Chapter 234 Internal strife
Behind the Little Miasma Ancestor, figures appeared one by one.
A young swordsman in black robes, carrying two swords on his back, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, resembled a drawn sword.
A middle-aged man in an official robe, with a kind face, was dripping blood from the scroll in his hand!
A lion, wielding a hammer, stood upright, its eyes filled with ferocity...
Every person who appears adds to the magnificence of the lotus.
The immense pressure made everyone below feel suffocated.
Every single person here is a sacred place!
boom!
The spiritual power of the ten Saint Realm beings rubbed and collided with each other, and surprisingly, another invisible flower bloomed on the lotus.
The void trembled, thunder roared, and even the heavens seemed unable to withstand it, letting out a wail.
Whoosh whoosh!
Tens of thousands of Divine Guards flew into the sky and stood at various array points in Qiandu.
The spiritual energy connected, and the protective array emitted a dazzling light, its strength increasing several times over.
The Imperial Observatory waved its command flag, causing mountains and seas to change, and the land of the nine provinces to twist and shift, transforming into the shape of a dragon facing the heavens.
The nation's destiny, like a tsunami, poured forth and swept towards Qiandu.
Even so, they still seemed insignificant in front of ten Saint Realm experts.
They were the strongest in the Heavenly Origin Realm; only those at the Saint Realm could harm them!
These people are like towering mountains, unmoved by winds from all directions!
Emperor Qian's eyes turned cold: "Xuanqing Sect, you really have sincerity."
Feng Xuan Yi chuckled: "It's best to be fully prepared before facing the Great Qian Dynasty."
"Are you satisfied with these ten sages?"
Throughout Qiandu, the aura of the four sacred realms emanated.
Meanwhile, from the north, west, and south, separated by hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and rivers, three sacred auras emanated.
Seven auras, some near and some far, collided with the lotus flowers on Qiandu, sparking flames brighter than the sun.
The people looked up in surprise: "Our Great Qian's guardian deity has made a move!"
"Invincible!"
"Haha, you think you can bully my Great Qian because there's no one here? Great Qian also has sages!"
Minister Li also looked up, gazing at the strange phenomena filling the sky.
Unlike ordinary people, he felt deeply powerless.
The Great Qian Dynasty is very powerful, boasting a total of seven Saint Realm experts, making it stand out from the crowd.
Military generals, when joining forces with government officials, can also challenge those of higher rank and take action against stronger opponents.
However, the Xuanqing Sect actually brought ten Saint Realm experts, which was an absolute numerical advantage!
One sage is enough to establish a country and found a school of thought.
It could even destroy a country!
The Xuanqing Sect dispatched seven people, one of whom was tasked with restraining a Great Qian Saint.
Even if we send two more people, it would be to tie down the army of Daqian.
The remaining person is enough to cause irreparable damage to the entire territory.
Why didn't anyone do this in the past? Because the Great Qian Dynasty would retaliate.
You can run away, but you can't hide. You destroy one of my cities, I will slaughter ten of your towns!
But now, the Xuanqing Sect is going all out for the imperial weapon and can't care about anything else.
Even if it angers the Great Qian Dynasty and triggers a thunderous counterattack, we are willing to do it!
Ten Saint Realm experts! There are ten of them!
If they all act together, these powerful individuals can still protect themselves.
But the country and its people would be destroyed!
Emperor Qian, with his hands behind his back, said, "Ten Saint Realm experts, that's incredibly sincere."
"To show my appreciation, please do me the honor of having a meal with me."
Feng Xuanyi chuckled: "There's no need for a meal. We all practice fasting and don't care for such mundane things."
"Emperor Qian, you'd better hand over the imperial weapon and that child quickly to avoid a bloody disaster!"
Emperor Qian's fist clenched involuntarily inside his wide sleeve.
These people are truly unafraid of war!
Xuanqing Sect did not have ten sages, so he went to seek reinforcements and find help to obtain these assistance.
Just like the destruction of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom sixty years ago, the Xuanqing Sect, though large, could not possibly be a match for the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.
It invited various nations to tear apart a colossal creature and make it its own feast.
Under normal circumstances, the Xuanqing Sect would neither need to nor would it seek to take action against the Great Qian.
But tempted by the imperial weapon, he had already gone all out.
Even if it means launching a thunderous counterattack after Daqian recovers its strength, it will not hesitate.
One imperial weapon is enough to establish ten divine kingdoms; are a few ancestral lands worth the sacrifice?
The intentions of this group are now very clear: if they can't reach an agreement, they'll resort to violence!
Emperor Qian glanced at the scene, his heart growing heavier.
Ten Saint Realm experts and seven from the Great Qian Dynasty—they are at a significant numerical disadvantage.
Once war breaks out, Qiandu will inevitably be turned into a sea of fire.
Thinking of this, Emperor Qian suddenly spoke: "Imperial weapon..."
Feng Xuanyi raised his eyebrows, his eyes filled with joy.
Even the mighty overlord of the Central Region must submit?
Emperor Qian declared firmly: "It's impossible to give it!"
Feng Xuanyi's joy vanished, replaced by a fierce look.
He leaned forward, as if he was about to do something.
Xiang Shuying quickly stopped her: "Uncle-Master Feng, wait..."
After listening, Feng Xuanyi's eyes showed dissatisfaction, but he still said, "Fine, then hand over Su Yun first!"
As the sect leader's disciple and the Holy Maiden of the Xuanqing Sect, her words carry weight.
She judged that the man was carrying a destiny, and if she could apply maximum pressure to make Daqian submit and hand him over, she could succeed.
The trip to Xuanqing Sect wasn't in vain.
Emperor Qian paused before speaking, his voice authoritative even without anger: "Su Yun..."
"We will never hand it over!"
Are you kidding? How could I possibly hand over such a treasure as Su Yun, a future pillar of society?
Moreover, that imperial weapon wasn't in the hands of the Great Qian Dynasty, but was used to suppress the Imperial Lotus.
But these things need not be said to outsiders; what is more important for Emperor Qian to know is something else entirely.
Even though the capital was lost and 90% of the land was shattered.
Su Yun must not be lost either!
Feng Xuan Yi's expression completely collapsed, his eyes filled with coldness. He snorted coldly, "Great Qian, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences."
He gave a mocking smile, waved his hand, and the nine Saint Realm experts behind him simultaneously unleashed their spiritual power.
The dazzling light, like exploding suns, shot into the sky with a roar.
The light intertwined and converged, so bright that it was blinding.
Even through the thick protective array, people felt a burning sensation on their bodies, as if they were being roasted by fire.
A real storm swept around, with sand and stones flying everywhere, mountains teetering on the brink of collapse, and jungles being pulverized, as if the end of the world had arrived.
The people were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, trembling and not daring to breathe.
Those cultivators who were observing the battle from the air coughed up blood and looked up at the sky in terror.
Once war breaks out, not a single one of the Qian generals will survive!
Emperor Qian stood firmly in the eye of the storm.
Despite the howling wind and the fluttering of his clothes, he didn't look disheveled at all.
He gazed calmly, his voice booming like a bell, echoing throughout the heavens and earth: "You want war."
"I will give you war!"
"The Great Qian Dynasty will not argue with petty villains!"
A thunderclap struck the hearts of everyone in Qiandu.
The people stood up, feeling a deep sense of pride.
The Divine Guards in the sky gripped their weapons tightly, their eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
The nation's destiny was awakened and amplified many times over.
Golden dragons emerged from the clouds, echoing the grand formation below.
They were eyeing it intently, trying to attack the lotus flower in the middle from both above and below.
That's right, this is the Great Qian Dynasty, where we are not threatened by petty villains!
People's fighting spirit was awakened, and pride returned to their hearts.
If you want to fight, then fight!
Feng Xuanyi laughed in anger: "Arrogant!"
"If you don't know what's good for you, then we'll find the imperial weapon ourselves!"
He picked up a talisman, its light flashing, and was about to activate a spell.
boom!
Suddenly, a violent explosion erupted within Qiandu.
Thick smoke billowed out immediately, and screams filled the air.
Feng Xuan Yi was taken aback: "You made a move?"
The Holy Realm beings shook their heads. This protective array, which gathers the nation's fortune, is not so easy to break through.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Feng Xuanyi suddenly sensed a completely new aura, an aura filled with hatred.
He exclaimed in surprise, "The Great Qian Dynasty is in turmoil!"
