nefarious intentions were looking for a way out.
Great Gan, which was now the top of the Cloud World, and looked like it was about to enter the mid plains, was the most suitable choice to join.
This allowed many Great Gan spies to easily stretch into the heart of Great Shang in just a dozen days.
The aristocrats in the mid plains didn’t even try to hide.
If he was willing, he could find out what kind of dresses Yinyu’s concubines wore.
“A large number of kids went missing west of the Imperial City? They were all born at first light, causing the city to be in chaos…”
Zong Shou was in a solemn mood. He didn’t need to think and he knew that the lives of those kids were most probably lost.
However, Demon Path techniques often used kids born at last light. There were very few cases where they used those at first light.
Such a large scale one was also rare.
He thought about it for a moment before he used a talisman to contact Zhang Huai. The latter also replied to him in half a day.
“It was said that when the Qin Emperor Tomb was formed, 2.4 million people were killed to keep a secret, it must be where Yin Power gathered. After thousands of years in the dark abyss, more vengeful energy gathered. The Yang Blood of kids, as long as one doesn’t exceed nine days, will be filled with Xiantian Energy which can chase evil away. This is just my guess and can’t be taken as the truth…”
Zong Shou frowned. Zhang Huai said that it was a guess but on his side he was really certain that Yinyu and Zhongxuan were going to open the tomb in advance.
He sighed and he could only laugh coldly in helplessness.
He wasn’t powerful enough to pity the people of other countries.
As a Ruler, how could he use demonic techniques to harm the lives of his own people? How could such an Emperor be wise?
What a joke!
However, even if Yinyu took those 12 copper men, then he had to take some precautions.
The third news came from the outer region. It was the Asura Race Chahou Hu, who hadn’t contacted him for a long time.
