Chapter 1162 - 605: The Imperial Court’s Furious Vengeance, Murder by Proxy!
Chapter 1162 - 605: The Imperial Court’s Furious Vengeance, Murder by Proxy!
If the Imperial City is besieged by the Dark Alien Race for a long time, the Imperial Court's control over other territories will only become weaker and weaker.
By then, how many more will dare, like Lu Yuan, to openly resist the will of the Imperial Court!
So they must resolve the siege of the Imperial City in the shortest possible time.
And the proposal by the feather-fan-wielding civil servant was precisely what the Great Flame Ancestor wanted.
It not only resolves the siege of the Imperial City but also aims to destroy Wuyou City in one fell swoop.
As for the life and death of the trillions of citizens within Wuyou City, what does it matter to him?
As soon as he thinks of it, he acts.
The Great Flame Ancestor wasted no time, immediately issuing orders and dispatching people to negotiate with the Dark Alien Race outside the city.
Though the Dark Alien Race is cruel and bloodthirsty, the upper echelons of the alien races possess intelligence not inferior to that of the Human Race.
After a long siege with no progress, they were well aware that they had no way of capturing the Great Yan Imperial City.
Upon hearing that the Great Flame Ancestor sent negotiators, both sides quickly agreed to the negotiations.
Soon after.
The endless Dark Army slowly retreated like a tide, then changed direction, marching southward.
They abandoned the Great Yan Imperial City and headed straight towards the direction of Wuyou City!
The spies left by major forces within the Imperial City naturally noticed the movement of the Dark Alien Race immediately.
Subsequently.
They quickly informed their respective forces of this news through the Simulation Space.
In no time.
Most of the King-Sealing Giants were alarmed by this, and they entered the Simulation Space to discuss.
"What is happening? The Dark Alien Race actually withdrew their troops?"
"Wasn't it said that the Dark Army fights fearlessly to the last man and would never retreat? Why are they suddenly abandoning their attack?"
"No, they're not abandoning, they seem to have just changed their target!"
"Looking at their marching route, it seems they're heading in the direction of the Southern Domain."
"Hasn't the Southern Domain Border already been conquered by the alien races? What are they going there for now?"
The many Kings were bewildered and confused, all at a loss.
"Wait! Southern Domain? Haven't you forgotten about Wuyou City?!"
Someone suddenly seemed to realize something and quickly spoke out.
A single stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Hearing this, the strong individuals of various major forces were shocked and finally understood why the Dark Alien Race suddenly withdrew their troops.
They were naturally not unfamiliar with Wuyou City.
Over the past century, Wuyou City has risen like a new star, bringing unparalleled shock to the outside world every once in a while.
Whether it's the explosive population growth and simulators or the unprecedented expansion speed of Wuyou City, they all were enough to refresh everyone's understanding.
It can be said that after so many years of development, Wuyou City has become a giant force, with even the Great Yan Court needing to treat it with caution!
Many old powers were envious of this juicy piece of meat that is Wuyou City, and tried every possible means to get a share of it.
Unfortunately.
Wuyou City possesses the Divine Level Trait [Undead Calamity], which can disregard any infiltration and bribery methods.
Plus, with Wuxin's diligent management, Wuyou City is run like an iron fortress.
Needles cannot penetrate it, and water cannot infiltrate it.
Even the Great Yan Royal Family cannot plant any spies inside Wuyou City.
Moreover, Wuyou City has multiple King-Sealing Giants, with top-tier combat power and a number of simulators that no other force can compare to.
So over the years, although the various major forces have been coveting Wuyou City, no one has been able to gain any control over it.
But now.
The alien army, which had besieged the Imperial City for years, suddenly changed direction and headed for the Southern Domain.
It's clear at once that they are targeting Wuyou City!
"What a clever use of borrowed power to kill. The Great Yan Royal Family intends to use the Dark Alien Race to solve the major threat that is Wuyou City!"
Who among the King-Sealing Giants isn't a crafty fox?
So, upon hearing this news, they instantly understood the intention of the Great Yan Royal Family.
"Wuyou City defied the edict, although wrong at first, those trillions of citizens are innocent."
"Does the Great Flame Ancestor intend to watch all the citizens be swallowed by the Dark Alien Race?"
"What do you know, the royal family has no kinship, which ruler who has held the throne isn't ruthless and unkind?"
"If it ensures the stability of the kingdom, what do a few sacrifices matter?"
Upon hearing this, everyone fell into silence.
They are all King-Sealing Giants, lords of their domains, and they naturally understand that for an emperor, nothing in the world is more important than the power in their hands.
And Lu Yuan, having defied the imperial power, must pay the price in blood.
In fact, if they were in the position of the Great Flame Ancestor, they might make the same choice!
"The Dark Alien Race is unbeatable, and there is a demigod-level among their ranks; it seems this time, Wuyou City is doomed."
"If I were the City Lord of Wuyou City, I would surely put aside all dignity and immediately plead with the Great Yan Royal Family."
"Perhaps the Great Flame Ancestor, considering they are both of the Human Race, might save Wuyou City."
"Not necessarily, the Dark Alien Race is not easily dealt with; if the Great Flame Ancestor spares Wuyou City, it will only bring more frenzied retaliation."
"Between the Imperial City and Wuyou City, which is more important, I assume you all know better than I do."
"Hiss! So, does that mean Wuyou City is facing certain death, with no chance of survival?"
"Correct, unless there's divine intervention, even if the Great Flame Ancestor steps in, Wuyou City can't be saved."
An old King-Sealing Giant shook his head, speaking in a grave tone.
Many King-Sealing Giants gasped, their faces turning somewhat unsightly.
Wuyou City is a super mega-city with a trillion-population, and there are tens of millions of simulators and dozens of King-Sealing Giants guarding it.
Yet, with such immense strength, they can only wait for doom, with not a glimmer of hope for survival?
If the Dark Army continues to attack other cities after capturing Wuyou City, what then?
Just the thought of such a scene fills all the King-Sealing Giants with a sense of helpless despair.
Though they are lords of their territories, with billions under their rule, genuine sovereigns in their own right.
However, in the face of the huge entity that is the Dark Alien Race, even these King-Sealing Giants are no different from ants!
Meanwhile.
As time progresses.
The news of the Dark Alien Race Army marching south spread swiftly across the entire Great Yan Empire like a storm, reaching many low-tier simulators.
And Sikong Xi, as the head of intelligence at the Night Watch Department branch, naturally learned of it immediately.
Night Watch Department branch.
A cold and aloof goddess with long hair draped over her shoulders sat at the head seat in the conference room, holding a weekly meeting.
But just then, a member of the intelligence department hurriedly pushed open the conference room door, reporting in with a pale face.
"Minister, something bad happened!"
"I just received the latest news that the Dark Alien Race Army has abandoned the attack on the Imperial City and changed their target to Wuyou City!"
"What did you say?"
Upon hearing this, Sikong Xi's face changed dramatically, as if an invisible hand clutched at her heart, stopping its beat.
"The Great Yan Imperial City and Wuyou City are separated by billions of miles, why would the Dark Alien Race suddenly change targets?"
"Explain this clearly, what exactly is going on."
And that staff member was also taking deep breaths, barely suppressing the shock in his heart before explaining all the intelligence he knew.
"Absurd! How dare the Great Yan Court privately negotiate with the Dark Alien Race?!"
"Using borrowed power to kill, fratricide, what is the Great Flame Ancestor thinking? Does he intend to lose his place as the common ruler of the world?!"
After hearing the whole story, Sikong Xi was both surprised and furious.
Finally, she could no longer control the enormous anger in her heart and slammed the conference table.
The next moment.
The entire conference table shattered into pieces, instantly turning to dust!
