Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Faced with the Emperor of Daqian in such a state, Ning Wang's expression also became agitated, unlike his usual calm.

This imperial city held too many profound memories for him.

He was born here, grew up here, left behind joy, left behind tears, left behind sorrow, once lived here, and once died here.

Since that bloody night many years ago, the Ning Wang who once did not contend for imperial power had died, replaced by the Ning Wang who had become ambitious for the sake of revenge and protection!

Ning Wang's feelings for this city were complex.

His feelings for certain people in this city were also complex. Apart from that deep-seated hatred, there was probably something else besides the hatred.

Jun Wuxie had keen insight and saw it very clearly, but he did not speak. He just sat quietly with Jing Ya on Lan Lan's back.

He knew that it was best for Ning Wang and the Emperor of Daqian to resolve their own issues.

After all, their relationship was not simply that of enemies and adversaries. First, they were father and son, and then they were adversaries.

"Wang'er, Father Emperor knows the bitterness and pain in your heart, and also knows that you blame Father Emperor for not stopping it back then. That night, Father Emperor was completely unaware. When Father Emperor received the news, it was a foregone conclusion, and there was no way to turn things around..."

The Emperor of Daqian's face was full of heartache and helplessness, his voice sincere and full of emotion.

"Let's not talk about whether you knew or not. What did you do afterward? Did you care? They are all your children. Why could he attack me, kill my son, and not pay any price?"

"Wang'er ah," the Emperor of Daqian sighed, and said, "Father Emperor is the current Emperor. It is difficult to avoid disputes between you princes. You were too naive back then, which is why you ended up like that. Since things have already happened, what can Father Emperor do? After all, he is the Crown Prince..."

"In the end, the Crown Prince is very important in your heart, and the other princes have no weight in your heart. You watched, condoned the fratricide, are you worthy of being a father? Are you such a person worthy of being an Emperor?"

Speaking to this point, Ning Wang's voice became more and more indifferent, and his attitude became more and more tough, "Today, I, Ning Wang, am at the city, and I want you, the fatuous Emperor, to step down from the throne! The master of Daqian should be replaced!"

"You..." Upon hearing these words, the Emperor of Daqian's chest heaved violently a few times, and he angrily said, "Wang'er, why can't you be more clear-headed? Are you really going to be blinded by hatred? Even if you blame Father Emperor for not giving you fairness and justice back then, you must always remember, what is Daqian's surname! What if Father Emperor yields the throne to you? You are Father Emperor's son, and it would not be a problem for you to sit on the throne. But the problem now is that you are being used by someone surnamed Jun! Think about it carefully. If you capture the imperial city, will Daqian still be surnamed An from now on? I'm afraid it will have to be changed to Jun, right?"

"Things have already developed to this point, and you still want to sow discord! Lord Jun, he is originally the guardian deity of Daqian. If Lord Jun were not guarding the border city, the Wu'an army would have already driven straight in, the iron cavalry would have already traversed the rivers and mountains of Daqian, and this imperial city would have already become Wu'an's possession!"

Ning Wang looked coldly at the Emperor of Daqian from afar, his voice becoming more and more indifferent: "All of you can live well here because Lord Jun is guarding the border passes, otherwise, last year, you people would have already become corpses under the Wu'an iron cavalry! It's fine if you don't feel grateful, but you even dare to slander Lord Jun!"

"The Three Armies, listen to my order, prepare to attack the city!"

Ning Wang issued the order, and the eight million rune-armored elites possessed earth-shattering momentum.

On the eighty warships, the rune-armored elites were lined up in formations, and the cavalry, infantry, and archers all moved.

The imperial city's garrison trembled all over. Faced with such a formation, feeling the bloody aura sweeping over like a torrent, their minds could not help but tremble.

They were very clear that it was impossible to defend this city. Even without the terrifying Jun Wuxie, these rune-armored elites from the border city, who had experienced hundreds of battles, could sweep across the imperial city and the surrounding cities.

"Wait!"

The Emperor of Daqian's face was gloomy, and he hurriedly shouted.

He was very clear that once the city was attacked, the imperial city would be breached, and it would be impossible to defend it.

At that time, everything would be over.

He was unwilling, how could he just bury the dynasty's foundation like this?

"Surrender, and I will allow you to drink your sword and commit suicide!"

Although Ning Wang had滔天hatred in his heart, when facing the current Emperor, he was still unwilling to personally take his life.

No matter what, that was his Father Emperor.

Even for a ruthless person like Ning Wang, who was decisive in killing, he was unwilling to commit patricide.

"Wang'er, you are really ruthless..."

The Emperor of Daqian's face was full of悲怆, and there was a glimmer of tears in his old eyes, and he said: "Since you said so, it seems that you still know that Father Emperor is your father, and you are unwilling to personally commit patricide. You want to force Father Emperor to commit suicide. Okay, ruthless enough. Since things have developed to this point,朕has nothing to say. I only hope that you can give朕a few more days to let朕arrange the affairs of the royal family properly, and then take a look at everything that朕has possessed for a lifetime but is about to lose."

His face was full of落寞, and his voice was full of the悲凉of a一代king heading towards decline.

The entire city was silent, and their moods became extremely heavy.

The sky was about to change!

They felt panic because they heard that Ning Wang and Jun Wuxie were both very凶残狠辣people, killing people without blinking an eye, like demons.

What kind of disaster would such people bring them when they led their troops into the city?

Many merchants in the city were no longer in the mood to do business, and they closed their shops one after another, began to count their assets and money, and prepared to run away, leave here, and avoid disaster.

"What about a few days later? Royal Grandfather, the mansion is about to collapse, your days are numbered, don't struggle anymore, and don't hold any wishful thinking."

Anning spoke lightly. She knew this person, Royal Grandfather, too well. He must be planning something in his heart.

"Anning, Royal Grandfather is talking to your Father Wang, you must not interrupt." The Emperor of Daqian said, his face no longer with that kind of悲凉and落寞, replaced by the posture of a superior, "No one is qualified to take朕's life,朕's life can only end in his own hands! Wang'er, a few days later, Father Emperor will fulfill you and give you the result you want!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Wang's face showed a complicated expression, and he was about to speak.

"Father Wang!"

Anning stopped him, shook her head at him, and signaled him not to agree.

"Anning, respect your Father Wang's wishes."

Jun Wuxie said calmly, and Anning immediately quieted down. Since Lord Jun had spoken, then even if Royal Grandfather really played tricks, it was not important.

"I promise you, I will give you a few more days. This is your last chance to miss this city. I hope you will not be obsessed!"

Ning Wang said coldly.

The Emperor of Daqian did not speak again, turned around and left with the people around him, and soon disappeared from sight.

Ning Wang faced the direction of the imperial palace in the imperial city, not knowing what he was thinking.

Anning sighed secretly.

She knew that in the end, Father Wang was still thinking about that trace of father-son relationship, which made him hesitant and indecisive at this time when he should not hesitate and be soft-hearted.

This is a fatal mistake for marching and fighting.

But Lord Jun agreed, and she couldn't stop it.

"Don't blame your Father Wang. Some things have been accumulated in his heart for thousands of years. It is not so easy to untie the knot, especially when the object is your Royal Grandfather. With me here, no matter what happens, it will be enough to deal with it."

Jun Wuxie传音to Anning. He saw deeper than Anning. Perhaps it was because he had experienced more of the world, so he could better understand Ning Wang's complex emotions.

So far, he is still guarding the last trace of blood relationship, so some things, he can hardly face his own heart.

In the end, the last trace of thought must be broken in front of his eyes before he can truly come out of it.

......

The entire imperial city was so quiet that it was not working. Since the establishment of this city, it has never been as quiet and depressing as it is now.

Everyone in this city has a sense of suffocation, and a large cloud of haze is shrouded in their hearts, only feeling that the world in front of them is gray.

The city will be broken, what kind of fate awaits them?

They are afraid, they are afraid, and they are at a loss.

Many people with better conditions have begun to clean up all their assets and money. They can no longer stay, they may die, and fleeing here is imminent.

Many officials in the city have also begun to pack their bags, preparing to flee the dynasty at any time.

......

Inside the imperial palace, in the imperial study, the Emperor of Daqian sat upright, his face full of anger.

There were many broken things on the ground, all of which he had smashed.

Many old men were sitting in the imperial study, and several of them looked dignified. Looking at the Emperor of Daqian like this, there was even anger in their eyes.

"There are only a few days left. I don't know how far the strong men of the Three Sects are from Qingzhou, and when will they be able to arrive!"

The Emperor of Daqian's voice was low. This was the reason why he used the last trace of kinship in Ning Wang's heart to delay the time, and wanted to wait for the strong men of the Hanzhou Three Sects to arrive.

At that time, they can be caught in one fell swoop.

The person surnamed Jun is here, and Ning Wang and Anning are also here.

"According to the content of their符信that you received last time, they should arrive in Qingzhou in these few days. We can write符信, and they will definitely speed up after receiving it. Although the transmission speed of our符信is not fast, we should try to let them arrive earlier."

An old man with white hair and beard said this, and there was also the aura of an emperor between his demeanor.

"Old Ancestor is right!"

The Emperor of Daqian immediately responded. He did not dare to neglect these old men.

These are all his old ancestors, who have also sat on the throne of Daqian.

“The Ning King wants to fight me face to face? He's far from qualified. In the end, he's still my son. Has there ever been a son who could defeat his father? Of all the sons I've fathered, only this Ning King almost cost me my empire. He's a rebellious son. I should have never let him leave the imperial city alive back then. This time, once the experts from the Three Sects arrive, he can forget about living. I will personally behead this unfilial son!”

The Great Gan Emperor's eyes were filled with venom. No one could threaten his empire!

In the past, it wouldn't have mattered that his lifespan was limited. With his life force nearing its end, there was no use in forcing it.

But now, the pills bestowed upon him by the higher-ups of the Taiyi Sect had miraculous effects. They had almost completely repaired his hidden injuries, and his lifespan had been greatly extended.

He still had a long time to enjoy the feeling of holding power!

……

Rumble!

The next day, rumbling sounds came from the vicinity of the imperial city. Looking into the distance, dust billowed into the sky at the edge of the world.

“Your Majesty, it's the troops from the cities around the imperial city coming to defend the throne!”

A legion general hurriedly stepped forward to report the situation: “According to my understanding, there are more than four million troops in the surrounding area. Judging from the current momentum, it seems that all four million have come.”

“Take them down, and make it quick. Remember, try not to harm the soldiers. Use cavalry for a high-speed charge, break their formation, and strike straight at the heart. Seize the king while you have the chance.”

“Yes, I receive Your Majesty's decree!”

The commander of the cavalry regiment accepted the order and retreated to quickly make arrangements.

“Wu Xie, will we be living in this city in the future?”

Aunt Jing sat on Lan Lan's back, surveying the city.

As the imperial city of Great Gan, it was naturally the most magnificent of the thousands of cities in Great Gan, and its area was also the largest.

“No, I don't plan to continue choosing this place as the imperial city. I will establish the capital in Qingyun City, so that it will be closer to the old site of Qingyun Cave Heaven, and the entire Qingyun Sect can be moved back. After all, Qingyun will become the national sect in the future, so it can't be too far from the imperial city.”

“Returning to Qingyun?”

Jing Ya couldn't help but smile when she heard this.

No matter what, she had spent so many days on Qingyun's Zhenwu Peak, and she still liked it the most.

If it hadn't been for special reasons back then, they wouldn't have moved to the border city.

“Choosing Qingyun City is actually the best. Qingyun City has a suitable scale, and it's also relatively close to the Eastern Hengduan Mountains. Choosing this location will allow us to better defend against the creatures in the East Sea.”

Jun Wuxie could almost be certain that creatures from the sea would definitely land on the mainland in the future.

The East Sea and Qingzhou were separated by the Eastern Hengduan Mountains, with only the Tonghai Canyon as the only passage, which was also the only link connecting the sea and the mainland.

If the creatures of the sea wanted to come to the mainland, they had to enter through the Tonghai Canyon.

If the imperial city was chosen to be Qingyun City, if something happened to the territory near the Tonghai Canyon due to the sea clan creatures, they could quickly react.

“Qingyun City is indeed good, the geographical location and environment are excellent. The biggest problem is that there is no decent Holy Spirit Earth Vein under Qingyun City. Without a change to the environment, the future appearance of Qingyun City may be somewhat inconsistent with the identity of the imperial city…”

Jing Ya said this.

“The matter of the Holy Spirit Earth Vein is easy to solve. Although I don't have a Holy Spirit Earth Vein, I have a top-grade Dragon Vein. Isn't it easy to transform the environment?”

“Ah?” Jing Ya was taken aback, thinking she had misheard, and said, “What did you say? You have a top-grade Dragon Vein?”

“Yes, that's right.”

Jun Wuxie nodded with a smile. Jing Ya couldn't believe it, because it was too incredible.

There were thousands of Dragon Veins in the Upper Realm, after all, the starry sky was vast.

However, Dragon Veins were also divided into different grades.

Only Holy Spirit Earth Veins of the seventh grade or higher could evolve into Dragon Veins. These Dragon Veins were called Primary Dragon Veins.

Evolution to the eighth grade was called Intermediate Dragon Vein; evolution to the ninth grade was called Advanced Dragon Vein.

Top-grade Dragon Vein meant that its grade had reached the pinnacle of the ninth grade, and it could break through the Saint grade and transform into a demigod grade if it continued to evolve!

This kind of Dragon Vein was rare in the world and could only be encountered by chance.

In the starry sky, it was unknown how many ancient stars of life it would take to evolve a top-grade Dragon Vein.

“Where did you get a top-grade Dragon Vein? I can only say that your luck is too prosperous. To create a dynasty, you obtained a top-grade Dragon Vein in advance. With it, the future environment of the dynasty will undergo earth-shattering changes. Qingzhou will soon no longer be a place of sparse and depleted Holy Spirit Essence Qi, but will instead become a good place for cultivation!”

Jing Ya was happy for him. A top-grade Dragon Vein was of immeasurable value. From ancient times to the present, it was unknown how many Eternal Saint Realm experts had searched the starry sky and could hardly find one, but now it had fallen into Wu Xie's hands.
