Chapter 2647 - 2650: Revolt! The Roar of One Million Ants!

The Eighth Prince's order actually equated to publicly sentencing those millions of Martial Artists to death!

No matter what, it was a death sentence.

How should one choose?

"Are you all fools? Just being commanded by him to send yourselves to die like this?"

Suddenly, a voice emerged from within the crowd.

The words struck a chord deep within everyone's hearts.

Many didn't recognize the young man shouting, but they knew he was strong.

They seemed to have found their backbone.

With someone leading, they dared to do things they normally wouldn't.

"That Eighth Prince treats you like livestock, driving you to your deaths, and you really are willing?

Rebelling might also mean death, but at least you'd die with dignity!

If you don't rebel, you'll also die, and it will be without any dignity!

We are millions; even if we can't kill all of them, we can still bury a few alongside us, right?

We need to make the Chen Royal Family aware that we, the lower-tier Martial Artists, aren't easy to bully!"

The young man's roar echoed across the wilderness, clear to the ears of every million.

"What a joke! Not even daring to say your name, would anyone believe your words?"

The Eighth Prince gave the shouting young man a cold glance, finding him familiar but unable to recall who he was.

The Million Dare-to-Die Army looked at this young man, eager to know who he was.

If unclear individuals were stirring from behind, they wouldn't be fooled.

"Everyone listen up, my name is Ling Yan! The son of the former Ling Junhou!

Ling Junhou fought bravely for years to maintain peace at the Chen Dynasty's borders, often not seeing his wife and son for long periods.

Yet, he was executed by the Chen Royal Family on charges of betrayal!

It wasn't enough to eliminate ten clans; they even killed friends of the Ling Family.

That day, Chen Dynasty's Thunder City almost became a living Hell!

I survived because I refused to resign!

Ling Junhou ended up like this; don't you people understand? Your fate will be even more tragic than his.

They treat their citizens like ruthless enemies, with cold indifference!"

Ling Yan's voice rang out once more: "You may choose not to listen to me and follow their orders, but I can guarantee you this: your kin and friends, even if they survive, will be dragged away to become government slaves!

Your wives and daughters might even be sold to brothels, forced into servitude as government courtesans!

Weakness only makes them more rampant.

But rebellion can make them wary."

"Well said!"

Finally, someone began to respond to Ling Yan's call: "I fled from Thunder City to Eight Immortals County City.

My daughter was tainted by this Eighth Prince; I never wanted to mention such disgrace.

I only wished to quietly accompany my now half-insane daughter for the rest of my life.

But even after hiding in a deserted village, he found us.

Not only did he kill my daughter, he forced me into the Dare-to-Die Army, to risk my life for him!"

"Inhumane!"

"The despicable Royal Family treats us like we're not even human!"

"We will fight! We're millions strong, why should we fear their mere thousands?"

Once stirred, such a mass would form a terrifying storm of anger.

For their wives and daughters not to be ravaged.

For death to come with dignity, like a true man.

These people intended to revolt!

Dead either way, one might as well die with dignity, die grandly.

Ling Yan had become their leader.

Because he was strong enough and because he knew no fear.

All the Dare-to-Die Army shifted their direction towards the Eighth Prince's thousands.

Ling Yan stood at the forefront, staring at them.

This time he came here to kill the Eighth Prince to avenge his kin.

Moreover, he wanted to help Ling Xiao protect Eight Immortals County City.

If these millions truly rushed at Eight Immortals County City, even the strongest Array Formation might be filled with corpses.

The Eighth Prince's men would naturally break through.

No matter the reason, he could not retreat.

"Kill—!"

Ling Yan shouted loudly.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The unified sound behind him rose, akin to the thunderous roar of the heavens.

"A crowd of ants dares to rebel, if they wish to die, kill them for me, first eliminate the leader, this Prince will see if they still have the guts to continue rebelling."

The Eighth Prince didn't want to turn completely hostile with the millions of Dare-to-Die Army.

After all, even ants, millions of them, would be terrifying.

Moreover, they were Martial Artists.

He wanted to use these Dare-to-Die Army to attack Eight Immortals County City, whether these people died or his men did, it would be regrettable.

Thus he aimed to capture the ringleader first.

He believed that killing Ling Yan would disperse these people without a fight.

Just a motley crowd, could they form any great momentum?

War finally erupted.

The Million Dare-to-Die Army swarmed towards the Eighth Prince's thousands of experts.

Battle commenced on the wilderness.

Meanwhile, on the city tower of Eight Immortals County City, Wise and Virtuous King Edward Chen Endless sat watching the battlefield indifferently.

"Wise King, let's join the battle, that Ling Yan is the Lord's brother, we can't just stand by and watch."

The speaker was Water Elder, the current Deputy City Lord of Eight Immortals County City.

Ling Xiao's people only operate in the shadows, while Eight Immortals County City is outwardly led by Water Elder, with help from Martial Artists intimated by Ling Xiao.

But frankly, those under Ling Xiao's control by Poison Pill dare not act recklessly.

Things changed with the arrival of Wise and Virtuous King.

He somehow acquired a cure for the Poison Pill, saving those people.

Including a part of the original Eight Immortals Mountain, nearly all the Martial Artists of the original Tianfeng Group, and most from the original Royal Mansion.

With these individuals, the Wise and Virtuous King easily entered Eight Immortals County City and sidelined Water Elder and others.

At this time, Wise and Virtuous King's men had already begun the purge within Eight Immortals County City.

The plan was to eliminate all loyal to Ling Xiao.

Edward Chen had thought it over; merely relying on normal interaction was unable to melt Yue Fanghua, the Ice Mountain.

Unless Ling Xiao abandoned Yue Fanghua and became his dog.

And what he envisioned naturally involved threats.

Taking Ling Xiao's friends and family in Eight Immortals County City as hostages to threaten him.

Though truly despicable, Wise and Virtuous King didn't care; he wanted Ling Xiao to become his loyal lackey and Yue Fanghua as his woman.

In Wisdom Sage King Mansion, he witnessed Yue Fanghua's strength. He knew very well what possessing Yue Fanghua meant.

He also saw Ling Xiao's strength and understood what it meant to subdue Ling Xiao.

So he didn't mind despicable actions; he intended to put Ling Xiao in a bind.

As for the battle suggestion from Water Elder, it didn't fit his plan; why would he do something so foolish?
