Chapter 1206: 1220 - Return

Chapter 1220, Return 

Ye Qingyu never would have thought that something like that would happen.  

Today he was forced into a desperate situation by the Sky Emperor, and the one who saved him was the Celestial Phoenix Maiden. The peerless heaven's prideling maiden, who had vanished after her farewell at Ren Puyang's office, had expressed her feelings in such a way. In truth, Ye Qingyu was not heartless, how would he not know about the Celestial Phoenix Maiden's feelings, but his situation wasn't too good, life and death were unpredictable for him, and Song Xiaojun had already occupied his heart. Thus, he had pretended to be clueless several times. 

He just didn’t think that the seemingly icy-cold Celestial Phoenix Maiden was so resolute and fiery inside, like an underground volcano. Usually one cannot feel the heat, but when it erupts, the heat of the raging flame was enough to drown the whole world. 

 “No matter what, I must save you.” 

Ye Qingyu secretly made a promise.  

“Brother Qingyu, let's get out of here first.” Song Xiaojun held onto Ye Qingyu with a concerned look, hoping to hurry back to help Ye Qingyu recover and restore his strength. 

Ye Qingyu nodded. 

……

……

The Unmoving City of Darkness. 

It had been three days since the battle of the Invaders ended. 

Blood-scarred military counselor Wang Jianru reorganized the destroyed armies and maintained the order of the Unmoving City of Darkness. However, in the seemingly calm city on the surface, there were in fact undercurrents surging. Great Elder Shen Lingzhi was constantly making little movements, tension was spreading, and not only the Unmoving City of Darkness, even the major areas across the entire one hundred fifty million kilometers of great wall were in a strange atmosphere.

And the four chief commanders of the border, who represent the will of the Guardian Royal City, also secretly revealed a strange stance. Some Guardian armies that were absolute loyal to the four chief commanders had quietly set out, arrived at the Unmoving City of Darkness, and secretly formed a siege. Their intention was obvious. 

And as one of the trusted aides of one of the four commander-in-chiefs Commander Yang, Deputy Commander Xie had been left in the Unmoving City of Darkness to provide support for Great Elder Shen Lingzhi. It was also the existence of this Deputy Commander that Wang Jianru had not managed to regain the right army's military power in this short period of time. 

Some of the senior military officers, who betrayed the Emperor of Darkness in the past, at this time, were also in a state of panic. They were constantly around the Great Elder Shen Lingzhi and Deputy Commander Xie to discuss countermeasures.

The news from Royal City was that there was indeed the birth of a new Emperor, which confirmed Lingyun's previous statement. It was clear that the new Emperor was standing on the side of the Emperor of Darkness. This news, to Shen Lingzhi and the others, was no less terrifying than a bolt of lightning from a clear sky. 

The only good news, however, was that the reinforcements which were supposed to have arrived at the great wall border under the orders of the new Emperor did not arrive as scheduled. According to the latest intelligence, the at least one million new forces was still a distance away from the great wall border and were moving at a slow pace. 

“I wonder what the battle in the starry battlefield is like now.” Shen Lingzhi was in suffering day and night. 

He was afraid of seeing the ruthless Emperor of Darkness appearing before him the moment he opened his eyes. After all, his action of restraining the right army from advancing was a complete betrayal to the Unmoving City of Darkness. He had utterly destroyed his prestige in the Unmoving City of Darkness. Many of the Sinners of the Unmoving City of Darkness had condemned his actions. This was equal to losing his foundation. If Song Xiaojun were to return at this time and rectify the forces, then there was absolutely no way he could continue to sit steadily in his position as an elder. 

Shen Lingzhi now eagerly hoped that the experts who were arranged by the Guardian city to kill Song Xiaojun would be successful. 

But in truth, it was incredibly difficult, because according to Lingyun's statement, the new Emperor had gone to rescue Song Xiaojun. In this world, what sort of matters can a Martial Emperor not solve? 

For the first two days, Shen Lingzhi had almost lost all hope. 

But on the third day, there were gradually some news that there may have been another change in the starry battlefield.

And the bitter-faced Deputy Commander Xie, after receiving a letter, his face was lit up again. 

“Haha, Elder Shen Lingzhi, don't worry. Whether it's Song Xiaojun or the new Emperor, they won’t come back.” Deputy Commander Xie laughed. “The new Emperor has no virtue and had committed brutal killings. The sovereigns in Royal City couldn’t stand this any longer. I received accurate information that Sovereign Skyreach and Sovereign Dark Feather, two old sovereigns, as well as another sovereign have gone to the starry battlefield to kill the new Emperor. The new Emperor and Song Xiaojun are most likely already buried in the starry sky.” 

“What? Is this true?” Shen Lingzhi was so ecstatic that even his beard trembled. 

This really was great news.  

“Haha, it is absolutely true. I have just received a letter from Commander Yang. This matter has already spread throughout Royal City. Haha, otherwise, why hasn’t the new Emperor returned after such a long time? And the new army of the New Emperor was fast as lightning in the beginning, but is moving so slow now and still hasn’t arrived. This explains everything,” Deputy Commander Xie said confidently.  

Shen Lingzhi, a ruthless and ambitious person, also couldn't help but dance with joy. “Great, this is great.” 

The haze and thunder that had been pressing down above his head these days, in this moment, finally dissipated completely.  

“We can act immediately now. We can start our operation against that woman Blood-scar.” Deputy Commander Xie grinned coldly. “When Commander Yang's army arrives they will be completely destroyed. From then on, the Unmoving City of Darkness will belong to Elder Shen Lingzhi.”

“Don't dare to, dont dare to, I certainly will follow the lead of Commander Yang and Commander Xie in the future.” Shen Lingzhi immediately expressed his loyalty. 

 A series of schemes and actions were arranged. 

After half an hour. 

There were suddenly burst of cries echoing all over the originally calm Unmoving City of Darkness, like stormy waves on a calm water surface. The war of fire was ignited, smoke filled the air, and the cries of killing sounded all of a sudden. 

The defender forces that were originally stationed in the city and said to maintain order, suddenly, without warning, launched a slaughter attack on the four battalions of the Unmoving City of Darkness. Many of the unguarded soldiers were immediately cut into minced meat.

Adding to this, the powerful generals of the Unmoving City of Darkness, who were just about to counterattack, were attacked from behind, or found that they had been poisoned and unable to function their yuan qi and were quickly beheaded. 

Cries rang out from all directions. 

“Ah, why?” 

“Why kill us?” 

“It's a rebellion, a shameless rebellion!” 

Countless officers and soldiers of the Unmoving City of Darkness that had only been recovering for less than three days, were attacked from behind by the Guardian army. Their blood dyed the camp red. Even till death they couldn’t believe that even if they had just repelled the attack of the Invaders, were physically and mentally exhausted, and had heard about the arrival of a new Emperor, and when they all thought the sufferings have passed, unexpectedly... 

The moment the unrest broke out, many of the soldiers of the Unmoving City of Darkness were killed in the despicable assassination. 

In particular, there were three battalion commander-level experts who were elites that had survived the Invaders battle, but still died an incomparably tragic death under Shen Lingzhi's scheming plot. 

“Why? I have bled for the camp, killed the Invaders, sustained numerous injuries, and did not take a step back, why kill me?” A battalion commander stared with wide-eyed disbelief before his death. 

The one who attacked him from behind was a Marquis of the Guardian camp who had been falsely complimenting him before. He wrenched the blood-stained butcher knife pierced into the battalion commander's body and answered coldly, “Because you are loyal to the wrong person!”

Similar tragedies were occurring across the Unmoving City of Darkness. 

By the time Wang Jianru received the news, the situation was already too chaotic. 

Even Lingyun also suffered an attack from behind, was seriously injured, but fortunately he reacted immediately and killed the attacker... 

After an hour. 

Yang Feng, one of the four commanders of the great wall border, had personally led an army of one hundred thousand elites, and with the cooperation of Deputy Commander Xie and Shen Lingzhi, had forced entry into the Unmoving City of Darkness. This was bad news for the four battalions of the Unmoving City of Darkness that were already in a critical state. 

The battle became more and more brutal.

Yang Feng had a satisfied sneer on his face.

All along, the several great Sinner tribes that were under the Unmoving City of Darkness were extremely difficult to control. The internal division of the Unmoving City of Darkness was even more like a piece of iron. The appointing and dismissing of the City Lords was something not even the Guardian camp could control. As for an outsider like Song Xiaojun becoming the Emperor of Darkness was something that the four chief commanders and Royal City could not accept.

Today, they planned to eradicate all the tough bones of the Unmoving City of Darkness, kill all the rebels, and take the Sinner tribes completely into their own hands.  

“Kill, kill all resisters with lawful authority, kill all Sinners once loyal to the Emperor of Darkness, kill them all. Do not leave even a chicken or a dog.” 

Yang Feng's mouth was curved in a cruel arc as he issued the order. 

After half an hour later. 

The war had come to an end. 

The experts and troops of the Unmoving City of Darkness that were loyal to Song Xiaojun had gathered together with great difficulty to guard the Divine Palace of Darkness. The surviving army after the battle of the Invaders had suffered another tremendous massacre. Around a third of the army was lost. However they were elites of elites after all and possessed frightening military strength. 

The strength of the Guardian forces simply could not match this power. Despite occupying the advantage in number and equipment, it was impossible to break into the Divine Palace of Darkness. 

The strength and tenacity of this surviving army was a shock to Yang Feng. At the same time he was even more determined to completely eradicate them. An army of Sinners absolutely cannot stay in the world. 

“Tell the group of esteemed masters to attack and kill all the Sinners in the Divine Palace of Darkness for me,” Yang Feng cruelly commanded. 

The true experts of the esteemed master army were all Quasi-emperor existences. In addition, there were at least one thousand elite generals being dispatched. The cooperation between the two forces, in the absence of a Martial Emperor, can be said to be an invincible force. 

A terrifying offensive soon broke out. 

The Divine Palace of Darkness was tottering. 

Wang Jianru, who had personally fought in the battle, was soaked in blood and her injuries were not minor at all. 

Watching the Divine Palace of Darkness about to be destroyed, it was at this time that a strange change took place. 

In the sky above the Unmoving City of Darkness, an extremely tyrannical aura, like a fiendgod had descended, suddenly appeared. An extremely rich and pure power of darkness was surging around, like the ocean, and then instantly enveloped the entire Unmoving City of Darkness. 

Two figures appeared in the void above.

One of them was graceful and beautiful, with long dark-red hair, standing on a giant bear of flames. To the soldiers of the Unmoving City of Darkness, this figure was too familiar. 

“The Emperor has returned!”  

A blood-soaked old soldier cheered out loud——
