“Your Majesty, the Alliance Headquarters is really sincere about working with you, but can you show us your sincerity?” The envoy said.
Liu Xuan was surprised, “Your Majesty, if Old Ancestor Su is not in Zuo City, we won’t have enough strength to invade. When that happens, we will gain a stranglehold over the Imperial Dynasty.”
Liu Xuan was extremely excited and didn’t expect that the hope for a rebellion was right in front of his eyes.
Too quick, it was just too quick.
As long as they succeeded, he would take loads of credit for it. In his words, he had a chance of becoming the prime minister, but he just needed more results.
If Liu Xuan knew that he was the first person King Wutong wanted to kill, he would have probably been so terrified that he would have fallen to the ground.
Damn!
What was going on?
His majesty wanted to revolt and I tried my best to help, so why am I the one who’s going to be killed?
King Wutong said, “Don’t worry, I have my own plans.”
The envoy smiled, “That is good, I will take my leave then.”
….
Imperial Dynasty.
The Emperor frowned. He felt really dejected. The situation had become really complicated and was totally different from before.
His brother was facing many difficulties, and based on the news that he received, many sects joined their side. The Alliance envoy also went to contact many other sects.
They were casting a huge net and if brother couldn’t grab hold of it, he might fall into the net himself.
“The calamity for the Imperial Dynasty has arrived.”
The Emperor kept silent for a long while before he hopelessly opened his mouth.
This was a situation that had no solution; he really had no way to solve this.
The Alliance attacks were getting stronger and stronger and it was uncertain whether or not the border could hold on.
The top sects weren’t doing anything. Maybe they were just watching the show and waiting for the opportunity.
As long as bad news spread from the border, like if the Alliance broke into another city, then the top sects would attack right away. They would directly occupy land and call themselves rulers. From then on, they would not be under anyone’s control anymore.
Their only hope was that the border would be able to hold off the Alliance.
As long as they did, then the sects wouldn’t dare to do anything.
….
“All you people really want them to invade and kill all of us?”
Old Ancestor Su was furious. He knew that these people weren’t from the Alliance and were experts from sects here.
It was obvious that the top sects came to an agreement with the Alliance and they were restricting him now.
They had already fought for many days.
They didn’t reveal any intentions of stopping at all, and if this continued, the situation would worsen.
“Old Ancestor Su, stop struggling and just give up. We will let you live on the account that we know one another.” One of the guys who hid his face spoke up.
Old Ancestor Su said, “If you have the balls, then show your face. Don’t say that we know one another, I don’t know who you are.”
“I can’t do that. Since you don’t know who we are, then we won’t let you find out. We prepared so much just to deal with you.” The guy laughed as he said.
His voice seemed to have been changed using some special methods, so one couldn’t tell who he was.
Old Ancestor Su frowned and he felt his head hurt. If there was only one of them he wouldn’t care at all, but with three joining hands and being so well prepared, it was a huge deal.
Someone had actually found his tracks, which meant that someone from the sects that he went to had betrayed him.
Forget it.
Since that was the case, then he would just fight. What was there to be afraid of?
A few days later.
“Damn! Damn! Damn!”
Lin Fan cursed out three times and he was stunned. He succeeded with the cannon and after some random clicks, he realized how to charge it.
There were many complicated buttons on it and he didn’t understand them at all.
He clicked each one of them and then suddenly a small board appeared with a hole in it.
He tilted his head to take a closer look.
It was round inside with many patterns.
It gave off a green light and a mark was imprinted on it.
He recognized that mark. The meaning was simple: to indicate danger.
Lin Fan eagerly carried it up the wall. He didn’t dare to experiment here because if any accidents happened, then everything would be finished.
“Young Master, where are you going?” Gou’zi asked.
Lin Fan said, “Don’t come over. Let me study this. I will tell you after I am done.”
He came to the wall and aimed it at the Alliance.
He took in a deep breath and was a bit nervous. He hoped that nothing problematic would happen later on.
He reached his hand in and a buzz spread out. The green light was even more eye-catching, and at the same time, something attached to his hand.
“Eh?”
Suddenly, Lin Fan’s body shook and there was a different feeling. It seemed to be absorbing his True Essence. The attraction force was really strong and quick. There was no pain at all like it touched some kind of nerve and actually caused the rate of True Essence loss to increase.
“This grey box represents energy?”
He didn’t understand, but a short while later, a small box lit up.
Ya!
He used strength and pulled his arm back. That box that lit up suddenly turned grey.
Along with the danger mark before, he understood what was going on. It meant that if one didn’t have enough energy, one could use True Essence to charge. But when he retracted his arm, the charged True Essence from before would disappear.
This meant that he had charged it for nothing.
“This thing seems to be custom made for me. However, they are sick in the head. One small box absorbed a third of my True Essence. How much True Essence would they need to fill the entire row? It would probably suck me dry.”
He thought about it.
He felt that it was quite normal.
Otherwise, one cannon shot wouldn’t have managed to kill so many Alliance experts on the battlefield.
He continued to stretch his hand in and it started to crazily absorb his True Essence.
The energy bar lit up once more and two boxes alone sucked all of his True Essence dry. However, there were still many more boxes. Probably, only a general would be able to provide enough.
After a long while, a beeping sound spread into his ear as the entire bar was filled.
“Terrifying. It absorbed at least 20 of my max True Essence. A normal person would have been sucked dry.” Lin Fan shook his head. No wonder the Alliance didn’t have so many of such weapons. It was really too tough to find the resources.
Now that the energy bar was full, it was time to test its strength.
He retracted his hand and started to play around with the weapon.
Which button would fire?
He looked around.
He found a fist-sized, red button. Logically speaking, that should have been it. It was definitely the one.
Pata!
Lin Fan didn’t sprout any nonsense, just pressing it right away.
Light gathered at the center of the tube. It became bigger and bigger and the particles around were pulled around.
Honglong!
There was a shocking explosion sound.
A stream of light shot out from the mouth of the cannon. It was extremely quick and shot forwards.
At the Alliance main camp.
There were a few guards smoking at the entrance, “General Mao Shentai from Maigu City is here. Are we going to fight again?”
“Eh, that is possible. Our situation is very unstable and there has been no progress. We also lost a few generals and suffered the largest losses. Why were we sent here? Just thinking about it fills me with regret.”
“I heard that people in Maigu City are eating and drinking well. Their lives are so good. It’s like nothing happened at all. But on our side…”
Before he even finished, he heard an explosion.
A streak of light shot right by them, leaving a semi-circular moat in the ground. It was extremely quick, and with a loud explosion, it blew up the area near them. A shockwave blew into them.
The guard’s mouth was agape and eyes opened wide as he looked on. The cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground and he was totally stunned.
“What is that?”
“I… I don’t know.”
He started to stammer and right away he pulled the alarm.
Zhu Daoshen was talking to Mao Shentai and when he heard the large explosion, he was so shocked that he started to sweat.
To Zhu Daoshen, they were on the verge of war. Any movement would terrify him. Maybe it was because he now had a sense of fear of those at You City.
“Eh? Let’s go take a look.” Mao Shentai said.
Very quickly, they walked out and noticed the looks of terror on the members of the camp. Although they didn’t know what happened, those people were just screaming in fear.
“The natives have attacked.”
“The natives have attacked. Be wary of the skies.”
To them, they were already extremely fearful of the sh*t rain and it had probably psychologically damaged them.
“This…” Zhu Daoshen looked at the circular moat that stretched for quite some distance. He was totally stunned.
“General, I saw a streak of light shoot over from the natives. It looks like the particle accelerator cannon’s energy blast.” The guard said.
He was so terrified that he peed himself.
He was even thinking that if the position of the blast shifted, wouldn’t…
God.
It was just so terrifying. Could someone just save them?
Zhu Daoshen looked into the distance in shock. Impossible, how did they know how to use the cannon? That was impossible.
Also without source stones to charge, one definitely wouldn’t have enough energy.
….
“Aiya, oh my god, this is so overbearing.” Lin Fan exclaimed. He didn’t know whether or not he struck the target, but the cannon was just so strong. One shot was enough to scare many people to death.
Anyway, since he was free, why not just fire it every day? Living such a life wouldn’t be bad.
He didn’t know whether the cannon shot destroyed the Alliance, but it wasn’t important. No matter what, as long as he fired, he would definitely strike the target.
He shifted the cannon toward another direction.
He continued to charge.
“Brother Zhu, what is going on?” Mao Shentai asked. He felt like the situation here was different from what he imagined and was even more complicated.
Zhu Daoshen said, “The natives stole the particle accelerator cannon and actually started using it. They don’t have source stones, so it should be impossible to charge. Also those buttons… how would they know?”
The moment he said this, a terrifying light struck them.
The target was the main camp.
Zhu Daoshen’s body was covered in a cold sweat. If the main camp was struck, that would be extremely catastrophic.
He ripped open space with his hand.
The space around seemed like a sheet of paper being ripped into two, forming many long void cracks.
The light entered the void dimension.
The terrifying power and the void clashed.
Zhu Daoshen was expressionless but he was bearing a lot of pressure.
Not long later, the light disappeared.
The crack sealed up once more.
This was the void control ability of people at Dao Realm level two. They could divert attacks. They would be under some pressure, but for people like Zhu Daoshen, it wasn’t much.
“How is that possible? Are the natives crazy?” Zhu Daoshen was shocked and filled with disbelief.
If this went on, they would be in trouble.
In the distance.
“What! There is no reaction at all?” Lin Fan was shocked. Just before, he saw the light from an explosion, but now there was nothing?
