Shi Xuan used his divine power to disrupt the order of the mortal realm, causing death and injury to the mortals. After receiving three bolts of heavenly lightning, his body became injured and he temporarily escaped back to the underworld.

Shi Xuan closed the door, no one could be seen, the Neither Prison Officer seemed to be busy with other matters, and in the past few days, he did not find anything wrong with the Neither Monarch.

The other deities of the underworld would never find trouble with him even if they had nothing to do.

Only Mo Zhu had doubts in his heart, he did not know what Neither Monarch big brother was busy with. Mo Zhu kept a close eye on Shi Xuan for the past few days. As long as he went to the mortal realm, she would definitely follow him and pay attention to him.

On the other side, the Prince Zhan reorganized the army.

Prince Zhan clenched his fists in secret. He had reported in late at night, and it had been a tough journey.

Although the Prince Zhan led an army of eighty thousand soldiers, more than eight thousand of them lost their fighting strength along the way …

The Prince Zhan clenched his fists again, ”If there's nothing else, we'll rush back to the border safe and sound.”

Although Zi Ye didn't understand why Prince Zhan was so trusting, he should be very confident in his calm demeanor.

”I guess this battle will be a tough one.” Zi Ye thought silently in his heart, the Prince Zhan led the army and set off from Shangjing City. Their journey was arduous and dangerous, and their journey was tiring to the point where by the time they arrived at the border, most of their soldiers were already exhausted.

However, the border rebellion had started on the spot, and with the help of a few countries outside the country, the combined efforts of several forces had produced a great deal of results.

However, Prince Zhan was not trying to comfort Zi Ye. He was sure that the immortal who came to cause trouble was injured by the divine lightning and had gone back to cultivate.

They probably wouldn't have the strength of heart to return in a short period of time. It would be enough time for them to rush to the border.

In the next few days, just as Prince Zhan had expected, the troops successfully made it to the border.

The Wen City had long been occupied by Xia Xiong. The Prince Zhan commanded his army to station themselves five kilometers away from the Wen City.

”Stop moving forward.” Stop moving forward. Hearing Prince Zhan's orders, Zi Ye gave the order.

Prince Zhan chose a flat piece of land for the army. This piece of land was leaning against the lake, it was empty, there were no cover around, and it was not easy to be surrounded and ambushed by the enemy.

After the Prince Zhan set up camp, there were no further movements.

However, they could not sit still any longer. According to the reports of the spies, the Prince Zhan only had eighty thousand people at most, but they had a total of one hundred and twenty thousand people.

Wencheng was initially established under the leadership of the Prince Zhan, hence it was easy to defend, but hard to attack. As long as the Prince Zhan attacked, his army would suffer heavy casualties.

Within a month, the Prince Zhan would be defeated. Xia Xiong even hung Old General Wen's head on the city wall, while the few loyal generals of the Prince Zhan hung their heads on both sides of Old General Wen.

Wen Guang watched from afar, his eyes red with anger, ”Father, your son is unfilial, he did not protect you well. Your son vows, I will definitely take Xia Xiong's head for myself, and avenge you!” After he finished speaking, Wen Guang knelt down with a ”plop”, and kowtowed three times towards the direction of Old General Wen's head.

Zi Ye couldn't bear to watch and turned his head away, not looking at Wen Guang.

Wen Guang arranged his emotions and entered the Prince Zhan's camp together with Zi Ye. He stood there respectfully, waiting for Prince Zhan's orders.

Prince Zhan glanced at Wen Guang indifferently, and saw that Wen Guang's eyes were a little red and swollen, as if she had just been crying.
