“Let a Saint enter the might Lu Family? One can’t make such a joke. 40,000 years ago, our Lu Family started from nothing. We built ourselves up step by step. Only after numerous battles were we able to span across 800 worlds and have the Sky Burning Celestial Court. Fighting is in our bones. Are we going to let this Saint Ruler in and become a bunch of grass eating rabbits?”

The teen’s eyes gleamed coldly, filled with mocking intent.

“You underestimate Xuanhua Country Ruler and Xuanyue Country Ruler. The Lu Family pure blood has appeared. It’s such a bad situation; they were still able to turn things around such that half of the Country Rulers joined their side again. With the two of them working together, there is no chance for them to lose. Even Yanyuan Saint Venerable and Extreme Flame Saint Venerable couldn’t do anything about it. Lu Beiwu could suppress them in the past but he ignored politics for 20 years and has now been overpowered. This is why if our Ziyan Saint Hall needs to choose a side, we won’t choose Zong Shou…”

The man burst out laughing when he heard this. What connection was there between the Saint Ruler and rabbits eating grass?

Zong Shou was the Saint Ruler and he could also occupy 76 worlds in the outer region.

However, the Lu Family was overbearing when they did things and most of the Lu Family disciples didn’t hold Zong Shou in high regard. Most of them were annoyed by him.

They felt that the so-called Saint Ruler didn’t like walls. This was because, during their 10,000 years of fighting, the Lu Family had seen many so-called Saint Rulers.

He couldn’t be bothered arguing, only saying flatly, “Do what you want. I am not a Lu Family official and can’t command you. I will follow whatever you decide. However, if you are not the Hall Venerable anymore, then forgive me for not being able to follow your orders…”

Lu Family five Saint Halls, the other four had subordinates as Hall Heads.

Only the Ziyan Saint Hall was chosen from the Lu Family’s branch disciples. It was also the strongest out of all five Saint Halls.

However, this person didn’t fear the power of the Ziyan Hall Head. The latter laughed coldly and he didn’t have any other expression.

After the rough man finished, he smiled and asked, “Since the Cloud World natives can’t, then are you prepared to hope that the Night Demon Race can succeed? I don’t think so. After all, the crown prince has the 12 Copper Men. Along with the three factions of the Cloud World, he has great strength.”

“The Dark World Demon Court is stronger than the Taoist Faction and Confucian Faction of the Cloud World. Even if Zong Shou has the 12 Copper Men, he is still only a bit weaker. Even if they can’t win, they will be able to drag some time.”

The teen squinted and he gave out a knife-like gaze.

“At this moment, it is better the later he returns to the Sky Burning Saint Dynasty. If the Dark World Demon Court can do that, then I don’t mind helping them a little…”

The Night Demon Race was 27th out of all powers in this region and they were really strong. They were only 16 positions away from the Lu Family.

They used a fifth of their full strength, sending out nearly all their experts. If they couldn’t take down Tianfang World, they would at least be able to delay him by a few days…

Tianfang World was easy to defend. Zong Shu’s Great Gan wasn’t weak either. However, the Night Demon Race had dozens of times more troops. It was easy to form a standstill which was what he was happy to see.

“So, that’s the case!”

The man felt a little dejected, “However, Blood Moon Blade won’t be able to be reclaimed. Tianfang World is the last chance. It is so hard to take the food out of the mouths of the Night Demons. How are we going to explain when we go back?”

The teen was instantly speechless. After a while, he scoffed, “Xuanye Country Ruler will explain on your behalf and just say that you lost it while being careless. After you return, the Country Ruler will help you find a suitable God Weapon.”

Five Saint Halls didn’t have just one God Weapon. Normally, they had four to six of them, however, only the Saint Venerables used the strongest one.

The eight Country Rulers also had many God Treasures, ranging from three to eight.

The Sky Burning Saint Dynasty had 12, held by the 12 elders.

It wasn’t as strong as the five Hall Venerables, but was stronger than the other God Treasures.

Their strength was between End Realm and half a step End Realm.

Sixty God Treasures, that was the almighty power that the Lu Family gathered after conquering worlds for thousands of years.

The blood Moon Blade wasn’t outstanding among weapons. Xuanye Country Ruler was also one of the most powerful ones in the entire Lu Family.

To find a God Weapon similar to that for his subordinate was an easy matter.

“Then, I will thank Your Highness. I was also getting sick of that weapon.”

The rough man bowed without any sincerity. In his heart, he was guessing what the outcome of the Tianfang World battle would be.

The Lu Family was hiding in the currents while a storm was brewing. If one got swept in, one’s body would be torn to shreds.

※※※※

At the same time, in front of Hundred Victory Pass to the southeast of the Central Cloud Continent, Shi Qianli sat in his tent with an ugly expression on his face as he looked at a silver mirror.

Shiyue grasped the Xuan Peeking God Mirror, and apart from being able to see minute details, the other use was to spread information. Even if it were billions of miles away, it was still possible.

This was why they could find out whatever happened in the city 10,000 miles away.

At this moment, seven million troops were squeezing into the city not far away.

The strong city walls were covered in thousands of holes and marks. On the city walls, there weren’t many usable city defence weapons anymore. Most of the soldiers were injured too.

No matter how one looked at it, the city was about to fall without a question.

However, within the tent, all of Shi Qianli’s generals were ashen white and dejected. They didn’t feel happy at all.

Even Shi Qianli himself had an ugly expression, his face dark and sunken.

“Yue’er, is what you say true? Yinyu died and the 12 Copper Men fell to Zong Shou? Li Biexue was also suppressed by both Sword Sect and Common People’s Path?”

“How would I dare to lie to you!”

Shiyue, who was in the mirror, was slightly calmer. However, the gaze that flashed occasionally showed that he wasn’t so.

“Apart from that, Zhu Zi used the Jiuxuan Lightning to strike Zong Shou. In the end, it proved that he was kind. He was a Saint Ruler, so he wasn’t evil. Thus, his Dao foundations were destroyed and his cultivation was nearly wiped out. The 30,000 Confucians are all split. The Confucian Faction is falling and won’t be able to interfere in Cloud World matters for the next few decades. This news will probably be spread all around the Cloud World in just half a day.”

Shi Qianli was speechless. After a long while, he muttered, “How did this happen? How did this happen…”

Before the matter, he guessed that Zong Shou and Common People’s Path might get wiped out in the city. Or maybe they had ways to injure Yinyu…

However, he didn’t expect that Wushang Yuan Demon and Yinyu would lose so badly. Great Shang was wiped out and Li Biexue was suppressed. Even the entire Confucian Faction was weakening.

Zong Shou pretty much swept all of them!

In the tent, most of the generals had ashen white faces. They all knew how the situation was going to influence the world.

“Speaking of which, our Great Shang has already lost and Great Gan is already the overlord of the world?”

Shi Qianli frowned as he looked at the sky outside. Huoya Demon Lord still stood high above. 3,000 Fire Crows circled in the air opposite the broken pass. Time after time there were one or two that dove down, piercing through the city protecting spiritual formation and turning one or two soldiers on the walls to dust.

The millions of Great Shang soldiers below were all pumped up and prepared to siege once more.

Yuanchen Emperor promised that the person who captured Kong Yao would be promoted to Marquis. This was why the strong generals were all tempted and pumped up.

In front of the pass city, there were seven million troops. Only a third of them were from the Shi Family.

The other four million came from other provinces. The elites of which were recruited from the aristocratic families of the southwest.

Although Shiyue was the commander, because the Shang Emperor purposely restricted him, he was just the commander in name.

In the past, if his army had such morale, Shi Qianli would have been really happy.

As long as Yinyu didn’t find any problems with him, he didn’t mind giving the credit to someone else.

However, at this moment, he felt his heart turn cold. He found the entire situation really ironic.

“Yue’er, what do you think our Shi Family should choose?”

“Gan Emperor killed Yinyu and has sent out a decree to kill the emperor race children, killing all of them. Everyone who protected them will be killed too…”

When he said this, Shiyue’s expression became dark.

Great Shang was finished and there was no chance of it coming back. Even Shi Family didn’t have the power to go against Zong Shou, who had 12 Copper Men.

“Father actually knew what the Shi Family should decide, so why did you ask me?”

Shi Qianli sighed. He suddenly heard the unrestrained laughter from outside of the tent.

“Concubine Kong, have you thought about it? Do you really plan on dying with the city? Unfortunately, your husband was so stupid and actually dared to head to the imperial city. Maybe, he has already been turned to dust in the hands of Saint Venerable. So, what is the point of you defending this place? Why don’t you surrender? His Majesty will cherish you. In the back palace, you can still be a concubine…”

Usually when this person tried to provoke Kong Yao. At most, people would have felt annoyed but they didn’t really care.

However, now everyone in the tent was covered in a cold sweat.
